Halle Berry Got Her Hair Did

trix — Sun, 24 May 2009 14:32:00 GMT

Halle Berry cut off all of her hair!

She looks lovely! As a mom of a toddler I'm sure she'll find it very easy to manage, and no more bad hair days in the tabloids for her.

I wonder if she saw a couple of those pictures and cried about how mean the press were being.

I seriously doubt it. My only question is, did Nahla recognize her? I cut my hair short when my oldest son was little and it took him a moment to recognize me. I colored mine too though, so it could have just been that.

Halle Berry- Is She or Isn't She?

trix — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 21:39:00 GMT

Oh Halle, the trips to the fertility clinic must be working or this is a picture of when you were pregnant with Nahla. I truly hope that you are pregnant , because I know you want to be.

Halle and her partner Gabriel Aubry are reportedly trying to get pregnant to give their darling Nahla a sibling.

Halle and Gabriel Visit the Fertility Clinic?

trix — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 12:31:00 GMT

Halle Berry and her honey Gabriel Aubry visited the Brentwood Medical Plaza last week.

Are they trying to get pregnant again? I know they both want Nahla to have a sibling, so maybe they are taking the next step.

Halle is 42 years old and isn't taking any chances. If she wants to get pregnant, she's going to do whatever necessary to acheive that goal.

Halle Berry Sans Make-up

trix — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 19:34:00 GMT

Halle Berry is a very brave woman. She ventured out the house with her mom, without makeup. She still looks fantastic though.

Halle knows that there are paparazzi following her every move, but she didn't care. She went apartment hunting with her mom. Though, an apartment in the 1.2 million dollar range sounds like a rather nice home doesn't it.

Did you hear about her narrowly averted disaster in Washington? “Halle was on her way to the ball, but she was looking lost and confused in the crowd of people,” a source told Page Six. “She stepped on to the escalator and the long train of her dress got caught, causing a scene of panic. She began frantically screaming and security had to hit the emergency brake.”

Um,scary. I have a healthy fear of escalators, do you?

Tobey Maguire's Ball

Whit Honea — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 18:10:00 GMT

First there was the Spider-Man and Obama comic book and then ~~Peter Parker~~ Tobey Maguire attended an inauguration ball with his wife Jennifer Meyer, the RIAA and Feeding America's Inauguration Charity Ball to be exact. I bet the Daily Bugle is all over this.

Heroes in Washington, what a concept.

Baby number two is due soon!

Dear Obama: Success Is An Inside Job

HerBadMother — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 20:25:00 GMT

On the day of his inauguration as 44th President of the United States of America, Barack Obama received this message: love your wife, play with your daughters, BE HAPPY. Oh, and don't buy too many cars.

I would advise you to remember that you did not create the disaster that the world is experiencing, and you alone are not responsible for bringing the world back to balance. A primary responsibility that you do have, however, is to cultivate happiness in your own life. To make a schedule that permits sufficient time of rest and play with your gorgeous wife and lovely daughters. Not to mention your brave and precious grandmother.* And so on. One gathers that your family is large. We are used to seeing men in the White House become juiceless and as white-haired as the building; we notice their wives and children looking strained and stressed. They soon have smiles so lacking in joy that they remind us of scissors. This is no way to lead. Nor does your family deserve this fate. One way of thinking about all this is: it is so bad now that there is no excuse not to relax. From your happy, relaxed state, you can model real success, which is only what so many people in the world really want. They may buy endless cars and houses and furs and gobble up all the attention and space they can manage, but this is because it is not clear to them yet that success is truly an inside job. That it is within the reach of almost everyone.

That's from Alice Walker. She's awesome. We should all take her words to heart, because everything she says is within the reach of all of us.

There has been much written on the Obama family over the past few days and it might be a bit overwhelming. Here, for you convenience, is an easy to navigate collection of posts, photos and videos:

Barack Obama on Bill O'Reilley

Karl Erikson — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 20:09:00 GMT

Say what you will about Bill O'Reilley. He's a blowhard, sure, but he never soft pedals on questions. And here is some great stuff. Barack Obama, 47-year-old Democratic candidate for President and father of two, does more than hold his own in this interview with O'Reilley on "The O'Reilley Factor." Check it out. He talks about Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan and there's more interview to come this week.

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 21:20:00 GMT

Kevin Duckworth, the former center for the Portland Trail Blazers, died on Monday while on a trip to the Oregon Coast to hold a free basketball clinic. Duckworth, 44, is survived by his fiancée and two young children.

The 7-foot tall player spent 11 seasons in the NBA and helped Portland reach the finals in 1990 and 1992. Duckworth, a two-time All-Star, also played for San Antonio, Washington, Milwaukee and the Los Angeles Clippers.

In a statement, Trail Blazers president Larry Miller said, "Kevin will be remembered by fans as one of the most popular and recognizable players to ever wear the Blazers uniform, but to people who knew him, he'll be remembered as one of the warmest and biggest-hearted."

The cause of death was still undetermined.

Our thoughts go out to Kevin Duckworth's family and friends.

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 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.

London Fletcher Welcomes New Son

Washington Redskin London Fletcher and his wife Charné have welcomed their first son. The couple are also the proud parents of daughter Paige.

They named their son Cortland Steele Fletcher. Great name.

"Well, we didn't want to name him London," said Fletcher. "We wanted to give him his own identity. We thought those two names were different. We thought it was a very strong and powerful name."

Kyle MacLachlan Wants Another Mac

Kyle MacLachlan loves him some Apple. Or apples. I'm not sure. (He is from Yakima)

He announced on Regis & Kelly that he and his wife were expecting a boy and when asked about a name said: “She shot down my first idea: Jethro. She didn’t like that idea. Being from Scotland, he could be like, MacIntosh MacLachlan. You want a nickname that’s going to be cool.”

Mac Mac? Is that cool? Big Mac?

Rodney Atkins Supports Adoption, Pounds Son

I won't pretend that I know who Rodney Atkins is. I don't generally listen to country music. I do know that Rodney, having been adopted himself, is an advocate for adoption and performed as such in Washington D.C, for National Adoption Day. Kudos.

Then he and his 5-year-old-son pounded fists. My boys are 21-months and 4, and they love pounding fists. I think the high-five is losing ground.

This is possibly the most believable photo of celebrity parents I have ever seen, and it's TomKat! Who would've thunk it?

Just look at Tom, his hair is disheveled, he has a blanket on his shoulder and the three "S's" in one hand; shoes, snacks and sippy cup. That is full daddy mode right there. I'm so happy to see this that I'm not even going to crack wise on Xenu for an entire post.

This is what I'm talking about:

Sleep well, sweet prince.
