POLICE FIND BODY OF FORMER GROWING PAINS STAR

Authorities in Vancouver, Canada announced last night they HAVE recovered the body of Andrew Koenig, who played Boner on Growing Pains. He was found 30 meteres from a footpath, in Stanley Park, by friends and family, who had launched their own private search. Stanley P was apparently one of his favorite places to go. His Dad, who played Chekov on Star Trek is saying he committed suicide, but police haven’t released the cause of death yet.

BACHELOR SCOOP - **PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN RISK**

*******SPOILER ALERT!!!***************

So as we’re gearing up for the big Bachelor Finale Monday night, I thought I’d give you 3 things.

KEEP IN MIND IT'S NEVER 100%


Ok- we’re hearing that Ali is DEFINITELY the Bachelorette and she will be “unveiled” during the After the Final Rose special.

We’re also hearing that at the After the Final Rose special (taped Sunday night), we see that….DRUMROLL…

Jake and Vienna ARE together and ARE ENGAGED!!!

Now, the big question, will it last? EVERYONE IS SAYING NO WAY, in fact, place your bets now that if they DID get engaged, they will be broken up by the time Ali's Bachelorette Season starts in May and he'll come back on to try to WOO her back!

It’s SOOOOOOOO NOT OVER FOR JAKE AND ALI!

GOD THE DRAMA!!!!!!! Happy watching on Monday!

TENLEY A MASTER MANIPULATOR?

Bachelor dish – The Ex husband of Tenley Ryan Natividad is going on record to say Tenley is NOT the Disney princess we think she is, that she’s actually obsessed with getting famous. He goes on to say she is a fantastic actress and a master of manipulation, far from the demure and innocent person she’s all fooling you to see. It’s pathetic and she’s pathetic. OUCH! Finale on Monday!

IS ELLEN A GIANT DIVA?

Ellen on the other hand, causing some ripples already, she brought in her own lighting crew bcause after Tuesday night, she saw close ups and was SHOCKED at how OLD she looked. She now gets special lighting and makeup and they keep her away from Kara so she doesn’t look even older (52)?? Do we believe??

PS- Another name to throw into the pile of Simon replacements – Jamie Foxx – Simon actually thinks he could get the gig.

IDOL CONTRACT LEAKED

Have you ever wondered how much these kids get paid? Well, I got it for ya, saw the contract from last year. When Kris Allen won last year, he got $100,000 JUST for saying I’m going to Disneyworld! – he also got a $350,000 advance for his first album. Adam Lambert got $300,000 for HIS album plus some extras. Any contestant who signs with the idol company 19 Entertainment has to give them 15% of what they make for 3 years…If they make the Top 12, they get basically a thousand bucks for every one-hour episode.

SNOOP HITS DAYTIME

Snoop Dogg is on One Life to Live today. "THRILL OF A LIFETIME"!

ONE AND A HALF MEN

Carlos Irwin Estévez (Charlie Sheen) checked himself into rehab yesterday, for approximately 2 weeks. Christmas Day, he allegedly threatened his wife with a knife, he’s been in before for drugs – now he’s doing it as a preventative measure, but will not disclose what kind of treatment. CBS SAYS their supporting the decision, so they’ll shut down taping for a bit- but this is now putting hundreds of jobs in jeopardy. PS- She’s ALSO in rehab (also for undisclosed reasons).


NOT SO LADY GAGA?

Member last year when the crazy rumor started going around that Lady Gaga had man parts? Well, in typical Gaga fashion, she’s taking it one step further. On the cover of the British magazine Q – she’s wearing tight black leather pants, and shimmied down one leg is a giant bulge. Gaga told the magazine, "We all know that one of the biggest talking points of the year was that I have a [male organ], so why not give them what they want?"

HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM

What do Hilary Swank, Angelina Jolie and Nicole Richie have in common? THEY FLY. Just 3 years ago, Nicole Richie was drunk out of her mind on a liquor/Vicodin combo and drove the wrong way on the freeway…now, she’s flying planes. Yep, last week she flew from NY to Montreal to promote her clothing line – said “OMG it was so much fun, I just hope everyone else on the flight felt the same way”.

Tuesday, February 23, 2010

THE WOMEN TOLD A LOT!!

Did you watch The Women Tell All last night?? The *&*& flew with Chris Harrison and Roslyn (scandal girl)- they got into a TOTAL FIGHT.

Not only did she deny having a romance with the producer, she also claimed the staffer told her Harrison flirted with the producer's wife during taping of a previous season. Harrison refused to comment on the allegation.

Rozlyn grew increasingly agitated during the special, as some fellow bachelorettes alleged they saw her have physical contact with the producer, who was fired from his job due to the rumors. She again insisted that it was a misunderstanding stemming from her use of his phone to call her son. Rozlyn admitted, however, that she's kept in touch with the producer.

Jake also made a BRIEF appearance and said he is happy with the woman he chose when production wrapped. As for who that woman is, we'll watch him decide between TENLEY and VIENNA on next Monday's finale. DRAMA!!

He was calling it the most shocking television scandal of 2010. Ummm, NO.

MIKE SEAVER WANTS TO FIND YOU BONER!

Kirk Cameron has released a statement about the disappearance of Andrew Koenig (Boner) in Vancouver. He said “Although I have not had contact with him for many years, I can remember many of the fun times we had on the set of Growing Pains” - Andrew, if you’re reading this, please call me. Mike and Boner could always work things out when they put their minds to it."

LENO'S LINEUP

Jay Leno is back Monday night for the re-vamped Tonight Show. His guests week one include: Jamie Foxx, Sarah Palin, cast of Jersey Shore, Avril Lavigne, Matthew McConnaughey and every medal winner in the states.

Oh baby Bieber…looks like Twitter campaigns really DO work. There was one called BieberonSNL – well, ta-dah, he’s now the musical guest April 10th. Ps, he was in Paris yesterday and caused a near riot with all the teen girls. Oh zut alors – c’est beaucoup des FILLES!!

GAGA'S LIPGLOSS BREAKING RECORDS

Do you wear MAC lipgloss? Well, if you want to sort of feel a touch like Lady Gaga- go buy her MAC lipgloss, Viva Glam- proceeds to the MAC Aids fund. You wouldn’t be alone, her version has outsold any launch in Viva Glam's 16-year history. And don’t worry, the color is actually pretty tame – pinky.

IDOL CENTRAL

Idol tonight 12 girls. Tomorrow 12 guys. Thursday 4 ppl go home and Kris Allen will sing Let it Be – proceeds to Haiti.

Monday, February 22, 2010

HILARY AND MIKE GET ENGAGED

HIL AND MIKE UP A TREE...

Hilary Erhard Duff is engaged to Mike Comrie. He’s 29, she’s 22, they were in Hawaii. Will she become an regular at West Ed now?

WHERE IS BONER??

Member Growing Pains? Member Mike Seaver’s best friend Richard “Boner” Stabone? Well, couple of things, he’s 41. Second – he (ANDREW KOENIG) has gone missing. He was visiting friends in Vancouver on Feb 14th and hasn’t been seen since. Drugs not involved, but the Vancouver police urge anyone with information regarding Koenig's whereabouts to call 911.

SEAN PENN TO THE PEN?

Back in October, a photographer was bugging Sean Penn, so he ran up to him and Hi-Ya karate chop kicked him, kinda in the face. Well, now he’s facing misdemeanor charges of battery and vandalism – and will be arraigned March 22nd. He faces up to 18 months in jail if convicted. (he’s already been to jail once for a month, for punching an extra in the face). Should he go to jail?

WILL TIGER SEE HIS SHADOW?

Tiger Woods is surfacing today, for 5 minute statement. It’s like he’s the groundhog – if he sees his shadow, there will be 6 more weeks of golf. – The MASSIVELY hyped press conference, 9 our time today. A lot of ppl are boycotting the event- including the 990 members of the Golf Writers of America – their board of directors voted unanimously to stay away, then when they heard he’s talking golf and won’t be taking any questions, most of the media decided to stay away. His statement will be broadcast on every major network. His agent Mark Steinberg and very large bodyguards have been instructed to shout down ANYONE (reporters) if they try to ask questions – which is actually more why ppl want to tune in.


JT = DIVA!

Justin Timberlake is causing major Dram in NYC this week (fashion week) –On Wednesday night, he forced everyone working on his William Rast show to sign a GAG order – stating that they WOULD NOT gossip about him WHATSOEVER, then 3/4ths of the entire site was a closed set to just him, so the crew had to dress the 31 models in a teeny tiny space, causing tempers to flare. Clearly this reporter did NOT sign the gag order cuz he reported this to the NY Post.

IS JAKE REALLY AN ACTOR?

DID YOU HEAR the Bachelor news? Bachelor finale is March 1st – get this…In Touch Weekly is reporting that Jake Pavelka is much more calculating than the timid, gosh golly gee pilot we see. They’re saying, he’s using this show to jump start his failed acting career (Hmmm), that he used the name Jake Landrum and he even had an appearance on Walker Texas Ranger and that MANY people feel he’s gay, that he doesn’t even end up with ANYONE on the show.

Thursday, February 18, 2010

TIGER TO TALK...SORT OF

As I am sure you’ve heard by now, Tiger Woods is going to surface tomorrow for a quick press conference. They’re saying don’t settle in though, it’ll be quick, to a SMALL group of close associates, and he will NOT be taking any questions.

THE BACHELOR SECRETS REVEALED...

We all THINK The Bachelor is rigged/scripted- - well, I have a scoopage that pretty much solidifies that.

#1- The Bachelor contestant GIA ALLEMAND seemed to have had a backup plan in case she didn't win the show. A New York restaurant owner (Lavatola) DOMINICK PIERNO claims to the New York Post that he has been her boyfriend for the past two years and that this was for exposure. I almost want to say DUH!

#2- Now the other scoop (not the biggest secret) Is Ali the next Bachelorette? Well, her contract hasn’t been signed yet but all signs point to yes. So last week when she “called” Jake from San Fran, she actually was still in LA, and it happened right after she “quit the show”. We're hearing that there were SO many inconsistencies- when he picked up he was wearing shorts, then on the phone was wearing jeans. Then when she was on Ellen, she was pretending to go along with it - Probably will be made official in the next 7-10 days, if not at the “Women Tell All” that taped. 6 figures, They’ll start filming mid-March for a May premiere- just like Jillian’s season.


OSCAR CHANGES CONTINUE

March 7th, Oscars. Already causing some controversy because they expanded the Best Pic category from 5-10. No songs will be performed this year, the nominees have also been instructed to prepare 2 separate acceptance speeches, a short one for the televised program and a long one for the backstage press conference. AND finally- they’ve also been told they can’t cry!!!


JON MAKES NICE

Let me just say I’m sorry- we’ve really gone a LONG time without any Jon Gosselin talk. He’s been talking though – and apparently has made up with TLC. No more lawsuits, so does this mean more TV?

SURI'S A HIGH ROLLER!

Suri Cruise just got a new purse. Us Weekly reports miss Suri, 3 years old was recently spotted carrying an 850 dollar Salvatore Ferragamo "Sofia" handbag while boarding a helicopter in Jamaica.

DWTS RUMORS CONTINUE...

Dancing With the Stars comes back March 22nd, Pam Anderson, John Stamos and Jennifer Grey from Dirty Dancing in the running, rumor mill. The names of the celebrities participating will be announced during the season finale of The Bachelor on March 1st.

Wednesday, February 17, 2010

NEW COUPLE ALERT

New couple alert- Avril Lavigne and Brody Jenner? Not sure about this, I think he’s just trying to get a free Canon camera.

OPRAH - SEE VIDEO BELOW (GROAN)

Oh Oprah, what did you do now? On Friday’s Oprah Live show she had Saints QB Drew Brees on for the big SB win. So, if you haven’t seen the video, which is on the blog – it’s cringeworthy, the minute he sits down, she gets up and says – Oh someone must have been kissing you – and tried to rub the BIRTHMARK off his face. OMG!! Could someone have not TOLD her right before he went on?? Do you think someone got in TROUBLE when they broke for commercial?

EUBANKS LEAVING JAY

Kevin Eubanks is leaving Jay Leno’s side. He says he wants to focus on recording music and touring, but there’s a bit of speculation he’s just had it. Guess how old he is? 52?! Now, he will be on the first Tonight Show March 1st, but beyond that, status unknown. Rumor is that Hootie (Darius Rucker) is the new Eubanks.

CW RENEWING EVERYTHING

Shows getting renewed for next season: The Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl, 90210, Supernatural and America’s Next Top Model. No word on Smallville, One Tree Hill and Melrose.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T OPRAH!

EVERYONE WATCHED

Olympics opening ceremony- In the US- 32.6 million viewers, the largest audience for a non-U.S. Winter Olympics opening since Lillehammer. Canadian: The most watched broadcast event in Canadian history. 23 million tuned in at some point, 13.3 million ppl watched every minute of it. (69% of the population tuned in at some point). Is anyone else disturbed by the short track speed skating uniforms? I couldn’t watch!

PS CONGRATS ALEX BILODEAU - GOLD FOR CANADA!!

TOO FAT TO FLY?!?

Director Kevin Smith (Clerks, Mallrats, Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike) was kicked off a plane for being too fat. (PS- he’s wearing an Oiler’s jersey in all the press photos around this!) So the story is, Kevin got on a Southwest Airlines flight from Oakland to Burbank. Just as he was seated, the pilot ordered to have him removed, for the “safety of other customers”, cuz he was too heavy?!?! (worth noting, he always buys 2 seats…but since this flight was overbooked, only ONE was available and they thought he posed a risk). Kevin immediately went on Twitter and his podcast saying they treated him worse than a terrorist – and now Southwest is issuing their heartfelt apologies. Smith says he was able to put both armrests down and buckle his seatbelt, which is the standard Southwest typically uses to determine if a flyer needs to purchase a second seat. Southwest is working to make amends. The airline also added that it had accommodated Smith on a later flight, provided him with a $100 voucher and apologized by phone.”

I’LL TAKE THAT BAG!

Wanna buy Oprah’s wardrobe? Oprah is cleaning out her cluttered closet, and you can get in on the action. Queen O sifted through her massive walk-in and settled on 150 items to auction on eBay starting March 1st. A Bottega Veneta bag (which her producer says was a great piece but “too small” for Oprah’s frame), red suede peep-toe Prada heels (size 9) etc etc etc…

HOW LONG WOULD YOU SURVIVE?

How many days do you think you’d last on Survivor? Strategy? Heroes vs Villains starts tonight (2 hours) – Season 20 in Samoa. (started May 2000). No Richard Hatch, but we will see Colby, Jerry and Boston Rob. PS- Russell, one of the VILLAINS, was just on Season 19, so technically he only had 10 days before he left again.


THE NEW CHARLIE'S ANGELS

So it looks like Drew Barrymore wants to remake Charlie’s Angels (the TV show). They’re VERY interested in them be “even more progressive in terms of racial background,” they want Rihanna to play one of the angels, they’re also looking to cast a gay male angel.

KEN COMES TO TOY STORY 3!

Look at the NEW character coming to Toy Story 3 (June 18, 2010) – To be voiced by Michael Keaton, he's one of 14 newbies that will be rolled out over the next few weeks.

MORE SIMON REPLACEMENT RUMORS

American Idol rumors for the new Simon Cowell - - we’re hearing Howard Stern (not likely)…now a new name has surfaced, Conan O’Brien. Looks like Fox executives have already put out feelers about the possibility of Conan joining the team – thinking he’d be a huge draw with all the controversy. You know, I REALLY don’t think this will happen and he technically can’t even TALK until the fall.

ALI WILL BE BACK ON BACHELOR

Some people think this season of the Bachelor is horrible, but it’s getting the best ratings yet – 13 mill watched Monday night. I know a lot of you have emailed me for scoops – well this one I’ll share right now. Ali who quit the show last week – might come back. We saw in the preview that she calls him while he’s in St Lucia and if this is correct…it’s DEFINITELY not over between them. I’m also hearing if it is, she’s the next in line to be the Bachelorette. It’s a giant recycle bin!
LINDSAY IS JESUS?

Lindsay Lohan is on the cover of a French fashion magazine, called Purple, as Jesus??!!
Plunging long-sleeved white outfit, arms outstretched, in a pose resembling the crucifixion. She’s also wearing a headdress which looks like a crown of thorns. She’s hoping we will now take her seriously.


CARRIE UNDERWOOD JOINS SESAME STREET!

Carrie Underwood just became a recurring character on Sesame Street. Carrie Underworm, a tiny little worm with a shiny blonde wig, makes her debut tomorrow…then she’ll be back in March and April.

THE BIG SB

Well the Saints beat the Colts last night at the Superbowl, Betty White got sacked and The Who lip synced. I think that pretty much sums it all up. Oh, in case you missed seeing all the commercials, Ian's posted a link to Facebook and Twitter!

SB –Lots of celebs on hand. Brad Pitt rode into the stadium on a golf cart while Ashton and Demi tried to avoid the cameras as they paced the sidelines before the game got underway. Tom Cruise on the other hand entered the stadium through the main entrance.

The Who- I say Who Cares?? Green lasers and ample lip synching. I love that the review says “The only two surviving members of the original band lineup were joined onstage by…Ringo Starr’s son Zak on drums”. Oh PS – apparently the BEP were mad they didn’t get asked. They’re available – for everything!!

CONGRATS TO DEAR JOHN!

Dear John: congratulations on ending Avatar's winning streak. It earned 32.4 million dollars while Avatar brought in 23.6. Considering it was SB weekend, that’s actually still really good.

HOWARD THE NEW SIMON? NOT YET...

On Friday, we were hearing that Howard Stern might be Simon Cowell’s replacement for Idol next year. Now, a source is merely saying that he’s in the running, but that no one has been offered the job yet. Not sure about Stern…odd choice? Some feel it’s all a ploy to get him more money on his current contract.

AN OPRAH BABY!

A woman from Toronto went into labor on Oprah Thursday in Chicago. Lori McCrindle’s water broke in the bathroom during a commercial break. Oprah stopped taping, ran from the set to help her get into the ambulance. Justin was born 45 mins later but Lori was just mad cuz she missed the rest of the show, but O promised to fly her back for another one. O is calling the whole thing a doozy.

TAYLOR STRETCHES OUT!

Taylor Lautner will want to keep working out, he was just cast to play Stretch Armstrong in 3D. March 2012. He’s busy, he has 2 more Twilight movies to make PLUS another Superhero movie Max Steel.

Friday, February 5, 2010

CAUSE OF DEATH RELEASED

We now know what caused Brittany Murphy’s death on Dec 21st. Pneumonia and prescription drug intoxication. The coroner is saying although the death was ACCIDENTAL, but the injury occurred BECAUSE of the drug intake. He also factored in iron-deficiency anemia. More details will be released in 2 weeks.

STERN THE NEW SIMON?


Fox executives want Howard Stern to be the new Simon Cowell on American Idol. They know he would be great TV and would clash with Ellen. It all started when he repeatedly mentioned on-air that his exclusive radio deal expires next January and he was open to other offers. "We believe this is a ploy to make Sirius pay up and keep him on his huge contract, but who knows?"

SUPERBOWL XLIV

The Big SB is Sunday night, we have Man of the Year vs Man on a Mission. The game will be broadcast in 232 countries, with a worldwide audience of over a billion people!

So for those who don’t care about football - Carrie Underwood will be singing the National Anthem (she's SO scared she'll mess up!), DID YOU KNOW, she’s actually the 3rd American Idol in a row to do it- Jennifer Hudson last year and Jordin Sparks the year before...Oh Ps, she's picking the Saints to win...BECAUSE the coach Sean Peyton went to one of her shows.

Queen Latifah is singing America the Beautiful and although she's a big Colt's fan, she wants to see the underdogs (Saints) win. OH GOD, if we’re lucky we might see (in the pre-game show) a version of Pants on the Ground – by Queen and Carrie!

Halftime show- The Who (CSI medley) will probably be safe – but watch for protesters (against Pete Townshend’s 2003 child pornography arrest)…

One more thing you’ll want to know…if the Saints DO win Sunday, Reggie Bush will propose to Kim Kardashian. That’s APPARENTLY the deal they made. I personally think he just said it to get her off his back, but as the season went on – YIKES! She already has the ring picked out!

AFTER the big SB, we can all settle in for the show Oprah’s going crazy for – Undercover Boss. CEO’s do regular jobs, to fit in and really see what messes they’ve created.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

LINDSAY’S A HOARDER

Lindsay Lohan is a hoarder. HOARDER. Cameras were (for the first time) let into her house and we see some pretty disturbing stuff (it’ll be on the insider). Almost a thousand pairs of shoes, heaping piles of clothes, bags, I’ll post the pic of just the shoes on the blog. Oh, you’ll also learn that Lindsay wants her own show, just like the View, but geared towards teens, because she can relate to young girls. Will this fly?

PAM AND HER COCONUTS

Pam Anderson, Dancing With the Stars. YEP…She’s really wanted ot be on the show, they really wanted her on the show, so let’s look for Pam in all her glory on March 22nd. We’ll find out who else made it, during the season finale of the Bachelor, March 1st.

MADGE AND HER COCONUTS

Do we think Madonna looks GOOD for 51? How about Demi Moore or Matthew McConnaughey? Well, wanna know their secret to the fountain of youth? Coconut water. Made from the clear juice of young, green coconuts. She replaced COFFEE with it and sunk 1.5 million into it – VitaCoco is what we all want. Lowers cholesterol, boosts your metabolism and immune system.

RUSSELL SAYS CLOTHING OPTIONAL!

Russell Brand has some VERY interesting ideas for his wedding to Katy Perry. He’d like clothing to be optional, for everyone. They haven’t set a date, ppl are now placing bets as to if it’s even real, or a giant publicity stunt.

LINDSAY LOHAN'S MESS!!


People are concerned she might be a "hoarder". Thoughts??

OSCAR SNUBS!

With Oscar nominations now out, people are scurrying around talking about the big snubs and predictions. Seems the consensus is that Brad Pitt should have been nominated for Inglorious Basterds, everyone from Nine, except for Penelope Cruz got the snub, Meryl Streep cuz she didn’t get 2 (greedy) and then the big one is that Clint Eastwood, and Academy darling wasn’t nominated for his movie Invictus (Best Pic, Best Director). The other story is that Avatar and Hurt Locker are tied with 9 noms and that’s James Cameron and Catherine Bigelow, who are exes. (Oh and PS Catherine is only the 4th woman to ever be nominated for Best Director).

"THE SITUATION", TRADEMARKED

Mike the Situation from Jersey Shore wants to get trademarked. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office received a 6-page application to trademark the words: "The Situation." Not only does he want cologne, but the Situation bathing suits, tank tops, bathrobes, tracksuits and tuxedos. (remember the A-Ha Moment Oprah, Paris That’s Hot)

TAYLOR'S MOMMA SAID BUH-BYE!

Ok, so member last week we discussed Taylor Swift dating John Mayer? And how this week she’s into Cory Monteith from Glee? Well, GLEEKS, you can thank Taylor’s momma, Andrea for the John Mayer breakup. Apparently, when she was backstage at the CMT special, she picked up a copy of the new Rolling Stone- saw him shirtless and talking about dirty things, and forbid her from seeing him again!

JOE JONAS...THE ACTOR?

Joe Jonas is getting his acting on – gonna guest star on Brothers and Sisters, he’ll play a young Balthazar Getty’s character Tommy Walker, in a 2 episode arc.
