Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Dr. Jay McGraw?

Last night noted surgeons (think cast of E! TV's Dr. 90210) appeared at the Roxbury Surgical Association Fall Celebration.  I need to let that sink in...that such an event actually exists.   Anyway, Dr. Phil's son "Dr. Jay McGraw" was there.  Doctor?  Since when?  The pap sites have these photos tagged as Dr.Jay McGraw with his wife, Playboymodel Erica (who could use a little facial feminization procedure herself).  I want to see some fucking documentation on...

Jerry Lewis: Old and Offensive

    Jerry Lewis has uttered yet another anti-gay slur on TV.  Yesterday, while appearing on Australian TV, he called Cricket "a fag game" and did some prancing pantomime thing.  I need video of this!  Last September, he did something similar on his Muscular Dystrophy Association Labor Day Telethon.  You know, he's old.  And I want to make excuses for him because of that.  But there is no excuse.  Being 82 doesn't mean mean you get to be an ignorant, hate-spreading fuck.  He still doesn't get that calling people "fag"...

Kim Kardashian Celebrates Her 28th Birthday

KK assumed a natural for her pose as she blew out the sparklers on her cake.  Incidentally, apparently candles are passe now?  LAX Nightclub hosted her birthday party last night and served a cake with their name emblazoned across it and no mention of Kim's anywhere.  I feel a little embarassed for her.  I feel a lot embarassed for her sister Khloe.  She has absolutely no business wearing that dress anywhere...  And before you get all hysterical, I don't hate fat people.Ã...

Hudson Family Update

TMZ is reporting that the double homicide of Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother could have been motivated by a dispute over a car.  I don't know that there are many good reasons to commit murder but this would be especially senseless.  I'll post updates on this story as they become available. UPDATE 7:43 ET- Jennifer Hudson's sister Julia pled for the safe return of her son at Pleasant Gift Missionary Baptist Church in Chicago.  "All I ask, I don’t care who you are, just let my baby go. Please. I just want my son."  The little boy's stepfather, William Balfour, has not told police where the child may be. />TMZ is reporting that the double homicide of Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother could have been motivated by a dispute over a car.  I don't know that there are many good reasons to commit murder but this would be especially senseless.  I'll post updates on this story as they become available.

Madonna Sends Messages

It's difficult to write today.  I think the Jennifer Hudson story is such a senseless tragedy.  But the Beet goes on...  Being in a melancholy and somewhat depressed state of mind, I immediately thought of Madonna's face.  And her appearance continues to be hellacious.  But hey...she's been on tour, she's going through a divorce, lives on a treadmill and she's fifty.  She's entitled to look haggard.  I am, however, frequently bemused by Madge's staged and purpose-driven appearances.  Check out Lourde...

Spike TV’s 2008 Scream Awards Aptly Named

 Liv Tyler, Marilyn Manson and others appeared at the Spike TV's 2008 Scream Awards at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles last night.  I have fear issues regarding Liv Tyler.  She has the same fleshy lips as this girl who used to threaten my life on a daily basis when I was in junior high.  I'd see her in the hallway and say "hi"; she'd reply "fuck off."  She hung me on the coat hook in my locker once.  I eventually extended an olive branch and offered her ...

Colin Powell endorses Barack Obama

Republican and former US Secretary of State under President George W. Bush has endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama.  In a nutshell, he thinks John McCain is a bit unsure how to handle some challenges and Sarah Palin isn't ready to be president.  The full clip of Powell as he appeared on Meet the Press this morning.  Thoughts?

Peter Brady and Pot Head Barbie Still Together

Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry went to the Blush Nightclub 1 Year Anniversary party at WYNN Las Vegas last night.  I'm shocked that these two are still married.  Weren't they on Dr. Phil begging for a relationship rescue because Chris kept calling Adrianne the c word?  I guess they were able to work it out.  She still has big kneecaps though.  Random, I know.  Also, doesn't Mena Suvari look sweet with her fiance?  He looks like my first boyfriend...who was 12. [...

David Duchovny’s Close Friend Doesn’t Deny

Edit Pakay (pictured above, left), the 28 year-old tennis instructor and mid-life crisis to David Duchovny, is speaking out to The Daily Mail about their relationship.  What are the chances that Duchovny will ever take her call again? "We have a very, very close friendship. I don't want to be the third person in the marriage but I know it can be seen that way.  David and I are very close friends and we still play tennis together. He's an excellent player. He likes physically strong, fit women.  He is in great shape. He is a wonderful man." When asked directly if they had a sexual relationship, she repl...

Trudie Styler, Sting and Bill Clinton Honored

Last night was Oceana's 2008 Partners Award Gala held at the home of Jena and Michael King.  Trudie Styler, Sting and former President Bill Clinton were recognized for their work to help save our oceans. Hostess Jena King and actress January Jones wore marine themed shades of blue (or green depending on your monitor settings)...trite but at least not black!  If I had a celeb-like body, I'd wear taxicab yellow every day of my life.  Do Hollywood women now fear color as much as t...
