"I am not a fan of books. I would never want a book's autograph. I am a proud non-reader of books. I like to get information from doing stuff like actually talking to people and living real life."
These are the words of Kanye West -- and I'd like him to know that books don't actually sign autographs, authors do -- who obviously feels that being a non-reader is something to brag about. I feel like saying, "Dude, 'doing stuff' is cool, but you kinda have to also read books to learn about...
Back in 2004, Josh Brolin was arrested for spousal battery against his wife, actress Diane Lane. Charges were dropped when both parties called the incident a "misunderstanding." I can't tell you how many times I've mistakenly walked into a fist. Please. Since then, I've never liked Brolin. Then this weekend I was watching Milk and Josh Brolin killed Harvey Milk so now I really, really hate him. And the newest? It looks like he may have cheated on his wife.

Michael Lohan continues his trail of crazy. On March 18th, after his fiancee broke up with him again, he called her and threatened to kill her and himself. Apparently the dummy didn't know that murder-suicide threats are kind of against the law.
He wasn't arrested until April 6th (This picture of them was taken on April 1st -- so post-threat and pre-arrest.) and appeared in court yesterday. His lawyer appeared on his behalf to answer the charges that could land Lohan in jail for a year. ...
I had trouble finding celebrity quotations supporting today's Supreme Court decision but I'll be happy to post them tomorrow if you know of any. Email me!
"They decided to be indecisive. It was a ruling that doesn't resolve anything because there is still inequality. It's like [George Orwell's Animal Farm] — some pigs are more equal than other pigs. We're more equal than some of the other gays and lesbians."Star Trek alum George Takei, referring to his still-legal marriage in the state of California."That's just awful. I mean when you see places like Iowa saying yes and there's now five states [in favour] in America…and California is supposed to be a progressive state it just defies logic to me and I’m very disappointed with that."Elton John to Access Hollywood [Five states? Really?]"Today the California Supreme Court decided to uphold Prop 8, outlawing gay marriage in California. This really makes me sad. I thought we were more forward thinking than this, and I'm disappointed in the Supreme Court for being so closed minded. Everyone.. gay, straight, bisexual, transgendered, EVERYONE should have equal rights to marry who they want to. I have many gay friends and all I want is for them to be happy, yet this is just another obstacle in their way. Now they must continue fighting to be granted a basic civil right that many people take for granted. Shame on you, California! We must all continue to fight the h8!"Kim Kardashian on her blog."So, will anyone be sleeping better tonight? Those full of hate and fear will surely be disappointed that 18,000 same sex couples
will be living in wedded bliss, kissing their spouses goodnight, checking off those little ' married ' boxes on all those forms we fill out nowadays. That’s really going to drive them crazy. Then there are those of us like me who still dangle in ' domestic partnership. ' We can adopt our own children, but we can’t bring our partners who might be citizens from out of the country, here. We can’t file joint tax returns. I could go on. Who will be happy tonight? How do I explain this to my children? Well, you know Ellen? She is married but Mommy and I are not. That is liberty and justice for all? I am hopeful as I see more and more states turn to the inevitable future of equality, California will get there. Change takes time."Melissa Etheridge, in a released statement."Marriage is worth protecting because it is the way we teach the next generation: children need mothers and fathers. This victory for Prop 8 is a victory for children, for civil rights, and for the common good." Maggie Gallagher, president of the National Organization for Marriage"This just should invigorate people to get it back on the ballot in 2010 and 2012 and every two years until all people are allowed a basic civil right."George Clooney, to E!
And my personal favorite?
"No comment."Miss California USA, Carrie Prejean. />I had trouble finding celebrity quotations supporting today's Supreme Court decision but I'll be happy to post them tomorrow if you know of any. Email me!

You have to watch the video of this interview Lady Gaga did with an Australian news site.
She's alternately nice and bitchy, basically tells the interviewer she's an idiot, and says there is only one thing a man can offer her -- and it better be sizable. And yeah, it is what you think so you might not want to play this video if you're at work....
I'm just going to say it. How did someone with Tori Spelling's bone structure produce such a cute child? I've seen pictures of Tori as a baby...she was tragic looking. Could one-year-old Stella already be getting surgery? Was she a patient at the Romper Room Rhinoplasty Clinic? Oh, you know I'm just kidding! I just feel thankful that Tori's husband Dean obviously and mercifully possesses all the dominant genes.
Tori was at the pool this weekend with that obviously adopted adorable child...
Not just as a parent but just as a general human being, it breaks my heart to report this.
CNN is reporting that Mike Tyson's 4-year-old daughter Exodus has died from her injuries after an accidental strangling via treadmill cable yesterday.
Why do things like this happen? I don't know what the lesson is.
Prayers, thoughts and strength sent out to their entire family.
Thanks, Shanna....
And their lovechild has graced the cover of Brooke Hogan's new album cover, The Redemption.
I stared at this picture for an interminable amount of time just trying to see some element of Brooke in it. I am now going to spray an entire can of FDS into my eyes in hopes of trying to reverse some of the damage....
O.J. Simpson has filed an appeal of his conviction with the state of Nevada. He whined that there wasn't a fair representation of race on his jury, and that there were problems with judicial misconduct and errors in sentencing.
In other news, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman have also filed an appeal, seeking a second chance at their lives. They claim they were unfairly treated when slashed to death by O.J., left on a doorstep and they also claim that the jury members who let O.J. go i...
I never understood Beet's dislike for Mandy Moore but I'm starting to get it. She -- Mandy, that is -- is kind of an idiot.
In a new People magazine interview, and I don't know why they are talking to her to begin with --some nonsense about a new album she's releasing that no one is going to buy -- like zOMG, Mandy just can't believe she got married! "It still feels not entirely real. Things are wonderful, and there's such a peaceful settledness [She couldn't have said "contentment"?]...
In January, when Katy Perry and her boyfriend Travis McCoy broke up, she announced that she was going to be celibate for a year. Don't we all say that when relationships go horribly wrong? Well I don't -- I like to get my rebounds underway as soon as possible, but whatever -- most people swear off sex when they are jaded. Perry and McCoy reunited and though she now claims that she'd rather die than be celibate for a whole year, she won't be having any random encounters.
According to Perr...
I fully admit I was never a faithful Jon & Kate Plus 8 viewer. I had seen a couple episodes and had quickly determined that Kate was a controlling wench of a wife. This weekend there was a Jon & Kate marathon on TLC. I obviously couldn't watch all of it because I do have kids of my own that need attention, but I did watch a lot of episodes and feel like I have a better picture of the Gosselin family. Oh, and I still think Kate is a controlling wench of a wife.
