Sunday Celebrity Synposis - Installment 2

We had another exciting week in Celebrityville. Let's not waste any time with our coverage of the weeks biggest stories.
  1. And baby makes seven...and eight! That's right, sports fans. The long awaited Brangelina progeny have arrived. Knox Leon (yeah, he'll get his ass kicked in grade school) and Vivienne Marcheline arrived via C-Section on July 12, each weighing around 5 pounds.
  2. And their first baby pictures are said to be worth at least $11 million. Dude, you can HAVE my kid for that much. (Just kidding. She's priceless, and if you try to take her I'll hunt you down like a dog.) What kind of people are we that we'll pay such ridiculous sums for a shot of a BABY?!? For that much money you can clone Brangelina yourself and stare at them all day long if you want. At least the money is going to charity.
  3. Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman split. I guess all that f**king Matt Damon and Ben Affleck finally wore the wacky couple down. Not that I care, because I HATE Sarah Silverman (watching her show one time on Comedy Central was the biggest waste of 30 minutes I've ever had).
  4. Helena Bohnam Carter walks her baby. Not so much news as a commentary. If you're going to push around your baby in a $3000 "pram", the least you can do is dress the part. And Birkenstocks and general hippie attire are not that. Just sayin'.
  5. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban reject all paid offers to photograph Sunday Rose. Can I say "You Go Girl!" I want to see pictures of their oddly-named tyke as much as any other Celebu-Nazi, but I totally understand and agree with their decision. This is a child, and a newborn at that, and some things need to be left sacred.
  6. Kate Moss says that she "behaves like a teenager" and is convinced she won't grow old. Uhh, DUUUUUHHHH! Cocaine snorting anorexic anyones very rarely live to be ancient cocaine and heart-pill snorting anorexics. Way to think that one through, genius.
  7. Britney Spears and K-Fed settle their custody battle. Can I get an amen? It's been nice not seeing the media flooded with her crazy shenanigans, but some part of me misses betting on what s**t she was going to pull next. Oh, and K-Fed, aka "Father of the Year," gets primary custody. Never thought I'd see the day where some rapper-wannabe who mooches off of pop royalty be the one coming out on top, but this is 2008. Never thought we'd see $5 gas, either, but look-a-dee-doo. (P.S. She has to pay him $20,000 a MONTH for each kid. What in the h-e-double hockey sticks does a 2-year-old need with that much money? Really.)
  8. Salma Hayek calls off her engagement to French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinnault. Can you say sperm donor? And why? Salma, you are one of the most beautiful actresses around, and you chose HIM to be the father of your child? I sure hope you were going on brains, because he sure as heck doesn't have the brawn. At least we also know you weren't marrying him for the money. I guess it doesn't buy you everything.
  9. Another person joins the 90210 spin-off. Can I get a "who cares?" I never really liked the show when everyone was young and hot, and I definitely won't know that they're older, wrinklier, Botoxed, and scuzzy (Tori Spelling). I'll be saving my time for something more valuable, like trimming my toenails or waxing my bikini line.
  10. Lindsay Lohan is a lesbian. This is definitely old news, but I feel I must make commentary. Lindsay, my actress namesake, if you are going to putt from the rough, would you at LEAST choose someone hot? Because unless you take a close looks your little lover could pass for a dude. You're a hot, young, former felon. The least you could do is date someone who looks your part. And P.S., how is it that people can make a living AND become famous in Hollywood by spinning a few discs in a swank L.A. bar? I did that for free at a college radio station, and it sure didn't get me the hook-ups.
  11. Khloe Kardashian spends 173 minutes of her 3-day jail sentence for DUI in jail. Sweetheart, nobody cares about any part of the Kardashians except your sister's big @ss booty. Stop following in Paris-Lindsay-Nicole-Mischa's footsteps, get a job, go to college, and get the heck off of the E! network. We're sick of you and your sister's juicy double, already.
That's about all I have time for tonight. I'm off to watch Vantage Point with the happily-returned hubby. Mmmm, Matthew Fox....

I love this! It is hilarious!

I would totally divorce my husband RIGHT NOW if I could get $20,000 a month for our daughter. But, we only make $20,000 every six months...together....slaving away at our jobs...and 1/4 of that goes to student loans. I guess I have to keep him. Damn.

Lipstick said...

Oh this post is just so fabulous!!!! I am not even sure which part is my favorite, but I love the mention about getting the Kardashians off E! They just waste air.

AFRo said...

I think you were in my head on the stroller thing. I was all WTF? It just looks stupid.

I didn't even know about Salma and her billionaire! I agree wholeheartedly... sperm donor.

Amen on the Brit - KFed thing. He's got to have that much a month to pay someone else to raise his children because we all know it won't be him putting in the work. Duh!

leezee52 said...

You are awesome! I love it! More more more!

tiarastantrums said...

that's some funny stuff girly!

Melisa S. said...

So what does it mean when I read this and think...HELL YEAH, she is right on?! Especially the part of the Kardashian's...what a waste of space and time.

John Deere Mom said...

I completely agree with Sarah Silverman. Hate her. And I hate to admit, I can't quit staring at Kim K's ginormous @ss. It's just so big...

Maternal Mirth said...

You should have your own show or at least co-anchor Entertainment Tonight ... you'd bring a certain chutzpah to a pretty blah show like ET.

You're bursting at the seams with chutzpah!

GREAT post :)

Unknown said...

FAB-U-LOUS!!! I loved reading all your commentary. You really need to write for a tabloid... you'd be rakin' it in!

Dee said...

Ok, must admit being an Aussie I am a bit behind on some of that goss... but love the commentry!

Heather said...

Oh this just totally made me LOL, which isn't a good thing as the rest of my household is still sound asleep!

I just need to shout a big "AMEN, SISTER!" to every single thing you said, too, which will further tick off my hubby and daughter....

(AMEN, SISTER!)

There, I feel better now.

Cheers and happy SITS Featured Blogger Day! :D

Unknown said...

Can we get a weekly update?? I'm a ET junkie!

Esther said...

You certainly have a knack for celebrity commentating. I usually hate celebrity watching and refuse to buy gossip magazines that contribute to the ridiculous amounts of money they get paid for photos, but admit it, I'm human. I like to have a good old snigger at a celebrity as much as the next person. It's either that or emulating them and I'm certainly NOT going to be doing that.

Mandy said...

HILARIOUS!! I love this!

Creative Junkie said...

Love your writing style! And in a couple of short minutes, I just got all the hollywood news I could ever get from ET!

Preston said...

OMG! Where do you find the time? I like Helena Bohnam Carter but you are so right. It's like driving a Porsche Carrera GT and getting out in dirty overalls and no shirt.

Amy said...

Sometimes I think the celebrities entertain us more with their personal lives than they do with their talent (or lack of)

~Trish~ said...

LMAO Love it!

Natalia said...

Happy SiTS day :)

Rhea said...

Love your celebrity observations! I agree, Lindsay Lohan could find a much hotter lesbian lover.

That $3000 pram is amazing..and HUGE!

Jacie said...

too too funny. thanks for making me laugh!

magpie said...

i really did have something hilarious to add until i got to the mmmm matthew fox part. mmmm matthew fox.

Brandy said...

I love your take on celebrity-land. I've had the exact same thoughts...and any HATER of Sarah Silverman is a friend of mine.

She is NOT funny. At all.

Danielle said...

Thank you for leaving me with Matthew Fox! ;)

Hilarious!

AFRo said...

I've already commented here, but thought I would do it again for good measure and because you deserve it!!!

I'm sorry that I haven't been back to see your celeb postings, when Papa Fro got sick last month, my world turned upside down and I'm just now starting to get normal again. Keep it up though and I promise I will do better.

Congrats again. I hope your day is wonderful!!!

Girly Stuff said...

Celebrities are exhausting!

S Club Mama said...

This is great but who is Helena Carter? Am I that out of it? I need to flip through Enquierer or something...that was some buggy she had though!

Jennifer said...

Great post! It's so funny to read about celebrities! It's such cheap enertainment!

Jaden Paige said...

HAHAHA I love this!
The Helena Bonham Carter... priceless. WHY do you need a baby buggy that looks like that in this day and age?!?! Do you really think your infant cares if she's being toted about in something that looks like it belongs in a movie set in 19th century London?

Kate Moss. haha. That's all I have to say about that quote! Have a great day!

jori-o said...

Amen, sister! AMEN.

Pamela said...

Okay this was just down right hilarious! I agreed with you on most thoughts, however I have a confession to make...I am addicted to those stupid gossip mags about the celebs. Not really sure why except that it does drive my hubby crazy and that is always fun, just kidding!

Brooke said...

I love me some celebrity gossip!! I knew most of this but your wording was fabulous!

**Stopping by from SITS**

Rachel Ann said...

OMG!! Stinkin' hilarious...I especially like #6...so true!

BrookeJean said...

Thanks for the updates and especially the laughs! Oh my. Can't stop laughing over Kate Moss.

Hillarious!!

G. said...

funny stuff.

Tami said...

#4 is my favorite - ROFL!

And isn't that baby a bit old to be riding in that thing?? It seems (to me) like those things are for infants.

But what do I know? I only spent $100 on my stroller.....and that was a double stroller.....who's smarter now, huh Helena?!?

KiKi said...

Loved this!!!!!

Blessings Abound said...

I agree, if you're sporting a 3k pram, dress the part! How I'd love to push that pram around myself.:)

Sandra said...

Holy Cow! I LMAO!

Thanks for the giggle!

I still have to go work out now!

Crap!

Anna Lefler said...

Ha!

I guess I'll never understand the Kim K. thing. Neither end is all that appealing in my book...

A.

Eve said...

Where do you park a pram anyway? The thing is huge! I'm sure restaurants want to lock the doors when they see her coming with that monster! And at home?... Does the pram have it's own room? Because I'm pretty sure it doesn't fold up neatly to fit in the closet. My goodness!

lynn said...

Fun stuff!
Happy SITS day! :)

♥ Becky ♥ said...

I love your celebrity break down.
What the heck with that stroller. It's hideous, or maybe that is just my opinion, but then look who she's married to as well. EEKKK
And I agree with the Keith Urban & Nicole Kidman thing. I swear some celebrities love their tots being photographed TO MUCH. Look at her ex for that matter, I swear Suri Cruise is always being pictured.

La Pixie said...

ha, too funny. I love that pram, though. maybe for like, $150.

ha, juicy double!!

Michelle said...

Ok, the last thing you do if you don't want to draw attention to yourself is push your baby in some crazy pram that no one but celebs or their nanny's use!

I totally got a kick out of your celeb bashing run down. Me want more!!!!!

Cheryl said...

That is too funny! Sometimes I wish I had TV so I could watch all this nasty stuff. HeeHeeHee

The Boss Lady said...

Oooh, I'm such a celebrity whore. I live for this stuff.

Happy SITS Day!

nikkicrumpet said...

Great job with the celebratrash news. It's sad that we care...really really sad.

Anonymous said...

I rarely pay attention to this kind of thing because I get so sick of seeing the same stupid stuff from the same stupid people, but this was kind of fun.

Bebe said...

Hi Lindsay,
You are cracking me up on this post! Aren't those celebrities fun to watch?
Hugs, Bebe :)

Nina said...

That was funny! I couldn't keep track of half of what you just filled me in on. Great post!

Mama Mia said...

couldn't have said it better myself

Lavender n Lattés said...

ok - that's it - I think you're so hilarious - and it's as if you picked the words/thoughts out of my own brain!!! I've added you to my list of blogs I'm following, because now I'm hooked!

Live.Love.Eat said...

Putt from the rough. Now, THAT I have not heard of. Hilarious. This whole post was. Congrats on being featured today SITSa.

Anonymous said...

ROFL I love it!!!!

Tabitha Blue said...

LOVE LOVE LOVE your commentary and totally agree!!! Great post, I'm still smiling and chuckling... the only reason I'm not actually LOL is because I'm in the middle of an office!

:)
~Tabitha~

Cherie said...

Too funny!! Love your commentaries!

Unknown said...

You secretly write the headlines for the gossip rags in the checkout lines, right? LOL too funny.

Shannon said...

LOL! Loved your commentary!

Celebs are just as crazy as the rest of us!

mrsmouthy said...

I can't get enough of this stuff! And why am I jealous of all these people when they are so clearly messed up?

Hope you enjoyed all the SITS love today!

wendy said...

Oh my...have you considered your own show on E!? Very funny stuff!

Happy SITS day!

Jess NBP said...

FUNNY STUFF! AND UM The only ppl I know to have BIG BUTTS like that is a coworker of mine. Khloe's a$$ looks so un-natural!!

April said...

Too funny!! Thanks for giving me a good, much-needed laugh!!

EmmaP said...

hilarious! they should have YOU do the red carpet style news! you'd be awesome!

Anonymous said...

Very funny! Here comes the next Perez Hilton! Happy SITS day :)

Michelle said...

Ahhh, a nice celebrity fix. Sadly, I'm so out of touch that much of this was news to me :) Weird weird pram but pretty cute baby at least!

Jenn said...

Oh too funny! Love the commentary!!

Beth said...

i think Knox is a cool name actually! Leon is lame but Knox is hardcore, no?

Susan said...

Too funny!

Anonymous said...

snort! you are crazy, girl!

Anonymous said...

Maybe you should get a stint on E, that's quite the commentary.

What the hell is up with that huge freakish carriage, isn't the whole point of a stroller convenience.

And, btw, I hate Kim Kardashian's butt.

Congrats on the SITS feature.

Tiffany said...

AHHHHhahahahahahha that was awesome!

Seriously, hysterical.

Juicy Double... I have to say, as someone with a big @$$, I am grateful to Kim for making it trendy!

April Kennedy said...

I love me some juicy celebrity trash! That was great! And I haven't been keeping up all that much on it...so it was all news to me...even though it was 'old' news!

Awesome post!!! I loved reading all your commentary. You really need to write for a tabloid... Could we get a weekly update???
