7 Celebrities with Health Conditions
Posted by Gina as Celebrities, Health Issues at 7:00 AM UTC on Feb, 09 2012
Celebrities are perfect. They have no flaws. They are always at their best, even upon waking up.
Stupid as those statements may sound, they do come up in the minds of Jane and Joe Average, if only because of what is portrayed by the media. Now and then, we do come upon pieces showing just how human celebrities are. Humans like you and me.
This is not to downplay the health condition of any celebrity in this list. Neither is it to make fun of them, but if you feel a slight sense of schadenfreude, no one will make any judgements for sure. So here are some celebrities with health conditions, if it makes you feel any better that they are human after all.
Kim Kardashian

Posted by MoJoe as Gisele Bundchen, Tom Brady at 7:25 PM UTC on Feb, 07 2012
The New England Patriots suffered a disheartening loss against the New York Giants at last Sunday's Super Bowl. The match was closely fought until the very last part of the game, which makes it a more painful defeat for the Patriots. Tom Brady, the Patriots’ quarterback, was especially sad after the game.

M.I.A. Provides This Year’s Super Bowl “Scandal”
Posted by Gina as Celebrities, Don't Worry- It's OK at 6:40 AM UTC on Feb, 06 2012
Everyone looks forward to the Super Bowl year in and year out, and while most people anticipate the game, you can't deny that the half time show plays a major role. And when it comes to the Super Bowl half time show, controversy is no stranger.
Remember Janet Jackson's breast-baring act? "Nipplegate", as it is sometimes called will be forever remembered by those who saw and heard about the "wardrobe malfunction". Never mind that more than half of the audience have seen more than a breast exposed on the wide screen. The American public still clamored against that act of "indecency".
This year, I am rather surprised that Madonna has not provided the controversy for the half time show. Tell me you aren't!
One of her fellow performers on stage did that instead. Rapper M.I.A. did not go all the way, but still stirred up conservatives by giving a camera her middle finger.
MIA Flips Camera
Oh, come on guys, this is not polite, sure, but look at that chick. Does she look like she is the politest gal in town? The producers should have expected something like this to happen! And now that it has happened, what's there to cry about?
It's definitely not appropriate. M.I.A. should be fined or something, then let's forget about her. It's not like she gets lots of publicity these days anyway. Maybe she thought that making that gesture would get her more than five minutes in the limelight in 2012.
For good measure, here's the video of the half time show.

Tom Cruise may still be feeling the effects of his crazy phase but it’s good to see that he’s still unfazed by the effects of his image going south and just figuratively let his hair down and be a normal dude for once.

Heidi Klum and Seal
A lot of tongues wagged when Seal somehow snatched up gorgeous Heidi Klum. The more vicious ones kept throwing the same question out there: how did the singer manage to get her attention?
I say that it is a reflection of Heidi Klum’s priorities. Yup, people, not all women are after those hot, hunky guys. Although that factor always helps as long as the guy isn’t an a-hole. Read the rest of this entry »

Burlesque Queen Dita von Teese shines in Las Vegas
Posted by glennb as Celebrities at 9:38 AM UTC on Jan, 17 2012
Queen of Burlesque Dita Von Teese delivered a sexy midnight burlesque striptease at the Hyde Bellagio in Las Vegas on Saturday night. At midnight she performed a version of her infamous champagne glass act.
Dita von Teese was joined on the red carpet by 2012 beauty pageant princesses and nightclub models but she was not daunted by the rival beauties.
“I’m a woman of experience, and not one of them has a waist as tiny or tight as mine in a cinch! “she said before the show. “I’ll pull out all the stops for a raucous, one-off, classic show undressing in a large champagne glass against the fountains of the Bellagio. How can any of them compete with that?”
She was right. They couldn’t and she was the star of the night.
When the clock struck midnight, Von Teese took the stage in an haute couture costume adorned with thousands of Swarovski crystals. She then teased the cheering crowd as she danced around an enormous champagne glass peeling off layer after layer of clothing and untying the corset from her tiny laced up waist. The crowd went wild as Miss Dita Von Teese poured champagne down her body, finally immersing herself into the champagne glass, kicking and splashing champagne.
It was Dita Von Teese’s first burlesque performance in Las Vegas for over a year. But afterwards Von Teese said that she hoped to be back in Vegas soon.
“I’m hoping we’ll be able to bring some of the showgirl burlesque back to Vegas. I’m doing the real version, which is the same way it was done in the 1930s and ’40s; that’s what burlesque really was.”

Hollywood Actors Who Love Cats
Posted by Gina as Celebrities, Pets at 6:24 AM UTC on Jan, 17 2012
Who’s a cat person? Not me, but I do appreciate how people fall in love with their feline companions. I find it amusing how even the coldest people suddenly melt when they are around their cat. And Hollywood guys – tough or not – are not exempt from the charms of these stately (and not quite domesticated) creatures!
Now who would have thought that Guns ‘n Roses frontman Axl Rose loves cats? Apparently, he introduced his cat to the world via his Twitter account, and he had only one word to say “Dijon”. Nice name for a cat, if I say so myself!

Celine Dion had twins, thanks to IVF, and has spoken openly about her six failed IVF procedures. Only a few decades ago IVF was considered weird science, now everyone is using it.

Frasier star Kelsey Grammer and his wife, Camille used a surrogate after her Irritable Bowel Syndrome prevented her from carrying to full term. And Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban also went down the surrogacy route with their biological baby born via a surrogate mother in Dec 2010.
