As a child of divorce I can attest to how damaging a divorce can be to a child, especially if both parents don't make the child(ren) the primary focus. According to TMZ, Kimora Lee, the ex-wife of Def Jam/Phat Farm founder, Russell Simmons, is not interested in sharing custody of their daughters, Ming and Aoki. I understand that she filed for divorce in March and I don't believe their to be any truly bad blood between them, and with her soon to give birth to Djimon Honsou's child, why not share? I know that she was not in favor of Russell's new girlfriend, so what, move on with you Fabulous life! The only time a child(ren) should be kept from their parent is based on some sort of compromising/self-destructive behavior, and if Russell were exhibiting this kind of behavior, then Kimora would be justified. This just might end up becomming messy if Kimora chooses. For the girls, I sincerely hope not.
I am so deathly serious when I say that what comes around goes around, in that karma has a way of either uplifting you or giving you a savage beatdown. For Mr. Dourdan, beatdown is the appetizer, main course, and dessert, bon appetit! According to TMZ he is facing THREE felony counts for cocaine, heroin, and ecstasy possession. This is serious business, especially since he is not Lindsay Lohan and is a major tool. I take no delight in his misfortune, just merely highlighting that there is a way to treat people and showing and being grateful for your blessing should be automatic. We are never too old to learn, if we choose to. Gary will be in court on May 28th to face the charges.
Mischa Barton is one of the luckiest actresses in Hollywood as for one reason or another, her lack of talent and great timing has placed her in a pseudo-celebrity position. While in Australia, vacationing and visiting her mom, she happened to meet one of the more infamous paps, Jamie Fawcett. He warned her about doing anything on a public beach, because he could have full photographic access to her, that is actually pretty nice of him! So she of course goes topless sunbathing and gets snapped showing her backside as well as a few pics of her front. Why would you do such a thing if you actually got a warning from a paparazzi? Unless, you wanted to manufacture some sort of drama, especially since you career was tanking, this all makes sense now! There is absolutely nothing, interesting, allluring, or creative when it comes to Mischa Barton, and unfortunately for her, she is not Nicole Kidman so, any attempt to create some controversy around Mr. Fawcett will fall miserably flat like...there is no need to say.
Because of today's meeting with Commish Gordon, Britney will now get three days of supervised visitation per week as her behavior has improved tremendously. According to TMZ, if all goes well, by the middle to the end of summer, she should be able to resume 50/50 custody, but with all things Britney, we shall see.
Ex-Basketball star Dennis Rodman has enjoyed a life after basketball full of excitement and public attention, however, the problems he had while he played on the Detroit Pistons, still have a place in his life. With his recent divorce from his wife, he hasn't been able to see his kids, and Dennis is a very loving and protective father, so he has been very frustrated and angry lately, and unfortunately, his present girlfriend became the object of his fury. After being arrested for a domestic battery charge, he has decided to do outpatient rehab to address his problems and anger issues, and I applaud his decision, but, you should never let your anger get the best of you.

As Britney Spears sits in a room with her lawyers and parents to meet with Commissioner Gordon as to her getting back some parental rights, I am very pleased to see her acting like a mature adult. It is clear that if Britney takes her meds and has positive influences in her life, she can be of benefit to herself, her children, and others around her. No Sam Lufti's, Alli Sims, or Adnan Ghalib needed. Kevin Federline, from the very beginning, wanted her to do what's right for their boys and stop exploiting them, myself along with many others, never thought that he would be the voice of reason! Well, coming off her second episode of CBS' HIMYM and three more slated, it is definitely a move in the correct direction and maybe she can be on her own within the next six months, but that should not be rushed.
The new week brings us this runway beauty, ABIGAIL CLANCY.
Clancy is a 22 year-old English lingerie and catwalk model who's modeled for just about all of the big name English magazines and newspapers. She even dabbled in TV in a reality series that starred her and Janice Dickinson about the modeling world in Los Angeles called, "Abbey and Janice: Beauty and the Best".

This little Hollywood Hottie may have the appearance of being too young to be posted as Morning Wood, but looks can be deceiving.
This cutie-patutie is ALICE GRECZYN, a 22 year-old actress from California. She was on a TV series called Windfall and in such lame films as Dukes of Hazzard, Sleepover and Fat Albert, but I won't hold that against her. It seems she's in B-Movie mode right now with 4 films coming out. She has yet to rise up and take over young Hollywood, but a storm is a coming with her. Move over Mischa, Alice is in town!

With all of this Miley Cyrus, Vanity Fair layout backlash occuring, after seeing all of the pics, for the most part, they were all very very good, but her parents should have never left the shoot. Also, I felt that Annie Leibovitz did take it a little far with the picture in question, because Miley is only 15, and she would do whatever Annie would tell her. Miley is for the most part, your average teen, and I blame her parents, guardians, and Disney for not being on set to make sure that everything would be kosher, from start to finish. Annie has done this sort of thing in the past, is anyone paying attention? For some actresses or entertainers, any publicity is good publicity, this young star didn't need this and now she is not going to show up to the red carpet for today's Disney Games. Mistake Disney, huge Mistake!! So make her lie low so this thing can keep going on for the next week or two? No you idiots!! Put her in front of her fans so she can be intimate and present like she always is, the mistake was not on her part! This ain't Vanessa Hudgens flashing her arugula frisee, it's Miley baby. I say booo on you Disney, very very poor handling of this situation, some people need to be replaced at the Mouse House!
Ok, I can forgive her marrying Tommy Mottola because she was sooo young, and he was a controlling bastard, but let us not forget about her fake marriage to Luis Miguel. This whole rush to marry in the Bahamas thing smells of an arrangement, because there is no way that these two would keep this a secret for sooo long, Mariah is crazy over Nick, whatever, she is just plain crazy. Also, Mariah has a ton of coin, not that Nick is living some sort of section eight lifestyle, but even with his clothing line and his show that was on MTV, he don't have Mariah money! So, no prenup....really....really??? Now you know, her lawyers could convince a judge that she is a 5150, just to protect her assets, it ain't that much of a stretch. I don't have any dislike for Nick Cannon, besides his acting and him being corny, and I am corny as heck and he annoys me! Stay tuned for this Cafe Ole Tom and Katie Cruise foolishness, there could be a turkey baster involved as well.
If you haven't seen this beautiful woman before, you might want to check her out!
This is KERRY WASHINGTON, a 31 year-old actress who's getting ready to blow up anytime now. Having done such big films as Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, The Dead Girl, the critically acclaimed Ray and The Last King of Scotland, it's a wonder why she's isn't a huge star considering she has the acting chops, the smokin' body and beautiful looks. If you want a better idea or look at just how sexy Mrs. Washington is, check out She Hate Me, The Last King of Scotland or I Think I Love My Wife.

According to SI, Mike D'Antoni will be leaving the Phoenix Suns for either the Chicago Bulls or the New York Knicks, and although I am a Knick fan, Chicago has more pieces in place to make his time more productive. All the coach of any team can ever do is to prepare his team the best way possible, working the game plan is entirely on the shoulders of all the players, and the Suns let D'Antoni down, not vice versa. At this point, he should move on to another team and perhaps he will have the playoff success that has eluded him for some time, good luck Mike. Read
In his first major role as an opinionated anti-establishment student named Shaka, on the NBC show, "A Different World," Gary Dourdan gained attention. Fast Forward to Monday morning as the CSI star was busted for possession of heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, and prescription drugs in Palm Springs, according to TMZ. He was found sleeping in his vehicle and was taken to jail and later posted a 5k bail, way to go, you arrogant ass! Clearly, what comes around goes around as he laid hands many years ago on his ex-wife, model, Roshumba, and the CBS network will be glad to see him leave/get killed off CSI. Stay tuned for his downward spiral.
Without Seth McFarlane my television choices would be even more limited than they already are, but with the Fox Network allowing him to do his third show, I will have another show to watch in addition to American Dad and Family Guy. The show will be a spinoff of the Family Guy character Cleveland and although on 13 episodes are slated, I am smelling a hit. Unless he is still touring with group, Black Box..."Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody, owwww!" This is truly great news for us Family Guy fans, what if we were to find out that weather correspondant, Ali Williams is his cousin or brother, the storylines would be absolute gold! Read
For all you Sci-Fi fans out there, I give you someone sexy to geek off too.
This is the 34 year-old Canadian born model and actress TRICIA HELFER, aka Number Six in the new Battlestar Galactica Television Series. If I had known she was on the new series, I would have watch the bloody thing cause she is spectacular. In case you missed her in the series, you can see all of her, or at least the top half, in the February 2007 issue of Playboy. Wow, something to definitely seek out!

When Kathy Griffin divorced her stupid ex-husband, Matt Moline in 06', it was nice that she could rebound with someone that wouldn't use her and could hopefully respect her. Steve Wozniak of Apple fame, may not be a Playgirl centerfold model, but it at least appeared that they could have a future, a very "green" future. They dated for almost a year, but I guess after a while that the romance dissolved and they just stayed friends, and although it may seem bad for Kathy, she will be okay. Steve is described as a nice guy, but ultimately he would not marry Kathy as he would want a total trophy wife and that is not K.G. Apparently, he sent her an email telling her that he is going to marry someone else, I can't wait to see the pics. Read
The CBS show, "How I Met Your Mother" maybe getting a reprisal of the role of the receptionist by the troubled pop star, Britney Spears. I don't watch the show, I didn't watch the Britney episode, and I don't plan on watching the upcoming one either, eventhough the previous show was the highest rated episode of the season. I support anything positive that Britney engages in as being under her conservatorship has definitely had a benefit on her life and someday she might regain joint custody of her sons. I understand that she is a daughter, sister, and mother, and is not some evil, unfeeling monster like she is made out to be, and as I have always said, I want to see her improve and be a great mom for her kids. HIMYM should be cancelled because the show has outlived it's time, and even Brit can't stop the inevitable.
Poor Roger Clemens, first Brian McNamee, his personal trainer accuses him of using steriods, now troubled singer, Mindy McCready is leveling claims that she had a ten year relationship with the pitcher from the ages of 15-25. If proven true, he could be known has a pedophile, beside totally violating his marriage vows, and then having his credibility blown to hell. Of course Clemens and his lawyer vehemently denies any wrongdoing and is beginning to paint her as a lying opportunist, surprise. I can tell you who is enjoying this, a man named Barry Bonds. This will become even more interesting in the coming days, so stay tuned. Read
Married couple of five years, Amy Poehler of "Baby Mama" and "SNL" and Will Arnett of "30 Rock" are expecting their first child by the end of the year, congrats to the both of them. Will Tina Fey be the Godmomma? Oh, I love Tina Fey, talented women are sexy! At least some of them are. Read
