I ask because they certainly hang on to her every word… and tweet. Remember the twitter bonding that took place between her and John McCain after she tweeted about her displeasure with Obama’s tax on tanning booths? Then the ladies of The View asked Obama about the reality star. Not to mention, the higher ups of Jersey and New York keep going back and forth as to which state should lay claim to the ‘Jersey Shore’ cast and their unruly fist pumping behavior. Now, it’s Newark mayor Cory Booker’s turn to get into the mix.
The daughter of reggae legend Bob Marley has confessed to harvesting marijuana in her Caln, Pennsylvania home. Makeda Marley, 29, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to possessing several large ganja plants inside her home, roughly 30 miles outside of Philadelphia. Marley was arrested in 2008, when after calling the police for a domestic dispute; officers caught Marley removing plants from her basement. Thomas Schindler, Marley’s attorney told The Associated Press he will seek probation. Sentencing is scheduled for October. (source)
30 miles? Well… damn. The apple doesn’t fall from the tree cause you know Bob was a herb specialist (see above image for reference). Someone shoulda told her that kinda thing only flies in Cali, though. Tough break. I feel a classic reggae song is in order. Take us away, Peter Tosh!
Never let it be said that modern day true love doesn’t exist. I’m reaching, I know.

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.
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.

Perhaps the most random news I’ve gotten all day, the Discovery Channel hostage situation notwithstanding. Calvin has teamed up with Norton Anti-Virus to help fight the good fight against those pesky hackers. Good luck with that. And God bless this adorable little host trying to get the “urban” lingo down.
