C-Lister!

If you're a fan of Kathy Griffin and her show, you know she's a self-proclaimed D-Lister. Maybe not for long though. After losing her Emmy nomination last year to Extreme Makeover:Home Edition, Griffin has risen to the C-List with her Emmy win Saturday night at the Creative Arts Primetime Emmys. Rather than give the typical acceptance speech, crazy Kathy delivered the following: “A lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus,” Griffin said, going on to hold up her Emmy and proclaim, “This award is my god now!” I love her haha. Congrats!

HELP! Student Missing!

My sister attends Florida State University and as we were chatting online, she told me about a fellow student who went missing this past Monday.

This is the following information provided by Tallahassee.com:

"Tallahassee police are looking for Ryan Giacomin, 20, who has been missing since 10 a.m. Monday. Giacomin, a junior at Florida State University, was last seen riding a scooter near his home in the 200 block of Bamboo Drive. He is 5-foot-9, weighs 165 pounds and has brown hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information should call Tallahassee Police Department at 891-4200."

If you live in that area, please make sure to contact police immediately in case of a sighting!

Replacement

Since being fired from The Disney Channel, it is rumored that Vanessa Hudgens has been replaced by Adrienne Bailon (left), best known as one of the Cheetah Girls. Neither Bailon's or Hudgens reps have confirmed anything about a replacement. What is certain for now is that Hudgens will not appear in High School Musical 3.

Oops!

High School Musical star, Vanessa Hudgens, admitted to the press that it was in fact her in the nude photograph, despite rumors of the picture being photoshopped. The public has also learned that while there was one nude photo found, several others were "suggestive" photographs. Since being leaked online to various websites, Hudgens said in a statement released Friday, “I want to apologize to my fans, whose support and trust means the world to me. I am embarrassed over this situation and regret having ever taken these photos. I am thankful for the support of my family and friends.” Disney also released a statement: “Vanessa has apologized for what was obviously a lapse in judgment. We hope she’s learned a valuable lesson.”

UH OH!

So I was checking AOL News (daily habit) and I noticed a headline that read "Paris sues over 'That's Hot' card." As I continued reading the article, I learned she made the phrase a trademark and was suing Hallmark Cards for "commercial appropriation of identity, invasion of privacy, misappropriation of publicity, false representation that Hilton endorses the product, and infringement of a federally registered trademark." I immediately got scared that my own blog would be in jeopardy if her people ever found out. SO on that note, if anyone out there EVER reaches Paris and her personnel, know that I only used her phrase because 1) I like it and 2) I believed it would be catchy for this sort of blog - which features the "hottest" news in the entertainment industry. Also, I'd like to add that I will add the Trademark sign to my banner along with Paris' name to avoid any trouble -not that this blog is read by her- but in any case, I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Couple Splits

It's sad when couples, celebrity or not, with very young children split. But according to Us Weekly, Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger, parents of 23-month old Mathilda, "quietly and amicably split a few weeks ago." I hope they remain friendly, for the sake of their child.

I hate to admit, but I'm secretly happy. Now Heath is mine again =P

Just kidding, but I do really love his work, not to mention he's a hottie =)

A Model Life: Finale

Joel Wilkenfeld, Co-President of NEXT, and host Petra Nemcova revealed the girls' future with NEXT. After learning that her pictures were sent to London and approved, Michelle was told she would be leaving for London. Beatrice "Bea," learned she would be heading for Miami where they also liked her photos but it also reminded to respect people onset foremost. Tough girl Anjelika is also told she will not be staying in New York any longer. She will be sent to native California - but without a contract. She is sent home because of her know-it-all attitude. After being dismissed, you see an emotional side to her, previously unknown about her.

Valeria, Lucia and Abigail are informed they will be flying to the Bahamas for a final photo shoot. The shoot turns out to be a little challeging for the girls. For Abigail "Abi," her poses on the rocks are a bit awkward, but then again, who ever said standing on rocks and modeling would be easy? Valeria has trouble opening her eyes enough but there are no real complaints for Lucia "Lucy," except that she needs to learn her angles better, which Joel later discusses with Petra.

Back in New York, the remaining three (right) learn they will ALL get a $100,000 contract with NEXT. Also, Joanna Coles, Editor-in-Chief of Marie Claire, surprises the girls with news of their first editorial fashion spread and commends them for being good role models because they ACTUALLY eat. SWEET DEAL!

By the end of the show, through lots of crying and sadness, they say goodbye to Petra for the meantime, and to eachother before returning home to Australia, Slovakia and the U.K.
