Julia Roberts exacts revenge on gorgeous George

Seems the lovely Julia has to have the last laugh. Ever the prankster - George pulled a fast one on her on the eve of her Broadway debut, and Mrs. Moder was having nothing of it! Seems she plotted her revenge and got it. Any practical joke involving over 100 clowns sounds like a good one. At a recent speech in Manhattan regarding his trip to Sudan and the tragedy in Darfur, Ms. Roberts had the entire audience wear clown masks. When he approached the podium, he was greeted by the demonic clown audience. Julia jumped out and let him in on the joke. What a kidder. I think maybe she's been playing too much peek-a-boo with the twins lately.

Who knows if this story is true, but at least it's cute. Keep on keepin' it real you two... it's sweet to see such real love in Lalawood.

Cousin Anderson - I can't wait to meet cha

I mentioned a few days ago that I was a very distant cousin to Anderson Cooper - I thought I'd post our common ancestor table. I've been obsessed with genealogy over the past year - and thought I'd start building some posts about it. I have no idea if this table is really accurate or not, it's been compiled from a multitude of sources and I have not verified them all. But, it's fun to dig and see what you can find hiding in the old family tree. I know most of Anderson's family tree information came from Wikipedia and various files at Ancestry.com.

Anyways - If you ever run across this Anderson, I would love to catch up on family biznizz with you some time... my email is always open drop me a line. You can even bring your cutie boy toy Julio! If my info is wrong - keep it to yourself though - I want the fantasy to live on. heehee.Anderson Cooper Links:

Sinead O'Connor breeds again

It seems that Sinead O'Connor and her partner Frank Bonadio are pregnant with what will be her fourth child. Okay, let's add this up. Four kids, four baby daddies -- I smell a celebrity reality show coming on. Maybe an angry, psuedo-religious, Celtic chanting, ranting reality show. The baby-to-be should be making an appearance around Christmas Eve. Good luck!

Did Maddox name Shiloh after his favorite movie?

This is pure speculation, but we may have discovered the real origin of the name Shiloh. Who could resist a lovable abused beagle. If you can, you're heartless! Is it possible that Maddox enjoyed this family flick so much he wanted a little Shiloh of his own? You know Angelina wouldn't deny her Maddox anything.

For celebrities - this baby-naming convention wouldn't be that unusual... at least it wasn't Benji, Lassie or Toto. If baby Shiloh has half as much heart-warming gumption as her possible namesake - this world will be a better place. Buy the movie Shiloh here

The New York Times reports: In recent years, Westport no longer held any special charm for Ms. Stewart, who moved to Katonah, N.Y. She said so herself in an essay published in The New York Times Magazine in 2000, lamenting what she called an "increasingly unfriendly neighborhood atmosphere" and complaining about town regulations that hindered her business. In the essay, she vowed to leave.

Takes a little of the romance out of the Martha mythology.

Skip the painkillers and pass a fatty...

It seems that the evidence continues to mount that a little weed could be the best medicine for post-surgery pain as well as a variety of other chronic diseases and ailments. According to a study by Imperial College London -

The researchers tested Cannador in different doses on 65 patients who had previously undergone surgery. While all 11 patients who received a 5mg dose of the drug requested additional pain relief, only 15 of the 30 who received the 10mg dose and 6 of the 24 on the 15mg dose did so.

One small step for knee replacement patients - one giant step for mankind.

Seems Anderson Cooper has a hot boy toy!

Meet Julio Cesar Recio, a wine afficionado and arm candy to Mr. McFeelings, Anderson Cooper. He certainly found himself a hottie! Good goin AC! Seems the silver-tongued smooth talker has someone to go home to after trudging around in the putrid muck and talking to Oprah. That makes me feel better - you know do-gooders need latino lovin' too.

Just as a side note, Anderson Cooper is my 10th cousin. We're related through common ancestors Cornelis Gerritze VanDuyn & Machtelje Hoecken. Seems the world is a mighty small place.

Nicole & Keith save it for the wedding night

So the buzz is that Nicole Kidman is staying celibate while waiting out her impending nuptials. Seems her and fiancé Keith Urban won't be making much magic until their June 25th Sydney wedding. This post is dated today... so all we're talking about is about three weeks of no nookie? Big deal. I figure she went about 10 years before while she was married to the "officially heterosexual" Tom Cruise.

Anyways... 24 days and counting Nicole... you can do it!

Separated at Birth - Celebrity Style

Is it Ace Young or K-Fed? If Britney wanted to - she could "get rid" of K-Fed and slide Ace right in and maybe noone would notice. It looks like he comes with his own wife beater too. Bonus! Well, it's a thought anyways.

Eva Mendes & Rosario Dawson ...I can never tell these two lovely Latinas apart! I'm not actually sure which one is which. :)

Is Lindsay Lohan really Ann-Margret 2.0? She sings, she acts... she's a little freaky. All the evidence points to yes.

Anna Nicole spawns again... oh, the humanity!

I'm not sure what's going on this week with all the baby news ... but it continues. It's been confirmed that Anna Nicole Smith is pregnant. Yes, let's all start preparing for the impending IQ vacuum she will soon spew forth. Since pregnant women are intellectually diminished because less oxygen actually makes it to the brain... and she chose to mate with a papparazzo (all attention is good attention, right?)... what in the world is Anna gonna do?!?!? Boy, I'd hate to be her bodyguard. Godspeed my man.

Does this woman look like Bob Dylan to you?

The new Bob Dylan biopic I'm Not There looks to be an interesting one...

It will either give us real insight into the deep dark chewy center 'ol Bob - or it'll be one of those terribly pretentious high concept movies loaded with fantastic actors that is just a weird string of unrelatable scenes. I'm getting a little nervous that Cate Blanchett is playing the embodiment of Dylan during one aspect of his career and life. Dylan also inhabits stars Richard Gere, Christian Bale, Julianne Moore and Heath Ledger. I didn't know Dylan had multiple personality disorder! Hmmm. We'll see.

At least his alter egos are much better looking than the original.

Farewell til fall Katie - I'll miss ya in the morning.

My morning routine is now seriously in danger of meltdown - for I need a routine to survive. Mornings are evil because they mean impending work, but Katie Couric made it all okay. Her perennial perkiness was just the irritant needed to make me get out of bed and get to work quickly to escape before the first 30 "hard news" minutes were over. I have a low tolerance for talking news heads - so it will be tough to find such a personable and palatable replacement for my morning motivation. Bummer.

Anyways, thanks for the memories and good luck on the late shift KC!

Little boy with 3 arms faces surgery.

This 2 month old boy, Jie-jie, in Shanghai China was born with 2 left arms. He is facing surgery to correct or improve his situation - but what kind of surgery? This is one of the most remarkable pictures I've ever seen. It's amazing that they both are so fully developed. This is really a conundrum. Each arm seems to have something the other one doesn't. The poor boy might be better off being fitted with a robotic prosthetic instead. They can do amazing things these days. Regardless I wish the little guy the best of luck - he certainly is a cutie.

Good god the babies won't stop!

It seems the baby boom in Blahblahwood is in full swing. Mira Sorvino seemed to be able to hang on just long enough to not get lost in the Brangelina/Shiloh news feast. Seems the lovely Oscar winner and her husband Chris Backus have welcomed little Johnny Backus into this world yesterday evening. Seems the little lad was keeping a surprise of his own - the happy couple didn't know if he was packing or not until his birth. I hope he likes his gender-neutral yellow nursery! Congratulations!

The Real "Lost" Mystery!

The real mystery of the 2nd season of Lost is how in the world Michelle Rodriguez can basically get TWO get-out-of-jail-free cards? The big news is that after serving a couple of days in a Hawaiian jail for drunk driving... she came back to LA and had to start serving a 60 day sentence for probation violation of a previous drunken episode. So how does this lucky biatch only spend 4 hours and 27 minutes in jail? I guess all that tough talk about how she loved jail so much scared the little warden girlies and they let her out before she had time to get cranky. Come on... you know this Girlfight star could lay you out. Perhaps now she can go be a French bodyguard for Amelie or something.

My favorite part of this story is that Michelle originally chose jail in Hawaii over community service because she just got "too much attention" and it made it too difficult. So now she has to do a measly 30 hours. Something is better than nothing I guess, it seems this celeb couldn't completely write the rulebook her way after all. Thank god.

Part Man - Part Scanner. Hmm... the possibilities!

Wanna know how to be a human computer?
Learn to read barcodes!

I'm not sure why this will be important... but something tells me it may be an essential skill at some point in the not so distant future. At worst... you'll know a good parlor trick.

Steps:
1. Note that barcodes are made up of both black and white lines. The white spaces in between the black lines are part of the code.

2. Understand that there are four different thicknesses to the lines. Henceforth, the skinniest line will be referred to as "1," the medium-sized line as "2," the next largest line as "3." and the thickest is "4."

The Celebrity Baby Class of 2006.

Well, this weekend spewed forth the ultimate in celebrity baby births... little rocker in waiting King Rossdale and the newest Namibian and soon-to-be world traveller, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.

On May 27, 2006 at he ultimate madonna in Gwen Stefani gave forth of her loins the ultimate heir to the throne King of Rock. And luckily his name is King! What a coincidence. His full name is Kingston James McGregor Rossdale and he weighed in at a whopping 7.5 pounds. My favorite birth detail is that Gwen arrived very excited and wearing her signature red lipstick. No Doubt it perfectly matched her maternity muumuu du jour. Congratulations to the fabulous new fam!

Not to be outdone - the world's most beautiful baby made it's debut over the holiday weekend - meet Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. The new Namibian has offers of citizenship, national holidays named after it and has already earned UNICEF a cool $5 Million. Impressive. Imagine what it can do once it can feed itself! Kudos to the new mom and dad for making mad money for a good cause with their blessed event.

It will be a big year in 2024 when all these tots are graduating from Hollywood High. Perhaps Suri Cruise and Moses Martin will be prom queen and king. Little Grier Henchy will most likely snub Baron Trump for King Rossdale just because he's cuter. Adam Sandler's still unnamed daughter is sure to have a complex about it by then and pull some sort of Carrie Stunt -- but just in time Zoltan Jilette and Bluebell Halliwell Spice will swoop down and save the day in true SuperCelebrity Kid Style. They'll soon learn it's all a stunt for her mtv49 reality show featuring kids of fat, silly comedians from the turn of the century. Good times. Good times.

Only 2 more mornings with Katie - call in sick immediately!

Katie Couric only has 2 more chances to perkily pamper our prep time in the morning. On Wednesday, she will step up to bigger and better things at CBS Evening News. Seems that as of this weekend, her competition will still be Charlie Gibson - since he will be taking over at ABC Evening News. I guess it's just the logical progression for these morning show mouthpieces. At least they won't have to be up at 3AM anymore. Maybe Katie will lose her sweet innocence once she's allowed up to stay up late and watch all the available smut on tv after 8pm! Good luck Katie.
