Rebecca Black To Sue ‘Friday’ And Biting The Hand That Feeds Her While She’s At It
REMEMBER when everyone thought it was funny to go tell a 2 year old girl to go self harm herself to death for making a bad record? Those were fun times weren’t they?
Of course, everyone’s hatred and projected loathing saw Rebecca Black reportedly earning an impressive $27,000 per week, leaving her to cry amongst toppling wealth. That’s the usual trade-off in fairness and at least she got it out of the way before the agony of adulthood broke into her brains and turned her into a listless, jaded husk of her former self.
That said, this hallowed out feeling has already started to creep into the bones of young Ms Black as she’s decided to indulge in a very adult activity – no, not that kind of activity you lisping pervert – as she’s all set to take out a lawsuit!
And so, are we to assume she’s going for the jugular against though who made incredibly harmful comments against her? Don’t be stupid! She’s going after the people who facilitated her fame!

Can Oprah Winfrey Defeat Donald Trump’s Hair?
OPRAH Winfrey wants to let loose her team of stylists on Donald Trump. If he consents to the treatment, we may finally get to see what Trump keeps under his Tidal Wave of hair; that “sunken apricot soufflé“; that UNESCO site of special scientific interest.
Anorak has long suspected that the Trump fringe is maintained by a trained midget gibbon sat on tiny rocking horse.
Page 6 reports:
“Oprah” producers also vowed to treat Trump’s makeover with “integrity” and “not let it become a joke or silly.”
It’s not easy to make a new joke of Trump’s hair, and even Oprah won’t try.
Back in 2007, Vince McMahon tried to get his hands on Trump’s crowning glory. There was a fight on WWW-WTF. The winner loser would get his head shaved. McMahon lost.
Trump’s hair lived on to fight another day. Now Oprah steps forward to issue the challenge. Will Trump yield? Will we get to see the monkey..?

Jeremy Clarkson’s A Funny Foreigner At His Home On The Isle Of Man
JEREMY Clarkson has a holiday home on the Isle of Man. Anorak can’t put his finger on it but that seems to say much about the Top Gear presenter and professional bloke.
The Isle of Man is a British Crown Dependency with its own parliament for matters domestic. You’d imagine that anyone born there would want to get off as soon as possible, and anyone else would only want to get on the island if they were lost, looking for some version of a bygone Britain or a place to stash their filthy lucre and mentally negligible relatives.

Rod Stewart Looks Inside Penny Lancaster And Sees Hair
ROD Stewart leans on the back of a white couch. Before him are his wife, “dewy-skinned” Penny Lancaster, son Alastair and newborn baby boy Aiden.
The tableau is at Stuart’s home in Palm Beach, Florida. Hello! is there to see them.

Kylie Minogue Plays Carry On Aphrodite In Glasgow

Peter Andre And Amy Childs Yet To Deny ‘Love’ Story
PETER Andre has a “LOVE CHILDS”. So says the Daily Star of a photo of sentimental pop acorn Peter Andre and walking Kate Price theme show Amy Childs.
This might be the most contrived headline of the year as Peter Andre, managed by Can Associates, is seen with his face close to that of Amy Childs, managed by…Can Associates.
The photo suggests that Can Associates favours The Orange System for its stars. While the greater celebrity world operates a list from A to Z, life in Can’s Petri Dish moves from Peachy Orange all the way to Carrot, Deep Carrot, Amber, Tangerine and the legendary Vermillion. The ultimate level is termed “Combust”.
