Comedian Katt Williams’ Sticky Fingers Land Him In Jail

Comedian Katt Williams was arrested for burglary and criminal trespassing in Georgia.

So I guess this “Pimp” has something new to add to his chronicles.

Williams, who is known for his off color comedy, also starred in a handful of TV shows and in a few flicks over the years.

I guess the revenue from those flicks, and his comedy act were not enough to tide ol’ Katt over, since he was recently caught knocking over a house and allegedlygrabbing $3,500 worth of bling and coins from a house.

Tsk tsk. Was someone too busy putting on airs, rather than watching their cash flow?

CNN writes:

Atlanta, Georgia (CNN) — Comedian Katt Williams was arrested on burglary and criminal trespass charges in a west Georgia community early Monday, according to police.

A police report said Williams, 38, used a crowbar to force his way into a home in a rural area about six miles west of Newnan, Georgia, late Sunday.

About $3,500 worth of jewelry and collectable coins were stolen, according to the report by the Coweta County, Georgia, Sheriff’s Department.

Williams, 38, smiled broadly while posing for a mug shot photo at the Coweta County jail.

His first court appearance is set for 4 p.m. ET Monday, when a magistrate will decide if Williams is eligible for bond, said Deborah Matthews, a Coweta County magistrate court spokeswoman.

Williams’ manager declined to comment.

Williams began his career as a stand-up comic, gaining attention in 1999 for comedy club appearances. Television appearances on the BET Network led to more success.

His 2006 HBO special “Katt Williams: Pimp Chronicles Pt.1″ raised his profile.

He has acted in several movies, including Eddie Murphy’s “Norbit.”

His often raunchy style has drawn comparisons to comedy legend Richard Pryor.

His DVD set — “It’s Pimpin’ Pimpin’,” — is scheduled for release this Wednesday, according to his Web site.

 

It’s kind of tough to come up with a good excuse for busting into a house with a crow bar in your hand. Perhaps Williams can pull a Winona Ryder, and say he was merely preparing for an upcoming movie role, and the crow bar he used to break in with was just a prop. Or maybe he can pull an “O.J.” and claim the stuff belonged to him?

Then again, his caper can also be used as new material for his stand up act.
Although most audiences wouldn’t find much humor in robbing a house. I guess that would depend on who the audience is. I bet his comedy routine would be off the hook in the clinker.

Will this be a career ender for Katt Williams? 
He doesn’t look too worried in his mug shot below.
Will he end up as just a tiny blip on the radar screen of comedy? 
Oh wait… he already is. *snicker*

Verne Troyer, A Tiny Man With Big Troubles

Verne Troyer, aka Mini Me of Austin Powers movie fame, has just been slapped with a temporary restraining order from model Yvette Monet. We will get to that later.

I don’t know much about Verne Troyer.
With the exception of his performance as Mini Me (which I really enjoyed), and his previous appearance on the Surreal Life reality show… I just didn’t know anything more about him.

His appearance on Surreal Life gave me a tiny (no pun intended) look into Verne’s true personality, which kind of disappointed me. From his drunken naked romp on his scooter and peeing on the floor, to the very strange noises he was making after ”Peter Brady” aka Christopher Knight carried Verne back to Verne’s room and had to put him back in his bed. That scene is forever etched in my brain. Ewww. I also found Verne kind of bratty.

So I did a little digging on Verne, and became even more dissapointed. I was a little shocked to find there had been a sex tape leaked involving Verne and former girlfriend, Ranae Shrider  last year. (Verne is suing TMZ for twenty million for showing the tape)

Then there was the love triangle between Verne, Jason “Wee Man” Acuna,(Jackass fame) with Dominique Arganese. I guess some gals love the tiny ones.

Of course there was also Verne’s previous marriage to former Playboy centerfold Genevieve Gallen back in 2004, which lasted all of an entire month. Verne and Genevieve met at a New Years party at Heff’s Playboy mansion in LA. 


Genevieve, Verne and Heff

Genevieve had quite a bit to say (way too much) about her crazy month with Verne. She talked about them getting their sexy on ten times a day and some “sessions” lasting for up to 45 mins a pop. (Sting still has him beat)  She also said they did role playing, and wore costumes. Thanks SO much for that vision Genevieve.

Ok well fine. Nothing earth shattering there, except for the number of times he was able to perform. Which would put most men to shame, and make most women run and hide.

Just because Verne is only 2′ 8″ tall, didn’t mean he couldn’t get his freak on with Genevieve who is 5″ 6″. But I know what all of you are thinking… how did they do it? And er…. does Verne tuck it in his sock? Right? Don’t lie!

Well thanks to Genevieve, she let everyone know by stating this about Verne’s package (or lack there of) and how their love making was achieved:

“We had to be creative – but because of my yoga experience I could get into the right positions to make it work.”

“But I was surprised when I saw him naked for the first time that night-I had expected him to be better endowed. Verne’s body is proportional all over, so he was smaller than I expected.”

“He was a sex addict. He was then only the second man I’d ever slept with. He told me he’d had huge numbers of girls.”

“I had even researched what condoms to use for a little man,”

“With Verne I started experimenting with my own pleasure in ways I had never done before,” says Genevieve.“

Ok ewww… TMI on the that last quote there.
So I guess Verne is quite the little horn dog.

But wow Genevieve, not to pull a dumb blonde stereotype on you… but you were actually surprised that Verne wasn’t more well endowed? Did you really think you would be getting a Milton Berle? (Uncle Miltie was hung like a horse) Or did you think Verne was built like a chinchilla? FYI….chinchillas have unusually enormous schlongs for such a tiny varmint.
I wonder if Verne calls his winky “Mini Me“? Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

And Genevieve claimed that Verne was only the second man she ever slept with? Apparently, Genevieve thinks everyone has just fallen off the turnip truck.

All that aside… Verne appears to be pretty hot with the ladies and there has been no shortage of blondes for him to frolic with. But Verne does seem to have a huge demon. That demon is alcohol.

Genevieve claims that he used to drink a litre of vodka and a 12-pack of Budweiser in a single day.

Yikes! That’s an awful lot of libation for someone shorter than a yardstick. That amount of liquor would do a number on anyone’s liver among other things, never mind his teeny tiny liver. It doesn’t sound physcially possible for Verne to ingest that much hootch. But I guess anything is possible. I just don’t put too much faith behind what Genevieve has said, even though I have seen evidence of Verne crawling into the bottle and being sloppy drunk on more than one occassion.

There are many vids here and there of Verne feeling no pain. Just take a look on Youtube and the internet. One shows him falling over drunk on the ground near his limo, and another of him ramming his scooter into a door. There are videos of drunken conversations with people and let’s not forget the previously mentioned “peeing episode” on Surreal Life.

Vern’s drinking must not only be reeking havoc with his body, but also with his relationships.

More from Genevieve:

“At the end of the day, I think he was more in love with alcohol than he was with me.”

“Soon after I met him he almost drank himself to death. I heard he was in hospital and when I got there he was lying in bed covered in vomit and diarrhoea,” says Genevieve.

“Then there was a time when I got home and found myself locked out. I tried to wake Verne by banging on the door but he’d drunk so much I couldn’t. The neighbours called the police and I convinced them to break the door open to let me in.

“When I found him, he was face down clutching a pillow. I tried to wake him but it was impossible, so I had to pick him up still clutching the pillow and take him outside to present him to the police officers.

“They were shining the light on his head and Verne was mumbling, ‘What’s going on?” One of the police officers started laughing but the other one told him to stop. It was really embarrassing.”

Yikes, Verne what are you doing to yourself?

And now, with this latest development with former gal pal Yvette Monet, Verne had better get his sh*t together.

Yvette Monet is an ex St. Paul beauty queen and model. Of course.
According to The Hollywood Gossip:

Gorgeous model Yvette Monet has requested and been granted a temporary restraining order granted against her unstable former boyfriend … Verne Troyer.

Monet says she used to date Troyer but that they broke up months ago. She states that she believes he owns a gun and that she currently fears for her life.

Yvette says Troyer constantly texts and emails her despite her many requests for him to stop, and that he has sent threats telling her to “watch herself.”

She says Troyer has told her that his friend Burt has a gun and will do anything he says and that he has a cop friend called Jose who also has guns.
Has Verne Troyer really been making threats against his former girlfriend, Yvette Monet? On an unrelated note, was Verne Troyer really dating Yvette Monet?

She requested that Troyer be asked to stay away from her, her workplace, her home and her vehicle. The restraining order will remain in effect until December 2.

A Minnesota native, Yvette is a former beauty queen hailing from St. Paul. She was a spokes model for Merle Norman Cosmetics and has also modeled for Miller Lite.

She has also appeared on eight different television shows.

The 2′8″ Troyer has appeared in the Austin Powers franchise and also appeared in The Surreal Life. He is perhaps as well known for the Verne Troyer sex tape featuring him giving it to another ex-girlfriend, Renae Shrider, last year.

Verne was also seen around London this past February with former UK Big Brother contestant, Chanelle Hayes according to Hollywood Gossip. But who knows if they were actually dating? Maybe she was she trying to land herself a role in the upcoming Austin Powers sequel? I guess we will have to wait and see if Channelle turns up as Fembot.


Chanelle Hayes

Is it my imagination? Or do all these gold diggers look alike?

Gee Verne. A few words of advice….
I think your “mini me” can use a rest. Lose the blondes for a while, and kick that bottle to the curb.

Concentrate on finding yourself, and find yourself some good rehab. (be sure it’s not Scientology or Narconon which are two in the same)

You need to focus on keeping your career on track, especially with the new Austin Powers sequel coming up. Nip all this mess in the bud before you are known as another “high risk” actor. (hello Lohan and the Hoff)

Hopefully you will meet someone who is right for you, and not some gold digging bimbo.They may look pretty on your arm, but what are their true intentions? Unless of course you just don’t care.

As much as digging into Verne’s personal life has really made me cringe, with his sex-capades and his drunken episodes caught on video, I still am rooting for Verne to turn himself around. I don’t know why.

Maybe it’s because I really enjoyed him as Mini Me, or the fact that he can fit in my suitcase. Or maybe it was that little mention of him being able to go ten times a day.

Does anyone have his number?  *SNICKER and EWWWW*


Hey! Now Put That Away Verne!

Music Used To Torture Gitmo Prisoners Has Artists Hopping Mad

Everyone has their own taste when it comes to music.

What may be considered music to one’s ears, may be considered simply torturous to others. Just because I feel that Michael Bolton sounds like a cat getting skinned alive, and that his music is some sort of cruel joke to all of mankind, doesn’t mean that some other tone deaf person has to agree with me.

One thing is for certain, whether it is the sweet voice of Bonnie Raitt or the overrated raspy voice of Bruce who stepped in it Springsteen… if it is played at decibels to make you feel that your ears are going to bleed and it is played over and over… it can be quite torturous no matter who it is.

Everyone is aware that the prisoners at Gitmo (Guantánamo Bay) were needlessly tortured by water boarding along with other degrading and unspeakable acts. 

One of the methods used was music played repeatedly and at ear piercing levels. The songs used and some of the artists who made that music are not too happy to say the least. How would you feel if one of your songs was used to torture someone? I am sure you would be horrified.

Well, Michael Stipe of REM, along with twenty or so other artists have aired their disgust, and have banned together and formed Close Gitmo Now.   

A little info on Gitmo first, before we get into which performers are saying Gitmo has to go.

Gitmo has held nearly 800 detainees in it’s history. An alarming majority of those detainees were never charged, nor went to trial. Only THREE of those detainees have ever been convicted of a crime.To keep Gitmo open is costing tax payers MILLIONS.

So what did the spokesman for the CIA say when it came to using music as torture?
He said nuh-uh.

George Little, a CIA spokesman said:

“music was used only for security, rather than “punitive purposes”

And in a 2005 CIA document, it stated,

“loud music or white noise was needed “to mask sound and prevent communication among detainees”

So what tunes and artists made it to the Gitmo “top 20″?

According to the National Security Archive, they used anything from the Meow Mix jingle, to the Barney theme song. They used such artists as Marylin Manson to Britney Spears. Although the Meow Mix jingle and the Barney theme song both make me cringe and is enough to drive anyone buggy, at ANY volume… I wonder if the Meow Mix or the Barney people have a problem with the fact their music was used at Gitmo? I haven’t heard anything from either of them and I have to say, if they don’t have a problem with it, then I have a problem with them.

Why would they use the Meow Mix jingle and the Barney theme if it was just “to mask sound and prevent communication among detainees”?
And why were detainees subjected to “variable light patterns” while this music was played? Is the CIA going to say they wanted to have a disco effect for the detainees? Although it really wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

If the CIA claims are true, then why didn’t they just use classical music at non dangerous levels without light patterns? The term liar liar pants on fire comes to mind.

Another little pesky factor besides the CIA not having the permission of the artists to use their music, is the fact that the artist’s music was used as an interrogation tool.

So which artists are pissed and saying close Gitmo now ?
Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Brown, REM, Pearl Jam, Roseanne Cash just to name a few.


Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Brown

Roseanne Cash recently appeared on The Daily Show with John Stewart to tell everyone about the petition they have created which people can sign at www.closegitmonow.org

The BBC recently reported:

REM call for Guantanamo closure

Rock bands including Pearl Jam and REM have joined a coalition of musicians to support the US president’s efforts to close the Guantanamo Bay prison.

The National Campaign to Close Guantanamo, which also includes former military officers, launched on Tuesday.

Many of the artists who have signed up are angry that their music was used as an interrogation tool in the jail.

But CIA spokesman George Little said music was used only for security, rather than “punitive purposes”.

In a statement, REM said: “We have spent the past 30 years supporting causes related to peace and justice. To now learn that some of our friends’ music may have been used as part of the torture tactics without their consent or knowledge, is horrific. It’s anti-American, period.”

Other artists to sign up to the coalition include Jackson Browne, Steve Earle, Roseanne Cash, Billy Bragg, Bonnie Raitt and Rage Against The Machine.

On behalf of the campaign, the National Security Archive in Washington is filing a Freedom of Information Act request seeking classified records that detail the use of loud music as an interrogation device.

‘Terrify and punish’

A report published in November 2008 by the Senate Armed Services Committee report, has already made several references to the technique.

In one case interrogators played records to “stress” a prisoner, Mohamedou Ould Slahi, who believed music was forbidden.

In 2003, he was questioned while being “exposed to variable lighting patterns” and repeated plays of a song called Let the Bodies Hit the Floor by the band Drowning Pool.

Jayne Huckerby, from New York University’s Center for Human Rights and Global Justice, said loud music was also played at clandestine prisons run by the CIA.

Following an early information request, Ms Huckerby received a CIA document dated December 2005 in which the agency explained that the use of loud music or white noise was needed “to mask sound and prevent communication among detainees”.

She argued that such sounds were not a “benign security tool,” but a way “to humiliate, terrify, punish, disorient and deprive detainees of sleep, in violation of international law”.

According to the National Security Archive, tracks by AC/DC, Britney Spears, the Bee Gees and Marilyn Manson were used at Guantanamo.

The Meow mix cat food jingle, the Barney theme song and an assortment of Sesame Street tunes also were played into detainees’ cells.

But the CIA insisted any music was played “at levels far below a live rock band”.

And Major Diana Haynie, a spokeswoman for Joint Task Force Guantanamo, said loud music has not been used with detainees since the fall of 2003.

Barack Obama pledged to close the Guantanamo detention camp by January, but Republican opposition in Congress has made fulfilling that promise look less likely.

 

So one of the reasons that Gitmo remains open is due to Republican opposition?
Although I am certianly not surprised by this…. WHY ARE THEY OPPOSED?
What reasons could the Republicans have to want to keep Gitmo going?

The NY Times stated that the estimated annual cost to operate Guantánamo Bay is anywhere from $90 million to $118 million. There are 226 detainees left at Gitmo. That is a cost of $400.000 to $520.000 per detainee. To incarcerate a prisoner in a supermax prison would be $75,000 in the US. Is anyone paying attention to this simple math? Get the facts

At a time when the US is in such an economic mess due to the carnage that was left behind by the lovely Bush administration, perhaps the millions of dollars spent on keeping Gitmo open can be used elsewhere? Ya think?

Now before our comment section turns into a shouting match between Republicans and Democrats…..
and people telling me to get my facts straight, (I only report what is out there) remember that this article is about how horrible it was to use an artist’s music to torture people AND the fact that their music was used without their consent. Not to mention what it costs to keep Gitmo going.

So if you have a comment about Close Gitmo Now or the musicians who started the petition, then that is fine. But if you want to argue about what Obama has done or not done to clean up Bush’s mess that he left behind, or the BS spin and scare tactics that the Republicans are using when it comes to the health care plan, (you know who you are, you silly teabaggers) OR if you are a Michael Bolton fan, then please go argue elsewhere. *SNICKER*

Courtney Love Plans “To Sue The Sh*t Out Of Activision”


Wake Up Courtney! Time To Go To Court!

Courtney Love.
Just the name conjures up the feeling of Ewww.

Courtney has her knickers in a bunch (when are they not in a bunch?) over the way Activision used ex hubby Kurt Cobain’s image in Guitar Hero 5.

The agreement was to supposedly have Cobain sing only two songs in the game, which of couse incuded Smells Like Teen Spirit.  But Cobain’s character in the game is an unlockable character.


Cobain Ala Activision

For all you non gamers out there, an unlockable character means the gamer can make the image do other things. Like sing other performer’s songs.

So Love and former Nirvana band mates, David Grohl and Krist Novoselic, were not too tickled when they found out that Cobain is singing songs by Jon Bon Jovi and Bush in the game. (the band Bush that is, not Dubya, although that would be a riot)

Ex Nirvana band members were quoted about their dismay:

“While we were aware of Kurt’s image being used with two Nirvana songs, we didn’t know players have the ability to unlock the character,” they said.
“This feature allows the character to be used with any kind of song the layer wants. We urge Activision to do the right thing in ‘re-locking’ Kurt’s character so that this won’t continue in the future.”

Courtney called the avatar “vile” and “necrophilic” and Twittered:

” This Guitar Hero shit is breach of contract. I think Kurt would despise this game alone let alone this avatar.. We are going to sue the shit out of Activison”

When it comes to vile and necrophilic. Ms Love takes the cake.
We all know how vile she can be. And someone would have to be into necrophilia to be attracted to her these days.

As of late, Love has been looking mighty bad. The recent photo below, shows her beyond scrawny and way up there on the “Ewwww” scale.


Love Looking Like Death Warmed Over

 
I think it’s pretty cool that Activision agreed to include Cobain in their game at all. Love and ex band members should be thankful that Activision is keeping his memory and Nirvana’s music alive.

The ex band members are asking Activision to come up with a patch, so Cobain’s character stays locked. Fair enough, but a computer geek friend told me it can’t be done once the game is out. Don’t know if this is totally correct.

Love has her lawyer, Keith A. Finch on the case and he seems to think she indeed has a case.

Finch said,
“Activision was not given an unbridled right to use Kurt Cobain’s name and likeness. As for Cobain, his journals suggest that he’d be less than pleased about a game that shows him belting out “You Give Love A Bad Name”.
Writing about Bon Jovi in the late 1980’s, he issued a one word review: Evil.”

Well, I am not a fan of Bon Jovi myself, but I think the word evil to describe them is a bit silly and over the top. I am sure if Cobain was still alive today, I think his opinion would have matured a bit.

Besides, Nirvana was nothing to write home about. Nirvana themselves weren’t some ultra fabulous band. They were nothing more than a 90’s garage grunge band that literally “stepped in it”. And don’t even get me started on Love’s band “Hole”.

But hey, that’s my taste. Obviously if Nirvana sold over twenty-five million albums in the US, and over fifty million worldwide, they were very much admired.

But why some people continue to think that Cobain was some sort of iconic rock God is beyond me. He was a junkie who had a very short career, a raspy nothing voice and he had an average band. He met Love in 1990, they got married in 1992, and Cobain shot himself in 1994. (supposed self inflicted gun shot wound)
Many people blame Love for Cobain’s untimely demise. I guess we will never actually know the truth.

If you are driving around Aberdeen, Washington, you will see a sign which reads, “Welcome To Aberdeen Come As You Are”, which was purchased by the Kurt Cobain Memorial Committee back in 2004 as a tribute to Cobain. If you are not famaliar with Nirvana’s music… “Come As You Are” is of course one of their songs.

Let’s also not forget that Love and Cobain had a daughter, Francis Bean. I am sure her life has been far from enchanted due to her father’s death and her whacked out mother. 

So back to the lawsuit…
Ms. Love is not a stranger to lawsuits by any means. That is, people suing HER of course.

She was recently sued this past May by American Express for not paying $350,000 in charges. (gee I thought my card was bad)

Contactmusic.com wrote:

COURTNEY LOVE is facing a legal battle with American Express over the credit card company’s claims she has racked up more than $350,000 (£233,000) in unpaid charges.
The firm filed suit against Love in the U.S. District Court on Wednesday (27May09), demanding the rocker pay off the staggering debt on her Gold card.

The former Hole frontwoman had her plastic privileges suspended after she “failed and refused” to clear the balance, according to the lawsuit.
Love has been continuously struggling with her finances in recent years – it emerged in April (09) she had hired a team of private investigators to reclaim the millions of dollars she alleged were stolen from her late husband Kurt Cobain’s estate.
And just last year (08), Love was sued for $1 million (£667,000) by London & Co., an accounting firm which charged the star had failed to pay them profits from the sale of Cobain’s share of the Nirvana publishing catalogue.
A spokesperson for Love was unavailable for comment as WENN went to press.

 
Well, isn’t that interesting? She has two huge companies suing her.
Doesn’t stop there…
She also is being sued by her former body guard for $60,000.

TMZ wrote:

It costs a lot of money to keep the world safe from Courtney Love – her former bodyguards say she stiffed them out of $60,000 this year.

Screen International Security Services filed a lawsuit today in L.A. County Superior Court, claiming they provided “security services, in connection with the protection of Love, her family members, and her property” between April and August of this year.

SISS says Love never paid a penny for services rendered — totaling $58,222.50 — and are suing for the full amount plus interest.

Love’s attorney just sent us the following statement:

This lawsuit should be placed in the Wikipedia page next to chutzpah. It has no merit and is based on a private security company’s attempt to fleece a celebrity.

SISS is claiming it is owed money for providing around the clock security for Ms. Cobain and her daughter at the St. Ives home for a period of time she and her daughter were NOT living at that home but were living at the Chateau Marmont. SISS has no written agreement with Ms Cobain to support their claim and on its face it is ludicrous.

SISS was paid a substantial sum for the “service” it provided while they were living at that home. Despite knowing that Ms. Cobain and her daughter had moved out of the home they continued to provide security to an empty home by having someone sit in a car all day eating a ham sandwich while the Cobains were residing miles away!!!

AND her snarkiness doesn’t end there.
In 2007, Love was also quoted as saying,

 “I’m going to have a Christie’s auction,” to hock the bulk of Cobain’s belongings with a portion going to charity.”

I don’t know if this auction ever took place, I couldn’t find anything else about it.”

So do you think Love is really upset over this whole Guitar Hero thang? Or is she looking for some quick cash in all the wrong places? (see what I did there?)

Her lawsuit with Activision is starting to “smell like ”GLEAN” spirit to me”. *snicker*

Seems to me, that she has been living off Kurt’s fame and money for years, and doesn’t plan on stopping.
The lyrics from her song, “Celebrity” say it all.
Use Once and Destroy“.

Now don’t get me wrong. I am all for performers getting credit where credit is due. And if there is a huge copyright issue, then it should be dealt with.

I think Cobain being included in Guitar Hero 5 was a compliment and an honor to both Cobain and the remaining members of Nirvana. And now Cobain will be forever immortalized in the gaming world. If gamers want to be more respectful, I guess they can always choose for Cobain to only sing the two songs by Nirvana. Easy solution. Those who don’t care, will have him wailing Bon Jovi.

As far as Courtney Love?  
What about your daughter Francis Bean Courtney? 
Doesn’t she deserve better?
Clean up your act and grow up woman.
And for God’s sakes, wash your hands and clean those damn fingernails!

Dr. Phil And His Crew Accused Of Getting Their Sexy On With Former Patient

Looks like Dr. Phil has a wacky gold digger to contend with.

Shirley Dieu, is alleging that Dr. Phil AND his crew, held her captive, brainwashed her, touched her naughty bits, and also paraded a nude man in front of her when she partook in a Dr. Phil’s House show.

Wow! Where can I sign up? Sounds like one hell of a weekend! *snicker*

I only mentioned some of the more juicier claims by Shirley. There are a hell of a lot more. AND she waited two years to file the case after the supposed “incidents” occurred.
She claimed that she was too afraid. Now I can understand her being afraid of Oprah…. But Dr. Phil?

Oh wait… Oprah owns Dr. Phil’s butt. I guess her claim of being afraid does sound like a reasonable explanation now. I kid.

Shirley filed her lawsuit in LA yesterday, and she will be representing herself. *laughs holding sides*
I wonder how they kept a straight face when they saw her lawsuit?

Wow, representing yourself, huh Shirley?
No surprise there. What lawyer in their right mind would even touch this case with a ten foot pole?
After all Johnnie Cochran is gone. *snicker*

Apparently, Shirley is not a stranger to filing cases. She has a history of being slightly litigious to say the least AND to make this case more snarkier, she filed for bankruptcy last year. Sounds like Shirley is in need of some cash.

A snippette from People:

“It’s unclear how much she is seeking in damages but Dieu – who filed a malpractice suit against an Orange County hospital in 2002 and sued a car dealership in 2007 – is acting as her own attorney, and her filing is filled with misspellings and grammatical errors.”

“Misspellings and Grammatical errors?” Sounds like I filed it! *HA!*

Eonline had the whole story:

Dr. Phil’s Bedside Manner: Brainwashing, Groping, Falsely Imprisoning?

We don’t know what the disease was, but this is one instance where the treatment was definitely worse. Much, much, creepily worse, if the allegations are true.

Dr. Phil McGraw was on the receiving end of a bizarre and damning, to say the least, lawsuit yesterday, with a former female patient of his alleging that the TV doctor and select members of his production staff held her captive, brainwashed her and subjected her to constant exposure by a naked man, among other accusations.

As if that weren’t enough, she also claims that McGraw even once groped her during a therapy session.

All told, the 56-year-old Shirley Dieu is suing McGraw, Paramount Pictures, which produces his show and on whose lot the alleged captivity took place, two show producers and another doctor, for brainwashing, indecent exposure, illegal touching assault and battery, public ridicule and humiliation, mental and physical abuse, fraud, negligence and intentional harm, practicing without a license, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and preventing a witness from reporting a crime.

That’s it—one more batch of scandalous talk show host allegations and we’re looking at a trend.

Dieu is representing herself in the case and filed the suit in Los Angeles Superior Court yesterday over the incidents, which she claims went down almost exactly two years ago to the day. There’s no word on why she waited so long to file the suit, but more pressing legal matters could be to blame. Dieu filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and seems to have a rather sue-happy past.

As for the current list of alleged wrongdoings, Dieu claims they took place between Oct. 9 and Oct. 11, 2007.

While she does not specify why or for what ailment she sought Dr. Phil’s assistance, she claims she was held captive in his Hollywood studio, itself bordered by 12-foot walls and fences, where despite repeated attempts to escape she was told to stay and even physically prevented from leaving.

She claims she was unethically and illegally being treated by McGraw, who she claims is not licensed to practice in California. And while her diagnosis is unclear, she makes no bones about the prescription.

Dieu claims she was “forced to be in the same room with a completely naked live man while he exposed his entire naked body, genitals and all.”

During her involuntary stay, she says staff not only prevented her from leaving but cut the phone lines when she attempted to call 911. She says she was denied access to her cell phone and was routinely promised food, books and other items which never materialized.

At one point, she claims she “was told to sit in one spot for an unrealistic amount of time and told to not leave her seat.” When she attempted to get up, she was “touched inappropriately in order to prevent her from escaping.”

Dieu also says she was “brainwashed to trust her captures” and “programmed” to believe she was in a safe environment and receiving “real therapy from a licensed doctor.”

According to the court documents, she says she suffered public ridicule and humiliation when she was subjected to edited tapings that “mislead the public” and warped her depicted personality.

As for the TV doctor, she claims that during an Oct. 9 therapy session with Dr. Phil, she “was touched on her left breast.” She went on to say that she was afraid to say anything about it at the time, but that she was “touched improperly” by some of the other defendants (other than McGraw, she doesn’t name names).

 She claims the experience resulted in severe trauma and caused her to seek therapy—well, more therapy—and led to her hospitalization.

She is seeking unlimited general damages, punitive damages, exemplary damages, fees and court costs.

Now I am not a fan of Dr. Phil in ANY capacity.
First off, he is NOT a doctor. I find his voice very annoying, and I can not stand his ”Dr. Phil-isms”.
Like…”You are prettier than a speckled pup in a red wagon“. (someone actually said that to me in Tennesee once… I almost married him)

Sorry Shirley…
I just can’t picture Dr. Phil, ”the chrome dome” sexually or mentally abusing anyone. And it makes me queasy just to think about it. *shudder*
I wonder if his wife Robin calls him “Quick Draw McGraw”?
*double shudder*

I digress…
So I think it is safe to say that Dr. Phil won’t be spending any time in the pokey. I can be wrong though. 
You never know. I was a bit shocked over the whole David Letterman scandal.
But if I am wrong… I will eat my hat. (note to self… buy a hat)

After Dr. Phil was made aware of Shirley’s lovely lawsuit and he stopped laughing, (I can only assume) he had this comment:

“All of Shirley Rae Dieu’s claims are without merit. As with all of the occupants of the DR. PHIL House, Ms. Dieu participated voluntarily, having submitted her personal story with the hope that she could confront, and overcome, her individual issues.”

I think that is a nice way of Dr. Phil telling Shirley to stick it wear the sun don’t shine.

Perhaps Dr. Phil can offer Shirely some much needed counseling?
Oh snap!

Kevin Federline, Chump Who Left A Dump

No I am not talking about his bathroom habits or Britney.

It looks like K-Fed is a real dirty bird and may end up as a jail bird if he doesn’t pay up!

TMZ posted pictures on their website which revealed the total mess and supposed damage that K-Fed left behind when he moved out of his rental property in Tarzana Ca. Gee K-Fed, just because you lived in Tarzana, didn’t mean you had to live like Tarzan. *snicker*
 
So I guess it is a case of white trash, leaving trash. No surprise there.

Although TMZ may have exaggerated things a bit, the place did look pretty darn unsavory. Most of the pictures they posted were kind of boring though. *Yawn*
But we included the two pictures that made K-Fed look like a total slob.



Laundry Day At The Federlines?

Other pictures from TMZ were almost laughable, like a few tiles missing here and there, or paint wear on the cabinets with a few knobs missing.

There was one picture of an outdoor lamp that looks like there was a bird’s nest behind it. Not sure where they were going with that one. Did they think K-Fed built the nest? Oh that’s right, he is a dirty bird. *snicker*

Of course the mini fridge was pretty disgusting and there was a myriad of ciggy butts all over the property and a busted lamp and some chips in assorted things here and there.

So I guess collectively it must have looked pretty darn bad to the owners. So bad, that the owners are asking for over $100,000.00 in payback for repairs and back rent. Yup! K-Fed skipped out on SIX MONTHS rent. Whoopsy!

One-time rapper Kevin Federline, aka “K-Fed,” is being asked to pay over $100,000 in unpaid rent and damages for a ransacked home, TMZ reports.

Aren’t the parents supposed to clean up after the kids? One-time rapper Kevin Federline, aka “K-Fed,” is being asked to pay over $100,000 in unpaid rent and damages for a ransacked home, TMZ reports.

K-Fed has been accused of trashing a Tarzana, California home where he lived until this past May. The owners also claim Federline disappeared unexpectedly without paying his last 6 months of rent.

The owners are demanding $110,661 in damages and unpaid accommodation. The list of what has been wrecked is as bizarre as it is exhaustive. Via TMZ:

- Cigarette butts and empty beer bottles filling the gutters,
- A broken beer dispenser on the barbecue island,
- Cracked light covers,
- Mangled light posts,
- Cracked tiles,
- Drawings on the walls,
- Dead plants and trees due to failure to upkeep,
- Unapproved conversion of a room into a studio,
- Malfunctioning dishwasher with broken baskets,
- Smoke detectors that have been dismantled,
- Oil damage on the front driveway,
- Unapproved tinting of master bathroom windows,
- Missing garage door opener,
and the pièce de résistance
- Permanent spit marks on the exterior paint! No camels were reported on site.

The letter threatens to take K-Fed to court if he refuses to pay.

Federline, 31, is a dancer, rapper, fashion model and, ahem, actor. He was married to pop princess Britney Spears for two years before their highly-publicized divorce. They were also involved in an ongoing custody battle over sons Sean Preston and Jayden James Federline. There is no word about how clean the boys’ rooms are.

“Permanent spit marks” Huh? Maybe from chewing tobacco? Does K-Fed or his buddies partake in a little pinch between the cheek and gums? (that’s chewing tobacco for all you non-rednecks) if not, does spit actually stain paint? Ewww!

And lately, K-Fed has not exactly been the picture of health either, he is really packing on the pounds as you can clearly see.

I have read rumors that he was supposed to be on the upcoming VH1 Celebrity Fit Club Season 7, but then he denied those rumors.

But guess what? Celebrity Fit Club has just confirmed it.

Can it be that K-Fed is packing on the pounds on purpose so he can have a paying gig? It certainly looks that way to me. It seems awfully ironic that a person who has always looked very svelte, suddenly packs on the pounds and then is going to be on Celebrity Fit Club. Hmmm… I smell a rat.

Of course this is all speculation on my part. But I wouldn’t put it past Sean and Jayden’s baby daddy to supersize himself for the cash. Yes of course I know that the pictures prove he is portly now, but did he graze on food just so he can get on the show?

And if so… it further proves that reality TV has little reality.

He will also be appearing with his other ex, Shar Jackson as well as perpetual loser and Whitney Houston’s ex,Bobby Brown.

Egad, “Celebrity Fit Club” will do anything for ratings. Perhaps they can bring back Dustin Diamond (I hate Screech) with K-Fed and they can duke it out in the ring together. Now your talking ratings! I don’t know who I would root for. It’s  a toss up, but a double KO would be totally SWEET!

But seriously…

It’s time to grow up KEVIN. You’re over thirty, your career *cough* is toast, and your living like a slob. Your parenting skills have become pretty questionable now, (well, I should say have worsen) since you are not paying your bills and you turned a rental property into a total sh*t hole in your wake. Not cool when there are kids involved.

So to K-Fed… time to nut up or shut up.

Tawny Kitaen Busted For DUI, Here She Goes Again!

Looks like Tawny Kitaen just can’t stay out of trouble.

Tawny aka Julie “Tawny” Kitaen starred in Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks back in 1984. She was also in a movie that she is probably not too proud of called The Perils of Gwendoline in the Land of the Yik-Yak  aka Gwendoline in 1985 and then a horror flick, Witchboard in 1986.
Gwendoline was about:

” a 1985 erotic adventure based on a French comic strip. Stowing away on a China-bound freighter to search for her long-lost father, virginal Gwendoline (Kitaen) ends up in the clutches of randy sailors — till a daring adventurer (Brent Huff) saves her. Heading upriver to find Gwen’s dad, they soon crosses paths with the female warriors of the Yik Yak tribe.”

Wow! How she was able to get any work after that movie is pretty amazing. 

Tawny is most famous for her romp atop the hood of a jag in a video for Whitesnake. For all you youngins’ out there… Whitesnake was a big hair rock band back in the 1980’s.

The video she starred in was for their song “Here I Go Again” sung by her ex HUSBAND, lead singer. David Coverdale. (ick… sorry, he always grossed me out)
For a blast from the past, click here to watch a fuzzy version of her friskyvideo that guys are stil talking about today.

Her marriage to Coverdale only lasted a few years. And six years later in 1997, she married St. Louis Cardinals pitcher, Chuck Finley. They had two children Wynter and Raine.


Earlier Picture Of Much Happier Times

But trouble came knocking again when Tawny was arrested for beating Finely with one of her stiletto heels while he was driving and she was on the passenger seat.  MEOW!
Yeah, I know all the guys out there are probably thinking that sounds crazy sexy and hot. But sorry guys, it’s just crazy. And that little tiff could have killed the both of them.

Needless to say, three days later and not surprisingly, Finely filed for a divorce, which ended their five year marriage. And it’s also when the custody battle started for their kids.

Tawny continued her spiral down with continuing her addiction to drugs and alcohol. She starred in the sixth edition of Surreal Life and I remember watching that show. She really came off as quite the whack job. It was evident that she was high as a kite on that show. (well to me anyways)

She continued her reality show career on a stint with Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. I also watched this show.


Tawny with Dr. Drew

She was totally different on this show compared to her behavior on the Surreal Life. I thought she was doing pretty good, by the end of the show and she also “graduated”. (of course we all know to take these shows with a grain of salt and that the reality part of these shows is pretty slim)

On VH1’s Celebrity Rehab website , it read:

 Tawny thanked fellow rehabbers for giving her hope, and friendship, something she really hasn’t had in the past.

I wonder what ex husband Finely thought about that statement?

Tawny then went on to an outpatient program in Newport Beach, so that she can be close to her family. Sure glad that she didn’t pick to go Scientology’s phony Narconon program and I hope she never does. Why am I mentioning Scientology? Because Scientology pounced on another rehabber from the show, Jeff Conoway when he left the show early.

Thanks to fellow Grease star, John Travolta. Travolta gave Conoway a whole library of Scientology books and the service of a Scientology ”auditor” who visited Conoway almost every day. Out of the pan and into the fire I say. Shame on Travolta for getting Conoway mixed up in the cult. Just utterly sickening.

Even though Conoway may have been tricked into thinking that Scientology actually helped him kick his addiction, their success rate for helping drug addiction through their Purification Rundown is actually like 6%. Not the trumped up numbers they lie about.

I haven’t heard anything further on Conoway and Scientology. I hope he dumped them like a lead balloon and finds some REAL help and without the cameras rolling this time.

Let’s hope the Scientology vultures keep their mitts off Tawny, as she would be the perfect candidate with her rocky past, her fragile state of mind and her addictions. Which to Scientology…Tawny would be “fresh meat” and prime for the picking.

So what is going on with Tawny now?
Well that brings us up to her latest escapade of getting pulled over for alleged  *snicker* DUI.

Eonline wrote:

Better get Dr. Drew on the phone.

Celebrity Rehab alum Tawny Kitaen was taken into custody Saturday afternoon near John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, Calif., on suspicion of driving under the influence.

The 48-year-old former actress/reality star allegedly “made contact with officers after operating a vehicle while under the influence,” according to Sgt. Shontel Sherwood of the Newport Beach Police Department.

Kitaen, who has also appeared on VH1’s The Surreal Life, was busted in 2006 on drug possession charges, after police found 15 grams of cocaine in her San Juan Capistrano apartment.

The Whitesnake music video babe struck a plea deal with prosecutors in which they agreed to drop the felony drug charges after she completed a drug treatment program.

Geez Tawny!
Two failed marriages, drug addiction, alcohol problems, busted for felony drug possession and two rehab failures. Yikes! Aren’t you done yet?

So I wasn’t too surprised when I saw that the LA Times reported this past March that she put up her house up for sale in Newport Beach with an asking price is $3.45 million. *shakes head*

Egad Tawny!
Get your sh*t together! You have two kids!
You have obviously ignored several GIANT wake up calls.
Save what’s left of your life and got off that roller coaster before you become a statistic.

If not for you, then do it for your two kids who deserve to have their Mom be there for them.

Celebrities Ban Together For Public Service Announcement Spoof On Health Insurance Companies

Will Ferrell, Thomas Lennon (Lt. Jim Dangle on Reno 911), and Don Faison (Kirk from Scrubs) and a host of other celebs got together to convey their message against the super rich health care executives by starring in this Public Service Announcement (spoof video) which was listed on Funny Or Die. 

It was sponsored by MoveOn.Org which started out in 1988 as an email group and blossomed, well, more like exploded. As of 2009, MoveOn has a membership of 5.2 million, with 20 full-time and 20 part-time staffers. Not too shabby!
Wikipedia says MoveOn.Org is:

An American non-profit progressive, liberal public policy advocacy group and political action committee which has raised millions of dollars for candidates of the Democratic Party in the United States. Formed in response to the impeachment of President Bill Clinton,it has been cited in some accounts as a factor which helped propel the Democratic Party to power in the 2006 midterm elections.

This video received two million views in two days! It’s funny stuff!

Examiner.com wrote:

Celebrity PSA video about Obama’s health insurance plan gets 2 million views in 2 days.
With celebrities like Will Ferrell, John Hamm and Donald Faison opening the video with a “Something terrible is happening” chant.

“Health insurance executives are getting a bad rap,” Will Ferrell explains, dead pan.

“We need to remember who the real victims are,” Donald Faison, best known for his role in Clueless, says.

John Hamm fades into the viral video in black and white and explains: “Health insurance executives.”

A variety of stars then go on to explain in fits of sarcasm that if their little boy falls off his bike, he should pay for it himself and stop whining.

The US is in a complete tug of war over the skyrocketing health care costs and Obama’s plans to fix it. This video is a refreshing and funny look at just how wrong it is to keep padding the pockets of these health insurance companies.

I wish there were more PSA announcements that would show just how ridiculous it is to not support a total change in the health care system. 

Obama may not have all the answers right now. Hell, he has been in office for less than a year, and I am not saying everything he does will go right, but people are expecting miracles right off the bat in a very short time. They seem to have a very short memory of the mess that was left behind. The US citizens’ impatience totally boggles my mind. 

My wish is for Democrats and Republicans to ban together and fix what has been so wrong for so long.
Oh to dream…

Randy Quaid and Wife Skip Out On $10,000 Hotel Bill

This story really puzzled me. I really liked Randy Quaid. I enjoyed him in the FIRST National Lampoon’s Vacation and of course Kingpin, just to name a few, but I  had no idea that Quaid and his wife were such scumbags.

I was shocked to read that Randy and his wife skipped out of a local hotel after racking up a $10,000 bill. I was more shocked when I read that this wasn’t the first time they did this and that they were on the lamb.

They were later caught and arrested in Texas. They were charged with three felony counts. One of those was for burglary. WTF did they take ALL the towels from the hotel? Having their credit card declined was the icing on the cake. Wow.

Either they are flat broke, or maybe drugs are involved? I find it hard to believe that the Quaids would just do this for kicks.

So I dug a little and found out they also went after CBS a long time ago and also went after the makers of Brokeback Mountain.

Hmmm… I am starting to see a pattern of delusional thinking and a “the world owes us everything” complex.

 Eonline wrote:

It seems not even Hollywood stars are above the odd dine-and-dash. Or, in Randy Quaid’s  case, resort-and-dash.

The Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Department has issued arrest warrants for the actor and his wife, Evi Quaid, after the duo allegedly skipped out on a $10,000-plus bill at a local hotel.

“The three charges that both are facing are burglary, defrauding an innkeeper and conspiracy,” sheriff’s spokesman Drew Sugars tells E! News. “All three are felonies in this case.”

While the reason for the defraud charge is apparent, the conspiracy and burglary counts were included as officers believe that the couple—who seem to have a history have a history of this type of behavior—never had any intention of paying for their stay.

Authories have not identified the hotel in question, but, according to RadarOnline, back in June the couple cozied up at the ultraluxe San Ysidro Ranch, only to be notified soon after their arrival that their credit card had been declined. The Quaids, who were nonetheless allowed to continue with their stay, told hotel management they were waiting for a replacement card to be sent to them.

In the meantime, they continued racking up their five-figure tab, eventually departing from the ranch a week later. Unfortunately, as went the Quaids, so went any hope of payment.

After what the hotel claims were multiple attempts at recouping the bill, management turned to police, who launched an investigation into the matter.

Should the on-the-lam duo be caught, their bail has been set at $20,000 each.

Randy Quaid no longer has a publicist and, like the sheriff’s department, we were unable to reach him for comment.

UPDATE: The Quaids were arrested in Marfa, Texas, Thursday for allegedly rooming and running at a local hotel. Bail has been set at $20,000 each.

To add to the drama, some snipettes from RadarOnline :

RadarOnline.com spoke to a source close to the investigation, who confirmed that Randy and Evi also owe the Hotel Bel-Air $17,000 in unpaid hotel bills and are holding on to a rental car that has been reported missing by Hertz Rent-A-Car.

Sources tell RadarOnline.com that Randy and Evi failed to return their rental car and are currently keeping it stashed away at their home in Marfa, Texas.

 
Back in 2008, RadarOnline reported:

26 members of the Lone Star Lovecast claimed Randy physically and verbally abused them, the Actors’ Equity Association banned the “Brokeback Mountain” star — brother of actor Dennis Quaid — for life and fined him more than $81,000 in February 2008.

 
From TMZ:

Randy Quaid’s wife allegedly went nuts on four people, claiming they were all a part of a Hitleresque plot against her husband.

Hitleresque plot?  *holding my sides while laughing* 
Yeah, ok Evi…. Paranoid much?

I guess I have been living under a rock. I had no idea that the Quaids were such loons. Randy Quaid has been in a myriad of movies over the years. Perhaps his hook up with nutty wife Evi has caused him to go off the deep end and throw his career away. 

Even if they are off their nuts, do the Quaids actually think that they are above the law and wouldn’t eventually be caught? Or are they drug addicts and just don’t give a crap?

I mean, this isn’t the 1970’s when stars got away with a lot more shenanigans way back when. What makes them think they can get away with running up hotel bills, stealing from hotels and not returning a rental car? *shakes head*. Sounds like they could be fueling a hefty cocaine addiction to me. Just saying….

In the words from the theme song from the 1970’s show Baretta … “Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time”
(Speaking of which… Rober Blake? *cough* )

Not quite sure if the courts will only be giving the Quaids slaps on the wrists. Considering that this was not the first time they did this, their history of nuttiness and the amounts they owe these hotels are pretty darn steep.

If they only receive a slap on the wrist, then I blame the courts for letting stars live above the law. It happens all the time. Hello George Michael and other stars! You know who you are.

I sincerely doubt a slap on the wrist would act like much of a deterrent from the Quaids pulling another Bonnie and Clyde in the near future. I think their crimes would only get bigger.

Hey Quaids! Why not knock off a bank next? Who cares? After all you are the Mighty Quaids! Right?

I don’t think I will ever look at Randy Quaid again the same. And Evi? Never cared about her in the first place. Throw her punk ass in jail.

Randy on the other hand, seems to be getting more and more nuttier like his alto ego, “Cousin Eddy” every day. Ewwwww!

Pamela Anderson’s Fight Against Kentucky Fried Chicken


Pamela Anderson with Henrik Winther

Pamela Anderson has a bone to pick with Kentucky Fried Chicken. She is a member of PETA. Although she has been criticized in the past for being a bit of a hypocrite when it comes to PETA, as far as what she has worn and eaten, I have to say that  this fight against Kentucky Fried Chicken is justified in my opinion.

Now I am not a big fan of corporate food chains to begin with. The most I ever venture into is a Crackle Barrel or Burger King if I am on the highway and the choices of meal stops are very limited. I haven’t been in a Kentucky Fried Chicken since the late 1970’s, and after watching the KFC chicken processing video, I never will.

I had the misfortune of suffering through the entire video of Kentucky Fried Chicken’s processing plant which you can view at  www.kentuckyfriedcruelty.com and I was totally horrified to say the least. Workers throwing chickens against the walls, stomping on them alive, clipping their beaks off on arrival, over crowding, boiling them alive and the tale of terror goes on.

Pamela Anderson has contacted Kentucky Fried Chicken and has asked them to be more humane in their processing plants and and even asked Kentucky’s governor to remove a bust of Col. Sanders from the State Capitol Building. Pam went as far as to contact Henrik Winther, president of Rostik, KFC’s Russian partners and asked them to watch the slaughter house video.

Pam has appeared in billboard adds in her “lettuce bikini top” and TV spots asking people to boycott Kentucky Fried Chicken until they change their evil ways.

Pamela is not alone in her fight against KFC. Many celebrities as well as musicians have joined her fight. From Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, Tommy Lee (natch), and Pink, to the Smashing Pumpkins and Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders. For the full list of  almost 60 celebs that support this boycott click here. And some of the celebs have provided short videos. These stars are asking people to “Kick the Bucket” and sign the petition.

Kentucky Fried Cruelty Activists explain their beef with KFC:

The roughly 1 billion chickens killed each year for KFC’s buckets are crammed by the tens of thousands into excrement-filled sheds that stink of ammonia fumes. The birds’ legs and wings often break because they’re bred to be too top-heavy and because workers carelessly shove them into transport crates and shackles.

Chickens’ throats are slit and the animals are dropped into tanks of scalding-hot water to remove their feathers, often while they are still conscious and able to feel pain.

KFC lets frustrated factory-farm and slaughterhouse workers handle live birds, so many of the animals end up being sadistically abused. At a KFC “Supplier of the Year” slaughterhouse in West Virginia, workers were documented tearing the heads off live birds, spitting tobacco into their eyes, spray-painting their faces, and violently stomping on them. This was discovered more than two years after KFC promised PETA that it was taking animal welfare seriously.

KFC hides behind its Animal Welfare Advisory Council, even though five members of the council have resigned in frustration. One of them, Adele Douglass, told the Chicago Tribune that KFC “never had any meetings. They never asked any advice, and then they touted to the press that they had this animal-welfare advisory committee. I felt like I was being used.”

And How KFC Can Clean Up Their Act:

PETA wants KFC to adopt the animal welfare programdeveloped by five members of its own animal welfare board. These advisors are the world’s top poultry experts; they advise the meat industry in North America and Europe and believe that KFC can—and should—adopt them. KFC has yet to do any of the following:

Adopt the “Animal Care Standards” program. This would lower the amount of ammonia in the air in factory farms, improve the living spaces and lighting in chicken sheds, prohibit the intentional starving of breeding birds, and ensure that birds are provided with mental and physical stimulation.

Switch to controlled-atmosphere killing (CAK). This would prevent live birds in slaughterhouses from being abused by workers, having their throats slit, or being scalded while they were still conscious. CAK would also improve conditions for workers and decrease contamination levels in chickens’ flesh.

Switch to mechanized chicken gathering. This would drastically reduce the number of broken bones and painful bruising that birds endure when factory-farm workers carelessly throw them into transport crates.

Breed for health rather than rapid growth, and stop feeding drugs to chickens. This would reduce the rate at which birds suffer painful, crippling diseases and injuries, such as broken legs, heart attacks, and lung failures.

Make all welfare standards transparent and verifiable. This would simply ensure that the animal welfare program is being adhered to through announced and unannounced independent audits (the results of which must be made available to the public through KFC’s Web site).
 

Seems like all reasonable requests to me. So if people have to pay a little more for their bucket of bird, then so be it. Besides, these places are only adding to the ever mounting and staggering problem of obesity in the US. Fast food chains play a huge part in the rising cost of health care due to all the health problems associated with being overweight.

Now I am not a fan of Pamela Anderson’s one iota. I can write an entire article on her that would rip her a new one as far as her and Tommy Lee’s shenanigans over the years, besides her overall phony fake parts appearance. And some will say she does all this for the publicity. Whatever. It’s still a good cause and KFC can certainly be less cruel. I know all slaughter houses are a nightmare, and I am certainly not dismissing all the other cruelties that go on in other places, but simple measures can be taken to make them less cruel. And I will admit that I am a bit of a hypocrite due to the fact that I am not a vegetarian myself, but I do try to limit my eating habits.

Many people think PETA goes way too far, but I agree with what they have asked of KFC, and I saw the horrific processing video. And since I HATE corporate fast food chains already… this campaign gets my vote. I am also in full agreement with PETA’s stance on any circus that uses elephants and big cats in their shows. Go to the Cirque baby! Animal free circuses all the way!

I digress….
So before you pull in to that next drive thru… stop and think of what you are supporting. If the chicken processing video you watched of your next lunch or dinner being prepped didn’t bother you, perhaps when you order that next KFC Chunky Chicken Pot Pie , Mmm mmm, that has 770 calories and 42 grams of fat,  and 2,160 mgs of sodium, will make you think twice.

For all the caloric, fat content and sodium levels of all KFC’s menu items, go here, and feel ill. Check out the stats on other fast food menu items too. I guarantee you won’t be making as many trips as you used to!
