But not tonight. A Big Glitzy Party is soon to be for the Media Elite who will mingle with "movie stars" and star-struck politicians in a format much like an awards show with a red carpet situation and everything! E! is planning to Live Stream the arrivals at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner! Wow! How very fluffy the dinner has become. Just ask Tom Brokaw who no longer graces the festivities because he has reached his impatience level for BS at long last and prefers to watch the event these days from the comfort of home via CSPAN. Who or what was it that finally broke Brokaw's Back on not attending? Who else but America's Great Embarrassment, Lindsay Low-Hand?
That's right. The Walking Bruise has ruined/tainted another American Institution. First, she's caused the California Legal System to look like bigger fools than it/they are/is every year since she began hitting people in cars and for real; stealing jewelry; lying to the cops…you know, her usual MO. Then she made sure we could see how easy it can be to slip out of the prestigious Betty Ford Clinic to "party" while doing court-ordered rehab. Now she's ruined Tom Brokaw's fond memories of the days when celebrities were invited to the dinner who were at least somewhat politically savvy, intelligent, involved in causes and the like. Yep. Those days did exist until recently when Credible Celebrities began to be replaced by Tabloid Queens, or so Brokaw implied in a recent interview.
Although I agree with his assessment of the event as having become a form of a frat-house bash, I think his poison arrow should be aiming at the correspondent's and networks who do the inviting of famous names and faces, which was Fox's Greta Van Such-A-Turd last year dragging The Low-Hand along with her to sit at Fox News' Special Table. Sigh. Low-Hand will go out with anyone!
However, none of the above is actual gossip. Tom Brokaw's diss of the WHCD is all over the I-Nets today where you can watch the video of the interview or read transcripts. He does remain one of the Saner Heads in the News Biz these days…and I applaud him for always being the Grounding Force for MSNBC's often OTT Chris Matthews when a Huge News Story is happening and Chris begins speculating and spewing stream of consciousness un-consciousness, while Tom, brought in to comment, strikes the "Let's wait for the facts…" tone which usually shuts everyone up and a tinge of actual journalism begins to creep into the coverage.
So, what's The Gossip Fluff today based on near-facts more than rumours which, nevertheless, have people whispering? How about a quick sentence rundown?
An actress who pretends to be "straight" wears a Pink Rolex and might be messing around with one of her own kind. (Other than the "pink" I'd say that sort of gossip could be about every other actress in Hollywood, as it is and continues to be no matter what the truth is… )
Goopy-Loop has once again shown us with her recent TMI on that "70's Bush" down "there" why most people find her to be insufferable.
Somewhere I'm sure at least one rail-thin actress is having food of some sort for the first time in days, particularly if it's a cookie laced with meth = a Two-For-One Special to retain the Bobble Head look while ingesting carbs and sugar.
Justin Beaverland may have posted an old picture of himself almost "cuddling" with supposed-ex, Selena Gomez, on Instagram today while his rabid fans are twattering how much they want to kill Selena – again.
Frankly, I don't want to kill anyone, but Beaverland comes close now that he has officially abandoned his Motherless Pet Monkey in Germany.
That's enough for today. There's too much Usual Fluff flying around, and most of it is Boring As Hell.
So, on that note, I bid you a lovely weekend day/evening/middle-of-the-night/dawn.
