Madonna Writes Gibson a Letter

Madonna has written Mel Gibson a letter to see if she can help him. The singer believes that Mel's comments were out of line, but, according to someone close to her, "Madonna thought Mel was out of order but also in a low place, so she has written to him to try and help him."

Whoa. Madonna is trying to help Mel Gibson? Maybe his career is in more trouble than I thought.

J Lo Dropped "Dallas" Because of Travolta

It is being reported that Jennifer Lopez dropped out of the highly publicized movie version of "Dallas" due in part to the fact that John Travolta was going to play her on-screen husband.

Really? You're going to snub John Travolta? Sure, he's getting a little pudgy, but the man is an incredible actor. Didn't you see "Battlefied Earth" or "Michael" or, er...Okay, I guess you can turn down the part.

Kid Rock Is All Class

Kid Rock's ex-girlfriend, Jill Marie Gulseth, has said that she was heartbroken when rocker Kid Rock broke up with her via text message. She said that he had left her because he was still in love with Pamela.

Why is it that, arguably, the ugliest celebrity on the planet gets to get busy with all of these attractive women? It seems to me that if I were in his shoes, and I was having to beat away models who wanted to date me, I would at least show some thankfulness about it, because I would realize that if I weren't a formerly successful rock star, these women would never even look at me. Well, they might look at me, but only as long as it takes to say, "And I'd like a large order of fries with that."

Paris Hilton Wants No Nicole

Paris is on record as saying that she doesn't wish to work with her former best friend Nicole Richie for their hit show The Simple Life. Paris said in an interview, "I don't know what happened to her. She just let fame get to her head. I look forward to doing a new 'Simple Life' with someone else."

Wow. Paris is saying Nicole's fame went to her head? That's just about as dumb as when she said that she didn't know their was a camera in the room the night that she made her sex tape.

Elton John Has Good Taste

Elton John has been talking about how he hates American bands; well, specifically, he's been talking about how he hates their fashion sense. He was quoted as saying, "I'm so over the tattoos and the T-shirts and the rings through noses. It's not pretty, it's not pleasant, and it's not exciting. Please stop it now." He went on to talk about how British rock stars have always had a pretty good sense about fashion.

Okay Elton. If you are going to wear a Donald Duck suit on stage and think that it's good fashion sense, I've got a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.

Hugh Jackman to Return to Broadway

Hugh Jackman, who is most famous for his role as Wolverine in the X-Men movies, is set to star in a Broadway revival of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, Carousel. The actor will also be producing the musical, which is about a carnival barker who has been given one day to set some things right with his life.

Now, I like Hugh Jackman. I like Broadway. I like that he's going to do a show on Broadway. But why did he have to pick a crappy one?

The Latest on Mel

Mel Gibson has been charged with a misdemeanor DUI for his drunk driving citation last week. If he is convicted, Gibson could spend up to six months in prison.

Yeah, I'm sure that that's likely. I just can't see them putting him in prison. After, they can take his life, but they'll never take his freedom!

Colin Farrell Surprised at Don Johnson

Colin Farrell was reportedly surprised to be snubbed by Don Johnson. Don Johnson created the role in Miami Vice that was then taken to the big screen by Farrell.

I'm sorry? Don Johnson who? If I were Farrell, I'd probably feel bad, but not as bad as if I had been snubbed by a working actor.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes Wedding Plans

Celebrity gossipers are smoking a cigarette after the delightful news that it is looking like Tom and Katie will be getting married this weekend. The are basing this on the facts that the Scientology Celebrity Centre in Hollywood has been erecting massive tents and chandeliers, the couple has been over there checking this out a couple of times, and that their hairstylist is on call all weekend.

Tom, let me just say that it really is all class to knock up a girl and then marry her; well, not quite as classy as marrying her, and then impregnating her, but we can't all be idealists, can we?

Lindsay Lohan Having a Rough Time

Lindsay Lohan's British label has announced that they are dropping the actress/pop singer/Crackie McCracksalot due to the low sales of her new single which was likely caused by the fact that she was supposed to have spent time in the U.K. promoting, but didn't.

It's just as well, Lindsay. Now you can spend all of your time working on your acting career. With such deeply impressive works such as "Mean Girls" and "Herby: Fully Loaded" under your belt, you are obviously an actress of impeccable taste and substance. You're just wasting your time singing; nay, you're wasting the world's time by singing instead of acting. Give us more, Lindsay!

Boy George Likes Trash, Apparently

Boy George has been ordered to spend five days this month picking up trash in NYC. This comes after calling the police to his apartment after a break-in several months ago, only to have the police find mountains of cocaine, and then arresting him for possession.

What do you have going through your mind that you call the police, and you don't bother to put away your cocaine? How do you figure you're going to get away from that one? "Sorry, officers, I was a minor celebrity in the eighties; it's legal for me to have coke." Moron.

Ben Affleck Booed

Ben Affleck was at a Red Sox game with his wife Jennifer Garner, when a foul ball came his way. He went to catch it, but he backed away at the last minute so that a player from the Angels could catch it. However, other fans apparently thought that he had interfered with the play, and booed him.

Hey Ben, does that remind you of how people responded to Pearl Harbor? It should.

Mel Enters Rehab

Mel Gibson has checked himself into rehab after being pulled over and making some "colorful" statements about Judaism last week. His representative would not say to which hospital Gibson had gone to, or for how long he would be staying.

To the left is the mug shot of the star. Others have said of this picture that he looks like a crazy man, but I can't help but see a profound sadness in his eyes. I don't know why I have a soft spot in my heart for the actor, but I really do hope that he gets the help that he needs.
