Macaulay Culkin Responds to Death Rumor with Weekend at Bernie’s Photo, Wins the Web

And the winner of the Internet this weekend is… MACAULAY CULKIN!!! The child star became the latest celebrity to have his death prematurely reported on the Internet yesterday, with chatter going around that Culkin was found dead in his Manhattan apartment. Fortunately, Culkin is alive and very well and responded to the hoax in a seriously hilarious manner: by going all Weekend at Bernie’s on us! Via the official Twitter account of his rock back (The Pizza Underground), Culkin is seen above making like the title character in the aforementioned comedy, which centers on a couple of friends pretending all weekend as if they’re friend Bernie is actually alive. “Weekend at bernies with @anchovywarhol #greenroom,” the band’s handle captioned the picture of Culkin, jokingly playing dead in the arms of his bandmate. Incredibly, yesterday marked the second time this year that Culkin was rumored to have passed away. A couple years ago, meanwhile, The National Enquirer claimed Culkin was spending $6,000 per month on a heroin addiction. This allegation surfaced around the same time as photos of a very thin Culkin also appeared on the World Wide Web. It’s unclear why folks like to spread lies about Culkin, though perhaps some are jealous that he’s seen Mila Kunis nude . The two stars dated for many years prior to Kunis procreating with Ashton Kutcher. Here’s a look, meanwhile, at the impressive company Culkin now keeps as someone famous once falsely presumed to be dead: Celebrity Death Hoaxes: Stars the Internet Fake-Killed 1. Lil Wayne Lil Wayne has been the subject of more than one death hoax over the years … and more than one actual near-death experience. So it’s believalble.

Andy Dick Arrested for Grand Theft: Did He Really Steal a Necklace?!?

Andy Dick has pulled, well, a dick move. Allegedly, that is. According to TMZ, the trouble actor was riding his bike on Hollywood Boulevard last week when he spotted a man wearing an expensive necklace. The former Newsradio star supposedly asked the victim if he could see it and the man, recognizing Dick, responded in the affirmative. Authorities say Dick then simply rode away with the item, which was later valued at $1,000. The man reported the crime and police arrested Dick when they found him on his bike near his home Friday night. The copes arrested Dick for grand theft and and he sat in jail until posting $25,000 bond Saturday morning. In addition to NewsRadio, Dick briefly had his own program on MTV and enjoyed roles in several movies. He also was a contestant on Dancing with the Stars last year. In January 2012, Dick was accused of battery against a tourist in Hollywood, while he also went on an Anti-Semitic rant in August 2011 and was arrested that same year for disorderly conduct. The guy clearly has some problems, regardless of his guilt in this latest incident. Let’s hope he seeks professional help. Celebrities Who Have Been Arrested in 2014 1.

Sadie Robertson, Mark Ballas Channel Adam and Eve, Get Biblical on Dancing With the Stars

Duck Dynasty star Sadie Robertson has always publicly embraced her faith, but she truly brought it to the ballroom on Monday night’s Dancing With the Stars. Delivering a contemporary performance choroeographed by Mark Ballas, the 17-year-old paid tribute to one of the Bible’s most well-known and revered stories … Sadie Robertson and Mark Ballas – Dancing With the Stars Adam & Eve Contemporary Adding their creative spin to the Adam and Eve saga, as told in the Old Testament book of Genesis, Sadie and Mark were outstanding and inspiring. The dance-infused rendition of the events that the Bible says unfolded in the Garden of Eden was a terrific show of Mark’s skills as well as Sadie’s talent. While Robertson has repeatedly shared her faith during the competition, this was the first time that one of her dances overtly explored a Biblical story. Not surprisingly, the brunette said this added a great deal of pressure on Dancing With the Stars Season 19 Episode 10 , but she rose to the occasion. “It’s a pretty intense story. It’s about Eve falling short into sin, but then dragging Adam down with her,” Robertson said in a video that aired before the dance. “Because it’s such an iconic story and it’s also a message from the Bible,” she added, “I do feel pressure to make it right and do the best that I can possibly do.” She captured a near perfect score of 38 out of 40, behind only Pretty Little Liars alum Janel Parrish, so it’s safe to say she was successful and then some. Sadie Robertson Photos: Quack On! 1. Sadie Robertson, John Luke Robertson Sadie Robertson with brother John Luke Robertson of Duck Dynasty. They’re Willie and Korie’s kids. Think she has what it takes to go all the way to the end and bring home the Mirror Ball title? It’ll be hard to upend Parrish, as well as Alfonso Ribeiro. She’s a virtual lock for the final four if she can keep up performances of this high caliber, though, because the Quack Pack simply cannot be stopped!

And follow up.” Smith recently spoke with Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts about her own breast cancer battle and received the following advice from Roberts: “Fight. Fight, fight fight. Don’t worry about anything else…You have permission to be selfish. The message here [is] know your body. Don’t be afraid! It’s better to know that not to know.” Inspired, Smith closed her Tweets for the day by writing: “I am strong and positive as I fight this, just like so many of my breast cancer warrior sisters.

Dick Donato Opens Up About HIV Treatment, Getting Booted from Big Brother

On tonight’s episode of VH1’s Couples Therapy , the housemates will learn that cast member and former Big Brother champion Dick Donato is HIV positive . Donato says that after keeping his diagnosis a secret for three years, he’s decided to go public so that he might use his fame to bring attention to the crippling illness and the difficulty that many patients have with affording treatment. Donato appeared on TMZ Live today, where he opened up to the site about the hardship of paying for medication that keeps him alive: Dick Donato Talks HIV Treatment “The drugs are extremely expensive,” Donato tells Harvey Levin. “This puts a heroin or cocaine addict to shame. It’s like a 110, or 130 dollars a pill. And you cannot miss one dose … that’s when you develop full-blown AIDS, and there is no cure for that.” Donato goes on to say that he was “wiped out” by the cost of treatment and only once he was completely broke was he able to qualify for Medicaid. (The red-haired reality star specifies that he was diagnosed before the availability of the Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare.) In response to news that one of his former cast members, Rachel Reilly, stated that she wished he had stayed on Big Brother in light of his diagnosis? Donato responded that he had no choice but to leave. He was not given a choice by producers, he says, though he also wasn’t bitter about it, since the situation rocked him to his core and he had to leave. Dick says he needed time to “digest” the news of his illness, not to mention plan a course of action regarding treatment, so he harbors no ill will. You can watch Couples Therapy online at TV Fanatic to see Dick break the news to his castmates tonight and cope with his illness in the public eye. Couples Therapy Season 5 Cast Photos 1. Dick Donato and Stephanie Rogers-Fischer Dick Donato, or simply Evel Dick as he’s known to Big Brother Nation, is working on things with his girlfriend Stephanie Rogers-Fischer … and chose Couples Therapy as the platform from which to reveal that he is HIV positive.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have another Jelena sighting. According to E!

And they were also spotted celebrating each other’s good looks… if you know what we mean! “Justin rented out Lucky Strike’s Luxe room for the celebration. Additionally, he was seen kissing and flirting with his on-and-off again girlfriend, Selena Gomez,” a witness tells E!. “The group enjoyed some of Lucky Strike’s Esteban’s Nacho’s Grande, Cheeseburgers and wings. “Specifically, Justin was seen eating the Mac & Cheese bites.” We’re guessing he later also ate some of Selena’s tasty bites… if you know what we mean! A previous report claimed Justin and Selena were having a lot of unprotected, reckless sex these days, which we hope not to be the case. It’s pretty clear at this point that Bieber and Gomez are back together, and not just due to various social media accounts. The Biebs was deposed last week by a lawyer (in relation to a lawsuit that alleges he was involved in the assault of a photographer) and admitted – on record!!! – that he’s dating Gomez . Yes, that’s actual, legal confirmation, folks. And we all know Justin Bieber isn’t one to break the law… oh, right. Nevermind. Still, look again at the above photo.
