Quote of the Day — ‘X Factor’s’ Stacy Francis

“I respect Nicole and I love her but I think that as a creative executive — Simon, that’s the lane that he’s in, you know?  So that’s when I think I crashed and burned — those last two weeks when I didn’t have his help.  And unfortunately, I wasn’t in his category.  So unfortunately, I had to bite the bullet.” ‘X Factor’s’ Stacy Francis on whether Nicole Scherzinger’s poor song-choices resulted in her elimination from the competition and whether she would have rather had Simon Cowell as her mentor.

Quote of the Day — Brett Ratner Steps Down As Oscar Producer

Quote of the Day — Brett Ratner — A Bigot?

But as a storyteller I should have been much more thoughtful about the power of language and my choice of words.” Brett Ratner (A.K.A. the douchiest douche on the planet), on saying “rehearsal is for fags.”

Quote of the Day — Kate Winslet

“I ran into the bedroom and put on a bra. In disastrous moments like that, you do the strangest things.
