Blink-182: Getting the Band Back Together?

Whit Honea — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 22:27:00 GMT

Following the tragedy that drummer and proud daddy Travis Barker recently survived there is a new hope for fans of Blink-182.

Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker and Tom Delonge have been talking and hanging out again.

In a recent blog entry Hoppus says, "In the midst of everything else that has happened lately, Tom, Travis and I have all spoken together. First through a number of phone calls, and then a couple of weeks ago we all hung out for a few hours."

Does this mean that Blink-182 will be getting back together?

"None of us know. We haven't talked about it at all...The events of the past two months supersede everything that happened before. Life is too short."

Hey, it's a start.

DJ AM- Calls Mom, Nicole Richie Reacts To Plane Crash

trix — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 21:15:00 GMT

DJ AM (Adam Goldstein) was in a fatal plane crash last night and "was completely terrified and traumatized" from the experience. The medical staff said that he was lucky to be alive.

He was able to call his mom from the ambulance and tell her what happened. Oh my god, could you imagine getting that phone call, how terrifying.

"DJ AM suffered severe burns to his face. He is currently in a doctor-induced coma so he can "undergo skin grafts in an attempt to repair some of the extensive burn damage."

DJ AM's former fiancee, "Nicole Richie, 'is in shock, she wishes only the best for Adam and hopes he recovers from this, she's horribly upset about the people who died.'"

Joel Madden, Nicole's current partner and father of Harlow, is friends with Travis Barker, who was injured in the plane crash as well, feels terrible and hopes they recover.

Updated: Travis Barker and DJ AM in Plane Crash

Whit Honea — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 18:11:00 GMT

Travis Barker and DJ AM were the only two survivors from a plane crash in Columbia, South Carolina. They are in critical condition.

Barker and Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein were leaving Columbia after playing a large outdoor concert Saturday night. According to CNN, "the Learjet 60 crashed on takeoff at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport at 11:53 p.m." It was headed to Van Nuys, California.

From CNN:

"They overran the end of runway 11. They impacted the antenna array and a number of lights at the end of the runway. They went through the perimeter fence and across the roadway here," said NTSB spokeswoman Debbie Hersman, briefing reporters on Saturday. "There was a significant post-crash fire."

William Owens told WIS-TV he was driving down Highway 302 when he said he saw a fireball go across the road.

"I didn't know what I had seen -- it was maybe 800 feet in front of me, but as I approached it closer though, I made out a fire. By then I was able to see the tail of the jet and I recognized it as a jet," Owens said.

Owens told the station he tried to get to the wreckage.

"It's in flames and the fuel is running across the road and I had to cross the fuel to get to the two guys that seemed to have been dumped on the highway," Owens said.

Owens told WIS-TV the two men were running around and pulling off clothing to put out the flames. He said he asked them if anyone else was on board the plane and they said four people were with them.

"We turned to the jet to try and see if there was anything we could do, but immediately, there was nothing anyone could do," Owens said.

The four other people on the plane were pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, co-pilot James Bland, 52, Chris Baker, 29, and Charles Still, 25, all from California.

Travis Barker has been the subject of various rumors over the past couple of years regarding his alleged death. He and Goldstein are listed in critical condition with severe burns.

Travis Barker has two children.

Shanna Moakler Supports Ex-Nanny In Charges Against Rob Lowe

HerBadMother — Mon, 05 May 2008 14:53:00 GMT

So, that nanny who has charged Rob Lowe and his wife with being big ol' perverts? No, not the first one. The second one. Yeah, that one. Well, she used to nanny for Shanna Moakler and Travis Barker, and Shanna Moakler, for one, is standing right by her.

From People.com:

"I've been friends with Laura for the past ten years – before she was my nanny – and I completely stand by her," Moakler told PEOPLE exclusively.

A source added that Boyce appeared in at least one episode of Meet the Barkers, the MTV show about the unconventional family life of Moakler, a former Playboy centerfold, and her now ex-husband Travis Barker.

Which, you know - it's tempting to disregard the character reference of a former-Playboy-model-turned-reality-TV-star, but why should it? I mean, is Moakler's word any less trustworthy than Rob 'Oh Hai I Videotaped Young Girls Having Sex With Me 4 Fun' Lowe? Really?

Julia Roberts Personality Is Not So Pretty?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 20 Nov 2007 12:03:00 GMT

Pretty ~~big hypocrite~~ Woman star, Julia Roberts, was seen getting into her SUV, that was parked in a handicap zone, while out shopping with her husband, Danny Moder. Let's break this down shall we and point out the things wrong with this situation.

First, Pretty Woman is my all time favourite movie. That has nothing to do with this story, but I'm just telling you because I felt like it and I'm ~~probably going to get over it~~ heartbroken that Julia Roberts could be so, so, not nice.

Second, Julia has said in a new interview in the December issue of Variety Magazine, that she "has a desire to be an organic supermom who grows and makes all of her own food and does as many crafts as she can fit into a day with as little impact on the environment as possible." Okay, so you're being that "save the environment supermom" by driving to the grocery store in your gas guzzling SUV and then parking in a spot reserved for people who are HANDICAPPED in some way (visible or otherwise)? Tsk tsk. I'm sorry, there is no excuse for parking in a handicap spot, if you are not disabled in some capicity. Personally, I don't care if people want to drive a giant, gas pig of a vehicle but sorry, you can't be all preachy about how you want to save the environment and then do things that make you a big ol' hypocrite. Pick one.

The Enquirer ran a story about Salma Hayek, when she was super pregnant, who chose to park quite a distance away from her destination at a studio lot, instead of using a handicapped spot, that she could have techincally taken. Says alot now doesn't it? If Salma and her ~~huge boobs~~ pregnant belly could walk to her destination, then you certainly could have Ms."I'm going to make my own crafts". Shame on you Julia Roberts, shame on you.

Wit Yo Bad Self-Well Actually With A Woman:Timbaland To Be A Daddy!

Sassy Smith — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 18:32:00 GMT

Hip Hop Big Wig Do'er of All, Timbaland, is going to be a proud papa!

Timbaland, 36, (who's real name is Timothy Z. Mosley) is reportedly expecting a baby girl with a woman who works for, Mosley Music Group, which is his music label. The baby is expected sometime at the end of this month, but no other details have been released.

Sources say, "They are not a couple but Timbaland has promised to be involved in the child's upbringing. He's very excited about the baby and has been very supportive to the mother." Reps for Timbaland have refused to comment.

The music mogul is currently working on Madonna's new album, which is slated for a 2008 release. Hopefully he can help Madge get an album out that's worth listening to! Did I say that out loud? Yes, yes, I did.

Britney's Mom Sleeping With Kevin Federline?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 19:02:00 GMT

Apparently Britney thinks so.

Spears has accused her mother, Lynne, of sleeping with Kevin Federline in a bid to get close to her grandchildren. Um ew. Sorry, I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Sources say that Britney said to her mother, "I suppose you're sleeping with Kevin now as well?" Brit is reportedly fuming that her mother and K'Fed have become close. I'm crossing my fingers that grandma doesn't have to do the nasty with Federline to be able to see her grandbabies. Personally, I think it's just a case of Spears going off the deep end and putting blame on everyone else for her lack of parenting skills.

...with their grandmother Federline, and I must say they are cute kids. It's nice to see that they do get some stability in their lives and can have some "normal" interactions with family instead of sitting, strapped in a car seat, being blinded by flashing bulbs.

The Unveiling Of Julia Robert's Son!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 19:04:00 GMT

Julia Roberts will be on Oprah Monday and she will be "unveiling" her newest son, 5 month old, Henry Daniel Moder. I'm not sure I'd refer to it as unveiling my child, like he's some sort of art piece, but whatever floats her Pretty Woman boat.

Roberts said to Winfrey on the taping of the show, "There's been a lot of curiosity. There's not been a picture of him. I thought I would just show everybody." Julia is joining Tom Hanks to promote their new movie, Charlie Wilson's War.

Weekly World News: Travis Barker Fakes Death, Then Undergoes Sex Change!

HerBadMother — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 16:33:00 GMT

The last few days in the world of Internet gossip have been pretty crazy. Sure, there are always crazy stories rolling around - Miley Cyrus pregnant? Who could get past Billy Ray and his shot-gun to knock her up? - but this week's stories took the cake. Travis Barker dead! Travis Barker resurrected! Travis Barker zombie seen shopping in Los Angeles!

(Take those stories together with those concerning Paris Hilton's plans to host AA meetings for drunkard elephants and Brangelina's plans to buy Ethiopa and you pretty much had a perfect storm of extreme gossip.)

Which got me thinking: what else might we have seen in the headlines this week, if the denizens of MySpace ran Associated Press?

1) Clay Aiken Marries Jake Gyllenhaal In Secret Ceremony (Reese Witherspoon Is Flower Girl!).

2) Britney Spears Drives Car Into Crowd Of Writer's Guild Strikers With Kids In Back Seat: Asks Tina Fey To Get Her A Frappuccino

3) Heidi Klum Has Back Fat!

4) FDA Says That A Pack A Day Is Good For Baby: Nicole Richie Rejoices!

5) Angelina Jolie: "I'm Really A Man (But Brad Still Loves My Ass!)"

6) Tom Cruise Wants Another Baby: Plans to Impregnate Self And Carry To Term (Katie Smiles And Nods!)

You think I make this shit up? At least one of these stories is confirmably true. And we still don't know if Travis is dead or alive, so I advise suspension of disbelief on all fronts until further notice.

Jessica Alba Pregnant?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 13:04:00 GMT

The normally svelte looking Jessica Alba didn't look as such at the premiere of her new movie Awake.

Alba had some kind of lace contraption on, which, yes, was a dress, but a sort of hideous mess of gathered material. I suppose it could be the way the lace is all puckered at the front of her stomach that is making her "appear" pregnant but perhaps she's actually trying to hide a "baby bump." Plus, the fact that Jessica is reunited with her long time beau, Cash Warren, could mean she's with child. 'Cause I bet their having, you know, sex. And, and, and she looks "glowy". Is glowy a word? Yes, of course it is! Look it up in the "pregnant" dictionary of perfectly acceptable words to use when describing a woman a with baby in her womb. Just a little FYI..."fat" is never acceptable when talking to a preggo lady.

Dead Or Alive? Travis Barker Seen Shopping Yesterday

Sassy Smith — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 22:05:00 GMT

For a dead guy, he looks pretty good right?

The rumour was that Travis Barker died on November 13th, but he was seen shopping on Thursday, November 15th. I'm gonna go with, he's probably still alive. Although, as of yet, there's been no statement from Travis himself, although his wife, Shanna Moakler has given a statement on her Myspace. Maybe he's busy coming back from the dead?

The Washington Post Declares: Travis Barker is NOT Dead

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 19:55:00 GMT

**UPDATE: Whew - Travis Barker is ALIVE! But we're not so sure about Gene Simmons...

So, who are you going to believe, a billion unemployed MySpace crawlers or a respected newspaper run by a bunch of old people? Express, an online publication of The Washington Post is reporting that they have word from Dennis Dennehy, a spokesman for Barker's record company Interscope Records, regarding the rumors that Barker was found dead in his garage. And the statement? "Not true."

Also, Express suggests a visit to Shanna Moakler's MySpace page, which seems to debunk the rumors about her husband's demise.

Although once again, who believes MySpace? And, has anyone heard from Travis Barker?

Travis Barker Dead: The Hoax

Whit Honea — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 15:25:00 GMT

The word is everywhere, Travis Barker of the Transplants, +44, Blink 182 and "Meet the Barkers" fame was apparently found dead in his garage. Yet the internet holds no official statements or acknowledgments- either way.

While I feel that this is most likely a hoax, where are the statements from Barker? I understand that a celebrity can't go around and comment on every rumor that starts about them, but one that has this much fever should be acknowledged. It's like Paul McCartney all over again*. He shouldn't just ignore it and stay out of view. Who is he- Castro**?

In fact, while most sites tend to agree that this is not true, only one actually states it, that being the Travis Barker Wikipedia page. Sure, that's more official than... well, nothing. Anyone can add to a wiki.

So where is Barker? Is he going to let his fans know that he is okay or just let it escalate to the heights of unforgettable urban legend. If the latter is true there must be a CD or DVD tie-in coming. The press is fantastic.

UPDATED: It's not true!!

*Paul McCartney was rumored dead back in the day. The Beatles had some fun with it.

**Castro, the leader of Cuba has been rumored dead recently. Official statements came from Cuba that he was well, but they did not provide any proof that the ailing dictator still lived.

***Sorry, I bought a ton of these *'s because of the Bonds thing. I'm going to be rich!

Is Travis Barker Dead?

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 06:18:00 GMT

**UPDATE: The Washington Post says Travis Barker is NOT dead.

**HOWEVER: Sources are saying that this guy is dead.

According to the buzz on the internet in the last few hours, Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker was found dead in his garage. Barker and his wife Shanna Moakler, with whom he has split and reconciled several times over the last few years, have two children Landon, 4, and Alabama, almost 2. One of the postings quotes Moakler as saying "Everyone in the world has someone special who has died in their life. Maybe it hasnt happened yet but please pray for Travis and my family."

Is it true?
