Hey, Milo: Your Mama Does Dance and Your Daddy Does Rock and Roll

Whit Honea — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 22:01:00 GMT

Liv Tyler's son Milo has a dad that may or may not be the new lead singer for Velevet Revolver and a grandpa that is about as Rock God as any grandpa could ever be.

He may soon be throwing Mom in to the same conversation. Liv Tyler is giving serious thought to pursuing her dream of singing on stage.

"I would love to do a musical - like on Broadway. That's like the dream of my whole life. I always wanted to be a singer. Or get to sing. I haven't been able to do that, and I would love to do that."

I've had similar dreams, but like a painful kidney stone it passed. Stupid reality.

This is Andrea Echeverri of the band Aterciopelados, and that is her pregnant belly. You wont see Andrea hitting the stage looking like Mama Cass in sequins (hi, JLo!).

Rock on, Andrea.

Tim McGraw and the Wife Beaters

Whit Honea — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 20:02:00 GMT

Dear Josh Homme, this is how you kick someone out of a concert.

Tim McGraw was performing on stage last night when he noticed some big, probably drunk, cowboy harassing a lady in the audience and had him pulled onstage before being kicked out. Actually, McGraw pulled him on stage and came pretty close to punching the idiot before returning to the microphone and going on with business as usual. That's professional, Holmes, er, Homme.

Just goes to show you that Tim McGraw is a classy guy, and while he won't stand still for a wife beater, he sure can wear the hell out of one.

Queens Of The Stone Age Josh Homme Needs To Take a Chill Pill

Karen — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 12:38:00 GMT

Daddy to 2 year old Camille Harley Homme, lead singer Josh Homme went ballistic on a drunk kid at a concert at the Norwegian Wood festival. Seems Drunk Kid threw something at Josh, and well, a long tirade of strong words ending with the kids getting the boot was the result. Hey you kids, don't throw things! (Sounds like a lesson for toddlers!)

Video is NSFW/kids - STRONG LANGUAGE.

Did the paps build treehouses in her trees? Enjoy!

If Only Britney Could Fly

Karen — Fri, 30 May 2008 19:33:00 GMT

Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky

It had the one long horn, one big eye

I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"

It looks like a purple eater to me

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater

(One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)

A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater

Sure looks strange to me (One eye?)

Aw c'mon, that's better than speculation that she is pregnant again, isn't it? YAWN.

Britney Spears in Grease

Karen — Thu, 29 May 2008 22:33:00 GMT

Britney Spears has been tipped for the role of Sandy in Grease.

Some crazy musical producer in London like her great acting on How I Met Your Mother. Great acting? Um, okay. Whatever. You know, I'm glad she's getting well but she is no actress. Please.

A source tells British newspaper Metro, "The producers were bouncing around the idea of casting Britney in the role of Sandy.

"They're recasting the roles in July and they thought that Britney looked like a Sandy. She would be terrific."

Yup I think so too. And this is why:

Perfect.

Minnie Driver Weighs Her Boobs

Whit Honea — Wed, 28 May 2008 22:21:00 GMT

According to Minnie Driver, the best part about being pregnant is getting a "rack and a half."

She even went so far as to weigh her growing assets on a food scale, much to the delight of Graham Norton, Jimmy Carr and me.

John Travolta: Leavin' On A Gay Plane?

HerBadMother — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 22:45:00 GMT

Yep. That would be a full-on, lip-to-lip kiss. Which, you know, is not gay at all. It's old news, anyways - or would be if he hadn't been just a tad over the top in his enthusiasm for The Little Mermaid recently. Which, again, not gay at all.

I don't care, really, if John Travolta is gay or not. If he loves men, more power to him. It's the whole holier-than-thou Scientologist family-man, wife-as-beard thing that gets me. Which, if he is gay, he probably learned those bearding strategies from Tom Cruise, but whatever. Be gay, be in the closet, be whatever - just don't hide behind other people.

Or airplanes. Because, you know: telephoto lenses.

John Travolta and The Little Mermaid

Whit Honea — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 19:50:00 GMT

John Travolta put on his Sunday best wig (the thing on his head, the Sunday best beard holding his hand is wife Kelly Preston) and took birthday girl Ella to 46th Street for Disney's The Little Mermaid. Sure beats a banded, bulbous snarfblatt. Those get very boring.

Apparently Mr. Travolta loved the show so much that he was singing along to every song. This is where other celebrity sites mock him, but not me. In fact, I so love The Little Mermaid that I almost feel bad for the beard joke. As a matter of fact I have a flyer right here on my bar, er, desk for a sing-a-long showing of the film at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. I want to be part of that world.

After the show the Travoltas and 26 of Ella's dearest friends went backstage for photos with the cast and some flipper envy. Sources say that John was really enjoying himself and touching all of the costumes.

No sources said that he was singing "Look at this stuff, isn't it neat? Wouldn't ya think my collection's complete? Wouldn't you think I'm the girl- girl who has everything? Look at this trove, treasures untold. How many wonders can one cavern hold? Looking around you'd think, sure, she's got everything. I've got gadgets and gizmos aplenty. I have whoozits and whatzis galore. You want thingamabobs? I've got twenty, but who cares? No big deal. I want more," but I like to think that he was.

Jennifer Garner and Violet Weather the Storm

Whit Honea — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 18:36:00 GMT

The snow is snowing, the wind is blowing
But she can weather the storm!
What does she care how much it may storm?
She's got her love to keep her warm.

Sorry, Irving Berlin, I couldn't help it. I look at this picture of Jennifer Garner and Violet braving the winter of a New York December and the tune pops in my head. Here, let Frank put it in yours:

Your Daily Jennifer and Violet Fix

Whit Honea — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 19:23:00 GMT

I know. They're so sweet it makes your teeth hurt.

Jennifer Garner and Violet bundled up and hit the streets of New York City.

Violet looks like a little warm lion.

Yes, I was disgustingly nice in this post, even for my favorite girls. I don't feel well, sorry.

Katie Holmes Has a Tiny Shadow Dancer

Whit Honea — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 18:38:00 GMT

Where, oh where, oh where is shadow?

Katie Holmes waited patiently for Wendy to sew Tom's shadow back on so he could thrill the crowd at the Bambi awards.

I think Tom should have walked on stage and declared that man has entered the forest. I'm sure by the time he went on the audience was already sick of refrences to Thumper.

Kingston Rossdale Ain't no Holla Back Boy

Gwen Stefani brought her son Kingston on stage. The kid is a natural. Don't worry, the video is much better!

My Garner is on Broadway or Roxanne, You Don't Have to Turn on the Spotlight

Whit Honea — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 21:03:00 GMT

Hey Jennifer Garner, you just opened on in Cyrano de Bergerac on Broadway! What are you going to do now?

"I'm ready for a glass of wine! I'm just happy that I stayed on my feet and said everything that I was suppose to say."

Um, Jenn, that's not the line. Stupid writer's strike.

Ben Affleck added his review of the nights performance, "She did fine! It was terrific, and I had a lot of fun." Fine? Is that the most ringing endorsement he could muster? I bet Affleck slept through the damn thing.

Luckily for Garner the real reviews have been a bit more exciting. Good for her (and Kevin Kline!).
