Kanye West had a pensive moment during a performance in England on Saturday night and likened himself to one of the biggest monsters in history — none other than Adolf Hitler.
While performing at the Big Chill music festival Saturday night, Kanye went on one of his signature rants saying,
“And once again I wake up, and I’m a monster. And I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street and people look at me like I’m f–king insane, like I’m Hitler,” the singer explained.
What an odd comparison.
West didn’t stop there, saying that he was the Michael Jordan of music. “Michael Jordan changed so much in basketball, he took his power to make a difference. It’s so much f–king going on in music right now and somebody has to make a f–king difference.”
Octomom (Nadya Suleman) claims she never gave the interview in which she allegedly professed, “I am absolutely DISGUSTED by babies.”
But … she lied.
Excerpts of the interview were originally published last month by InTouch Magazine, but Octomom denied ever making the statements, saying every single quote that was attributed to her from the interview was false.
Kim Kardashian is just one of many celebrities who jumped on Twitter to express their feelings on Casey Anthony‘s not guilty verdict.
Kim responded, “WHAT!!!!???!!!! CASEY ANTHONY FOUND NOT GUILTY!!!! I am speechless!!!”
Critics were quick to remind Kardashian of the similarities between Anthony’s verdict and Simpson’s 16 years ago.
“It’s like when your dad helped get OJ off,” said one critic.
In 1995, Kim’s father, Robert Kardashian, served as one of OJ Simpson‘s defense lawyers. The two men first met in the early 1970s and became close friends. When Simpson, now 63, was tried for murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman, Robert Kardashian reactivated his license to practice law to aid in Simpson’s defense.
Simpson also stayed in the Kardashian house in the days following the murders. At the time, Kim was 13 years old. Simpson was found not guilty, but in 2008 was sent to prison for robbery, kidnapping and conspiracy.
“Reading the comments here & its nuts people think just bc I was close to the OJ trial I can’t have my own opinion on the Casey Anthony case?”
The British singer has recently ignited quite the controversy over this photo posted on his Facebook page with the simple caption “Err… this is my hotel in Poland.”
The picture may seem harmless with Blunt posing in front of a dilapidated building, but it’s the building’s close proximity to the Nazi concentration camp Auschwitz that has enraged fans and anti-fans alike on the comments section of Blunt’s Facebook page.
Over 6,000 people have commented on the singer’s photo in a variety of languages stating their discontent. According to The Daily Mail, Blunt actually stayed in a five-star hotel before his performance at the Life Festival in Poland.
Adele is receiving some major backlash, after making comments about the amount she has to pay in taxes.
“I’m mortified to have to pay 50 percent!” the “Rolling in the Deep” singer recently, reports Metro.
“While I use the NHS, I can’t use the public transport any more. Trains are always late, most state schools are shit and I’ve gotta give you, like, four million quid – are you having a laugh?”
What did her fans think?
“God that Adele pop singer is such a moron,” one tweeted. “Her comments on tax are ignorant. I’m pretty sure it’s just her way.”
Adding to the resentment, another said, “Got my paycheck today. Looking at the amount I take home after taxes and insurance is just depressing. F— you, Adele.”
When it comes to Chelsea Handler it seems like nobody is safe from her jokes, especially when they are hot in the news at the moment. Because of this Zimbio have come up with a list of 14 celebrities that Chelsea has gone in on.
Angelina Jolie
One of the most venomous of Chelsea’s diatribes was directed at actress Angelina Jolie. In a 2010 New Jersey standup performance, Handler ranted, “She can rescue as many babies from as many countries as she wants to. I don’t f**king believe you … she gives interviews, ‘I don’t have a lot of female friends.’ Cause you’re a f**king c**t … you’re a f **king b**ch.”
MTV’s Teen Moms
While Chelsea hasn’t directed any disses at any of the individuals on 16 and Pregnant, she’s made it clear that she isn’t a fan of the Teen Mom phenomenon. “Getting rewarded for being pregnant when you’re a teenager? Are you serious? I mean, that makes me want to kill somebody,” Handler told the New York Times.
Tori Spelling
Chelsea has trashed Tori Spelling innumerable times on her show, prompting Tori to joke, “I want to thank you for finding ways to say I’m ugly and stupid, week after week” at the 2009 Bravo A-List Awards. Handler responded, “I want to thank her for being able to take a joke. I’m going to try my hardest not to tell her she looks like a man anymore. It’s not nice. Even if it’s true, it’s not nice.”
Heidi Montag
Chelsea dislikes Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt so much, she won’t have them on her show. But she will make fun of them. Once, after airing a clip of Montag’s beachy music video, Chelsea exclaimed, “While I was watching this I was hoping a giant jellyfish would leap out of the ocean and sting one of her big, fake boobies!”
Kim Kardashian
Chelsea Handler shares a network with Kim Kardashian, which perhaps explains how Kim has managed to avoid too much scrutiny on Chelsea Lately. Still, she did have her brother recite the lyrics to Kim’s mega-fail single “Jam (Turn It Up)” on air, highlighting the masterful lyricism of Kim’s first musical opus.
Lindsay Lohan
In June 2010, Chelsea ran a skit about Lindsay Lohan’s family visiting the actress in prison. In the skit, Dina (played by Chelsea) spirited cocaine, cigarettes, a bottle of Belvedere and Samantha Ronson into prison using her, uh, private parts (ew). Lindsay must not have been terribly insulted, however, as she filmed a cameo for Handler’s hosting gig at the MTV VMAs just three months later. Too bad it wasn’t all that funny.
Perez Hilton
After the 2010 MTV VMAs, Perez Hilton wrote that Chelsea “didn’t really pull it off…For the most part, we were bored and just hoping she would shut the hell up so we could hear more music.” Chelsea took to Twitter to write, “Oh, f**k off. I had a blast and the show awesome last night. Bomb? Your life is a bomb.”
Jay Mohr
Sober comedian Jay Mohr tweeted in March 2010, “Just saw Chelsea Handler in the lobby of my hotel. She was so drunk she could hardly walk. I think someone has a wee bit of a problem.” Handler countered, “Jay Mohr thinks I ‘stumbled’ past him last night. There’s a big difference between stumbling by and just not interested.”
Michelle ‘Bombshell’ McGee
In the wake of Jesse James’ cheating scandal, Chelsea wrote in her blog of James’ mistress Michelle McGee: “Denny McGee said that Michelle really believed that Sandra and Jesse were separated and was “shocked” to see them together at the Oscars. I guess she doesn’t read magazines, which makes sense since she basically has one on her face.”
Kirstie Alley
In her explanation of why she’d never be on Dancing with the Stars, Chelsea told Joy Behar, “[I] can’t even watch it. I mean, obviously I had to watch when Kirstie Alley was on because I had to see what was going to happen to the floor, but I just… I can’t watch that show.”
Mariah Carey/Nick Cannon
In October 2010, Handler tweeted, “I just heard Nick Cannon is starting a comedy tour. Who’s going to do the comedy?” Cannon fired off a series of tweets in retaliation, calling Handler “ugly white trash.” The two later worked things out in person, and Cannon explained that he’d already been offended by a joke Handler had made about Nick’s wife, Mariah Carey—namely that she looked like she could be Nick’s mother.
John Mayer
Chelsea must have hit a nerve when she joked of John Mayer, “I liked him before he started talking. I liked his singing, and then he ruined it with talking. It’s just like if I started to sing, you got that d**chebag?” Mayer took to his now-defunct twitter to write, “I’m trying to figure out why Chelsea Handler has such seething hatred for me. I must remind her of someone she knows and doesn’t like.”
The Jonas Brothers
Chelsea has poked fun at the Jonas Brothers many a time, most notably with a February 2010 skit in which Taylor Swift (played by Chelsea) visited the brothers backstage before one of their shows, bragging about how she’s going to find dudes without purity rings.
Paris Hilton
In 2009, Jenny McCarthy and Chelsea Handler shared the story of an encounter with Paris Hilton at the Bravo A-List Awards. It wasn’t complimentary. Beforehand, Chelsea quipped, “I’ve actually met her before but she doesn’t know when she’s met someone before ’cause she’s so stupid.”
I’m not a big fan of Chelsea, I think she can seem quite bitter and unfunny at her jokes some times but I’m not going to lie some of these did make me laugh.
Last week it was reported that Katy Perry’s mother, Mary Perry Hudson, was shopping around a memoir to many news outlets. Hudson says that the book isn’t a tell all about her daughter but she does discuss her and she isn’t pleased with Katy’s career choice. Page Six got their hands on part of the book and here is what she says:
On Katy’s boobs: “Katy stepped out from behind the changing doors in a tiny risqué costume. No mother wants to see the top of her daughter’s boobs . . . My first instinct was to order her back behind those doors and demand she put something else on . . . However, I had no problem letting my eyebrows say what I wouldn’t allow my mouth to utter.”
On Katy’s first song ‘I Kissed A Girl’: “I recognized the psalmist gift in her performance. Yet she sang out, ‘I kissed a girl, and I liked it,’ while thousands joined her. One part of my heart soared . . . the other part broke for the thousands of hungry souls being fed something that didn’t nourish their spirit, but fed their flesh.”
It’s no secret that Katy was brought up with a strict Christian upbringing but she never really discusses it. Her mother says that she hopes Katy somehow gives up her pop career and turns into a “a Kathryn Kuhlman type of healer.” I find it funny how she says this isn’t a tell all book but then she disses her daughter in it.
Rapper 50 Cent sent out a few insensitive tweets in the aftermath of the devastating Japan earthquake and tsunami, and the Twitterverse was not pleased.
The rapper took to Twitter Friday while the U.S. West Coast braced for a potential tsunami, writing, “Wave will hit 8am them crazy white boys gonna try to go surfing.”
He also tried to make light of the international emergency. “Look this is very serious people I had to evacuate all my hoess from LA, Hawaii and Japan. I had to do it. Lol,” he wrote.
He also tweeted, “Its all good Till b**ches see there christian louboutins floating down da street shit gone get crazy.”
After receiving a flood of backlash for his comments, he defended his right to tweet whatever he wants, claiming he does it for the “shock value.”
“Nah this is nuts but what can anyone do about it. Let’s pray for anyone who has lost someone,” he tweeted. “Some of my tweets are ignorant I do it for shock value. Hate it or love it. I’m cool either way 50cent.”
Meanwhile, other celebrities are showing their support for the people of Japan. Lady Gagatweeted Friday, “I Designed a Japan Prayer Bracelet….ALL proceeds will go to Tsunami Relief Efforts. Go Monsters.”
Supermodel Petra Nemcova, who famously survived the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami in Thailand, is closely monitoring the situation in Japan. After her harrowing experience, she created the Happy Hearts Foundation, which helps children affected by natural disasters.
“My heart goes out to the people of Japan,” she said. “I speak for all the Happy Hearts Fund team, volunteers and supporters around the world when I say that we are thinking of them today and will be through the rebuilding process.”
The Red Cross urges: “Text REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation to help those affected by the earthquake in Japan and tsunami throughout the Pacific.”
Slash has done an interview for Entertainment Weekly in which he talks about going on tour with Ozzy Osbourne, and other stuff that doesn’t really interest me. He was asked how he would feel about Glee doing a Guns N’ Roses themed episode and here is what he said…
“Actually, we got asked about that once already but it got turned down. In the current climate of what’s going on in entertainment these days, I try to be more optimistic than negative because it’s really easy to get negative about it, but I draw the line at Glee. Glee is worse than Grease and Grease is bad enough…. When Grease came out I was like, “Oh, c’mon, give me a break.” Actually, I look at Grease now and think: Between High School Musical and Glee, Grease was a brilliant work of art.”
I couldn’t agree more with him on Glee. But when it comes to Grease, as cheesy as it is, I love it.

Kanye West is a real gem, isn’t he? Apparently, the rapper tried to hijack Britney Spears today on Twitter. Just like he did to Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, Kanye tweeted the following message:
Not to be outdone, Britney’s manager, Adam Leber, posted a reply in true sarcastic fashion. I love it. Still, ‘Ye got some flack for the tweet, even though it was meant to be funny.
Thus, he has since deleted the message and added this instead, “On a serious note I’m truly happy for @AvrilLavigne and @BritneySpears… No hate in 2011!”
He added, “I thought LOL signified a joke… I didn’t get the 2011 LOL doesn’t signify a joke anymore memo… LOL or something else I guess.”
“I guess” that it would’ve been a good “joke” if this were 2009. Just sayin’.
It was all laughs between Jake Gyllenhaal and Natalie Portman at the Palm Springs International Film Festival this past weekend.
Gyllenhaal presented Portman with the Desert Palm Achievement Award at the festival, but had a few words to say about his newly engaged — and pregnant — ex-girlfriend before giving her the award.
“Natalie is the Audrey Hepburn of our generation,” the actor told the crowd. “She is elegant, graceful, has amazing eyebrows … is talented, really short, funny, smart, dedicated, incredibly kind.”
Gyllenhaal, who had everyone, including Portman’s fianceBenjamin Millepied, laughing along, continued to roast his close friend.
“She’s a vegan, which makes it really frustrating when you’re picking a place to eat,” he said, before adding, “She’s also recently announced that she’s going to be a mom, and her child will probably need therapy after seeing ‘Black Swan.’”
Gyllenhaal and Portman briefly dated in 2006. She recently announced her engagement and pregnancy with Millepied, her ‘Black Swan’ choreographer and dance partner.
Apparently, Ashton Kutcher wants to save his family from the end of the world — so he works out in preparation. No, you really can’t make this stuff up!
Ashton appears on the front cover of the new “Men’s Fitness” and talked to their reporter about the apocalypse. He says that when the crap hits the fan, it will boil down to the survival of the fittest. He says that when he’s jogging up Runyon Canyon near his home, he pretends that he’s being chased by wild animals. He endures hours of Bikram yoga and pretends he’s in a desert without water…and why? It’s because of the upcoming apocalypse! Of course.
He said, “If the sh*t hits the fan, you can get out of the sh*t.” Fine wisdom there, pal. He went on to reveal that his purpose is to save his family from Armageddon. He said, “It won’t take very much, I’m telling you. It will not take much for people to hit the panic button. The amount of convenience that people rely on based on electricity alone. You start taking out electricity and satellites, and people are going to lose their noodle. People don’t have maps anymore. People use their iPhones or GPS systems, so if there’s no electricity, nobody has maps. And people are going to go, ‘That land’s not your, prove that it’s yours’, and the only thing you have to prove it’s yours is on an electric file. Then it’s like, ‘What’s the value of currency, and whose food is whose?’ People’s alarm systems at their homes will no longer work.”
He went on to say, “Neither will our heating, our garbage disposals, hot-water heaters that run on gas but depend on electricity – what happens when all our modern conveniences fail? I’m going to be ready to take myself and my family to a safe place where they don’t have to worry.”
Someone’s been smokin’ the cray-cray sauce!

Bristol Palin really wants to be a role model, you guys!
During the taping of “Dancing With The Stars”, Bristol was referred to as a “teen activist”. She also filmed a PSA with The Situation, urging people to practice safe sex. Keith Olbermann took offense to Bristol and nailed her on his show (not literally), calling her his Worst Person In The World.
Recently, a left wing commentator named Keith Olbermann attacked me for being a spokesperson for abstinence education and for being an Ambassador for the Candies Foundation, which promotes teen pregnancy awareness and prevention education. He went so far as to call me “the worst person” he knows, apparently, for my efforts to educate teenagers about the real world risks of premarital sex.
Accusing me of hypocrisy is by now, an old canard. What Mr. Olbermann lacks in originality he makes up for with insincere incredulity. Mr. Olbermann fails to understand that in order to have credibility as a spokesperson, it sometimes takes a person who has made mistakes. Parents warn their children about the mistakes they made so they are not repeated. Former gang members travel to schools to educate teenagers about the risks of gang life. Recovered addicts lecture to others about the risks of alcohol and drug abuse. And yes, a teen mother talks about the benefits of preventing teen pregnancy.
I have never claimed to be perfect. If that makes me the “worst person in the world” to Mr. Olbermann, then I must apologize for not being absolutely faultless like he undoubtedly must be.
To Mr. Olbermann let me say this: you can attack me all you want. But you will not stop me from getting my message out about teen pregnancy prevention. And one day, if you ever have a daughter, you may change your mind about me.
Bristol Palin
CANARD?!?? She did NOT write this. She couldn’t have. It sounds like something Mama Grizzly had concocted so her daughter wouldn’t be perceived as an idiot.

Fonda wants all of her fans to know that she is “fine” and is out promoting her newest fitness DVDs. Her new Primetime Fitness DVDs will hit stores on November 30, while she will re-launch her Fonda Workout brand with a series of DVDs and workout equipment on December 26.
