More Janet Charleton's Hollywood Whodunit...I love this bitch
This guy was a looker, but he never made it as an actor. Luckily, he had a trust fund and was always a big spender so he ran with the hot crowd in Hollywood. His trust fund fizzled out and he was forced into prostitution! He met an incredibly wealthy Mexican playboy whose father has billions, and they became close friends. The playboy worships the failed actor and he pays for everything when they go out. As our guy became more financially dependent on the playboy, the kid with the money started demanding "affection." Now our unsuccessful actor is "gay for pay" and he doesn't know any other way to support himself in style.
LA Times sports writer to become a woman.
Today I leave for a few weeks' vacation, and when I return, I will come back in yet another incarnation. As Christine.
I am a transsexual sportswriter. It has taken more than 40 years, a million tears and hundreds of hours of soul-wrenching therapy for me to work up the courage to type those words. I realize many readers and colleagues and friends will be shocked to read them.
That's OK. I understand that I am not the only one in transition as I move from Mike to Christine. Everyone who knows me and my work will be transitioning as well. That will take time. And that's all right. To borrow a piece of well-worn sports parlance, we will take it one day at a time.

Dog owners 'fleeced' in poodle scam
Thousands of Japanese were swindled in a scam in which they bought imported Australian and British sheep thinking they were poodles. Japanese dog-lovers wanting a chic canine were sold the bogus dogs at $1,600 a pup by a company called Poodles As Pets. Actual dyed-in-the-wool, so to speak, poodles retail for about $3,200 in Japan, so it seemed like a good deal. The scam was uncovered when Japanese movie star Maiko Kawamaki went on a talk show and wondered why her new pet wouldn't bark or eat dog food. Source Source

Janet Charleton's Hollywood Whodunit
This pretty actress looks like the girl next door and has a juicy role on a hit cable series. She's well liked in the business and her career is taking off. But she can't hold onto a boyfriend because of her nasty secret. It seems they object to her addiction to Vicodin. They don't like the sleazy drug dealers that come to her house, and they worry about what it's doing to her health. She's been hooked for years and isn't interested in rehab. Her last boyfriend (who REALLY loved her) gave her an ultimatum: "It's me or the drug." She chose the drug, as usual.
Sanjaya claims he's not gay
"I've always gotten along with girls better because I was raised by women. I got teased in school because people figured I must be gay because I understand women. I think that's why guys didn't like me - because I got along with girls so well. When I went up to girls they would give me a hug and a kiss on the cheek like I was their gay friend. But I was the straight guy that understood them. [Before Idol] I had a girlfriend but she became clingy, and I didn't want to get into a really serious relationship because I was 16. I just wanted to date and have fun."

Lube Sued
April 21, 2007 -- Consumer giant Unilever slapped the maker of two personal lubricants - "Boy Butter" and "You Won't Believe It's Not Boy Butter" - with a lawsuit yesterday for infringing on the trademark of their popular margarine.The lubes, aimed at gay men, feature similar packaging, logos and lettering as "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" and "Country Crock" products.
The lube makers at B.B.L. Inc. have even parodied the famous commercials featuring a man's and a woman's hands at the breakfast table, according to the suit filed in Manhattan federal court.
In the spoof ad, featured on the company's Web site, two sets of male hands are seen in a kitchen, buttering up with lube as a voiceover extols the virtues of "You Won't Believe It's Not Boy Butter."
Unilever wants B.B.L. to stop producing the lube, recall all their products and turn over their profits to Unilever.

Dear God...Why?
"American Idol" will raise the dead on Wednesday and feature a performance with Celine Dion and ... Elvis Presley?!While "A.I." teased their "Idol Gives Back" charity benefit by revealing that "two of the biggest stars in musical history come together," sources at last week's taping tell TMZ that Celine sang Elvis Presley's hit, "If I Can Dream" -- with an Elvis impersonator! Ugh! But we're told the impersonator was just used as a stand-in, and what you will actually see when the show airs is Celine singing with a virtual Elvis -- in the vein of Natalie Cole and Nat King Cole's "Unforgettable." Unbelievable!At the taping, the remaining "Idol" wannabes also sang with Celine and Elvis, but as backup in the choir. Hallelujah! Elvis died nearly thirty years ago, while Celine has been singing at Caesars Palace in Vegas for the last four.Gay Heroes character disappears.
Considering Heroes is a show about people embracing what's special about themselves, it would have been great for gay teens see themselves reflected on TV by Zach. It's unfortunate and really – we only took one line out of the script. In really, in all of our minds, the character was still gay but we couldn't say it explicitly. I was very upset by it – I was not happy about it at all. There were times I had to avoid talking about it because we didn't want to have a negative reflection on the show. The show's been such a positive experience for so many people, we didn't want to get hung up on the fact that one actor's management felt that it was a career killer for him to play a homosexual which, as a gay man, I found incredibly insulting. We had episodes planned for him to be in, and she pulled him from the show altogether. So that's why he sort of disappeared.Source

Most expensive movie ever made?
"SPIDER-Man 3" will be the most expensive movie ever made when it opens May 4. While industry insiders claim Sony Pictures spent $350 million on production alone, Hollywood reporter Kim Masters reports in Radar magazine that the total bill - including prints and marketing costs - is more than $500 million, making the Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst flick a record-breaker. One of the film's producers, Laura Ziskin, disputed the $350 million number, and said, "I refuse to say the [real] number because it makes me choke. 'Spider-Man 3' was a super-expensive movie - the most expensive film we've ever made. But there's no way you can get to $300 million." A Sony rep claimed it only cost $270 million. The production spent more than $1 million a day shooting on location in union-heavy New York, and it also employed expensive computer-generated special effects. Source
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry
Adam Sandler talks to Newsweek magazine this week about his upcoming role in I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, in which he and Kevin James play firefighters who pretend to be gay in order to receive domestic partner benefits.Said Sandler: "Kevin [James] and I have to pretend we're a gay couple. I know Kevin, and it's kind of a strange thing to have to play. So to ease the tension, before the first day of shooting, we had sex with each other. We just got it out of the way so it wouldn't be an issue. It's an old tip I picked up from working with Nicholson. We took some liberties in the movie. There's a scene where I mistake Kevin James's boxers for a pillowcase and stuff a pillow in them. That was not Kevin's real underwear. We used that as a mattress cover. This movie says there's nothing wrong with being gay. There's just something wrong with being gay for Kevin James."
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is scheduled to open on July 20.
