Ron Weasley Almost Died in Harry Potter!

November 8th, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans,
Those of you that are Harry Potter fans, understand what a huge change to the books this would be, if J.K. Rowling gave into a fit of temper and offed Ron! Who would be the love of Hermione’s life then? And then, there’s Harry. Orphaned time and again throughout the books, it seems almost cruel to deprive him of his best friend, too! Besides, how could she break up such a good group of friends? Friends who showed time and again that they would stand by each other through the darkest of times—no matter what the cost. You can’t just take one out! It’s like breaking up a dream team, right? Luckily for us, cooler heads prevailed and our Ron Weasely made it to the end, and not only that he got his girl and got to be a hero to boot.
This revelation is part of an interview featured on the upcoming Deathly Hallows: Part 2 DVD between Daniel Radcliffe and J.K. Rowling.

From the interview:
“Funnily enough, I planned from the start that none of them would die. Then midway through, which I think is a reflection of the fact that I wasn’t in a very happy place, I started thinking I might polish one of them off. Out of sheer spite. ‘There, now you definitely can’t have him any more.’ But I think in my absolute heart of heart of hearts, although I did seriously consider killing Ron, [I wouldn't have done it],” she told the actor Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry Potter in the films and who was “convinced one of the main three had to buy it”.

Whew! I’m still breathing a sigh of relief!

Lindsay Lohan Gets NEW Teeth

November 7th, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans,

Because Linsday Lohan lives in her own little world, here’s another one from the “How Dumb Do You Think People Are?” files. I love how LL posts stuff to Twitter or gives quotes that are completely at odds with what is going on in the real world. In LL’s world, she is an A-List star who is on her way to Oscar gold before the age of 30. In the real world, LL is a faded, star who can’t get any work, because of her various and numerous issues, that are too long to list.

A week or two ago, LL was in the headlines again, because she showed up at an event looking wasted with stained fingers and some seriously, gross teeth. Yellowed from smoking and showing decay from a lack of hygiene and other activities, those are not the teeth of an A-List celeb. A few days later, a picture appears on Twitter of LL smiling a perfect set of white straight teeth with the caption that she just go her teeth whitened. Really? Cuz those NEW teeth are different sizes than the originals. Imagine that.

Until something changes, just continue to file this under, “How Dumb Do You Think People Are?” and give it the eye rollie it deserves.

Jessica Simpson—She’s Gonna Be a Mummy!

November 4th, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans—

Don’t blame me for the pun-ny title, I blatantly stole it from Jessica Simpson herself!

Last week, Jessica posted a picture to her Twitter account showing off her Halloween costume with her boyfriend, who’s name I always forget.

Admittedly, I think it’s a cute pun, and to me, Jessica looks great in her costume with the pearl leash, messy hair and pasty faced make-up. Her boyfriend proves once again why the 70’s was an interesting time in men’s hair and fashion. Love the shorty shorts and porn stache.  Although, when I look at the photo of her boyfriend, he looks like David Arquette to me!

Overall, a cute picture for Halloween—and one that could have been so much worse, given some of Jessica Simpson’s past fashion faux pas!

Bones and Burn Notice are Back!

November 3rd, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans,
Thank goodness for DVRs! I lovelove my DVR and frankly, couldn’t live without it. I love a good TV cram night. TV Cram Night is a fun way to kick back and recharge the batteries after a busy week. What better way to chill out than with loads of TV goodness in which my biggest “worry” is making sure the remote is never too far out of reach.

Tonight, my DVR has got to kick it into high gear again, because both Bones and Burn Notice are back for the fall season.

For Bones, it’s the start of season 7 after a long hiatus of wondering what Booth and Brennan are up to now that they are expecting a baby. Previews have been funny with Brennan getting overcome by emotions and Booth just trying to go along with the program. Angela and Temperance have more in common than ever before, but I bet they clash on parenting issues—nothing major though. Booth is probably going to have issues about the new baby, but we know Booth is a good guy, and whatever it is, he’ll work it out. I can’t wait to see where the season takes us.

As for Burn Notice—HOLY MACARONI! The last time we checked in with Michael Westen, things were up and down like usual. His new CIA buddy helped him make some headway on his burn notice, but then he was unexpectedly gunned down and it looked like Michael was to blame. Crap. Clues to the identity of the man responsible for burning Michael and taking out his handler are finally leading to an actual person, but that rat bastard Larry shows up again, looking to make Michael dance like a puppet. Michael goes along with it thinking he’s close to crossing the finish line and Fiona relishes her chance to off Larry for good, but guess what? Larry wasn’t the rat behind this whole deal. I know!

We find out that it’s some obscure psychologist who has spent years crafting his nefarious plots (mwa ha ha ha), and the bad news is, he has enough circumstantial evidence to make things bad for Fiona and Michael. Right after Larry bites the bullet, the building blows up, and Dr. Bad Blood has a recording where it sounds like Fiona admitted to the explosion—even though she didn’t do it. He’s also got loads of stuff on Michael, and as of now, Fiona and Michael are in a bind so tight that they have to do what Dr. Bad Blood wants. Tonight, we find out where this is all leading—or at least kinda—we do have a few more episodes to go through first!

I can’t wait to find out what’s happening next. . .

Neil Patrick Harris and Family Have Some Halloween Fun

November 2nd, 2011

*Picture from Neil Patrick Harris--Twitter Account*

Dear Gossip Fans,

I always look forward to major holidays, because Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka always have the greatest costumes for their twins, Gideon and Harper. Earlier this year I posted pics of the twins dressed up for different months of the year, and I admit, I was hoping to see what was in store for Halloween.

Score!

The theme this year was Peter Pan and I love that they went all out with their costumes. NPH makes a great Captain Hook, David looks cute as Peter Pan and the twins look awesome as Tinkerbell and John! I might be a teensy bit biased, but so far this is my favorite celebrity family photo for Halloween.

Kim Kardashian—Divorcing After 72 Days!

November 1st, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans:

Okay, gossip cynic that I am, even I’m surprised that this marriage didn’t last longer than 72 days.  Now, I’m not saying I expected it to last forever, because let’s face it, despite the über, duper wedding, we all figured that it would last a couple of years—TOPS.  Right?

But,  rewind the gossip news in your head and think about it and it makes total sense now.  The fact that Kim and Kris weren’t together in public very much after the wedding should have been a HUGE clue.  Huge.  Let’s not forget that we are talking about the Kardashians here.  You know as well as I do that if Kim and Kris were having an epic romance—we’d know about it.  We’d see evidence of their splendid love affair splashed across every major gossip outlet from L.A. to Katmandu.  Every. Single. Day.

We’d know details upon details and those details would be topped with even MORE details.  Plus, E! hasn’t scheduled 14 upcoming specials to document every second of their epic romance, so that should have been huge clue #2.  I feel as if I should smack my forehead for missing the obvious.

Kim has released her statement about the divorce, keeping it short and sweet:

“After careful consideration, I have decided to end my marriage. I hope everyone understands this was not an easy decision. I had hoped this marriage was forever but sometimes things don’t work out as planned. We remain friends and wish each other the best.”

No reasons why were listed, but in true Kardashian fashion, it’s only a matter of time before we get the scoop and every thing that went down.  Shortly after that I predict that a new, exciting romance is right around the corner with “insight and facts” coming from an “inside source” soon enough!

Sandra Bullock and Louis Halloween Party 2011

October 19th, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans,
Awww! How cute is Sandra Bullock and her baby Louis? He makes a great pirate already, and he’s not even two! What I want to know is where did Sandra Bullock get her pirate hat? That is an excellent Pirate hat! It makes me want to break into a rousing version of “Yo Ho, Yo Ho a Pirates Life for Meeeee!”

The cuteness of the costumes aside, both Sandra and Louis are full of smiles which makes it extra sweet. Hopefully, more Halloween cutie pix will surface in the next week, and I’m betting that “Pumpkin Patch” pictures will be arriving any moment now!

Dexter Season 6–What’s Happened So Far. . .

October 18th, 2011

Dear Dexter Fans:
Sooooo. . .we’ve had the first three episodes of the season, and as always it’s started off strong, hasn’t it? I’m glad some time has passed so that Dexter can get beyond both Rita and Lumen and we can concentrate on Dexter. Right now, we see that Dexter has had a great year since Lumen left, and everything has fallen into place for him.

Harrison has a new nanny, Angel’s sister, and speaking of Angel, guess who got dumped by his boss? Yes! Angel and LaGuerta are already finito! LaGuerta is moving up to Captain as she blackmailed her old boss into the position. He’s moved up to Deputy Chief, and she was his recommendation. Not because he wanted her, but once again, LaGuerta found a way to get what she wanted by backhanded means. At a big , vice raid, LaGuerta got a hold of a Madame’s black book, and guess which Miami Police Captain figured prominently in that book? You got it, and with that Maria got her promotion, too!

Debra’s life hits the high zone. First, she’s eating dinner with Quinn when a gunman enters the restaurant and she takes him down, super hero style. The next morning Quinn asks her to marry him and that afternoon, she gets promoted to LaGuerta’s old job. Her head is spinning, but she takes the job and tells Quinn, she likes him, but not enough to get married. He’s pissed and is tearing through babes one after the other.

Masuka gets to run an intern program, and his star pupil just happens to be blonde and naughty and returning Masuka’s flirtations. Which would be cool except, that Masuka busted out some old Ice Truck Killer evidence and guess which blonde student bagged it and stole it? Oops.

As for Dexter, he’s on killing spree high right now, where everything is going smoothly and victims are falling one right after another—easy peasy. But, this is Dexter, and nothing goes great forever, does it? Dexter has already been forced to think about the whole “religion” question for a couple of episodes since he’s concerned for Harrison. There’s a potential victim who’s a murderer turned reverend (Mos Def), Harrison going to a religious pre-school, and a couple crime victims found with religious means behind their deaths. Dexter will be dealing with some deep issues this season that is for sure!

Check out the trailer for Episode 4, and then check out the photos from the season so far:

The Avengers–It’s Looks Good!

October 14th, 2011

Dear Gossip Fans,
I do love some big blockbuster movies, but frankly, I’m completely burned out on super hero movies. When I heard about The Avengers movie a few months back, I did an eye rollie, because it wasn’t enough that we’ve had like 6 super hero movies this year alone, now they wanted to make a movie with ALL the super heroes? Isn’t there one comic series that could be left alone?

Okay, so I was getting a little soap-boxy there, but after watching the preview for The Avengers movie, I decided to take my eye rollie back. I can’t deny that this movie looks like it might be fun.

Thor and Captain America

Loki and His Guards

Tony Stark and Captain America

I like that the snarky Tony Stark is back and going full steam, I like getting a look at all the super heroes that are going to be featured in the movie, Thor looks especially shiny and spiffy, and no way! The Hulk, too?  I would love for this movie to be not only big in effects, but have a really decent story line, too. A good mix of action, adventure, and humor, and not such a reliance on explosions and effects to carry the movie, because let’s face it, we’ve been there, done that to death. . .let’s strive for a little more, Hollywood!

This is a great trailer.  You get the feel of the movie and introduced to what’s going on and who the key players are this time around–Nice work!
