I’ll admit it. I have never actually watched this show before. I am slowly catching up with all the random reality shows that are out there for our viewing pleasure. So why am I watching it this season? Well, while watching The Bachelor’s “After the Final Rose” show with Chris Harrison, the new lineup for Dancing With The Stars was announced, and surprise surprise…our very own ‘no longer bachelor’ Jake Pavelka will be shaking his tiny pilot booty along with the other “stars”.
Now before I go any further, I have to say that I am a little bit upset. Mr. Pavelka is just kind of annoying to me now, yes we get it… you are head over heels in love with a cross eyed idiot with no fashion sense. We get it! Shut up already. The other thing that bothers me, is that he is paired up with one of the most talented and amazing dancers I have ever seen. Chelsie Hightower was one of the semi finalists on the 4th season of So You Think You Can Dance and I love love love her! Plus… look at the picture, unlike every single couple in the gallery below, Jake and Chelsie are not even touching each other… isn’t that weird? Maybe Vienna told him that she’ll cut off his manhood or something. I wouldn’t put it past her. Now lets go to the other 10 contestants shall we:
Aiden Turner – Personally, I have never heard of him until today. And today is a pretty good day. This steaming hot British guy is not just a Soap Opera star ladies, he is a chef, a DJ, a world traveler and now a Dancing With The Stars contestant. Does it get any better than that? Well he is paired up with Polish ballroom dancer Edyta Sliwinska, so lets see if he can add professional dancer to his resume.
Buzz Aldrin – He might have been the second man on the moon but his dance talent is still a mystery. Until today. Buzz is no longer just an astronaut, scientist, inventor and best-selling author. You’d think that he would be enough for him but it’s not. Hey, some people just want to shoot the moon. (:-) I made a funny). Fun Fact #1: In case you were wondering, Toy Story’s Buzz Lightyear, was in fact named after yours truly. Fun Fact #2: The MTV Music Video Award, “The Moonman” was originally called “The Buzzy” and is shaped in his image. Buzz is paired up with self-proclaimed “Utah County Mormon”, Ashly Costa. So shake your groove thang, you 80 year old spaceman, I’m rooting for you.
Chad Ochocinco – That’s an interesting name you say? Well, his real name is actually Chad Johnson, but it was legally changed to Ochocinco (85 in Spanish) because that is his jersey number. How original. Ochocinco is an NFL wide receiver, completing his ninth season with the Cincinnati Bengals. He holds the franchise record for most receiving yards in a season, most receiving yards of all time, the most receptions, the most receiving yards in a game, the most seasons with over 1,000 receiving yards and the most touchdowns in a game. Wow… try saying that in one breath. Paired up with the first two-time DWTS champion Cheryl Burke, he might have a pretty good shot at this dancing thing too.
Erin Andrews – Probably the prettiest sideline reporter ESPN has, Erin has given it to you straight from the network’s NHL coverage, ESPN College Football Saturday telecasts, Saturday Prime-time college basketball games, Big Ten college basketball coverage, ESPN College Football Primetime series on Thursday nights and added Major League Baseball sideline reporting to her responsibilities, including the Monday Night Baseball telecasts. But don’t catalog her as a tomboy… Erin graduated from the University of Florida where she was a member of the Gators’ basketball dance team from 1997-2000. Paired up with Ukrainian Latin Ballroom dance champion, choreographer and instructor Maksim Chmerkovskiy. Let’s see if these two can make some magic together.
So somehow, someway, Mrs. Smith was able to grapple her hooks into me and make me watch the last five or six episodes of this season of The Bachelor. Honestly speaking, I’ve always thought of the idea to be extremely stupid. Forcing love on one person by choosing 25 strangers they’ve never met and allowing them to spend a few hours a day with them for a few months is a great way to staff divorce lawyers in my opinion. Be that as it may, I recognize the flash and dash and why the show continues to be successful, Because watching beautiful people live the beautiful life and find true love is what each and every American dreams of. But after watching last night’s finale, I found myself turning away from the television in disgust. Enough is enough.
If you’re a frequent reader of our blog, then you know I have a sweet tooth for the horror movie genre. Not so much for the blood and guts aspect of the crap a lot of directors are putting out today but more for the original ideas and psychological aspect. I can withstand anything a movie throws at me because I know, no matter what, it’s for show. The gore, the body parts, ehh, been there done that. The Bachelor on the other hand is real life for some. You follow the characters, you learn their stories and then you pick someone who you want to “win”.
In last nights finale, there were two women left vying for Jake’s proposal and an unarguable fact was that Tenley is the sweeter of the two. Sadly, you also know that she was married once and had a douche of a husband, so if she’s not selected by Jake, the train most certainly will come off of the tracks. Anyone following The Bachelor, probably knew that Vienna was the choice before it happened and the episode clearly showed that Jake was undoubtedly going that way, but when it came time to get down on one knee, I have to admit, I actually was pulling for Tenley.
Then it happened. All of the reasons I never wanted to watch this inane show in the first place we’re broadcast across the country when Jake delivered the crushing blow to the one woman out of 25 that simply could not take it. What made it worse, was the chatter from Tenley walking up to the podium, knowing that she was the one Jake was going to pick. The horror! I found myself not even being able to watch as a woman who had her heart broken once, simply had it ripped out of her chest this time around. The tears that ran down her face almost brought me, a manly man, to tears. Just awful.
Now I’m not as naive as you may think. I know that by going on a show like this, you leave the possibility open that you fall in love and don’t make it all the way to top dog. I have to imagine, that Tenley’s family begged her not to go on this show because of this very reason. With that said, no one deserves this. Certainly not a girl as nice as Tenley. THEN, if that wasn’t enough, she got to relive the moment over and over again during the recap after-show.
Will Jake and Vienna’s love last? Long shot. Would Jake and Tenley’s love had lasted? Even longer shot. But that’s not the point. The Bachelor is a show with no chance of a happy ending and a 100% chance of a lot of broken hearts. Sure it makes for excellent television but I’ll take the happy endings every day of the week and twice on Sundays. No more Bachelor for me!
There have been many rumors floating around,that Simon Cowell has in fact proposed to his girlfriend Mezhgan Hussainy. These rumors had been somewhat put to rest by Simon Cowell’s publicist Max Clifford two weeks ago, when he said that he spoke to Simon in London and asked him: “Look, are you engaged? Is it true?” and Simon said “No! No. I’m not engaged.” Well it might have been true then, but now I’m not so sure.
In the picture to the right, you can see American Idol producer and judge, Simon Cowell (50), with his recent main squeeze, Afghan-born American Idol make up artist Mezhgan Hussainy (36), at Sony Music offices in Beverly Hills, CA. on February 28th. What’s in the top right corner you ask? Well that would be the huge diamond ring that Hussainy was sporting on that special ring finger.
That huge rock might be a statement all on it’s own… but we would still like an official announcement! Thanks in advance Mr. Cowell.
I can only imagine that after last night’s Bachelor episode, there were women passing out left and right. Don’t worry you are not alone. Last night on The Bachelor, Ali, who left Jake for fear of being fired from her job if she stayed, pleaded Jake to come back but unfortunately was brutally DENIED! I was soooo pissed. So what’s the next step for Ali? Aahh go on the Ellen DeGeneres show and tell the world what really happened of course.
So check this out, at the end of the episode I turned to Mr. Smith and said “I bet you a million dollars that Ali will be the next Bachelorette” and today it’s all over the internet. Not only did Jake make a huge mistake by not letting Ali come back but now rumors are surfacing that Gia had another man at home (But who cares, she went home last night) and that Vienna is still in love with her ex-boyfriend in Florida, not to mention all the wild pictures of her, like licking whip cream of another girls chest.
Good luck Jake… Thanks for employing the gossip mags of America (If you pick Vienna). Which he might.
So I have been hearing rumors that this seasons Bachelor finale will shock and disappoint everyone. And what will disappoint everyone more than anything? Vienna. I don’t normally watch the Bachelor, or the Bachelorette for that matter. I happened to see the last few episodes of Jillian’s quest for love, and started watching Jake when he had about 10 girls left, now he’s down to 3… or is it 4?
On the last episode of The Bachelor, Jake had to get rid of one more girl, but unfortunately did not get a chance because Ali (My favorite) was given an ultimatum by her job and was forced to leave the show for fear she would get fired. Jake kept saying that it broke his heart when Ali left, but previews of the next episode suggest that Ali might be coming back. Hey… it worked for Ed didn’t it!?!
Now let’s get back to the rumors… ABC had made no effort to conceal the identity of Jake’s bride of choice and rumors have been saying that Vienna will in fact be the winner. Vienna has been proclaimed the most hated girl in the house, especially by my girl Ali. Jake however did not want to listen to gossip or other girls opinions and has kept her in the race, claiming that he’s feelings for her are real.
Personally, I think she is an idiot, she is too young, she is spoiled and she definitely does not deserve him. I really think that he is a nice descent guy, and Vienna is just so not right for him. Ali is so pretty and I think that they are definitely perfect for each other. So ABC thinks that we will be disappointed; that is not even close to what we will be. More like outraged. If he picks Vienna, I am boycotting The Bachelor. The End.
Superbowl ring that is . For those of you who just crawled out from under a rock, Superbowl XLIV (44) was played in Miami last night. Unlike back in the day, the Superbowl is no longer just a football game, it is also a day when all the hottest celebrities get together and party till the sun comes up. This year the battle of the Superbowl was not just between the New Orléans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts… the real fight was between Keeping Up With The Kardashians star Kim Kardashian (Who’s dating New Orléans Saint Reggie Bush) and The Girls Next Door/Kendra star Kendra Wilkinson (Who just married Indianapolis Colt Hank Baskett). It was the battle of the E! reality shows.
And finally Kim Kardashian gets something. I mean common, Kourtney just had a baby, Khloe just got married and Kendra got married and had a baby… it’s only fair that Kim’s boyfriend, Reggie Bush, wins the Superbowl. After all,Reggie Bush actually participated in the game, unlike Kendra’s man, Hank Baskett, who totally F’d up the only play they let him take part in.
Congrats Kim! Ahm I mean Reggie… I mean… the New Orléans Saints!!!
First of all, lets analyze what a hoarder is exactly. Here is the description according to Wiki:
“Compulsive hoarding (or pathological hoarding or disposophobia or the Messie mindset) is a mental disorder marked by an obsessive need to acquire (and failure to use or discard) a significant amount of possessions, even if the items are worthless, hazardous, or unsanitary. Compulsive hoarding causes significant clutter and impairment to basic living activities, including mobility, cooking, cleaning, showering, and sleeping. A person who engages in compulsive hoarding is commonly said to be a “pack rat”, in reference to that animal’s apparent fondness for material objects.”
The question on everyone’s mind is, is Lindsey actually disturbed or is she just really rich and has no time to organize all the crap she buys. Well, I seem to disagree with the second statement. All celebrities are rich, but i’m pretty sure they don’t just through all their stuff in a room and forget about it. You have money… hire someone to organize all your stuff, add another room to your million dollar mansion and use it strictly for closet space! Just check out these celebrity closets from InStyle magazine; they look nothing like Lindsey Lohan’s mess.
According to a clinical psychologist that interviewed for PopEater.com, “Lohan is filling an emotional void and channeling her search to find perfectionism, as well as the fact that she is showing an over attachment to objects rather than intimate relationships which may be lacking in her life. Typically hoarders place a high emotional value on items that may represent a high point in their life or even cover up emotional pain like not feeling loved as a child.”
Look, I used to be a huge fan of Lindsey and always thought she was pretty cool but lately she just looks so crazy and dirty. Seriously… every time she takes a picture, it looks like she has dirt on her face, she shouldn’t be hoarding shoes, she should be hoarding some face wash. And last but not least, if she is going on a show that documents hoarders… SHE’S A HOARDER! The Insider had Niecy Nash (Whom you probably know as Bonita the school principal from The Bernie Mac Show) from Clean House explain what went down.
Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, Kim Kardashian, is officially here. Miss Kardashian was actually supposed to arrive last night, but due to some mechanical problems with the plane, Kim had to change planes and officially arrived in Miami this afternoon. Kim is in town to support her football star boyfriend, Reggie Bush, who plays for The New Orléans Saints this Sunday on Superbowl night.
Kim is very happy to be in sunny Miami, tweeting “Going to be such a fun week!”, and even mentioned that Miami so beautiful, she might have to get a little place of her own here.
The funny thing is, that E!’s other sweetheart, Kendra Wilkinson, is going to be rooting for her football star boyfriend, Hank Baskett, who is playing for the Indianapolis Cults. Now Mr. Smith is saying that Hank Baskett will probably not be playing since he had only participated in like 4 plays this year, but hey you never know.
What am I excited about? Kim Kardashian’s fabulous thigh length boots. Talk about F me boots. Miss KK is looking hot, even when she just steps off the plane. Jealous.
Now Reggie has to win. Even though Mr. Smith is routing for Indianapolis.
This is more than just the Superbowl people… this is battle of the E! reality shows.
Looks like a certain someone named Tamra is happier than Lady Gaga at a recycling center. After episodes and episodes of accusing Gretchen of cheating on her late rich hubby Jeff Beitzel while he was dying in the hospital, the truth finally comes out. The major feud on The Real Housewives of Orange County, between Gretchen Rossi and Tamra Barney, all happened because Tamra received a phone call from Gretchen’s supposed ex-boyfriend, who stated that him and Gretchen have been dating for a year, all while her husband Jeff was fighting for his life. Gretchen denied all accusations pretty profusely, and so the feud began.
Well, it looks like Gretchen’s past is coming back to bite her in the ass. The supposed midnight caller, Jay Photoglou, is now suing Gretchen for libel and slander. Photoglou is claiming that Rossi damaged his personal and business reputation by calling him a liar, a stalker and a thief.
Now the question is, did she have to lie and deny her relationship with this Jay guy because the producers told her to? Or did she lie to protect her own reputation and not be named a liar and a cheater?
I recently saw a very unflattering picture of Kristin Cavallari on People.com and honestly was not surprised. The Laguna Beach star who recently joined the cast of The Hills has been spotted earlier this month in Las Vegas, celebrating her 23rd birthday.
Kristin moved to Laguna Beach, California to live with her father and her brother after her parents divorced, and began filming Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County in her junior year of high-school. After a love triangle in her senior year with her high-school sweetheart Stephen Colletti and The Hills sweetheart Lauren Conrad, Cavallari pretty much disappeared. She’s done a couple of movies that went to straight to DVD but that was pretty much it.
It’s not hard to understand why Kristin Cavallari and her fellow California girl, Heidi Montag are in constant struggle with themselves. Hollywood does not make it easy… it’s hard enough for us to fight body images, can you imagine what it’s like for girls that are actually in the spot light? It’s just sad.
In the picture to the left, Kristin looks very healthy and fit in her little black bathing suit. But in the picture to the right, Cavallari looks extremely scrawny and frail.
Along with Stephanie Pratt’s DUI… The new season of The Hills is looking like all kinds of wrong. I’m still waiting for sweet little Lauren Conrad to start some drama.
