Taylor Momsen might be out of a job if Dead Hollywood are to be believed because they are reporting that she has been been cut as a series regular from Gossip Girl.
The 17-year-old brat, has come under a lot of fire this year for her antics on stage when singing for the Pretty Reckless, has only been in one episode of Gossip Girl’s fourth season and she is only in one more on monday. After that she is apparently going on an “indefinite hiatus,” Tim Gunn who was in the episode with her didn’t have kind words about her, he said…
“What a diva. She was pathetic, she couldn’t remember her lines, and she didn’t even have that many. I thought to myself, ‘Why are we being held hostage by this brat?’”
But other sources tell E! Online that Taylor isn’t going anywhere and she, along with the rest of the cast, is signed up for seven seasons of the show. Apparently the reason she hasn’t been in it much is simply a creative decision and she is happy with it because it means she can focus on her music career.
I don’t watch the show so have no idea if she is any good on it, but I must admit I do like the Pretty Reckless album.
In September, five teenage boys killed themselves after being physically or verbally (or both) assaulted for being gay.
The suicides of Tyler Clementi, 18, Billy Lucas, 15, Asher Brown, 13, Justin Aaberg, 15, and Seth Walsh, 13, have brought national attention to the epidemic of bullying in American schools.
Now, a number of stars, many of whom have personal experience with anti-gay bullying, are speaking out in hopes of raising awareness and providing support to teens and young adults who are being victimized or who are having trouble dealing with their sexuality. The topic is also addressed in a cover story for this week’s People magazine and in a week-long series on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360.
Most recently, ‘Project Runway‘ mentor Tim Gunn spoke candidly about his own suicide attempt and his support for The Trevor Project, a national 24-hour, toll-free confidential suicide hotline for gay and questioning youth. “I understand the desperation. I understand the despair,” an emotional Gunn said with tears in his eyes. “And I understand how isolated you can feel … It will get better. I promise.”
Comedienne Sarah Silverman has inspired some controversy by positing that a national atmosphere of institutionalized homophobia, as exemplified by the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy as well as campaigns for constitutional amendments to ban civil marriage for same-sex couples, are at the heart of this epidemic.

Well look what we have here, Heidi Klum is looking stunningly hot in in this photoshoot for TV Digital Magazine.
I’m sure some of these photographs have been used before, but does it really matter? If you’re complaining then I thhink your crazy, as far as I am concerned complaining about these pictures being used again is like complaining about finding money twice in a row.
In other news, Heidi has urged fans that they should go protest outside Harvey Weinstein‘s home in order to see the sixth season of her reality show Project Runway.
Even though they shot the finale and chose the winner for the sixth season at New York Fashion Week last month, the show has still to see the day of light. With previous season, the show would have started earning before Fashion Week and then the finale would be after it.
Weinstein’s production company and NBC Universal are involved in a lawsuit because NBC feels screwed over after Weinstein sold the rights for the sixth season to Lifetime Network, instead of giving Bravo (part of NBC) the chance to renew their contract as Project Runway has been on Bravo since it began airing.
Heidi says “I think that people should be demonstrating outside of Harvey Weinstein’s house. If it were up to me, it would be on by now.”
Well, I hope something happens because I need my Project Runway fix and miss hearing Heidi Klum saying “Auf Weidersehen!”
Heidi Klum, through her spokesperson, has finally spoken out about the comments saying she was too heavy for the runway.
Just in case you don’t know, last week German fashion designer Wolfgang Joop made comments saying Heidi “is simply too heavy and has too big a bust. And she always grins so stupidly. That is not avant-garde – that is commercial!â€
Needless to say Heidi isn’t happy, the statement released by her spokesperson says “Wolfgang is obviously trying to revive his sagging career and get press for himself by riding Heidi’s coattails.”
Heidi’s friend and Project Runway co star Tim Gunn also gave his opinion saying “it’s totally ridiculous! Heidi is a sensitive soul, and it’s very troubling to her. If she’s fat, other women should throw themselves off a train. I can wrap my hand around her bicep.”

Last month I posted about Karolina Kurkovaalso being called fat, this is just ridiculous Heidi Klum is a real fat ass isn’t she? These fashion bosses need to look up the word fat.
Project Runway’s Tim Gunn has recorded a video to tell California voters to vote no on proposition 8, a November ballot initiative that would eliminate same-sex couples’ right to marry.
Gunn follows in the footsteps of Steven Spielberg and Brad Pitt who have each donated $100,000 to fight prop 8.
If you’re in California, what are you voting for prop 8?
