Yaaaayy!!!

Wendy's is taking over the reigns of best burger chain, according to a recent poll.



The poll surveyed thousands of people and found that 61% gave Wendy’s a favorable rating, compared to 56% for McDonald’s and 51% for Burger King.

I LOVE my combo #7, no tomato and ice tea. Delish!

Diddy Responsible for 9/11? That's what one woman claims, and she's taking him to COURT!

Whaaaaaa???

Seriously, I know folks can be crazy, but really?? There is a court filing that claims Diddy is responsible for 9/11, among other things. LAMESAUCE


According to documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, Valerie Joyce Wilson Turks is seeking a restraining order against the entertainment mogul amongst other things.



Turks, who says that Diddy is the father of her 23-year-old son, claims that Diddy, ex-girlfriend Kim Porter, and Rodney King (yes, that Rodney King) are responsible for the collapse of the Twin Towers as well as physically and sexually abusing her children.



"Diddy went through Kim Porter and Rodney King and knocked down the WTC and then they all came and knocked my children down. Set me up to be on disability and disabled my baby. He put my baby in a wheelchair."



And if you thought that was bad…



"He date raped me 24 years ago and knocked me down him and Kim Porter and Wallace Wright, then Sean Combs and Kim and Wallace Wright came back 18 years later and raped and sexually abused my children and knocked my children down and crushed me and my children daily"



And still more crazy!


"Plus I won a lot of money at the casino in Mississippi and Sean P. Diddy Combs has my chip to my money. I heard he gave it to Gwen Allen to hold but she can not cash it in. I want my chip please help me. it’s well worth over 100 zillions of dollars, and my hospital keys. They put me and my baby in the hospital and broke my baby 2 legs and sexual assaulted my children and crushed us."



Turks is asking for $900 billion in child support, and wants another $100 billion for “loss of income.”

Edgar Allan Poe coming to TV??

According to Perzehilton.com it's happening. It's kind of interesting I LOVE Poe's work, always have even before I realized it was cool to be into Poe. Who knew?


In the series he will be a detective who solves crimes in Boston set in the 1840's. Of course the crimes are dark and mysterious and of course Poe will use unusual means to solve said crimes.

Also...did you know John Cusack is playing Poe in a movie??

It called The Raven....

The Raven is a fictionalized account of the final five “mysterious” days of Edgar Allan Poe’s life. Apparently the famous writer joins the hunt for a serial killer whose murders are inspired by his stories.


McTeigue describes it “like the poem, The Raven, itself, crossed with Se7en.”

The screenplay is written by Hannah Shakespeare (who wrote the 2005 drama Loverboy, and was a story editor on Bionic Woman and Ghost Whisperer) and Ben Livingston.

Machinist/Session 9 director Brad Anderson had been previously developing the project.

The real death of Poe was also mysterious. The writer was discovered on the streets of Baltimore in great distress and in need of “immediate assistance.” He was wearing someone else’s clothes and repeating the name “Reynolds”. He died shortly after in hospital, never able to explain what had happened.

Here is Cusack as Poe

J-Hud an Illuminati?? What about Jay-Z? The Gaga?? Hmmm......

While everyone in the entertainment industry has been accused of being a member of the Illuminati secret society, there’s one person who’s not having it…and that’s Jennifer Hudson. The Grammy winner went off recently on the rumors that she is part of the cult.

Here’s what she had to say courtesy of Rap-Up:
“I’m so glad someone brought this Illuminati mess up because only a child of God would address it,” the 29-year-old singer told fans during her Ustream session. “That is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard in my life. And it’s offensive because basically what? The people that are here today don’t deserve to be where they are? What, we didn’t work for it? So I find—and I hate to go there—but I find it’s those that can’t make it that would probably join Illuminati, or whoever that is, to get somewhere.”
And while it’s easy to buy into the Illuminati’s existence, J-Hud explained that anyone who believes the Illuminati myth is being fooled. “Don’t listen to that type of stuff, don’t follow that stuff because those people are only luring you in to become a part of some mess like that, so know that you’re only falling victim,” she warned. “That’s their way of gaining [followers]. I’d advise you to stay away from it. Those who are reading it are falling into it. It could not be more untrue.”
J-Hud’s sophomore album “I Remember Me” is due March 22.


Jay-Z's Interview with Angie Martinez .....



Also names of people whoa re rumoured to part of Illuminati

2Pac
Rihanna
Beyonce
Lady Gaga
Lebron James
Kobe Bryant

Honestly the list goes on and on and OOOONNNNN
If you are intrigued at all here is the wikipedia link and I promise you, youtube has thousands of hours worth of video claiming to prove and disprove everything and anything. Its a HUGE puzzle and I love it!

Classic novels re-vamped and re-zombified.

If you have been given a classic novel to read for an English class, here is a fun spin on the tales that could possibly make purist literature peeps shake their fists in outrage!! It may also introduce you to the classics!

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Classic Regency Romance - Now with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem!

Average rating: 4/5

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Classic Regency Romance - Now with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem!

By Jane Austen

Quirk Books | March 1, 2009 | Trade Paperback
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features the original text of Jane Austen''s beloved novel with all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie action. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace but she''s soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield as Elizabeth wages war against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Complete with 20 illustrations in the style of C. E. Brock (the original illustrator of Pride and Prejudice) this insanely funny expanded edition will introduce Jane Austen''s classic novel to new legions of fans.


Mr. Darcy, Vampyre

Sourcebooks | January 5, 2011 | Hardcover
Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet.
Mr. Darcy, Vampyre starts where Pride and Prejudice ends and introduces a dark family curse so perfectly that the result is a delightfully thrilling, spine-chilling, breathtaking read. A dark, poignant and visionary continuation of Austen''s beloved story, this tale is full of danger, darkness and immortal love.


Queen Victoria: Demon Hunter

Hodder | October 15, 2009 | Trade Paperback
‘There were many staff at Kensington Palace , fulfilling many roles; a man who was employed to catch rats, another whose job it was to sweep the chimneys. That there was someone expected to hunt Demons did not shock the new Queen; that it was to be her was something of a surprise.’

London, 1838. Queen Victoria is crowned; she receives the orb, the sceptre, and an arsenal of blood-stained weaponry. Because if Britain is about to become the greatest power of the age, there’s the small matter of the demons to take care of first... But rather than dreaming of demon hunting, it is Prince Albert who occupies her thoughts. Can she dedicate her life to saving her country when her heart belongs elsewhere?

With lashings of glistening entrails, decapitations, and foul demons, this masterly new portrait will give a fresh understanding of a remarkable woman, a legendary monarch, and quite possibly the best Demon Hunter the world has ever seen . . .

A E Moorat weaves a seamlessly lurid tapestry of royal biography, Gothic horror and fist-gnawing comedy as he lifts the veil on what really took place on the dark and cobbled streets of 19th-century England




What if the enigmatic hero of one of our most timeless love stories was part vampire? The answer lies in this haunting retelling of the classic tale of Catherine and Heathcliff, kindred spirits bound by a turbulent - and now forbidden - passion ...
When a young orphan named Heathcliff is brought to Wuthering Heights by the manor¿s owner, Mr. Earnshaw, rumors abound. Yet the truth is more complicated than anyone could guess. Heathcliff¿s mother was a member of a gypsy band that roamed the English countryside, slaying vampires to keep citizens safe. But his father was a vampire. Now, even as Heathcliff gallantly fights the monsters who roam the moors in order to protect beautiful, spirited Catherine Earnshaw, he is torn by compassion for his victims - and by his own dark thirst.
Though Catherine loves Heathcliff, she fears the vampire in him, and is tempted by the privileged lifestyle their neighbors, the Lintons, enjoy. Forced to choose between wealthy, refined Edgar Linton and the brooding, increasingly dangerous Heathcliff, she makes a fateful decision. And soon Heathcliff, too, must choose - between his hunger, and the woman he will love for all eternity ...




Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters expands the original text of the beloved Jane Austen novel with all-new scenes of giant lobsters, rampaging octopi, two-headed sea serpents, and other biological monstrosities. As our story opens, the Dashwood sisters are evicted from their childhood home and sent to live on a mysterious island full of savage creatures and dark secrets. While sensible Elinor falls in love with Edward Ferrars, her romantic sister Marianne is courted by both the handsome Willoughby and the hideous man-monster Colonel Brandon. Can the Dashwood sisters triumph over meddlesome matriarchs and unscrupulous rogues to find true love? Or will they fall prey to the tentacles that are forever snapping at their heels? It's survival of the fittest -- and only the swiftest swimmers will find true love!

The next installment in Quirk's much-heralded sci-fi/classics mashup series, this steampunk take on Anna Karenina discards tsarist Russia for an alternate reality where a miracle metal, gronzium, has fueled the development of a thriving robot culture. Carriages and candlesticks persist, but everything is mechanized, including the servants: at the peak of the robot hierarchy are the near-sentient "Class IIIs," humanoid robots who aid and comfort their upper-class owners. These futuristic additions are more than background filler, though; Winters incorporates an entire action-packed sci-fi sub-plot, with terrorist attacks from a group of renegade scientists, an alien invasion, and the growing menace of a certain scorned cyborg husband. The sci-fi elements are carefully accomplished, sometimes brilliantly extrapolated from the original. The Class IIIs, for example, also act as telling externalizations of their masters: cold, duty-bound Karenin becomes half-robot and childish Kitty gets a pink, mechanized ballerina companion. Tolstoy's text is more than strong enough to stand up to this sort of treatment, its force attenuated just enough to allow Winters (Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters) to integrate his additions-a feat he manages with aplomb.
Another entry in the growing genre of horror mashups (ranging from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies to Queen Victoria: Demon Hunter), this volume takes Brontë's classic and turns the Reed family into vampires, Jane Eyre's classmates at Lowood into zombies, and Bertha Rochester into something far more dangerous than a madwoman. While Jane herself remains much the same, the supernatural additions prove highly amusing, turning the gothic elements of the original up to eleven while preserving the story's post-Victorian coming-of-age conventions. Despite her whimsical and irreverent modifications, Erwin displays great affection for Brontë and her characters; the undeniable spark between Erwin's Jane and Rochester is made all the more delightful by Jane's plucky fearlessness in the face of evil. With the possible exception of purists, fans of Jane Eyre will find much to love, with moments of laugh-out-loud hilarity; horror fans unfamiliar with the original will also be pleased, though they'll miss out on some of the comic nuance.


Grade 6 Up For fans of vampire literature, this book can be fun. It is a retelling of the Alcott classic with the March family as humanitarian vampires they will not ingest the blood of humans. Set as the original is during the Civil War, the story follows the traditional plot. The family must survive without Mr. March, who is off at war, bolstered by his abolitionist views. Marmee is home with her four lovely daughters. They are not interested in furthering their numbers. Jo refuses to mate with Laurie, even though he desperately wants to be a vampire, too. The Marches are not shunned from society and intermingle with some ordinary humans, though there are those who would do them harm. Although vampires are supposed to live forever, a strange illness has threatened Mr. March, and Beth does eventually succumb. Thus the role of the vampire defenders becomes important, and Jo is passionate about joining their ranks. Messina has cleverly interspersed footnotes in the text to explain some past vampire accomplishment or event. The serious, scholarly tone with which they are written makes them quite humorous. The author's prose style is sharp, and her imprint on these characters is distinct. There is certainly an audience for this selection, and it may introduce readers to a classic.

Indiana, 1818. Moonlight falls through the dense woods that surround a one-room cabin, where a nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels at his suffering mother's bedside. She's been stricken with something the old-timers call "Milk Sickness."

"My baby boy..." she whispers before dying.

Only later will the grieving Abe learn that his mother's fatal affliction was actually the work of a vampire.

When the truth becomes known to young Lincoln, he writes in his journal, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose..." Gifted with his legendary height, strength, and skill with an ax, Abe sets out on a path of vengeance that will lead him all the way to the White House.

While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for saving a Union and freeing millions of slaves, his valiant fight against the forces of the undead has remained in the shadows for hundreds of years. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, and became the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years.

Using the journal as his guide and writing in the grand biographical style of Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough, Seth has reconstructed the true life story of our greatest president for the first time-all while revealing the hidden history behind the Civil War and uncovering the role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation.
*This novel is being turned into a movie starring Eric Bana. Should be in theaters in 2012.

From allwomenstalk.com 10 reason why is Great to be a Girl by Jelena Jovanovic

Lets start here....


Ball Girl Makes Incredible Catch - Watch more Funny Videos



1. You are allowed to cry


You can cry when you’re happy, you can cry when you’re sad and even cry when there is absolutely no reason to do so. And nobody will call you a sissy because of it! There is no social or traditional norm that says we can’t cry our hearts out but there’s not a single one that says we must cry either. So, I guess we have a freedom of choice, don’t we?


2. We can’t get lost

Actually, we can, but even if that happens there’s a 99% chance we won’t spend a lot of time being lost. Why? Because we won’t drive around in circles asking ourselves how could that happen and trying to persuade people in the car that “we know the road” and that “this house only looks like the one we passed by 30 minutes ago”. We will stop and ASK for directions.


3. You create life

Yes, there is a lot of pain involved in it and you do feel sick enough to think, “Oh, God, maybe this was not such a good idea after all” but the moment it’s all over and you get to see your baby, everything makes sense. YOU did it! You couldn’t do it on your own (yes, men, we DO appreciate your contribution, don’t worry), but you can still rightfully take the credits for 98% of the job done. If the kid is doing good at school you can always say, “Well, of course, that’s my child!” and, if things aren’t going so great you can always send him to the PTA meeting with the words, “That’s your child, too!”


4. You don’t have to look bad


You woke up with a huge zit, or you didn’t even sleep at all? Nothing a little bit of makeup can’t fix! Right? There is a whole bunch of products designed to make us look presentable in times when our natural gorgeousness fails. Plus, everybody already know we use foundation so we don’t have to hide the bottle or stress that somebody may say “OMG! You’re wearing makeup!!!”


5. You can adjust your height

You don’t have to stand up on your toes to kiss a guy and kissing certainly won’t cause you neck pains! Why? Because you have heels! Plus, nobody will think you’re an idiot for trying to look taller. In fact, nobody will even think to ask if you are trying to be taller or you just love wearing heels.


6. You CAN have sex anytime

Having one drink too much won’t affect your ability to perform so you’ll never have to experience that sympathetic pat on the back followed with the “It’s OK… Really.” More good news? If you want sex, all you have to do is ask and when you do ask, you won’t get a slap and a shocked, “No!”

7. Your sex toys can be used immediately


You don’t have to spend a half an hour inflating your sex toys before use. They actually look cute , vibrate and you can incorporate them in the foreplay without the fear you’re going to be considered a pervert. Furthermore, if your best friend accidentally opens your “goodie drawer” she won’t day spend days making jokes about it, but ask if you could help her do her intimate shopping instead.


8. You can say that Vin Diesel is hot…

… and you don’t have to add “But these new supplements will make me even hotter” to cover it up.


9. We can change hair color

And we can do it even after teenage years without the fear of being ridiculed behind out backs. We rarely go bald and, when we start getting gray hair, we have a lot of choices – age gracefully, switch to blonde or start dyeing those grays.

10. You can take off your T shirt without wrestling with it

Do I really have to elaborate on this one? We just cross out arms and pull the T shirt up, no need to break a sweat trying to wiggle our way out of it. Plus it takes like, what? Three seconds!



Im positive there are more reasons why its Great to be a Girl....what are your reasons???

Police Issue Public Warning After Two Robberies

January 7, 2011 (11:45 a.m.)




Police Issue Public Warning After Two Robberies



In light of two recent robberies, HRM Partners in Policing are warning citizens, particularly gay men, to be cautious when meeting people in person whom they’ve originally met on-line.



The first robbery occurred on January 2 at 6:43 p.m. at Point Pleasant Park. A 35-year-old man picked up a man on Tower Road whom he had met on-line and drove to that location. Moments later, two additional men approached the vehicle, threatened the victim and demanded his money.

The victim complied and was not physically injured during the incident.

The main suspect in this case is described as a white man, approximately 20-years-old, with short dark hair and wearing a dark coat and black jeans.



The second robbery occurred last night at 6:39 p.m. in the area of Wellington Street and Lundy Lane in Halifax. A 29-year-old man picked up a man on Spring Garden Road whom he had met on-line and drove to the south end of Halifax. A few minutes later, several additional men approached the vehicle, claimed they had a knife, and stole the victim’s wallet and fled the area on foot. The victim was not physically injured during the incident. The main suspect is described as a white man, in his early twenties, 5'10", 170 lbs., wearing a dark jacket and orange hooded sweatshirt.



Investigators believe these incidents are connected, that the person whom the victim picks up is working with the other suspects and that they appear to be targeting gay men through the on-line dating website PlentyOfFish at this time.



All citizens are reminded to exercise caution when arranging to meet someone in person whom they know little about, regardless of the on-line dating service they use. People should select a well-lit, public location for the meeting where there are a lot of people around. If possible, they should tell a friend or family member(s) where they’re going, with who and when they’ll be back.



Anyone with information about these or any other similar incidents is asked to contact police at 490-5016 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.crimestoppers.ns.ca.

The Diary of a Foul Mouthed 11 Year Old makes it's way online.

You never know what you will find, that's why when I find something interesting I ALWAYS read the comments, more often than not you get a bunch of crap that results in someone calling someone names or something just as silly. FYI Name calling and being a jerk online is dumb. If you have nothing nice to say, keep it to yer self, no one else needs your poison.

Anyway, today I was reading about the difference between a journal and Diary, the debate continues as people express their views, but, I found this comment, which lead me to this blog. Here's the story...

"In 2010, at Ben's 29th Birthday Party, his puny wimpy little brother Oliver announced that he had discovered Ben's top secret diary. From 1993. When Ben was just 11 years old.




To Ben's embarrassment it was read out to his peers, resulting in fits of hysterics and laughter.



But afterwards we realised this was more than just funny. This was an important document, that any boy born in the 1980s will relate to. 1993 was a time before the internet... a time before mobile phones... a time of Super Nintendos... a time of holidays in Devon... a time when kissing a girl was amazing enough, and a time before we started masturbating.



For nostalgia we reproduce Ben's diary here, so you can join us in our memories of being 11."

Here's the link, be forewarned, there is foul language, there may even be entries that raise your eyebrows, but it is an unedited look back. Here is the link

Detox give your body a chance to start over. *Taken from the Feel Good Store in Saint John New Brunswick*

1. Drink lots of water. Then drink more.






2. Eat lots of fresh raw organic fruits and veggies. They're nature's scrub brush!







3. Get lots of sleep. Your body does some of its best work while you're dreaming.







4. Get out and get moving. Once of the best ways to detox your body is to sweat the toxins out. In fact, many heavy metals are best detoxed by sweating them out.







5. Dry brush! A good body brushing is great for clearing off dead skin and letting the good stuff breathe and improving circulation.







6. Cut out or cut back processed foods, refined sugars, large amounts of red meat and dairy. We had lots of decadence over the holiday season. We can some time off from it.







7. How about a relaxing soak in a salt bath. Sea salt, epsom salts, himalayan salts - great skin and muscle detoxifiers. Plus its freezing out. Why wouldn't you want to climb in a nice hot bath!







8. Try some herbs to help you along. Milk thistle, dandelion, nettle, ginger, licorice root, burdock root, marshmallow... We've got a great Lalma detox tea that's a great herbal blend to help you along.







9. Detox your house. How about a good declutter to start the year. You'd be surprised how much weight you can lift off your shoulders from this one act.







10. Detox your mind. Maybe now is the time to start meditating, journalling, write your personal mission statement, make a list of goals, set your priorities for the year and take care of you.

How to look great in every photo! Via realsimple.com

You don't have to look perfect to take a perfect picture. "The most photogenic people are not necessarily the most attractive," says wedding photographer Denis Reggie. "They're just not intimidated by the camera." How do you overcome intimidation? Whether you're nervous about wrinkles or a double chin, the following eight tips will make solving photo issues a snap.




APPEAR LESS POSED "Engage the photographer in a conversation about some topic you both may find of interest," says Los Angeles-based head-shot photographer Michael Calas. If your mind is focused on something other than the photo, you'll appear less rigid. You can also lean against something, interact with a pet or a child, or intertwine your arms with someone else's. Also, never keep your hands right by your sides, says Chuck DeLaney, dean of students at the New York Institute of Photography, in New York City. Clasp them in the front or in the back, or hold on to a glass or your eyeglasses to help relax your body.





FAKE FLAWLESS SKIN
Foundation and translucent powder are quick fixes, but it's equally important to get as much light on the face as possible. If you're indoors, pose near the closest light source, like a window. Also, use a flash inside and outside because "the light of the flash will bounce off the skin, illuminate it, and conceal facial imperfections," says Jim Janis, Walgreens photo-finishing specialist in Chandler, Arizona. Finally, make the most of your scenery. "Photographs taken on a white sandy beach or a snow-covered surface tend to be more flattering because the reflective qualities of those surfaces help de-emphasize wrinkles and pockmarks," says Reggie


AVOID DOUBLE CHIN

Pay attention to the camera position. "If the lens is at your eye level or above, you're in the right frame," says Calas. "If the lens is below your eye level, then you run the risk of looking like you have an extra chin." Bend your knees so you're at least on an even plane with the photographer (assuming it's not a full-body photo). If you're significantly taller than the photographer, sit in a chair and look up toward the camera. Finally, project your chin out an inch or so more than you normally would. You may feel a bit awkward, like a giraffe, but "you'll have a long, thin neck in the photo," says Suzy Drasnin Orduna, owner of the Beach Ambience Studio & Gallery, in Sag Harbor, New York.



KEEP EYES OPEN
Close your eyes and have the photographer count to three. On three, open them. "Works every time," says Janis. If you're outdoors, remember that noon is the worst time to take a photo, because that's when the sun is harshest and you're more likely to squint. Head out at 4 or 5 p.m., when the light is more amber.




MINIMIZE UNFAVORABLE FEATURES

Turn your head. Most people have asymmetrical features (for example, one eye is larger than the other or the right ear is a bit higher than the left). So DeLaney suggests posing with two-thirds of the face in view and the remaining third turned slightly away from the camera. That way, facial asymmetry is not as obvious. This particular angle also has a slimming effect, as it draws the eye up and down (forehead to chin), not left to right (eye to eye).


SHAKE THE DEER IN THE HEADLIGHTS LOOK
Don't look straight into the lens. "Focus your eyes just above the lens instead of staring directly into the camera," says Patrick McMullen, a celebrity photographer and author of InTents (PowerHouse Books, $75, amazon.com). "I usually look past the lens, over the photographer's shoulder," says Miss Louisiana 2004 and first runner-up, Miss America 2005, Jennifer Dupont. "And show some personality. Sometimes all it takes is the slight raise of an eyebrow."

KEEP YOUR SMILE NATURAL
Don't say "cheese," which usually conjures an artificial smile. Instead, ask the photographer to throw out an unexpected word, like "money." This will usually elicit a genuine laugh, and your expression won't look forced. "I always think of something funny, like my disastrous attempts at cooking, to achieve a natural smile," says Dupont. "If you're self-conscious or critical of your smile, practicing before a photo shoot might be helpful, too."


PREVENT RED EYE
Avoid appearing possessed in your next photo by affixing your eyes on a lamp or the nearest light source right before the photo is taken. (Red-eye usually occurs in a dim room when the irises have opened up so much that the retinas, which are red with blood vessels, light up when the flash hits them.) When the pupils fix on something bright, they shrink, reducing the potential for red-eye.




PS

A couple of other tips I have found, include push your tongue to the roof of your mouth also helps to prevent a double chin, always have your arms away from your sides, it will make them and you appear thinner, never stand faceing the camera directly, always angle yourself away.

Bieber + Gomez + St. Lucia = Death Threats for Gomez? Fur Realz thou??

Okay, Bieber fans are insane. I remember being a fan of Howie from the Backstreet Boys, when I found out he was getting married, I was all like....damn.....and life went on. Chances are I would never meet Howie, chances are I may not even like him much if I did, it's disappointing when you meet your fav celebs, they almost never live up to what you expect, they also have to eat and get cranky and stuff like that, but with glossy magazines and big budget music videos and slick choreography, it's easy to forget they are not the picture of perfection we see.

Now with that said, someone needs to remind girls that Bieber is not their boyfriend and even if he was, death threats, not cool. It's SOOOO last year. So when pictures surfaced of Bieber and Selena Gomez made their way online...


Bieber fans took to Twitter and said....

"@selenagomez dont touch @justinbieber you are a b!tch i kill you selena stupid stud you always whit famous boys you are a very very b!tch"

REALLY?! Im not one to talk about Grammar and Spelling but COME ON!

Okay, now who ever spawned this child needs to take some action here. Imagine what this girl will be like when she grows up? Living in an apartment with one too many cats, and the entire apartment plastered with photos of the "Celebrity of the moment" I mean, it's cool to be fan of someone and be into whatever they do, but threatening a girlfriend of a boy you will never meet.....

Mom & Dad Delete this girls Twitter.....then again she very well could be a 45 year old woman, we are talking about the interweb of misinformation after all.

As far as Bieber and Gomez go, obviously they aren't getting married they are 16 years old. Sit tight. and Remember Britney and Justin.

What does Katy Perry Look Like In The Morning??

Her Hubby (Russel Brand) decided to share that with everyone on Twitter. Apparently Katy got p****d and Russel took the photo down, but not before it hit the Internet super highway. Annnnnnd Here it is....

Good Morning Babycakes!
Girl Never Ever compare yourself to celebrity beauty. under the photoshop, lighting, amazing hair and makeup people, stylists etc etc etc they look like us, and besides that they are all STARVING! So eat some cheesecake and don't feel bad if a crumb lands on the magazine, it's about as close as that celebrity gets to it.
