Fresh Meat: Roadkill chef Jeff Eberbaugh wants to start a roadkill food hotline for the needy. He says, "I want to start a road-kill hotline. I see so much good meat lying along the road going to waste. It's meat that a lot of people could use, if there was a road kill man to take care of it. I've picked up a lot of animals off the side of the road that have been in better shape than deer that have been shot multiple times or have been improperly field-gutted by some of the hunters. I had a deer run into the side of my van last fall that hit his head and died. He was in perfect condition for processing. It's good food. I've been eating it for years. If God didn't want us to eat road kill, he wouldn't have made it out of meat. I'd like to get this hotline up and running and see where it goes. The idea is just to give some good meat to people who want it."

Danny DeVito allegedly cheated on Rhea Pearlman with an extra he met on the set of Hoffa. A source tells Perez Hilton, "It was kind of pathetic because she was very young and beautiful and obviously just having sex with him in hopes that he'd make her a star. Danny would have his limo driver drive them all over the city and they'd canoodle in the back before going back to his room together. I felt bad for Rhea, and I felt bad for the girl, too, because she was just a naïve kid from Pittsburgh. It was sad to see her pretending to really like him when really it was just because of who he was. And worse, Danny preying on vulnerable young girls like that."
Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes may move to Miami. A source tells Showbiz Spy, “Ryan’s friends tell him he’s crazy to leave L.A.. It’s where his career is and where his friends are. But Ryan says producers and directors will know where to find him. He wants a new life and a fresh start with Eva. They feel trapped in L.A. Eva has a strong liking for Miami. It’s a place of happy memories for her. Ryan says the two years he spent in Florida were the best of his life. Eva and Ryan agree they need to leave L.A. They sometimes feel like they’re exhibits in a zoo, being ogled all the time. It’s not the life they want for themselves or their future children.”

She is too hot!’ At one point she stared Sean dead in the face, smiled, unzipped her pants, and mooned the crowd, but it was really like she was mooning Sean! He laughed and clutched his chest like he was going to pass out. She was wearing a black lacey thong, and her butt looked perfect! So smooth and tight….like a 20 year old’s! Sean went backstage to congratulate Madonna after her performance and witnesses said he was like a teenage boy meeting his idol. It was amusing, and kind of cute”.

Sharon Osbourne recently dissed Justin Bieber when she said, “For me, Justin is.. I’ve met him, I’ve worked with him, I did a TV commercial with him. He’s a really great little guy. But that’s his problem. He’s a little guy. His fans are growing up, they’re eighteen, nineteen year olds now. And that means the little girls, you know they’re young women. And he still looks like that little boy. He needs some hair, or something. I just don’t think, from my gut, maybe my guts wrong ‘cos it’s not a hundred per cent, but I don’t think he’s going to stand the test of time. But you know what, I don’t feel sorry for him, because he’s made oodles and he’s a fabulously nice person and he’ll go on to do something else.'' |
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. allegedly wants Conor and Taylor Swift to slow down. A source tells the National Enquirer, “Trouble started when Conor went back to school in Deerfield, Mass., a few weeks ago – and Taylor not only visited him for a romantic weekend, she started texting, phoning, and e-mailing love notes 24/7. They’re totally infatuated, and Robert went nuts when he heard Taylor will send her private plane to pick Conor up and bring him to wherever she is over the next six weeks. This constant togetherness has infuriated RFK, who says his son should be focusing on school work as he preps for admittance to an Ivy League college – and he’s warned Conor he won’t allow Taylor to be a distraction! Taylor’s unhappy, but doesn’t want to trigger a rift in the Kennedy family – because she’s raring to join it herself someday!” |
