The self-proclaimed Happiest Place on Earth received quite a scare last night when an explosion rocked party of Disnleyland in Anaheim, California. The blast took place around Mickey’s Toontown, leading to an evacuation of those premises. According to the police, a plastic bottle filled with dry ice ruptured inside a trash can, with firemen responding as a precaution but no injuries reported at the scene. The device appeared akin to others that have gone off in Anaheim neighborhoods in recent months, Sgt. Bob Dunn said told The Los Angeles Times. He told the newspaper that officials will be looking into any connection between the Disneyland incident and these others around town. The explosion happened around 5:30 p.m. and Toontown was re-opened after about two hours.
Donald Trump in 2016 ? Maybe. Michele Bachmann in 2014? Definitely not. The Minnesota Congresswoman and former President candidate made it official in a video announcement this morning: she will not be seeking a fifth term in office. Michele Bachmann Retirement Speech “The law limits anyone from serving as president of the United States for more than eight years, and in my opinion, well, eight years is also long enough for an individual to serve as a representative for a specific Congressional district,” Bachmann said. The controversial conservative did not give an exact reason for her retirement – but did state that an ongoing ethics investigation into her conduct while running for The White House was NOT the basis for her decision. “It was clearly understood that compliance with all rules and regulations was an absolute necessity for my presidential campaign,” Bachmann said. “And I have no reason to believe that that was not the case.” Bachmann was elected in 2007 as the first Republican woman to represent Minnesota in Congress. She strongly opposes Obamacare .
Another former NFL star has come out against Justin Bieber. In the wake of Keyshawn Johnson confronting the singer Sunday night over his reckless driving, Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson has spoken to TMZ and agrees: The 19-year old really has to slow down. “I’ve seen [Justin] driving fast around Calabasas before in the Ferrari,” says Dickerson , who has lived for years in the area. “It’s just not safe.” Bieber has also been accused of partying loudly and very late into the night, while witnesses say they saw him smoking up on his Segway over the weekend. Dickerson doesn’t know anything about those allegations, but he does back Johnson for the action that ex-wide receiver took in response to Justin speeding. “I don’t blame Keyshawn, he’s got kids… I don’t blame him for trying to get [Justin’s] attention,” Dickerson said. “I would’ve been the same way… when you’re a father it takes on a whole new meaning.” No word still from Bieber or anyone in his camp regarding the latest charges against him and his shoddy record behind the wheel.
Jaden Smith may or may not be dating Kylie Jenner . But regardless of his son’s relationship with that reality star, it seems clear his dad isn’t pining to have the Kardashians as his in-laws. In an interview with Vulture, Will Smith was asked about his family versus that other famous family, seeing as both have children that are well-known, both are often in the news, both… … let Will stop you right there. “For our family, the entire structure of our life, our home, our business relationships – the entire purpose is for everyone to be able to create in a way that makes them happy,” Smith says . “Fame is almost an inconsequential by-product of what we’re really trying to accomplish. We are trying to put great things into the world, we’re trying to have fun, and we’re trying to become the greatest versions of ourselves in the process of doing things we love.” And how does that compare to Kim Kardashian ? Or, better yet, to Kris Jenner and how she seems to push her kids into the spotlight? “The idea of fame or exploitation or orchestrating the media is sometimes even less than desirable for us,” the movie star says. Will also insists that he would never – ever, ever, ever – pressure his children into acting or singing. Case in point: Willow Smith turned down a chance to star in a new version of Annie because she wanted to attend school as a 12-year old. And that was all good with her dad. Jenner, meanwhile? She just heard a spot was open in Annie and we’re pretty sure she called Kendall’s agent to get her an audition.
Brandi Glanville is aware of her reputation – and she’s hoping to change it via a couple Tweets. “I do not harass or bully people on twitter, never have, never will,” The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star wrote yesterday, eloquently adding: “I may say f*** off and that I def mean, but thats [sic] to the haters.” Glanville was likely writing in response to Courtney Love, who took to the that same social media outlet earlier in the week and issued a warning to the enemies of LeAnn Rimes . “Send the trouble makers to me,” Love wrote. “I eat that sh*t for breakfast. Leanns [sic] my girl, u f*** with her you f*** with me!” New drama emerged last week between Glanville and Rimes after the former Tweeted that she couldn’t get in contact with the sons she shares with Rimes’ man and her ex-husband, Eddie Cibrian. After Glanville resorted to Tweeting at Cibrian to get his attention, Rimes shot back : “Name calling and twitter rants: so 2012. Music and truth: so 2013.” That’s some profound stuff right there.
