"Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before. You can fight it, you can do nothing but scream about what you've lost, or you can accept that and try to put together something that's good."
- Elizabeth Edwards, Resilience
After fighting a long battle with cancer, Elizabeth Edwards, wife of disgraced politician John Edwards, has passed away. Elizabeth lost the battle with cancer today at the age of 61.
Despite the fact that Edwards had...
Here's just reason 9,482 that I think Khloe Kardashian is a loud-mouthed asshole.
Khloe, as depicted by the above video, was a guest on a recent airing of Lopez Tonight, and discussed her many issues with flying these days and the invasiveness that is the TSA.
Now, I know that there's a lot of controversy as of late about the full-body screenings and how it icky makes some people feel - some of them have, you know, what they feel to be pretty valid gripes about being 'exposed' in such a public manner, and that's alright. I can dig that some people are way more modest and private than others and feel that a full-body screening can be more than just an inconvenient invasion of privacy. Me, I could care less - I'm firmly of the belief that everyone's got the same parts, and even if they're missing a few, they'd still have the same parts if they were present. I really don't care, and if a full-body scan will deter psychos from trying to blow planes out of the sky or try take the damned thing over with a fourteen-inch machete, so be it. I'm all for it. I'm a nervous flier as it is, and I prefer to spend my time agonizing over whether or not that last bit of turbulence will be the kiss of death rather than debating the added stress of wondering whether or not the thing is going to be hijacked.
Anyway. Khloe's comment about being 'raped in public' is totally off base, and if you don't think so, let's go back to the Kristen Stewart 'being raped' by paparazzi thing, shall we? Because they're one and the same. You might not have been raped, and I might not have been raped, but unfortunately? There are people out there who have been raped, and listening to lard-ass Khloe Kardashian try to grunt intelligent-sounding words from marshmallow-stuffed cheeks about how she feels 'publicly raped' by the TSA probably don't feel all that good about it either.
Keep it closed while you're ahead, Khloe. I'm sure that your big, mean, nasty TSA inspector didn't like feeling you up any more than you liked being felt up. />

Jared Leto, lead singer for 30 Seconds to Mars, or as I prefer to remember him, Jordan Catalano on My So-Called Life, recently sat with Details magazine to dish on his desires to remain irresponsible, refrain from being tied down, and other general ambitions in life. The interview is pretty interesting, but I'm more captivated by the photo. Regardless of whether or not you think he's a cheesy cornball with anime tendencies and a flair for the whiny, you can't deny ... this is one beautiful man.

I'll let you in on a little secret: though I've protested - loudly - in the past about country music and how I had a deep-seated gag reflex for anything about its scene, I've had a change of heart. It's apparently growing on me. I downloaded a Lady Antebellum song a few weeks ago, and just the other night, Sugarland. I know it's pretty awful to say, when I formerly prided myself on my eclectic music tastes, but when you live somewhere for so long, I guess it begins to wear you down (and I'll ...

The ever-incandescent Amy Winehouse was photographed arriving in London this past weekend after another lengthy holiday in the Caribbean.
To Amy's credit, she's looking pretty good in these photos - the lack of makeup really shows what an attractive face she actually has, she's not as pallid bone-white as she normally is, and even though her boobs are way top heavy for her scrawny bottom, she's classic Amy and she's alive. There are no crack pipes hanging out of her mouth and Blake is no...

If you haven't heard already, Josh Duhamel - or Fergie's lapdog - was removed from an aircraft this past Thursday for violating flight protocol. Apparently Josh thinks himself as something of an exception to that whole 'please turn off electronic devices while we try to get this 150-ton hunk of scrap metal off the ground, OK' thing because when asked to turn his phone off, he said, 'No thank you,' and continued texting.
When Josh - or 'John,' as People.com refers to him in the top tab as...

“Things were so unhealthy and unhappy for both Jordan and me, I knew I had to end it. I really didn’t want to hurt Jordan, and I felt torn about splitting our family up. … When you’re unhappy in your marriage, your children are the ones who suffer.”
I'm also sure that it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that she, one morning, woke up in a sweaty, feverish, and sober realization that she married the offspring of Steven Spielberg and a reject Muppet, just without all of the...
Here's Britney Spears' take on allegations that recent audio tapes of a conversation between her and ex-husband Jason Alexander surfaced. The tapes allegedly portray Britney telling Alexander that her current boyfriend, Jason Trawick, 'beats on her' and gives her black eyes when she's bad, and even when she's 'eatin' them French fried potaters.'
I heard the audio snippets over on Radar Online (here if you want to listen to them), and really? Total crock of bullshit if you ask me, and fra...
