Diane O’Meara Identified as Fake Manti Te’o Girlfriend, Furious at Ronaiah Tuiasosopo

Unbeknownst to her, Diane O’Meara played a critical role in the Manti Te’o girlfriend hoax. O’Meara, a 23-year old marketing executive in Los Angeles, appeared on The Today Show this morning and confirmed her photo was the one used – without her knowledge – in creating Lennay Kekua . The photograph (below) was taken off her Facebook page by Ronaiah Tuiasosopo and passed off as Kekua to Te’o. O’Meara adds that Tuiasosopo called to admit his role in the scheme and apologize for it the day this bizarre story broke. “I don’t think there’s anything he could say to me that would fix this,” said O’Meara. O’Meara went to high school in California with Tuiasosopo, but emphasizes that the pair is not close. He has not spoken out since this scandal hit, but may do so this week. Te’o, meanwhile, will give his first on-camera interview to Katie Couric Thursday.

Michelle Obama Eye Roll at John Boehner: Caught on Video!

Posted on January 23, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

President Barack Obama’s Inauguration featured classic photo bombs, Beyonce lip-syncing , a big Sasha Obama yawn and an epic eye roll from Michelle Obama. Michelle’s rolling of eyes was directed at Speaker of the House John Boehner, who tapped her on the back during lunch. Umm, dude, I’m trying to eat here! Michelle Obama Eye Roll At the inaugural luncheon, Barack Obama seems like he was being cordial toward Boehner, though Michelle looked less than thrilled – at least in this viral clip. It’s one thing to block her man’s agenda in Congress and battle over the debt ceiling like a boss. Another to interrupt FLOTUS in the middle of lunch. Tell us: Was Michelle Obama’s eye roll rude?

You’ll Never Guess Who Gets Third Billing on The Final Muppets Poster

Posted on July 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

The marketing for the Disney reboot of The Muppets that Jason Segel will bring to the big screen this November has been spot-on for months now. Between the hilarious parody trailers — better than the movies they parodied — and the actual trailer , Muppets ad campaign has struck just the right tone between nostalgia and modernity. The final poster for the film does much of the same — it just looks so damn fun! — but does raise one interesting curio. Can you guess which Oscar-winning actor gets third billing after Segel and Amy Adams — and before the Muppets?

Ben Affleck Responds as House Republicans Forge Unity With Inappropriate Clip From The Town

Posted on July 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

If or when you ever think things are irretrievably toxic in Hollywood, at least keep in mind that its barons get things accomplished. (Even if those things occasionally mean Jack and Jill .) Not so much out in Washington, D.C., where the ongoing stalemate over the debt-ceiling increase has escalated to unprecedented levels of partisan brinksmanship. Now we’re hearing about Hollywood actually influencing the rhetoric among House Republicans — and not in a good way.
