Jade Goody, whose funeral is scheduled to take place on April 4th, is literally not even in the ground yet, and they've already begun casting for the film about her life. The Mail Online reports that "earlier this week it was revealed that trustees of the 27-year-old reality TV star’s estate want to turn her second autobiography, Catch A Falling Star, into a movie."
Earlier this week? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Goody pass away just one week ago? That means that days after her death, her trustees were on the phone, not with the funeral home or grieving family members, but with producers and castin...
Authorities have released the transcripts to calls placed to emergency services by workers at the ski resort where actress Natasha Richardson fell and hit her head. The transcripts give a pretty detailed time line of what went on, noting that the resort staff called for an ambulance immediately after she took the spill, at about 1pm, but when medics arrived, there was no one to treat. Ten minutes later, the call was canceled because Richardson reportedly said she "felt fine" and refused treatment.
This is where the timeline gets a little confusing. The article says that t...
You'd never know it if you look at the numerous skin-deep attempts at philosophy he posts on his account, or the fact that his relationship with Jennifer Aniston ended in part due to his obsessive posting, but not only is John Mayer not addicted to Twitter, he told E! that he thinks it's "silly and dumb", and "one step away from sending pictures of your poop."
"It’s inherently silly and it’s inherently dumb," the singer told me last night at the One Splendid Evening benefit for the VH1 Sa...
In what may just be the best case of prophetic naming this TV season, NBC's reality cooking show Chopping Block has been, well, put on the chopping block. The show debuted March 12th and aired only 3 episodes before being cut from the lineup. NBC plans to run old episodes of Law & Order: Criminal Intent in its place.
Did anyone actually watch this show? I only knew it existed because Best Week Ever once lampooned how everyone on the show would incessantly make cheesey puns based on ...
Star Magazine is reporting that Angelina Jolie is contemplating giving a "sizeable donation" to octo-mom Nadya Suleman to help with childcare and medical costs:
Star has learned the actress is seriously considering donating thousands of dollars to the overwhelmed 33-year-old single mom, whose brood includes 2-month-old octuplets.
"Angelina is worried about the best interests of the kids," explains a source. "As a mom of six, she knows how chaotic and costly raising a big family can be."

Of all the people you could pick to stalk, why Shawn Johnson? Not that the inner workings of a stalker's mind are at all rational, but I've often wondered what it is that triggers these people to become fixated on random d-list celebrities.
Last week, Wendie posted about Robert O'Ryan being arrested while trying to sneak on to the set of Dancing with the stars in an attempt to meet up with 17-year-old wholesome as American flags wrapped in babies and baked in apple pie Shawn Johnson.

In the opening monologue of Tuesday night's Late Night with Douchebag Who Will Never Be As Awesome as Conan O'Brien,"Jimmy Fallon told a joke about an airport in Prague called the "Franz Kafka International Airport":
"A new study has ranked the Franz Kafka International Airport in Prague as the world's worst, due to long lines and lost luggage. It must be bad, because the second worst airport in the world? The Hudson River!"
The only funny thing about this "joke"-- aside from the irony that it crashed...
A couple of Natasha Richardson stories for you to get the weekend started off right. And because, unlike the undertaker, the media hasn't yet managed to suck every little bit of life's blood from her cold, dead body.
I give it about another two weeks before she stops popping up on Morning Express with Robin Meade.
First, an Ohio couple is crediting Richardson with saving their daughter's life. After the dad of the year whacked his daughter, Morgan, in the head with a baseball while playing ...
Dancing With the Stars "contender" Steve Wozniak might not get many more opportunities to wear sequins and tassels... at least not outside the bedroom. Woz, who was already handicapped by a broken left foot bone, pulled his hamstring at rehearsal on Friday.
It's not looking good that Steve will make it until Monday. He was spotted Friday night at a CVS pharmacy in Los Angeles "limping pretty badly," according to a source. When a female fan offered Woz a "good luck" on this Monday's show, he replied that he might be "off" by then and then limped away. "I hurt it today," Woz added.
Why not let hi...
Sunday's Monsters vs Aliens premiere was a veritable who's who of people you're not supposed to be attracted to, but probably are.
There were a few who walked the red (or rather, blue) carpet that would be considered mainstream-acceptably hot (Kiefer Sutherland, Paul Rudd, Reese Witherspoon). But there were just as many celebrities about whom many of you have probably had the occasional raunchy dream, but were too embarrassed to tell anyone. I can tell you from my own dreams that Seth Rogen ...

After I mentioned that I'm a sports fan, someone requested more gossip on sports celebrities, specifically hockey players. But until Sean Avery fucks up again, or puts out another video of him shopping for womens' handbags, you'll just have to satiate yourself by reading about the latest major league baseball player to shove the great American pastime even further into a needle-filled toilet...
Just in case you missed it, Rihanna was out and about earlier this week in Hollywood, sans sunglasses and bruises and she looks great. It must feel good to finally be able to take the sunglasses off. Let's just hope it's a metaphor for the larger situation, and better night vision isn't the only way in which she's seeing more clearly.
