Heidi Montag’s Ugly Face and Uglier Attitude…

March 30th, 2010

Scary face Heidi Montag acted like her high-maintenance self over the weekend at the Hills final season photo shoot.

Apparently, Heidi showed up to the set with four bodyguards and “Audrina [Patridge], Kristin [Cavallari], Stephanie [Pratt] and Lo [Bosworth] were all shocked,” reports PerezHilton.com. She then “refused to take part in a group shot, even though she had agreed to it beforehand.”

Thank goodness for photoshop though! MTV has already planned on cropping her into the pictures.

And unfortunately, Heidi’s hubby, Spencer Pratt confirmed his wife’s diva behavior, saying, “It’s all true. She was sick and she didn’t even want to go to that photo shoot!”

Additionally, Heidi posted a photo of her posing with her entourage of six bodyguards on Facebook, which Spencer says is nothing new.

“She always travels with a security team,” he explains.

What’s the point of a security team when your nasty mug is enough to scare fans away…?

Apparently too, “Spencer’s been banned from the set… so Heidi feels safer with her security team around,” a source tells Usmagazine.com.

But seriously, what’s with the diva attitude? The little bitch thinks her nasty demeanor is acceptable stating, “I’m a movie star now!”

Yea, you just filmed a worthless cameo in a Jennifer Aniston flick… movie star is a bit of stretch girlfriend.

The Hills final season premieres April 27. Heidi’s new face will make its debut so watch with discretion… shits about to get real ugly.

On Monday night, 20/20 hosted a television special Inside the Bachelor: Stories Behind the Rose.

On the show, Bachelor creator and executive producer, Mike Fleiss revealed that “the average guy will end up having sex with three women during the course of the show.”

So which hunky Bachelor got the most goodies on the show???!

Season 4’s star Bob Guiney? Ewwww.

“I think he was 5 1/2 women,” said Mike.

So what does that mean? five lays and a bj?! Barf.

Bob however tells Usmagazine.com that Mike is just teasing, adding “LOL.”

Well, we DEFINITELY don’t see the appeal, but what exactly attracted 5.5 women to Bob?

“Bob had just come off the Trista season of the Bachelorette so his popularity was enormous,” Mike explained. “Women were in love with him right from the start.”

And if there are any women out there still lookin’ for a piece of the Guiney, get excited!!!! He and his wife of five years, All My Children star Rebecca Budig have recently split.

Ew, Bob Guiney? REALLY?!! We can think of several other Bachelors we’d sleep with before Bob. Actually, we’d prob take any other Bachelor before Bob. Sorry Buddy…

Corey Feldman Plans Memorial For BFF!

March 15th, 2010

Corey Feldman says he won’t be attending his BFF’s funeral!

Teen star Corey Haim, who died March 10, will be laid to rest Tuesday in Toronto with only close family members at his side.

“In the days following my best friend Corey Haim’s death, I have spent much time with his mother Judy, who has always been like a mother to me,” Feldman says in a statement. “I would love nothing more than to be by her side at Corey’s funeral, however, due to their strong religious beliefs and need for privacy, the family has decided to make Corey’s funeral on Tuesday a small private affair.”

“Understanding the recent media attention and to be respectful of the family’s wishes, I have decided not to attend. Instead, I will remain in Los Angeles quietly mourning and planning his memorial,” Feldman continues. “As a sign of respect, I am asking the media to honor Corey Haim by making the same choice. I am working with a few people who were close to Corey to put a memorial together within the next month. At that time, the media will be invited to honor and celebrate the legacy he has left behind, along with friends, fans and the rest of the Hollywood community.”

The official cause of Haim’s death has yet to be confirmed as they’re still waiting on toxicology test results, but his mother says she was told by the coroner that her son suffered from pulmonary congestion.

The police and California Attorney General Edmund G. Brown Jr. seem to think otherwise though. On Friday, Brown told Usmagazine.com that Haim’s death has been linked to an “illegal and massive prescription-drug ring.”

What happened to those rumors stating that Corey Haim’s family wanted the fans to pay for funeral costs???

Doc Blames Pressure Of Hollywood On Corey Haim’s Death!

March 11th, 2010

corey-haim-death

Corey Haim passed away on Wednesday at the early age of 38 following in the footsteps of a long list of celebrities who have passed from troubles of dealing with fame.

Dr. Joseph Haraszti, a psychiatrist from California, spoke out about his unexpected death.

“They can’t handle the pressure. Everybody wants a piece of them. Society wants a piece of them. Everybody wants to meet them, wants their autograph, it can just be overwhelming,” he tells RadarOnline.com.

Haim was not a patient of Dr. Haraszti, but he explains it’s a typical situation that occurs with child stars.

“What I see as the common theme is they get all this adulation for their performance but they lose out on their childhood because often times they become the bread winners for their family. They don’t go to regular school, they didn’t go to the prom, and they didn’t go through the social angst. That is a tremendous loss. Someone who misses out on that is impaired. Then they try to make up for it as adults. They try to go back and have a childhood because they never had a childhood or adolescence. Then they go wild, sooner or later they turn to drugs because they just feel out of control, they can’t handle their anxiety,” he explains

Haim has struggled with addiction for years and has failed to learn from his numerous visits to rehab. His career had been at a standstill since his early childhood days, and Dr. Haraszti says this downward cycle for a has-been star can be tough.

“Once the music stops, then they feel a tremendous sense of inner emptiness, then they don’t have the skills emotionally and socially and interpersonally to reach out and to start a normal life. What they have experienced is not normal, they can’t redeem that. There are many younger stars who come along and take their place and they become has-beens and after a while people forget their names even.”

We think it’s a story told too many times in Hollywood and unfortunately it seems that friends and family could not help Corey.

“Too much money, too much fame, everything too soon just results in overwhelming problems,” Dr. Haraszti claims.

We agree completely, RIP Corey.

Andrew Koening’s Body Found in Vancouver, B.C.

February 26th, 2010

The search is over. Andrew Koenig, the missing actor from ’80s sitcom Growing Pains was found dead Thursday night in Vancouver, B.C.

At a press conference attended by the late actor’s family Thursday evening, police reported that Koenig’s body was discovered “in a densely wood area … unseen from the path” by “family and friends who initiated their own private search.” Andrew’s father, Star Trek actor Walter Koenig was among the people in the search.

Foul play is not suspected.

“My son took his own life,” his father Walter told reporters, adding that Andrew had been battling depression.

“Don’t ignore it; don’t rationalize it,” he said in regards to depression. “Extend a hand.”

The 41-year-old actor had been missing for ten days before his body was uncovered.

Back on Feb. 16, Andrew never boarded his plane back to Los Angeles, after visiting friends in Vancouver. Additionally, before his trip, he had reportedly moved out of his Venice, Calif., apartment of nine years and had sold numerous belongings.

His parents first called the police after receiving a disturbing letter from their son. They refused to discuss details on the note, but Andrew’s father revealed that his son was not taking medication for depression.

On how his son was coping with depression, Walter told Usmagazine.com, “That is what we are trying to find out … In his point of view, things were not going well.”

Jenny Magenta, a burlesque artist was the last person to see Andrew alive. She told Us he “looked healthy” when he arrived in Vancouver on Feb. 11 to visit her. “We were talking about old times and friends.” But she admitted he soon began acting “out of character,” insisting on paying her for allowing him to stay at her apartment.

“Think about it — a friend who you’ve known for years comes to visit you and they’re wanting to pay you rent?” she told Us. “That’s just weird.”

And Feb. 14 when she woke up, Magenta said Andrew was missing.

“No parent should have to deal with anytime like this,” Koenig’s father Walter told Us in an interview earlier this week.

He described his son as “a good human being who has “an awful lot left to contribute in this world.”

Rest in Peace Andrew. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Despite designer Alexander McQueen’s shocking death last week, his epic line will live on.

In a recent statement to Usmagazine.com, Francois Henri Pinault, cheif executive of parent company of Gucci Group, announced the “trademark” will continue.

“His art went beyond the fashion world,” he said before paying his respects to the late designer. “Fashion has lost one of its extraordinary people. He was one of the falling stars that comes across our generation. He is a person we will miss enormously. A pure genius who was both imaginative and original.”

Gucci Group president Robert Polet added, “We truly believe in the future of the brand.”

McQueen’s rep continued, by stating, “it was Lee’s wish that the brand go on,” adding, “it’s great news. We’re really happy considering the circumstances.”

RIP Alexander. We’re truly grateful to have legacy of your designs live on.

Turns out Jillian Michaels could be the biggest loser!

A third lawsuit against the personal trainer’s Maximum Strength Calorie Control pill supplement was filed on Tuesday in a Los Angeles County Court.

Kathy Hensley claims the diet pills contain a “potentially lethal” ingredient called citrus aurantium, which can cause high blood pressure and cardiac issues in rare instances.

Not only is she suing Jillian, but also the pills’ maker Thin Care, Basic Research and Walgreens. She’s suing for less than $5,000.

After the first suit was filed, Jillian told Us Weekly in a statement that the claims against her supplement, which contain coffee bean extract and guarana, are “entirely without merit.”

She continues by stating, “I stand behind all of my products.”

ThinCare also defended their product exclaiming, “We are confident we will prevail.”
