Ricki Lake Loses Over 100 Pounds

Ricki Lake recently spoke with Us Magazine about her dramatic weight loss in which she shed over 100 pounds.

She now weighs 123-pounds and is a size-4.





















On crash dieting in 1991:

“… I went on this extreme diet. I used to faint because I wasn’t eating and I was always exercising.”

On the most exciting thing about her new weight:
For the longest time, when I was very heavy, I couldn’t cross my legs. I couldn’t physically do it. LOVE that I can cross my legs now ... Even my shoe size is changing. My Jimmy Choos are too big now.”

On what she thinks of super-skinny actresses:
“I think I have no wrinkles because I always had fat on my face. Really skinny girls age so fast."

Bryce Dallas Howard and Kirsten Dunst on Jane's May Issue

I got my May issue of Jane a couple of days ago and had to do a double take.

Yes, that is Kirsten Dunst. Wow, they did an amazing touch up job on her, I thought. And where's her snaggle tooth?


Jane Interview with Bryce Dallas Howard and Kirsten Dunst:

Is it hard keeping up your friendship when you're in such different stages, relationship-wise?

Kirsten: I wish I were in a Bryce stage. I'd rather be with someone I love, at home making dinner, than be single, for sure.

But you must be having some fun.

Kirsten:
It's fun. [She doesn't sound convinced.] It is. I'm happy. But life is about where Bryce is.
Bryce: I'm really happy, so I'm not going to argue. I was the worst single person on the planet! All I would do is stalk one person incessantly until he finally dated me.
Kirsten: Oh my God. [laughs].

Did you know your husband was "the one" right away, Bryce?

Bryce: Yes. The first time I saw him, I broke out into hives. I went home and wrote in my journal, "I met the man I'm going to marry." I just knew it. But he didn't know it for eight months.
Kirsten: For me, it's an intuitive thing. I have to be blown away or have a really good conversation and laugh with the person right away. Manny, who did our hair for Spider-Man 3, gives me advice and is soulful. He says I'm going to be pregnant within two years.
Bryce: Does that freak you out?
Kirsten: Yeah. I'm like, "Where's the dude?"

Sanjaya Malakar Speaks About His Time on American Idol

People Magazine talked with Sanjaya Malakar after his dismissal on last night's American Idol.

He spoke about being in the competition and having to to withstand the criticism that went with it.

People: What do you think turned the tide for you on Tuesday night?

Sanjaya: Honestly, I'm not a country singer. I think that that really took a toll on me. And I didn't have enough really strong performances to let people forgive me for that. Like, for example, LaKisha, she's not necessarily a country singer either, but she had enough strong performances to get her though – and I don't think I did.

What have you learned most as a result of being thrust into fame like this?

I think I've learned not to let any negativity get you – just to keeping on trucking, I guess. And try to find the positive in everything.

What would you say to Simon?

Well, from the beginning I think that Simon saw potential in me, and when I didn't fulfill that potential, he was kind of disappointed. So I just want to say to him that he's an amazing person, and what he does is awesome. He's very opinionated, but I learned more from him than anyone else while I was on the show.

Is it true that you had a habit of reading the online blogs to gauge your performance? What kind of an affect did that have?

Well
, I read the blogs more to balance myself, because it was kind of impossible not to hear stuff, and often times it was negative. So I kind of balanced the negative and the positive just to keep my self grounded.

Was it frustrating for you that your hair got almost more attention than your singing?

No, because at a certain point, that had kind of became my thing. Because I think that everyone looks for something to grab on to with each contestant, so I feel like my hair was that for me.

With all the hair and the hats and everything, was your philosophy at a certain point just to go for broke?

My philosophy was just to stay true to myself and try to put my personality out there – and that's all.

You had the sense that the tide was against you. Did you ever consider quitting or dropping out in deference to your fellow singers?

Not at all, not at all. I was going to stay as long as I possibly could and just work every week and try to learn from everything that happened.

How did you react when Hillary Clinton was asked about you at a news conference?

I heard about that very briefly. And it's interesting because I had no idea how much impact the show has. I think it's interesting that someone like me, a 17-year-old Seattle boy, could have so much impact to get into the presidential debate.

What will you do next?

I'm definitely looking at a music career but I also want to venture into acting and modeling and possibly Broadway or something because I want to get the full entertainment business.

With the pros and cons of celebrity, are you thinking about getting a bodyguard?

Yeah, I'm definitely ready to hire a bodyguard. I'm actually looking to do that right now.

American Idol Exeutive Producer Gives The Scoop On the Remaining Finalists

Entertainment Tonight spoke with the executive producer of American Idol, Ken Warwick, after the dismissal of Sanjaya Malakar.














ET
: Do you think your numbers will suffer now that
Sanjaya Malakar was voted out? Do you think people tuned in for the train wreck?

KEN WARWICK: To be honest, touch wood, we are big enough that the ratings don't actually bother us that much at this stage. We know that we are bigger than anybody else. We know we are up over last year. That is not likely to change. If [the ratings] dropped considerably, there would be a reason for us to agonize over them. If we got bogged down in the ratings, then we would be chasing ourselves around a tree, so we don't pay that much attention to it.

ET: Did Sanjaya cheapen the show?

KEN: Irrespective of what effect he [had] on the show, he was there because people at home voted for him.

ET: Because of the Sanjaya effect, would you ever considering splitting the vote like they do on "Dancing with the Stars," where the judges vote counts 50 percent?

KEN: No. I will never consider that. That is not a part of our format. As far as we are concerned, it is the public at home that picks the Idol. There has never been a case where they have never been able to skew the vote one way or another. We had 38 million votes this week. Even the biggest radio shows are a drop in the ocean and will not be able to sway the votes.

ET: What is your reaction to Ryan Seacrest supporting the contestants more this year?

KEN: I love it. One of the attractions, if you like, people say to me, "Why is this show so popular?" A very relevant point is that there is quite curt banter between the judges and Ryan. Ryan is always there to support the contestants no matter what the situation. He is not a judge. He is there to champion their song and the way that they sing it. If he feels they are being bullied by any of the judges, it is part of his mandate, "You step in there and you defend them, if you think it is right."

ET: Do you feel that the judges are steering voters toward Jordin Sparks?

KEN: I have to say, when they can, they always tell the truth. They have also been pretty supportive of Melinda Doolittle every week. I don't think it is any more than anybody else who is good. They call it the way they see it. Had they had any kind of agenda of making Jordin one of the frontrunners, they would have started earlier. In the past few weeks, she has impressed them. With all these shows, you find generally, it is the person who grows throughout the series that usually wins the benefit in the end of it. I think they realized the one contestant who has consistently grown -- Melinda has been good every week, Lakisha has been pretty good every week, but Jordin has grown. It gives them something to talk about. Jordin is someone who they can hook into it. It gives them more credibility.

ET: Do you think that Melinda is too mature to win the competition?

KEN: She is more mature, to be honest with you, but the fact of the matter is, it isn't my decision, it is the publics. If they think she is fine and they want to see her again and they vote for her, then she is going to be there. I long ago gave up worrying what my personal favorites were. Last year, I loved Kat McPhee. She was just a really, really talented all-arounder. I would have loved her to win, but it wasn't to be. There was somebody there that was a bit quirky and he was the winner. End of story. What I think is immaterial, really.

Joel Madden's Blender Interview

When he’s not dating Hilary Duff or Nicole Richie, the Good Charlotte singer is either on the phone with his mom, tidying his house or hanging out with Black Wall Street.




































Blender: People usually draw a self-portrait, Joel. You just wrote a bunch of words and letters.
Joel Madden: I’m a terrible artist. I can’t draw. I’m not very creative.

OK, we get the idea. So what did you write down?
I wrote out all the things that make me up. My initials; my band Good Charlotte; my clothing company; my production team; where I’m from originally—Maryland, Virginia, D.C.—my two crews, Black Wall Street and AMC. And I wrote, “I love my mom,” because I’m a mama’s boy.

How does a white punk from Maryland have a crew called Black Wall Street?
One of my best friends is the Game, a rapper, and that’s his crew. I’m an honorary member. I’m his son’s godfather. We live on the same street, we borrow each other’s cars. He has huge pool parties every other weekend. There’s valet parking, and it’s just an insane scene.

He was in the Bloods, and he sold drugs in Compton. What do you two have in common?
We have the same frame of mind. I always knew music was an opportunity to get out of a small town, make money, have a better life and take care of my mom. That’s why I related to hip-hop, because that’s what they rap about: opportunity.

Talk us through your worst haircut.
My high-school-graduation picture is pretty bad. I was into Green Day and Rancid, and I cut my hair real short and dyed it green and blue. I wasn’t going to graduate, and my mom was crying, so I went to night school with all the pregnant girls, to get my credits. I bleached my hair to look presentable for graduation, and it turned out orange.

So you really are a mama’s boy.
When I go home, she does my laundry and cooks for me. I call her every day. When I was out on the road and partying and stuff, my mom never knew. She’d read things sometimes and be like, “That’s not true!” And I’d be like, “Yeah, I don’t know why they wrote that, Mom. That’s not true.”

But it was true.
Yeah, sometimes.

If you were a woman, who would you want to be?
I’d probably want to be Oprah. Actually, no, Angelina Jolie. She gets to do whatever she wants.

What medication are you on?
Just coffee and cigarettes.

You know cigarettes are bad for you, right?
Whatever. Heroin would be worse, wouldn’t it? I’ll stick with the cigarettes.

So the way you rationalize it is—
I could be doing heroin. I really could! Like, without cigarettes, I would be doing heroin, probably. On a daily basis.

What’s the one question you’re most tired of being asked?
People have this misconception that I’m followed all the time by paparazzi, which I’m not. The only reason that’s ever been an element of my life is because of the women I’ve dated. In every interview, they ask me, “How do you deal with people invading your privacy?” The paparazzi don’t care about me.

Do you have any nicknames?
This is kind of weird, but my friends call me JoelPac, or Pac. Like Tupac. I don’t usually tell people, because it’s like, “Who does this guy think he is?” Tupac’s my favorite rapper, and I know every word to every song.

How much is a quart of milk, JoelPac?
$2.50? $2.99? $1.98? I don’t look at the prices. When I was growing up, we had food stamps. So now, when I go to the grocery store, I buy everything I want. I buy a quart of ice cream and I don’t even eat it sometimes.

What personal habit do you have that other people find annoying?
I need to have everything in its place—I have OCD. My friends will all be hanging out at my house and they’ll see me cleaning and organizing their shit, straightening it all. And they’re like, “Do you want us to leave?” Then, if they move something, I’ll stare at it while they’re talking to me. It’s really weird and obsessive.

Are you a genius?
No way. [Laughs] I’m a hard worker, that’s about it. There are a lot of geniuses sitting in their parents’ basements right now, playing video games.

RADAR Interviews Jon Voight

Radar talks to Voight about the Patriot Act, his daughter Angelina Jolie, her children, and of course, the media.

RADAR: Was the Iraq war part of the war on terror before we got there?
JON VOIGHT: I'm interested in talking about this, but it's been so politicized, it's very disturbing, very dangerous. My view of it is this: they say our president lied to us. Well, he didn't lie to us, everybody else had the information he had, and they voted for that tactic.

So I imagine you're a supporter of the Patriot Act?
Yes, I'm a supporter of the Patriot Act. I support protecting us and investigating anyone who indicates they're going to be dangerous to our country. It's one of those things; it depends on which side you're on politically. If we had these things in place we could have anticipated 9/11. We're not interested in investigating someone who's doing something appropriate. We don't have time for that. That's nonsense. I certainly hope we're paying close attention to all those people crossing our borders who might be dangerous to us. We know for sure there are cells in the United States that are ready to erupt. We know that Hezbollah is here; we know there are cells from different terrorist organization that are here and operational and that there are others waiting too. So listen, it's a serious business. It's wartime, guys. Because we don't have a continuous attack on our shores, we can get complacent. We've got to all be alert now, we've got to be a part of it and be supportive of our troops for sure.

Even if you disapprove of the war, it seems pretty clear that simply pulling the troops out might not be the best option.
More than that, the war does not end. When we look around and see the evidence of what is being done and the preparations that are being made to disrupt our country and to destroy it. This growing cancer of fanaticism, it's like 1938­it's very, very similar.

To the Third Reich?
Yeah.

Islamic fundamentalism?
Whatever you call it, the things that are being said are very similar. It's a matter of whether we recognize that or go into a cocoon and make our own little drama. Do you know what I'm saying? We're debating things instead of recognizing that the real fundamental aspect is that we're at war with a very vicious, very clever enemy.

The press has been unkind about your relationship with Angelina Jolie over the last few years. One recent item had you flubbing the name of one of her daughters.
What! Flubbed the name?

Do you have any response?
No, listen, I haven't been in touch with the kids and I would love to be spending time with them, that's all. I have nothing to say, people want to make news out of everything. It's just a cruel slap at somebody and it becomes a part of our mythology, we can't correct it. I don't want to bring attention to it again. It always hurts me when things are brought back to the fore that are distorted. I send my love to Angie and her family.

America Ferrera Talks To W Magazine

America Ferrera tells W magazine what it’s like being a curvaceous woman in Hollywood.






















“I mean, of course I want to be at a weight where I’m happy. There are times when I go to the gym and really try, and there are times when I just don’t. I gain a pound; I lose a pound. But I think I’ve developed a really good sense of when I’m doing something for myself as opposed to when I’m doing something because of other people’s expectations of me. And honestly, even if I wanted to be anorexic, I just don’t have what it takes. After four hours of being anorexic, I’d be like, ‘It’s been four whole hours! Feed me!’”

To view behind the scenes footage of America Ferrera’s photo shoot with W, please visit www.wmagazine.com.


ON THE TABLOIDS ANNOUNCING THAT SHE AND BOYFRIEND RYAN PIERS WILLIAMS GOT ENGAGED

“It’s totally not true! And his mom called me and my sisters were calling me, and I was like, ‘Are you kidding? Did you not think I would tell you first?’ And then I put out a statement that it wasn’t true, and that became a whole news story. So now it’s news when something doesn’t happen? Like, news flash: California did not get hit by a hurricane today.”


ON NOT BEING OFFERED LEADING ACTING ROLES DESPITE HER RECENT SUCCESSES

“When it comes to envisioning an actor in a role that they haven’t seen them in, people in this business can be a little uncreative. No one is willing to take a gamble…It’s been more about developing my own material, finding roles that I would like to play and figuring out a way to get those things made.”


ON TRYING TO ENJOY THE MOMENT

“The hardest part of this year has been learning to enjoy it. It’s almost like a full-time job reminding myself to live in the moment and not look for more, more, more…I see now that people who make movies, this world of creative geniuses that I grew up idolizing, are just normal people who wanted to do something and made it happen. Everything that’s happened to me in the last year has only made me feel more like a normal person, more human, but in the most beautiful way.”


ON HAVING ‘A MINI NERVOUS BREAKDOWN’ AFTER HER FIRST SHOW BIZ EXPERIENCE ON THE DISNEY CHANNEL MOVIE GOTTA KICK IT UP

“I just felt really empty. I had achieved my dream, and it wasn’t totally fulfilling. I still had school problems, and I still had boy problems. My life was still my life. I guess I had been waiting to be turned into a swan.”


ON BEING HONDURAN AND GROWING UP IN A CAUCASION NEIGHBORHOOD

“As early as second grade I remember feeling really different and isolated. I had the hugest crush on a boy, and my best friend had a crush on him too. One day he said to me, ‘I like your best friend more because she’s paler and she has freckles.’ And it was right then that I began to feel like, Oh wow, I’m different.”


ON NOT FITTING IN WITH THE LATINO COMMUNITY

“I mean, I grew up in the Valley. All my friends were white Jewish kids. So the Latino kids thought I was this white girl.”


ON HAVING FIVE SIBLINGS

“Growing up, I never had a ton of friends. I always had two or three, but when you have four sisters and a brother all a year apart, you don’t really need anyone else to play with…I learned the naughty words before anyone else in my class. And I think I avoided many of the pitfalls because I got to watch them live through it.”
O

N HER PARENTS NOT SUPPORTING HER DREAMS OF BECOMING AN ACTRESS

“Acting was not something that they came to this country to have me do… For a time I thought I could be a lawyer. As a kid I even went to law camp at UCLA. They had us watch My Cousin Vinny, which was great. But then we went to the courthouse, and we had to do these mock trials, and once I saw what it really meant to be a lawyer, I realized that it wasn’t for me. I thought it was like in the movies, like, ‘You can’t handle the truth!’ That kind of thing.”


ON BEING APPROACHED BY SALMA HAYEK TO STAR AS ‘UGLY BETTY’

“Honestly I never saw myself doing TV, but Salma was so convincing. Salma is the kind of person who could sell you, like, a used stereo. She promised me that it would be done in the right way, and I just trusted her.”


ON GETTING A COLLEGE DEGREE

“Acting is something I knew I wanted to do long term. But not going to college was not an option. I think it probably helped me as an actress as well, because actresses need real-life experiences to draw from.”


ON WHAT HAPPINESS IS

“Happiness is something that you have to decide to have in your life. No amount of accolades can make you a happy person, and learning that as young as I did was a gift.”


ON HER AMBITIONS

“When there’s a film I want to do, sleep doesn’t matter. Part of me would love to be sitting in the sun in Italy, but I’d be crazy by day four.”

Q & A With Tina Fey of '30 Rock'

Tina Fey talks with MSNBC's Dan Fleschner about her hit show '30 Rock', Oprah, stay at home moms and Will Farrell.



Q: You've had a lot of celebrity guests on "30 Rock," including our own Al Roker (Watch Video) in an upcoming episode. If you could get anyone to appear on the show, who would it be?

Tina Fey: I'd love to get Oprah on the show. We contacted her about doing the show, and we were told that she was in South Africa for three weeks. So I was like, "Well you can tell Oprah to call me when she gets back." We ended up getting Lester Holt to do it -- that's still flattering for Lester, right? Being second in line behind Oprah?

I'd like to get Ben Affleck. He's a pretty funny guy. Maybe when we hit it big, he'll do it.

Q: When you walk by the NBC Experience Store here in New York or visit www.nbcuniversalstore.com, you find that there is no "30 Rock" merchandise out there. What's the deal?

Tina Fey: They keep telling us that it's in the works. We keep saying, "Can't we just have a shirt with the logo on it?" I mean, high school choirs get this done. We have shirts, jackets and bags for our crew -- you can have these things made in a second. Who are the t-shirt people around here?

Q: We had the author of a new book called "The Feminine Mistake" on the show earlier this week. She writes about how young mothers are deciding to stay at home to raise their kids more and more -- and that by depending on their husbands financially, those women are opening themselves to potential problems down the road. You're a working mother of a 19-month-old -- what do you think about this issue?

Tina Fey: The ideal situation for a parent is one that no one has -- having a fulfilling job that requires you to work three days a week. It's better for the parents, because they get to spend time with the children and also have a source of pride and achievement -- and income -- outside the home.

I worked as a registrar for a day care center in Illinois, and I would see a lot of two-parent families in which both parents worked. For them to both have jobs and put their kids in full-time day care, they were almost losing money out of the situation. So working full-time isn't necessarily the best financial option.

I guess what I would tell women is to get their education first, before having kids. That way they can keep their options open down the road. I also think that it shouldn't necessarily be an issue just for women, that men should be part of the stay-home discussion too.

Q: Have you seen Will Ferrell's movie "Blades of Glory" yet, and was Meredith a fool for getting on the ice with him?

Tina Fey: I unfortunately haven't had a chance to see it yet...Will Ferrell is a dangerous man. If he thinks you're in his way in show business, he will crack your head open. He's the Jeff Gillooly of comedy.

Tim From 'The Apprentice' Interview


SO DID YOU WATCH THE SHOW LAST NIGHT?

Of course, you have to watch yourself go down in flames! No, I mean, I didn't take it too seriously - I watched with some friends and we laughed and had a good time.


SO YOU WERE OKAY WITH HOW THE PRODUCERS EDITED THE EPISODE?

I wondered if they were going to edit it fairly or make it look like I was useless or something, but, I was glad they got my side of the story across.

WHY DO YOU THINK TRUMP FIRED YOU?

Well, I knew I was in big trouble going in - Trump didn't think I was loyal enough to Nikki while my team thought I was too loyal to her.

ARE YOU AND NIKKI STILL DATING?

Yes - it's actually our ten-month anniversary. That also makes the whole getting fired thing less painful.

ARE YOU ROOTING FOR HER TO BECOME THE NEXT APPRENTICE?

Yes, but not just because she's my girlfriend. For me, it was fun, but being a music composer is my real dream. But Nikki really wants this and she loves Trump and real estate and I think she'd be great at it.

ARE YOU STAYING IN TOUCH WITH EVERYONE?

Yeah, I'll be staying in touch with most people. It was hard for a little while - having my team form a consensus against me and not saying, 'Tim's been great,' but it's a game and we all got along well.

WHAT'S UP NEXT FOR YOU?

I'm focusing on music - that's why I moved to LA. I play the piano and I was lucky enough to play for an amazing producer, Glen Ballard, and we did an album called Turning Home which you can find on iTunes or on my website, www.timurban.com.

New York Post Interview with New York & Tango of VH1's 'I Love New York'

VH1 loves New York, but New York loves Tango.

Brassy Tiffany Pollard may not have been able to land veteran rapper Flavor Flav on "Flavor of Love," but she reeled in upcoming hip-hopper Patrick "Tango" Hunter, 27, on last night's finale of "I Love New York."

"You never saw it on TV, but Tango and I used to spend a lot of time together at night," Pollard told The Post. "And an hour-long show is never enough to fit everything in."

New York chose Tango over Chance, a music producer, after whittling down a field of 20 suitors with the help of her opinionated mom, Sister Patterson.

In the over-the-top finale last night, Chance and Tango threatened to kill each other during a three-way date in Mexico and had to be separated until the final elimination.

"My mom really did like Tango," coos New York. "He's very religious, but he's also got a bad side and I like that - there's enough of him to go around."

The episode was filmed about four months ago, and the pair haven't been allowed to see each other since. They've kept in touch, says New York, by talking on the phone and e-mailing each other dirty pictures.

"I can't believe she told you about that," says Tango, who's seriously considering moving from his home in Tampa, Fla., to be with New York in Los Angeles. They were planning to watch the finale together last night in California, he says.

"I might be based out of Tampa, but I'm seriously considering relocation, I decided I would go for broke on the show, and I'm not gonna look back," he says.

"Tango is gonna have to make some time for New York now," says New York. "He's got some work to do."

New York lived in Utica, N.Y., until two years ago when she was picked to be a contestant on "Flavor of Love," a dating show where she competed against a house full of women to win the heart of rapper Flavor Flav.

He gave Pollard the nickname New York because of where she grew up and her outlandish personality. New York ended up becoming the arch-nemesis of everyone on the show except Flav, who dumped her twice, each time during the final episodes of the series' two seasons.

Soon after, New York said she had "no feelings for Flav because of his 'ignorocity'."

Both seasons produced some of VH1's best ratings ever, and the network offered New York her own dating show this year.

Interview with Sarah Silverman


From The Advocate March 13, 2007
By Brandon Voss



Your show satirizes some pretty racy topics. Did the folks at Comedy Central ever try to censor you?

There were definitely days where I was like, Those fucking assholes! But a lot of their notes, even if I disagreed with them, made us come up with something we liked even more. Plus, the precedent that South Park alone set makes it so hard for Standards and Practices to have many arguments. That show really opened so many doors in terms of what you can get away with on that channel.

Yeah, I recently heard the c word on a Comedy Central stand-up special.

You can say anything, even “cunt,” after 1 a.m. And there’s a lot you can also get away with after 10 p.m., which is why we’re at 10:30 p.m. We can’t say “cunt,” but that’s OK.

What was the idea behind casting comedians Brian Posehn and Steve Agee as your bearish gay neighbors?

We knew we wanted them to be together—roommates, brothers, whatever—and it just organically felt right that they were lovers. I just love them because they’re obviously against any stereotype, but not gratuitously. They both play it so honestly, and you really feel like these two characters love each other. And the comedy comes from the circumstances—it doesn’t necessarily come from the fact that these two big slobs are a gay couple.

Do you have a lot of gay friends in real life?

No, none! [Laughs] Yeah, of course. I have a lot of gay friends, but my two closest gay friends are both comedians. One is a woman, Tig Notaro, who actually stars in episode 5, where I decide I’m a lesbian and I’m in love with her. And the other one is a guy, but the only time I can really tell he’s gay is when we play video games, because whenever he’s getting killed he’s like— [shrieks].

Is the lesbian episode based on your own experimentation?

No, I never did. I’ll admit it’s so exciting to think of, but I love boring cock.

Have you ever gotten any flak from gay groups who can’t take a fag joke or an AIDS joke?

Nah, the gays have the best sense of humor. We actually have an AIDS episode coming up where I wake up with a case of the blahs and decide I need some good news. So I get an AIDS test, because of course I don’t have AIDS, but once I get the test I convince myself I have it and start a whole AIDS awareness movement that’s really based on my pictures on posters. But I think that will go over well.

What would you do if your boyfriend, Jimmy Kimmel, came out of the closet?

I’d be devastated! He’s my life partner! I’d probably have to get a sex change and try to woo him. If he weren’t my boyfriend, I’d be totally supportive.

Is it true that you aren’t going to marry Jimmy until gays in the U.S can marry?

Absolutely true. I don’t want this government to be any part of our love, so I have no interest in getting married. What makes it less wrong than when interracial marriage was illegal? It’s fucking barbaric.

Did you make that statement before Brad Pitt did?

I did say it before Brad Pitt. I said it a long time ago. Actually, someone e-mailed to tell me when Brad Pitt said it, and there was a part of me that was mad! But then I was like, Why would I be mad? It’s a good thing. I don’t have to own that.

Madge in UK Elle Magazine

















Madonna to Elle UK: "My daughter is going through a phase of wearing jeans that are so tight she can’t bend her knees in them. I have a go at her and say, ‘Can’t you wear something else? You have a closet full of clothes and you wear the same pants every day. And please wear a belt because I don’t want to see your butt crack when you bend over.’”

Eminem's Ex Talks About His Manhood During Radio Interview



Kim Mathers, the twice ex-wife of Eminem, was interviewed on WKQI 95.5FM's 'Mojo in the Morning' show today.


There was nothing held back as she ranted and raved about how much she hates him and how little his dick is.

"I can't stand him. He's an absolutely horrible person, and he gets worse every day. I vomit in my mouth whenever I'm around him or I hear his name. There's nothing left in me for him. Nothing at all."


"If you're going to have sex with Marshall, make sure you have a little blue pill, because otherwise it does not work." She went on to say that sex with Em was bad in bed and that he isn't very well endowed.

"His relationship with the kids has (gone) downhill." Besides Hailie, Em and Kim also take care of Hailie's cousin, Alaina. "Since he left the house (this month), I don't know what he's doing. His visits are few and far between, and when he does come around, it's nothing positive."

She also said that when he is around he is "always yelling and complaining about something." She said Hailie always asks, " 'Why's dad acting so weird?' That's what they say every day."


"It's a shame that I've moved on and Kim hasn't," Eminem said in a statement released Friday afternoon via his publicist, Dennis Dennehy. "Her ongoing press campaign is doing nothing but harm to the children, and for that I feel truly sorry. For their sake I wish she would stop."

Charlize Theron Offends CNN Correspondant



And then offers to make out with him.

Charlize Theron shocked CNN reporter, Rick Sanchez, by saying she wanted to make out with him during a tense interview about Cuba.

The interview was regarding Theron's recent trip to Cuba where she had just produced the movie, 'East of Havana', a story about hip hop rappers in the country, who must have all their lyrics approved by government before performing.

Sanchez and his family once fled Cuba to avoid Fidel Castro's regime. The Cuban born reporter took offense and became irritated at Theron for comparing freedom in America to that of communist Cuba and accused her of not having a very high opinion of the United States.

Sanchez has since called the comment "a way for a beautiful woman to get a guy to change the subject."
