Bruno Assaults Eminem at MTV Movie Awards (VIDEO)

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 05:17:00 GMT

The big news at the MTV Movie Awards tonight wasn't who won a Golden Popcorn trophy, but what was up with that incident between Eminem and Sacha Baron Cohen? Cohen, dressed in wings and feathers as Bruno, his flamboyantly gay character, flew over the audience at the Universal Amphitheater before presenting the award for Best Male Performance. The guy's got balls, and apparently wanted to show them to Eminem.

After a short flight he landed in Eminem's lap, with his bare buttocks right in the rapper's face.

A visibly upset Emimen yelled, "Are you serious? Get the ****** off me!" to which Cohen replied, "Nice to meet you."

A short scuffle ensued as the rapper's bodyguards attempted to pull Cohen off of him, and he yelled, "Hey, don't touch me! I've already got a boyfriend!"

Once Cohen was pulled off, Eminem stormed out of the theater followed by his bodyguards.

MTV Shows

I wonder if Cohen's daughter Olive was watching the whole spectacle? While I'm sure it was disturbing to see your dad's butt mere inches away from a strange man's snarling face, maybe it was cool to see him dressed like an angel and flying over everyone's heads. Daddy's funny!

Britney NOT Lipsyncing at MTV Video Music Awards

Karl Erikson — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 20:44:00 GMT

A few days back, the world was aflutter with the word that Britney Spears, 26 and sister of new mom Jamie Lynn Spears, would be performing at this year's MTV Video Music Awards. We got caught up in the excitement, too, because - well, it's BRITNEY! *cough*

But it turns out that was a rumor. On his recent radio broadcast - and I can't believe I'm going to source this guy - Ryan Seacrest put that story to bed after talking to Britney's manager, Larry Rudolph.

Rudolph says Britney is NOT performing in the September 7th ceremony. Damn, and I was so hoping to see her lipsync with that scrumptious weave she's got going on. Good news for you Britney fans, though. Her manager says that the reason she's not performing is because she's busy in the studio working on her next album.

I. Cannot. Wait.

African Couple to Adopt Britney's Kids?

Whit Honea — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 14:51:00 GMT

According to Slate magazine a couple from the country of Malawi has completed the paperwork required to adopt Sean Preston Federline and Jayden James Federline. This follows Britney Spears losing custody of the children earlier this week.

The couple sited the tragic VMA appearance and the numerous appearances of Spears' va-jay-jay as the grounds for their concern, "In our country, a good mother does not show her business to the press. It is very bad luck.

"We could not allow innocent children to live under such horrific conditions anymore," they explained. "The Third World can no longer turn a blind eye to the tragedy affecting so many U.S. celebrity children."

When contacted Kevin Federline replied by supposedly saying, "I am the father of Sean Preston and Jayden James, who have been adopted. I am very happy because, as you can see, there is spiritual poverty in this village, and I know they will be very well looked after in Malawi. Peace out!"

Apparently the adopting couple is not content with helping just two neglected children and have hopes of creating their own coalition of rainbow families. "After learning that there are thousands of biological celebrity 'orphans' in Hollywood, it is our wish to open up our hut and help them escape a life of extreme affluence, hardship, and in many cases, Scientology." They have set up a facility in L.A. to aid other couples that have come from Afghanistan, Cambodia, China, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Mongolia, North Korea, Vietnam, and other countries that can offer children a better life.

It's funny because it's true. Well, it's not true, it's a joke, but you get the idea.

Sarah Silverman, 50, Thinks Calling Britney Spears' Kids "Adorable Mistakes" is a Term of Endearment

Whit Honea — Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:10:00 GMT

Sarah Silverman is still getting press on her VMA jokes at Britney's expense. Namely the jokes about the boys.

"The joke that everyone was upset about — me calling the kids `adorable mistakes' — was the most innocuous joke," Silverman told Us Weekly. She can't figure out what all the hub-bub is about, but she'll talk about it to anyone with a microphone.

"It never occurred to me that would be deemed hurtful or over the line. I don't want to get into feuds with girls half my age. I'm in it to be funny and not for the drama. It's embarrassing."

I've got to say, for fifty Sarah is looking pretty good.

Is it just me or have the 15-minutes on this thing passed already?

BTW, this isn't Sarah's first run at making fun of the tragic queens of Hollywood. She took some stabs at Paris Hilton as well, back before she went to jail. This may not be safe for work if they frown on you talking openly about penises.

There is a God: Britney Spears Says No to Emmy Appearance

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 15 Sep 2007 03:15:00 GMT

I think we can agree that one humiliating, brutal awards-show event is enough for anyone's lifetime. And I'm not just talking about Tommy Lee getting bitch-slapped by Kid Rock at the VMAs. In a rare show of wisdom and self-preservation, Britney Spears has decided not to appear on this Sunday's Emmy telecast. It was rumored that Spears would appear on the show to "apologize for the VMAs" but US Magazine is reporting that Spears' camp has ended talks with Emmy producers. Whew.

Thankfully somebody put a stop to this. Perhaps it was divine intervention, enlightening career advice or maybe it was the fact that sons Sean and Jayden were petitioning to have their names changed to Jolie-Pitt.

It Ain't Hard Out There For a Pimp: Kevin Federline Gets Britney's Money

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 20:30:00 GMT

What could be more painful than bombing on the VMAs? How about having to give your slacker ex-husband $20,000 every month until he either dies or gets married?

Britney Spears will have to do just that, as it's being revealed in a court document that was signed by a judge today. This differs from their original prenup, which cut off K-Fed's $20k spousal support after November 2007. That would have meant only two more months for the ex Mr. Spears to have his big hairy hand in Britney's wide-open cookie jar. I mean this metaphorically, of course.

Unfortunately this means that there'll be no end to the photos of Federline partying on Spears' dime - endless shots of him getting tanked at Tao and escorting scores of trashy blondes out of the back door of Hyde. Unless of course he gets married or dies. I think I hear Britney's shotgun getting cocked now.

Britney Spears, the Emmys and the Public Apology

Whit Honea — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 17:01:00 GMT

It is being reported that the people behind the Emmys are in talks with the Britney Spears camp about possibly adding another nail to her coffin.

A source told Us Weekly that "the idea is to have her come on and apologize for the VMAs. She's weighing the offer."

Really? Why the hell would she put herself in that position? The minute she opens her mouth and the crazy falls out she'll just be another week of fodder for us at FameCrawler. Nobody wants that, not even us.

If she wants to apologize to whoever still cares, that's fine, but the Emmys is not the place. Put out a statement. Hold a press conference. Hire a skywriter. Whatever. The Emmys are a forum to honor people not embarrass them.

All of a sudden that Extra! gig is looking pretty good.

Lil' Mama: Is She Trying to Get Adopted?

Whit Honea — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 15:24:00 GMT

Everybody needs an angle. Rapper Lil' Mama, real name Niatia Kirkland, is going this route. Really. She was the first one on the red carpet and she just stood there, waiting for Brangelina or Madonna to swoop in and make her jewels real.

I know that babies are the thing in Hollywood now, but most people pacify themselves with an actual baby, not a pacifier. Gimmicks and shticks aren't new to celebrity, nor, sadly, are blinged out binkies (hey, did she buy that from Kiddy Diddy?), but to call yourself Lil' Mama and walk the red carpet dressed as a baby? That's desperate.

I'm not changing that diaper.

Remember Britney, Bitches?

Whit Honea — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 02:48:00 GMT

Um, okay. Britney Spears had her comeback, can we write her off now?

(more pics & video)

Actually, her show was great, in a retro MTV sort of way. I haven't seen lip-syncing and "dancing" that bad since 1988. Don't take my word for it (although you should), watch it for yourself, if you can stomach it. If you squint with one eye it actually looks like she cares. If you close both eyes it looks like she's trying.

I feel bad for the audience. The other artists have been bending over backwards trying to show public support for Britney, and then they had to sit there with that awkward look on their collective face, wondering when the hell Criss Angel was going to saw her in half.

It would have to be a pretty big saw.

Britney Spears at the VMAs: Finally, Sean and Jayden Get To See What Mommy Does For a Living

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 00:50:00 GMT

Unless you've been living under a rock you know by now that Britney Spears is set to open the MTV Video Music Awards tonight in Vegas. Not that Kanye West gives a crap. No matter - Britney's been hanging out with new BFF Diddy. Talk about being a bad influence! I'm talking about Britney, not Diddy.

I'm going to break rank here and actually wish Britney well tonight. While sons Sean and Jayden are knocking back Cokes and watching the show with their nannies, I hope Britney gets up on stage with a decent weave, keeps her clothes on and lip-synchs her heart out. At least her kids will know that mommy gets paid for something other than going out for coffee and flashing her muffin.

Paris Hilton Reveals Pregnancy

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 09 Sep 2007 21:05:00 GMT

Fortunately for us, it wasn't her own. Hilton spilled the beans on (former) friend Christina Aguilera's not-well-kept secret on Saturday night at a Las Vegas party. Aguilera, who was hosting the party at LAX Nightclub in the Luxor, sat stunned as Hilton told the packed crowd, "Congratulations to the most beautiful pregnant woman in the world. You're gorgeous," Yet one more reason not to give Paris Hilton your PIN number.

Aguilera, who has never formally announced her pregnancy, sank her head into husband Jordan Bratman's shoulder when Hilton made the announcement but recovered quickly to congratulatory applause from the crowd. There's been no word from Aguilera, although I imagine she's busy spreading super glue on the seat of Paris' Bentley and filling her shampoo bottles with Nair.
