Posted on November 10, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Some Beyonce fans really don’t like her being associated with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, apparently. They have even gone so far as to start a petition. To stop the singer from attending Kimye’s wedding, naturally. A Change (dot) org petition entitled “BEYONCE CANNOT ATTEND KIM KARDASHIAN’S WEDDING” was created last week by a man named John Barry. Beyonce Fans Petition to Keep Her From Kimye Wedding “As you all know by now Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have been in the news for their ‘engagement,'” read the petition, lamenting that ” Kim Kardashian and her disgusting family are known for their rise to fame for doing absolutely nothing.” This is true. But acknowledging it isn’t enough for Barry. “Now we must do all in our power to stop Beyonce from attending that god forsaken [sic] wedding, since her husband Jay Z is BFFs with Kanye he problaby [sic] wants both of them to go…” Probably. Barry offered some excuses the superstar could use Extending The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour Saying Blue Ivy came down with something Simply having something better to do. Whatever she chooses as her out, “Your [sic] Beyonce you always have something better to do than to attend a Kim Kardashian wedding,” the petition reads. There’s little change Beyonce would oblige, despite populate support. In addition to ‘Ye’s close bond with her husband, Beyonce has been quite nice to Kim Kardashian. In June, after the birth of North West , she offered her congratulations on Tumblr. Multiple reports have even claimed Beyonce and Kim both “love each other.” By Saturday, the petition had received more than 300 signatures in support. UPDATE : The creator has pulled the petition, saying it was all just a joke: “IT WAS A JOKE I DONT CARE IF BEYONCE GOES OR NOT SHE’S A GROWN WOMAN!!” Well, he must have cared at least a little bit if he thought of this …

Entertainment Industry Insider Marcus “Quest” Sims Releases Soul-Baring Memoir “I’m Naked And Tired Vol. 1″

Posted on October 28, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Marcus Sims has one helluva story… When 12 year industry veteran Marcus “Quest” Sims first announced plans to release his memoir, most people eagerly anticipated a “who-slept-with-who, drug addiction-fueled, tell all. But “Quest” shocked readers with his work “I’m Naked And Tired”. Instead of a salacious confessional “I’m Naked and Tired” is a raw and uncensored take on Quest’s look at life, failure, pain, and redemption. Says Quest: “I could have given people what they think they wanted and done the whole pull the curtain back on people’s lives, but that’s not me I wasn’t going to dry snitch for personal gain. I wanted people to know what I had been through, what shapes the way I see the world, and why I am what I am. My hope is that if someone else see’s what I went thru, and am still going thru, then maybe I can save someone’s life” You can download the book for free HERE When asked why free Quest says: “My editor was so mad, but they were taking to long to get it out. I’m not worried about the money I had a story to tell. I have a lot of wrongs to answer for and try to atone for, so I just woke up and decided to give the people my soul” Here is a moving excerpt from the book: When my grandmother was in the hospital, as much as I didn’t want to admit it, I knew there was a chance she wouldn’t make it, when I got the call that TJ shot himself but was in critical condition, I wanted him to recover, but I knew that it was a strong chance he wouldn’t, and what if he had? I mean he did just put a bullet in his head, surely something in his life was so bad that he wanted to end it, so how selfish of me would it have been to only think “he’s going to get better”, maybe the best thing for him to do was to go to heaven, at least there the problems and pain he was dealing with couldn’t get to him If you or someone you know is going through a dark period in their life, then this book is definitely a must read!

Posted on October 19, 2013 by Benny Hollywood

See what doin’ good can get ya? Ellen Degeneres Gives Waitress $10,000 For Paying For Soldiers’ Lunch Via People A New Hampshire waitress who picked up the lunch tab of two National Guard soldiers affected by the federal government’s shutdown has been repaid – more than 300 times over – by television star Ellen DeGeneres. Sarah Hoidahl, a waitress in Concord, N.H., just wanted to do a nice thing for the soldiers, so she paid for their lunch. It cost her $27.75. On Friday, DeGeneres squared the tab and then some, giving Hoidahl $27.75 in cash and a check for $10,000. An emotional Hoidahl buried her face in her hands and thanked DeGeneres as the talk show host repeated, “You’re a good person.” DeGeneres caught wind of Hoidahl’s act of kindness when the New Hampshire National Guard posted a picture on its Facebook page. The story spread quickly online, producers saw it and invited Hoidahl to Hollywood. Ellen also gave her a 50-inch television. Hey, Ellen, we held the door for some nice old folks the other day, let us hold somethin’!!! Image via WENN Continue reading →

Posted on October 17, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

He put a ring on it. Kristen Bell And Dax Shepard Tie The Knot They make a cute couple. According to TMZ Bad news, men everywhere … Kristen Bell is officially off the market — TMZ has learned, she and longtime boyfriend Dax Shepard have finally tied the knot. The couple had a no-frills ceremony at the Beverly Hills County Clerk Office. We’re told there was a photographer present, and Kristen was crying. According to eye witnesses, Kristen and Dax went to the clerk office just to get their marriage license — but when a court employee offered to marry them on the spot, they agreed … and conducted the ceremony in a nearby courtroom. Not a huge surprise … Kristen has talked about wanting a courthouse marriage in the past, saying, “I feel like we get enough attention in our daily lives and we just want something sort of private that involves pen and paper.” Dax famously proposed to Kristen after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the gay marriage ban in June … kind of a solidarity thing. Mazel tov! Congratz again. WENN

Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen: Epic BFF Alert!

Posted on September 19, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen make for the coolest bromance of all time. Although before that word was created, you might have just called it “friendship.” The British actors recently went on a sightseeing tour of NYC together and the resulting Twitter pics are, well, the awesomest you’ll see all day for sure: “Empire State! #gogodididonyc @TwoPlaysInRep,” the newly-married Stewart wrote along with a pic of his and McKellen atop the Empire State Building. In the photo, the actors wear matching black bowler hats a la Walter White in Breaking Bad (or the two of them in Waiting For Godot ) and make like tourists. In another shot of them, Stewart writes, “Elmo! #gogodididonyc @TwoPlaysInRep,” while the two pose with a the Sesame Street character in Times Square. Quite a run lately for these two. Just the other week, McKellen, 74, officiated the wedding of Stewart, 73, and Sunny Ozell . Keep the photos coming!

Christina Aguilera on The Tonight Show: She’s Got The Voice (and the Best Body Ever)

Posted on September 19, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Christina Aguilera stopped by The Tonight Show With Jay Leno last night to discuss her return to NBC’s The Voice Season 5, kicking off next week. Her own voice, while top-tier, was playing second fiddle Wednesday, though, thanks to a Bec & Bridge black dress she wore to the set. Just. Wow. Christina Aguilera on The Tonight Show During her interview with Jay, the slimmed-down, five-time Grammy winner was asked to explain one of her quotes from the latest issue of Maxim. In the magazine, Aguilera revealed that “the one place I don’t need to be in control is in the bedroom.” Gulp. Asked to elaborate, Christina explained: “I’m a big micromanager. I’m a stickler about organization.” “Everything needs a place, a purpose… I think every woman should relax and allow herself to be pleased in the bedroom. It’s the one place I can let go.” Christina Aguilera Covers Maxim, Flaunts Slim Figure The songbird, who’s been dating production assistant Matthew Rutler for nearly three years, said she’s always been comfortable in her own skin. “I’m an artist, and expressing myself in a sexual way, no matter how that changes throughout the years, is something that has always come naturally to me.” “At this point of my life,” she added, “I’m 32 and I feel sexier than ever.” We would not disagree with that assessment whatsoever, Christina. Aguilera also opened up about the #1 man in her life, 5-year-old son, Max (with ex-husband Jordan Bratman), of whom she said, “He’s the joy of my life.”

Jesse Csincsak and Ann Lueders: Expecting Second Child!

Posted on September 19, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Ann Lueders and Jesse Csincsak of The Bachelor and Bachelorette fame are expecting their second child together. They got married in 2010. “Baby number two is due late March 2014,” Csincsak said. No pressure, Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried . “We are currently starting our second trimester so we don’t know the sex of the baby just yet. Number two will be a great addition to our family, completing us.” “I am hoping for a boy , but I’m sure Ann is secretly hoping for a girl to one day take over the fashion business she is building,” the dad-to-be added. Their first-born, Noah, arrived in 2011. Now based in the mountains of Colorado, the couple have no regrets about leaving Tinseltown behind and not trying to leverage any post- Bachelor fame. “People, they get caught up in the free ride from the show and forget about real life,” he explained as to why so few reality couples make it through. “Then when the show is over and the cameras and checkbook disappear, they don’t know how to act let alone have a successful relationship or start a family.” Csincsak also has a word of warning to future TV pairings: “Stay as far away from producers and Hollywood as possible if they want their love story to work out.” “Go back to whatever it was you were doing before the show.” Jesse Csincsak got engaged to DeAnna Pappas on The Bachelorette , but that didn’t last. Ann was a contestant on The Bachelor who he met at a reunion event. Congratulations to the happy couple!
