Are female celebrities really that much more hateful than their male counterparts? The answer is yes, according to a recent survey that revealed that the British public disproportionately reserves their celeb wrath for women. The top five most loved celebrities were men—Paul McCartney, Lewis Hamilton, Gary Lineker, Simon Cowell, and David Beckham—while four of the top five most hated were women—Heather Mills, Amy Winehouse, Victoria Beckham, and Kerry Katona. It’s interesting to note that two of these women—Winehouse and Beckham—also topped at least one Worst Dressed list. Is it just her miniskirts that make Victoria such an odious specimen while her husband deserves our adoration?

Probably not. Many experts think that there just may be a trace of the misogynistic to all this (shocking, I know, in these post-feminist times). Professor Diane Negra at the University of East Anglia believes, according to the BBC, that “despite years of equal opportunities, the media—and the people who watch and read—prefer the stay-at-home mother over a woman who lives her life in public, particularly one who is overtly ambitious or successful in making money.”

There’s evidence to suggest that this misogynistic method of judging celebrities is perpetrated primarily by other women. According to advertising and celebrity culture expert Hamish Pringle, men tend to look up to male celebrities, while women tend to trash female celebs.

Fellow women, please let’s not justify James Rigby of Wickford’s views on the female character. In a comment to this BBC article, he writes, “Women are generally catty about other women, rarely men. It’s a function of the primordial instinct whereby women fight to get the best mate. They see another woman, in a position of power, become jealous and seek to usurp her. These days the usurping is done by bitchiness and gossip.”

All in favor of being drastically different from the women in this Rigby dude’s life, say, “Aye.”

Best of Famecrawler: Finally, the Real Tom Cruise!

That picture that Tom Cruise doesn't want you to see? The story is that the diminutive Scientologist and the producers of the Ben Stiller movie (Tropic Thunder) in which he appears just don't want the 'surprise' cameo ruined for fans. Which, whatever. If there's really anybody out there who would get a big thrill out of seeing a fat, balding Tom appear unexpectedly in a Ben Stiller movie, I doubt that they're going to be put off by a little spoiler or two. You'd have to be a die-hard Tomophile to get off on the combination of Tom, prosthetics and Ben Stiller. Really.

My guess? The producers of the Ben Stiller movie orchestrated the dissemination of those photos to drum up press for the movie - because, really, how many Ben Stiller movies have done boffo box office recently? (how many Tom Cruise movies have done boffo box office recently?) - and Tom's just choked because a) his 'serious' movie is a flop and he's still stinging from that, b) he looks like a right idiot, and c) put those two things together and you have the perfect recipe for a Scientologist hissy fit.

Get a good look at the picture and get your giggles in while you can; the deputies of Xenu will make us take it down soon.

Paul McCartney Slogging Through the Mire of Divorce

Karen Murphy — Mon, 21 May 2007 19:48:00 GMT

Poor Sir Paul. He's apparently having "great struggles" with the difficulties of divorce. I can relate. Divorce is difficult on the entire family even under the best of circumstances, and when things are contentious (or when there are millions at stake), it's even worse.

Things seem to be reaching toward settlement, however, and his family has rallied around him for support, bringing them closer together than ever, he says. Now that estranged wife Heather Mills has agreed to stay in the UK with their three-year old daughter Beatrice, instead of finding work abroad (though probably not as a dancer) and taking little Bea with her, Paul is resting more easily. The couple has decided that for Beatrice's sake, battling things out publicly is not the way to go. Good call.

I wish both of them peace and strength as they continue their journey as parents. Laying aside your differences as people for the sake of the children should be much easier than it sometimes is.

Heather Mills Is No Saint And Neither Are You: Leave Alec Alone

Melissa Summers — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 20:04:00 GMT

Heather Mills was asked what she thought about Alec Baldwin's fiery voicemail message of "love" to his daughter. (Cue: My husband screaming, "WHO CARES WHAT SHE THINKS!? STOP READING THAT!")

Mills says it's wrong to speak to your daughter that way but she's not one to sit around saying, 'Ooh, that is terrible, and we are all perfect, it's all wonderful,' Which is good because that barely makes any sense. She says because his daughter lives with her mother and Alec is on the outside looking in we don't know what is going on behind closed doors. She also mentioned how much respect she has for both Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin because of his work with animal rights.

Wait, this is all making sense now. Alec Baldwin loves animals. Maybe when he called his daughter a "rotten little pig" and "a rude, thoughtless little pig" he saying it as a term of endearment because he loves animals! Look at the little piggies! The adorable rotten and rude little piggies!

Maybe when he said, "I'm gonna let you know just how angry I am... I'm gonna get on a plane, and I'm gonna come out there for the day, and I'm gonna straighten your ass out when I see you... I'm gonna really make sure you get it..." Maybe he was going to straighten her out with love, he was going to show her what a rotten little pig she is with love. Haven't all of us rotten little piggies been loved straight before? Oh wait, wrong movie.

She goes on to tell, presumably America but maybe little Ireland herself, to forgive Mr. Baldwin. But I'm not entirely sure if the public is supposed to forgive anything since remember? We don't know what's going on behind closed doors. I think he'll want to settle that with his little piggie.

Forbes' Top Ten Most Expensive Celeb Divorces

Karen Murphy — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 14:02:00 GMT

As this article says, "The bigger they are, the harder they fall." Certainly that's true in the surreal and convoluted world of celebrities, and adding the weirdness that takes place in divorce, custody, and child support determinations (though I suspect that celebs aren't treated quite like us common folk), it's amazing that these people can even function at all. Or can they? Here's Forbes Magazine's look at the top-ten most expensive celebrity divorces:

1. Michael Jordan, dumping wife of 18 years Juanita Vanoy for half his fortune, or something more than $150M.

2. Neil Diamond (Vegas must have treated him well) to Marcia Murphey, $150M.

3. Steven Spielberg to Amy Irving, $100M.

4. Harrison Ford to Melissa Mathison, $85M.

5. Kevin Costner to Cindy Silva, $80M.

6. Paul McCartney to Heather Mills, $60M (he's got a total of $700M; still, $60M's not bad for a few years' work).

7. James Cameron ("Titanic" director) to Linda Hamilton, $50M.

8. Michael Douglas to Diandra Douglas, $45M.

9. Lionel Ritchie to Diane Ritchie, $20M.

10. Mick Jagger to Jerry Hall for an annulment and not a divorce, $15-25M.

Makes the $200/month child support that I rarely even received for my older daughter look a little light. And what's interesting about this list is that the majority are marriages from early in the celeb's careers, and then after things took off or they reached "that certain age," things fell apart.

And the biggest question on my mind about this is, What about the children??

Paul McCartney Agrees To Make Heather Mills Rich Beyond Her Wildest Dreams-

Alisyn — Thu, 15 Mar 2007 15:14:00 GMT

Sir Paul McCartney, the poor ol' bugger, has agreed to pay his g~~oldbrickin' arch nemesis~~ ex-wife, Heather Mills, a whopping $56 million - that's £29 million - as part of their mutually agreed upon divorce settlement, which also includes real estate property and child support.

Nasty up to the bitter end, sources say Heather used the couple's 3-year-old daughter, Beatrice Milly McCartney, as leverage, to squeeze as much money out of Paul as she possibly could (she was seeking sole custody, which Paul was adamantly against). The settlement amount works out to roughly £696 per hour, for every day that they were married! I bet Paul would pay double that amount just to be able to forget the whole thing ever happened. I mean, it would be one thing if Paul and Heather had been together while he made all his money, but since that's not the case - not by a long shot - it's just kind of sad.

I feel sorry for Paul - after all, it was his idea to forgo the pre-nup, which was a dumb-ass move. Oh, hippies. But he looks like he's on the up and up these days - no more hair dye, or suits worn with "trainers," to pacify his young(ish) wife. And he's got a more important little lady to worry about than "Mucca" - adorable little Bea. I say good luck to the two of them, and good riddance to that other one.
