Veteran actress Betty White is the latest Hollywood star to get the comic book treatment. The 88-year-old performer will be drawn as a cartoon for “Female Force: Betty White,” to be produced by Bluewater Productions. The 32-page book is due to hit stores in November and will retail for $3.99 per copy. “Betty White has had such an amazing entertainment career … It’s one that has now spanned more than 70 years,” Bluewater president and founder Darren G. Davis said in a statement. (source)
It brings me great pain to say this, but haven’t we gone a little too far with Betty White mania? I mean, what kind of superhero can an 88-year old really make? When you’re that age, corn that can be your kryptonite. I understand the sentiment, though. She’s been my hero since I was nine.
While RiRi is busy getting her acting on in Hawaii (she’s in the upcoming “Battleship” movie) and collecting checks since everyone from the VMA’s to the new Nikita show is using “Rockstar 101″ in their promo, she’s readying a new album for November. Today E!’s HBIC premiered a new record from the album titled “Loud” scheduled to drop in November. It’s another one for the dancefloor and yes, radio will kill it too.
I like any video that gives a unique perspective on NYC, but when the song is just as dope? Well, I get a little giddy. This is the latest off Lamar’s O.D. dropping September 15. Definitely looking forward to hearing that.
If so, let me know and I’ll start watching cause I stopped tuning in after Fantasia won and I discovered she was illiterate. In this clip from American Idol’s british counterpart, two bff’s have decided to try their luck at fame by auditioning for the talent show that catapulted Susan Boyle into mage stardom. Unfortunately, the two didn’t seem to have a plan beforehand as to what they were going to sing, who was going to handle the questions from the judge or… anything for that matter. The result? Temper tantrums and a fist pumps to the face. Just look at how quickly this business can change people. Tough break, kids.
Yes, Joe Jackson is still gunning for that Father of the Year award. I say it’s a tie between him and Michael Lohan. Anywhoo, in an interview with JacksonSecretVault.com, the patriarch of the Jackson clan was asked about his infamous reputation for being a hard-ass, particularly the allegations that he physically abused Michael as a child. His response: I had to be like that because when raising him, in those days, so many gangs out there getting into trouble, going to jail. Most of them are dead now. He didn’t have to worry about that…hey tried to make a big issue when I spanked Michael or some of the kids, ya know? Just like they didn’t spank their kids when they did wrong. The media twists everything.
So Joe you really think Michael Jackson, the same man who kept a pet monkey and an amusement park in his backyard would have joined a gang if it wasn’t for your fists? Really? Really? Okay.
Sometimes I think the promos for the MTV VMA’s are the best part of the whole thing. Here’s a quick look at our favorite late night lady filming her bits. She’ll take on the hosting duties on September 12 at 9 pm EST.
You remember Ardi Rizal, the toddler affectionately known as “Ciggie Smalls” because he was puffing on two packs of cigarettes a day. Well, applaud that Michelin Man shaped baby cause he’s finally gotten rid of the lung cancer inducing habit after undergoing a 30-day treatment program. Yeah, babies are going to rehab. 2012 ain’t a lie.
