Elle Fanning is the sister of creepy Dakota fanning… She’s 17… So I guess Vogue Australia thinks it’s ok to dress up 17 year olds in lacy outfits…which isn’t as bad as you jerking off to 17 year olds in lacy outfits….who I guess don’t count as 17 because they are from Hollywood and in movies and thus have no parents or souls…having sex at 12 with creepy perverts because it’s the Wild West with no rules..they are the fucking rules…and they distract their vapid and disgustingness with morally sound movies… Oh wait, she does have a dad, his name is Steven J. Fanning, who played minor league baseball for teams affiliated with the St. Louis Cardinals and now works as an electronics salesman in Los Angeles.. I guess at 17, it’s grey area legally, but knowing you – you’ve been a fan since “I am Sam”… The post Elle Fanning for Vogue Australia of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepfather .
St. Louis Cardinals#39; David Freese tosses a baseball during spring training, Sunday, Feb. 20, 2011, in Jupiter, Fla. The Cardinals are limiting Freese during early workouts this spring after injuries shortened what the team had hoped would be the third baseman#39;s breakout season last year. David Freese had a pretty odd Thanksgiving afternoon. Around 2:30 p.m., the Cardinals third baseman and 2011 World Series MVP crashed his Range Rover into a tree in an attempt to avoid hitting a deer, ac
Shannon Magrane, Jordin Sparks and Nikko Smith also have bold-name dads. By Gil Kaufman, with additional reporting by Katie Byrne Jane Carrey on “American Idol” Photo: FOX For years, singers have done just about anything they could to get the attention the judges on “American Idol.” There have been wacky costumes, shameless flirtation with the panel and some truly horrible original songs . But one surefire way to pique the interest of Randy, Steven and J.Lo (not to mention Simon and Paula in the past) is to reveal in your bio that your dad is already a bold-faced name. The latest case-in-point is Jane Carrey, the 24-year-old daughter of actor Jim Carrey , who tried out for the show Sunday night. The judges enjoyed her rendition of Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About,” while former Fly Girl Jennifer Lopez remembered seeing baby Jane on the set of “In Living Color” when she shared the stage with Carrey. But she’s just the latest “Idol” wannabe to use her name to get in the door. Just last week, we met lanky Shannon Magrane , whose father was the starting pitcher in two games for the St. Louis Cardinals in the 1987 World Series. Magrane is among a long list of athlete offspring who’ve given “Idol” a shot. In season seven, we briefly got to know Alyonka Larionov, daughter of former National Hockey League star Igor “The Professor” Larionov, who helped pave the way for Russian hockey players to join NHL teams back in the late 1980s. There was also season-four crooner Nikko Smith, son of Hall of Fame baseball player Ozzie Smith. “Being around my dad and him being in the spotlight kind of prepares you and you have an outlook on things that’s a little bit different, because you’ve been around celebrities and people in the spotlight,” Nikko told MTV News in 2007. But perhaps the biggest jock descendant to make it to the “Idol” stage is Jordin Sparks, the season-six winner whose father is former NFL cornerback Phillippi Sparks. The year she won “Idol,” Jordin recalled to MTV News taking pictures with her family for national magazines and seeing fans swarm her dad for autographs. “He actually told me the other day that when he would sign autographs, I would just be watching so intently,” she remembered. “He said it was really weird, because he was watching me [sign autographs] the other day, and now it’s all turned around.” It also helps to have some music-industry blood pumping through your veins. In season eight, that meant some extra shine for David Osmond, who made it to Hollywood Week that year thanks to his famous singing family’s pedigree and some very smooth vocals but flamed out due to laryngitis. Season-six contestant Sundance Head, son of “Treat Her Right” singer Roy Head, ended up in 13th place on the show. Before he surprised the political world by winning late Democratic stalwart Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat in 2010, Republican lawmaker Scott Brown’s basketball-playing daughter Ayla made it into the top 16 on the show in season five.

Albert Pujols shocked the Major League Baseball universe today, spurning a nine-year, $200 million offer from the only team for which he’s ever played – the St. Louis Cardinals – and signing a 10-year, $250 million deal with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. A three-time MVP, who batted .299 and blasted 37 homers last season, Pujols will join an Angels squad that also inked start C.J. Wilson to a contract today. He was expected to remain in St. Louis, or possibly sign with Miami, until Anaheim swooped in at the last moment. Pujols won the Rookie of the Year award in 2001 and has a lifetime .328 batting average. The 31-year old has also hit 445 home runs.
‘Skyscraper’ singer spends time with MTV News at Texas Rangers’ stadium before nailing the song at Game 5. By Gil Kaufman, with reporting by Matt Elias Demi Lovato sings the National Anthem prior to Game Five of the 2011 World Series Photo: MLB/Getty Demi Lovato had a lot to celebrate on Monday night. Not only did the Texas native nail the “Star Spangled Banner” to open Game 5 of the World Series, she did it in Arlington, Texas, on a night when the Texas Rangers beat the St. Louis Cardinals to take a 3-2 lead in the fall classic. Wearing a red Rangers jersey with a short black leather skirt and a black blazer, Lovato shook off the butterflies she was feeling earlier in the day, when she tweeted she was “so nervous/excited about tomorrow!” and did her best. As it turns out, the19-year-old “Skyscraper” star had nothing to fear, as she confidently performed the notoriously tricky song with a touch of soul and some impressive high runs. As a bonus, unlike some notorious anthem flubs in the past, Lovato not only hit her notes, but got all the words right as well. “The rush of going out there … nothing compares to it. I feel like I’m about to jump out of a plane,” Lovato said before her big moment, while chilling off-field with her family at the stadium. MTV News hung out with Lovato before she walked out and she told us that the sound check had gone well but she was still feeling uneasy about her opening gig. “I can’t imagine how nervous I’m going to be in 15 minutes,” she said, thrilled that she hadn’t forgotten any of the lyrics in her first run-through. “Getting to do this in my hometown of Dallas, Texas, is such a dream come true, because I’ve been to these Rangers games many times. I’ve sat in the nosebleed sections where you can barely see anything and now I’m going to be singing on the field,” she continued. “That to me is such a dream come true and it represents my journey and how far I’ve come. I just feel so blessed and so thankful and so honored.” She was feeling so grateful in fact, that she offered a prayer beforehand in which she thanked her fans and asked for strong vocals while praising the opportunity to sing the National Anthem. “It’s a different environment from my shows; there are people that come there to see me,” she said. “Here, they are coming here to see baseball and I am actually just singing the National Anthem. So it’s kind of more pressure for me to do good because I want to impress people that didn’t come here to see me and I also want to impress people with a song they’ve heard a million, kajillion times. … If anything, to be able to step up in front of 51,000 people is going to be incredible.” Lovato followed in the footsteps of “American Idol” winner Scotty McCreery and “New Girl” star Zooey Deschanel, who have both lent their vocals to earlier World Series games.
