Kris Jenner to Lamar Odom: Quit the NBA!

This is very sad but true: Kris Jenner had a better year than Lamar Odom. The matriarch of the richest family on reality TV just negotiated a new $40 million deal for her children… while a listless Odom averaged a career low in points and rebounds and was cut by the Mavs . So we suppose it’s not too shocking that Jenner thinks she can offer her son-in-law professional advice which, according to a Hollywood Life insider, goes like this: forget the NBA. Focus on E!. “Kris is eager for Khloe and Lamar to do another season of their reality show,” this Kardashian source claims, but: “[Khloe] doesn’t want to push Lamar into doing anything he doesn’t want to do because she knows it will only backfire. Kris thinks doing another season will help their relationship, but the real reason she wants them to do another season of Khloe & Lamar is because she thinks the show keeps them relevant.” However, someone close to the NBA thinks Lamar needs to make a choice – and that choice is clear if he wants to ball professionally again. “Teams have to deal with enough, and these outside distractions will not be welcomed,” this insider says. “Teams are now worrying about younger and cheaper players that are not headcases who do reality shows – they are against it.” What do YOU think Lamar do with his career?

Octomom Offered Free Blowouts From Hairdresser Amid Welfare Backlash

Brazilian Blowout, the company behind the hairstyling Octomom recently spent hundreds of dollars on while on welfare, is apparently as mortified by her antics as everyone else, and offering to make it right with free blowouts from now on. The company wants to reimburse Nadya Suleman the entire cost of her recent blowouts – plus other hair treatments – that she spent $520 on. While under investigation by DCFS for horrific living conditions, natch. Such reckless spending and inability to earn enough money to take care of her offspring has some wondering if Octomom should lose her kids . With that in mind, Brazilian Blowout wants to help a girl out. CEO Mike Brady says, “We want to make sure California taxpayers’ money is not going to anything other than taking care of [Nadya Suleman’s] kids. We don’t want to see those children miss out on anything at the cost of a Brazilian Blowout .” BB also wants to give Octomom free blowouts and cover the cost of a sitter while the mother of 14 is gets primped. They feel so bad about taking her money, they’re even offering to fix her toilet, which might allow her kids to drop a D inside. The stuff of dreams, right there. Should Octo lose her kids?

Jerry Sandusky Issues Statement on Joe Paterno

Jerry Sandusky – the disgraced former Penn State assistant whose alleged, despicable actions led to a cover-up that will forever tarnish Joe Paterno’s legacy – has issued a statement on the passing of the iconic football coach. “This is a sad day!” Sandusky said, exclamation mark included. “Our family, Dottie [Sandusky’s wife] and I would like to convey our deepest sympathy to Sue [Paterno] and her family. Nobody will be able to take away the memories we all shared of a great man, his family, and all the wonderful people who were a part of his life. “He maintained a high standard in a very difficult profession. Joe preached toughness, hard work and clean competition. Most importantly, he had the courage to practice what he preached.” Sandusky, of course, faces over 40 counts of child sex charges ; while the inability of Paterno and other Penn State officials to report their knowledge of Sandusky’s actions to the police has led to the biggest scandal in the history of college athletics.

Lindsay Lohan Sued By Some Crazy Dude

Lindsay Lohan has been staying out of trouble lately, and has even been praised by Judge Stephanie Sautner at probation hearings. Dare we say she’s turning it around? Incredibly, it looks like she is. The only allegations she faces these days (save for that tax mishap ) are the typical celeb fare – frivolous lawsuits from crazy people. According to court documents, Thomas A. Green is suing Lohan for $300,000 for “unfair business practices” and allegedly defrauding him in some online business deal. Green claims he is a former U.S. Marine and says he recently spent time in a homeless shelter due to a “depreciated stage of delusion and hallucinations.” Green believes he began corresponding with Lohan on Facebook on July 18, 2010, and makes references to both public Facebook and Twitter messages that the actress had posted in an effort raise awareness and funds for the disaster in the Gulf Coast. Green seems to claim was duped by Lohan and when he pressed her about her true intentions, he uncovered a conspiracy about the killing of Osama bin Laden . He goes on and on and on , but we’re just gonna stop right there, because this is going to be thrown out in about two seconds, and we have other things to talk about. Like the sweater she’s wearing above. Wowza. [Photo: Fame Pictures]

John Mayer Heckled Over Douchebag Tendencies

John Mayer is a douchebag . It’s no surprise that the general populace is beginning to treat him as such – especially ladies fed up with his antics. A source who recently spent time with the singer tells Us Weekly that he got berated on the street that night for how he’s treated ex-girlfriends. “Girls came up and yelled at him, saying he was a horrible person,” says a source of Mayer, whose list of dubious antics is not exactly short. This is a man who once decided to hold an impromptu press conference with celebrity gossip photographers to discuss his split with Jennifer Aniston . This is also a man who famously referred to another ex, Jessica Simpson, as ” sexual napalm ” and likened boning her to a crack cocaine addiction. Women are not fans. Continues the source, “Girls asked how he can treat women this way. People would tell him exactly what they thought of him.” Now the lame crooner says he is looking for “a new team to manage his image,” adds an insider. “He wants to change people’s perspective on him.” Here’s a free tip: More singing. Fewer musings on masturbating.

Jesse James Hawking Old Crap on eBay

With his divorce from Sandra Bullock looming, Jesse James has reportedly turned to eBay to earn some extra cash. Been there, Jesse James. Been there. America’s Most Hated is listing rare pre-war bicycles and other belongings like West Coast Choppers memorabilia, parts and a hand-painted mini coffin. No word if the hat from the Jesse James Nazi pic is available. The Web site quotes one of James’ buyers as leaving encouraging feedback after a transaction: “And the Oscar for best eBaying goes toooo… thanks.” Whatever that means. Jesse James is looking to make some money online. Who isn’t? “Jesse is trying to lead a very quiet life now,” a source tells Us of Sandra Bullock’s cheating soon-to-be-ex. “He wants to get back to a normal routine.” While James may be pinching pennies, Bullock, on the other hand, has pulled out all the stops to spoil her four-month-old adopted son, Louis Bardo. Settling into her new mom role , the actress recently spent $248 on baby clothes during a 45-minute boutique shopping spree in Austin, Tx., May 14. Bullock, who confirmed her divorce and adoption of Louis the same day, looks committed to immersing herself fully and quickly into life sans Jesse.
