TMZ’s Harvey Levin Initiates Streisand Scare!

325325325_1_full

“Take a gander at these sly snapshots and see if your eyes are attuned enough to spot the differences we have weaseled in.” “HINT,” TMZ exclaims — “There are THREE differences in the above picture!” I only see one difference. They took a photo of Barbra Streisand and made her look like Jocelyn Wildenstein. Jocelyn is the woman who had multiple surgeries to make herself look like a pussycat. ‘Member her? (I dedicate this song to Jocelyn Wildenstein. Well, specifically the lines, “Pussycat, no! Pussycat, you fool!” Mainly, I just dig the song.) Here are the super obvious changes. Like Star Jones, Harvey Levin is a lawyer and he will tell you so at every…

Christian Bale Beaten By Chinese Police

ap_china_christian_bale_kd_111216_wblog

Christian Bale is currently in China for the premiere of his upcoming movie, The Flowers Of War, and while there he decided to make a special trip to meet a human rights activist, Chen Guangcheng. But the visit went all sorts of wrong when he and his CNN film crew got pushed around by the local police. When the action star asked, “Why can I not visit this man?” he was shoved violently by the dozen guards in olive green military coats who appeared on the scene. Look, when visiting a foreign country, you better abide by THEIR rules or all hell can break loose — including imprisonment. Just ask Amanda Knox. This is no…

Seth MacFarlane — A Crooner Who Needs To Ripen

Seth-macfarlane-album-cover

So, since Seth is my mentor and hero — solely because he created my alter-ego, Stewart Gilligan Griffin — I bought his CD sight unseen from iTunes and I must say, it’s not all that. Seth’s sleepy tunes assure us that the guy has golden pipes, but passion? Not so much. This is a valiant freshman effort, but he’s competing against Barbra Streisand for “Best Traditional Album” for a Grammy award? I don’t think so. Stewie should have helped. Said with love.

Ten Barbra Streisand songs the FIDF (and Jill Zarin) didn’t hear

streisand

Simply-Showbiz.com favorite Barbra Streisand perplexed a lot of people online when it was announced that she would sing in support of the Friends of the Israel Defense Forces (FIDF) at a December 8 gala. Why would the famously concert-shy performer, who has always seemed very selective in the charities she’s supported, choose to sing live for this particular organization? Could anything but controversy follow? Whatever her reasons, Streisand delivered her dulcet notes at the event last Thursday. But then a small brouhaha erupted when Jill Zarin of Real Housewives of New York City acclaim (notoriety?) posted a video of Barbra Joan’s performance online. Streisand’s camp threatened legal action if Zarin didn’t remove the clip. So…

How Cute Is Rosie O’Donnell? Very! “Horseshoe Casino” Appearance [Photos]

ro_dan_cindyem

Right off the heels of getting engaged to hottie, Michelle Rounds, Rosie O’Donnell made an appearance at “Michigan Avenue Magazine‘s Cover Party with Rosie O’Donnell at the “Seven Stars Lounge” at Horseshoe Casino.” View this tweet at twitter.com This reporter and Ro bonded over Barbra Streisand. You see, during the red carpet shoot, I noticed that Duck Sauce Barbra Streisand was playing. So, of course, I had to totally interrupt whatever Ro was doing at the moment to point that out. “”Rosie!!” I yelled, as if the joint was on fire. (That certainly got her attention.) “Please note what song is playing right now.” The song? Duck Sauce Barbra Streisand. Only the instrumental part was…

All I Want For Christmas Is You, Biebs…Err…Baby!

Mariah-Carey-All-I-Want-For-Ch-40878

Justin Bieber’s music video for Mariah Carey-starring song “All I Want for Christmas Is You” will come out this Wednesday, November 30, the teenage singer has announced. The video will be released sometime during the live transmission of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting, which will feature performances by several other artists too. View this tweet at twitter.com Fun project! I doubt it will be as magical as the original — which happens to be my very favorite Christmas song, hands down — but it’ll be fun to see what they make of it. I can watch Mariah Carey romp around in that snow-suit all day…4 real. Yes, I know it’s a problem. But if…
