Publicly calling someone a wife-beater is a weighty accusation, and you better be prepared for the foreseeable fallout. In Hope Solo’s new cheesily-titled memoir, ‘Going Solo: A Memoir of Hope,’ she accused her Dancing With the Stars partner, Maksim Chermovskiy of getting physical during rehearsals, saying, “He manhandled me in rehearsals from the start, pushing me, whacking my stomach, bending my arms roughly. I thought that was just how it went – how dancers worked with each other,” she said. “But it kept getting worse. One day, Maks was trying to put me in a certain position and hit my stomach so hard with his open palm that I had a red hand-print there for the rest of the day.” In response, Maksim told TMZ that’s he’s shocked by the accusations, given that he’s had a post-show friendship with Solo. He later tweeted, “Always hated hypocrites and liars…but when someone is both AND an opportunist, I just feel bad for them. Can’t win at someone’s expense.” I’m not sure who to believe here, but I’ve previously made note of Maksim’s relatively aggressive teaching style (see the video below). But given that Hope Solo recently tweeted Maksim asking him if he’d like tickets to the Olympics, I find her hypocrisy disturbing. Pick a side and stick with it. If you’re still willing to stay in contact and call someone a friend, then be careful about sinking his career with “he-hit-me” accusations.
When I first read the story about Kristen Bell’s constant interruptions during Ryan Lochte’s Jay Leno interview, I was prepared to lay into her. But after watching the clip below, it’s clear that it’s really more about her wanting to impress the incredibly hot gold medalist, than it is about her being an attention-whore. That being said, she probably should have kept her mouth shut. And judging by Lochte’s reaction, he’s not happy about it, which is good news for The Dishmaster who is holding out hope that Lochte and I will one day live happily ever after. Watch below.
All I have to say after watching the clip below is, “Ouch.” Oh and one more thing — Of all the people I’d expect to publicly call-out Matt Lauer for his alleged treatment of Ann Curry, it wasn’t Al Roker. So good job, Al. Someone had to do it.
Al Roker Seemingly Calls Out Matt Lauer On The ‘Today Show’
“I am choosing not to comment on whether or not the furs I purchase are faux fur-pile or real because I would think it hypercritical not to acknowledge the python, ostrich, cow hide, leather, lamb, alligator, ‘kermit’ and not to mention meat, that I have already worn. You see a carcass, I see a museum pièce de résistance.” Lady Gaga’s hilarious speech about her choice to wear fur — and every other animal on the planet.
I know Taylor Swift is infallible, and I realize what I’m about to say will be met with the same eye-rolls as my Tom Arnold/Roseanne post, but her new song is cringe-worthy. The lyrics are so literal, I found myself uncomfortable while listening, and the spaces involving her prosaic dialogue reminded me that early fame might have stunted her adult development. It’s time to move her music to a more mature place. But I need not apologize to Taylor Swift for this post — the song is already on it’s way to breaking records.
I’ve heard of dropping the “M” bomb early, but this one takes the cake. After dating for just a month and a half, Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham delivered one of the most ill-timed marriage talks in history. Did I mention she’s been dating this guy for just over a month? Watch the painfully awkward conversation below.
George Michael is a self-important douchebag. In response to the critics who rightfully suggested that he should have performed one of his well-known hits at the Olympics instead of using the event to launch his new single, Michael simply said, “I don’t regret it.” Perhaps if he took his head out of his ass for five minutes he might clear his mind enough to write good music. The guy just cannot duplicate the quality of ‘Faith.’ Listen to the “single” in question below. It’s called “White Light.”
I’m sure what I’m about to say will be met with national eye-rolls, but I have an uncanny ability to sense love. And for whatever reason, when Tom Arnold hugged Roseanne at the end of his roast, it’s as if all of their hate and love united for a brief moment in history, and a nuclear bomb of emotional confusion went off. In short? Those two lunatics must have really loved each other once. Only in Hollywood would the emotional insanity be put aside for the good of the joke.
I don’t have much to say about this cover, other than it has to be one of the worst I’ve seen in recent history. The folks over at New York Magazine need to have a long conversation with the responsible party. And also — the original article is flooded with an insane amount of copy that should only be reserved Paul McCartney. I’m a viewer-on-the-go. If I’m going to make a twenty minute reading stop, it’s not going to be for Kim Kardashian.
