Brittany Maynard Ends Own Life; Cancer Patient Was 29 Years Old

Brittany Maynard chose to end her own life today. The 29-year old has made headlines over the past few months for taking advantage of Oregon’s Death with Dignity Act, which allows one to take a fatal dose of barbiturates (prescribed by a doctor) in the case of a life-threatening disease. Maynard was told by physicians last spring that she had Stage 4 glioblastoma and would likely pass away within six months. Wrote Maynard in a Facebook post today before making her fatal decision: “Goodbye to all my dear friends and family that I love. Today is the day I have chosen to pass away with dignity in the face of my terminal illness, this terrible brain cancer that has taken so much from me … but would have taken so much more. “The world is a beautiful place, travel has been my greatest teacher, my close friends and folks are the greatest givers. I even have a ring of support around my bed as I type … Goodbye world. Spread good energy. Pay it forward!” On October 6, Maynard launched an online video campaign with Compassion & Choices, an end-of-life choice advocacy organization, to fight for expanding death with dignity laws around the country. Maynard spent the final months traveling to Alaska, British Colombia and Yellowstone National Park with her loved ones. “For me what matters most is the way I’m remembered by my family and my husband as a good woman who did my best to be a good wife and a good daughter,” Maynard told People last month, adding: “Beyond that, getting involved with this campaign, I hope to be making a difference here. If I’m leaving a legacy, it’s to change this health-care policy or be a part of this change of this health care policy so it becomes available to all Americans. That would be an enormous contribution to make, even if I’m just a piece of it.” May Emily Maynard rest in peace. Celebrities We Lost in 2014 1. Philip Seymour Hoffman R.I.P.

Holly Hagan’s Funbags Are Must-See TV

Because no week would be complete without at least one busty British nobody sighting, here’s Holly Hagan , aka the British JWoww , presenting Zoo Magazine ‘s TV issue. I know that the Brits dig their reality stars even more than we do and after seeing Holly, I think you’ll be able to understand why. Although if you ask me, the small screen is a total waste of Holly’s talents, because a set of funbags this epic deserves to be seen on the biggest screen possible. Until then though, I’ve found that putting your nose a couple inches from your computer screen works almost as well. And best of all, no one needs to get the manager to make you put your pants back on. It’s a real win-win. » view all 12 photos

Jesus Take The Scalpel: British Woman Teased For Her Flat Cakes Dies While Getting Butt-Enhancement Surgery In Thailand

Are big backs really worth putting your life on the line ? British Woman Dies From Butt Augmentation Surgery Via DailyMail : The family of a British girl who died while having cut-price plastic surgery in Thailand have revealed that they didn’t know she had gone abroad. Joy Williams, 23, from Thamesmead, was described as a ‘caring and funny’ girl who was ‘loved by everybody. She died on October 23 after travelling to Bangkok to have £2,000 buttock augmentation surgery. Speaking yesterday from his home in Lagos, Nigeria, Miss Williams’s older brother Anietie, 28, said he had been looking forward to her visiting him in Nigeria this Christmas. He said: ‘We don’t really know what went wrong, we only know what is in reports in the media. Miss Williams, who was born in Lagos, settled in Thamesmead with her mother Christie in 2007 and had been to Thailand twice before choosing to visit for surgery. She initially visited the SP clinic, which she found on the internet, on October 14 to have the operation which she hoped would give her a bigger, fuller bottom. A few days later her wounds became infected and she returned to have corrective surgery to remove the silicon implants. But she was found dead on the operating table with a three inch-long stitched incision on her tail bone after medical staff found they were unable to resuscitate her. Thai officials investigating her death believe her operation had been delayed to ensure Miss Williams had not eaten anything beforehand and that as a result the operation began after the clinic’s legal closing time of 7pm. It is believed Miss Williams had long struggled with her self-esteem and been bullied at school before choosing to undergo an operation on her nose to improve her looks. While in Bangkok she had been staying at the £11-a-night Vabua Asotel hotel which is used by the clinic as accommodation for its patients. The doctor who carried out the procedure, Sompob Sansiri, 51, was later arrested and accused of negligence after it was found that he had been carrying out night-time surgery without a licence. He has now been charged with recklessness causing death and could face 10 years in jail if found guilty. We’ve said it time and time again…switching out that flatty for a fatty is NOT worth risking your life!

Sara Malakul for Thai Playboy of the Day

Her name is Sara Malakul – I like to think that I invented her – but in reality some white dude in Thailand who was trying to learn about “Thai Culture” by knocking up a Thai local did it first.. back in the 80s…. She is more than just a huge internet star with her 200,000 fans…but she’s also a model and actress who has done campaigns, actual movies, and Netflix movies…and I think she’s quite lovley… Here she is for Thai Playboy, where she’s not showing her vagina, because Thai Playboy has a now genital showing policy, since all the hot girls from Thailand actually have cocks….it’s a cultural thing…as is prostituting yourself out at 11 years old to pay for the rice for the family – thanks to nice rich British perverts on some Sex Toursim shit… All this to say, she’s one to look out for….the kind of girl that if you found out she was born a dude – you’d still want to marry her…and that’s a pretty powerful kind of girl to be…

Kate Walsh’s Nude Suit Is Lame

I don’t watch a whole lot of TV, unless you count fast-forwarding through Modern Family for the Sofia Vergara cleavage, so I didn’t know that Kate Walsh was on some new show called Bad Judge until seeing her filming scenes on the beach. And I think this might be one of the most offensive things I’ve ever seen on TV. And no, I don’t mean the fact that they’d have her character get naked on primetime, that’s Emmy-worthy. I meant that they’d have the audacity to fake it with such a lame nude suit. I mean, c’mon. What ever happened to method acting? » view all 11 photos Photos: PacificCoastNews Continue reading

Abigail Clancy Makes One Sexy Nurse

Here’s one of my original favorite British hotties Abigail Clancy out at an Agent Provocateur charity event for breast cancer awareness in London. And don’t worry, I may be a professional blogger, but even I’m not low enough to make a dumb joke about a good cause. Instead, I’ll just say that I’m loving the sexy nurse look on Abbey, and if she’s willing, I think it’s about time for my next physical. Some people only go once a year, but if more nurses looked like this, I have a feeling we’d all be getting monthly hernia checks. I know I would. » view all 22 photos Photos: WENN.com Continue reading

Justin Bieber: Trying to Win Selena Gomez Back With Mom & Alfredo Flores Helping?

The 104th reconciliation of Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez fizzled earlier this month, and Selena has been doing her best to move on with her life. But Justin, forever motivated to win her back, only to drive her away again, has enlisted his mom and his best friend to continue the cycle once more. Pattie Mallette and Alfredo Flores are both putting the screws to Gomez, so to speak, in hopes that Justin may screw her in a different sense soon. If you know wheat we mean! EDITOR’S NOTE: We mean raw, unprotected sex . “Selena loves Justin’s mom so he knows that she’s not going to ignore her calls,” a source said. “Pattie loves it when Selena and Justin are together.” “She knows how happy and grounded it makes Justin. He lives a healthy life when he’s with Selena so of course his mom wants to see them get back together.’ “She’s [gotten them] together before so if anyone can do it this time, she can.” To that end (maybe), Pattie Tweeted earlier today: “Every conflict is an opportunity to grow. #StayTender #ForgiveQuickly #communicate #LoveWins.” Oh man, that settles it, then! Selena and Justin MUST BE TOGETHER!! As for his other accomplice, we know Alfredo Flores was dispatched to We Day to make sure Selena Gomez and Orlando Bloom aren’t together. Okay, maybe not, but he was there, and stayed close to her with a mission. “Alfredo was telling Selena how much Justin misses her, showing her texts from Justin and telling her she got it all wrong, that kind of thing,” a source said. “Justin wants her back. He’s got everyone helping him make it happen.” Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez Pictures: Young, Star-Crossed Love 1. Justin Bieber With Selena Gomez Photo Justin Bieber loves him some Selena Gomez. Just see these pics from happier times and you’ll know it. Of course, Justin’s banging Barbara Palvin to make her jealous, too, if you believe another interesting tabloid rumor from the past week, so who knows. With this goon, only two things are certain: Dude will wear a shirt as little as humanly possible, except when he plays hockey, as that requires a lot of gear (he has sick hockey skills). He will always try to slip one between the pads, and we’re not talking about hockey. Although as we said, he has sick hockey skills. What do you think: Should Justin and Selena get back together?   Yes, they are meant to be! No, he doesn’t deserve her! No, she doesn’t deserve him! View Poll »

Kate Middleton Wardrobe Malfunction Reportedly Angers Queen Elizabeth II

After nearly ten weeks of lying low due to health issues, Kate Middleton made her first public appearance since early August on Tuesday when she turned out to welcome the president of Singapore during his visit to London. Kate’s been suffering from severe morning sickness , as the result of a condition known as Hyperemesis Gravidarum. She’s had to cancel several appearances, but forced herself to rally on Tueday, reportedly because she was concerned about the opinions of the public and and the rest of the royal family. Now it seems that the effort may have backfired, as insiders say Queen Elizabeth II is fuming about a minor wardrobe malfunction on Kate’s part. That’s Kate awaiting President Tony Tan’s arrival at the London Royal Garden Hotel. Sources say she struggled to keep her dress down in high winds and the crowd occasionally caught glimpses of her thigh. Yes, that’s it. Nowhere near as bad as the Kate Middleton upskirt photos that wound up in a German tabloid and prompted comparisons between the Duchess and the Kardashians. Even so, British tabloids are reporting that an anonymous source claims both the Queen and Camilla Parker-Bowles spoke with Kate afterward about being more careful in her wardrobe selections. Of course, it’s entirely possible that the rumor is utter BS and no one in the royal family even noticed the minor Marilyn moment, but even so, Kate might want to start investing in some sporty pantsuits. Kate Middleton: Pregnant in Public! 1. Kate Middleton Returns to Public Life Kate Middleton made her first public appearance in over two months today. The Duchess helped welcome the president of Singapore to Buckingham Palace.

Rosie O’Donnell Wonders: Might John Grisham Be Into Child Porn?

John Grisham chose a somewhat odd cause to get behind this week. In an interview with The Telegraph, the best-selling author brought up the topic of child pornography purveyors and said the following: “We have prisons now filled with guys my age… who’ve never harmed anybody, would never touch a child, but they got online one night, started surfing around, probably had too much to drink or whatever, pushed the wrong buttons, went too far, and got into child porn.” Rosie O’Donnell Slams John Grisham Amidst an understandable uproar once the remarks went viral, Grisham then issued an apology and an explanation. “Anyone who harms a child for profit or pleasure, or who in any way participates in child pornography – online or otherwise – should be punished to the fullest extent of the law,” Grisham said. He continued: “My comments made two days ago during an interview with the British newspaper The Telegraph were in no way intended to show sympathy for those convicted of sex crimes, especially the sexual molestation of children. I can think of nothing more despicable. I regret having made these comments, and apologize to all.” But Rosie O’Donnell wasn’t satisfied with this mea culpa during the opening segment of The View today. “I accept your apology but I don’t believe in your [expletive] bull crap thing that you said before,” O’Donnell said. “Nobody accidentally stumbles onto child pornography.” O’Donnell then alleged that Grisham must only know what he’s talking about from experience. “If I were the police, I’d look at John Grisham‘s hard drive right now,” she said. And, at that, co-panelist Whoopi Goldberg took the show to a commercial break. What do you think of Grisham’s original comments and O’Donnell’s response? Did she cross a line in practically calling John Grisham a child porn lover? Or did Grisham deserve it for having defended these purveyors in the first place?
