Mel Gibson

Since Charlie Sheen has stopped making headlines, it’s now time to pick up on Mel Gibson where we left off. The man who has taken the biggest swan dive in Hollywood is back in the news again after pleading no contest in court. He recently spoke for the first time about his career’s future and [...]

Elizabeth Taylor

It’s sad to hear when an icon dies. While I was never a very big fan of Elizabeth Taylor, I can appreciate how some are mourning her passing this morning. She is one of the last movie stars who lived big, both personally and professionally. She had a lot of publicity surround her concerning her [...]

Book Deal

It seems they’ll make book deals with anyone. Bristol Palin, at the ripe, wisened age of 20 something, is preparing her memoirs for her adoring fans. Both of them. Besides a run on Dancing with the Stars and a famous mother, what can Bristol possibly have to offer in terms of life insights and wisdom?

RIP Kenneth Mars

Hollywood lost another great comedic legend. Kenneth Mars recently succumbed to pancreatic cancer. Some of you may be wondering who that is. Kenneth Mars had a small but very memorable role in one of Mel Brooks’ most famous movies, Young Frankenstein. The thick German accent that Mars used and the wooden arm he used as a prop was one [...]

Award season

What do Twilight, Sex and the City 2 and The Last Airbender all have in common? They were all nominated for Razzies. This “award” is the anti-Oscar, set aside for movies, actors, directors, etc. that are unmitigated disasters either critically, commercially or both. I have to wonder how badly some stars would like to see the Razzies disappear. [...]

Celebrity Deaths

So in the span of 48 hours we lost one of the greatest comedic actors of our time and the director of one of the most iconic films of all time. Irving Kershner, who directed The Empire Strikes Back, passed away the same day as Nielsen. The old adage about celebrity deaths coming in threes means [...]

Tom Bosley

I was really sad to hear that Tom Bosley passed away today. But here’s the stranger thing; I was never that big of a Happy Days fan. I watched an occasional episode, but there was just something about the show that didn’t resonate with me. That being said, Tom Bosley did make an impression with [...]

Katy perry

I just want to know one thing: where did this girl Katy Perry come from? What is she famous for? Did she win something? OK, maybe I want to know more than one thing, but still I’ve never heard of this girl outside of the past month or so. What is so special about her [...]

Memoirs

Here’s a question: How old do you need to be before it’s a respectable age to write your memoirs? I’m 33 years old and feel like that project shouldn’t start for another 20 years at least. Justin Bieber is writing his at age 16. What can he possibly have to talk about? Memoirs are really [...]

James Gammon 1940-2010

We’re losing great actors and entertainers quickly these days it seems. I’ve seen more high profile deaths in the past two years than I did in the five years preceding. the latest addition is actor James Gammon, a gravely voiced character actor best known for playing the no nonsense manager in “Major League.” He hada [...]
