Oh my stars, people, this has been a long week. I had to work five straight days. FIVE DAYS. This has only happened once in six weeks for me.
But we made it. Almost. Let’s see if we can get through Friday.
Here in Florida, we’re bracing for Tropical Storm Emily this weekend. All the weather forecasters are opening their traps and hyping this storm like it’s the second coming. I’m sure Walmart is out of flashlights and batteries. We’ll probably get a refreshing shower and light breeze because we’re all prepared for worse. Those darn weather people need to learn that if they dont’ have something nice to say about the weather, don’t say anything.
Wait. Maybe this doesn’t apply to weather people; but it should for celebrities, right?
I’m gonna start out with mean girl wannabe Kelly Osbourne, who has been running her mouth all over Hollywood this week.
First, she proved that she is rubber and Christina Aguliera is glue when she called her a “fat bitch” on E! Fashion Police. Her rationale for the statement was that Christina called her fat, first.
Sure, that’s a great excuse…FOR A KINDERGARTNER.
Later, Osbourne slammed Princess Catherine for recycling some outfits.
“In England they’re like, ‘Look how thrifty she’s being, showing the British public that the Royals are in a recession as well,’” Osbourne said. “Only in this country they call it a faux pas.”
Well. Maybe that’s the problem with America? That we laugh and criticize people who wear the same clothes over and over again? And also, I really, really doubt that she cares about being thrifty. Kelly — she’s a princess. She can do what she wants. If that’s wearing her favorite pair of skinny jeans a couple times per week, more power to her.
Kelly, You’re the princess of what, exactly? The empire of America’s Got Talent?
EXACTLY.
In other “WHY DID YOU SAY THAT?” news, Latin bombshell and star of Modern Family Sofia Vergara said in an interview that she just loved being a teen mom because she had more energy and because her body was “hideous” before and now is rocking.
Great. We needed more encouragement for young girls to become Teen Moms. Now they not only have the promise of MTV stardom, but also of body that could give any young co-ed a run for their money in a wet t-shirt contest. Thanks, Sofia Vergara, for planting that little seed in the minds of teen girls everywhere, so they can get a little seed planted…
Moving on to more seed planting news, Nick Lachey recently told E! News he was trying everything he could to get Vanessa Minnillo pregnant.
At first I thought this was a super tacky thing to say as I cringe almost every time a man says “I’m gonna knock up my lady!” or anything similar with more or less words. In fact, I said so on Twitter.
It was only then that the gravity of my statement truly sunk in. Yes, Nick Lachey was tacky before he talked about knocking boots with his wife. He was even tacky before he talked about knocking boots with his first wife, which I’m going to just go ahead and presume that happened, too.
It’s a good thing I like tacky.
Have a super tacky weekend, people! And remember, be better than celebrities: if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

I think my new goal in life will be to “be better than celebrities”. But glad to know that Nick is doing all he can to make a baby with V. I’m sure Jessica Simpson would love to hear all about that.
Make that your goal and you’re going to be successful as hell. Celebrities are so ridiculous sometimes. I wonder if he says stuff to get under Jessica’s skin a little.

It’s so HARD working a five day week! I haven’t done it in a long time till this week, and I want to whine. Wah!

It totally blows! Even worse is that my Friday includes almost back to back meetings.
Someone needs to put a muzzle on Kelly Osbourne. I guess celebrities lose all touch with reality when they get famous. I think Kate is a huge role model – normal people wear clothes until they wear out! I don’t understand what the big deal is about her wearing something more than once!
Geesh – what is this world coming to??
jessica@domesticated-bliss recently posted..It’s OK.
Exactly! I have a pair of black heels I wear at least 3 times a week if not more. one of the straps is hanging by 3 threads. That’s all. But guess who is going to wear them until they break (and has two thumbs)…THIS GIRL! I think Kate is great (hehe) and you’re right..a great role model.

The Kelly/Christina comment was my fave, yet also lease fave, of the week. I know Christina has put on weight, but why the fat comments? Even my dad says it and he doesn’t give two shits about celebrities. From what I can tell she’s not in the overweight category. More in the enjoying life (even if it’s on the not so legal side) category. Is she really “fat?”

NO, she’s not fat at all. She looks like what many normal American woman look like who are also pushing 30. Cause as awesome as 30 is, your metabolism changes. Plus, she’s had a baby so cut her some slack. She looks healthy and happy and that’s better than anorexic and addicted to pills. it ain’t right.
I don’t really mind if Kelly rags on Xtina because I’m just not a fan of hers. And I could care less that she’s gained weight because like you said she is getting older AND she had a baby. What I do lothe is the fact that she is still dressing like she did back in her Genie in a Bottle days. She needs to stop stuffing herself into tiny outfits and embrace her body in it’s current state.
But for goodness sakes Kelly, lay off the princess.

You have a point. For instance, I bought a dress that is low cut. At 21 I would have wore it as is. At 31, I wore it with a cami. Bc I’m not a) a sausage or b) 21 anymore.

Oh how I love hearing about celebrities’ hot messes! Seriously though, Sofia “loved being a teen mom” ?? *Sigh* It’s moments like this when I’m so thankful I have a son.

Oh girl, me too. And besides that, can you imagine doing this mama thing at 16? Ain’t no way.
I knew I should have had my kid a few years earlier! Then I’d be MTV-famous, beating my baby’s daddy in front of the WORLD, AND I’d have no problem getting my “figure” back.
These people are ridiculous.

LOL! I think you have to be tacky to be a celebrity. Sometimes the two just go hand in hand unfortunately.
Good luck with the weather. Stay out of the drizzle!

That’s what makes us love them so much! What’s fun about a non tacky celebrity (answer: nothing)
Twitter: MamasMonologues
I think in order to be a celebrity you have to be tacky! Though I do love hearing about their hot messes. It makes me feel more normal!

I totally agree. For as much fortune as they have (that I wish I had too), id rather be little old me and wear the same jeans 3 times a week without ridicule
Twitter: corp2domestic
Wow…I really can’t believe Kelly called Christina fat…especially since she used to be a bigger gal. Now that is just plain tacky!
Natalie recently posted..Life’s Lessons: Operation Keep Baby Out of Trouble
I’m thinking the theme this week should have been “celebrities say the tackiest things”!!!
Is it tacky that I am totally watching Nick and Vanessa’s wedding right now? And that I DVR-ed it? I am such a reality whore.
And also we need to stop calling others fat. No wonder our young girls and women have such a shitty body image!
Jayme (The Random Blogette) recently posted..What Has Surprised Me Most About Social Media
Is it tacky that I am too and crying over it?? Seriously. Also a reality tv whore.
I agree! She so not fat. And even if she was a little curvacious, she’s beautiful the way she is!!

I’m pretty surprised by what Sophie V said but at the same time, I don’t think too many teens are reading Redbook. HAHA!
Ok, so the whole Osbourne thing bugged the crap out of me! Um, you talk about how DEVASTATED you were by people calling you fat and focusing on your fat? You specifically say Christina called you fat and hurt your feelings.
The high road woudl have been SOOO easy here! “Because I’ve had this experience, all I will say is that is not the most flattering outfit.”
Not, “nananana boo booo, you’re a fatty hoo hoooo.”

I know, right? The whole thing was childish. The fat comment was one thing, but the bitch to it to another level. I think she was way out of line.
