Harrison's Son Attacked by Dog

Whit Honea — Fri, 22 May 2009 18:14:00 GMT

There is some scary news coming out of Pittsburgh. Steelers linebacker James Harrison's son was reportedly attacked by a pit bull.

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Harrison owns three dogs and one of them "got loose" which would imply they aren't family pets, and attacked his son James III, whose age has not been released.

James III was taken to the local Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. Reports are that a second person was also injured.

Our thoughts to the Harrison family.

Beyonce Covers Her Tummy - Is There Something She's Hiding?

trix — Thu, 14 May 2009 12:25:00 GMT

Beyonce, don't you know the only reason any celebrity covers up while at the beach?

Could Beyonce be pregnant? Check out the pictures here, it looks like she's covering her stomach. She's probably not pregnant and just wanted to hide the hamburger she had for lunch, but still, I must report.

What could it mean for her tour if she is pregnant? She has 7 months left and it's a pretty grueling set that would wreak havoc on any pregnant girl. She might have to tone it down, maybe that would make her dance with the beat of the songs.

Maybe it's just me, but I think she dances way to fast for a lot of the songs she sings.

Beyonce Is Planning 2 Year Baby Hiatus?

trix — Wed, 13 May 2009 12:33:00 GMT

Beyonce must really trying to please Jay -Z, because she's announced she's going to take 2 years off from work.

If you can call what she's been doing work.

Beyonce said: "My priorities are slowly changing. So after this tour I might be tired and want to take two years off. I've worked hard enough to be able to do that. I'm in a very good place."

"We try to sync our calendars. I started working on my tour a year ago just to make sure that I had time at home. Any other woman who has to go to work and pick up the kids and make dinner - that's way harder than what I have to do. At least I can say I'm taking two weeks off and really take two weeks off."

If she's been working super hard for the last few years, I want her job. I can sing almost as well and if I have a trainer kick my tush, I could have just as good of a body.

I really wouldn't want her job, would you?

How long do you think it will be before she gets knocked up?

Malia and Sasha - Breaking Promises Already

trix — Mon, 04 May 2009 11:33:00 GMT

It's nice to know that Sasha and Malia Obama are just like every other kid out there when it comes to promises they make.

It seems the girls are slacking on their daily doggie duties. Michelle says, "Even though the kids are supposed to do a lot of the work, I'm still up at 5:15 a.m. taking my dog out. So for everyone who has a child asking for a puppy – you have to want the dog."

So the first family is just like mine and yours, with us parents left holding the bag and cleaning up after our kids and their most fervent wishes.

Are the Obamas Cheapskates?

Beyonce Knowles Is Pregnant?

trix — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 14:33:00 GMT

Beyonce Knowles has a lot going for her right now. She has a new movie that she is promoting, a successful marriage and singing career, now all she needs is a baby.

Beyonce revealed that she is just about ready to start a family and is planning what kind of career shift she will need to make, to allow time for her family.

She wants to make a move to Broadway, because she thinks it will be the ideal job to raise kids.

She said: “It’s my ideal job, because I’ll be able to drop my kids off, maybe make some food - maybe I’ll know how to cook by then - and then go do what I love and kind of have some normalcy and a regular schedule everyday.”

I think she may be forgetting about the whole, you know, first couple of years, unless of course she plans on having a nanny or dropping them off at daycare right off the bat.

She also says she hopes to have a daughter someday. She wants to have the same kind of relationship with a daughter as she does with her mom.

She realizes that she's actually going to have to spend time with a child to develop a close relationship with her, right.

Michelle Obama Weighs in On BO

trix — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 20:02:00 GMT

Bo Obama has been in the White House for a week and the verdict is in.

Michelle Obama says the dog is "Crazy."

She said that "Bo" loves to bark and play and also likes to chew on people's feet. She did say, she is spending lots of time walking and training Bo.

I bet the girls just love him, I wonder whose bed he sleeps on or if he's relegated to a dog house.

Is Miley Cyrus Too Good For The Obamas?

trix — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:30:00 GMT

Okay, so it's really hard for the Obama girls to head out to the movies like every other little girl out there so they asked Miley Cyrus if she be willing to send them a copy of the movie for a White House Screening.

Guess what the brat with a sense of entitlement said, she said NO!

Miley said, "They want me to send them a copy, so we will - but, like everyone else, they have to wait 'til April 10th. Even the President."

Wow! I guess she won't ever be invited to the White House, poor girl, she really thinks something of herself doesn't she?

Michelle Obama Wants To Be A Role Model

trix — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 12:32:00 GMT

So, I think we've all done the Michelle Obama isn't pregnant thing to death.

What we haven't discussed though, is her dedication to her workout regimen. Not only is she determined to be in the best shape of her life, she wants her daughters to, " See a mother who takes care of herself, even if that means I have to get up at 4:30 so I can do a workout."

She also described Barack's excitement at Sasha's interest in basketball, "Barack's losing his mind, I was like, 'Settle down - don't act too excited, or she will not want to do it.'"

That's awesome, my husband and I try to take a little time each day to stop and play and do something physical with our boys for the same reason.

Barack Obama Opens Up About Sasha's Health Scare

trix — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 13:32:00 GMT

Last week Barack Obama told all of the internet how much he loves nurses. He went on to explain why he loves them during Thursday's Internet town-hall meeting.

He went on to explain that, “When Sasha, our little precious pea, was just three months old, she was hospitalized with life-threatening meningitis. The doctors did a terrific job, but frankly, it was the nurses that were there with us when she had to get a spinal tap and all sorts of things that were just bringing me to tears. And we’ve got a problem in this country, which is we have a shortage of nurses.”

”I’m biased toward nurses. “I just like nurses.”

It's such a scary situation when your child is in the hospital. You have no control and all you want to do is take their place.

I didn't know that Sasha was sick when she was little, maybe the Obamas do know what it's like to be the rest of us.

Michelle Obama Towers Over Other Women

trix — Sat, 28 Mar 2009 17:03:00 GMT

Two famous moms got together to laugh it up while is Washington D.C. while promoting and celebrating Women's History Month.

Michelle Obama and Sheryl Crow were photographed together, both all decked out in black.

How tiny is Sheryl Crow, that she can wear heels and still be shorter than Michelle Obama, who happens to be wearing flats? She's at least 4 inches shorter with heels and I can't quite tell how tall her shoes are, but it definitely has a sizable heel.

There's nothing like being the tall one of the bunch, I'm tall and have never felt delicate, I'm sure Michelle Obama has the same feelings at times.

Sasha and Malia are going to be really tall, good thing their mom is tall. She will be able to help them not feel as awkward as they might, growing up.

Barack and Michelle Obama are Still Parents First

trix — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 12:32:00 GMT

How long did your parent teacher conference last this year, 5 to 10 minutes? Was your child's teacher awed by your presence?

No, mine either.

I'm guessing this wasn't the case for Sasha Obama's parent teacher conference. President and Michelle Obama were at the school for about an hour and I'm sure Sasha was thankful the press wasn't allowed inside.

That was, of course, the right decision. Sasha is probably a great student, but no one wants the whole world to know their kid's business in school.

Kudos to the President for attending the conference as well because, he could have just said, you go Michelle, tell Sasha I love her.

Look Who Gets to Keep His Blackberry

trix — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 14:32:00 GMT

President Obama has won a major battle already and it has only been 4 days. He fought for it and now he gets to keep his Blackberry. Yay! for him.

Barack Obama admitted in the past that he is addicted to his Blackberry and wasn't sure what he was going to do if he became president and had to give it up. Now he doesn't have to.

He will be allowed to use his Blackberry to keep in touch with personal friends, senior staff and will be able to receive emails.

It's funny that the most powerful man in the world can't have a phone, it's like he gets all his information second hand. I wonder if he ever has to carry a wallet or man bag to hold all his stuff.

Ah, who am I kidding, he has people for that.

White House Spokesman, Robert Gibbs, said the president will limit its use, and security has been enhanced to ensure that Obama can communicate in a way that's protected. Only a small number of senior staff members and personal friends would be given his e-mail address.

Previous presidents chose not to use e-mail because it can be subpoenaed by Congress and courts and may be subject to public records laws. And Gibbs said the presumption from the White House counsel's office is that Obama's e-mails will be subject to the Presidential Records Act, which requires the National Archives to preserve presidential records.

Obama Girls Welcomed to the White House

trix — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 18:22:00 GMT

Sasha and Malia Obama were welcomed to the White House in style.

While their mom and dad spent the night going to ball after ball the staff at the White House welcomed the girls with open arms.

The staff staged movie screenings and a scavenger hunt to acquaint the girls and their friends with the history of the White House.

I'm so jealous, that would be so much fun.

The girls were also surprised when at the end of their hunt they opened the door to the Jonas brothers. They got to hang out with the brothers and chat for a while.

That sounds a lot more fun than inaugural ball after inaugural ball doesn't it?

Barack Obama and His First Five Minutes as President

trix — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 23:04:00 GMT

Today was the day that Barack Obama was inaugurated as the 44th President of the Untied States. His family was up on the stage by his side, where they have been during his entire bid for the presidency.

Today was the culmination of that dream and he didn't forget who supported him the whole time.

This is how he spent his first few minutes after being sworn in; sweet embraces, kisses, and high fives. He showed the country that his family still comes first, his job as the president doesn't overshadow his role as husband and father. This to me means, he is going to think about how the changes or policies he makes will affect his wife and children.

That's never a bad thing.

Michelle Obama- Remembers Her Roots

Michelle Obama practices what she preaches. She has access to designers that we have never heard of for herself and her daughters, yet she still chooses to use the designers she has used in the past. Michelle showed great restraint in choosing her and the girls outfits.

Malia and Sasha both wore J.Crew and let me tell you, the J. Crew company was thrilled to be chosen.

Michelle told Jay Leno that she likes J. Crew and likes to shop in their store online.

At least we know she's loyal and not easily swayed by here status or celebrity.

Michelle Obama Was Resplendent in Gold

After two months of speculation we finally saw what Michelle Obama chose to wear to the inauguration.

While her husband Barack was sworn in as the new president, she shimmered in her dress of gold by designer Isabel Toledo.

It's nice to see she isn't driven by the fashion choices of others and follows her own path. This quality is something that she will pass on to her daughters.

Ann Coulter Hates Single Moms & Compares Celeb Adoptions To Celeb Sex Tapes

Sassy Smith — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 17:10:00 GMT

Ann Coulter's new book Guilty and what she's written in it, is causing quite a stir, particularly among single mothers, and also single moms who choose to adopt children (particularly from other countries), including celebrities. She writes of the famous adopting children in foreign countries, "Apparently, busting up tribal wars to adopt foreign babies has become the latest form of Hollywood autoeroticism."

Video after the jump!

Coulter says that celebrities often adopt children for selfish reasons, such as using their new baby to promote their career - refers to celebrity adoptions as a "trend," and compares celebrity adoptions to celebrity sex tapes. She's certainly not making any friends is she?

After her recent "heated" appearance on The View, Coulter sits down with Showbiz Tonight host A.J. Hammer and discusses said appearance and her opinions on celebrities using their babies to promote themselves. I find it really hard to like this woman or to even try to dig through some of the crap she spews to see if any of what she says has any merit.

Obamas Make Their Marriage Work

trix — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 22:05:00 GMT

President-elect Obama and his wife have a genuine give-and-take marriage. They have differing opinions on a multitude of subjects which end up as conflict.

Wow, it sounds as if the new president and his wife are going to bring a real marriage to the White House.

I don't think that there has been a real marriage in the White House in a while.

Barack and Michelle didn't fall in love when they first met. They became friends first and then slowly fell in love.

We may hear about the first couple fighting in the White House, but it will just be them working out what is best for their girls.

It does sound like a real marriage, doesn't it?

An insider claims that, "Michelle worries that with Barack as President, Malia and Sasha will be thrust into the public spotlight. He, meanwhile, is concerned that Michelle spends too much dolling the girls up in fancy dresses. He doesn't want them looking like little princesses."

Barack also thought, "Public school would be a far better way to go, but Michelle is the boss. She put her foot down, and now the girls are at the private Sidwell Friends School."

Maybe she'll be a real "First Mom" and fight for our kids too.

Beyonce Abandoned her Baby

trix — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 14:33:00 GMT

Beyonce Knowles is a bad momma, she abandoned her baby five months ago. I used to have a neighbor that would adopt a puppy from someone giving them away and when they got older she would take them to the pound because they got too big.

That sounds just like what Beyonce did. She has a little dog that she loved and cherished for a little while and then left it at her record labels offices.

Who does that? She just foisted her dog onto unwilling dog watchers. The staff kept the dog for her and are waiting for her to pick it up and in the meantime they are picking up its poop, pee and taking it home on the weekend.

That is great customer service.

Guess what though? PETA is now investigating the allegations of abandonment. They are investing whether or not she really dumped her dog.

Will she get tired of her kids? Will she get too busy for them and leave them with the nanny for months at a time?

* She looked so happy with her little puppy back then*

Barack Obama Picks a Dog!

trix — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 19:31:00 GMT

While almost everyone else is talking about what Barack Obama is going to do about the economy, we here at Famecrawler are wondering if the new First dog is going to be a Labradoodle or a Portuguese Water Hound.

Both dogs are "medium-sized dog(s), and so, we’re now going to start looking at shelters to see when one of those dogs might come up.”

I am so glad that they are going to adopt a dog from a shelter. That action sets a great example for his daughters and the rest of the country. Hopefully more people will head out to their local Petsmart or shelter and adopt a pet.
