Actress Tina Fey had not addressed her facial scar until this month. She was attacked at age 5, her husband explained.
Mary-Kate Olsen may have added a bit of body weight, and the speculation begins. |
PREGNANT vs. Fat Cow
It's always surprising
The latest victim of the twisted pastime happens to be Mary-Kate Olsen. Yes, the formerly anorexic one.
The National Enquirer got the ball rolling when a source claimed that MKO's recent weight gain may be to hide her pregnancy. And what new weight gain am I referring to? Well, the tiny wactress has ballooned to a total of 102 pounds.
Reps for Mary-Kate have officially denied any baby rumors, but I hesitate to call her a fat cow. Seriously, there's a special place in hell for those who think 102 pounds is worthy of gossip.
It doesn't matter if she weighed 64 pounds to begin with! You cannot call a celebrity fat when she is battling an eating disorder.
Now, when MK weighs in at 109 pounds then we can call her names, and at 113 I'm mailing her a feeding trough.
IS JAMIE LYNN FRETTING?
I hesitate to report on the likes of Jamie Lynn Spears but every now and then she reveals some nugget of stupid, and it's a slow gossip week.
According to Star Magazine's online site, Jamie Lynn is worried that the liposuction she had during her pregnancy could have caused long-term harm to her daughter, Maddie.
Hold on there, put down your pitchfork and torches. Apparently Jamie didn't realize her condition at the time, and she modestly assumed that she was a fat cow.
"She didn't know she was pregnant when she filled out the health questionnaire prior to the procedure," a source reveals. "Her mom approved the injections and went through tons of red tape to get the clinic to administer them to an underage patient." Now, I'm not going to blame Jamie Lynn here--she was only 16 and "Juno" wasn't out in theaters yet.
Any kid could have gotten confused. However, Mama Lynne Spears, honestly, what is wrong with you?
FEY CLEARS UP MYSTERY
Some of us have been major fans of Tina Fey long before Gov. Sarah Palin graced the lower 48 with her folksy euphemisms and dangling modifiers.
For the longest time Tina refused to reveal the origin of the endearing scar on the left side of her face. At first it was fine and everyone was respectful, but then it just got weird.
I mean, what's the big deal about a scar? If you want me to look at your face for 30 minutes every week then you can at least explain to me what I'm looking at! Well, finally she did--and I feel like a major jerk.
The AP reports that in a Vanity Fair interview, her husband, Jeff Richmond, confirmed that when Tina was 5, a complete stranger slashed her face when she was playing in her yard.
True story! Tina never wanted to talk about the incident because she felt that it would seem like she was exploiting it. She's absolutely right--I already think she's a thousand times more hilarious.
IGNORE THEM, KATIE
Oh sexism, how I've missed you. Now that the election is over, the liberal media elite are now cannibalizing one of their own.
Katie Couric's new hairdo is a hair-don't, according to the clever New York Daily News Web site and several other outlets.
The "hair-raising new look put the 'ew' in the evening news," says NYDN.
The anchor lady debuted her cut on the Evening News and viewers did all but throw up on themselves. Personally, I dig it. Still, I get why people are so upset.
The Evening News is for the big boys and if there's going to be skirt behind that desk, she had better be giggling and pointing
Katie's new haircut makes her look like a serious professional, which can be confusing to viewers tuning in to hear about the economy and terrorist attacks. Maybe
