Fatima Ali: Terminally Ill Top Chef Star Receives Outpouring of Support

If you’re a fan of the acclaimed Bravo cooking competition Top Chef , then you may have already heard the tragic news that beloved former contestant Fatima Ali has been diagnosed with terminal cancer . Ali revealed her diagnosis Tuesday in a heartbreaking essay published by Bon Appetit. “My oncologist has told me that I have a year to live, with or without the new chemotherapy regimen,” Ali wrote. “I was looking forward to being 30, flirty, and thriving. Guess I have to step it up on the flirting. I have no time to lose.” “I am desperate to overload my senses in the coming months, making reservations at the world’s best restaurants, reaching out to past lovers and friends, and smothering my family, giving them the time that I so selfishly guarded before.” Displaying the trademark wit that made her a fan favorite during her time on the show, Ali added: “I was looking forward to being 30, flirty and thriving. Guess I have to step it up on the flirting. I have no time to lose.” In the hours after Chef Fatima’s article was published, thousands offered words of gratitude and support on social media, including her Top Chef co-stars: “This is my friend, she is courage, strength and she wrote a piece almost as beautiful as she is, link is in my bio please read and share #teamfati,” wrote Top Chef Season 15 champion Joe Flamm. “Can’t even begin to say how devastated I am to hear this news, it really hit me hard! No one truly can understand the bond created through @bravotopchef we’ve become a close knit family very quickly,” fellow chef Bruce Kalman wrote. “I’m so inspired by @cheffati bravery and positive outlook on this situation. Fatima Ali: Top Chef Offer Support “The deep connection and love we all have for each other, for better or worse, is unrivaled. Life is too short and it’s time we all appreciated everyone and everything in our lives.” Just days before she revealed that her illness had reached the terminal stage, Ali posted the above video of her co-stars wishing her well from an event in Connecticut that she had been unable to attend. We hope Fatima finds comfort in knowing that she will receive such love and support in her final days — and joy in knowing that she’s been an inspiration to so many.

Amy Winehouse’s London Home For Sale

The family of Amy Winehouse is selling the home in London’s Camden neighborhood where the singer lived, struggled and ultimately died last summer. “It is with regret that we have to sell Amy’s house in Camden Square,” her father, Mitch, tweeted today. “It is empty and costing a fortune to secure it.” The property, where Amy lived until her death at home on July 23, 2011, has become a meeting ground for mourners and fans of the “Rehab” singer. “Amy and I both worked on the house and she loved it so much,” her father added. “I hope a lovely family buys it as it is so full of love. Mitch.” The three-bedroom house was originally earmarked as the headquarters for the Amy Winehouse Foundation, the charity set up by her parents. However, family spokesman Chris Goodman said in a statement that the family staying in the house now was neither practical nor appropriate. “It was not practical to keep it empty while paying the costs of its upkeep,” he said, adding that the family was leaving it “with great regret.” Amy’s former home – purchased for $2.79 a few years ago – is currently on the market with an asking price of approximately $4.2 million. What economic downturn? Maybe it has more cachet now … although you wonder if everything that happened within those walls is net positive.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West to Kohabitate?!?

The next time Kim Kardashian gets wet and wild , will she have Kanye West to dry her off? In a bathroom the couple shares together?!? Oh, yes, folks, new evidence makes it appear as if Kardashian and West are ready to take their publicity-based relationship to the next level, as each has listed his/her home for sale. According to TMZ, which broke this story, both sides of the couple have placed “pocket listings” with Realtors, meaning their expensive Los Angeles pads don’t appear in any official real estate documents. But make no mistake, technicalities aside: the houses are for sale. Kim is asking $5 million for hers. Kardashian and West took a different kind of big step together last week, posing as a pair on the red carpet . And, let’s face it: forget any mansions in Beverly Hills. That is Kim’s true home.

John Edwards Verdict: Not Guilty on One of Six Counts, Mistrial Declared on Remaining Charges

John Edwards was found not guilty on one of six counts in his campaign finance fraud trial today, with the jury hopelessly deadlocked on the remaining charges. Judge Catherine Eagles declared a mistrial on the five counts for which the jury couldn’t reach a verdict . He can therefore be retried, but it’s unlikely he will be. Edwards, a two-time presidential candidate, was accused of soliciting nearly $1 million from donors to cover up his affair and love child with Rielle Hunter . He was found unanimously not guilty on Count 3 of the six-part indictment. That count pertained only to whether Edwards illegally received hundreds of thousands of dollars from heiress Rachel “Bunny” Mellon to cover up the affair. Just hours ago, the foreman announced that the jury was deadlocked on five of the six counts, but Eagles ordered them to go back to deliberating. The jury came back less than an hour later and declared itself hung, or deadlocked with no possibility of changing that fact, on the five counts. Following the verdict, the two-time presidential hopeful hugged attorney Abbe Lowell, his daughter Cate Edwards , 30, and his two elderly parents. The jury began deliberating May 18 in the case, which took on an air of a steamy soap opera as much as a debate over intricacies of campaign finance law. The government spent three weeks building its thin case, much of it tethered to the testimony of Andrew Young, once Edwards’ most loyal aide. Edwards’ defense – that he lied to keep the affair a secret from his terminally ill wife, not to advance his career – was tough to disprove, however. He’s a miserable human being, but that doesn’t mean he acted illegally.

Sofia Vergara Splits with Nick Loeb

Sofia Vergara and her breasts are single once again. The Modern Family beauty has split with her boyfriend of two years, Nick Loeb, according to The New York Post, which cites sources who say the couple argued all weekend before pulling the plug on its relationship. Vergara proceeded to attend Monday’s Met Ball in New York City alone. “Sofia was confiding in friends at the ball that she and Nick have split ,” an insider tells the newspaper. “They have been fighting a lot recently and have been on the brink of splitting many times. It is not yet clear if they are over for good, but they are done as a couple for now.” Loeb is the grandson of one of the Lehman brothers and served as a partner in his family’s firm until it went under as part of the financial crisis. He met the actress at a Golden Globes party in 2010. [Photo: WENN.com]

John Edwards: In Love With Rielle Hunter?

John Edwards has never spoken publicly about his feelings for Rielle Hunter , but thanks to his federal corruption trial, plenty of other people are. His former speechwriter, Wendy Button, testified Tuesday. She said Edwards admitted he loved Hunter, though the relationship was “complicated.” Edwards spoke about Hunter when answering mock questions as he practiced what he would say when admitting he fathered Rielle’s love child. “Do you love Rielle?” Button testified she asked Edwards. With Button playing the role of a reporter, the two-time presidential hopeful said, “Yes, it’s complicated.” This was July 2009, according to Button. “Do you still see her?” Button also asked. “‘Yes, she’s the mother of my child,'” Button says John replied. “Is the affair still going on?” she asked. “You’re not entitled to all the details,” Edwards answered . Those questions are ones Edwards, 58, could be asked again if he takes the stand at his trial. The former U.S. Senator is charged with covering up the affair and love child with the help of illegal campaign contributions from wealthy donors. The packed courtroom was riveted as Button took the stand about her conversations with Edwards in July of 2009, when she offered to help him draft a statement admitting he fathered Hunter’s daughter, Frances Quinn, now 4. Last month, Edwards’ former aide Andrew Young said when the politician learned Hunter was pregnant, he reacted by saying “She’s a ‘ crazy slut .'” Young testified that Edwards said, “There’s a one-in-three chance [the child] was his.” John, who was married to the terminally ill Elizabeth Edwards at the time, vehemently denied, but later confirmed his paternity of the child. His adult daughter, Cate Edwards , was so upset by some of the revelations at his trial that she walked out in tears at one point last week.

Jessica Alba Shopping with a Friend in a Little Dress of the Day

There are two hot things going on here that I like…. One is that happily married chicks are porno to me….especially when they are as hot as Jessica Alba….because there is no such thing as happily married…and the slight chance that she’d cheat on her husand inspires me…cuz dating married chicks is like dating the terminally ill…it is short lived and full of passion…so you never get locked in or really have to deal with the bullshit….cuz everyone knows where they stand and that it is all just about fucking before it is too late… The other is the hot friend who isn’t Jessica Alba but who wants to be and every night asks herself why she wasn’t so lucky…resenting her everytime they hang but using it as a chance to out dress her and show off her body that didn’t have two kids so that all eyes are on her for once….It is the competitive nature of being a woman….a competitive nature that I know fucks with this girl’s self esteem hard…and makes her willing to fuck subpar men to feel good about herself…and that works for me….in fact that’s the only reason I’ve had sex.

Sam Riley on Brighton Rock and His Arduous Trip On the Road

Back in 2007, Sam Riley burst on the scene with a starmaking performance in the critically acclaimed film Control . Poised to be the latest hot British import to invade U.S. shores, Riley followed Control up with two intriguing-on-paper titles — Franklyn with Ryan Phillippe and Eva Green and 13 opposite Ray Winstone, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham, Michael Shannon and Alexander Skarsgaard. The rest, as they say, is history — though maybe not the kind Riley initially envisioned.
