Emmy Awards Show Sucked
Posted on September 23, 2008 at 8:28 am (PST)
The Emmy Awards show on Sunday spend much of the time bashing Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and the woman bashing didn’t help turn viewers in. The reviewers were terrible, and there were 18% fewer viewers this year than last year, and last year was bad, but this year was the least watch Emmys in history. It doesn’t pay to bash a woman, even when you disagree with her politics. Here’s what others said:
USA Today: "It was hideously awful from start to harried finish, dragged down by five amateurish reality anchors who would have been unwelcome as guests, let alone hosts."
MSNBC: "The Emmy telecast offers quality that’s dismally lower than nearly anything else on television. "American Idol" and "Dancing with the Stars" deserve plenty of criticism, but even their worst episodes — typically their results shows, as they lack content and waste time — are more engaging and entertaining than the Emmys … The Emmys need to dump their producers and directors, hiring a team who knows how to produce popular television."
AP: "Are the TV writers still on strike?"
Zap2It: "The entire gambit of letting the Emmy nominated hosts handle the show proved a dud on nearly every level. None of them were funny and because there were so many of them and each of their egos had to be stroked, the bloat kicked in almost instantly."
Fresno Bee: "You could take all the elephants in the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus, feed them rancid chili and rotten boiled eggs for a month, and they could not create a bigger stinker … The night was supposed to be a tribute to 60 years of television. It ended up being a reminder that people grow old."
Next year everyone at the Emmys should just wear wife beater t-shirts instead of tuxedos, and fart a lot for comic relief. It’s like Hollywood is trying to alienate their audience.
Hayden Panettiere Threatens to Kill Reporter
Posted on September 20, 2007 at 8:39 am (PST)The other day there was an allegation that Hayden Panettiere threatened to kill an Us magazine reporter while she was on the red carpet: Here’s more:
Anyway, it was the unbreakable Hayden Panettiere who threatened to "kill" a staffer from Us Weekly over something she wrote about her in a recent issue. Just when it looked like Hayden was about to pull a Sylar on said reporter’s skull, her quick-thinking publicist grabbed her and scolded, "Not on the red carpet." It was a classic Hollywood moment - and one I predict will be streaming all over the Internet by week’s end.
Hayden didn’t mean to "kill" anyone. Maybe the people over at Us Weekly should pass out a dictionary defining slang used by young people. The reason Hayden isn’t happy is because she’s moving from one guy to another like musical chairs, and she wants to keep her sex life a secret. She dumped Stephen Colletti, and she’s already moved on to co-star Milo Ventimiglia. In the video above the Milo and Hayden were dancing at the Emmy Awards after show party, and Milo was tenderizing his new meat with his hands and lips. By the time Hayden hits 21 years-old she’ll have handled more meat than a butcher.
Paris Hilton Drinking and Drugging Again
Posted on September 18, 2007 at 9:15 am (PST)
Paris Hilton is back drinking, and allegedly drugging. Anyone surprised? Here’s more:
An event producer for 50 Cent’s Vegas party loaned Paris Hilton his room key so she and some guy pals could retreat to his room to "smoke" before the party last weekend. A wobbly Hilton then "chugged a vitamin water to quench her dry mouth," said a spy. Earlier in the day at the Kenneth Cole Reaction suite, camera crews were trying to catch her light up a hand-rolled cigarette pool side, but were blocked by security. Hilton’s rep made the expected denials.
No one thinks Paris is cool anymore. At one time she would flip off the authorities, and smoke her joint in public, and tell the man to stick it. Now, she is the man.
Most recently Paris attended the Emmy Awards and hit the bar hard. Afterwards she could barely stand, and tried to climb an iron gate to her friend’s house. She doesn’t take no for an answer. Too bad it isn’t legal to electrify the gate. If only someone could do everyone a favor, and direct her to climb the lion’s cage, and pet the pretty kitty.
Dave Grohl, from the Foo Fighters had this to say about Paris:
"Paris is f***ing lame. She’s more offensive to me than anything. She’s a total, raging, disgusting, rich, lazy party slut. I pray that my daughter will not turn out like her."
Dave is a prophet. If he ever runs for class president, he’s got my vote.

Britney Spears to Apologize at the Emmys
Posted on September 14, 2007 at 12:27 pm (PST)
Britney Spears is reported to be in negotiations with Fox network to appear on the Emmy Awards on Sunday. Her appearance has not been confirmed, "the idea is to have her come on and apologize for the VMAs. She’s weighing the offer." Click here to see video of her Gimme More MTV VMA performance.
A source close to Spears says, "I can’t say this is 100 percent not true. All I can say is that the Emmy people aren’t dealing with her record company, her manager or her agents at William Morris. So if she is doing anything for the Emmys then it’s not going through the official channels."
If the Emmys want to get bigger ratings, why don’t they book Britney as a presenter, rather than try to humiliate her further. She has nothing to apologize for. Britney gave a whale of a performance, and it was everything everyone expected. You know how the media is though, they are like sharks when they smell blood in the water. It wouldn’t be so bad for Britney however, if she hadn’t acted like she was Queen of the Sea. The Emmys should do a spoof on Britney’s performance. Make fun of her, but don’t be mean about it. In other words, don’t let Rosie write the comedy.
