Good for the NY Post! Also, I don’t blame the Transformers crew one bit. Megan Fox is really dumb and if anyone is going to ruin her career, it’s her and her big mouth.
i don’t blame the transformers crew either. she comes across as not being the sharpest knife in the drawer. & her new movie coming out – i don’t even remember the name, looks lamo. she got lucky w/ transformers. i don’t think she’ll last.
I think you and any of your entertainment blogging friends should follow suit with NY Post. He is a JERK and needs to realize that without the public, he is NOTHING! DOWN WITH KANYE!
@everyone — I’m not going to make a declaration but I sincerely doubt I’ll be providing coverage of Kanye West on my blog anymore.
I second the motion to follow their footsteps and refuse to post anything Kanye related—please realize he is a douche far beyond Speidi (not that I’m saying to bring them back by any means) and we can all live without seeing him on here!
@Trent – it’s Michael Douglas playing Liberace. ;D
Say what you will but the topless pics and scenes of Megan Fox will surely change just about anyone’s mind.

Heh heh – thats what I thought!
i love me some Angelina, but those refugees look healthier than she does. good grief!
Pfff Serena, the damage is done.
And Angelina, eeeh, she’s too skinny, it’s scary.
@Trent – I support your boycotting of anything and everything Kanye!
I was able to read the letter from the crew of the Transformers movie yesterday before it was taken down. If what they are charging her with is true, then she is NOT a nice person at all. I would be so embarrassed if I was her!
Trent, please don’t call Angelina a saint. She’s not. Yes, she does help refugees, but is also accompanied by photographers. Why does she need them there all the time? It just comes across as a little fake, but maybe that’s just to me.
And yes, definately boycott Kanye…what a complete arsehole.
Amy Winehouse is 26?!? Scarrry…
Thank you for also ignoring Kanye. He’s got issues. I can not believe he’d storm onstage when another performer was receiving their award and steal their spotlight. HIS opinion doesn’t matter on it. He’s not the only one who gets to decide who has a great video. Besides, Beyonce won another award later so it’s not like she was stiffed on the show whatsoever.
OMG free Kelly Clarkson tickets?! I’m there! Thanks so much!
GOOD FOR THE NY POST and good for you, Trent, if you refuse to provide any more coverage of that ass.
I don’t CARE that he is going on Leno to apologize. You don’t pull crap like that and ruin a moment that cannot be recaptured. The beauty of it is, if someone had done that to Kanye or Beyonce, what would HE be screaming……
I would have loved to have seen Taylor Swift’s momma get him…..whhooooeeeee! hahah! I like Katy Perry’s response—”It’s like you stepped on a kitten.”
Someone needs to inform Micha Barton that her pooch is not doing a good job — that girl is coo coo for Coco Puffs!
OMG TRENT. JANET’S SONG = AMAZING
—
I don’t think it will be her first single. Just like a b-side or promotional. May make the album. But it’s just so classic Janet. The Janet we have always remembered. Not like she went anywhere or lost any of her Janetness (I Looooooove Discipline) but this takes us waaaaay back. (Sad to see American’s, no offence, cannot get over a stunt like the Superbowl, bit pathetic i believe)

Anyway, it gives a shoutout to Michael in the song to one of his greatest songs. Her performance was just epic as shit! I cannot wait for her new album.

I will mention it. But i can tell a lot of people will be bringing up Michaels death. For example, if Janets album does considerably well, a lot will say MJ’s death brought her success back. She stated that working has got her through this very tough time. I don’t blame her for getting back into the studio (with her old pals) to make great music. She’s a Jackson. MJ’s death has put a lot of the spotlight back onto her and her family, but i know without KNOWING Janet, she would never catapult on her brothers death to garner more success/self-promotion.

With Kanye, Trent you have never really blogged about him much so it won’t be any loss. There is no denying his talent, a lot have been labeling him s talentless crap after the incident, but he does have a lo of talent. Unfortunately he lets his major ego & the one talent he don’t have, which is keeping his mouth shut and thinking before speaking or acting upon a situation. His daily life doesn’t interest me, only his music.
