It was another so-so presentation from MTV with this year’s VMAs. It could have gone by without mention. Except for an outrageous outburst by a semi-lucid Kanye West.West ripped the Mic from a somewhat startled Taylor Swift after she won the Best Female Video for her clip “You Belong With Me. Pictures speak a thousand words, and given that he can’t sing without half a bottle of Tequila and the best Autotune engineers this fine country has to offer, you’d think this’d be Kanye’s forte… Apparently not.

Bernie Mac, the actor and comedian died today at just 50 years old.

Publicist Danica Smith confirmed the death in a statement but gave no further details. “We ask that his family’s privacy continues to be respected,” she said.
His hospitalization was announced on August 1. At the time, his publicist said his illness was unrelated to a chronic tissue inflammation called sarcoidosis, which had been in remission since 2005.
Mac made numerous TV and Stage appearances including “The Bernie Mac Show,” which ran for five seasons until 2006 and lives on in syndication.
Mac was born Bernard Jeffrey McCullough on Oct. 5, 1957, in Chicago. He grew up on the city’s South Side, living with his mother and grandparents. His grandfather was the deacon of a Baptist church.
Whilst the rest of the world might be under no illusions as to how close Amy Winehouse has come to death (one might argue she’s been pounding on that door for the better part of her career).
Her Dad doesn’t think so Oh no no (which is odd given we’d always assumed she was the result of pharmaceutical testing on rabies infected tree skunks).
I digress, In an interview with Britain’s Sky News Mitch Winehouse said “She won’t die of a drug overdose, it won’t be that quick,” instead claiming the star’s painful demise will come from years of abusing Cancer sticks. According to Papa-Winehouse, in the clink hubby ‘Blake Civil-Fielder’ and Winehouse feed off each other’s addiction.
So whoreaye, given that match made in heaven shows no sign of heading to Splitsville anytime soon, there’ll be more of this
in the future.
Can’t wait Wino :-S
Angelina Jolie has given birth to twins – a boy named Knox Leon and a girl named Vivienne Marcheline, her doctor, Dr. Michel Sussmann, told the Associated Press.
The babies “are doing marvelously well,” Sussmann told the AP. “Everything is going well.”
Jolie, 33, gave birth via a Cesarian section at the Lenval Hospital on the French Riviera on Saturday night.

Knox weighed 5.03 pounds and Vivienne weighed 5 pounds, Sussmann told the AP.
Neither Reps for Jolie or Pitt could confirm the report.
It appears Popwreck Parent Brit Brit’s back on the job.

A deal’s been brokered between Britney and former (famous for what?) husband Kevin Federline.
According to TMZ the deal gives the ‘Toxic’ singer visitation rights to the kids in what they call a “Therapeutic Setting” - WTF? If this “Therapeutic Setting” doesn’t involve a straight jacket and enough tranquilizer to sedate an African elephant - we’re calling it too soon.
As if Celebs needed more proof Ashton Kutcher was one of those kids your parents warned you about. Madonna, Gwenyth Paltrow , Bruce Willis and Salma Hayek are among hundreds who’ll now be cuing for a Hep A shot after dropping by Kutcher’s Birthday digs in NYC last week.
New York health officials are urging the group to get the vaccination after a bartender was found to be infected.

Heppy A is usually spread from person to person by putting something in the mouth (even though it might look clean) that has been contaminated with the stool of a person with hepatitis A.
