Barker says Rosie could ne next “Price” host

June 16, 2007 / Jason Thompson

If you’re ready to see “The Price Is Right” finally fail, you may have your chance. According to Bob Barker, CBS is going to “have a meeting” with Rosie O’Donnell to be the new host. He then added, “[W]hether they want a lady host, I don’t know. I’ve never heard that discussed. As far as I know, they’ve only auditioned men.”

So far, everything Rosie’s been related to in TV has either been cancelled or has not gone well for her. Granted, “The Price Is Right” has that cockroach lifespance going for it, but if O’Donnell takes over hosting, you can be sure something will go awry like clockwork. Frankly, I think someone like Eddie Izzard would really make that show, but he’s too busy doing actual work for such a deal.

Biel and Diaz at Awards, no cat fights to ensue

June 2, 2007 / Jason Thompson

Timberlake’s not the only thing Biel has over Cameron.

Look out, kiddies. Justin Timberlake will be attending the upcoming MTV Movie Awards with new girlfriend Jessica Biel. Also attending will be Timberlake’s ex, Cameron Diaz. Back in January, Diaz erupted at Biel at a post-Golden Globes party. Ah, women. Always fighting over dudes that are going to inevitably dump them no matter what. Cameron should feel solace in knowing that Biel won’t last any longer than she did. Apparently, though, steps are being taken to make sure the two don’t cross each other’s paths. That’s too bad. The show might actually be entertaining otherwise.

Downey non-plussed with Burnett’s Awards

May 31, 2007 / Jason Thompson

“Enjoy my work, or I’ll snap that neck.”

Could it be trouble in paradise already for Mark Burnett and Roma Downey? Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps, as the song goes. Word has it that Downey is less than ecstatic with Burnett’s obsession with the upcoming MTV Movie Awards, of which he is executive producer. The man’s certainly becoming the Sam Walton of TV, creating low-quality yet popular crap that everyone and their dead mothers seem to “enjoy.” Like the rest of his productions, the awards ceremony is sure to be “realistic” and decidedly hollow with no real reason to tune in to the thing at all, unless you’re a complete TV junkie that just can’t get away from the set for a couple hours. Come on, it’s MTV. You stopped watching that back in ’94.

Award show may be Hilton’s last hurrah

May 28, 2007 / Jason Thompson

“Like, what’s a license?”

Although Paris Hilton will be heading to the pokey soon, she’ll at least get to make one last big splash at the upcoming MTV Movie Awards. It’s rumored that the ~~actress~~ ~~garbage disposal~~ heiress will be attending the event before everyone forgets about her at long last. If only that would actually happen. The forgetting part, that is. I have a feeling we’ll be getting daily updates from “The Insider” and other media outlets. Of course, Hilton’s already had her sentence shortened for “good behavior,” proving once again that oft times there is no justice. Ah well, perhaps she’ll come out of it having created some designer prison garb. Then again, someone may have already designed a shank with her name on it. Ouch.

MTV Movie Awards not so rewarding for Beyonce

May 26, 2007 / Jason Thompson

Bring it on.

Seems like everything is not all wine and roses for miss Beyonce. You see, Rhianna is slated to perform at this year’s MTV Movie Awards and Miz Knowles is threatening to not show up, even though she is a nominee. This is all due to a man, natch. And of course that man is none other than Jay-Z. Looks like Beyonce has officially landed in Divaland. Unfortunately for both her and Rhianna, Jay-Z’s got 99 problems and a bitch ain’t one. For some reason these two didn’t get the message as I assume they were both too busy trying to use the rapper in hopes of adding a little toughness to their images. Girls, you’re fine to look at, but I wouldn’t wanna live there.
