Yeah, K-Fed going to the BBQ is a little weird considering how messy his and Brit's divorce was, but overall I'm not too offended by it. It's nice to see that Brit and K-Fed can put aside their differences for the sake of their children. Some celeb ex's can take a page out of their book, like Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards and Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger.
Good for Geri, but apparently they were only dating for a couple of weeks so we shall see how that goes.
I like Daniel Radcliff, he is very attractive, but seeing as how he is only like 5'6" he is too short for me. I'm 6'3" and that's too short, sorry.
I like Raven Simone because even though she is large and in charge she is confident and likes herself. Have you noticed how no one really mentions her weight. Is it because she is not a huge star or do they just not care about it?
Speaking of weight it looks as though Jessica Simpson has gained some and seems to follow the mantra of "Everything is bigger in Texas." What happened with her? I was never a fan of her anyway but her career has taken a nosedive since she divorced Nick, not that he has done that much better. Her career was in the toilet before she asked if Chicken of the Sea was chicken or tuna, so maybe she needs to do another reality show. Not that I'd watch it but for her careers sake maybe she should do it.
I like Donny Osmond, because he doesn't let his being a mormon make him a conservative bigot. I don't watch "Dancing With the Stars" but he is definitely made for that show so I wish him luck. Apparently K-Fed is also in talks to do DWTS as is Sherri Shephard.
I don't really care that much about SJP and Matthew Broderick but if they stay to gether thats great. I like they both seperately but in terms of power couple status they don't tickle my fancy. Now if Brad and Angelina broke up or Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner divorced I'd be heartbroken. Speaking of Reese, do you like her being with Jake Gyllenhaal?
So, Madonna is still with A-Rod and is resuming her "Stick and Sweet Tour" in the summer. Even though the economy is in the toilet I think that people will shell out money to see her. She is of the same cloth of performers who still attract crowds like Cher and Britney. Janet Jackson is reportedly postponing the international leg of her "Rockwitu Tour" due to the economic crisis but I think that is the vertigo excuse of 2009.
So, what did you think of Teri Hatcher's dress at the Screen Actors Guild Awards? I liked it but it's getting mixed reviews. People are either saying it was one of the best of the night or that it was a complete red carpet trainwreck.

I have a picture of the two of us at prom, but my face is weird, we'll get together and do a pic over break.

Lets see: Mary Kate pregnat, I can't see it...if she were I'd be shocked but I think that she is just putting on some weight and good for her.

Cameron Diaz is definitely not my favorite actress by any stretch of imagination but she can be good performance like she did in "Being John Malcovitch" but that was ten years ago. Who knows, maybe she'll pull it off. I haven't read "My Sister's Keeper" but I hear that all of her books are good. I wouldn't recast "Titanic" it'd be like saying that you could make "Gone With the Wind" without Vivian Leigh, Clarke Gable, Olivia de Havilland and Hattie McDaniel, it's just not possible. There are a few film's I would recast, but I can't remember them at the top of my head.

I think I was curious about Janet because she was really successful, but she can't really keep up with the rest of the R&B/pop females of today, which is interesting because many of them were partially inspired by her (and of course Madonna). So it's strange that she is now copying them when they got their start by copying her. The wardrobe malfunction probably had something to do with it, cast her in a negative light that she hasn't been able to avoid but I think overall the Superbowl performance was entirely overblown! She got all the blame because it was her boob while Justin Timberlake got in like flynn and it's not fair. Probably because she's a woman and he's a man....

So, LK, based on the list, any surprises, disappointments and based on what you've seen and read what do you expect.

I'm not really sure what I think about Miley, I definitely don't love her but I don't have it out for her. I think it's good that she is starting to break out of the Disney star mode now, that way she won't have to do so when she is 20. I agree with you about the Vanity Fair photoshoot. Not only was it entirely too overblown, they were not lewd photographs. Additonally it was Annie Liebowitz, not some porn photographer. Not many 15 year olds have the oppertunity to be photographed by her and for Vanity Fair, so that was ridiculous.
Amy Poehler and Will Arnet are hysterical, I didn't know that you liked "Arrested Development" that show was so underrated and HI-larious! The twin sister is a huge fan of the show, funny side note: she thinks Liza Minnelli is cool not because of "Cabaret" or she other stuff but because she is Lucille Austero in "Arrested Development" and I hear they might be making a movie.
Question, if they make a movie out of "Arrested Development" with the original cast would you see it? Additionally, what other television shows would you like to see made into a feature film?

So, today I was listening to Janet Jackson and I'm still confused as to what happened to her? Here is someone who became famous enough to not be compared to her brother, has ten number one singles, five Grammy Awards, and her albums "Control", "Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814", "Janet", "The Velvet Rope" and "All For You" were excellent multi-platinum best sellers. So why is it that her music career is not what it used to be? Was it the wardrobe malfunction, not reinventing herself like Madonna, or did people just lose interest? I have my own thoughts but I wanted to see what you (LK) and other readers have to say. So leave your comments and thoughts!
