Kate Gosselin's Hairdo - Does It Matter?

trix — Sat, 16 May 2009 17:02:00 GMT

If it's not bad enough that Kate Gosselin is all over the media for her relationship problems, now we have to hear about her hairdo.

Do you like it? Is it your next do?

I don't, but then I've had the same hairstyle for years, so my opinion doesn't really count.

Celebrity hairstylists are weighing in on the subject and it's not pretty.

Their thoughts: "The style seems almost punk 1980s, which might be cool if it was 1985 and she wasn't a mother of eight. The back is way too short. It is almost a men's clipper cut."

"The only aspect of this look that works are her side bangs. But her smooth, long bangs just do not match with the short, spiky back."

I think the worst comments of them all were calling the look, the modernized version of the mullet -- business in the front, party in the back," and the "It won't take long to style. Hold your super long bangs in your hand, and put the rest of your hair in a salad shooter."

What do you think, do you care? Maybe Jon just really hates her hair and all that anger and rage is boiling up inside and he just couldn't take it anymore.

Denis Leary to Jenny McCarthy: Bring It

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 20:05:00 GMT

Looks like the feud between Denis Leary and Jenny McCarthy isn't quite over yet. As you may remember, McCarthy called Leary "obviously stupid" for making jokes about autism in his book Why We Suck: A Feel-Good Guide to Staying Fat, Loud, Lazy and Stupid. Well it appears Leary may have feelings after all, and is swinging his little arms back at McCarthy.

"I can guarantee you that Jenny McCarthy did not read the book and at this point I refuse to continue to be the punching bag for autism because I’m not even going to stand here on my own defense. I don’t think it’s number four on the New York best sellers because people want to laugh at somebody who is making fun of autistic kids."

"My motivation, which I’ve said a million times, for writing the chapter was because I have friends who have autistic children and I think it’s ridiculous that there’s people out there who are bad parents and are trying to solve the bad behavior of their spoiled brat children by getting a low-level diagnosis. It’s true, if people don’t want to believe it that’s fine, but that’s what I was writing about."

Leary's book was quoted as saying people diagnosed with autism are “stupid. Or lazy. Or both.” McCarthy, who has said that her six-year-old son Evan was recently cured of autism, shot back, "First of all, let me tell you, the autism community has received probably 10,000 emails [saying] ‘Go kill him!’ ‘Go yell at him. [But] it’s so hard to even get up enough juice in me or energy in me to even try to fight someone that is obviously stupid.”

Leary may learn the hard way that hell hath no fury like an ex-Playmate mom protecting her child against the barbs of a B-list actor. Time to get up your juice and take out that can of whoop-ass, Jenny.

Denis Leary: Autism Means Your Kid Is Stupid and Lazy

Sassy Smith — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 16:10:00 GMT

Comedian (I say that term loosely) Denis Leary has written a new book titled Why We Suck: A Feel-Good Guide to Staying Fat, Loud, Lazy and Stupid. Sounds like a good read. I'm sure he's going to get some fan mail because of it, and by fan mail, I mean hate mail. Why? In his book, he says that children diagnosed with autism, are in fact not autistic - it actually means they're stupid and/or lazy. Oh boy.

This is what Leary wrote:

"There is a huge boom in autism right now because inattentive mothers and competitive dads want an explanation for why their dumb-ass kids can't compete academically, so they throw money into the happy laps of shrinks.... to get back diagnoses that help explain away the deficiencies of their junior morons. I don't give a [bleep] what these crackerjack whack jobs tell you - yer kid is NOT autistic. He's just stupid. Or lazy. Or both."

The Autism Society of America wrote in response:

"For Mr. Leary to suggest that families or doctors conspire to falsely diagnose autism is ridiculous... [His] remarks reflect the same misconceptions of autism being caused by bad or unemotional parenting that were held over 50 years ago."

You know, it takes a lot to offend me. I can take harsh humor, black comedy, and sarcasm with the best of them, but I'm sorry, is that snippet from his book, supposed to be funny? Is that the best he can come up with? That's witty?

As a mother of a special needs child (who, without going into a ten page explanation of his diagnosis, does display characteristics associated with the autism spectrum), I find Denis Leary's comments offensive. I'm not an inattentive, bad mother who shoved her kid at a shrink because I thought he was too stupid to join in with the other children, or whatever the hell it is Leary's trying to say. It's narrow-minded individuals such as Leary who make it hard for us parents of children with special challenges to get the help we need sometimes, and to make others realize, that what we live is real and not something we caused by being "inattentive," or "competitve."

I'm sure Mr. Leary's book will be a big seller, seeing as the 51-year-old is about as relevant as his washed-up comedy is.

Bite me Denis Leary.

SAG Awards: Angelina Jolie Looking Pregnant on the Red Carpet

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 02:35:00 GMT

The Screen Actors Guild Awards, the first star-studded awards show of the season, are now underway. But who can concentrate on the show when we're all trying to figure out if Angelina Jolie is knocked-up? The actress walked the red carpet at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles in a loose, flowing dress fueling speculation that she's pregnant.

Of course, no one's considered the possibility that maybe she just likes loose, flowing dresses or maybe just wanted to be comfortable after she hits the after-show buffet line and scarfs down all those hors d'oeuvres. I'd wear a big dress too, if I knew there was a room full of cheese balls and shish kebabs waiting for me.

Jolie is nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Marianne Pearl in A Mighty Heart. If she wins maybe she'll announce her pregnancy. Probably not.
