Carrie Prejean went on Larry King last night to talk about her new book. Unfortunately, Larry King asked about her motivation to settle her lawsuit — she let him know how inappropriate he was.
Even though Larry dropped the subject by taking a phone call, Carrie Prejean still wanted no part of it and removed her microphone. However, instead of leaving the state, she just sat there with this goofy look on her face.
Does she have any idea how ridiculous she looked? Nobody is going to buy her stupid book.
How many words have the same meaning as the word hot? Well every single one of those words are what you can use to describe Heidi Klum.
Heidi has never been afraid to get naked, so she is releasing a new photography book that basically shows her semi naked in every single picture. But the best thing is in some of the pictures she is covered in chocolate syrup.
The model, her husband Seal and photographer Rankin have been working on this book for years. You may or may not have seen someone of these pictures before.
Speaking on the photoshoot she said “We were doing our normal shoot and afterwards he said, ”Let’’s do some pictures… for the book.” I said, ”I would love to be covered in chocolate.” So someone ran out to the drugstore and got, like, seven or eight of those squirty chocolate things and they just squirted it all over me and he took the photo,. It was yummy… especially when you”re pregnant.I licked half of it up.
Jodie Sweetin is finally coming clean — about not really coming clean. Despite her claims that she had kicked her drug habit, the ‘Full House’ star admits she’s was just lying to everyone.
In her new tell-all book ‘unSweetined,’ Sweetin says she relapsed but kept booking gigs to make quick money to pay for her drug addiction.
“I was back to partying like I was at my worst, spending seven hundred dollars a week on meth [and] coke.” she wrote. She even reveals downing a bag of coke right before one of her interviews.
In an excerpts (via Huffington Post), Sweetin writes that during her sobriety college tour at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
“I thought for sure that one of the professors would take one look at me and kick me out. But none did. They wanted to hear about the trials and tribulations of Jodie Sweetin, or at least the Jodie Sweetin I had created by appearing on Good Morning America and talking to People magazine.
The relapse started one day, just a few months after my GMA spot, when I got a random phone call from a friend who I used with and who occasionally sold me drugs. I invited her to my place. I was in an apartment at the time. I knew it was a really bad idea to invite her over but I wanted to test myself, I guess. We hung out, played cards. I told her I hadn’t done meth in a while. One thing led to another and just like that, I was back.”
“I was living a complete lie. But unfortunately, guilt doesn’t make you stop. I talked about growing up on television and about how great my life was now that I was sober… The little bit of coke that I had done before the speech wasn’t enough to make me forget how bad I felt for doing what I was doing. The guilt was eating away at me. I was struggling to keep it together, but no one realized that. I finished. They applauded. Standing ovation. Just how I liked it. And it was over.”
Sweetin admits she returned to her room tired but made time for one more hit. “I was just so tired. Tired of lying. Tired of pretending to be someone that I wasn’t. I took a deep breath and walked out of the lecture hall. I went back to my hotel room and buried my face in my hands. I couldn’t keep doing this. It had to end.But not today. I wiped away the tears and finished the baggie of coke.”
Sweetin’s book will be released on November 3. See more former child stars on Inside TV.
The other day I posted about the cast of The Hills getting paid way too much money , here is even more proof of that.
You see Lauren Conrad’s book, “L.A. Candy,” is being turned into a movie after Temple Hill Entertainment bought the screen rights. Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey will both produce the movie while Lauren will be the executive producer through her Blue Eyed Girl production company.
If you know don’t know much about the book, it’s about Jane Roberts – a 19-year-old girl who moves to Los Angeles and ends up being asked to be the lead girl in a reality show. Sound familiar? It should, that’s basically the life of Lauren Conrad.
Bowen said “Lauren, who became an icon in that reality show world, came to us with a structure of how to tell the story in an interesting fashion that was separate and apart from the book, we loved her take. Her book is an honest portrayal of what it must be like to set out to be normal, then sign on to become famous and eventually realize, wow, this isn’t at all what I’d planned for myself.”
While I loathe the fact that Lauren Conrad and the other people from The Hills make so much money, I do like the fact she is doing something other than the show. Even if it is releasing a movie on a book that she may or may not have written – there is speculation she didn’t but she insists she did.

Yes you read correctly there is a book that centers around Avril Lavigne’s vagina, okay the whole book isn’t about that but it plays a major part in the plot.
The Death of Bunny Munro, by Nick Cave, is described as a sad, scuzzily hysterical tale of the titular door-to-door salesman, obsessed with sex, sex and more sex.
Sounds like my type of book until you add the factor that the sex is Avril Lavigne’s vagina. The book also centers around Bunny Munro, the main character, after his wife commits suicide and his nine-year-old son, Bunny Junior.
Speaking about using Avril’s vagina Nick Cove said, “I wanted to talk to her about it, actually, at the Mojo Awards we got album of the year and they wanted to know who we wanted to present the award. I said Avril Lavigne and they said that she wasn’t a ‘Mojo type of act’, so we got Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull instead. But I would have raised the subject then. I hope she takes it with a sense of humour, but I do appreciate that it is kind of dark. I actually do like Avril Lavigne very much and I don’t want to disrespect her.”
I love vagina and everything but I really don’t need to be thinking about Avril’s coochy in that kind of way. I guess I should be thankful that this is as much of a sex scandal we will get from her.
I wonder what Avril Lavinge would think about this, to me she seems a moody little thing and wouldn’t find this funny. Oh well.

Kendra Wilkinson has let the world see her boobs and funny moments in both of her reality shows, but she is now taking a step further in her career by writing a book.
The memoir which is set for release next summer will supposedly include everything from her life – childhood, getting famous and of course living in the Playboy mansion with Hugh Hefner.
I wonder if the book will dish on the alleged feuds that she had with Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt back when they were all Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends.
Kendra said “I feel like the luckiest girl in the world, I have a husband I adore, a baby on the way, and now my memoir is going to be published!”
The book will be released through Simon Spotlight Entertainment and is described as a “humorous, relatable, fish-out-of-water tale.”
Vice President of the publishing company, Jennifer Bergstrom, said “Kendra is so genuine and funny that her memoir is sure to be unique.”

So apparently Scott Caan is also a photographer as well as an actor because he has released a book with his work in it.
Now normally I wouldn’t care about something like this, except it has come to my attention that this book features Lake Bell topless and showing off her nipples, which you can see below.
The book also features Lindsay Lohan which you can see in one of the pictures, a bunch of other celebrities are pictured in this book too.
The books description….. “This book exposes the raw photojournalism of actor/writer/director/photographer Scott Caan, chronicling his work thus far. This series of unapologetic photos is directed at art connoiseurs, young Hollywood voyeurs, fashionistas, and street-obsessed youth. Scott’s passionate, and gutsy, attitude has distinguished him as a photographer and allowed him to compose intimate images that are without question inaccessible to the masses.”
The book is on Amazon if you care to buy it, but at the price of $37.80 (that’s a sale price, normally it is $60.00) I will be passing on buying this, especially since I’ve seen all I need to.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck ripped off a woman by plagiarizing her disease material — so claims Susan Hassett, who fired off a letter to “The View” host just before suing her.
TMZ obtained the letter — in which Susan claims she sent Elisabeth a book called “Living with Celiac Disease” back in April of ‘08. Thirteen months later, Susan says Hasselbeck published the same book with a new title: “The G Free Diet-A Gluten Free Survival Guide.”
Susan compares chapters and lines. Here are some highlights.
Susan’s Book Chapter 1: What is Celiac Disease?
Hasselbeck Chapter 2: What is Celiac Disease?
Susan’s tips: “Shop in the outer isles of the supermarket.”
Hasselbeck’s tips: “Food in the outer isles of the supermarket.”
And the comparisons go on and on.
Hasselbeck recently discovered she’s long suffered from celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder linked to gluten proteins found in wheat, barley and rye. The disease can cause, among other things, chronic diarrhea and fatigue.

I just wrote the following few paragraphs to try to show off my storytelling and writing ability, in hopes that a book agent will be impressed enough to consider pitching a book deal for me. Compared to the box of video tapes I handed over to be turned into this Sunday’s MTV documentary about me, the thousands of e-mails that I have archived over the years are a much scarier, and plentiful, source of material. I’ve definitely got a book in me, and I’m pretty sure I can write it, too:
In April of 2002, while we were in the middle of shooting the first jackass movie, I got pulled over by a cop in Beverly Hills. The tag on my license plate was expired, my Florida driver’s license was suspended, and I had no insurance. The cop was really cool, he told me that I was breaking enough laws that it was a criminal matter he needed to arrest me for, but he got permission from the police station to release me on the spot after giving me an official piece of paper with a court date on it. My car wasn’t so lucky, the cop told me he had no choice but to have it towed, which he did after calling me a taxi.
As I rolled away in that cab, I said goodbye to my Clown College-issued clown shoes, costume, and make-up, my juggling torches and stilts, and everything else that was in that car- because I’d decided that the tow yard could keep it. I didn’t bother showing up to court, either, which wound up meaning that I had a warrant out for my arrest for six straight years, from 2002-2008. That’s right, when I was waving all that marijuana around in front of those cops in 2005, I had a warrant out for my arrest. I thought it was funny, too. While I was very drunk one night, a bunch of cops stopped me to ask if they could get a photo with me, and I bluntly told them that I had a warrant out for my arrest. They asked me what my real name is and I asked, “If I tell you that, won’t you have to arrest me?”. They said, “Fuck no! What’s your name?” I told them, then one of them looked me up and said, “Yup, you’re hot for 10 G’s!”. They, literally, appraised my warrant, told me to enjoy the rest of my evening, and left me drunk in the streets. For years, I couldn’t help but to try my ass off to get arrested, and it just wouldn’t work.
For the years between 2002-2008, it made total sense to not own a car, because I wasn’t ever sober. Sure, sometimes work (especially Wildboyz) kept me from being really loaded, but anytime I wasn’t working, I was loaded. For my first year of sobriety, it made sense to not own a car as well, because it would have been too tempting to drive the hell out of dodge and get loaded. Not owning a car finally stopped making sense, though, so I got a California driver’s license today, then went and bought a car and insurance. Check it out, it’s my new Nissan Versa!
Paris – pictured yesterday at the Sundance Film Festival – shot to fame when footage of her romping with ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon was made public.
She also caused a stir in 2007 when she was filmed provocatively playing with a shower head in a bath.
Mark’s book is the story of Darnell Riley, a man who took ‘Girls Gone Wild’ millionaire Joe Francis hostage at gunpoint, went on wild nights out with Mickey Rourke and boxed with Salomon – all of who he connects back to Paris.
Darnell claims he bought 14 hours of video of Hilton from two “Russian kids” who had stolen it when they broke into her home.
However, he might not be the most reliable of sources. Darnell is currently serving time in prison for trying to blackmail Francis.
As well as the racy footage, he says there are also excerpts from Paris’ grandmother’s funeral.
“She is sitting in the church shooting video of herself. She is paying no attention to the eulogy.
Paris has Brandon Davis film her when she gets up to say goodbyes to her grandmother.”
Meredith Viera interviewed Lynne Spears on “Today” this morning to talk about her new book “Through the Storm.”
Basically, Lynne lives in her own world where she bakes cookies all day long like a good mother and really didn’t do anything wrong when raising her kids.
In the clip above, Lynne talks about how she wasn’t a stage mother. Britney pushed her. When Britney started to become a star, Lynne couldn’t travel with her, because she had to stay at home and raise Jamie Lynne. She compares it to sending your kids to college.
“You don’t really know what they’re doing in college … just as Britney set out two years earlier to be a star.”
On being a stage mom: “Britney pushed me.”
On it not being possible to be by Britney every second: “Did I want to be there? Of course!” she said. “Was it feasible? It wasn’t.”
On comparing Britney to a kid in college: “You don’t really know what they’re doing in college … just as Britney set out two years earlier to be a star,” she said.
On Britney in Hollywood: “She’s out there, she’s with the crowds and with her peer groups, and she’s doing things — she’s a celebrity, for heaven’s sake!”
On Britney’s 1999 Rolling Stone cover: “We didn’t really know what we were doing…We were so in awe,” she said. “I never even bought [Rolling Stone], but I just heard this is a really big deal.”
On not knowing what was going on: “We didn’t have any choice over pictures … We had no one who could tell us what we were supposed to be doing.”
On getting sucked into fame: “There was that honeymoon period where it looked like she could do no wrong,” Lynne said. “Then there’s that ugly side of fame … and we weren’t ready for that.”
On Britney’s downfall: “I don’t think anybody was even trying to sit and think of what was going on,” she said. “We were praying very hard. It seemed like we had no control over what was happening.”
On looking back at everything: “I have sat for hours, thinking and thinking about everything that’s happened. It’s been a whirlwind. When you mix extreme heightened celebrity hood and then when you have heartache … The mixture’s just not healthy.”
And in the clip below, Lynne talks about how she was shocked to learn about Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy. I guess she had no idea that her 16 year old daughter was sleeping around?
Isn’t it cute how Lynne doesn’t accept the blame for anything?

Sir Paul McCartney and Yoko Ono are furious after a new book they helped with accuses John Lennon of wanting a gay relationship with Macca.
The book also alleges that Lennon fantasized about sleeping with his mother.
Yoko, 75, agreed to be interviewed for John Lennon: The Life, written by respected Beatles author Philip Norman, McCartney also co-operated.
But she and Macca are now distancing themselves from it and Yoko has withdrawn her endorsement. A friend said: “Both Sir Paul and Yoko are extremely angry and upset.”

She’s already a reality star and a fashion designer, but Lauren Conrad is adding another title to her crowded resume: Author.
Conrad, 22, has signed on to write a three-book series of young adult fiction for HarperCollins. The books – the first of which is scheduled to hit shelves in the summer of 2009 – will be loosely inspired by Conrad’s own experience going from an ordinary teen to a reality TV star.
“It’s definitely influenced by my own life,” said Conrad. “The books are about a girl who moves to L.A. and stars in a reality show, so obviously there are some similarities.”
So will Hills costars like Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt or Brody Jenner wind up as in Conrad’s series? Not exactly.
“I’m not trying to do a fictional story based on all my friends in my real life because their stories aren’t really mine to tell. Some of the characters may symbolize people in my life, but it is in no way calling anyone out.”
They’ll give anyone a book deal these days — on a more interesting note, did you know there was a “Feet Magazine“?

Britney Spears recently spoke with OK! magazine and shared a few insights — about her children and her mom, Lynne Spears, new “tell all” book.
If you were questioning Britney’s current lack of effort to win joint custody of her sons, Preston and Jayden, from her ex-husband Kevin Federline — the young mother hasn’t given up.
“Her goal is to regain joint custody of her sons, as soon as her dad Jamie’s status as her conservator ends.”
AND… in spite of all the controversy surrounding Lynne’s memoirs, it’s reported that there is no controversy.
“Regardless of what people might think, Britney isn’t upset about the book. After a tough last year, Brit and Lynne have a wonderful relationship again.”
Sounds like Larry Randolf is back to doing his job again. I’m glad that Britney and Lynne are talking again, but her parents still bother me.
If they had spent more time being parents, and less time looking for ways to benefit financially from Britney — well, let’s just say the last chapter might have been written differently.
It’s coming….the mother of knocked up at 16 Jamie Lynn Spears and ham sandwich crazy Britney Spears has her book.
“Through the Storm” is a guide on her experience in the tabloid rodeo of the Spears drama. It will hit bookstores on August 16th. I know every new parent is eager to get their hands on the info from the ultimate pimp, Lynn Spears.
Lynne was just an ordinary Southern mom when the overnight success of her daughter Britney shoved the Spears family into the blinding limelight glare.
Through the Storm takes readers beyond the reach of the paparazzi and outside the narrow orbit of the Hollywood glitterati to share the inside story of the Spears family-as only a mother can tell it.
In this openhearted memoir, Lynne speaks about Britney, Jamie Lynn, Bryan, ex-husband Jamie, herself, and their lives together from Louisiana to Los Angeles, including:
* Lynne’s backseat role in Britney’s path to fame and how it forever changed their family
* Her regret in abdicating parental authority to managers, agents, and record companies
* The challenges that shaped Lynne and Jamie’s marriage and how that affected Bryan, Britney, and Jamie Lynn
* Her response to Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy
* The startling events that led to Britney’s meltdown and Lynne’s showdown with manager Sam Lufti
* How faith, family, and friendships have been her harbor in the storm of paparazzi, tabloid scribblers, and gossip hounds
Sincere, self-effacing, sometimes spunky, Lynne’s memoir reveals the heart of a mother who has struggled through difficult times and how she has held onto her faith and her sense of humor as she tries to hold onto her family.
Reportedly, Brit-Brit is super pissed her mother is continuing to suck at the teat of her empire. The memoir was originally set to come out over Mother’s Day of this year, but after Jamie got knocked up it put a hold on things. The title was also rumored to be ‘Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World.’
Personally I don’t understand this. It is about as smart as taking a laxative and sleeping pills at the same time. Or like taking makeup tips from Amy Winehouse. Eh, you get my drift. Plus the cover photo looks like a senior picture, delightfully tacky and over posed.
