Booze & Pills Killing Michael Jackson, Has Six Months To Live

Sassy Smith — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 16:05:00 GMT

Michael Jackson is not well - actually, 'not well' is a bit of an understatement. The former king of pop is reportedly in failing health due to a genetic lung disorder. Reps for Jackson deny this but pals say that he is very ill, bedridden most of the time and is addicted to painkillers and alcohol.

Friends of the singer are fearful that Jackson will die in the next few months.

A pal says, "It's tragic. His condition is just so far gone, I'd be surprised if he lasts six months.

"Painkillers and booze have caught up with him. The only way he was able to cope with the stress of sex scandels and his roller-coaster life was to mask the pain with substance abuse.

"But the end result is an addiction that will kill him."

The friend adds that Jackson became addicted to pills as far back as the infamous Pepsi commercial where Michael's hair was burned. Now, twenty five years later, "the drugs simply have ravaged him."

The 50-year-old Jackson is in "really, really bad shape. He's been sick for six to eight months and he just keeps getting worse.

"His muscles and lungs are deteriorating, and he's bedridden much of the time. He can walk, but not for very long.

"On good days, Michael is able to take his kids to a bookstore. But he's never out for more than an hour. He has very little strength... It's ultimately in God's hands."

Michael, according to biographer Ian Halperin, is suffering from Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency and Jackson's addiction to morphine and Demerol can make the condition worse. It's believed that Michael needs a lung transplant.

Halperin said he was told by a Jackson family friend, "Michael wants to have the lung transplant, but because of the other illnesses he's fighting, he's too weak to undergo such a major procedure. He's taking one painkiller after another."

Halperin also claims that Jackson is suffering from emphysema, and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding.

"It's the bleeding that could kill him," said Halperin.

Michael's people say it's all false, that "Mr. Jackson is in fine health."

But the close friend says, "Michael's fighting for his life. And it doesn't look good."

If any of this is even remotely true - how are Michael's kids handling having a sick father? What if something happens to him - who would raise his kids?

Lindsay Lohan Mad: Dad Cheated On Mom & Had A Love Child

Sassy Smith — Thu, 25 Dec 2008 17:36:00 GMT

Actress Lindsay Lohan is not happy with her father after finding out he cheated on her mother and had another child (allegedly) with his lover. Lohan took to her blog to vent her feelings....

Lindsay wrote:

"My father just let my family and I know, amongst others that he had another child after my little sister Aliana, or maybe he had it before Aliana?? either way, he cheated on my mother and that really sucks..."

She added (leaving out her father):

"I love my Mom, Aliana, Cody, Michael, and my Nana Sullivan!! I will be missing them this Christmas as it is the first one I am spending away from home. I am spending it with Samantha in Los Angeles."

In June of this year it was reported that Michael Lohan had an illegitimate child with a woman named Kristi Horn, 13 years ago. Lohan admitted that during his separation from (now ex) wife Dina Lohan, he and Horn were having an affair but wouldn't confirm if the child conceived was indeed his until an official paternity test was conducted.

Even though the Lohan kids are older now, it must be hard for them nonetheless, knowing that their father cheated on their mom. They also have a half sister (maybe....well I think for sure, considering she looks exactly like Michael Lohan!) that they haven't had an opportunity to get to know (if they should want to).

Michael Jackson Is Dying?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 23 Dec 2008 15:06:00 GMT

For years there was talk of Michael Jackson making a career comeback but to date it's never happened. There were rumors of a Jackson 5 reunion, of Michael doing a stint in Vegas and duets with other popular artists. Had he done any of those things, he may have been able to dig his way out of the massive financial debt he's now found himself in. But there may be a very good reason he's never tried to get his career back on track - Michael is reportedly suffering from a fatal lung disease.

According to Michael Jackson biographer Ian Halperin, the 50-year-old former pop star is suffering from Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency - a genetic lung disorder that could kill him if he doesn't receive a lung transplant and soon.

Jackson is said to be in failing health - he can barely speak and has lost 95% of his vision in his left eye.

OK! reports:

Halperin claims his lung condition has become more acute. The writer added: "He has had Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency for years but it’s gotten worse. He needs a lung transplant but may be too weak to go through with it. He also has emphysema and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, which his doctors have had a lot of trouble stopping. It’s the bleeding that’s the most problematic part. It could kill him."

What if this is true? What would happen to Michael's three children? Who would raise them? They have a nanny who is like a mother-figure to them - would she care for them if something were to happen to their father?

Clay Aiken Pregnant Again!

Sassy Smith — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 19:05:00 GMT

American Idol alum Clay Aiken is pregnant again - or rather his BFF Jaymes Foster is!

Aiken and music producer Foster, wanted to give their 4-month-old son Parker a sibling ASAP and Clay has made his contribution.

Clay said of his son, "I'm trying my best to be the one who doesn't always let him get what he wants, but he owns us."

Baby Aiken # 2 is due in August 2009. Clay also has a new boyfriend - looks like 2009 is shaping up to be a good one for the singer!

Clay Aiken's Baby's Surgery

Sassy Smith — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 17:31:00 GMT

Clay Aiken and Jaymes Foster's infant son Parker was admitted to the hospital and required surgery...

... at just one month old. Aiken, 29, who recently admitted he was gay, has also opened up about being a first time father. He and best friend Jaymes Foster welcomed their son Parker on August 8, and the baby had had some health issues almost from the get go.

Clay tells PEOPLE:

"He had been gassy for weeks and then he started throwing up. Jaymes and I were trying to be calm, rational parents, so we didn't call the doctors too much, but it just got to a point where he was vomiting everything. He was starting to get dehydrated."

One-month-old Parker was diagnosed with pyloric stenosis - an intestinal condition that complicates baby's digestion - and required surgery to correct the problem.

It was at that point, that it hit home for Clay - that he was actually a dad.

"Parker had been in one day already when I got really panicky." Clay woke at 2 a.m. and headed to the hospital. "I was a little worried, like 'I don't think they're going to let me in the hospital at 2 or 3 in the morning.' Then I thought, 'Wait a second, I'm the father! Of course they'll let me in.' It was the first moment when I thought, 'I'm actually this child's father!'"

So how is baby Parker doing now? Clay says, "He's fine, healthy and doing well!"

SHOCKER: Clay Aiken Is Gay! (Cute Pic Of His Baby Too)

Sassy Smith — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 11:03:00 GMT

You'd better sit down for this. Clay Aiken is on the cover of the new issue of People magazine that hits newsstands on Wednesday and he's holding his brand new son, Parker. Parker is adorable - bright eyed and sweet, just a precious little doll. And get this - the headline also reads: "Yes I'm Gay." Clay is gay. Uh, I'm pretty sure we knew that....

The American Idol alum and best friend Jaymes Foster, 50, decided to become parents together and little Parker arrived on August 8. Clay has decided to come out now (trust me, we knew Clay, and it's okay) because, he "cannot raise a child to lie or hide things."

See? Much better to just be who you are and not pretend (again, I don't think you fooled anyone, and again, it's okay) to be something you're not.

Clay is headed back to Broadway in Spamalot.

Congrats on your baby, he's a cutie!

Ali Lohan Is 14 But Looks 38 - Photos

Ali Lohan, younger sister of actress (or trainwreck) Lindsay Lohan, is only 14-years-old. However, for whatever reason, she most always looks like someone much older. Why? Does mom Dina Lohan not notice this?

Photos after the jump!

Ali did photos for Supermodels Unlimited mag (July/August issue), and while there are a couple of shots, that the teen does look like a teen (the bubblegum pic is cute), others certainly make her appear older than her 14 years. Weird and kinda creepy.

Here She Is - Lohan "Love Child"

Sassy Smith — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 12:05:00 GMT

The Lohan family seems to have lots of controversy following them. And now with the rumored "love child" of Lindsay's dad, Michael Loghan, it just keeps coming. Michael is now reportedly going to sell his paternity results and the first photos of himself with his (possible) daughter, Ashley Kaufmann, 13. Is this family messed or what? And what about Ashley's mom, Kristi Kaufmann? Is she wanting to exploit her young daughter for cash? Apparently the young teen wants to record an album and she and her mom have approached several studios about hashing out a deal. Perfect timing? Perhaps. Because - why would you put this out in the public until you knew for certain that Michael Lohan is the biological father? What if he's not? Then what? You've disrupted your own child's life and the Lohan children as well.

A source told MSNBC, "Ashley has more talent than Lindsay or Ali." A pal said, "Ashley's singing ability just proves that the family talent comes from Michael, not Dina Lohan."

What about Michael's other children (with ex Dina) - Lindsay, Michael, Ali and Cody - how does this all affect them? Michael said, "Years later the woman contacted me, convincing me that I was the only person she was with and that she had my child."

Lohan has said of his new-found daughter, she "is beginning to look a lot like Linds, with a mix of Cody, believe it or not."

Hopefully, for the sake of the children involved, these "adults" can work this out and make it as painless for them as possible.

Lohan Called a Liar by Lovechild's Mother

Karen — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 18:33:00 GMT

While the jury is still out as to whether Michael Lohan actually fathered a "love child" with Kristi Kaufmann in 1995, Kaufmann has been quick to call Lohan a 'liar' in the press.

She had a paternity test in 2005 as she suspected her ex-husband was not the father of the teenager - and has allegedly been proven right.

She says, "The only other person I had slept with was Michael. My daughter has a right to know who her father is - and it's Michael." Kaufmann adds, "He met me in Houston and we met again in New York.

"I just want to make sure the truth comes out. Michael is already out there spreading lies."

Lohan told Extra, "My lawyers are dealing with this. When we find out the truth we will deal with it in the appropriate manner."

Love Child For Lohan

Sassy Smith — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 14:03:00 GMT

Oh the drama for the Lohan family! There's Lindsay and rumored trouble on movie sets, her stints in rehab, mom Dina and her reality show, the exploitation by both Dina and ex-husband Michael, of their children, Michael's jail time - it never ends. Now comes the whole pregnancy thing....

According to OK! magazine, Michael Lohan - who has four children with ex Dina - has a fifth child with a woman named Christie. In response to the allegations, Lohan has said this:

“I met Christie [the mother of the reported love-child] in 1982 in Houston. In 1995, when I was separated from Dina, she contacted me that she was moving to Long Island…I was with her for a week. Years later, while I was in prison, she contacted to me to say she had a paternity test done that revealed the child’s father was not her husband. She said I was the only other man she had been with. My lawyers are dealing with this. When we find out the truth we will deal with it in the appropriate manner.”

Christie has spoke with OK!, saying this:

“It’s time for Michael to take responsibility." She also said that she and Michael have had many conversations and even called his (alleged) daughter for her 13th birthday on June 12, but has never supported his child financially.

The scandal never stops!

More Babies For Clay Aiken!

Wow Clay Aiken, 29, is a busy, busy man! He's promoting his music (I'm assuming), doing talk shows, signing autographs, answering fan mail (this is all speculation on my part) and makin' babies (true)! There is no stopping his super sperm. The man is baby-making machine. He should go into business. I bet there are a lot of women (fans) who would love to have Clay's baby. I mean he's talented, sweet, always willing to stop and answer questions - the man is a gem. However, I think he's got just the one baby mama in mind. Is Clay trying to match Angie and Brad?

Clay is expecting a son with music producer,Jaymes Foster, 50, and already there's talk of more babies. According to an In Touch source, the best friends have frozen eggs and sperm so they can have another baby next year.

"Jaymes is due in August, so she'd like to conceive again next March. That way, she would give birth in December 2009...

"Clay and Jaymes are commited to having at least two children. They're both incredibly successful and wealthy, so money is certainly no object. And he just adores children. He is going to make a wonderful and caring father. There's no doubt about that."

Okay, so only two kids, not quite a Brangelina brood, but maybe that'll change? Good luck Clay! Maybe he'll make my list someday.

Michael Jackson's Kids Unmasked! Look Normal!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 30 May 2008 12:02:00 GMT

Michael Jackson, one of the most famous entertainers of our time - although not always famous for just his music legacy. We won't get into all of the allegations or court issues of past. What I really want to talk about, is the fact that his children have finally been "unmasked," and quite frankly, they look normal. I'm not sure what I was expecting?

Photo after the jump!

The photograph isn't the best quality but it gives a better peek at his kids than we've ever had, since you know, they've always had to walk around since birth with blankets, masks and sheets covering their faces. I suppose it was his way of protecting his children from the glare of the flashbulbs but what freedom they must feel not to have a mask covering their faces. They can actually see where they're going!

Seriously though, what must it be like to be the kid of Michael Jackson? They wouldn't know any different I suppose, but it's got to be weird. They've never been schooled in a tradtional way, have no friends because of their isolation - well, unless you count the tiger cub they were given to play with, as a friend. And have recently lost the nanny that they called "mom," and who Jackson was reportedly going to marry. Uh huh.

The kids - Prince, Paris and Prince Michael (aka Blanket) - have been to the Berlin Zoo, Disney World and many other places all over the world, covered. However, last week they were photographed in a Las Vegas bookstore, checking out the kids' section sans hoods/masks or sheets obsuring their view and vise versa. Michael was covered with a scarf and hood. Why? Is he still a germaphobe? Or is he embarrassed by his awful plastic surgery? I'll go with the plastic surgery deal.

Either way, Jackson is a ~~total freak~~ bit of an odd duck and hopefully his kids turn out to be adults who can go out into the world and lead a somewhat normal life ~~not a freakin chance~~!

Dina Lohan - Kids Home Alone & House Fire Breaks Out

Sassy Smith — Thu, 22 May 2008 15:03:00 GMT

Dina Lohan, mom of the year - seriously, she was voted that - is getting set to entertain the world with a look into her life! E! Networks has a new promo for Dina's upcoming reality show, Living Lohan. Nothing like airing your questionable parenting skills on TV!

Video clip after the jump

The Post is claiming that at one point in time, Dina left the house, to party, and Ali, 14, and Cody, 11, were home alone and a fire broke out in the home. It's not clear how serious the fire was or when exactly it happened or if it will be part of the series.

Other statements made by Dina, which seem laughable coming from her, are "A lion protects her cubs," and "it's a big game of chess and it's our move."

Lohan calls someone about an allegedly naked photo of Lindsay, threatening, "you need to get it down immediately because I've already been in touch with my attorneys and the story is absolutely false." And she then says, "there's got to be boundaries with these people, the paparazzi and everything. There's just got to be more boundaries set." Uh, you're pimping out your young teens, so, pot, meet the kettle!

The fact that Ali wants to "be just like Lindsay" should be a wake up call for Dina, considering Lindsay has been in rehab 23 times or something to that effect. Be careful what you wish for!

Good luck messing up your other children Dina, I'm sure you'll do a bang up job.

Heidi Montag Pregnant!

Sassy Smith — Wed, 21 May 2008 12:08:00 GMT

Heidi Montag of The Hills is pregnant! Yes! That's what I heard....

Oh...pardon me, she's "fake" pregnant. Or going to be "fake" pregnant. The fourth season of The Hills premieres on MTV this August and reportedly Heidi and her boyfriend (fake boyfriend?) Spencer Pratt have a plan to steal the thunder from L.C. and the others. Listen, I've never seen this show, just heard that Heidi and Spencer are all about the fake, so excuse me if I seem less than enthusiastic.

An insider said, "This summer, Heidi plans to wear loose clothes and even strap on some padding around her waist to make it appear as if she's about three months along.

"The plan is to get the baby rumor mill going so she can get photographed more. She and Spencer won't confirm or deny the pregnancy so they can keep everyone guessing." Oh, I see, they're going to pull an "Ashlee and Pete." Gotcha. Except turns out Ashlee and Pete really are pregnant.

The scoop from Star mag is, that the on again, off again couple has "plotted" each step very carefully. Heidi will stop drinking. She'll visit children's boutiques and then, by the end of the summer - she's going to buy a skimpy bikini and wear it to the beach.

Tricky tricky. However, if Heidi and Spencer want their "fake" pregnancy plan to work, wouldn't it be better if we didn't know about it? Oops, perhaps I've ruined it for them. No - wait, I've titled this post "Heidi Montag Pregnant!", so actually, I'm helping them get the rumor mill started. Glad I could help!

Also, Heidi doesn't want to be preggo for real, because, according to a source, "There's so much Heidi wants to do. Getting fat is not in the cards right now."

Shame, because she sounds like someone who would make a fantastic mother.
