Bobby Brown Gossip
Bobby Brown is writing a book. Or he’s babbling into a tape recorder while someone else writes his book for him. Needless to say, a dude who’s hard up for cash and crack will say anything. In his tome, Bobby alleges that it was Whitney who led him astray and not vice versa. "I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Full Story
Whitney Houston showed up with daughter Bobbi Kristina last night in London for Fashion Rocks. By all accounts she looked trim and enthusiastic and not stoned. This is very good news. After over a decade of debauchery with Bobby Brown and then stumbling post split into her own drug-addled drama, Whitney finally, hopefully, seems in control of her life. Full Story
My husband always brags about seeing Radiohead in the mid-90s at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver – small venue, legendary acoustics, a music lover’s dream. Now I have something to match him. Today, Jerry Seinfeld at the media presentation for Bee Movie – his animated collaboration with Dreamworks about the plight of bees and the mistreatment of bees in our society that he conceived and wrote along with many former members of the Seinfeld show.

Mel B is the best of smut. And the ways she mucks around in it, she always means business. Check it out – she dated Eddie Murphy. She got pregnant, they broke up, he didn’t want anything to do with her, she says he’s the daddy, he openly accuses her of promiscuity, and she doesn’t hide. Full Story
Hoo-rah.Whitney Houston’s divorce from Bobby Brown will be final on April 24th with a court granting sole custody of 14 year old Bobbi Christina to her mother. Whitney was emotional during the hearing, shedding a few tears upon hearing the judge’s ruling, and candidly expressing in public her thoughts on Bobby as a father: "If he says he's going to come, sometimes he does.

Brown leather coat we've seen before but still... Posh dressed to kill while looking for schools for the kids and also the American Beckham castle, reportedly turning down several because they're 'too small'.
Plans for renovations include soccer themed motif in all boys' room, the idea being to almost create pitch inside the mansion. Full Story
I know it’s supposed to be good news. That after Goddess knows how many years, Whitney Houston has finally emerged from her cracked induced psychosis and decided to leave that piece of gap-toothed shit she’s been married to for much, much too long.
Good news, absolutely. But I’m more haunted than I am happy, more pessimistic than I am relieved. Full Story
Dear gossips,
In today’s issue: an improved Katie appears and shops, what I know about Carmen & Dave, definitive proof that Lilo’s ladies are luscious AND legit, on Naomi Watts, on Pam & Kid, on Kiki, the best hatemail ever, and… did I mention the sugar sweet Rachel & Ryan stuff? Yes, yes tigerbeaters, it is your day indeed.
But first, I need to thank some lovely people in Toronto and engage in a little shameless self promotion.
Wednesday is media day again! First I’ll be spending an hour with Devo Brown on The Flow 93.5 starting at 4pm. Listen live on the web if you’re not in Toronto. Then I’ll be dishing sports on Off the Record with Michael Landsberg on TSN at 6pm. Check it out if you have time!
And now the column…
Don't forget to check me out on Flow 93.5 for my regular Wednesday spot tomorrow afternoon with Devo Brown at 4:30pm.
Fresh smut on Thursday night. Til then, I am yours in gossip,

That’s the story according to the National Enquirer. And while my first instinct is usually an eye roll whenever I read anything associated with that rag, it's hard to ignore this one especially since they've been right on top of Whitney's descent into crackhead hell from the minute they paid off her unscrupulous sister in law.

Don't forget to check me out on Flow 93.5 in Toronto tomorrow at 4:30pm with Devo Brown. Fresh smut on Thursday night, including insider smut behind the Matt LeBlanc divorce. Til then, I am yours in gossip,

Dear gossips,
I just spent the night with Denzel Washington AND Clive Owen. Does it get any better? Inside Man is all about eye candy and even Jodie Foster manages to look pretty horny. I was highly entertained.
So anyway, despite what you may have heard, IT has not arrived…yet. And while Little Sci is definitely on his way, he did not pop out today in Toledo, Ohio. In fact, as of press time, he is still safely ensconced in his mother’s womb, practicing his maniacal cackle, already the prodigal son to his preposterously freakish father. More on that later.
But first – a HUGE smutty welcome to all new visitors from Toronto’s Flow 93.5 who heard me on the radio today at 4:30pm. It’s my regular time slot – every Wednesday - dishing the dirt with the very suave, very charismatic Devo Brown. If you’re not in the area, you can always hit the Flow site and listen live.
In today’s issue: celebrating Mariah, TomKat at Yahoo, an Asian comparison, a Duff comparison, Demi’s bag, and a low key Angelina in Paris.
Many of you love him. Indeed, there was a time when I did too. And I think my best friend Erin probably covets him as well but, being a great mother and wife, her infatuations are really quite harmless compared to the sadistic fantastical exploits running through my mind. Don't let her tell you different. Full Story
Apparently Whitney Houston cannot get enough of her husband's lovin'. And believe me, I've tried from every angle imaginable and I just can't see it. You know how some people, no matter how ghetto they might be on the inside, still manage to look classy on the outside? Whitney, when she's not smoking crack, is one of those people. Full Story
I found myself watching Dateline tonight, curious about Bobby Brown's exclusive interview with Matt Lauer to promote the upcoming Being Bobby Brown. And while I can't say the show looks any good, I can tell you that I appreciated his candour about his marriage, their drug use, their recovery, and their future. In contrast to the artificial, rehearsed robot that is Tom Cruise, here's a dude who seemed 'real'...f*cked up and still thuggin'...but real all the same. Did you ever think that Tom Cruise would one day be less respectable than Bobby Brown??? The Goddess works in mysterous ways y'all. More in two days. 'Til then, I am yours in gossip, Lainey.
Gee. That's a surprise. Late day announcement from her flack that Whitney Houston is back in rehab, her 2nd stay in just over a year. You'll recall the first time she only managed to stick it out for a few days before checking out in favour of a more 'private' approach. Private my flat Chinese ass. Full Story
In many ways, Helen Gurley Brown was Carrie Bradshaw before Carrie Bradshaw. Considering that she wrote Sex & the Single Girl in 1962 and led Cosmopolitan for more than 30 years, championing a woman's right to more than muffins and meatloaf, I'd say her work was a lot more groundbreaking than anything Candace Bushnell, Carrie Bradshaw, and Manolo Blahnik have to offer.

Time flies ... and from the looks of it, 40 is not going to be kind to Sarah Jessica Parker. This old bag o' bones is looking more and more hag-like every time I see her. Is it just me or is she starting to resemble that walking corpse Helen Gurley-Brown??? Full Story
Apparently there is an unspoken critics code that says we're supposed to cut these independent film actresses more slack than their cookie cutter studio starlet contempories. And for the most part, we do. When Chloe Sevigny enthusiastically fellated Vincent Gallo in his critical bomb The Brown Bunny, nobody batted an eyelash. Full Story
Have you heard? They are the latest celebrity couple to get their very own reality tv show following in steps of the Osbournes, Nick & Jessica, and Carmen & Dave. It's supposedly called 'Me and Bobby Brown' and chronicles their travels, experiences, court appearances, and other riveting moments in their lives. Full Story
