You guys know I don’t really follow celebrity gossip, mainly because it would distract from my primary mission of following celebrity cleavage, but I’m pretty sure I heard that Taylor Swift was single again. And while that probably means we’ll all have to be subjected to another one of her whiny breakup songs again, it also probably explains why she was dropping so much cleavage at the People’s Choice Awards the other night. Seriously, this is the best I’ve seen her. Looks like Taylor isn’t the only one going to need a box of tissues today. » view all 32 photos Related Articles: Taylor Momsen’s Gothic Sl%t Costume Taylor Swift Swimsuit Pictures Taylor Momsen Drunk, Disorderly And Pantless Taylor Swift Gets Leggy For Christmas Photos: WENN.com

It’s for the safety of the hospital staff… Via NBC News : It’s the most miserable time of the year for many people in the area. Flu season is in full effect and this one in particular is shaping up to be more extreme than usual. The State Department of Health reports that four Pennsylvanians have already died of complications from the influenza virus. In response to the early start of flu season, the Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest had to open an emergency space to care for the increased number of people with flu-like symptoms…after four people died of complications from the virus. The tent is 1,100 square feet and is equipped to treat six patients at a time with three medical staff. Access to a doctor is available inside the emergency room. The tent is only for those with mild flu symptoms while those who have severe cases, need intravenous drips, or have underlying health conditions are taken into the hospital. The flu triage tent began operating at 11am on Tuesday and closes at 11pm each night. The hospital tells NBC10′s Katy Zachry why the tent was erected. “If we can remove them from the main ED and put them in an environment where everyone is masked and everyone can be protected, it’s safer for them and certainly safer for the staff,” said Terry Burger, hospital director of infection control. Officials believe this year will be a particularly bad outbreak of the flu virus – known as H3N2 – and treating patients in isolation is the best way of keeping cases at bay. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that 200,000 people across the country have been hospitalized with this year’s strain so far. Dozens of states including Pennsylvania and New Jersey have reported high outbreaks. Across the U.S., 19 children have so far died from the flu. The elderly, the very young and those with previous health conditions are most at risk. The CDC recommends that individuals get a flu shot which prevents against getting the virus in 90 per cent of cases. Do you get a flu shot every year? Images via twitter
Guess who’s mom negotiated a 100,000 dollar deal with some shitty gossip magazine to be the official source of Kourtney Kardashian’s bikini body after having her second kid…you know the same mom who probably starved Kourtney Kardashian after having her second kid…with this plan already outlined….because their family is a fucking business….that’s right the evil Kardashian stage mom, who only really stage momed when the kids were in their mid-20s….exploiting the bi-product from her gold digging womb…and taking a cut off the top….in some weird as fuck, egotistical bored rich woman hustle…that I understand cuz I’ve met rich people…but that I don’t really get why the world is buying into it…cuz they are vapid, uninteresting, trash…..but I guess that doesn’t matter…you see hollywood is a small town of suck up losers, and they run the entertainment industry 99 percent of America are affected by, and I guess it is only natural she’d use her position in the LA social circle to do this….what is unnatural is that the people actually pay attention…even the hot one…isn’t fucking hot…what a joke….and here she is in that bikini for US weekly with her big, boring, bullshit photoshopped reveal. Horrible.
We all know producers can be a bunch of real, ah, prickly people. They kind of have to be, since their job, so long as it’s their actual job and not just a title given to them because they invested a couple of mil into the production, is to make sure everything goes smoothly, the film stays within budget, and the money isn’t wasted on limos when it could be wasted instead on expensive CG effects that look completely dated within 3 years*. As a result, these guys tend to be blunt as hell and not afraid to hurt some mothaf*ckin’ feelings when they rolling deep through the movie hood , as it were. Take Joel Silver , the famously take-no-prisoners producer of the Lethal Weapon and Die Hard films.** Screenwriter Doug Richardson, the guy who Wrote Die Hard 2: Die Harder , and Bad Boys , has shared a story from the making of Die Hard over on his official site , and it’s a most triumphant example of producer due diligence at the expense of expensive furniture you’ll ever hear. Remember the scene in Die Hard when the roof of Nakatomi Plaza explodes, and the penthouse lobby and fountain area is completely trashed? You might have noticed there’s an expensive looking couch in that scene; You might have also noticed that it appears to survive the initial explosion, only to show up seconds later completely aflame. There’s a reason for that — the couch wasn’t just expensive looking , it actually cost $5,000 back in 1988 which in today’s money is about 5 trillion dollars.*** Apparently, the scene drew cheers and high fives from everyone on the crew after they pulled it off during the shoot; except for Silver that is, whose eagle-eyed penny-pinching powers detected something odd, or as Richardson puts it, “possible sabotage.” To set the scene for what happens next, you might want to find a copy of Who Framed Roger Rabbit and check out Silver’s blustery cameo as the director of the Baby Herman cartoon. Joel called for the entire crew to assemble on the nearly-demolished set, gathering the mob around a gorgeous, leather Roche-Bobois sofa. Estimated value, five thousand dollars. The couch, despite the conflagration that they’d all just witnessed, was in showroom condition. Untouched by destructive fire, explosives, or water. “I wanna know,” Joel shouted, “Who just ruined my shot!” You see, Joel had been around more than a few movie sets. He knew how things worked. He understood how the occasional underhanded crew member operated. In this case, he suspected that one crew member had paid off another crew member on the special effects crew to make certain that the five-thousand-dollar sofa survived the wreckage. “Somebody on this crew,” announced Joel, “Decided to furnish their home at the expense of the movie.” Can you blame them though? I mean, this was the ’80s, and we didn’t have Ikea to make giant couches affordable yet. With that, Joel produced a bottle of lighter fluid, doused the expensive sofa in accelerant, and tossed a match to it. The lesson ended as the couch erupted in flame. The set was cleared again. And camera operators were ordered to “roll film.” Five grand must seem a trivial sum for a movie with a $28-million budget, but damned if you can’t respect someone for making sure every dollar spent on the movie ended up onscreen. I just wonder if he hummed “Ode To Joy” while torching some lowly grip’s living-room dreams. No word from Richardson if similar hijinks happened during the making of Die Hard 2. Probably not, I mean, how many times can the same thing happen to the same guy? * I kid, I kid! ** And a jillion others of course. He helped Walter Hill get The Warriors and Streets of Fire made! *** I’m guessing this is the case based on the way people are freaking out about raising the minimum wage.

Hi, my name is Chloe. First of all I can’t believe I’m sitting here writing my own Bieber Experience! I never thought this day would come. My Bieber Experience all started when Believe tour dates came out. I saw that the first date was in Arizona, which is where I live. I looked at a few other places to see if Justin was playing anywhere on my birthday, and he was! I asked my mom if we could get tickets to see him on in LA and she said yes! I got tickets to see him on my 15th birthday, October 2nd, 2012. I really wanted meet & greets and we did everything we could to buy them, but they sold out immediately. I was upset, but I was also so grateful that I even got tickets. I didn’t want to give up on meeting him though, so I started to enter tons of meet and greet contests. I kept the radio on 24/7 and entered contests all over the U.S. because I didn’t care what it took, I was determined to meet him. Months went by and I still had not won any of the contests. That’s when Justin re-tweeted the BieberFever fan club saying that there was a meet & greet contest. I had lost a lot of hope, but I entered anyway. All I had to do was send in a picture of all of my Justin Bieber merchandise. I sent a few pictures along with a paragraph about why I love Justin and the crazy things I’ve done like taking a cardboard cutout to the mall or to the movie theatre or getting a cake for his birthday. A few weeks went by and I had forgotten that I even entered the contest. Luckily, the night before the concert, I just happened to go on my email and I saw a reply from BieberFever. I’m pretty sure I stopped breathing when I saw that . My two best friends, Rebecca and Hannah looked at me and asked what was wrong. I opened the email and I read it out loud. All of us started screaming and crying. I lost all self-control. I was rolling around on the floor screaming and bawling my eyes out and I sat and cried until I had no tears left. When I got to the Staples Center, I went to the box office to pick up my wristbands and went into this hallway inside. As I was waiting in line, Pattie walked inside and waved to everyone in line, including me! All of a sudden I saw Jaden Smith poke his head out of a curtain! I started screaming and he looked me and smiled! I went through that curtain that Jaden was in and I watched these two guys open up more curtains to the next room. I realized that the guy on the right was Moshe. I started freaking out and the guy on the left said “Happy Birthday!” I realized it was Kenny! I screamed in Kenny’s face and started crying as I gave him a hug. I was so shocked that I could barley move. That’s when Kenny said that Justin was right behind me. I turned around and Justin was standing right there with this big smile and his gorgeous brown eyes looking right at me. I started hyperventilating and my face was really red from crying. I was a mess and I was really embarrassed that Justin saw me like that. I couldn’t bring myself to walk over to him so my mom had to help me because I was holding up the line. Justin hugged me and told me not to cry. He let go and said “Happy Birthday sweetie.” He smelled so good! I was falling over and I started to get really dizzy, my mom had to hold me up for the picture. I hugged Justin one more time and I watched him lift up his hat and put it back on as he continued talking to Kenny . Justin said, “Yeah man it was so scary.” Other people started coming in, so I had to leave. I didn’t say one word to Justin. For years, I planned out what I was going to say to him, and I blew it. As I walked outside, people saw me crying and all of these girls started screaming, “OH MY GOD YOU’RE SO LUCKY!” People were taking pictures with me, hugging me, and some people even asked if they could touch me. It was crazy. The concert was absolutely incredible. Allison walked by us a few times, and I tried to get her attention, but she didn’t see me. It was the most amazing experience of my entire life. I didn’t think that night could get any better. After the concert, we went to Chick-fil-A in Hollywood. As we were walking up to the line, we saw Jaden Smith, Moises Arias, Tyler The Creator and Mateo Arias! I was taking pictures of them and Moises saw me so I asked if I could take a picture of him. He said yes and he was just standing there while I took a picture of him. It was really awkward, so he said “Uhhh do you want to be in the picture with me?” and I was like, “Oh, yeah!” I took a picture with Moises and Jaden walked over to talk to us. I told Jaden that he is an amazing performer and he said, “Thank you I really appreciate that.” I also told him that I saw him when I was in line to meet Justin and he said, “Oh yeah, I saw you too. Was I creepin on you?” and he did the dougie! Then he asked if I wanted to get a picture so we took pictures with everyone and we high fived Tyler! I don’t really know what I was thinking. Everyone we met was SO nice! That night, all of my dreams came true. Everything that happened was so unreal. It felt like a dream. That was definitely the most magical and incredible birthday that anybody could ever dream of. Justin is so sincere and so is everyone else that I met that night. -@FallforJBiebs6 Originally posted here: Hi, my name is Chloe. First of all I can’t believe I’m sitting…
You know what the world needs…more Scarlett Johansson photoshopped to look skinny cuz no one likes a dumpy bitch…when they can have a lean bitch…and as far as we’re concerned…a picture is about as close as we will get to this one….we might ass well take it as good as it can get…rather than the sloppy truth…that they’ve tried to push as having the same measurements of old Hollywood vixens, who were deemed hot, cuz skinny girls at the time were usually poor an unable to afford food, which usually meant diseased and something you didn’t want to get near..but that was then and this is now….now fat is the disease we want to avoid…cuz poor people are now that fat ones…just ask my wife…she’ll tell you…with her belly hanging over her elastic waistband pants…all stretch marked and diabetic….
