Easter Memories: Denise Richards and the Girls (and Grandpa)

Whit Honea — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 22:36:00 GMT

Sam and Lola got to spend part of Easter Sunday in the park with their mom Denise and their grandpa.

The only thing better than spending Easter with a bunny is a grandparent. This is a well-known fact.

Anna Nicole Smith's Father Blames Howard Stern

Whit Honea — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 19:57:00 GMT

Donald Hogan has been fairly quiet since losing the very public custody battle for his granddaughter Dannielynn, but now Anna Nicole Smith's father is speaking to E! News and he is blaming Howard K. Stern for his daughter's death.

Hogan says, "I blame him totally for her death... Nobody put a gun to her head, but somebody sure brought a lot of drugs home and, instead of bringing drugs to someone, even if she had a fit about it, I'd tell her to tell someone else to get it for you."

Hogan, who separated from Virgie Arthur, Smith's mother, when Anna was 9-months-old, has suggested that he may team with Arthur in a wrongful death suit against Stern.

Said Hogan, "I would urge Virgie also to think about this—this wrongful death. And personally, I don't care if we get a dime out of it. Not one dime."

Sarah Silverman: The Great Schlep Video

Whit Honea — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 22:51:00 GMT

Sarah Silverman used to grace these pages a bit more when she was the subject of pregnancy speculation by one Jimmy Kimmel (or Matt Damon). Then she and Kimmel broke-up and the speculation ended. Then she and Damon stopped f*@%ing, and Silverman rode off into the FameCrawler sunset. Or so we thought.

She has a new video and it doesn't involve her being a celebrity parent. It involves her being a celebrity grandkid. Sure, we'll roll with it (because it's funny).

The video is very ~~liberal~~ progressive and will probably offend someone, which I'm sure will make Silverman quite happy. Every time she pisses someone off she gets a dollar. That's a good deal, especially for her.

Here's Sarah Silverman and The Great Schlep Video (NSFWish):

Barack Obama Assassination???

Sassy Smith — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 04:38:00 GMT

A breaking story - a Denver television station is claiming that police my have stopped an assassination plot against Barack Obama! The suspects may be part of a white supremacy group!

From TMZ:

KUSA-TV claims three men are in custody after a routine traffic stop in Aurora (near Denver) turned up two rifles, high-powered scopes, ammo and meth. The man in the car led authorities to a hotel where another suspect jumped out of a fourth floor window in an attempt to escape.

A third guy was busted at another hotel but the info on him is sketchy.

The arrests went down yesterday. The TV station says sources said "Two of the men had tattoos and jewelry popular with white supremacists."

The mugshot inset in the photo is of one of the suspects, Tharin Gartrell.

We'll keep you posted!

Many celebrities, who support Barack Obama, teamed with Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) and took part in making an inspirational video for change, titled "American Prayer".

Stars who took part are, Pam Anderson, Macy Gray, Cindy Lauper, Forest Whitaker, Joan Baez, Jason Alexander, Whoopi Goldberg, just to name a few.

Video after the jump!

The inspiring anthem pays tribute to everyday families and people who are supporting Obama's 'platform of change.'

The Obama Text: Barack is My Booty Call

Whit Honea — Sat, 23 Aug 2008 15:16:00 GMT

Barack Obama sent out a text message and/or email to an elite few (or thousands) of people at a little before 5a.m. (ET) to officially announce his pick for his running mate before going to the media. That's 2 in the morning on the left coast.

That's right, just as I was stumbling out of the bar with a soiled liver and a loin full of hope I got beeped. That is perfect booty call timing. Turns out I wasn't his choice.

Actually, I was in bed. I'm a family man, you know. Barack Obama is also a family man and so is his pick Joe Biden (as we told you hours before the big news stations dared to run with it). Between Obama's young daughters and Biden's 5 grandchildren the South Lawn may soon be sporting some swings and one of those cool monkey bar things that looks like a dome. Those are awesome.

Here's the text officially announcing JoBama:

Whit --

I have some important news that I want to make official.

I've chosen Joe Biden to be my running mate.

Joe and I will appear for the first time as running mates this afternoon in Springfield, Illinois -- the same place this campaign began more than 19 months ago.

I'm excited about hitting the campaign trail with Joe, but the two of us can't do this alone. We need your help to keep building this movement for change.

Please let Joe know that you're glad he's part of our team. Share your personal welcome note and we'll make sure he gets it:

http://my.barackobama.com/welcomejoe

Thanks for your support,

Barack

P.S. -- Make sure to turn on your TV at 2:00 p.m. Central Time to join us or watch online at http://www.BarackObama.com.

See, Barack and I are close like that.

Obama Names Biden Vice President!

Whit Honea — Sat, 23 Aug 2008 01:07:00 GMT

Updated: This is now official! Yeah, you heard it here first!

Barack Obama's followers (and detractors) are filling internets, inboxes and cellphones with speculation that the presidential candidate has picked a running mate.

It is believed that Senator Joe Biden of Delaware will be the Vice Presidential Candidate on the 2008 Democratic ticket.

Some news agencies are already running the story, although no official word is expected until early Saturday morning.

Biden had 3 grown children and five grandchildren. He lost his first wife and a child in a car accident in 1972.

He has a reputation for speaking his mind and having a quick tongue. One of his most popular quotes was in regard to then-Republican candidate and frontrunner Rudy Giuliani "There's only three things he mentions in a sentence: a noun, and a verb and 9/11."

We'll keep you posted.

UPDATED: Secret Service on their way to Biden's house.
