It’s the perennial talk of the political world, but Bill Clinton is less than decisive about the prospect of his wife, Hillary Clinton, running for president in 2016. “She hasn’t mentioned it to me,” Clinton said of the Hillary 2016 buzz when asked at the Peter G. Peterson Foundation’s 2013 Fiscal Summit in D.C. “I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I know this: that is the worst expenditure of our time,” he said, adding that it’s “frustrating” to be talking politics. “She’s taking a role in the foundation, she’s writing books, she’s having a little fun being a private citizen for the first time in 20 years,” Clinton said. “We need to be worried about the work at hand right now. All of us do.” “That way, whoever the next president is has an easier set of choices.” Good point, but still … since we’re on the topic: Hillary in 2016? Gosh yes! Please run, Hill! We’ll see who else runs. Gosh, no! UGH. View Poll »
Well it’s about time ain’t it? After years of torturing his now-wife with meaningless flings, Justin Timberlake has his hubby hat on and is acting the part with a whole lotta gusto. Via NYPost reports : Justin Timberlake sang directly to his wife, Jessica Biel, during his concert at the Roseland Ballroom Sunday. Timberlake crooned for 3,000 fans but directed some of his most romantic lines to Biel. A witness tells us, “Jessica was sitting in the balcony with Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis. When Justin opened the show, he kept looking right at her. And when he sang ‘Mirrors,’ he sang the lyrics directly up to Jessica.” The song includes lines like “I’m lookin’ right at the other half of me.” What a sweet story. Too bad every time we read something nice about these two all we can think about is how he dogged her out so bad for all the years before finally putting a ring on it. Do you think JT’s dirty dog past will ever be forgotten? WENN Continue reading →
Chris Christie Reveals He Had Weight Loss Surgery This goes out to the haters who said ole Chrissy could never be president because he was too fat! According to NY Post: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie secretly underwent lap-band stomach surgery to aggressively slim down for the sake of his wife and kids, he revealed to The Post last night. The Garden State governor agreed to the operation at the urging of family and friends after turning 50 last September. He told The Post he was thinking of his four kids and how it was time to start improving his health when he decided to have the procedure. “I’ve struggled with this issue for 20 years,” he said. “For me, this is about turning 50 and looking at my children and wanting to be there for them.” He also insisted that, contrary to what observers may say, the effort to slim down was not motivated by thoughts of a presidential bid. “It’s so much more important than that,” he said. Christie checked in to a surgery center on Feb. 16. A source said he registered under a false name. The operation included placing a silicone tube around the top of his stomach, where it restricts the amount of food he can eat at one time and makes him feel fuller, faster. Christie has struggled with his weight for decades. He sometimes jokes about it, while other times, it’s a sensitive topic. Insiders said it was the only thing keeping the straight-talking executive from higher office. Despite Christie’s denials, political fund-raisers say that the surgery is a clear sign that he’s going to join the 2016 race — and will do whatever it takes to win. “This means he’s running for president. He’s showing people he can get his weight in control. It was the one thing holding him back,” a top political donor told The Post. Sources said Christie didn’t make the decision lightly — he even had private conversations about the operation with once-rotund Jet coach Rex Ryan. Ryan lost about 100 pounds — down from a massive 350 — after he had the same procedure done in 2010. Christie has never revealed his weight, but estimates have run from about 300 to 350 pounds. He hired the same ace laparoscopic and bariatric surgeon as Ryan — Dr. George Fielding, head of NYU Medical Center’s Weight Management Program. Christie employed cloak-and-dagger tactics to hide the operation. First, he never went into Fielding’s office for medical visits — instead, the doctor came to the governor’s house in Mendham, the sources said. As he drops pounds, doctors will pump more saline solution into the lap band, restricting his stomach further and forcing him to eat even less. In 2006, Christie said in an interview that getting a more involved surgery — gastric bypass — was never a consideration because it was “too risky.” The enlivened pol said that he knew the clock was ticking on his health and that the time had come to do something drastic. “I know it sounds crazy to say that running for president is minor, but in the grand scheme of things, it was looking at Mary Pat and the kids and going, ‘I have to do this for them, even if I don’t give a crap about myself,’ ” he said. In a nutshell, we will probably see this former fat fawk in the 2016 Presidential Election. Good for him!!

The Boston Celtics shocked the basketball world last night by keeping their season alive in New York, defeating the Knicks 92-86 in Game Five of the NBA Playoffs. But the real fireworks were saved until after the game, when Celtics benchwarmer Jordan Crawford got into it with Raymond Felton and Carmelo Anthony. Watch the fracas below: Celtics vs. Knicks: Post-Game Shoving Match Did this beef have anything to do with Kevin Garnett telling Anthony awhile back that his wife tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios ? Crawford – who didn’t even play in the game – simply told The Boston Globe: “They was talking to me, baby. They was talking to me. Yeah, they like me. I think it’s that smile I keep carrying… “I don’t know what happened, you know what I’m saying? I was on the bench the whole game, I don’t know why they was talking to me. “They gotta be upset, their [expletives] tightening up. Of course they upset.” Well, okay then. That clears it all right up! Game 6 will be played in Boston tomorrow night.
