Stars Branching Out (And it Ain’t Pretty)

Not again… Victoria Beckham went from being a model to a singer to the subject of a reality TV series to earning a bit part on a popular network series and now the 34-year-old Spice Girl is headed to the big screen. UGH! Hold on a minute and you might understand why David Beckham’s wife is set to make her movie debut in “Hardy Men.” According to reports, she was personally hired by the film’s star Tom Cruise. Which just goes to show you that it’s not what you know, but who you know in Hollywood that guarantees work. According … Continue reading →

Summer Lovin’: Cruise and Redstone

So much for the much-hyped Hollywood divorce. It appears mega movie star Tom Cruise and mega movie mogul Sumner Redstone have decided to kiss and make up. You’ll recall the two power brokers parted ways in 2006 after 14 years together. Redstone, the executive chairman and controlling shareholder of Viacom Inc., and Cruise went through a bitter and very public split in the summer of 2006 when the movie guru kicked the actor and his producing partner off the Paramount Pictures lot (Viacom is Paramount’s parent company) and ended their multi-million dollar deal to develop projects for the studio. Well, … Continue reading →

Famous Oprah Moments – Part 1

Posted on by

If you read one of Michele’s recent blogs, you know that Tom Cruise is appearing on the Oprah show again. This is the first time since his infamous couch-jumping incident. When Oprah asked him if he would take it back if he could, Cruise replied, “It was a moment and it was real” and “I just felt that way…That was just how I felt.” I am assuming that is a no. Then, Tom playfully accused Oprah of egging him on. This time, there was no manic couch jumping as Cruise put on the cruise control. But, there have been more … Continue reading →

They’re Baaack: Cher and Tina Turner

Posted on by

Ah, Cher and Tina Turner…does it get any more classic that that? These two ladies could sing and entertain circles around most performers today. And, what careers they have had! If the Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohans of the world want to know how to thrive and survive in the show business world, they could definitely take a few cues from these ladies. Both singers are now in their sixties (Cher is 61 and Tina is an amazing 68). Both have been taking it easy later – after all, after momentous careers, they both deserve it. But, this week, both … Continue reading →

Hit Me Baby One More Time

They’re baaaack! Two of Hollywood’s biggest stars are returning to the big screen in roles that gave their egos–and their banks accounts–big lifts. First up, Tom Cruise. Suri’s daddy is planning to flex his muscles again in a fourth Mission: Impossible flick. Several news sources have confirmed that Cruise is heading back to Paramount to make the sequel. In doing so the movie star has presumably made amends with studio mogul, Sumner Redstone, the Hollywood movie bigwig who dropped Cruise’s production company from Paramount a couple years back. The nasty split made headlines and prompted Cruise to revamp the United … Continue reading →

Tom Cruising Back to Oprah’s Couch

Oprah Winfrey’s staff has had nearly three years to get the shoe prints off the expensive couch Tom Cruise jumped on while expressing his affections for Katie Holmes. Back then the two had just begun dating. Now Cruise and Holmes are married and the parents to 2-year-old daughter Suri. And you can expect to hear all about the Cruise clan when Tom returns to “The Oprah Winfrey Show” next week. Though, luckily for cleaning crews they won’t need to work overtime to stain guard the show’s furniture since producers say the first of the two-part interview was taped at the … Continue reading →

Jason Beghe Disses Scientology

Do you remember when the Tom Cruise video about Scientology was circulating a few months ago? He seemed almost manically gleeful when talking about the overall greatness of Scientology and spoke about how only Scientologists could save the world. Well, now a former Scientologist has released his own Youtube video, only this one expresses the exact opposite opinions of Scientology. While Tom sang the praises of Scientology, actor Jason Beghe has apparently had enough. This week, the actor called Scientology “destructive” and said it was a “rip-off” on a Youtube interview with Veronica Schmidt. Beghe is best known for his … Continue reading →

Well, You Just Never Know: A Few Good Men

I was on the treadmill tonight (yes, a miracle I know) when a commercial came on television. Normally, this would be the time to flip over to my alternate channel, you know, the one I visit so I don’t have to watch commercials. But, since my husband, the commercial fanatic, was in the room, I left it on. I tuned out and turned up the treadmill, so I really couldn’t hear the commercial, but I heard Randy say “I didn’t know that.” I looked up and saw the commercial was for a law firm and it said something about “When … Continue reading →

Pop Culture Potpourri: Britney and Justin’s Summer Reunion and Tom Cruise Jr.

I filed this one under: “I’ll believe it when I see it.” Life & Style magazine is reporting that Justin Timberlake has agreed to meet up with his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears at… get this… a Spears family barbecue this summer. According to the magazine, Brit’s dad/conservator Jamie Spears was the one who begged (I mean asked) the “SexyBack” singer to meet with his daughter in a neutral and “laid-back” environment. Sources tell the magazine that papa Spears is hoping Timberlake can further aid his reforming pop wreck of a daughter as she deals with her mental health problems and gets … Continue reading →
