Lindsay Lohan: ‘Friends Don’t Let Friends Drink and Drive’

lindsay_lohan_vegasLindsay Lohan must have inherited her dad’s lack of self-awareness, because I can’t otherwise explain why she’s appointing herself a charter member of Celebrities Against Drunk Driving (CADD).

How else can you interpret this Tweet she posted around midnight last night:

note to all: FRIENDS DON’T LET FRIENDS DRINK AND DRIVE
about 8 hours ago from web

What about snorting coke and driving? Do her friends let her do that?

I can’t help but wonder if this is an abdication of responsibility — “my friends didn’t stop me!” — because this isn’t the first time she’s advised against drunk driving.

Obviously the most credible advocate for why drunk driving is bad is someone who does it every Saturday morning. I mean, how else is she supposed to get home from H.Wood? In a cab? Ew.

Footnote: The accompanying photograph was taken at LiLo’s 23rd birthday party in Vegas over the weekend. Twenty-three, you guys.

Michael Jackson Press Frenzy: We Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet

michael_jackson_ripWe’re less than 24 hours out from MJ’s death and already the hangers-on are coming out of the woodwork. Today’s Very Special Sychophant is Brian Oxman, the self-styled Jackson family attorney and spokesman, who spent all last night running around L.A. giving extremely controversial interviews.

“I don’t know what caused Michael’s death, and I don’t want to speculate as to what the causes are,” Oxmon tells Usmagazine.com.

But let me guess: You’re going to do it anyway?

“I only know that I warned them there was the misuse of prescription medications by people who were enabling him; his handlers, folks who should never have been permitted to allow him to use those medications in the manner I observed.”

“So is that the cause of it? I don’t know,” he continues. “People die from various and sundry causes - they have congenital malformations of the heart, they have difficulty with various infections. I don’t know what Michael Jackson’s death is a result of.”

Is there ever a right time to say “I told you so” to a grieving family? Even if there is, do you really think the day of his death is it?

Guys like Brian Oxman make me retch. Not because I’m the biggest MJ fan — I mean, I liked some of his music but I thought it was ultimately overshadowed by his sordid life — but because if you don’t want to speculate? Then don’t. Otherwise you come across like Princess Diana’s butler.

Perez Hilton Accused Michael Jackson of Faking It

mj_perez

So you’ve likely heard that Michael Jackson was rushed to the hospital this afternoon in cardiac arrest. Paramedics had to perform CPR and his family is around him, preparing for the worst.

Speaking of the worst, Perez “Class Act” Hilton took the opportunity to draw the attention to himself on Twitter:

OMG! It’s not looking good for Michael Jackson. Wow. Wow. OMG! No. No. No. That’s so awful. Let’s send him positive vibes! Pull through, MJ!
30 minutes ago from web

Somebody give him his smelling salts and bring him back to reality. For months Perez has been taking potshots at the King of Pop’s health, proclaiming “no one does creepy like Michael Jackson” and asking whether he was “sick in the head or just sick” after a doctor’s visit in February.

The most despicable post, however? Just weeks ago, Perez accused Michael of faking his health problems to get out of his summer tour, sneering:

“Sounds like a set-up to us!”

Give me an effing break, Guy Whose Whole Career Is A Publicity Stunt.

UPDATE: TMZ is now reporting that Michael Jackson has died. RIP.

UPDATE 2: This is what I was looking for but couldn’t find before. The original post on PerezHilton.com regarding MJ’s condition:

“We knew something like this would happen!!
Michael Jackson was taken by ambulance from his Holmby Hills home to a nearby Los Angeles hospital on Thursday afternoon!! Supposedly, the singer went into cardiac arrest and the paramedics had to administer CPR!!!
His mother is even on the way to visit him!!!

We are dubious!!

Jacko pulled a similar stunt when he was getting ready for his big HBO special in ‘95 when he “collapsed” at rehearsal! He was dragging his heels on that just like his upcoming 50 date London residency at the 02 Arena, of which he already postponed the first few dates!!! Either he’s lying or making himself sick, but we’re curious to see if he’s able to go on!!! Get your money back, ticket holders!!!!”

Wow. Wow. OMG.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers Arrested for Another Drunken Fight

jonathan_rhys_meyers_drinkingChronically mean drunk Jonathan Rhys Meyers spent the night in a Parisian jail after assaulting an employee at Charles de Gaulle airport:

The bartender at the café area Le Quotidien in the departure area of the airport at terminal 2F, refused to serve Meyers anymore alcohol. Meyers and the bar manager then began shouting at each other. When a waiter tried to separate the fighting men, Meyers allegedly punched the waiter.

Meyers spent 3 hours in a drunk tank part of the jail to sober-up before being released.

The AFP reports that Rhys Meyers has been told to appear before the Correctional Tribunal in Bobigny in September to answer charges concerning, “voluntary violence, contempt, issuing death threats and assault.”

Sound familiar? It totally is. Boy must have a hobby of punching out airport employees. So much for:

“I would never drink again. It is hard to avoid. But listen, you do what you want to do. I don’t want to do that. I want my career, and you can’t really do that and be successful on the screen.”

Seems like you can if you have lots of people enabling you as the star of a hit cable television series.

Joy Behar Pwns Speidi on The View

heidi_spencer_iacvideoSometimes, like monkeys on keyboards working on Hamlet, the ladies who co-host The View get it right.

Spencer and Heidi Pratt stopped by the show during their post-I’m A Celebrity press tour this morning. I liked when Whoopi Goldberg told them they were going to end up homeless if they keep up their shenanigans, but I loved when Joy Behar hinted she may just read Deceiver.

Joy: I have a question for Heidi because I read a quote that you said your goal is to be a true disciple of Jesus, the aforementioned Lord, and of Mother Teresa, helping the poor and the hungry. Now, I also heard you’re posing for Playboy. Do you think Mother Teresa would have done that?

Heidi: Um, I’m more of a modern version.

Joy: Of Mother Teresa? A modern version of Mother Teresa?

Heidi: I can’t confirm that but you know, it is a very reputable magazine. Many people have done it.

True, but Mother Teresa sure as heck hasn’t.

Besides, does she even realize that Mother Teresa was a 20th century missionary? How much more modern can you get? And the closest Heidi ever got to fulfilling her pledge of humanitarian work in Africa was, well, the NBC-infested jungles of Costa Rica. Where they couldn’t stick it out for more than two days, even in the name of charity. You two are the salt of the earth.

Jesus Loves Heidi Pratt More Than Anyone

heidi_pratt_bikiniJesus must have saved Heidi Pratt from her I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!–induced ulcer, because People is reporting she posed for the September issue of Playboy:

Details of her Playboy photos are, um, scant: “There is nudity. It’s tasteful – she had a lot of fun with it,” says a second source. A rep for the magazine had no comment, and Montag’s rep was not immediately available to respond to questions.

Nothing Heidi Pratt does is tasteful, so I doubt that very much. I just wish she could figure out what her niche is: I-read-the-Bible-every-night good girl or take-it-all-off Playboy bunny.

In fact, I would not be at all surprised if Heidi wondered aloud “What Would Jesus Do?” and Spencer Pratt convinced her “show tits in nudie magazine” would have been on His divine short list.

Mel Gibson Demands Paternity Test on Mistress’s Child

mel_gibson_drunkSo you all know by now how I feel about Mel Gibson and his peculiarly judgy brand of Christianity, so long as it means he gets to wield all the fire and brimstone. You’ve also probably deduced that I feel for Robyn Gibson, his long-suffering wife of 28 years and mother of his first seven children. Normally I’m not one to root for alimony, but after the decades of other women and drunkenness and public humiliation she’s endured, she is entitled to every penny the court makes him pay. She’s earned it.

Anyway, in light of all his infidelity and skeeviness, this development is rich:

Mel Gibson reportedly wants his pregnant girlfriend to take a paternity test because he wants to know if he is the father of her unborn baby.

“Mel really loves Oksana, but he’s a businessman, too. He really had no choice but to ask for a DNA test,” an insider told a tabloid.

Mel’s [kids] are the ones who convinced him to take a paternity test to make sure he is the father.

“Some of Mel’s closest friends in his church convinced him that it’s the practical thing to do. There’s just too much at stake,” the insider added.

“Mel doesn’t believe that Oksana has been with anyone else, but after hearing misgivings from his children and friends, he decided he had no choice. Oksana wasn’t happy about it, but once her baby is born, there will be a paternity test.”

How nice of him to force his mistress to undergo a paternity test. I understand that his fortune is at stake, but he of all people really needs to get off his fidelity high horse.

Perez Hilton Takes a Swipe at Gordon Ramsay’s ‘Sexist’ Comments

perez_hilton_dlebrityOkay, so Gordon Ramsay is maybe not the most tactful guy in the world. It doesn’t take a hair trigger to be offended by his comments about Australian journalist Tracy Grimshaw. At a food and wine festival over the weekend, Ramsay said she needed Botox and called her an old ugly lesbian pig.

But then Perez Hilton, the newly self-appointed defender of all things gay, took mighty umbrage at Ramsay’s comments. He dedicated a whole post to Ramsay’s political incorrectness, signing off with a quote from some dyed-in-the-wool feminists:

“Ramsay’s sexist and demeaning actions are offensive to every Australian woman,” Melinda Tankard Reist, spokeswoman for Women’s Forum Australia ranted to reporters.

She continued: “Why should he get paid for depicting a woman as an animal and publicly deriding her looks? He shouldn’t be making money through the verbal abuse of women.”

We couldn’t agree more!!!

Except, Perez? You’ve built an entire media empire on verbally abusing women. You made your niche by drawing sperm on actresses’ faces, for chrissakes. In fact, two posts before his takedown of Ramsay, Perez gave Evan Rachel Wood precisely that MacPaint treatment and called her a “whore” for good measure. And surely he remembers publicly deriding Kirstie Alley’s looks via Twitter a scant four weeks ago? Or calling singer Charlotte Church “a fat cow”?

I mean, I could fill an entire day digging up the insults and barnyard-animal comparisons he’s personally used against women on his website, but I have to eat lunch soon. Perhaps I should order in from one of Ramsay’s restaurants, just on principle.

Mel Gibson Threatens Churchgoers With Eternal Damnation

mel_gibson_oksana2Mel Gibson, who is in the process of divorcing his faithful wife of 28 years, has ordered parishioners at the church he attends to stop gossiping about him or else they will suffer hellfire and eternal damnation.

In response, one expert in traditionalist Catholicism talked to People magazine about the religious pickle Mel is in now that he’s confirmed reports that his mistress Oksana Grigorieva is carrying his illegitimate baby.

Can Gibson take Communion?
A traditionalist Catholic who is married to one woman but is conducting a romance with another is considered an adulterer, and in violation of one of the Ten Commandments. Until he turns away from that violation by ending the offending activity, and confessing his sin, he would remain ineligible for Communion.

“It would be heartbreaking for Gibson,” says a traditionalist Catholic priest who has celebrated Mass at Gibson’s chapel but prefers not to be named. “We have sympathy for a person in that situation.”

Can Gibson annul his marriage?
The Catholic Church grants many annulments. Previously, an annulment was allowed when a marriage was not consummated, when it was forced on one of the parties or when the vows were judged illegitimate for reasons such as mental illness. Today, church tribunals are more lenient and help find ways to keep divorced Catholics hoping to remarry in the fold. But Gibson, who was married in the mainstream Catholic church, has another problem to contend with. He would have to apply to an authority, the Vatican, that doesn’t recognize his own congregation. That would make for an awkward request, experts say, but the official church might still decide to consider it.

Sunday’s homily should be about the parable of the famous movie star who doesn’t understand why he can’t just have everything he wants.

Heidi & Spencer Pull Major Diva Act in Costa Rica

heidi_montag_makeupfreeThe Hills celebutards Heidi and Spencer Pratt faced inhumane treatment in Costa Rica on the very first day of filming NBC reality show I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!, which premieres today.

Apparently Heidi was denied extensions and eyeliner.

“They wanted to be treated like stars,” a high-level source on the series tells E! News’ Ryan Seacrest. “[Spencer] literally thought he and Heidi were staying in a Four Seasons, working out and getting a tan.”

The two refused to eat the same food as the rest of the cast, and complained about being teamed with low-wattage stars, among them former model/reality-show queen Janice Dickinson, actors Stephen Baldwin and Lou Diamond Phillips, former NBA star John Salley and American Idol castoff Sanjaya Malakar. An NBC exec had to coax the newlyweds to remain on board.

“I wish they got some real celebrities like K-Fed,” groused Montag, per the network insider.

K-Fed trumps The World’s First Supermodel? In what universe?

This display of entitled delusion really makes me believe the Pratts have no concept of how to keep it real. Man of the people my behind. Btw, have you all seen Spencer’s music video for his ear-splitting rap song named after I’m A Celebrity…? Do yourself a favor and don’t click here.
