Kim Kardashian

At the Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, LA premiere, Kim Kardashian said that she was only there because Megan Fox was in the film. “I have a big girl crush on Megan Fox” Kardashian told E! Entertainment. “I think Megan Fox is hot… and I don’t even have girl crushes, ever!” Nice encouragement from KK towards megan Fox’s rising star in Tinsel Town. Love it! Kardashian knows how to work a red carpet for  her own press. Tres smart!

THE JOLIE-PITT TWINS, KNOX & VIVIENNE: WHAT’S IN NAME?

Knox&VivienneJoliePitt

Life & Style Magazine, because the Gosselins and their TV shwo are on hiatus, have felt the need to come up with some punk story about Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, the famous twins of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.

They say that Angie is hiding the twins from the public eye because the twins are fragile and cannot hold down their food. That’s just stupid. When their arrival and revelation in the world was a $20 million magazine cover, that was donated to refugee’s charity, these two babies don’t appear in public for free!

I remember writing a story for TU MAI magazine, when both babies were born. The story was published in New Zealand. Here it is, the story is called, WHAT’S IN A NAME. Some words are in hori-eze (or the indigenous Maori language of New Zealand, go here, to translate any words). Enjoy!

When you’re busy, you don’t want to do interviews all the time. You just want to live your life and let other people talk about you. This is the case, for the world’s #1 woman, Angelina who graces the cover of July’s Harper’s Bazaar Magazine.

Angelina who turned 34 last Thursday allowed herself to be critiqued by feminist author Naomi Wolf instead. Wolf’s essay studies the fact that “women both identify with her and desire her.”

Highlights of Naomi Wolf’s interview are:

It’s “more than simply a physical response,” Wolf says. Jolie “brings together almost every aspect of female empowerment and liberation.”

CHEATING VS CHARITY: JON GOSSELIN WORKS THE CHEAT ANGLE TODAY… BUT NONE OF US CARE!

JonGosselinCaughtCheating

The TLC/ Gosselin camp are working the Jon Gosselin is cheating with a 23 year-old girl angle (again!) today. The National Enquirer  website has video footage of Jon entering a bar in Nyack, New York with Kate’s plastic surgeon’s daughter and Gosselin family friend, Hailey Glassman. 

The truth is… we don’t care today! We’re more interested in the Darfur refugees crises, that Angelina Jolie has put a spotlight on today and giving them our TLC, focus and attention to help stop the plight of people in the world who are in real need!

You know it! Jon Gosselin, have YOU donated yet, to Darfur’s children in real need? That’s what the media is for, and celebrity too… to get our attention towards good.

If you haven’t given yet, please visit this post. Thanks Team! :)


KATE GOSSELIN HAS MEDIA HEAT BUT HAS SHE DONATED TO DARFUR’S REFUGEE CHILDREN YET?

KateGosselinDufarKateGosselinNeedsToGiveToDufar

Kate Gosselin may have media heat in America as tracked by  the USA TODAY Celebrity Heat Index landing at No. 1 for the fourth straight week as she continues to pimp the Gosselin kids out for ratings. But with hers and Jon’s estimated $10 million fortune acrued so far, has she donated to the refugee kids in crises in Darfur yet?

Let’s hope she has. #2 is Twilight’s Robert Pattinson, #3 is Jon Gosselin, #4 is Twilight’s Kristen Stewart.

That’s whose getting the most press in the US at the minute while we all keep Darfur refugeees in mind.

Do Something and please Give today… thank you!


GOSSELIN BATTLESHIP GAMES USING THE GOSSELIN KIDS, SHOULD TAKE A BACK ROW SEAT FOR DARFUR KIDS PLIGHT

KateGosselinBattleShipGosselinKidsAlthough Kate Gosselin has been following TLC Network’s PR script to the letter this week, by continuing the “Gosselin Battleship Game” between herself and her husband Jon Gosselin to further the popularity of their Jon & Kate Plus 8 reality TV show… there’s more important things going on in the world regarding children’s welfare, for us to consider.

Kate, took the Gosselin children to see The USS North Carolina battleship. However, the Gosselin children (whose parents are worth a reported $10 million from TV appearance fees and endorsements) are not of concern today. The kids of Darfur are. These children in Darfur are displaced refugees. They need more help than the Gosselin children do. (I know that’s hard to believe… but it’s true!)

Today Angelina Jolie, the #1 ranked celebrity in the world, on her 34th birthday has put a battle cry out to world leaders (all of us) to intervene in Darfur and end their heartache and displacement. Please go here, and make a difference today. Jon & Kate… should do the same with some of their millions!

Not one to take her celebrity lightly, Angelina Jolie who was named the world’s #1 celebrity by Forbes this week, is quick to put her media spotlight to good use as a humanitarian of action.

Jolie has penned an article for Time Magazine calling for a focused commitment from all nations to end the crisis in Darfur. Angelina’s article coincides with The UN’s Security Council being presented with the International Criminal Court’s Darfur investigation, this friday.

Writes Jolie who first visited Chad to speak with Darfur refugees in 2004: “The evidence the prosecutor has presented is clear and compelling, pointing out that “millions of people have been displaced” and “hundreds of thousands have been killed… Since 2004… nothing’s changed.”

With this quote today from Megan Fox in British GQ:

I can’t tell you how much bulls**t I’ve been through because I will openly say that I smoke weed. People look at it like it’s this crazy, hippy, f**ked-up thing to do. And it’s not. I hope they legalize it.”

Megan Fox needs to move to Jamaica, Amsterdam or St Lucia with Amy Winehouse… instead of trying to be a Californian politican as well as a sex symbol!

Geez girl, calm it down a notch, will ya?! Angelina Jolie only opens her mouth to a) promote a movie, or b) save the world. LEARN!
