Bong-hitter Michael Phelps has been dropped by a major sponsor in light of his pot-smoking controversy! Cereal maker Kellogs says they are not renewing the swimmer's contract when it expires at the end of this month. In a statement on Thursday night, they say:
Thankfully for him, Phelps has a bunch of other advertisers - paying him tens of millions of dollars - who are all standing by him. Will they for much longer? [Image via WENN.] |
| Octo-Mom Is Not Getting Freebies! Posted: 05 Feb 2009 07:45 PM CST
Looks like Octo-Mom is fucked! While most fertility "miracles" receive gifts from strangers and lifetime supplies of diapers, clothing, and food from companies, it looks like the Octo-Mom backlash may get her…nothing! Hollywood publicist David Brokaw (not Suleman's publicist) said that the negative reactions will hinder Suleman's ability to land freebies, calling the whole situation a "calamity" because it doesn't seem like "the way this is shaped, how you can say much about it in terms of something favorable." Spokespersons for Gerber and Procter & Gamble pretty much said that Octo-Mom isn't getting anything from them. Suleman's spokesbitch, Mike Furtney, however, said, "I don't remember the brand name, but one major disposable diaper company sent some diapers." Riiight. He went to say that he is confident that once Suleman tells her story, her critics will "readjust their thinking a little." Don't bet on it. [Image via WENN.] |
| Angelina Jolie Requests Aid For Refugees In Thailand Posted: 05 Feb 2009 07:30 PM CST
And she's off! Our favorite celebutarian embarked on another humanitarian mission this week. Angelina Jolie has asked the Thai government to grant Myanmar refugees in northern Thailand greater liberties. Saint Ang was busy goodwilling over in Thailand on Wednesday, spending a day listening to refugees tell their tales of the difficulties they have faced during years of living in camps. An unstable political environment has forced people from Myanmar to flee to Thailand, which already generously hosts other refugees. Jolie asked for more freedom of movement for the refugees, banking on Thailand's past with fleeing people. She said, "I was saddened to meet a 21-year-old woman who was born in a refugee camp, who has never even been out of the camp and is now raising her own child in a camp. With no foreseeable chance that these refugees will soon be able to return to Burma (Myanmar), we must find some way to help them work and become self reliant." Her name has the word "angel" in it for a reason! Click here to find out more. [Image via UNHCR/K.McKinsey.] |

Perez just shot a cameo in Dolly Parton's new music video!!!!!!!!!!!! The beginning of 2009 has been the best two months ever!!! Seriously. We thought things couldn't get any better than last year, but they have - and we are so incredibly grateful and awed. Dolly is one of the nicest, most genuine people we have met in our travels. We instantly said yes when asked to be in her new video. Actually, we screamed yes. Perez was THAT excited! Miz Parton - in that very colorful outfit - shot part of the vid for her song Backwoods Barbie while strolling along Hollywood Blvd, and Perezzers is one of the many colorful characters she encounters along the way. Backwoods Barbie is the title track off Dolly's new CD, and it's our favorite song on the album! The song has a special place in Dolly's heart too, as it's the only tune in the collection that also is featured in her new 9 to 5 musical. Can't wait to see how the finished vid turns out!!!!

Australia is celebrating some of their most notable actors by placing their images on the country's stamps. And they're not even dead yet! The famous Aussies, Cate Blanchett, Russell Crowe, Nicole Kidman, and Geoffrey Rush, are all getting their own stamps. TWO stamps actually! The 55 cent stamps (worth about 35 US cents) will feature a professional photo shot of the actors. The second stamp will feature each of them in their most notables roles, such as Cate in Elizabeth and Crowe in Gladiator. Cate even joked that she felt "utterly, deeply humbled and chuffed" by receiving such an honor. I'm going to be licked by millions of Australians and I can't wait." Dirrrty girl! Kidman says "Something like this – when you see your face on a stamp – says, 'wow'." Adding that one day her kids might be able to "lick a stamp, put it on an envelope and say, 'That's my mum'." Could you imagine if you saw Tom Cruise on the stamps here? Who do U think should get their own official US Stamp? We'd like to lick Robert Pattinson! |
