Video Hoes in all Area Codes

"Superhead" bashes "love of her life". Come on you know you loved that phrase! Karrine Steffans, a video-ho cum writer, who was once quoted saying “Bill Maher is the love of my life” is now telling VIBE that he did not like her “success” and treated her terribly. Really, Bill Maher isn’t nice to his many hooker looking girlfriends. A man who has been single for forever and lives in LA doesn’t respect women??? Hold the phones, I’m shocked!



Seriously, who is running around the US just handing out book deals to all these losers. I think it is amazing that a woman who became famous by gyrating in rap videos and schtooping famous men gets all offended when said famous men do not treat her with respect. Although I can imagine how annoying it would be to date Mr. Maher. I am looking forward to the biographies of more video hoes and rock sluts. Oooh maybe that can be a challenge in the next installment of Rock of Love with Bret Michaels.

DAILY ROUNDS

First, apologies for the delays in Spielster posts. This weekend was CRAZY!!!! in a very good way and I have been working my fingers to the bone on my Halloween costume, so I have been unable to get the job done on the Spielster. Today or tomorrow, I will present a run down of “The Comedians of Comedy” show this past weekend at Irving Plaza, where I laughed for like 3 hours straight and found my new comic crush. Also, I had the chance to see Morissey on Sunday and that guy is fucking amazing. This being the third time I have seen him solo, its awesome that he continues to get better and better each time! And he played my favorite Smiths song “Stop Me if you think that you’ve heard this one before”, so it couldn’t have gotten any better. So more on that coming later, but let’s get to the news:



A Hollywood legend is no longer. Robert Goulet, a star who was always able to laugh at himself and enjoy life, passed away yesterday at 73 years old. The Camelot star and well known Hollywood icon has succumbed to his battle with pulmonary fibrosis and died at Cedar Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles. The crooner was waiting for a lung transplant due to his illness and has been on a breathing tube and confined to a bed for the past month. He is survived by Vera Goulet, his wife of 25 years and his three children from previous marriages.
I had the opportunity to see him perform a few years ago and his voice was amazing! I am getting very sad now that all members of the “Old Hollywood” group is starting to pass away. Unfortunately, since Goulet is the second celebrity who has passed this week,
following the death of Porter Wagoner and these things always happen in threes, I wonder who is next.

Daily News reports that Jive Records wants nothing to do with Britney Spears and her new ablum. Also, Ashley Olsen (1/2 of Michelle Tanner) was making out with Lance Armstrong this past Monday in the Rose Bar here in NYC. Wow, this dude really knows how to downgrade.

What a fun way to celebrate a birthday! Dermot Mulroney and Catherine Keener are officially dunzo. The couple, who wed in 1990, has legally dissolved their marriage and they both will single on December 17th. Today also marks the 44th birthday for Mulroney. This stinks because it seemed they really did well together, but stuff never seems to work out in Hollywood, even for indie actors.

Well this would make me commit suicide too! Owen Wilson and Jessica Simpson??? Uhhh, they are both blonde and are from Texas...I guess that's enough to create some kind of bond. I don't care as long as this chick stays away from the in-the-works Grease remake.

Heather Mills wanted to kill herself, but was apparently to in love with being famous to get the job done. Wah wah wah, I was married to a Beatle and then spat all this shit on him and women hated me. They were going to hate you regardless but ruining McCartney’s good name is just plain old dumb!

Thank you to Entertainment Weekly for pushing Reaper, one of my new favorite shows. This show is about a 21 year old, played by Bret Harrison,who finds out that his parents sold his soul to the devil when he was a child. He is now forced to work for the Devil, played wickedly by Ray Wise, from Twin Peaks fame. It is kind of like a funny version of Buffy, for dudes and ladies. The storylines are great, main characters are interesting and seem familiar. And how can a show which each week has people trying to catch escaped souls from hell, while figuring out their love light, not be entertaining? I highly recommend checking this out!!!!!

"Bordertown", Jennifer Lopez’s latest attempt at proving herself in the acting world, is going straight to video. Good thing she has twelve other “jobs” that help her pull in $25 million a year.

DAILY ROUNDS

It’s still dreary and lame here in New York, but this weekend should more then make up for it. Tomorrow night I am hitting up the Comedians of Comedy tour at Irving Plaza, with Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn and Maria Bamford. Hopefully David Cross will show up, but who knows. And then Sunday night, I am making the trek to Hammerstein Ballroom and see Morrissey’s final New York show. I am excited to start the weekend, but we need to get through the news first, so lets get to it:

“Never follow a hippie to a second location”. These priceless words are courtesy of Alec Baldwin from last night’s amazing episode of 30 Rock. You can view the entire episodes, and I highly recommend doing so, right here.

Sex Pistols reunited last night for a private show courtesy of Indie 103.1. Reviews are mixed and I am sure any mishaps can be blame on Johnny Rotten (Lydon) and not Steve Jones, who I have a very bizarre crush on right now!. The group is set to bring the act overseas to their native England in November, right before the Led Zeppelin's reunion show in London.

And the world weeped… Apparently it took THREE SEASONS of The Hills for people to understand that the “reality” program is all staged. I just assumed you were thrown amazing jobs, such as event planner and stylist assistant, right after high school. And your constant fights with your best friend, they aren’t featured on the cover of US Weekly. Wow this really is shocking news.

Defamer.com discusses the top 50 most powerful people in Hollywood chosen by Premiere magazine. Judd Apatow is now THIS close to the top 10, with the releases of Knocked Up and Superbad., as well as four pictures coming in the next year.

Entertainment Weekly interviews the stars of the film American Gangster, Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe. Washington dishes on his career in the article and Crowe manages to let the world know that Leonardo DiCaprio was a virgin still at age 17, even though he was a Hollywood star. For some reason, that redeems DiCaprio a lot in my book, but he stills needs to get over the models.

Wonkette has found someone who would actually publicly acknowledge they had sex with Larry Craig and it’s a big bear of a man. Thanks for ruining my breakfast people!!!!! I am not sure if this image will ever get out of my head.

FCC will be digging into the upcoming purchase of the Wall Street Jounral by Ruppert Murdoch. Michael Copps, commissioner for the FCC, has deemed the acquirement of WSJ could possibly be unlawful because of the other media holds News Corp. has. While many people within the FCC find this action a bit ridiculous, this does not mean they will not look into the issue.

Thank you Iggy! Ellen Degeneres’ ratings skyrocketed 10 % last week after the breakdown she had over the removal of the Brussels Griffon she passed off onto her hairstylist’s daughter when it didn’t get along with Ellen’s cats.

I know I had discussed this about a month ago, but its never an issue to revisit a ridiculous quote. Dave Navarro is saying he "left” rock music for porn because it has more integrity. Two things are wrong with this statement, the first being, its not “leaving” when no one asked you to stay. And secondly, can a guy who hosted Rock Star: INXS really have the balls to discuss integrity in the rock genre? I mean come on man.

I can not wait to share some of my footage from this weekend’s shows. ENJOY you Friday!!!!!

She's so cute...

Here is some video of one of my longest running girl crushes, Melissa auf de Maur chatting with the NME staffer while at the M for Montreal music showcase.



Ms. Auf de Maur is currently working on another solo album and the 15 year old girl in me is super excited!!!!! And seriously, how come no rock star has snatched this woman up by now????

Tyra is a real piece of work this year on America's Next top Model

After the last "cycle" of ANTM, I was pretty sure I would never be watching this show again. I am not sure if it was the vast mount of stupidity that followed the last group or just the fact they not attractive and half of them looked like trannys, but I was sure I was not digging it anymore. But of course I am a sucker for crappy reality, so I gave Ms. Banks and her crew another chance andI am very glad I did. This "cycle's" group is much more attractive, actually well spoken and I think the majority of them could actually become working models. To be honest, I am not even sure yet who is going to make it to the final two because there is actually a lot of competition this time around.



While I will say I am bored to tears with the "green" intervention they had this year, it was nice to see that with this week's PSA contest for IAMAFRICAN.org, these girls are actually well spolen on camera and seem to understand whats going on. I am really liking most of the models, but the thing that always annoys me and probably always will is the gosh darn Tyra Banks. Well this year she is really picking on these chicks and it finally got to the hard ass of the house. While Ebony was super excited to see Tyson, the male hunk best known for poor acting roles and an amazing body, she didn't seem like she cared about anything else to do with modeling. So it wasn't a surprice when Ebony elected to leave the ANTM house on this week's episode, even though the judges thought she should continue. The one time “bitch of the house” was chosen by the judges to stay so they could send Ambreal home, but Ebony at the last minute said she wanted out! While Ebony might not have taken the best pictures, she was a lot more entertaining and had more potential then Ambreal, who is about as exciting as a wet rag.

What I did love is how even after Ebony started crying and explaining why “modeling wasn’t for her”, Tyra chose to continue to put her down and mock her. Ms. Banks then went on to say the only she doesn't respect is quitters (nice dig!) and then dismissed her. Ms. Banks needs a rude awakening!!!!! It doesn’t matter cause Ambreal will probably be going home next week anyways. I mean you can not recover from being the worst and getting kicked off to just barely making it to save face. I am glad that Tyra had the guts at least to not reshoot that scene, but then again, maybe it was just to mock Ebony one more time. Geeez, I wonder why she hated being there. Right now my favorites are Jennah, Heather (although the Asbergers situation is DEFINITELY ENOUGH at this point) and Bianca.

DAILY ROUNDS

It’s rainy and mucky here and I would prefer to be wrapped up in my bed watching Arrested Developmenton constant repeat, but alas that’ not happening. So in the meantime, let’s check out what we have for you today:

First off, apparently the wild fires in California subside just a bit. And they are looking into the incident being caused by arsonists, not Al Qaeda, as Fox News has been reporting, sort of.

Alyssa Milano dishes about her new gig. Milano, famous for being one of the only kid actors who NEVER went through an awkward stage, is joining the cast of My Name is Earl for an arc that has her dating Earl (Jason Lee) and she will be staying until December. TV can always do with some more Milano.

Journalists are scared about losing their jobs. Yeah yeah….the internet is going to eradicate the written word, on paper. As much as I love me some internets, until you can comfortably read a blog on a crowded 6 train with 150 of your closest strangers all up in your face, the newspaper will be sticking around.

JANE part deux??? Word on the street is Ms. Jane Pratt met with her original arsenal of staffers from JANE magazine for a bit of a pow wow. Hopefully this means a new magazine is in the works.

Gossip is swirling that Ellen Degeneres cracked up last week because of problems between her and Portia, not because of that breakdown she had about that dang dog Iggy being taken away.

Microsoft wins the battle for a stake in Facebook. For about two months, Google, Yahoo and Microsoft were battling to obtain part of the social networking site. Microsoft said that they would be paying about $240 million for less then a 2 percent stake in Facebook. The site is now valued at over $ 15 billion.

Heidi Klum explains the real attraction to Seal On today’s episode of Oprah, Klum explains when she first met Seal he was sweaty after the gym and was carrying an impressive package. It was love at first sight. Hell, at least she is honest.

Tastebook launched with help from CondeNast’s internet sites. The recipe site, which allows users to create cookbooks from uploaded recipes, was created by the co-founder of Ofoto so you can create a personal feel for a cookbook.

I guess this counts as celeb news. The Soup’ American Idol contestant, Constantine Maroulis and my favorite pop star, Deborah Gibson are apparently dating according to US Weekly I really don’t have anything bad to say about these two, so hopefully this works out.

Later today we will be dishing about the surprise hits of the TV season so far and this year’s America’s Next Top Model, cause somehow I got sucked back into caring about this show with this season’s cast. Maybe it’s because they are much smarter then last “cycle’s” or the fact that they all don’t look like a bunch of transvestites could also have something to do with it.

Daily Rounds

Last night, I had the opportunity to check out Dave Gahan at the Apple store in Soho and let’s just say it was great.



I am a HUGE Depeche Mode, so I am a bit easier to please when it comes to Mr. Gahan, but he looked amazing and sounds great!!!! While his new ablum Hourglass came out yesterday, the tracks were more beat heavy then his previous solo album. The single “Kingdom” is on my current rotation and you can check it out on songs I can not get out of my head post from last week. I really love how I am able to enjoy live music again after taking a break for a bit!!!! And now let’s get to the news:

David Chase chastises "Sopranos" fans who didn’t understand the season’s finale. I have to say I agree with him on some points. It’s a bit bizarre to follow a character for so many years, support him and then want him shot in the head, even as evil as he was. But I think Chase’s most interesting comments were about the kids, Meadow and AJ.

I thought I hated my cable company enough to destruction, but this is amazing!!!!! How bad of a company do you have to be to get a 75 year old lady this mad at you!

Early reviews are favorable for "Baby Mama", starring Amy Poehler as the surrogate mother for Tina Fey’s baby. Siguorney Weaver and Dax Sheparrd round out the cast for the comedy hitting the big screen this Spring.

Robert Goulet’s life depends on a lung transplant. The crooner, best known for his role in Camelot, was admitted to Cedar Sinai in LA with pulmonary fibrosis, a disease with rabid growth that attacks the lungs. Goulet has been put on the lung transplant list and we are hoping that he makes a speedy recovery.

Giuliani is not making many friends in New York today. This dude is getting scarier and scarier everyday, and I don’t just mean look wise, but I don’t even know what he believes anymore since he changes his mind constantly. And apparently he employs priests were priests who have molested little boys..repeatedly.

Speaking of greedy politicians who take advantage of disasters, G4 is replaying Season 2 of Heroes beginning next month. So if you need catching up on this season or would like to watch the after show interview wrap ups, enjoy. And from the ratings this season, most of you need some catching up or just not interested anymore.

Yahoo.com wants you to pick your favorite Seinfeld episodes. They will put the top 10 episodes, chosen by the viewers, up on their website for viewing in November. There is also a sweepstakes where fans can win the full series on DVD and other prize packs.

In other sweeps news, Taco Bell is promising America free tacos for every base that is stolen during the 2007 World Series. They will also be donating $20,000 to the Boys and Girls Club of America for every base that is stolen. Make sure you check out the games and the dates the tacos will be given away!

And finally, I would like to hear which episodes of Seinfeld are your favorite? I am going to put together my own top five list for this weekend and hopefully we have a bunch of the same ones!!!!!
