Bea Arthur May 13, 1922 – April 25, 2009
RIP
Bea Arthur passed away this weekend from cancer. What a talent. God bless you, BA!! One of my first TVgasms was watching The Golden Girls, and as I found last night combing YouTube for the perfect video of Bea to post, this woman can still have me doubling over and gasping for air from laughing so damn hard. Rest in peace, sister, and thank you for all you gave us!
More videos after the jump.
MTV Rosie did an interview with People magazine and talked about the latest internet sensation, Miss Susan Boyle. We’ve all seen the video of Susan turning the coliseum of haters around to her side on Britain’s Got Talent, and everyone’s had something to say about it. I’m all for a little media saturation, especially if it gives Rosie O yet another chance to look like a complete jerk. She told People Susan was like Shrek. “Here is this freaky miss, a fat, ugly girl, like Shrek comes to life, directing energy towards her soul. This was so rare … something authentic in a world that is usually manufactured. It was a perfect moment which will never happen again.”
Rosie insists she meant it as a compliment. Uh…..thanks? I’m waiting for Susan to show her true star quality and get into a video blog war with RoRo. If you need some names to call her, might I suggest angry midget face?
Nads is getting ready for her big Showtime Comedy Special Premiere party tonight. Getting her nails done, her hair did, etc. So you’re stuck with me today. I had to bring my car in to get fixed and when I sat down, CNN blared “Father Tries to Sell his daughter!” Well who can blame him? Kids can be a nightmare. May as well try and get some of your money back. Kidding! Turns out, his kid is one of the stars of Slumdog Millionaire. India promises that they’re probing the incident, and the father swears that he was set up and there’s no way he would try to sell his kid! He was trying to adopt her to someone. For £200,000.
Ahhhh! Totally understandable then. He was brought down by an undercover team, thankfully. Now this adorable, talented girl will get to stay with that quality dad. Dad says he’s furious that Rubina costarred in one of the most popular movies all time and the family got nuthin. It’s called being in an independent movie, sir. You’re supposed to use that exposure to get Rubi a good agent, which will lead to lots of commercials and movies of the week. Duh. This man is not only trying to sell a child, he’s completely mismanaging a promising career. Hang him! For once, I hope Madonna is allowed to buy another kid.
Speaking of baby buying, Madge fell off her horse in the Hamptons Saturday. Her publicist, Liz Rosenberg, was quick to blame a photographer for scaring the horse. Only one problem. The photog, Thomas Hinton, claims that he was on a public road and the view was so bad that he left before the fall. He insists that if there were pictures taken, we would have seen them by now. And knowing the paps as we do, that rings true.
So the question is, where were the paps? We trust them to cover EVERYTHING. I’ve had to sit through weeks of news about Madonna trying to procure another African baby, the least I expect in return is some pics of her getting flung off her horse. Come on paps, do your damn job!
Breitbart Jillian Michaels has always been a charmer. She quit Biggest Loser because she claimed that she was edited to look like an a hole. Then she got her own radio show and every week (yes, I listen occasionally) comes on air and is as fakey nice as she can possibly be. Then she got back on Biggest Loser and though she receives a softer edit these days, still an a hole. Unfortunately, if you have a bit of a hole in you, it will shine through no matter what you do. Trust me. I know from experience. Even when I’m smiling and nodding and making eye contact people think I’m being rude and sarcastic. And they’re right.
Point is, once an a hole, always an a hole. Jillian did an interview recently about Biggest Loser and was caught on mic saying “A normal person, I could be like, ‘Warm up five minutes.’ You’d be like, ‘OK.’ These people are half-dead. I mean, it’s not the same… They are 400 … pounds! Hello! They are not just going to get on the treadmill and run. It doesn’t work that way.” Ok we get that a 400 pound person shouldn’t just start running on the treadmill, but calling them half dead when fat people are the ones lining your fridge with baby carrots is just wrong. And when did being 400 pounds become “half dead” instead of “half full?” The times, they are a changin’. Check out the video here.
Tonight on American Idol Results, a natural disaster.
This hurt us way more than it hurt you.
Tonight on American Idol, Church Lady gets chopped to bits and Krispy Twink is almost raped before being saved by Bruce Willis.
Tink flys down from Heaven and tells us that the contestants have a dream, and “the life of that dream” is in our hands. CRUUUUUUUNCH! YAYYYYYY. Dream killing time! That’s power! And THIS. Is American Idol!
This is the same camera trick Tom Cruise used in War of the Worlds to look taller than Dakota Fanning.
Tonight on American Idol Results, Joss Stone almost blows Smokey and I lose my lunch.
Can I still get breakfast at the mansion?
