Two nobodies breakup (hopefully) no one cares

July 23, 2007 jane121 2 comments

Fame hungry nobodies, Spencer Pratt and Brody Jenner have ended their friendship. Both are desperate to become famous despite having no acutual talent and/or career and their only claim to fame is the fact that they try and get into the pants of a bunch of reality TV stars.

Apparently, the ’split’ happened coz Brody has been ditching Spencer to hang out with Lauren Conrad (The Hills) in order to get on TV more.  Anyways this is good news! Without these two scheming together, perhaps I will never have to see a photo or a hear another story about them again. 

I can’t think of anyone more useless that I’ve had to write a post about.

She is improving

July 23, 2007 jane121 6 comments

I’m really quite stunned but this time I am actually going to give Paris Hilton some credit. She turned up at a charity auction for children with spinal cord injuries and forked over $17, 500 for a surfing lesson with Jesse Billauer and Adam Sandler. She was even wearing the creation of a fashion student who had helped her pumped gas one time, which I think is quite sweet.

If she keeps up the good work I might even give her a get out of ‘angry gossip hobag’s posts’ free card.

Important stuff!

We all like to bag on celebrities who jump on the ‘green’ bandwagon in order to get some positive publicity. The thing is that global warming is really a major issue facing us today. Here is a tiny summary I took from a long report about the expected impacts climate change will have.  The sad thing is that the lives we lead of mass consumption are actually going to have the most detrimental effect on those living in developing countries (who ironically have little to do with greenhouse gase emmissions). It seems so unfair to expect them to pay for our relatively cheap lives of luxury.

Projected climate change-related exposures are likely to affect the health status of millions of people, particularly those with low adaptive capacity (the means developing nations) through: 1.    Increases in malnutrition and consequent disorders, with implications for child growth and development 2.    Increased deaths, disease and injury due to heat waves, floods, storms, fires and droughts;3.    The increased burden of diarrhoeal disease; this is the biggest killer of children worldwide today, primarily in developing countries.4.    The increased frequency of cardio-respiratory diseases due to higher concentrations of ground level ozone related to climate change5.    The altered spatial distribution of some infectious disease vectors. 

New studies confirm that Africa is one of the most vulnerable continents to climate variability and change because of multiple stresses and low adaptive capacity. Yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to 50% by 2020. Fisheries are also expected to decrease significantly and water availability will be reduced. Droughts are already having a devastating effect on African food supplies and this has led to rises in conflict and violence in the area.

For my favourite slags

I decided to post this pic the cheer up my awesome blog buddies (Anners and Danners) after the somewhat less cheery whale post. I don’t know why he appears to be wearing an old tablecloth though.

Japanese whalers slaughtering pregnant females

July 23, 2007 jane121 32 comments

 

More than half the whales killed by Japanese whalers in the Antarctic last summer were pregnant females, the Humane Society International (HSI) said.

The goods news is that soon the HSI with be resuming a Federal Court case against whaling company company Kyodo Senpaku Kaisha Ltd. “The full hearing will be to determine whether Japanese whalers are in breach of Australian law when they hunt whales in the Australian Whale Sanctuary in Antarctica and whether the court will issue an injunction for the hunt to be stopped,” HSI spokeswoman Nicola Beynon said in a statement.

Let’s all hope for a victory against the whaling company.

P.S. I know this is a little random but I needed a little break from celebrities. 

Watch the video if you would like to see one of the Chaser boys harpooning Japanese people for some research/harassing people on the street.

Is She High in this Picture?

Lindsay Lohan is committed to her sobriety by wearing an alcohol momitoring ankle bracket and we all know it’s pretty hard to resist a few drinks whilst you’re out in the surf.

I’m guessing by the heels that she is actually about to party rather than take a dip in the ocean. Wearing a bikini with a pair of gold heels to an event always means class.

There is a slight chance that Johnny and Vanessa may get married.

Damn!  I forgot what my source was for this!   As soon as I find it, I’ll go post it.  But anyways, Johnny Depp and his french actress/chanteuse girlfriend and baby momma, Vanessa Paradis may go ahead and get married after 500 years of being together.

They said they’d go do it if their kids asked them to or something, and that way, they could enjoy the wedding together.   That’s sort of cute!   They said that they feel married, already anyway,  and whatevs!   I think he also made some crack about not wanting to get married because he didn’t want Vanessa to have to change her beautiful name ‘Paradis’, but I think he’s full of it, because no one has to change their damn maiden name if they don’t want to.    I don’t really care if they get married or not.  I just posted this because there is not much else to post right now.

Johnny’s hot though, and I like Vanessa’s teethers.

Yeah, this is sort of old.

Lindsay Lohan just got dumped by that fugly and creepy dude she’s been seeing, Calum Best.   Why?   Let’s just say that he prefers his slags boozed and coked up and fond of knife-play.   Someone who knows Calum and Lindsay very well said that:   ”Calum called Lindsay last week and said he was finding her post-rehab existence dull and that he didn’t want to give up partying.” 

That’s kinda cold, but atleast the Bestard was honest with her.   BTW, Lindsay has also been spotted ‘canoodling’ with Criss Angel, that dirty looking and irritating magician guy who once had himself convinced that he was dating Cameron Diaz.

Always the Selfless One

July 23, 2007 jane121 2 comments

Paris Hilton decided to take a visit to the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. Normally I would try to give credit for a charitable act but I’m pretty sure you can catch an STD from looking at this woman so I don’t think she should be allowed within a 50 foot radius of either a hospital or children.  Why on earth dosen’t she donate some of her undeserved millions to a charity rather than just use them for photo opportunities?

What is really disturbing about this is that if they are letting her in to visit the kids, does this mean that children would actually be excited to see Paris Hilton? Are they reading US weekly/visiting pornographic websites nowadays?

Kirsten Dunst would be a great person to dine with.  Not only does she carry a giant napkin around with her but you could easily snap off one of her legs and use it as a toothpick!

P.S. Yes, I am in raging gossip bitch mode right now.

5 things to like about Ashlee Simpson

4u9nwd4.jpg

Wow!   Here’s an exhilerating photo of Ashlee Simpson descending from an escalator.  I know you’re all excited about this.   Okay, maybe not!   Anyways, I tend to bag on her and I felt bad, so I thought I’d be a  nice slag and come up with like, 5 or so nice things about her.   It’s a good game, and it forces you to be thoughtful.   So here are 5 things to like about Ashlee Simpson:

1.  Is she at the Beverly Center?   Damn, I hate that mall!   I went there with the express purpose of using my Gap card, but guess what?   They don’t have a bloody Gap!   2.  I used to have jeans like that, with the white crease down the middle of the legs.  In 2003!   3.  Is that Kafrine McPhee she’s shopping with?   No?   That’s good!   4.  That’s a nice side part in her head.  5.  She’s not singing. 

Damn, that was hard.

I know this is a little mean spirited but has anybody else noticed how Amy Winehouse fills out her tiny shorts in all the wrong ways? Perhaps there is something she is not telling us.

P.S. She needs to buy herself a new pair of dam shorts. I’m pretty sure she hasn’t taken this pair off since she bought them 5 years ago.
