Why I Finally Have Some Respect for Katie Holmes

When Katie Holmes started dating Tom Cruise, I was really grossed out. Then when they became engaged and she had that Scientology girl following her around all the time, I was worried for Katie. Then she was pregnant and Cruise was performing his ultrasounds on her and I had to give up. It was awful—I couldn’t handle all the stress and anxiety that came with following their celebrity relationship. Not to mention, I really do not enjoy Scientology.

I love cults, and I’m fascinated by them. Jim Jones and The People’s Temple, David Koresh and The Branch Davidians, Charles Manson and The Family; I love them all, but Scientology just never did it for me. And before anyone says “Scientology is different,” let me just say, “Shut up.” No it’s not—it’s a crazy cult and they do bad things, and the only reason it’s even as popular today as it is is because L. Ron Hubbard was smart enough to get celebrity names and …

Being Brad Pitt’s Mom Means You Can’t Have an Opinion

Before joining forces with Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt was known primarily for being hot, an endeavor he was remarkably good at.  He has moved from eye candy to political awareness, though, and he has shown to be even better at this undertaking.  Whether giving time and money to victims of Hurricane Katrina or raising awareness about issues such as same-sex marriage, Pitt is a guy that’s used his popularity to get more than laid.

But does that mean that his entire family agrees with him?  Apparently not …

From Yahoo News:

In a letter to her hometown paper, the Springfield (Mo.) News-Leader, Jane Pitt writes that Christians, like herself, should not refuse to vote for Mitt Romney just because he is a Mormon. The published response to an earlier opinion in the paper describes President Barack Obama’s opponent for president as “a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion, and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality.”

What I don’t understand, though, is why this is news.

My mother was raised in an extremely right-wing family.  As she grew into adulthood (at the height of the sixties, I might add), she developed her own ideas and opinions, becoming quite liberal.  There were never any turkey-throwing incidents at Thanksgiving over politics or anything, and I had no clue how different her views were from the rest of her side of the family until I was nearly an …

Charlie Sheen’s Disposable Goddesses

Posted on by

It’s wasn’t Charlie Sheen’s possibly deranged, potentially BS and certainly attention-seeking behavior that has disturbed me over the last week or so. It’s been the way in which this behavior has been greeted largely as a joke — with phrases like “winning” and “tiger’s blood” being used as punchlines and Sheen in general being greeted with smirks and a record number of Twitter followers. One man even immortalized Sheen’s insane media blitz with a particularly ugly tattoo which he said was the talk of the bar after he got it done. Perhaps more confusing and disappointing was Jezebel blogger Jessica Coen posting an article about how she “Played Phone Tag with Charlie Sheen,” pretending she was interested in a job as a “Goddess” at Sheen’s newly-christened Sober Valley Lodge, even sending a photo …

All right, confession time: I hate the women on Fox News.  They are virtually all these blonde Barbie-like things with minimal journalistic skill who have become talking heads based purely on their looks.  But once in awhile, one of them takes the time to humanize herself.

Alisyn Camerota was apparently up.

By going public with her infertility struggles, Camerota has automatically shared camaraderie with many women … and is giving hope through her eventual success at having children.

From AOL Health:

[Camerota] began fertility treatments, which would last for another two-and-a-half years. Nothing worked. As desperate as …
