Breaking: More life for Oltl and AMC

What a way for me to start my vacation!! Frank Valentini, who has take over the reins of General Hospital is once again hinting that we may yet see the residents of Pine Valley and Llanview on our screens one day, he told The Chicago Tribune "Both shows will live on for years to come, There's still incredible equity in both of those brands. Maybe you haven't seen the last of them. Keep your fingers crossed." while I'm hopeful that Frank knows something that we don't, we've been on this merry go round before and I can't get my hopes up again.

Do you think there's a chance for All my children and one life to live to come back?

Where would you go on summer vacation if you could go anywhere? I love this question because it opens up all sorts of possibilities in my mind, and the answer changes daily. Right now I would love to go to San Francisco during their Pride!!! All the hot guys, the events, everything just seems to be so fun and warm!! heck maybe I could even get a summer romance!

Programming Note: Vacation

Hola Gossipers,

For the first time in my life I am going on a real vacation, and Mandy is busy with school. So for this week only there will be no new posts, no blind items etc. I had thought about doing a week of "repeat" posts but you guys deserve better than that, so I tossed the idea.

I also had considered doing a week of blind items but there weren't enough to fill a whole week. So instead it's just this one post and a let's talk about vacation. Everything will return to normal on Monday!

xoxoxox

Much love,

Royal Eduardo

Did The New York Observer Out Chace Crawford??!!

The New York Observer has an interesting article over on their website. It talks about all of these celebs coming out like Lance Bass, Queen latifah (at least hinting at it), Jodie Foster and the such and how 'Outing' is considered to be off limits for Hollywood reporters.

That is until they themselves seemingly out Chace Crawford. They tell the story of one young star who is sitting with his male plus one at an event, and when the press gets too close to the star, the companion shoots them a look. "... that’s a lesson Chace Crawford—the dashing, engrossed young man at the premiere—may do well to heed.” I don't know if the reporter was trying to prove a point or what here but it seems odd that they would throw this in there.

This former A list actress and multiple nominee of some of the biggest awards out there is now a C lister on a good day. Well, she still has A list diva attitude though. When she was doing a premierewith some of the cast and was put in a hotel, she found out the director had a bigger room than hers. Our actress was not happy about it and asked him to switch rooms with her. He said no. She replied in a very loud voice in the middle of the lobby, “So help me, you are going to switch rooms with me or I will get on the phone to your wife and tell her all about those extras you f**ked.” The director replied that he did no such thing, and the actress said, “It doesn’t really matter what happened, she will believe it if I say it.”

Kellan Lutz Becomes A Family Guy

You all know that I have lust in my heart for Kellan Lutz right? If you don't then I guess you just started reading this site and I'd like to welcome you with a quick lesson, I have lust in my heart for Kellan Lutz. He's blond, he muscles every where, he did an underwear campaign, he's rich, he did an underwear campaign. What more can you want from a man?

Humor you say? Well then its a good thing that he has that too!! Kellan will guest star (voice?) on an episode of Family Guy next season as the object of Megs lust but there's a twist ."..he’s interested in another member of the Griffin family — and it’s not one of the women,” If it's Peter again I am going to be pissed, I could deal with him wanting Stewie or even Chris but not Peter. Isn't it enough that Peter ruined Ryan Reynolds?


Will you be watching the episode with Kellan? It Airs in the fal!!

Blind: Ugly Divorce

Blind Gossip


Divorces are unpleasant, and many get downright ugly. However, only about 5% of divorces go to trial. A good divorce lawyer will develop a strategy that will enable their client to stand strong and appear aggressive and committed to their position right up until the almost-inevitable settlement.

Once you start bringing in those third parties, though, people crack. Such is the case of this ugly divorce case. These two were firmly rooted in their postions and were fine sniping at each other when they thought the divorce was going to be mano a mano. However, once the third parties started getting dragged into the mess, both got nervous.

These third parties know a lot. They know all about their real motives, their manipulative games, their affairs, their sexual p*rversions, their plastic surgeries, and their ab*rtions. These third parties have little or no loyalty to them. These third parties may even want to hurt them in revenge for their past bad behavior. The threat alone is enough to make one of them crack.

So who will crack first?

Surprise: she already has! Lots of tears and a huge hissy fit over not getting her way with “That F*cker” (she calls him “My Ex” in public and “That F*cker” in private). But this is business. She has a lot more to lose, and she doesn’t want her ex deposed or her real motives exposed. A settlement is in the works, and this divorce will never see the inside of a courtroom. You will see a few more weeks of public posturing, but he has already won. Although we’re sure she’ll publicly spin it otherwise.

Another staff change at this newsy national television show. One of its presenters is out the door. In fact, she is so far out the door that she is going to a competitor network.

Here’s why: She had an affair with the show’s big star. She expected that an affair would lead to a move up the food chain… eventually leading to the seat next to his. Wrong. He is married, she was just a fling… and there was already another mistress ahead of her coveting the same seat!

She was so mad when she found out that she confronted him at work. Bad move. He holds a lot of power at the network. Whoever he wants to stay, stays. Whoever he wants to go, goes. If you annoy him, you’re shown the door. She annoyed him. Buh bye!

What happens to Woman 4, the woman with whom he did have an affair? She is staying put. She’s got a good job and she knows it.

 Why I Lie: A PR Guy Comes Clean

One of the toughest jobs of a publicist is learning how to lie. It’s the one thing about my career that keeps me awake at night. I’m not looking for sympathy—I chose this profession. But as some of you know, it can be a dangerous circle, telling lies to keep other lies intact.

Sometimes I lie to my client’s friends, or his wife, or his girlfriend, or his other family members. Quite often, I lie to the public.

It’s always been my belief that if an athlete is really living a good, clean life, treating everyone right and giving back to the community, a publicist isn’t a priority. If he’s putting up good stats or helping the team win, then the coverage will come.

If an athlete has a publicist, he wants something more: He wants to be famous. There is no other reason. Most publicists will tell you that it’s because the athlete is such a good person, or because the athlete has an incredible story that wasn’t getting told to the masses. We say that so we can make ourselves feel better (and also to sell our work to potential clients—even the spinning needs to be spun). But make no mistake about it: Fame is the underlying factor. And to sell an athlete’s “real story,” to help maintain the image his fame is based on, sometimes a publicist has to hide certain things.

I can’t count anymore how many times I’ve had to say I was out with one of my clients, when I was really just lying on my couch eating cereal. But when a wife hasn’t heard from her man, I’m second on the call list. I am the cover, the ultimate wing man. I’m so good I don’t even need to go to the club with my clients. They just make sure to tell me where they are at all times. I make sure to remind them not to be caught in any photos.

One of my former clients was without a doubt the golden boy of his sport. He was an MVP candidate on the field; off the field, he was seemingly charitable and labeled by mothers nationwide as someone they’d want their daughters to marry. If they only knew …

What no one really knew was how little this client actually cared about the community. Getting him to visit a school or children’s hospital was like pulling teeth. I would have to provide him with a full list of reasons why he needed to do this. Of course, in all of his interviews, he would talk about his social responsibility to give back and how he wished he had an answer as to why other athletes in his sport weren’t as caring as he was. He had a charity, too, which was simply a front to pay his family members (as most athlete charities are).

He also wasn’t the “nice guy” everyone thought he was. One of the last straws for me was a Midwestern bar fight he and his friends got into one offseason. Those nights were typical—not necessarily the fighting, but the utter debauchery. They treated every night like a frat party. If you ask any publicist, he’ll tell you that the male groupie childhood friend is much more trouble than any female groupie.

I received the call about the fight around 5 a.m. By that point, a couple people had been bailed out of jail, and others had received their stitches. A few people at the bar had recognized my client, but none of the officers had, thankfully. My client didn’t live there; he was just visiting.

I spoke to the bar’s managers and contacted people out of the incident report. My job was to keep this as quiet as possible. My client’s team most definitely could not find out—and to this day it never has. In return for a signed confidentiality agreement from the witnesses, we offered up some nice ticket packages, a couple trips, and some memorabilia. Hush money, if you will. And it worked.

Professionally, I was flawless in my execution. Personally, I felt horrible. But as publicists, as employees of some of the most privileged and self-entitled people in the world, my feelings are inconsequential. We simply have to continue the lie our clients are living.

Blind: Star Reeks Of Desperation

Blind Gossip


A few years ago, this celebrity swore she would have nothing to do with all those “sleazy reality stars.” She told friends that reality stars had no talent, made no contribution to making the world a better place, that their antics were “disgusting”, and that she didn’t want to spend one minute of her life thinking about them or being involved with them.

Fast forward a few years and a few failures later, and she now has a whole new attitude. She is currently in deep discussions with the three reigning kings of reality television. What is she doing? Trying to become the Reality Queen! In addition to her recent reality dabbling, she is trying to bring aboard some star friends to do a reality show to mend their reputation. She is also considering staging the ultimate reality stunt herself: Her own wedding.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen! She doesn’t have a perfume, but, if she did, it would be called… Desperation.

What was a fading teen idol doing in a questionable neighborhood late one night? Catching a bite to eat at a local restaurant, uncomfortably posing with the occasional fan for photos, and…  scoring dr*gs?

That’s right. When he thought no one was looking, he met up with the local party girl, who took him into the alley next to a restaurant. Were they asking for menu recommendations? Not unless they come from some shady character dressed all in black in an alley. The hookup girl did the introductions. The two men nodded at each other, exchanged a couple of words, and then exchanged money for a black plastic baggie. The whole deal took less than a minute, and our boy looked very paranoid, glancing around, and pulling his baseball cap low over his eyes. The man in black took off in one direction, and our boy jumped into a waiting car with the local girl and split.

My, my, my, this young performer is quite the multi-tasker! Television appearances , bad music, fake relationships, and he still manages to find time to score a little sum sum in the back alleys. Time to go to r*hab, brah!

Blind: Trying To Get Rid Of Reality Co-Star

Blind Gossip


One of those cringe-worthy reality shows. Frankly, these people are not smart, and none had any kind of success before the reality show. This abundance of stupidity is reflected in their current evil plan to get rid of one of the cast members. They are each telling the producer that they refuse to film with Cast Member A. They hope that if no one will film with her, the producers will be forced to let her go.

Here’s why their strategy is deeply flawed: While Cast Member A may not be the most likable person in the world, she is the one who is bringing in the ratings! And that is what matters most to reality producers. She has the most interesting story lines, gets the most magazine covers, and makes the most money off of branding. So targeting her for elimination is pretty stupid on the part of her jealous cast mates. They would be much smarter to ally with her to ensure their own survival.

But, as we told you before, they are just not that smart. Maybe they will realize that after they get booted from the show. Yes, the producer is cleaning house on this one.

Picture Of The Day: Which Kellan Lutz Do You Prefer

Royal Rant: New Frontiers

My friend Madeline Freeman recently published her book Awaking (Review coming soon), and she did it herself. Now for me, I had never thought about doing that, I always figured I would get a traditionalpublishing contract and they would take care of me. However with her doing this, I am now questioning my logic, am I really too good to self publish? Should I give this thing a chance?

Madeline did a multi-platform publishing, one that she said was rather simple. Her idea of simple and mine may vary but I believe she is on to something here with what she is doing. Yes I have issues with e-readers, and I probably will never own one myself but there are plenty of people who do have them, and if you want to get the widest audience possible, sometimes you have to suck it up and do something you never thought you would.

Like with All My Children and One Life To Live going to the internet. There are some who are crabby about it, and sure there are some people who don't have the internet connection but there are a vastmajority who do! Plus Prospect Park is working to bring our shows back to TV in the traditional format! If the producers of these beloved soaps are willing to branch out and take a risk, not knowing whats going to happen, well then maybe I should too!!

As for me, I will continue to write and create, and hopefully get my edits done one of these days. Once I've gotten past that part, then I will decide how to publish but am more than willing to takeadvice in the mean time!

Barbra Striesand And James Brolin Fighting Over Ex President

In the problems only the wealthy have column, James Brolin is boiling mad at his wife Barbra Striesand. See the 65 year old actor is mad that his wife is having a fundraiser, for the Womens Heart Center, with former President Bill Clinton. Babs and Pres Clinton allegedly had an affair nearly 20 years ago, something that James has never gotten over.

It seems though that Babs sent out tickets for the fundraiser with her and Bill's name on top, which freaked James out. I hate to tell him but Barbra is an icon and well President Clinton was the freaking POTUS for goodness sake, they should get top billing. Yet that still upsets him and makes him question Babs' fidelity. “James is convinced that Barbra still has a crush on Bill, and the fund­raiser is proof,” Is it though? Or is it helping women and their heart care?

Why Did Justin Bieber Refuse To Eat Out With Selena Gomez

Well ladies and gays, it appears as though pint sized tween superstar Justin Bieber is going to become a lot like Tom Cruise. Both are short, and hate for their women to wear heels, unless for a photo op. It seems that the 'boyfriend' no teen girl wants anymore, please god let that be true, got heaping mad when his girlfriend wouldn't change out of her five inch heels.

See Justin and Selena Gomez were supposed to go out for date night, but Justin was jealous that his gf towered over him with the heels on. “When Selena refused to change her high heels, Justin refused to dine out," of course that how mature people conduct themselves. it's good to know that those two are on solid footing.

So, this recent network reality star who is more famous for something other than being on a reality show for a bit was walking down the street yesterday in West Hollywood when she was confronted by a very angry man. The reality star has supposedly been dating this B-/C+ primarily television actorand the man on the street was not happy. The gist of the conversation was that the reality star had stolen her man [from him]. The reality star thought the person meant like he was a fan of the actor and was just joking about the theft of “his man.” Turns out that is not the case at all as he loudly proclaimed right there on the street that until our reality star came along, the man on the street and the actor had been “f*ing and s*ing” every night but because he could not make him famous he went out and found a “sl*t like you.”

Lots of stars currently filming this weird movie. We’ll focus on two of them. She is a young – but very experienced – actress. He is at least ten years older than her, and is starring in several films this year. They are doing a scene together. He enters the scene wearing nothing but a thong that barely covers his private parts. It is not a bedroom scene. She stops filming, pulls her publicist aside, and talks about how uncomfortable she is with the way he is dressed and the fact that he has been drinking and smoking weed and acting like an unprofessional jerk all day. Production shuts down for a while the two go for a little walk. The publicist manages to talk her down, they come back to the set, and production resumes. After filming for only a couple of minutes, she starts freaking out again. Why? Because, seeing how uncomfortable she was, he decided to push it even more. He began doing an obscene break dance right in front of her… starring him and his thrusting crotch. She walked off the set, vowing never to work with him again.

This pretty actress is suddenly everywhere, appearing in half a dozen films over the past couple of years. But while she played a 17-year-old in a stage play just a few years ago (just before her film career really started taking off), she is nowhere near 17. She is actually in her mid-30s. In real life, that might not be so important. As an actress, though, it gets tougher to book those desirable younger roles once you pass 30.  She has never talked about her age in any interview, and after years of battling to keep her real age off of IMDB – and then having the birth year change three times in the past couple of years – her real age is finally listed there. Boy, is she p*ssed! But she won’t sue to get it removed. That would just bring more attention to it.

Blind: Celeb Daughter Smartly Avoids Coke

Blind Gossip

This celebrity was invited to a party hosted by a group of several celebrities with whom she used to be friendly. She did not want to attend the party, but did allow her adult children to go, as they had grown up with many of the people who were there. The celeb directed her kids to call her immediately if anything suspicious or “too adult” happened at the party.

She soon got a call from her daughter (an actress), who reported thatmany of the celebs that Mom knew were hanging around a table. On that table were long, long lines of powder, some running the entire length of the table. Several big names were hovering over the table and hoovering up its contents. Among that group:

• An actress whose beauty has been destroyed more by plastic surgery than by age. She is married to an actor whose career is faring better than hers.
• An actor who is known for only one role in a nostalgic TV show
• The one-role actor’s wife. She is an actress, too, and hails from a famously screwed-up family.

Mom calmly asked her daughter what she thought she should do. The daughter – who is a rising star and seems to have her head screwed on straight – immediately pulled her sibling away from the party and headed for home.
