Don't Hassle the Hoff

"Though it might seem like a joke, David Hasselhoff is determined to outcamp Showgirls.
How?
He's working on a musical based on his life. And, he's gonna star in it himself!!
The lucky folks in Australia are going to be the ones to get the first taste of David Hasselhoff: The Musical, which will include numbers inspired by The Young and The Restless and Knight Rider.
"I am also doing a heart-rendering set on my life and the mistakes I have made," The Hoff says. "It sounds like a bad joke, but it is really going to be a good show...totally campy. It's written by the same people who wrote Bette Midler's show and produced by the people who produced Chicago in London."
The Hoff hopes to bring his XXXpectacular production to the Vegas strip. He says, "If it ends up in Vegas, how great would that be? I want to entertain people. Sammy Davis, Jr. was my hero."
There better be some Baywatch action going on in that musical too. Nothing better than some wet people in swimsuits on stage!"--PerezHilton.com

"There was only one major no-show on Friday night in Las Vegas for what turned out to be — as much as it could be — a Beatles reunion.
For the premiere of Cirque du Soleil’s stunning new Beatles show, “Love,” at the Mirage Hotel, a group of people came who have not been in the same room since — well, I don’t know -- came together for one night only. Who would have thunk it?
Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the widows of John Lennon and George Harrison — Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison — united for a moment in time to honor the group's historic accomplishments. They are without a doubt the First Dysfunctional Family of Rock and Roll.
That would have been extraordinary enough, but also present for the event were John’s first wife, Cynthia Lennon, their son, Julian, and Ravi Shankar, Harrison’s great musical influence and friend. For a time after the show was over, this entire gang — as well as Apple Records’ masterminds Neil Aspinall and Jonathan Clyde, plus Paul’s brother in-law/business partner John Eastman, and old friend record producer Peter Asher (there wife Wendy and Robin Williams’ wife Marcia) — filled a very small space set up as a “private” party within a humongous celebration for the 4,000 people who’d come to see the first two official presentations of “Love.”"--Foxnews.com

Michael Jackson Is Leaving Bahrain...
...to go to Europe. The Europeans hate us enough. Dear people of Europe,
We sincerely apologize. We are not yet sure where the alien craft is stashed, but as soon as it is found, feel free to deport his ass to his own planet.
Please, America is not taking responsibility for this guy.
F*** You H&M

"After nearly being excommunicated from the fashion biz, Kate Moss uses her supermodel powers to reinvigorate her career. Nine months since tabloid photos surfaced showing Moss snorting what appeared to be cocaine, British fashion house Burberry has unveiled the waif wonder as the new face of their 2006 autumn/winter campaign.After the scandal broke, Moss lost contracts with Swedish retailer H+M, Roberto Cavalli and Gloria Vanderbilt. Although Burberry distanced themselves from Moss by dropping her from their Fall 2005 campaign and removing her posters from their flagship store, they insist she always remained "part of the Burberry family." But why the renewed love now? Calls to Burberry were not immediately returned.Since spending time in an Arizona rehab clinic last year and apologizing to "all the people I have let down," Moss has enjoyed quite the comeback. Besides Burberry, Moss has obtained contracts with Nikon, Calvin Klein, Virgin Mobile, Stella McCartney and French luxury brand Longchamp. Proving what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, reports now claim Moss has more than doubled her earnings since before the whole debacle was exposed. Not bad for a 32-year-old model - a relative dinosaur in the fashion world.Last week British prosecutors revealed Moss would not be prosecuted over the drug claims, saying there was insufficient evidence to prove she was using cocaine."-tmz.com
Cusack still has star power, baby!

"Actor John Cusack has asked a judge to issue a restraining order against a woman who he says has been stalking him. In documents, filed June 23 in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Cusack claims 31 year-old Emily Leatherman has been "showing unusual interest [in him] by stalking, throwing long letters of interest over my fence in bags with rocks and screwdrivers inside, making unannounced visits to offices of people I work with in an attempt to meet with me and listing my address as her own during a recent arrest. Mail addressed to her has been arriving at my residence without my permission. I have never met this person." The documents also say Leatherman "threatens to commit acts of violence against herself if I do not help her."
According to the documents, Leatherman is a transient with no known address."--TMZ.com
Natasha Lyonne is so sad, but I can't resist

"Remember Natasha Lyonne? The adorably husky actress from American Pie and Slums of Beverly Hills seemed to have skipped her DARE classes and, in the past year and a half, has threatened to molest her neighbors dog, pissed off her landlord Michael Rappaport (who wrote about her drug den in Jane), and was hospitalized for all sorts of life-threatening, needle-related things. The last Natasha sighting we ran was in January; we didn’t receive another until mid-May. Bu t as we’d not heard much about Natasha, we weren’t sure if the sighting was legit, so it was set aside for safekeeping. Then we received a genuinely disturbing Natasha account, then another, and yet one more last night. Four fucked Natashas cannot be ignored, so here they are, in order:
May 20th: It is Saturday morning around 9 am and I just saw Natasha Lyonne dragging herself down the street shuffling her feet. It is so sad. I saw this young girl looking like she is in a drug induced coma walking down west 23rd street past Hotel Chelsea. I noticed her because she was so young looking and her face was so dirty and in contrast I looked at her clothes and she was wearing designer jeans, white button down blouse and a cap on her head. Her clothes were disheveled but you don’t see many homeless, drug addicts walking around with designer jeans on and little flat ballet slipper type shoes. She dragged herself over to a public payphone and picked up the receiver and sat for a minute and put it back down and kept walking toward 8th ave. Poor thing!
June 11: I just saw that girl from Slums of Beverly Hills, Natasha Lyonne, inside the Walgreens on Union Square (14th Street, Manhattan) at about 2:15 am. She looked terrible…she had a gray, hooded sweatshirt on (with the hood up) that looked like it was stained on the front, her face was really oily, and she had really dark circles under her eyes. I saw her in the Pharmacy section of the store (I was waiting for a prescription). She walked right up to the cashier and asked for syringes! Specifically, she said “Can you get me a pack of 1 CC syringes?”. The cashier made her sign her name in a book, Natasha paid for them, shoved them in her bag, and then left the store. I was very surprised she would be so open about buying them…I guess she figured no one would recognize her with her hood up at 2 o’clock in the morning.
June 13: This morning at about 9:30 I left my apartment, next door to Cafe Mozart on 70th. Sitting at one of the outside tables was Natasha Lyonne looking ultra-tragic, with two attractive friends who almost seemed like nurses or babysitters. Natasha was dressed in a huge hooded sweatshirt, baggy jeans, etc. It was impossible to estimate her body weight, but her face looked a lot heavier and she was covered in some sort of bad red rash, or a giant pimple over her entire face. She actually looked so bad I feel guilty writing this, I just know there are some people out there who like to hear she’s still alive once in a while.
June 18: I keep seeing her in my neighborhood-chelsea! I sat and watched her for awhile. It is so sad. She looks like she could die any minute. She was sitting on a step with her drug needle literally falling out of her hand as she started to go into her heroin sleep.Then she would wake up and try to itch her face. What is wrong with her face? She looks like she has a huge tumor or maybe she has been beaten up or has some sort of infection but it is red and swollen and bleeding. Every time I see her, she has different clothes on. This time she was wearing black pants, black long sleeved t-shirt (Sunday-the hottest day of the year)and black boots! It is so sad. Where is her family? Why isn’t anyone getting her help?"--Gawker.com
