The whole Duggar family is no stranger to the limelight. They have been featured on TV, magazines, newspapers and every member of the family is used to the coverage. Last year, Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar announced that they were expecting their 19th child. Naturally, they were once again exposed to publicity.
On December 10, 2009, Michelle gave birth to Josie Brooklyn. She was born prematurely, at only 25 weeks’ gestation. The much awaited birth of the Duggars’ 19th child was a mixture of ...
The popular singing contest is back on air, much to the delight of its ardent followers. This season is a very important one for American Idol as it seems to be a defining period. For one, longtime judge Paula Abdul exited the stage after the previous season. Various celebrities guested as judges and now it is Ellen Degeneres who has taken Paula’s place permanently.
Now it seems that American Idol is to be dealt another blow: judge Simon Cowell is leaving after this season! The ...

Santa knows if you’ve been bad or good, and gives you presents accordingly. Apparently, actor Charlie Sheen has been bad this year, and he got a different kind of Christmas present this year: an arrest. A report from Aspen states that the star was arrested Friday in relation to charges of domestic abuse.
The police report mentions that Charlie Sheen is being held on suspicion of second-degree assault, menacing, and criminal mischief. The first two are felonies, while the last is a mere misdemeanor. The incident/s happened in ...
No way, right? That was my first reaction when I read bits and pieces online about Oprah possibly canceling her long time TV show. After all, Oprah (the show) has become one of the most popular – if not THE most popular – talk shows all over the world.
As they say, though, if there is smoke, then there is fire. So what is the reason for this “rumor” going around? The Los Angeles Times reported that Oprah recently named Lisa Espramer as her creative chief:
The highly ...
Let me ask you a hypothetical question. If Pacman were to go against King Kong, who would you put your money on? Off the top of your head, if you were thinking of the “original” characters, you’d probably say King Kong, right? Then again, if we were talking about the Pacman and King Kong of boxing – which we actually are – then your answer just might take on a different turn.
King Kong is how boxing coach Freddie Roach called Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto, the latest opponent of ...
They say that if you are a genius, if you are truly exceptionally talented, you can be forgiven most anything. I beg to disagree. More so when the person in question is actually not at all that exceptional. Talented maybe; even extremely talented. But I wouldn’t go as far as to say that Kanye West is exceptionally talented. And even if he were, his latest stunt at the MTV Video Music Awards cannot be excused in any plane of thought or existence. Folks, ...
The US entertainment industry mourns the loss of a great actress... Tony Award-winning actressNatasha Richardson. Such a lovely and kindhearted actress who was well known for her role in The Parent Trap, where she played as the mother of "twins" played by Lindsay Lohan.
CNN reports Natasha's death today after a severe head injury while skiing north of Montreal. She wasn't wearing a helmet, sad to say, when she was skiing. She had a "normal" fall during a beginner's skiing lesson, she was seen ...
This lady is soooo cool! We watched the movie last weekend and all I can say is that everyone was laughing so loud you couldn't hear the movie no more. Madea Goes to Jail is a movie you shouldn't miss if you need a great time with friends. I thought it would be at least all slapstick comedy, but no, the plot was good and so were the actors. Most specially lead actor... or lead actress Tyler Perry.
It's just a little too unfortunate that this didn't make it to the Oscars, ...
This is sad news for American Idol hopeful Joanna Pacitti, as she has recently been disqualified from the top 36 show semi-finalists. The show has cited that Joanna knows at least two show employees, and to avoid any suggestion of unfairness they had decided to just do the "right" thing.
The decision was made because Pacitti had once worked with a person subsequently hired by 19 Entertainment, which produces "American Idol" with FremantleMedia, said another person familiar with the disqualification. Pacitti also knew a second 19 Entertainment employee, the person said.

Like many young people, I never thought I would find myself facing serious credit card debt. In my early twenties, I told myself that I would never fall into any debt trap. I had heard so many horror stories, and I just knew I would not live out one of those.
Boy, was I [...]
