Woman Wants To Cancel Valentine's Day: LAD Bible says Londoner Jody Weston wants Valentine's Day canceled because she says it's problematic for people, who are single.
Jody tells the Daily Star, "Valentine's Day is a time a lot of women look forward to so they can brag about what they have and make others feel inferior. For a lot of people it is their worst 24-hour long nightmare. Some use it as a chance to spread cruel memes all over the Internet reminding singletons they are alone and don't have a special someone in their life, or that they will find out on Valentine's Day if they are being cheated on or not. I've had men I loved steal from me, one ex left me on a holiday I paid for, I've had female friends try to turn boyfriends against me or exes try to turn new boyfriends against me, but I feel its all enabled me to resonate with pain and put my selfish desires to the side. I'm really hoping that people take a second to consider the implications of showing off this Valentine's Day may have on others"

Sarah Jessica Parker tells Variety magazine that she does not want Kim Cattrall to rejoin the Sex and the City show ''And Just Like That''. ''I don't think I would, because I think there's just too much public history of feelings on her part that she's shared. I haven't participated in or read articles, although people are inclined to let me know. We didn't go to Kim for this, you know. After we didn't do the movie and the studio couldn't meet what she wanted to do, we have to hear her and listen to her and what was important to her. It didn't fit into what was important or needed for us. There's a very distinct line between Samantha and Kim. Samantha's not gone. Samantha's present, and I think was handled with such respect and elegance. She wasn't villainized. She was a human being who had feelings about a relationship, so I think we found a way to address it which was necessary and important for people that loved her.''

Candace Cameron Bure tells NBC that she and Bob Saget had a fight the last time they talked. “We were going to have dinner. And we got into a little tiff. And his flight was delayed. We ended up not having dinner. But in Bob fashion, the next day he wrote me, like, what would be pages long of a text. And he was apologizing, saying he was cranky and he was just so sorry. He said, ‘Oh, now I feel even worse. I was so wrong. You’re, like, my favorite person on the Earth and I acted like Dolly. I was getting ready to take a late flight, and I was annoyed.’ Bob went on and on and on in the text. And he said at the end, ‘I love you more for the trouble you’re giving me, if that’s even possible.’ I wrote back… ‘I love you. I could never be mad at you. Roll my eyes at you? Yes. But never mad. And I love that [you’re being like] Dolly. That made me laugh out loud. I loved your mom.’”
The Sun says former talk show host Sally Jessy Raphael recently slammed Kelly and Ryan and Kelly Clarkson. When asked about Kelly and Ryan, the paper quotes her as saying; “I can't take cute or pert. It gives me indigestion for a job. What do they call that? They’re too pert for me. Too cute. They are just though… they’re just, I don't know. I've never felt the need to watch their show.”
Sally on Kelly Clarkson: “Because the broadcasters insist on using people who haven't come up through the ranks. The people who have been news people, who have been correspondents who know what they're doing, who know who's who in show business… that’s one thing. But these are not people like that. So it boggles my mind. It’s only as good as the guy who writes the questions.”

Ed Helms tells the Hot Ones that he actually removed his tooth for several scenes in 'The Hangover'. “Once we got into preproduction, Todd (Phillips), the director, was like, ‘How are we gonna do this? What are you comfortable with?’ And I said, ‘Well, I don’t know. We’ll talk to the visual effects guys.' And they said, ‘OK, we’ll just try blacking it out.’ So we did a little screen test just Halloween pirate costume-style with just some black on the tooth, which actually looks good in person, but on camera it looks terrible. I was like, ‘I wasn’t going to say anything, but this tooth is actually fake in my mouth. And I can ask my dentist if we could take it out.’ I mean, it’s been a permanent implant since I was a teenager. I went to my dentist and he said, ‘Oh yeah, no problem.'”

I got the biggest telling off. 'Daddy you didn't wear a helmet’.”

Dear Fonseca
My husband wants to take our 12 and 13 year-old sons to see "Jackass Forever" this weekend. I am totally against it because our kids don't need to be doing stunts like Johnny Knoxville. My husband tells me I'm too uptight and underestimate our kids. He says they won't imitate what they see in the film. He mocks me and says I'm being overprotective. Someone has to be the grown-up in the house and it's me. No young teenagers should be watching all of those crazy stunts because at some point they will want to imitate them. Would you allow your kids to go and see the movie? Who do you side with? Me or my husband?
P.S.: It also happens to be an R-rated movie
