Massachusetts Teen Pregnancy Pact: Unlucky or Morons

Glosslip’s been railing against this upsurge in unmarried pregnancies in Hollywood for a while now, and then to make matters worse, we had Jamie Lynn Spears who gets pregnant at 16 while still starring on her Nickelodeon show “Zoey 101″. We haven’t even bothered to mention the explicit sexual content on teen shows, movies or sitcoms. And let’s not forget the over-sexualization of young girls as exhibited by Disney’s “wholesome” young women like Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens, who’ve both had risque photos leaked out on to the web. But now, we have these numbskulls in Massachusetts pretty much bragging about having sex before they are even adults and out of high school.

The above video interview with one of the 17 pregnant teens who is part of the alleged “pregnancy pact” and her 20-year old boyfriend (she’s 17) illustrates what’s wrong with today’s society. Kids who think it’s perfectly acceptable to be having sex, getting pregnant and dating guys who aren’t even in high school anymore. And when they asked the expectant 20-year old father why he thinks there are so many pregnant girls at his girlfriend’s high school, his response is “they’re unlucky I guess.”

Unlucky has nothing to do with it. How about just plain old irresponsible and immature. That’s what these girls are and the boys who had sex with them. I know teens have sex and sometimes people get pregnant, but this is getting to be regoshdamndiculous.

I blame Hollywood, a lack of family values and plain old-fashioned lazy parenting. Man, do I sound old and out of it.

Oh, and don’t get me started on that condescending dickhead interviewing them. Those two knuckleheads are lucky I wasn’t interviewing them, they’d both be in tears crying to their mama. I do NOT play.

Parenting isn’t “FUN” y’all. It’s hard work, it’s a thankless job much of the time, it robs you of your youth (and sometimes your will to go on) and in the end, assuming you do an ok job, you get to spend your retirement on sending these “blessings” to college.

Sure it’s an important job that needs to be done, and that’s why it should be left to adults. We’re already miserable, what’s some barfing, pooping, sass-talk and sleep-deprivation?

I can hardly stomach the blatant stupidity of these kids.

Shia LeBeouf Says He’s “Embarrassed” By Slur, But Context Is Everything

Shia LaBeouf, costar of the new Indiana Jones and The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull film, and star of last summer’s Transformers movie, is HOT, with a capital H O T, but sadly, like most young stars in Hollywood, he has a penchant for being a major dumbass at times.

Yesterday, a YouTube video showing a young Shia drunk off his ass, screwing around with some friends surfaced on the internet. LeBeouf, who was goading his friend in what can only be described as a teen prank, called him of them a “f*ggot”. Now, E! is reporting that Shia is “embarrassed” by the video and his rep issued a statement:

“The videotape that is currently being circulated is several years old and captures Shia playing a game among friends in which he uses a derogatory word toward a friend,” LaBeouf’s rep tells me exclusively. “He regrets having used the word in any capacity and is very embarrassed that this footage is being seen by anyone.”

That last sentence is the clincher. If you watch the video (it’s been pulled from YT) the real issue here is excessive drinking and stupidity. It’s pretty doubtful that Shia is anti-gay or that he thinks his friend exhibits signs which demonstrate any “gay-like” qualities. Essentially, Shia was doing what most boys at that age do: acting like an idiot.

To take this whole thing out of context makes light of real bigots and gay-bashers I feel. While Shia should understand he’s in the limelight and exercise some control over himself, I do NOT feel this incident should imply anything inherently evil about Shia, except perhaps he can’t handle his liquor. And considering his family history, he might be better off not drinking at all.

P.S. Shia, you might want to get better friends, you know, the kind that don’t sell you out.

File this under “mountain out of a mole-hill”.

“Sex and The City” Film Features A Cameo By Indie Pop Group The Weepies

Not so long ago, my sister, an avid music listener and the foundation for my music taste (she’s older and I used to steal her records, HAHA, you can’t do anything about it now sis!) turned me on to The Weepies, a duo featuring a folk/pop sound and their song “Gotta Have You” and I loved it.

Well, it seems their sweet indie sound has garnered them a fair amount of soundtrack work (songs from Say I Am You have been featured on many popular TV shows, including Grey’s Anatomy, Everwood, One Tree Hill, Scrubs, The Riches, How I Met Your Mother, Gossip Girls, GRΣΣK and Kyle XY) on both the small screen AND now the big screen.

A secret source passed this on to us:

The Weepies In The City?

Not only is The Weepies song ‘All This Beauty’ featured on the Sex & The City movie soundtrack, the band members themselves make a CAMEO in the movie! Look for Carrie and Charlotte out on the town drinking martinis at a NY hotspot where The Weepies just happen to be performing! Sarah Jessica Parker, herself, was even heard humming the tune during filming!

You can hear “All This Beauty” here.

While k and I haven’t seen the big screen version of “Sex and The City” yet, there was much discussion of this hideous ensemble worn by SITC star Sarah Jessica Parker at the premiere yesterday. Seriously, WTF?

No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine, no amount of crack, no amount of crying will ever make that outfit not look ridiculous.

Close Call For Lindsay Lohan, Sex Tape Not Her…This Time

lindsay_lohan1.jpg
It’s sort of ironic that just last night I made a reference to famous people being caught on film doing naughty things, using Lindsay Lohan as some kind of reference point for sluts caught being slutty.

And as the sun rises on a new day, what have we here…..is a story about none other than our sweet little LiLo (or a grainy facsimile of) allegedly engaged in oral sex on what is said to be her one time boy-toy, English cad Calum Best.

notlindsaylohan.jpgThe photo was too grainy to really tell who it is, but it would hardly be some kind of stretch of the imagination to suggest somewhere out in this great big world video exists of Lindsay Lohan giving somebody, ANYBODY, a slobbery knobsicle. The odds that a sex tape featuring Lindsay Lohan DOESN’T exist are probably too astronomical to even calculated.

As the story goes (and they all sound the same in these sex tape scandals) Lindsay doesn’t remember being filmed and is freaked out such a thing may exist. According to a source, Calum forwarded the video to some friends and they leaked it to the media.

Fortunately for Lindsay, celeb site, The Blemish, was able to debunk this rumor. But rest assured, as the sands of time pass through the hour glass, so to will the video of Lindsay Lohan caught on film emerge. Think I am being to harsh?

I offer exhibit A. below. This is Lindsay when she KNOWS she’s being filmed. I can only imagine what she’s like when she’s just chillin’ out with some “close friends.”

Oscar Pwns Paris

parishouseofwax.jpg

That’s because everyone’s favorite nottie, Paris Hilton, has been banned from the Oscars.

Yep, you read it correctly…Paris has been given the old heave-ho by Academy Awards organizers and told that she’s not wanted there…mainly because her latest film The Hottie and the Nottie totally tanked at the box office, bringing in about $25,000 (or $225 per theater showing it).  I mean, how far down on the level of bad do you have to descend to be completely and utterly snubbed by the very people who are as close to your peers as you’ll ever have?

The Daily Star said it best, I can’t possibly put it any better than this, and I’m not even going to try:

Paris Hilton’s fairy godmother has furnished her with a £2million [$3.9M USD] outfit for the Oscars.

But the wonky-eyed Cinderella won’t be going to the ball.

The blonde irritant, 27, has been leaking her eyes all over ugly sister Nicky, 24, after being refused a chance to get her publicity fix at the swish ceremony next Sunday.

Ever the presumptuous and stingy carbuncle, Paris blagged a bum-clenchingly expensive dress and diam-onds from designer Kira Plastinina.

But her latest movie The Hottie And The Nottie has been voted the worst in history by users of film bible IMDB. So organisers of the ceremony have pointed out that giving her an invite would be like sending Jim Davidson a VIP ticket to a Gay Pride party.

Our man in the pumpkin said: “She cried hot, salty tears when she was banned from the Oscars.

“She’s desperate to be taken seriously as an actress and hoped she would be able to network with the film bods.”

Unfortunately, Paris’s greatest screen glory was in night-vision in her infamous 2004 grumble flick 1 Night In Paris which she made with her equally wooden ex Rick Salomon, 40. Rather gallingly for Paris, she actually had to do real work to promote her latest offering to the silver screen, which sees her push the boundaries of character acting as the “Hottie”.

A gossiping mouse squeaked: “She’s tempted to go to the parties afterwards, but might wear her trademark brunette wig to save her dignity.”

So if any Prince Charmings find a glass slipper by Chateau Marmont sniff the OdorEater for traces of Paris.

PWNED!

More Second-Rate Production Videos From Scientology From Their Obliterating Psychiatry Party

This video is a precursor to the “David Miscavige Scientology Obliterates Psychiatry” video we posted on Thursday. Sadly, it provides nothing but yet another look at the Church’s over-the-top “pump up the members” propaganda speak.

Although the cheesiness in and of itself is worth a chuckle.

Thanks to Enturbulation.org for their continued efforts to provide evidence and knowledge on this sinister organization.

Now, if only I could find a way to join the forums.

I Blame The Church Of Scientology For This Fiasco

travolta.jpg

Since I about killed myself last week delving into the artfully orchestrated and seemingly-sinister Church of Scientology, I had to take a break. That kind of evil overload will drain a person of their will to live. But clearly, ACTUALLY being a Scientologist, like the once-handsome, now-bizarre looking John Travolta, will genuinely suck the life, color and hair out of you.

Only to have it replaced with something even Xenu and L. Ron Hubbard wouldn’t approve of.

Scientology is NOT funny. But that thing on John Travolta’s head is. Why does he have two different colors of hair? Seriously, what is up?

Fox News’ John Gibson Apologizes For Being An Insensitive A**

Forgive me for not giving a crap about this nutjob’s “apology.” Apologies only count when you decide to do it on your own because you realize you have hurt or offended someone, not because you’ve been forced in to it, due to overwhelming pressure from higher-ups.

Not only did this hateful buttplug cheapen Heath Ledger’s death, an absolutely crass, cruel and pointless thing to do, but he’s been making fun of gay people for some time now. Haven’t we had enough of this right-wing based agenda of hate?

Here’s the original clip where John mocks Heath’s death, and makes fun of his one-time role playing a gay/bi-sexual cowboy in the critically acclaimed film “Brokeback Mountain.”


But wait, there’s more…

Sorry, I can’t blame this one on anything but selfishness.  Here’s Brit’s parking in a two handicapped spots on her little jaunt to Petco on Wednesday.

And there’s nothing further I can say, because any further elaboration is totally unnecessary.

Scientologist Suggests Barack Obama, Condi Rice and Al Sharpton Better Suited Sweeping Offices, Than Running For Them

condi.jpgbarack.JPGsharpton_mug.jpg

Just when you think the Church of Scientology couldn’t get any more bizarre, they go and do something like this.

The article from today’s NYDN’s Gategrasher quotes best-selling author (and next week’s Glosslip Radio guest) Ian Halperin from his upcoming “undercover” expose on the Church of Scientology. From Ben Widdiecombe’s article:

Have you been wondering who Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, who died in 1986, would vote for to be President?

Investigative journalist Ian Halperin has. The best-selling author is about to publish “Hollywood Undercover,” his exposé of the controversial church. But when he asked a Scientology recruiter in Los Angeles the question, he received the most offensive response imaginable.

“He said, ‘I can tell you who shouldn’t be President - Barack Obama, Condoleezza Rice and the Rev. Al Sharpton. They should not be allowed to run for office, they should be sweeping the office.”

Clearly we can imagine the Church’s response to this story will go something like “The views expressed by one radical member of the church in no way reflect the views of the Church itself. The Church embraces people of all ethnic and racial backgrounds are is proud of it’s multi-rational membership.” Or some such wishy-washy backtracking nonsense.

And then they will likely hire some Scientology goon to shadow whoever made that statement and that person will POOF! vanish into thin air. Think I am kidding? Don’t be too sure. I have written several stories about Scientology over the years and not so coincidentally, have been contacted by members of the Church more than once, who were quite savvy about where I lived and what I’ve been up to. Nothing overtly threatening, just an air of “weirdness.”

These past couple weeks have been a difficult time for the Church with some very inflammatory assertions being leveled at the Church, by yet another best-selling author, biographer to the stars, Andrew Morton. While some of Morton’s claims seem a bit outlandish, including one suggesting Tom and Katie Cruise’s daughter Suri is the product of some creepy insemination process using L.Ron Hubbard’s frozen sperm, to a secret COS mission to take over Germany, the media itself seems to be in agreement on one thing: The Church of Scientology isn’t exactly what you’d call “kosher.”

Hopefully, Ian’s new book, which has him posing as “as a gay man wishing to be “cured” by Scientology” will in fact, shed some light on what goes one behind close doors. Halperin also “aims to expose the prejudice of the church,” which clearly exists considering the above statement about Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Senator (and popular presidential candidate) Barack Obama and Reverend Al Sharpton.

Oh, and I’d be quite remiss in not mentioning this past week’s leaked Scientology Indoctrination videos featuring an impassioned and completely unhinged Tom Cruise’s fervent proselytizing of the powers of Scientology from website Gawker. Whom, btw, were immediately hit with a cease and desist from COS lawyers. So far, the video remains available on their website, but who knows for how long.

Be sure to tune in to next Sunday’s Glosslip Radio show when we can talk to Ian himself about what he saw and heard during his investigative undercover reporting on the Church of Scientology.

Update: As I anticipated, the Scientologists and their feverish paranoid masses have tried to refute the claims of the COS being a bunch of racists xenophobes, so I was presented a quote direct from L. Ron Hubbard himself to his second wife. Thanks to Ian for the quote. There’s also some other interesting quotes noted by barb in the comments section below. iI recommend you check it.

L. Ron Hubbard to second wife: “You shouldn’t be scrubbing the floor on your hands and knees. Get yourself a nigger; that’s what they’re born for”.
