I know these pictures of Katherine McNamara in a see-through Barbie shirt probably have some of you currently checking your closets for Chris Hansen, but don’t worry, according to my sources, Katherine here is 19. And after checking out this leg show she put on, it’s my professional opinion that Katherine has what it takes to be the next former Disney Channel star to make it big, just like Selena or Miley. All she needs is an experienced blogger/manager/wardrobe advisor to help take her career to the next level, and I’d be happy to volunteer. I’ve already got a whole bunch of ideas. Granted, most of them involve leaked sex tapes, but still… Call me! Photos: PacificCoastNews Continue reading →

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott reportedly want to procreate again, believing that a fifth child with bring them closer together this holiday season, and in marriage. If the mere idea of this piece of celebrity gossip being true made you cringe, well, you are not alone. And it may be just that, gossip. But on the flip side … Would you really put it past Tori and Dean?! A friend reportedly said of the embattled couple’s plans , “they love their four children and believe a new baby in the New Year will bring them closer together.” Seems to us like it might do the opposite. It was last winter when Dean partook in a torrid two-day affair with Emily Goodhand in Toronto, which was somehow outed by the mysterious mistress. Somehow, the couple stayed together and even chronicled the marital fallout from this affair, and all their other baggage, on two seasons of reality TV. If you watch True Tori online , you know what a train wreck that was. Nothing about it would make you think real progress was being made or should be. All it did was make you feel bad for Liam, 7, Stella, 6, Hattie, 3, and Finn, 2, who will have to grow up and watch this someday. Now they want another?! “Sometimes it seems their love of kids is the one thing they have in common,” their friend noted matter of factly, and while that may be, what about Dean’s … Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott: Through Good Times and Bad 1. Tori and Dean Moment Tori and Dean share a touching moment. So much to say about these two. On camera, they discussed him getting a vasectomy after her last birth, but he balked. The fact that this was even talked about, though, makes you wonder. Or not. Maybe things are just great now. “Dean’s warmed to the idea of having another kid. He realizes how much he hurt Tori, and now wants to make her happy. He feels she’s due,” the friend says. Sounds like a healthy, totally foolproof idea to us. As the saying goes, it never fails to make it up to your long-suffering wife by getting her pregnant again.
Los Angeles police are investigating this video of a song poking fun at the killing of black teenager Michael Brown by a white policeman, reports indicate. The racist parody of “Bad, Bad Leroy Brown,” performed at a retired officer’s party at the Glendale, Calif., Elks Lodge, went viral earlier this week … Michael Brown Racist Song Parody The song, captured on video and posted on celebrity gossip and news site TMZ, is pretty stunning considering the fallout from Brown’s death this year. Anger over police killings of black men has intensified following the cases of Brown and Eric Garner . No charges were filed against police in either case. In an apparent revenge attack Saturdya, Ismaaiyl Brinsley murdered two officers in Brooklyn. With tragedies and tension at all time highs, this video? It’s certainly not going to help. LAPD Chief Charlie Beck said: “Like many of you, I find it offensive & absurd. It does not reflect the values of the #LAPD.” “I have directed our Professional Standards Bureau to look into this,” he added, to help “determine if any active department employees were involved.” The lyrics, heard plain as day, are as follows: Michael Brown learned a lesson about a messin’ With a badass policeman And he’s bad, bad Michael Brown Baddest thug in the whole damn town Badder than old King Kong Meaner than a junkyard dog Two men took to fightin’ And Michael punched in through the door And Michael looked like some old Swiss cheese His brain was splattered on the floor And he’s dead, dead Michael Brown Deadest man in the whole damn town His whole life’s long gone Deader than a roadkill dog The song was performed by Gary Fishell, an Elks member, at a party organized by a retired LAPD officer there on December 15, local media reported. A trustee for the lodge, in a statement to LA Weekly, apologized for the song, which he called inappropriate and said does not reflect the group’s values. A lawyer for Fishell, a former private investigator, said, “He’s a goofball who writes funny songs,” adding that he now realizes it was “off color and in poor taste.” Retired officer Joe Myers, who hosted the dinner after a charity golf tournament, spoke to TMZ about the song , saying, “How can I dictate what he [Fishell sings]?” “This is America. We can say what we want. This is a free America.” A trustee for the Lodge says Myers’ dinner was not an official Elks Club event, but since he is a member he had a right to hold a dinner there for his charity. The trustee says many people were upset, though (including one person who was so upset that no one objected that they filmed and leaked the clip): “It’s deplorable and inappropriate and the Lodge will be taking disciplinary action against [Fishell] and possibly the people who organized this event.” We imagine this isn’t the last we’ll hear of this story, as Brown’s shooting in Ferguson, Mo., this summer continues to resonate throughout the nation … Celebrities React to Events in Ferguson, Missouri 1.

Damn! I guess Taylor Swift took that whole Jessica Hart “feud” from last year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to heart. For those of you who need a refresher on your year-old manufactured gossip, Jessica supposedly said that Taylor didn’t have what it takes to be a lingerie model after her performance. Well, as you can see from these shots from this year’s show, that’s definitely not the case anymore. In fact, I’d say that Taylor looks better than at least half the professional models I post on this site. And if she ever wants to try her hand at going pro, my phone takes great photos. I’m just saying. » view all 36 photos Photos: WENN.com Continue reading →
