Weekly News Update for the Week of November 4th-10th 2008
Do you work all day and have no time or energy to find out what's going on in the world? Do you get bored and impatient watching TV anchors tell you over and over what's going on? Do you sometimes care more about what Britney Spears is doing than what President Bush said during his State of the Union address? If you answered yes to even one of these questions this is what you've been waiting for! Every week I'm going to give you a quick rundown of the past week's biggest headlines. I won't bore you with minute details and shove tons of information down your throats. These are just the facts with a little humor for measure! And if you want to know more you can always just Google it or ask me.
*My apologies for canceling T-Time's 1 Year Anniversary Party...even bloggers get sick! But the party has been rescheduled for this coming Saturday so please make sure to check for your Evites/Facebook invites and RSVP!
Love Makes Hollywood Go Round:
Anne Hathaway has found new love after her crash & burn relationship with ex-boyfriend and convicted felon Raffaelo Follieri. She's apparently seeing actor Adam Shulman. Kendra Wilkinson, Hugh Hefner's ex-GF #3, is now engaged to Philadelphia Eagles star Hank Baskett. Lindsay Lohan is still spending a whole lot of quality time with DJ Samantha Ronson but has yet to come out of the closet. In a recent Harper's Bazaar interview she sort of admits to being bisexual, but she emphatically denies being a lesbian. Exclusive T-Time info!!! I have heard, from a very reliable source, that Lenny Kravitz will be marrying a Russian girl named Katya. They met in St. Petersburg a year ago and are planning to make it official in a few months! My source was at a house party in Russia and personally spoke to the future Mrs. Kravitz. Trust me…you heard it hear first!
Rarely celeb couples don't work out :p Jaime Pressly and her baby-daddy/fiancé, Eric Cubiche, have split up after 4 years together and a baby boy. Evan Rachel Wood (age 21) and fiancé Marilyn Manson (age 39) have split up. Rumor has it she's sleeping with her former co-star Mickey Rourke (age 56). Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams have split for the 2nd time. Why can't these kids just make it work? If you've seen The Notebook you know they belong together!!!! Guy Ritchie is not seeing one of the stars of his new movie Sherlock Holmes unlike previously rumored. Actress Kelly ReilIy is apparently engaged and has never been in a relationship with the future ex-Mr. Madonna. I personally hate when tabloids assume that couples are breaking up cause they're not seen together or aren't wearing their wedding rings, but I'm about to make the same assertion. I have not seen a single photo of Christina Aguilera wearing her wedding ring in a very long time (she used to always have it on). Now I'm not saying that she and her hubby are headed for splitsville, but I am making my first public T-Time prediction. Let's see what happens in the next few months…I hope to be proved wrong.
Madonna has achieved the unachievable. She got Britney and Justin on the same stage on the same night! Madge was performing in L.A. so all the stars came out. Britney (looking great) joined her to sing Human Nature and, JT came out to sing 4 Minutes. Although the ex-lovers didn't meet on stage, they apparently shared pleasantries backstage. Madonna could part the seas if she wanted to.
Charlize Theron settled her $20M lawsuit with watchmaker Raymond Weil. Now maybe she'll think twice before agreeing to wear one company's items and then wearing another one! After several cancelled shows, Janet Jackson has officially cancelled the rest of her Rock Witchu tour due to scheduling conflicts. Strange…usually scheduling conflicts are taken care of before a huge tour is planned. Former porn star Jenna Jameson has filed legal papers to make her stage name official (she was born Jenna Marie Massoli.) William Balfour, the person of interest in the murders of Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and nephew, is still in jail.

President-elect Barack Obama:
Well it's officially done! Illinois Senator Barack Obama won the election and is the new President-elect and soon-to-be 44th President of the United States. Microsoft Word will now officially have to recognize his name as correctly spelled :p Here's what he had to say upon the historic moment. The biggest news to come out of that speech is what kind of puppy his little girls are gonna get. According to Obama it has to be hypoallergenic and preferably from a shelter. But Obama hasn't been wasting his time…he's already chosen his Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel (Illinois Democratic member of the House of Reps). Fun Hollywood connection: Rahm himself is the inspiration for the West Wing character Josh Lyman, and Rahm's brother, Ari, is the inspiration for Entourage's Ari Gold. Wondering what all those enthusiastic Obama fans are doing now? See the sad footage here. And no surprise here, but Barack has become one of the most popular new baby names!
Senator John McCain gave a very gracious concession speech. He gave a good fight, but alas the Obama campaign was too strong and perfect. Now that the campaign is over some of McCain campaign workers are speaking out about Governor Sarah Palin (bad temper, refusal to work with campaign managers, dumb, etc). Palin has fought back calling these people cowards. I think someone is bitter about losing. And Tina Fey has officially retired her Palin impersonation.
Former NY Governor Eliot Spitzer can thank his lucky stars. He will not face criminal charges stemming from his prostitution bust. Investigators found no proof that he used campaign funds to satiate his needs.
This election day wasn't just about new presidents and state reps, but the states themselves were passing many laws and bills. The State of California made gay marriage legal back in May, but this past election day Proposition 8 was passed rebanning gay marriage. So now it's no longer legal. There are a whole lot of angry LGBTs running around. The State of Michigan has legalized the use of medical marijuana. And the State of Washington has legalized assisted suicide. I know where Dr. K is moving!

News Potpourri:
I'll leave you with some quick news tidbits that couldn't fit either here or there so they're getting their own paragraph! AC/DC's new album is #1…impressive considering the band has been around since the 70s. Speaking of oldies but goodies…MJ's Thriller is coming to Broadway! Kim Cattral admitted that there will be Sex and the City sequel!!! According to Sarah Jessica Parker negotiations are still in the works, but I totally believe it's gonna happen. The new James Bond movie, Quantum of Solace is premiering in the U.S. this Friday, November 14th. Although it's expected to make millions of $s, the movie Twilight based on the tween book sensation is outselling it on Fandango! If award shows are your thing...the nominees for the People's Choice Awards were just announced. And Happy Birthday to Tema...T-Time loves ya!
I hope this gives you an idea of what's going on in the world. Buck up…it's not so bad! The T-Time party is back up and running! All is right with the world!
Now go and have an intellectually stimulating conversation with your neighbor about what you've just learned.
