Sarah Palin Slams Bill Maher for Mocking Son Trig as ‘Retarded’

I never thought I would stick up for Sarah Palin on anything, but Bill Maher mocked her son Trig, as ‘retarded’ and that’s not right. He owes this woman an apology. He was heckled by former Breitbart contributor Ron Futrell, who had this to say in a post:

I was in the back of the room with friends (who got me my ticket and asked me to go – so no, I didn’t pay) and moved closer to the stage, but was still sitting a good ways back. At that point, Maher made a joke about Halliburton (you remember Halliburton, don’t you? Think way back to a decade ago) and still disgusted, I blurted out, “It’s 2013 Bill, you might want to update your material.” That was as much a comment on him using the “R” word as it was about him using old material. Supposed “progressives” are apparently comfortable living back in the day when the “R” word was used regularly on those with special needs. Maher heard me and responded back. Security approached me and asked me to be quiet—I gladly left The Pearl at The Palms. If they want to call it “kicked out,” I’ll go with that and wear it proudly, kicked out after I spoke up because I don’t like anybody treating people with special needs as targets.

Report: Whitney Houston’s Daughter, Bobbi Kristina, Gets Evicted from Alpharetta Apartment

REPORT:  Whitney Houston’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina, is heading for trouble and I hope the people who claim they have her back will stop her. Bobbi Kristina Brown was reportedly kicked out of her Alpharetta apartment last month after months of noise complaints from her neighbors. She reportedly left a classless note defending herself and Nick Gordon as a successful couple. Um, define successful….

According to a Reddit user with inside information, Brown left behind a note ”thanking” her downstairs neighbors for phoning in the complaints that eventually got her evicted.

“Thanks. You are shit at the bottom of our shoe,” Brown allegedly wrote. “Thank you for making a hard year harder. You are a miserable couple, and always will be. You were honored to have us living above you and you couldn’t stand such a young beautiful couple being far more successful than you ever will be. I pray your misery doesn’t rub off on your innocent little baby.”

According to the Redditor, a friend of the couple, the two share a one year old. Among their numerous complaints over the past six months: “Partying until 5 AM on a weekday.” Source:  Gawker

One thing I can say about Alpharetta and the surrounding cities of Milton and Johns Creek, is that the residents won’t tolerate bad behavior, not from anyone. The cops will be called and they do show up, quickly. So, Bobbi Kristina Brown was obviously living among decent people and just couldn’t conform.  I guess Tyler Perry and others aren’t doing such a good job mentoring this young lady because that note she allegedly wrote sounds a lot like something her mother would say.

UPDATE#1:  Bobbi Kristina Brown left the note for neighbor Joshua Morse. He told 11alive.com he and his wife had filed at least 10 noise complaints against her. Like I said, she chose the wrong city in Atlanta to engage in bad behavior.

Here’s the purported note left by Bobbi Kristina Brown:

Actor Michael Douglas Says Oral S*x Caused His Throat Cancer

Legendary actor Michael Douglas said oral s*x caused his throat cancer.  Coming off a stellar performance as Liberace in biopic “Behind the Candelabra,” he told the UK Guardian it wasn’t the years of drinking and smoking that led to his cancer, but “this particular cancer is caused by HPV [human papillomavirus], which comes about from cunnilingus.”

Douglas, the husband of Catherine Zeta Jones, continued: “I did worry if the stress caused by my son’s incarceration didn’t help trigger it. But yeah, it’s a sexually transmitted disease that causes cancer. And if you have it, cunnilingus is also the best cure for it.”

The actor, now 68, was diagnosed with cancer in August 2010, following many months of oral discomfort. But a series of specialists missed the tumour and instead prescribed antibiotics. Douglas then went to see a friend’s doctor in Montreal who looked inside his mouth using a tongue depressor.

“I will always remember the look on his face,” Douglas has previously said. “He said: ‘We need a biopsy.’ There was a walnut-size tumour at the base of my tongue that no other doctor had seen.”

Shortly afterwards he was diagnosed with stage four cancer (stage five is death) and embarked on an intensive eight-week course of chemotherapy and radiation. He refused to use a feeding tube, despite his palate being burnt on account of the treatment, and so lost 20kg (45lb) on a liquids-only diet. “That’s a rough ride. That can really take it out of you,” he told the Guardian. “Plus the amount of chemo I was getting, it zaps all the good stuff too. It made me very weak. Source:  Guardian

I would have guessed Michael Douglas would have wanted to keep what he does in the bedroom private, but you have to give him some credit for talking about the human papillomavirus and its implications.

Will Smith’s ‘After Earth’ Grounded at Box Office as ‘Fast & Furious 6′ Keeps No. 1 Spot

Will Smith’s ‘After Earth’ Grounded at Box Office as ‘Fast & Furious 6′ Keeps No. 1 Spot

Will Smith’s “After Earth” was grounded at the weekend box office by “Fast & Furious 6” that retained it’s No. 1 spot.  Smith’s sci-fi dud, which also stars his son, Jaden Smith, came in well below expectations, taking third place with $27 million, $10 million below estimates. Director M. Night Shyamalan should be ashamed of himself to direct such a horrible movie.

After Earth” has been excoriated by critics, which was beaten by Liongate/Summit Entertainment’s bank robbing caper “Now You See Me,” starring Morgan Freeman, with a haul of $28.1 million.

Sony Pictures/Columbia’s “After Earth” marks a stunning fall from box office grace for Will Smith, who was riding a wave of movie success 10 years ago. Only 12 percent of critics recommended the film, while only 54 percent of fans liked it, RottenTomatoes.com reports.  In other words, “After Earth” was a humongous flop. Possibly the worst movie of 2013.

As of Friday, Deadline Hollywood reports, “After Earth“ grossed “2.5 times worse than Jaden Smith’s “Karate Kid” reboot and half of Oblivion‘s opening” with Tom Cruise. In other words, Jaden Smith’s body of work is the result of Hollywood nepotism.

Rounding out the top five were animated fantasy ‘Epic,’ which starred Beyonce and Colin Farrell, in fourth place with $16.4 million, followed by “The Hangover Part III,” with $15.9 million.

Samuel L. Jackson is set to appear in South African television series “Generations” for one episode only.

Jackson shares a scene with Winnie Ntshaba-Modise who plays Khethiwe. He is seen sitting on the opposite table in what seems to be a business meeting with Mfundi Vundla, the show’s creator.

Khethiwe downs a glass of whiskey as she waits for the shady murderer Khubone played by (Thabo Mnguni) to arrive at the downtown bar.

Khubone finally arrives to complain about her heavy drinking. After exchanging an envelope with R20 000 and a long dialogue Jackson turns to advise Khethiwe about heavy drinking. Nyagunda Ngwenya, Generations publicist said featuring Jackson was a scoop for the show.

[...]

“He was excited to be part of the show. He knows that Generations is the biggest show and has known Mfundi for many years. He spent 45 minutes and the actors were happy to share the space with him and maybe a little bit starstruck. He is the man, the world’s best paid actor.” Source:  City Press

Jennifer Lopez Draws Viewer Complaints for Raunchy Performance on “Britain’s Got Talent”

Jennifer Lopez, also known as J. Lo, is under fire in the UK after a raunchy performance on “Britain’s Got Talent.” Dressed in thigh-high boots and a skintight bodysuit, JLo performed her hit single “Live It Up” but the performance didn’t sit well with some viewers.

The UK equivalent of the FCC, Ofcom, confirmed to E! News it has “received complaints, which we are currently assessing but not investigating at the moment.”

“If we consider the potential that the broadcasting code wasn’t abided by, there is potential we would investigate,” a spokesman for the organization said. “But it’s too early to speculate.”

As much I admire J. Lo for her longevity in the business, at some point she should realize that raunchiness is so unbecoming of a lady.
