Is it me or could this woman stand to gain a few pounds?  Look at the look on her face in this photograph… the way she’s reaching for that drink leads me to believe she may be in desperate need of calories!  Keira Knightley is apparently very sensitive about talk about her weight, but she has no problem taking off her top in movies.

A few words about “Dirty Papa Joe” on this Father’s Day…

I’m not talking Christina Aguilera dirty either. Nobody wants to see Papa Joe writhing around in a rain shower, except maybe himself. He’s the baptist minister turned diamond stud wearing manager. And like any man he talks about sex, boobs, cleavage, and a woman’s sexy body. But oh wait, did I mention he’s talking about his little girl? This baptist minister needs to go to confessional. Yes, he’s talking about his first born, Jessica Simpson and her “gift” of virginity, her double DD’s, and her sexy body.

He was quoted in the Times as “pledging to be the central man in her [Jessica’s] life until she’s married” and he accompanied that pledge with a ‘purity ring.”  He is further quoted as saying he wanted them [Jessica & Ashley] to know that “Daddy never touched their stuff. I wanted them to always look at me with respect.” What is he talking about?! Touching them where?! Eick!

He produced the movie Blonde Ambition, which focused on Jessica’s body, blonde hair and cleveage.  Some would say he was working with her best assets, but did he forget that she actually has talent? Did he forget that she’s a singer? Probably a gifted singer, unlike the younger daughter Ashley with her lip synching irish dance debacle on Saturday Night Live a year or two ago. I’m surprised this manager turned down an offer for Jessica to be in a porno. Maybe he just doesn’t like to share her. He’s cited as the cause for Jessica’s divorce from Nick Lachey. And his meddling probably won’t end there.  He may soon be the cause for the end of her relationship with Tony Romo.

What do you give a dad that only wants his daughter?! Happy Father’s Day dirty old man!

Any so-called doctor of the mind whether they be a psychologist or psychiatrist who diagnoses people he or she has never met is a… well you tell me.  Dr. Drew Pinsky’s remarks in a recent Playboy Magazine interview: 

A lot of people in the public eye who behave strangely have mental illness we can learn from, and much of it is based on childhood trauma, without a doubt. Take a guy like Tom Cruise. Why would somebody be drawn into a cultish kind of environment like Scientology? To me, that’s a function of a very deep emptiness and suggests serious neglect in childhood - maybe some abuse, but mostly neglect.    

Note how he says “to me,” when he describes his conclusions about Tom Cruise.  Then I guess I will add, to me, Dr. Drew, your speculation about Tom Cruise to a reporter for a major magazine is grossly unprofessional behavior… and you know damn well it is.  If you don’t, you’re an incompetent fool, and if you do… well, then Pinsky, what are you then?
 (refer to subject for the neighborhood I’m in…) 

I wish more actors would do stuff like this.  Katherine Heigl refused to put herself up for an Emmy this year for her work on Grey’s Anatomy.  She gave her reasoning for such a selfless act in a written statement:

I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organization…  In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials,” added Heigl. 

Humility is hot, no?
