So You Think You Can Dance’s Cat Deeley did an interview with Radio Times and according to IOL when she was talking about the other hosts in America she kind of dissed them.
“It’s a lot easier to get Americans to scream and shout and dance and clap. In Britain, it’s almost as if we’re ashamed of having ambition and drive.â€
The presenter, who grew up in Sutton Coldfield in the West Midlands, said: “When I watch shows in America, I feel that some of the hosts are a little ’Stepford’ – in the nicest possible way.
“It feels as if they’re more worried if the light is in the right place and they’re standing right than they are about communicating with an audience.
“The fundamental part of my job is to communicate with an audience in a very real way. I think I’m maybe a bit ’realer’ than typical American hosts.â€
Deeley said of working in the US: “As much as you hear that you have to be size zero, you have to be Botoxed and have your lips and boobs done, no-one has ever said to me ’Fix your nose’ or ’Get big boobs’.
“I’m comfortable in my own skin and I think that helps enormously.â€
Deeley said of her life in LA: “I can host a show, then just hours later be riding my horse, and no one bothers me because Tom Cruise and Will Smith live down the road and are much more interesting.
“When I land in LA, it feels like LA, but when I land in London, and you see the Thames and St Paul’s on the plane’s final approach, it feels like home.â€
I have to admit after reading what she said, I kind of lost some respect for her. While I agree some of the hosts seem a little Stepford as she put it, I am wondering if she said what she said because she is bitter that the Emmys have yet to nominate for best Reality Show host?

Jennifer Garner took her two girls Violet and Seraphina Affleck to the park to work off those extra holidays pounds and Seraphina looked so awwwdorable wrapped up in pink. It is amazing how Violet is Jennifer’s mini-me and Seraphina is Ben Affleck’s. Now they have to try for a boy to see which one of them will have more mini-mes.
Ivana Trump was escorted off of flight from West Palm Beach to NY not because she is a terrorist, but because she can’t handle rambunctious kids on a plane. No one is a fan of kids running, playing and screaming on a plane, and Ivana Trump hates it so much more than us that she was cursing at them. According to AP when the flight staff tried to calm her down she became more aggravated and they had to call in the cops to get off the plane. When she wouldn’t go voluntarily, the police were left no choice but to escort off the plane. At this point she hasn’t been charged with anything, but she might go on the No Fly List when kids are the plane list.
I wonder if the kids looked like her ex Donald Trump’s son and that is why she had such a hissy fit? You would think the grandma would be used to loud screaming kids by now, guess not?

What has Eva Longoria done to her husband Tony Parker? The NBA star dressed up as John Travolta (with one of the worst wigs ever) to re-enact a scene/song from her favorite movie Grease. You know the Spurs player is never going to live that down by his teammates. That is unless they enter their contest to re-enact a song/scene from their favorite musical comedy and send in the video for a chance to win a trip to San Antonio!
Am I the only who really enjoyed Tony Parker and Eva Longoria’s video?
OK I am off to recreate Empress Nympho’s Midnight Orgy scene/song from History of the World Part I. Men with good butts, please apply!
Tobey Maguire is out and Robert Pattinson is in as the new Spider-Man according to ReelzChannel. The Twilight bloodsucker will be spinning a new web in not only Spiderman 4, but 5 and a yet to be named spinoff also according to a press release from the head of Sony Pictures. Sam Raimi had this to say about the press release, “Decisions like these are always difficult. I know the fans liked Tobey — and I greatly enjoyed working with him — but Robert is the future of the franchise.”
I like Robert (could be because I have never seen any of his movies), but I don’t think he is Spider-Man. He is just not nerdy enough. You need someone a little more wimpy than him to play the role which is why Tobey was good in it Do you think Robert is the right choice?
UPDATE: According to Gossip Cop it is an unfunny April Fool’s Day joke by Reelz. Just for that I won’t watch their stupid channel that hasn’t played The Critic in a really long time.
