Seriously? OMG! WTF?

According to IOL, Joe Simpson, one of the creepiest dads in Hollywood, says you will never see his girls (Ashlee and Jessica Simpson) in rehab like Britney Spears.

While he feels for Britney, he says his girls are not like her and would not follow the same path as her. He said "I would never let that happen to my daughters. Hopefully, her family will take care of the situation." I think Britney's family wanted her to get help for the longest time, but what do you when your daughter is 25 years old. Sadly you can't force her to do anything she doesn't want to do. But I agree with Joe Simpson that I doubt his girls will do rehab, don't you think?

The producers of The Sopranos were denied a permit to film in this North Jersey town because the mayor and some City Council members say the acclaimed HBO series negatively depicts Italian-Americans. The owners of an old-fashioned ice cream parlor selected for the series' final scene, however, said such "personal feelings" shouldn't stand in the way. "He should do what's good for the town," Chris Carley, co-owner of Holsten's Brookdale Confectionary, said of Bloomfield Mayor Raymond McCarthy. Permits were approved last week. But after complaints, the council voted again on Monday and rejected them. Officials have agreed to reconsider the issue for a third time next week. The mayor, whose wife is Italian, said: "I don't think The Sopranos depicts the life of a typical Italian-American in a positive way and I still don't like the way people see New Jersey based upon The Sopranos series." He added that he plans to oppose filming again on Monday. "What the rest of the council does, that's their choice. I stand by my convictions." As a member of Unico, an Italian-American civic group, "I am pledged to honoring my commitment to its mission to speak out in defense of Italian-American dignity," McCarthy said. One council member, Peggy O'Boyle Dunigan, has changed her mind and now wants to allow the show to film here. She said she was given incorrect information that Essex County Executive Joseph DiVincenzo disliked the show, and she has been since flooded with calls of support for Holsten's. "If you don't like the show, you can turn it off," she said. "It's hard enough to have a small business in town. I don't want to discourage them." On Wednesday, DiVincenzo visited the store to show his support and said he asked the Bloomfield mayor to reconsider. "Nobody is more proud to be an Italian-American than I am," said DiVincenzo. "I'm not offended by the show at all."

I am not sure how I feel about this. It is easy for me to say so what, but I am not sure how I would feel if I were in the same boat as Bloomfield.

So when the picture on the left came out, several bloggers were speculating that Salma Hayek was pregnant. But then the question was if she was pregnant who was the father? Well People Magazine got the answer to both.

"Businessman, François-Henri Pinault, and his fiancée, Salma Hayek, are happy to announce they are expecting the arrival of their first child," Hayek's rep confirmed in a statement Friday.

Salma Hayek lucked out in the fiancee department because François-Henri Pinault CEO of luxury goods firm PPR, which owns Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent, as well as a French department store and national music chain. His father, François, is an avid art collector owning more than 2,500 valuable pieces, including Picassos, Miros and work by contemporary artistst including Damien Hirst. Now bad at all!

No word from Prenelope Cruz about the news.

Billboard confirms that Eddie Van Halen has entered rehab for "undisclosed reasons" and that none of the current members will be at the Rock and Roll Hall Fame induction ceremony.

Last weeks rumors started to spread that the Van Halen reunion tour was on permanent hold because tickets sales were halted. VH confirmed that the tour was off indefinitely earlier this week. Than reports were saying that the tour was off because of friction between David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen over Eddie's drinking. Then yesterday TMZ got this statement from Eddie's camp.

I would like Van Halen fans to know how much I truly appreciate each and every one of you. Without you there is no Van Halen.

I have always and will always feel a responsibility to give you my best. At the moment I do not feel that I can give you my best. That's why I have decided to enter a rehabilitation facility to work on myself, so that in the future I can deliver the 110% that I feel I owe you and want to give you.

Love,
Ed

To make matters worse, Van Halen will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next week and only ex-bandmates Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony will be on hand to accept the award. Don't get me started on what BS the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony is. There are several inducted bands that can tell you how messed up this show is.
