Confession: Like so many others in this society, I love celebrities. Gossip blogs are my morning newspapers and evening procrastination, but Twitter is definitely the best because they publish almost every single meal that they order. The entire Hollywood scene is practically like high school in a sense that everyone is always talking about each other, but it’s better: the people being discussed are much easier on the eyes, and the juice that flows between them is much more interesting than topics like prospective prom dates and who has access to (good) alcohol.

But not every celebrity reveals their daily details on the Internet for their fans, and despite society’s obsession with celebrities and my hunger for more, some celebrities still don’t share anything beyond their work in interviews. Earlier this week, interviewers sat down with actor Kevin Spacey to uncover news about his new film, but things quickly heated up when they accused him of lying (by omission) about his sexuality.

“I don’t live a lie,” said Spacey. “You have to understand that people who choose not to discuss their personal lives are not living a lie. That is a presumption that people jump to.” Sure, some of us may have our speculations about his sexuality, just like some of us did about John Travolta, Elton John and Ricky Martin, and just like some of us still do about Keanu Reeves and Tom Cruise. But confirmed information has brought mixed reviews in the past: it has been said to ruin some careers and fuel others to new heights, empowered by accepting audiences, gay and straight.

But as fans, do we have a right to know, or to even guess?

Shizz went down this week: Biebs has a tat, Miley is still a bird, and George Lopez cheated on his wife (the same wife who GAVE HIM HER KIDNEY) with some hookers. You know, just another week.  Anyway, while it pains me that I know so much about the lives of these people, I’m happy to report the deets for all of you. I really am a martyr. You’re welcome.

Golden Nuggets of Information

1. Lindsay Lohan has a warrant out for her arrest with a bail set for $100,000! Lindsay was supposed to appear in court this week, but instead she went to Cannes to promote her new film Deep Throat, which hasn’t even been approved yet. When it was time for her to fly home, her passport was “stolen” but the police have no record of her reporting it stolen! Lindsay sent out an email asking friends for a private jet to get her back to L.A. so she wouldn’t miss her court date, but there was no such luck. (She shoulda called Doug Reinhardt, right?) So when she gets back to the States, she’ll be in the slammer. So….that’s 1 Lohan in jail, 3 to go?

2. Bret Michaels is back in the hospital! Boo, this is bad news! Bret was experiencing numbness in the left side of his body, and doctors found a hole in his heart. The condition is treatable, but he needs to take it easy. Bret is trying to get back to his career and wants to appear on the finale of Celebrity Apprentice, however especially after his recent brain hemorrhage, homeboy needs to rest. Get on that Rock of Love bus better soon, Bret! Read More »

So, I realize that a lot my peers have a strange fixation with this thing called “the summer hook up”. As my friend and co-blogger Sol so eloquently, (actually she just corrected me, it was belligerently) put it;

Solgurl88: IT’S THE SAME THING AS HOOKING UP IN THE WINTER

Solgurl88: how come people never say

Solgurl88: ‘winter hookup!’(?)

I added that question mark in there for ya, buddy. But poor AIM grammar aside, I have to agree with her. A hook up is a hook up, why the classification?

Well, I suppose for people who vacation in a foreign country, or somewhere other than where they normally reside, the ‘summer hook up’ symbolizes the opportunity for a no-strings attached ‘relationship’ of sorts. (Those people are not to be confused with me, I am doomed to work endless summer jobs with either all females or no attractive co-workers for all college eternity.) Read More »

In Hollywood, Scientology is the new black. From Tom Cruise to Kirstie Alley, Hollywood’s elite have embraced Dianetics with open arms and vulnerable bank accounts. Sweeping the nation faster than the Kabbalah, this celebrity endorsed “religion” comes complete with it’s own Celebrity Centre and a vague mythology that thinly veils it’s widely debated absurdity. The green neon lights shine brightly on Hollywood Blvd. seemingly in competition with the trendy bars, night clubs, and lounges that inhabit the historic block.

The rumors of brainwashing and cult status have hardly effected The Celebrity Centre’s “seekers of truth” as they pile in daily to find a path to spiritual enlightenment. Their beliefs seem to fall somewhere between basic human ethics and a science fiction novel, stirring up a wide spread controversy about the agenda of founder L. Ron Hubbard and the financially lucrative empire Scientology has become.

In anticipation of this article I decided to go straight to the sources before embarking on my research. But the more Scientologists I speak to the less I seem to learn about the religion itself. When interviewing a friend of a friend whose parents are active in the Centre and the Congregation, his answers hardly made any sense at all. Read More »

To me, there’s nothing scarier than a scientologist. To live in relative peace, I make it my business to steer clear of the obvious fools like Tom Cruise and John Travolta. Luckily, they’re easy to spot and avoid with their big mouths and bigger bellies. However, the other day I was doing some research on the psycho pseudo – religion and came across a comprehensive list of celebrity scientologists that went way beyond Tom and John.

I was shocked by some of the followers: Beck, Giovanni Ribisi, Jason Lee, Danny Masterson… even Jenna Elfman! I’m going to have to burn my box set of Dharma and Greg. I just don’t get it. These people seem so level – headed… so cool… what gives? Beck? Seriously? Totally lame.

So why do these stars succumb to Scientology? Scientology-Kills.org quotes Giovanni Ribisi as saying: “Without Scientology, I would be in an alley somewhere, looking for dope.” Dude, I think you’d be better off with the dope.

What do you think about Scientology?

John Travolta used to be cool.

I had a HUGE crush on him when I first saw Grease. Like, gigantic. My mom was concerned.

Hard to believe that this is what Danny Zuko looks like now. (Looks like some one’s got a case of the Man Boobs!) And even weirder is how he looks in the upcoming summer movie Hairspray.

I mean, look at him. I’m embarrassed for him.

But worse than John Travolta’s outer appearance is his recent blabberings-on about the horrific events at Columbine and Virginia Tech.

Page Six reports that Travolta said publicly, that all of these tragic school shootings are not really the fault of those who committed the acts, but but on psychiatric drugs. “I still think that if you analyze most of the school shootings, it is not gun control. It is [psychotropic] drugs at the bottom of it,” he said.

This goes along with Scientology, of which Travolta is a devout follower; Tom Cruise, as we all know, is also a major figure in the religion…er…the science…er…belief? Basically, they all believe that all drugs – prescriptive or otherwise – are completely uneccessary and are the root of all evil. Read More »
