News: Miley Cyrus Battles Accusations That She’s “Too Thin”…

Friday, May 18 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

Well that certainly isn't a Poptart in her left hand...

Recently, Miley Cyrus has been spotted out and about looking much like the handlebar on her bike. Rail thin with a protruding collar bone; you would assume it’s the result of anorexia.

But she has combated the eating disorder rumors (for like the tenth time) and has finally explained her sudden (and concerning) weight loss.

Miley confirmed via Twitter,

“For everyone calling me anorexic, I have a gluten and lactose allergy,” she said. “It’s not about weight – it’s about health. Gluten is crap anyway!”

Can’t you just hear that sweet southern twang in that tweet?

But if I’m being honest, Miley would probably say something more along these lines in a public interview:

“Naw ya’ll I ain’t got no problem with eatin’ but milk gives me the squirts! Haw haw haw!”

Miley later added,

“Everyone should try no gluten for a week! The change in your skin, physical and mental health is amazing. You won’t go back!”

Now that sounds a little more like a Kardashian, especially Kourtney who is always advocating for her ‘clean diet’ regiment. Eating smoothies made of lawn grass and tulip bulbs, yummy…. And speaking of gluten, don’t forget the 100% photo-shopped picture that Kourt’s sister Kim posted, that showed a significantly slimmer Kimberly, no curves in sight. She also praised a gluten free lifestyle for her digitally altered new figure. Read More

News: Tom Cruise Sounds Like He Has a Vagina in Playboy Interview…

Friday, May 18 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

He's Even Holding a Purse....

In an interview with Playboy magazine, you’d think any man who has rugged, handsome looks and is known for playing a badass in all of his movies, would want something along those lines printed about him. Or, at least if he would brag about his smoking hot wife (in her day), crack open a beer or sip a fine scotch.

What he wouldn’t want to do is sound like he’s wearing a pink tu-tu and that he’s wearing Spanx to hold his nuts back. This is exactly how Tom Cruise sounds in the recent issue of Playboy.

I understand that the person asking the questions didn’t focus the interview on Cruise’s Mission Impossible career or anything that would make him want to jump on a couch, so that may be part of the problem. Instead, he was asked about his success, his wife, Katie Holmes and his daughter Suri, of course.

And this is what he had to say,

“I’ve always had the same values. Family for me has always been important. When I shoot, everybody comes. When Kate’s shooting, I’m there with her and the kids.

We’re always together. I’m always around my mother and sisters.

I always wanted to be a father, a husband.”

It sounds like the parting dialogue for a dying man about to kick the bucket on a Lifetime movie.

“I always wanted to be a father, a husband….tell Georgia I love her.” And the limp hand falls across the edge of the bed….end scene. Read More

News: Snooki Tweets Photo of Growing Baby Bump!

Friday, May 18 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

Baby Basketball on Board!

Unable to hit the bar and the tanning bed, Snooki has some extra time on her hands to see how her growing belly looks in her favorite neon and zebra print wardrobe.

The fist bumping mom-to-be took time out of her day yesterday to share these pictures with the twitter-verse. While I don’t want to bring too much attention to that mess of footwear behind her, I’m picturing her strutting around the house sticking her gut out naked, wearing only those shoes.

I’m sure her fiancée Jionni LaValle just digs that look on her. Someone needs to pray for that man…

Some predict that the day Snooki brings that little bambino forth from her hot pocket will be the day the Mayans calculated to be the end of the world. If the date does indeed bring a cataclysmic catastrophe and Snooki’s baby is to blame, the Mayans were smarter than I thought. Read More

News: Bachelor Host Chris Harrison on His New Found Bachelor-ism…

Friday, May 18 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

Single, Ready to Mingle!

As we shared with you several weeks ago, the handsome host from the last 16 seasons of the Bachelor, Chris Harrison has recently become a bachelor himself. Sadly, he and his wife Gwen Jones have separated after being married for 18 long suffering years together.

Recently Harrison opened up about his new single life and what it’s like to be on his own search for love. Instead of helping other guys score with hot desperate-to-marry women, he’s on his own quest this time around.

Chris said,

“I guess I am a bachelor now, which scares the holy hell out of me—I’m not going to lie—because I haven’t been one since the early ’90s…and I thought those days were over—and I was happy to have them over! I was never one of those married guys that was like, ‘Man, I wish I was at the club at 4 a.m. with those guys! I am so happy to be home, I love my life at home.”

Chris and Gwen’s split has been reported as ‘amicable’ which is great because when there are kids involved things can get a bit rocky. Together they have two children who are both under the age of 10. Read More

News: Hunger Games Rip-Off Picked up by the CW

Friday, May 18 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

The Next Katniss??

There is a Katniss Everdeen knockoff headed to your television set. By way of the CW, the copycat network has plans to add ‘The Selection’ to its lineup this fall. The show, based off a book from author Kiera Cass, is a futuristic novel in which the main character must survive her war torn country as well as compete against others her age for food, fame and fortune….

Hmm, that’s weird.

I swear, I’ve read that book before…..and strangely I’ve seen a movie based on that same storyline… OH WAIT, it’s an insulting re-write of the Hunger Games.

The Selection’s plot does differ in that the characters don’t fight to kill one another, but instead compete to marry a prince. Soooooo, not only is it a below the belt insult to Katniss Everdeen, it has a raunchy ending  which reads like the author thought, “Oh shit, I better try to make this a little different, so I don’t get sued…so I’ll just put a prince somewhere and a castle and a dog named Marley and my book is done!” Read More

News: Kristen Stewart Confesses She’s ‘Dying’ To….

Thursday, May 17 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

"Hire Us! We're Awkward!"

Have her front teeth fixed? No.
Hire a good stylist? No.
Invest in a personality? Nope.

Kristen Stewart is dying to make another movie with her boyfriend, Robert Pattinson.

Since Breaking Dawn Part 2 has wrapped up and taken its fangs out for the final time, Kristen has the itch to get freaky on screen collaborate once again with Edward Cullen Robert.

During an interview for Snow White & the Huntsman Stewart dropped the not so subtle hint to any production companies that may be tuning in, or looking for a ‘dynamic’ pair of lovebirds.

Stewart said,

“I’m dying to make another movie with Rob, I think that we’re a good team”

Well in a film full of awkward moments and restless stumbling between the two of you, I can’t think of anyone better!

Kristen continued on the subject, so she doesn’t end up in a Tyler Perry movie:

 “Whatever it is needs to be so ridiculously ambitious.”

I think the perfectly “ambitious” role she may be referring to would be a sequel to the ‘The Artist’ a wonderful SILENT role is just what she needs in my opinion. However, without talking, that leaves more time for uncomfortable stares and plenty of close-ups on those rabbit teeth of hers. Read More

News: Robert Downey Jr. is $50 Million Richer…

Thursday, May 17 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

$50 Million in Action Baybay

Thanks to the incredible success of The Avengers, which has already raked in $1 billion at the box office, Robert Downey Jr. is about to make some serious bank.

It’s rumored that RDJ’s sneaky sneaky contract indicates that he will profit 5-7% of the overall sales figure, which totals a cool $50 million dollars. $50 million!! Which to us is a lot of money, but when you are already worth millions, maybe this isn’t such a big deal to him.

But get this!

Co stars Samuel L. Jackson and Scarlett Johansson won’t make anywhere near Downey’s $50 million. Instead the best they can hope to make is between $2-$6 million! (Okay yeah, that’s still a freakin’ fortune.)

Thanks to Robert’s smooth negotiation skills in 2008, when Iron Man debuted, his lawyers and agent worked with Marvel to ensure he had a stake in all of the earnings. Any future films in which RDJ plays Tony Stark, he stands to make ma-jah bank, forever and ever!

BRILLIANT staff you have there, Robert. Read More

News: UH OHHH, Scott Disick Absent from Kourtney’s Baby Shower…

Thursday, May 17 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,Keeping Up with the Kardashians,News

"Sorry girl, I'm out..."

Kourtney Kardashian is seven months pregnant. This is usually the time when the mother really starts to feel like a disgusting whale, but also the time for nursery decorating and of course, baby showers. A time when she needs plenty of support and love from the father, right?

Unless he’s a dead beat and skipped the WHOLE thing.

And you know that a Kardashian baby shower ain’t like no normal baby shower. Oh hell nah!

And as you can imagine, Kris Jenner was NOT pleased baby daddy Scott Disick missed Kourtney’s baby shower last Saturday. (Which was the DAY BEFORE Mother’s day!)

Don’t even get the idea that men weren’t invited either, that’s no excuse here. Scott was supposed to be there to support Kourtney and he wasn’t. Why? Because the father to be, (who is well known for his inability to say no to alcohol), flew to Atlantic City to host a party instead.

You can bet that the veins in Kris Jenner’s neck were pulsing and smoke was boiling from her ears when she found out! Read More

News: Mel B Suits Up in Sexy ‘Dancing’ Costume for the Fall!

Thursday, May 17 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,News

Oh HELL Yes!!

OMG OMG OMG, yes, please, please say this is a go!

Sources are teasing that my all time favorite Spice Girl, Mel B, is in negotiations to join the cast of Dancing with the Stars for another season on the dance floor! Her sultry sexiness, humor and natural dance skills make her a top contender for the mirror ball trophy once again!

This fall fans can look forward to an all-star season of Dancing with the Stars. Contestants that competed fiercely, but maybe didn’t take home the spoils in the end, have another opportunity to redeem themselves. And this is exactly what makes good television, great television….a comeback!! Since Mel B placed second on her first spin around the dance floor she has the opportunity to reclaim a victory!

News: The Kardashian Kameras Will Continue to Roll in Their Nursing Homes…

Wednesday, May 16 | Posted by thehotpocket in Celebrity,Keeping Up with the Kardashians,News

"You're Stuck with us Forever!!"

As if the Kardashians don’t have enough exposure already considering their numerous TV shows, clothing line, home line, guest appearances, bill boards, fragrances and anything else they can stick their butt face on….it’s not going to get better anytime soon.

As we already shared, ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ was renewed for another three years, on the E! Television network. Three years, shmee- years, that was nothing. According to Kim and Khloe, their family is going to be around for-ev-ah. Like forever, like until they are in the nursing home.

Khloe confirmed,

“I hope they’ll want to film me in my old-folks home, where my kids will probably put me because I’ll be too evil. They’ll be changing my diapers on television. Because there are so many of us, people can connect to at least one of us. We’re not sitting there trying to pretend that we’re perfect. Even if they see that we’re having a difficult time, people can relate to that.”

GREAT.

What’s really going to suck is when Khloe, Kim and Kourt are like 85 and I’m 60, they are STILL going to look better than me. Life will never be just and fair in that regard. Constantly surrounded by a ‘glam squad’ and with enough money for any plastic surgery their hearts desire, they will never look like old crusty raisins. Read More
