Anytime Kelly Brook gets herself in a bikini is a good day in my books. However, sometimes using an Instagram filter isn’t always the best choice. I’m sure thee main pic would have come out better without it. I know I’m being picky, but I want to see Kelly’s cleavage in HQ. Anyway, I’m glad that Kelly is using social media properly and let’s hope she uploads more bikini photos soon.

Dear Bossip , I broke up with my ex well over a year ago; and we are both in our 40’s. It wasn’t a messy break up; we basically drifted apart and went our separate ways. One of the reasons I started to drift away from him was that while he pursued me, he went above and beyond to get my attention and “make me his.” About 7 months after he “got” me, his efforts to “keep me” began to slack off to the point where I started to feel like perhaps he was seeing someone else. I didn’t really care about that, though, because by this point, I wanted him to leave me alone (you’ll understand why in a minute), so I let the drifting apart continue and we eventually stopped contacting each other totally. Well, lo and behold, he’s started calling/texting me again. After not responding back at first, I decided to say hi via text because honestly, he’s a nice guy, we had loads of fun together (except for the problem I’m about to mention) and I wouldn’t mind us hanging out on a platonic level, but he wants more and here’s where the problem comes in. During the time we were together, his sex was WACK. And I hate to say it like that, but it is what it is. When we talked before dating, I hadn’t been with anyone sexually in over a year, so by the time we had dated for about 2 months, my glands were ready to see if what he kept talking about in regard to his skills was true, and oh my goodness!!! It wasn’t . I tried introducing things into the mix–nothing freaky because I just wanted to see if he was at least good with the basics. He was fine with me showing him how to keep me “revved up”, but after that, I didn’t expect to have to show him all of the time, but that’s what it turned into. Everything else between us was alright; not perfect, of course, but I couldn’t get past this issue right here because it seemed like the sex part of the relationship was more for his pleasure and not for both of us. Now that he’s starting to bark up my tree again, I want to relay to him that we will not be dating like that again and why. I’ve already expressed that I didn’t want to date him again, but along with repeated invitations to dinner and drinks that I keep declining, he keeps pushing me for a reason why I don’t want to date him again-which is totally understandable. But how in the world do I tell this man that he does not satisfy me sexually without crushing his ego? I don’t want to be mean; I just want a way to relay this to him without hurting his feelings; which may be too much to ask for. Any suggestions? – The Whole-Package-Seeker Dear Ms. The Whole-Package-Seeker , Well, you gave it the good run the first time around. However, you drifted apart. He didn’t satisfy you sexually, and as you stated, “I wanted him to leave me alone.” So, my question to you is if you wanted him to leave you alone, then why did you answer his text? Why did you start this communication up with him again? If you weren’t friends before you started dating, then why do you think you can be ‘platonic’ friends now? That doesn’t make sense. It was a 7-month relationship that fizzled out faster than it started. Ma’am, don’t go back. He’s an ex for a reason. And, you’re smart and savvy enough to know why he’s an ex. So, stop entertaining him, and playing with this man! Ugh! But, the real Tee-Hee-Hee-Hee-Hee-Hee is that you like him chasing after you. You like him pursuing you, begging you, and running behind you. You are enjoying this attention because I’m sure he is the only man giving you any attention right about now. So, because you have nothing else to do, or better yet, you have no one else occupying your time and slaying your walls, you’re entertaining your ex! Don’t play with me this morning! I’m not your ex. These little games of “I don’t want him and he keeps calling me, and I don’t know how to tell him that I don’t want to be with him because he didn’t satisfy me in the bedroom,” is all Bull-ish! You’re a grown a** 40-something year old woman. I am quite certain you know how to articulate with your Big Adult Words, and express yourself. So, I want you to Stop it! Stop this behavior right now and grow the damn hell up! Because trust and believe, if you had a man in your life, you know, Mr. Total-Package, and he was blowing your back out, and servicing your every need, giving you the “D” in the morning and at night, you wouldn’t have time to be stringing your ex along. Your focus will be on Mr. Total-Package and looking forward to what new position, and how many orgasms he’ll be giving you. BOOM! BAM! POW! Look here, your ex has not changed. The man he was in the relationship with you, he will be the same man as a platonic friend. BORING and GETTING ON YOUR NERVES! And, from what you’ve shared about him, he is repeating the same behaviors he did to get you the first time. He is chasing after you, wearing you down until you finally give in. You don’t see this pattern?!? HELLO! Ma’am, you can’t be friends with this man. He will not be your friend. He is not interested in being friends. He wants to strike up a relationship with you again, and unfortunately you both left the relationship for various reasons, yet, you didn’t have any closure. So, with no proper closure, he figured it was an open door to return. This is the opportunity to close the door for good, and be honest with him. I know you don’t want to hurt his feelings, and you don’t have to. Just be honest with him and say, “Look, you’re a great guy. You deserve to be with a woman who will love you and give you what you deserve. However, I am not that woman. I have needs, desires, and wants. Unfortunately, in our relationship I found that our sex life was not satisfying for me. I attempted to introduce you to various things, and ways of how to please me, and it was apparent that we were not sexually compatible. I think it’s best we simply part ways. I wish you the best.” You see how easy that is? Instead of stringing this man along for another several months, playing with him, toying with him and giving him some hope of reconciliation, you just end it. If you don’t end this relationship, close this door, and move on, then unfortunately, Boo Boo, your Mr. Whole-Total-Package won’t be able to come into your life because you’re still holding on to Mr. Didn’t-Satisfy-Me. And, no man wants to enter into a woman’s life with another man lingering around in the margins. So, end it. Stop playing with him, and seeking his attention. Give him closure. Be honest and truthful with him and yourself. And move on! – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think? Share your opinions and thoughts below!

Lawd Jesus it’s an exorcism . Catholic Church Gives Exorcism Training According to Raw Story Catholics in and around Madrid concerned that they or their loved ones are suffering from demonic possession may be about to get some much needed assistance from the archdiocese. A spokeswoman confirmed to the Associated Press that the Church in considering training more priests in the exorcism rites to counter increasing demand for its one trained priest’s time. The spokewoman, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told the AP, “The devil exists. That’s a fact.” News of the exorcists-in-training was first reported by the Spanish-language Catholic site Religion en libertad, which claims there are eight priests currently in training to learn how to perform exorcisms based on the De Exorcismus et supplicationibus quibusdam, approved by Pope John Paul II in 1998, which replaced the exorcism rites first published in 1614. Catholic World News described the new rite in 1999: The liturgical ritual itself is centered on supplicatory prayers, asking for God’s help, and “imperative” prayers addressed directly to the Devil, commanding him to depart. The prayers are to be said as the exorcist lays his hand on the individual, and are part of an overall ritual which includes specific blessings and sprinklings with holy water. The ritual also includes the litany of the saints, the reading of the Psalms and the Gospel, and a proclamation of faith which may be either the familiar Creed or a simple question-and-answer (“Do you renounce Satan? I do.”). The ritual concludes with the kissing of the Cross, and the final prayer, proclaiming the triumph of Christ and his Church. ReL’s Álex Rosal reports that the eight candidates are additionally studying the 1614 rites as well as the so-called Roman Ritual of 1952, which served as a bridge between the older rites and the final liturgical version issued in 1998. Candidates are also said to be reading the books of Father Gabriele Amorth, the Vatican’s chief exorcist and a controversial figure in his own right. Rosal further reports that there are eight candidates to correspond to each of the eight dioceses, and decisions may be made with the input of local psychiatrists to rule out mental illness and drug abuse before beginning an exorcism. Spanish website The Local reports that there are only 18 registered exorcists in Spain, the most famous and active of which is, according to exorcism expert and author José María Zavala, Father Salvador Hernández Ramón, who reportedly studied under Amorth in Rome. The training itself is reportedly being led by Bishop Cesar Franco. Some of these beyotches in America need an exorcism to exercise that demon they got stuck up their a**.

This book is almost too awesome for me to put into words. I’ve long been a fan of the Legend of Zelda. It is not only my personal favorite video game series, but arguably the greatest series in video gaming, period. When this book released in Japan for Zelda’s 25 year anniversary, many hoped it would get translated and come to the States. Thankfully, our wish has been granted. This book is about as high-quality as they come. The opening letter from Shigeru Miyamoto sets a wonderful, celebrato
I lived blissfully unaware of just how bad so many of our products are until my youngest was born and we discovered he had vicious allergies and asthma right from the start. It took going through a lot of doctors to find anyone even remotely interested in finding the problem instead of just masking symptoms with chemical creams and steroids. And this was back before allergens had to be clearly listed on labels. I spent countless sleepless nights on research and turning my house and our lives
Dear Bossip , I am almost 26-years old and have been married to my husband for 5 years. He works night shifts and we hardly do anything together because he’s sleeping during the day because of his work schedule. We have a 3-year old together. Lately, I was having dreams of an ex from years ago. He was my first real boyfriend at age 18. I felt like I really missed him so I contacted him, and we text and talk daily. I miss what we had. I was thinking of an open relationship, but don’t know how to tell my husband. I am so confused. Can you guide me the right way and what do you think I should do? – Confused Woman Dear Ms. Confused Woman , So, let me make sure I’m hearing you correctly: You want to approach your husband and tell him that you want an open relationship because you miss what you had with an ex-boyfriend from when you were 18 years old. Yeah, you do that. I’ll wait on the next letter from you, that’s if you’ll be able to write from your coma. SMDH! Chile, here we go! I swear you folks will displace your emotions and feelings and blame the other person for what they are not doing, and you are a huge contributing factor of what’s the problem in your marriage. You won’t express yourselves, be honest, or truthful with your mates, and you don’t know how to express what you want, need, and desire. You don’t know how to use your words properly. You only create arguments, and when you’re not being heard, you do what you’re doing and that is seek out the attention of another because, “They understand me. They get me.” GROW THE DAMN HELL UP! In reality what is really going on is that you’re missing your husband’s affection and attention. You’re missing the intimacy with your husband because he works nights and is tired when he comes home and sleeps during the day. Therefore, because you won’t express to your husband what you’re feeling, and how it makes you feel undesirable, unwanted, and unloved, you’ve reached out to an ex-boyfriend to fulfill these desires. Instead of going to your husband to fulfill your desires and needs, you want to ask him for an open relationship so you can get what you want. Does that make any logical sense to you? Really? Does it? You’re trying to reenact a relationship from when you were 18-years old. Ma’am, you’re 26-years old, and you’re still thinking about a relationship you had when you were 18-years old. Therein lies the problem. You’re trying to recapture the past to make it your present. Eight years have gone by, yet, you’re still living in the past attempting to make it your present day reality. Sweetie, you’re married with a 3-year old child. Is it worth it to bring in another man into your marriage? Is it worth it to destroy your marriage, unravel what you’re building, and dismantle your family because you want an affair? All because you want intimacy, desire, and to feel loved, wanted, and needed. Wouldn’t it make more sense to go to your husband and say, “Honey, I know you work nights. I appreciate all that you do for our family. You work hard. You go above and beyond to make sure that we won’t go without. You care for us. You take good care of your child. You’re a real man and that is why I married you. However, I want to share with you that lately I’ve been feeling unwanted. I’ve been feeling unneeded, and undesirable. I need some intimate time with you. I want to spend some quality time with you as a family, and feel your presence. I know you’re tired when you get home, but is it possible that you can make an effort to consider my needs, my wants, and my desires. I want to make you feel like a man, and you want you to make me feel like a woman. Can we work on that as a team?” Now, I’m sure your husband would respond positively and would make an effort. But, you’ve got to work together. Hell, the man works nights. He’s tired when he comes home and you’re up and going a hundred miles an hour because you’ve slept and rested your body. He hasn’t had the time to rest and heal his body from an 8 or 12 hour shift. So, work together. Instead of being so dramatic and selfish, and wanting to ask for an open relationship, don’t be surprised if he responds negatively, and splits your damn wig! How about you stop communicating with your ex. You’re a married woman. You have a family. Focus on your family, and building what you’ve signed on for. End the communication and contact before it goes too far and you there is no coming back. You’ll find yourself losing everything – your child, and your husband. So, don’t fall back into your trifling, nasty, and hoe-ish ways. I’m not saying you are, but what you’re describing sounds like it. Communicate openly and honestly with your husband about your needs, desires, and wants. I’m sure you can resolve what you really want and get what you both need. – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think? Share your opinions and thoughts below!

A longstanding gig will keep Sandra Bernhard from attending the Tribeca Film Festival’s closing-night screening of The King of Comedy on April 27, but it’s not like she needs her memory jogged. The comedienne recalls that making Martin Scorsese’s prescient and oh-so-dark 1982 comedy about a deluded stand-up comic ( Robert De Niro ) who kidnaps his favorite talk-show host ( Jerry Lewis ), was a “coming-of-age experience that left me a changed person.” Talk about a breakthrough. Bernhard played Masha, an obsessed and similarly deluded fan of Lewis’ Jerry Langford character, who after helping to carry out the the kidnapping, entertained the duct-taped Langford in her bra and panties. Great comedy is often deeply unsettling, and Bernhard’s portrayal of Masha is so unabashedly off the wall that she left movie audiences squirming and Jerry Lewis genuinely aghast. It’s one of the purest comic performances captured on film. Here’s a little taste: The Monster Masha I talked with Bernhard about her experience making the movie, her scene with three-fourths of the British punk band the Clash , and her thoughts on whether a movie as prescient as The King of Comedy could be re-made at a time when the world is full of Rupert Pupkins and Mashas. Movieline: Let’s start with all the talent you beat out for the role of Masha. You’ve talked about how Debra Winger and Ellen Barkin were in the running, but Meryl Streep wanted that part as well. Any others that come to mind? Sandra Bernhard: I had heard that as well. So many people were up for that role, but I don’t know who exactly because they obviously didn’t tell me. I only knew about Ellen because I heard from her directly. I know that the part kind of came down to me and another actress, but I don’t remember who it was. Somebody did tell me at one point but it wasn’t anybody really compelling. How has the movie’s meaning for you changed over the years? I haven’t seen the movie in a long time. How many times can you watch yourself, you know? It’s uncomfortable. I am curious to see it again all cleaned up and restored. The film was so representative of an era in filmmaking when people would take their time in a scene. It wasn’t a case of rush, rush, rush onto the next moment. You had room to breathe, and I think that in itself made people uncomfortable because the topic was so weird and out of left field at the time. Now, expectations of fame and desire run so extreme that the film almost seems tame in comparison, but there’s still something about The King of Comedy that’s very disarming and offbeat and something you’ll never see again. And so those are the emotions I feel. It was very evocative. I agree. One of the reasons the film is so memorable is the way the camera lingers on the discomfort that you and De Niro create in your scenes. It’s very visceral and pure in a way. Exactly. All of this extreme in-your-face social media doesn’t really have any impact because it doesn’t breathe. You don’t have to stay with it. As quickly as you look at it, it’s gone. This film has resonance and depth. It’s made of earth and mud and shit — stuff that sticks to you. And yet, for a film that observes the old rules of filmmaking, it’s pretty prescient when you consider the celebrity-obsessed moment we’re now experiencing. Yes, but even though it was predicting where things were going to go, it did so in a much more human, relatable way that we’ve lost in the inception of all the things that The King of Comedy predicted. Do you think this movie could be made or remade today? No way. At one point, Jack Black wanted to remake it, and I was like — I mean I love him, he’s fabulous, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t think it would have worked. It’s too late to remake it. We’re here and there’s nothing to really predict. It’s just an ongoing conversation you have every day of the week like, “Can you believe he’s famous?” There’s nothing to say about it. We’re in the middle of it. Scorsese has said making the film was very difficult and trying because of the subject matter, and he and De Niro didn’t work together again until 1989 for Goodfellas . Was that evident when you were filming? I don’t remember it being that way, but I think Marty puts a lot of his own intellectual and emotional weight into everything he does. He’s a brooding kind of person and I think that things get under his skin and affect him. I’m so the opposite. I just go and do it, and then I pull out of it. I try not to stay with the feelings. Maybe it shook him up in a way that didn’t affect me. When it’s your film and you’re making it, you’ve got a lot more at stake. Do you have one particularly memorable moment of him directing you. Did you crack Scorsese up? I cracked him up more than once, but I think the most important thing I learned from working with him was keep to things very small. I was used to working on stage where everything needs to be big and gesticulated and over-the-top. Whereas, when you’re making a movie, the littlest nuance and the littlest emotion are read very easily when the camera is right there in your face. So he would always tell me, “tone it down.” Your performance is very real and that makes the movie all the more unsettling. I remember flinching while watching the film and thinking, “This is so intense.” It was, and in order to not, like, completely shatter the screen, there had to be a little bit of holding back. You have a scene where you tangle with members of the Clash in the movie: Paul Simonon, Mick Jones and the late Joe Strummer. How did that happen? Marty was a big fan of theirs, and I think they were in town doing something and he just got them to do the scene. We shot that in front of the Colony Records on a very, very hot day — sometime in July. It was nuts. They were just smoking and leaning against the place, you know, talking to me, and I said: “look at the street trash….” It was crazy. Did De Niro or Lewis give you any guidance on the set? Well, Jerry loves to direct. Whereas he is not as magnanimous as the rest of them, he would still acknowledge a powerful scene or a great moment by his reaction. He would register total fear and shock while sitting across the table from this lunatic Jewish girl. He had never seen anything like me. In that respect, the movie also represents a real moment in comedy: you’ve got Lewis, the old guard, starring opposite you, who was satirizing his brand of Vaudevillian comedy in your nightclub act. Absolutely. There couldn’t have been two more disparate worlds than the ones Jerry Lewis and I inhabited in 1981 when we shot the picture. Jerry had never been in a movie with a lady like me. I was deconstructing self-deprecating female comedy and the kind of dusty shtick of that generation — my father’s generation. I think that was another reason they liked me for the role: I brought that new avant-garde attitude to the whole thing. Did you improvise the entire dinner scene with Lewis? There were parameters — points that I needed to get to throughout the scene — but Marty wanted me to bring some of the act I was doing at a time into it, and he just let me go. I was supposed to be this crazy character who was on her own in the world. And I just tapped into who I was at the time and let it fly. Both Masha and Rupert are incredibly self-involved characters seeking fame and attention. All these years later, it feels like a world of Mashas and Ruperts is being spawned before our eyes. That certainly was the most prescient part of the movie when you look at it now. But at least they were interesting, complex characters. Now they’re just morons. I’d do anything to see anybody as interesting as the two of us, God forbid. Look at the crap on all the different websites and the blogs. It’s like, sorry, you’re not cutting the mustard. You have nothing to add to this conversation.Can it. Will you be in attendance on closing night? I can’t be there because I’m performing in Pittsburgh in association with the Andy Warhol Museum . The gig has been on the books for six months now. They wouldn’t let me out of the gig so I said, at least I had more than 15 minutes of fame . Last question. What are you doing next? I’m on the road doing my one-woman shows. I’m in the middle of trying to set up this TV series for myself and another actress, but I don’t want to talk about it as this stage. And I’m shooting a little independent small film in Brooklyn in the fall called Love in Brooklyn . It’s a cute film that supposed to take place in the ‘80s. It has a dance vibe to it.

I had the chance to sit down with Skid Row star, Celebrity Sex Addict Star, Vivid Porn director and Star, and Now Author Phil Varone and ask him 10 questions… If I had more time I would have gone into how much of a con artist and scam that Dr Drew murderer and opportunist is. Here’s what he had to say. 1- Was being a rockstar like being a pornstar but without the cameras? A Rock Star is a little different to say the least. The funny part is, we always had cameras around us when being in a band. I think both industries are very much the same and a lot different as well. 2- What industry has more morals, the music industry or the porn industry? The Adult industry for sure. The music industry was loaded with thieves and liars. Being young and new years ago, I was ripped off for my whole career. 3- How many women have you been with? It’s hard to say, but in the thousands for sure. 4- I’ve been to swingers clubs many times, and the women are all old and fat and something I wouldn’t have sex with if I had standards, how did you find swingers worth looking at for your movies? Well, I think that’s a stereotype when it comes to swinging. There is a new generation of swingers and they are young, very attractive and full of energy. I’m a member of a few swinger sites and that’s how I meet them. 5- You were on the Dr Drew Sex Addicts show, Is being on camera just the next level in sex addiction. I don’t identify as a sex addict. I did the show to be on TV and like any other show on TV, they were casting people to try to make it interesting. I was the token Rock Star that slept with a bunch of groupies. 6- I read that you are back out touring with your old band Saigon Kick, where can we find out where we can see you guys perform or am I asking too late? We just finished the first run of 5 shows. These were test shows to see if the fans where still there and if the band could actually get along. It was a very successful run so there might be some shows in the future. 7. Do you still have groupies that show up for performances? There are groupies, but nothing like the old days. I’m shooting a series for Vivid called groupies, so that will be a fun one that takes you back stage and the viewer will see how I try to score. 8. What’s the name of your latest movie from Vivid and what is it about? It’s called 100% Real Swinger Series –Big Bear. I loaded up an RV with swingers and rented a cabin for the weekend. That one is very fun!!! 9. How do you maintain a solid personal relationship as a swinger? Well, swinging is a lifestyle and my gf is in the lifestyle as well. It’s the only way I would have it. 10. I understand that your memoirs are about to be published.What’s the title and when can we get copies? The book is called UN-Philtered – REAL LIFE ON AND OFF THE ROCK ‘N ROLL TOUR BUS. Anyone can get ebook copies by going on RIVERDALE AVENUE BOOKS
