Here’s Katherine Heigl last November, standing behind the writers of Grey’s Anatomy:

And now here’s Katherine Heigl in today’s Gold Derby blog at the LA Times, standing behind those same writers and throwing them under a bus:
“I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organization, I withdrew my name from contention. In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials.”
That’s right, after her surprise Emmy win for Best Supporting Actress last year, she’s taking her ball and going home because she didn’t get enough face time on her stupid show. And she’s publicly blaming the writers she claimed to respect not too long ago. Smart. Well, it’s just par for the course, isn’t it?
The ride doesn’t last forever, Katherine. Two words: Shelly. Long.

So we know that the Planet Green network is relying on celebrities like infamous carbon-hog Leo DiCaprio to spread their message of saving the planet through sanctimony. But did you know who Planet Green’s “exclusive automobile sponsor” is?

And of course, you know what GM manufactures:

Save the Earth, buy a Hummer.

Sometimes it’s hard to be Oprah.
Just two weeks into her vegan diet, she lost her personal chef. Let us all take a moment of silence as Oprah tells her tale of woe:
Tal left…the void is immense. I’m in New York trying to make do. First of all, he had one of the nicest, calmest, sweetest spirits I’ve ever encountered in a man. His loving energy came through his food. I think that’s why we were all so soothed and nurtured by it and looked forward to every meal.
I had CEO search interviews all day yesterday and had food brought in from a local favorite vegan restaurant. It was very good—lots of choices, but not the same energy as Tal. Interesting that we all felt the loving energy of his food and all commented on that in different ways.
Yesterday, I had a black bean burger with the fixin’s for lunch and some kind of dairy-free yogurt and gluten-free granola for breakfast.
Well, the black bean burger—while delicious—is still with me. I didn’t eat dinner. I felt, and still feel a day later, like a black bean balloon. Soooo bloated. And today I have a photo shoot all day for the magazine!
Horrors. How is a woman supposed to eat when no one’s there in your kitchen to prepare your meals for you?
And that was posted on Saturday. She could be half starved by now! Quick, someone get her some real food, stat!
So remember Glitter? Of course you don’t. But to summarize, in Mariah Carey’s ill-fated autobiographical vanity project, she portrays a young singer just trying to make it big without losing herself in a vain and materialistic industry.
No wonder no one went to see that trash. That plot has been contradicted every day of her life.
Just in case you were worried that Mariah was starving in the streets, she and Nick Cannon (or has he taken her last name by now?) have registered at Bergdorf Goodman. Her assistant sent an email out to 100 of her closest, wealthiest friends to alert them of the fact, even though those pals were not invited to her wedding.
According to a source:
“It’s odd because she’s not even having a big wedding party or anything. It was assumed they’d have a big celebration when they got back, but no. They just want the gifts.” On the list are “fine china, very expensive silver stemware” and other items.
What’s so odd about it? I find nothing about this surprising in the least.
