The mother of an 8-year-old girl presented with a “Catastrophe Award” for the best/most excuses for not doing homework believes her child was humiliated by her teacher. Christina Valdez said her daughter, Cassandra Garcia, came home one day from class at Desert Springs Academy in Tucson, Ariz., with the paper award. The document, which looks like a colorful card, says: “You’re Tops! Catastrophe Award . Awarded to Cassandra Garcia. For Most Excuses for Not Having Homework!” The teacher signed and dated the card, which included a smiley face. Eight-Year-Old Wins ‘Catastrophe Award’ The teacher announced the award in front of Garcia’s entire third grade class, while other students laughed at her daughter, Valdez told KGUN-TV in Tucson. When she called to complain, the principal “blew me off,” Valdez added. “She said it was a joke that was played and that the teachers joke around with the children.” Valdez told KGUN that she didn’t find any of it funny. “I think it’s cruel and no child should be given an award like this. It’s disturbing,” she said, adding that she was unaware of any problem with homework.

Jenelle Evans just got engaged to Gary Head , and already, rumors are flying that the Teen Mom terror may expecting a second child she has no interest in. The Oak Island, N.C., product has “put on 20 lbs. recently,” according to a source because she is pregnant with another baby … supposedly. Allegedly. Hey, at least she’s in a “stable” relationship at this point. Her engagement to Gary Head has already lasted two whole weeks, beating analyst expectations. Is she actually pregnant though? We doubt it. It’s just hearsay. Still, “she’s so irresponsible, it wouldn’t surprise me if she’s pregnant,” says an insider. “But for her to want another child would be crazy, because it doesn’t seem to bother her at all that she doesn’t have custody of [2-year-old son] Jace.” Who said anything about wanting one? Anyway, baby or not, Gary is stoked he gets to see Jenelle Evans nude for the rest of his life, or at least until their engagement ends this summer. “She just broke up with Kieffer [Delp] a week before the engagement and immediately got back with Gary,” the insider explains. “Gary is thrilled, because he had asked her to marry him before and she said no. I guess she changed her mind.” Guess so.

Levi Johnston Is Broke And Living With His Mom SMH. Didn’t this dude write a book and pose in Playgirl or some isht??? He’s not the Thrilla From Wasilla anymore. Bristol Palin’s baby-daddy, Levi Johnston, is now penniless and living in his mother’s Alaska home, a source tells Us Weekly. “Levi made more than $1 million and squandered it on guns, boats and four-wheelers,” the source says of Playgirl’s winter 2010 cover model, 22. The cash certainly didn’t go to Palin, 21, for their 3-year-old, Tripp. “Levi hasn’t paid child support in nearly two years,” says another insider. “And he has little contact with Tripp.” Meanwhile, the onetime mayoral hopeful is expecting a daughter with girlfriend Sunny Oglesby. (They told Inside Edition they plan to name her Breeze Beretta, after the gun.) Says the first source, “Levi is confused about his life.” Levi Johnston’s former rep Tank Jones — with whom he recently parted ways — counters that Levi is doing great. “I wanted to work on other projects. This was a mutual decision,” Jones tells Us of his decision to cease working with the Alaska native. “I would think he would want to do some different things too. I would never leave him at a low point.” Typical. Source

Janet Jackson Reportedly Motivated To Lose Weight For Wedding Those Janet Jackson marriage rumors are on and poppin’ again ! The “skinny” on her new diet is that it was motivated by her desire to get in shape for a summer wedding and be healthier to take custody of Michael’s kids. There’s a secret behind JANET JACKSON’s dramatic weight loss — marriage and children! The 45-year-old pop star has dropped 30 pounds on the Nutrisystem diet over a five-month period, and The ENQUIRER has learned that her motivation for shedding the weight was to slim down for a late summer wedding to billionaire Qatari businessman WISSAM AL MANA. What’s more, Janet and Wissam, 36, are making arrangements to raise her beloved late brother MICHAEL’s children — PRINCE, 15, PARIS, 14, and BLANKET, 10 — once her elderly mother KATHERINE can no longer care for them. “Janet and Wissam have been planning to marry for some time, but she wanted to fit into the perfect wedding dress,” said a family insider. “And once she and Wissam are married and settled, she wants to take custody of Michael’s children.” The 5-foot-4 singer/actress, who now weighs a svelte 118 pounds, has seen her weight soar as high as 180 over the past few years. She has admitted that she packed on the pounds after Michael’s tragic death in 2009. And just a few months ago, she was tipping the scales at 150. But after finally getting past the grief of losing Michael and the involuntary manslaughter trial of his physician, Dr. CONRAD MURRAY, Janet “decided to make a change in her life” and lose the weight, said the insider. Janet and Wissam had originally planned on having their own children, but after much consideration they decided that their best option would be take custody of Michael’s kids. “Janet knows that there are huge risks in having children at her age,” noted the insider. “She also wants this slim-down to be her last, and a pregnancy would cause her to gain a lot of weight again. “Wissam adores Janet and agreed to go along with whatever she wants. “Janet has a healthy new lease on life and is ready for anything, especially marriage and motherhood.” Everything we’ve heard about this Wissam guy is so great, but we have a hard time believing it considering Janet’s track record.
