TinselTown Trash

I just don’t get it.

Why on Earth would you agree to wear a dress that made you look like this. Seriously. Ouch.

Wait a minute. Come to think of it, I haven’t seen Hilary Swank wear anything that made her look much different than this. She is a very attractive woman, she just needs to eat more or something. She should spend some time staying at one of the Las Vegas hotels and eating at the ‘all you can eat’ buffets for a week, that would get her back on track.

You can see more of this trainwreck at Dlisted.

My first memory of Suzanne Pleshette was, of course, as the wife of Bob Newhart on television. She was outstanding in every role she played, from Annie Hayworth in The Birds all the way to Lois Whitley on Will & Grace.

Of course, we’ll always remember her as Emily Hartley on The Bob Newhart Show. Suzanne Pleshette died from respiratory failure over the weekend.

Perez Hilton has a few photos of Kirsten Dunst and new ads for MiuMiu. Of course they are touched up, we all know that, but I really like this one for some reason.

I’m not sure if it’s the lighting, the glasses, or just the fact that I don’t remember seeing her appear this normal in a long, long, time. Then again, everytime I think of her I think of mover NYC and getting as far away as I can. Why is that you think?

You can visit the Perez Hilton website to see more of Kirsten.

Dolly Parton turned 62 today? Wow.

We should all look so good when we turn 62.

See more Dolly at TMZ.

There’s just nothing like starting your weekend with Tara Reid showing her true colors. And to think for the past couple weeks we all thought she was cleaning up her act.

I wonder, has she been in rehab yet? With the revolving doors spinning so fast at some rehab clinics I can’t remember if she has been there or not.

You can seem more of Tara’s great adventure over at Hollywoodtuna.

So, the question of the day is,

“Is Britney Spears pregnant?”

Oh God, I hope not! More importantly though, it looks like Dr. Phil might be in trouble. Now, I’d be willing to invest in some discount home theater seating just for that show. I want to see how he is going to explain why he has done the things he has done, and in a state that he’s not even licensed to practice in, nonetheless.

We’ve learned the person who filed the complaint is a psychologist. Dr. Phil has never been licensed to practice in California, and he retired his Texas license in 2006.

The shrink believes when Dr. Phil visited Brit in the hospital earlier this month, he was practicing psychology. A “Dr. Phil” honcho told TMZ the visit was never meant to lure Britney onto the TV show — and that there were never plans to put her on the air.

A Psychology Board rep told TMZ if the Board finds the complaint credible, it would be referred to the D.A. for review. Practicing without a license is a felony in California.

It seems everyone out there is trying to make a buck off Britney Spears. I bet if the money hounds and publicity leeches backed off, the poor girl might just have a chance.

Do you ever wonder what’s going on in her head? There must be a thousand voices in there yelling, telling her what to do and how to do it. What other explanation is there for her wearing this to the courthouse when you’re facing losing your kids forever?

Then if you just don’t care anymore, why worry about what you’re wearing, right? I thank God every day that she has not taken to wearing chemises anymore. Whew. Thank you God.

Who could forget Jeannie? A whole generation of men grew up wondering what her… belly button looked like.

In addition to I Dream of Jeannie, Barbara also starred in Harper Valley PTA. So what has Barbara been up to lately? According to imdb.com, not too much.

In the past year she was credited for a couple of television roles, and she toured with Hal Linden (of Barney Miller fame) in A.R. Gurney’s theatre piece, Love Letters.

Barbara Eden (“I Dream of Jeannie”) and Hal Linden (“Barney Miller”) have been set to continue their 2007 national playdates launching their new spring tour costarring in the romantic, two-actor stage show “Love Letters,” written by A.R.

Gurney and produced by Scott Stander for GoGiGo Productions. Previously, Eden played opposite her erstwhile “Jeannie” costar Larry Hagman, and with Joe Bologna in other “Love Letters” productions.

It’s been about 28 years since Jeannie went off the air, but Barbara is still looking good.

You can find some good Amazon coupons in case you want to order some dvd’s of the series that Barbara has starred in too.

The news reports yesterday claimed that Christina Aguilera was in labor at the same time as Nicole Richie. I sure hope she wasn’t in labor all this time.

Christina Aguilera has given birth to a boy, the pop singer announced on her Web site Sunday.

“Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman are proud to announce the birth of their son Max Liron Bratman,” the brief message said. “He is a beautiful, healthy baby boy.”

The baby was born Saturday night and weighs 6 pounds, 2 ounces. Aguilera, 27, was “resting and doing well,” according to the message on her Web site, http://www.christinaaguilera.com/.

They may (or may not) have been in labor at the same time, but Max Liron Bratman is much easier to roll off your tongue than Harlow Winter Kate Madden, isn’t it? Liron? Harlow Winter? What? At least they didn’t try to name their babies after a day of the week. I bet that baby is so pretty they don’t even need a medical id on that child to know it’s Christina’s baby.

Congratulations to the proud parents.
