Carrie Underwood Sort Of Apologizes to Jessica Simpson

Carrie Underwood showed her catty side this summer when she tortured Jessica Simpson with a statement about how she and Tony Romo still chat covertly. (Jessica denied the claim, saying “I looked at his call log,” apparently not knowing that you never ever admit that.)

Well now Carrie says she’s deeply sorry and she’s not that girl. In the December issue of Elle magazine:

“It was something that was said in passing, and I would never mean to say anything to hurt anybody or stir up anything, because I’m just not about drama…at all.”

Funny then that in the same interview, she talks about how personal drama is essential to a Hollywood career:

“All celebrities have to be involved in drama — or they’re not celebrities! There must be something wrong with ‘em! … I knew what I was signing up for, and I’m not complaining at all. I’ve learned how to deal with it, and my life is great, I’m a happy person. What are you going to do? Give it all up? No!”

Kind of sounds she knows exactly how to get some magazine covers between albums, doesn’t it?

Who’s Gonna Build Your Skyscrapers?

Almost a year ago, we told you about how the famously eco-conscious Bono and U2 were building a 32-story apartment building in Dublin called the U2 Tower. Which was funny because the tower was to be built right at the mouth of Dublin Bay, where, if Bono actually believes the things that come out of his mouth, rising sea levels might make it a bit of a mess.

Well, the good news for Bono is that he no longer has to think of an excuse for hating the planet:

Plans to build Ireland’s tallest building, a $250 million Dublin skyscraper that would include a recording studio for the band U2, have been put on hold, The Associated Press reported. The Dublin Docklands Development Authority said Friday that it was still committed to the U2 Tower by the River Liffey but that for now it had suspended negotiations with possible developers because of the grim economic environment. The building, designed by the British architect Norman Foster, is to include luxury apartments and, at the top, a suspended pod that will house the recording studio.

I always thought Bono could suspend himself in midair anyway.
