I’m not a big Howard Stern fan, but I developed a new appreciation for him after reading his very thoughtful Rolling Stone interview earlier this year. I’m getting such a kick out of this story. Shock jock Howard and his wife, Beth Ostrosky, were getting their drink on for New Year’s Eve when they decided to call up a bunch of people who responded to their tweets asking for their phone numbers. The result was a huge thrill for the lucky recipients of Howard and Beth’s drunken phone calls and voicemail messages.

Howard Stern fans who follow the radio host on Twitter had a chance to get up close and personal with the King of All Media on New Year’s Eve.

Stern tweeted this message to his followers Saturday night: “Beth and I are drunk dialing. What’s your phone number?”

Stern and wife Beth apparently followed through on that promise for the next few hours, at least according to Stern’s Twitter feed, where he would tweet about who he spoke to. In numerous cases, he didn’t reach the person, but tweeted that he left them a voicemail message.

One fan tweeted that he adopted his two cats because of advice from Stern, and Stern tweeted “Just called to hear about the cats. Got voicemail.”

An equal opportunity pet lover, apparently, Stern also called two fans who mentioned their dogs, including one who said that he and his wife were staying home with a dog who’d just returned from the ICU.

To another, Stern tweeted “sorry to interrupt the video games,” and to another, he said “Drinking beer alone. What happened? You clammed up on me.”

Some of the fans then reported on their calls via Twitter. The aforementioned video gamer wrote “Howard Stern just called me! This new year rules already!”

Another lucky fan tweeted after her call: “OMG! It was like the best thing ever! I started crying after we hung up!”
When he was finished, Stern tweeted “Just made my last call. Going to bed. Wishing everyone a happy new year. If u get a call after this…it’s not me.”

That’s kind of awesome. I totally understand that guy who clammed up. I get nervous sometimes talking on the phone, and I think I would be totally speechless and wouldn’t know what to say if a celebrity called me. That’s why Kaiser spoke to the celebrity who contacted us over New Year’s weekend. I would have probably just sat there with my mouth open until I stammered out something unintelligible.

For those who are still raging over the Casey Anthony “not guilty” verdict that was delivered last month by a Floridian jury, a slight bit of catharsis (albeit no further justice) can be had in the news that Anthony has been voted to the top of a “Top 10 Most Hated People” poll. Of course this news will do nothing to settle the unrest aimed at the Anthony jurors, who fortunately have been spared the same dubious honor. C’mon, they were really only doing their jobs. Anyway and because I don’t want to freshly stir that pot, let’s get on with the rest of the list, shall we?

What do Casey Anthony, Spencer Pratt and Jon Gosselin have in common? A new poll suggests they’re the most hated people in America!

These public figures top findings by Nielsen subsidiary E-Poll Market Research, the New York Post reports. Joining them are famous names such as O.J. Simpson, Paris Hilton and ‘Octomom’ Nadya Suleman, all making way on the following top 10 list:

1. Casey Anthony
2. Spencer Pratt
3. Octomom
4. O.J. Simpson
5. Jon Gosselin
6. Levi Johnston
7. Jesse James
8. Paris Hilton
9. Heidi Fleiss
10. Howard Stern

“A lot of the folks on this list are people who are constantly in the news and have nonredeeming qualities,” Mary Ann Farrell, Senior Vice President of Research at E-Poll, says.

[From Hollywood Life]

Okay, I completely understand why Anthony and Simpson are on this list because they’re basically cut out of the same legally-scandalous grain. Also truly reprehensible are Spencer Pratt (and his extremely expensive crystals) and Nadya “Octomom” Suleman because she’s a drain on the taxpayers and acts like such an entitled bitch concerning her own womb. People don’t like Levi Johnston because he’s a reprehensible, deadbeat famewhore and Jesse James because he cheated on and humiliated Sandra Bullock. Naturally, Paris Hilton’s entrance on this list is rather self-explanatory. As to Howard Stern, he loves to be hated, so he’ll probably feel like he accomplished something today. However, do people still care at all about Jon Gosselin or Heidi Fleiss? Their inclusion makes me wonder whether or not the company presented people with a list and asked them to pick which ones they hated the most instead of asking people to name their own suggestions. Pollsters can be so shady like that.

It’s easy to grow tired of Lady Gaga’s constant shtick. She seems to have no “off” button and is constantly dressed in ludicrous outfits, spewing pseudo intellectual pretentious drivel about her “art” and touting how groundbreaking she is while she’s copying other artist’s acts. But after seeing her on Howard Stern, I have some new respect for this creature and the talent that exists under all that artifice. Gaga performed acoustic versions of her songs “Edge of Glory” and “Hair” and they were just incredible. Howard told her it was one of the best performances he’d ever had on his show.

Listen to this performance and tell me that this girl isn’t very talented. It’s hard not to get distracted by the faces she’s pulling though. (For comparison, here’s a link to the 80s style video for Edge of Glory.)

I doubt Rihanna or Katy Perry could sound that good singing acoustic.

In the interview portion with Howard, Gaga talked about how she did coke while she was waitressing in NY and called it “the devil.” The story sounded like most of the other crap she spews about her mythical hard knock life – exaggerated or a fabrication. “I did [cocaine] all alone in my apartment, while I wrote music. And I regret every line I ever did. So to any of the little sweethearts who are listening, don’t touch it. It’s the devil.” Is she talking about last week? She also joked that she didn’t have a boyfriend, since “it’s hard to find a boyfriend who doesn’t mind a good tuck.”

As for what she’s been spending her money on, if she indeed has any left after paying for her costumes, she said that her apartment costs $1,100 a month and that she paid for her dad to get heart surgery and a car.

Just for today, I’ll give Lady Gaga a pass for being insufferable since she seems to have some chops. That doesn’t explain her general existence though.

On Monday’s episode of “The Howard Stern Show,” the shock jock talked at length about various celebrity run-ins that he experienced at the weekend nuptuals of big-shot Hollywood producer Brad Grey. Naturally, Tom Cruise was at the wedding with wifebot Katie Holmes in tow, and while Stern was on the dance floor with his wife, Beth Ostrosky, the two couples crossed paths. Stern perceived that Tom was his usual “friendly” self as always around industry types; as for Katie, she was reportedly “in a trance.” Indeed, that’s the perfect way to describe Holmes ever since Scientology got their claws into her, thanks to the Unhinged, Lift-Wearing Midget himself. And why wouldn’t she be positively catatonic? Beyond the few token film roles within which she’s supposedly immersed herself over the past several years, all that Katie has to do with her time is get audited and go shopping. Then, she goes shopping some more. That last part sounds completely doable at first to us civilians, but I imagine that it gets rather old and unfulfilling very short order.

Speaking of the Poison Dwarf, his career (such as it is) has recently experienced a very dubious uprising. Not only has that Les Grossman horror-comedy come to life, but Tom’s also prepping for the onset of filming for Rock of Ages. To add further gasoline to the ritualistic L. Ron Hubbard-themed sacrifice fire at which the Cruise prays, rumors are floating around that Tom will make a Goop-styled “Glee” cameo of his own:

Reports have suggested that Tom Cruise could soon be making a cameo appearance in hit US TV show, Glee.

Following the success of Gwyneth Paltrow’s appearance in the series, Showbiz Spy has claimed that producers are hoping Cruise will star in the show and create his own character.

It is thought that bosses were so impressed with his hilarious sketch as Tropic Thunder‘s Les Grossman with Jennifer Lopez at last year’s MTV Movie Awards, that they are keen for him to portray a role like that in Glee.

A source told the website: “The producers love the idea that Tom might create a character just like Les Grossman in Tropic Thunder.”

“His dance rendition to Flo Rida’s Low went down so well with audiences and they know something like that would be just as popular, if not more so, on Glee.”

They continued: “At the moment they are in talks with Tom to play a failed and jaded pop star who is now teaching a Glee Club at a rival school but they are willing to let him have a lot of input in to his character just to try and get him on the show.”

“They know that Katie and Suri are big fans of Glee too so they are hoping this may also sway his decision.”

[From MTV}

How lovely. Maybe they can eventually get Goop's character together with that of Cruise. She can do another sex-ed styled skit and dangle a bag of P-E-N-I-S gummies in front of Tom while he follows her around with puppy dog eyes. Whether or not this "Glee" thing doesn't work out, there's also Cruise's newly announced attachment to play a "politician who gets caught in an affair" within a script by Crazy, Stupid, Love screenwriter Dan Fogelman. If that's not enough to satisfy your own personal "need for speed," well, it gets even better from there, for (drum roll) AMC Theaters is bringing Top Gun back to theaters for two very special exclusive dates: April 30 and May 2 (see times and theater listings here). Supposedly, anyone who shells out for a ticket will receive "a theatre-sized commemorative poster," you know, much like the one that young Katie Holmes used to keep on the wall over her childhood bed. Yuck.

Howard Stern has a new cover story interview with Rolling Stone. Unlike past cover subjects, i.e. Snooki, Justine Beaver, Stern seems to actually rate a cover. Advance details of his interview have him speaking candidly about his divorce and how he used casual sex to ease the pain, eventually realizing that it wasn’t fulfilling for him. He also says some very nice things about his second wife, Beth Ostrosky, and his reasoning for marrying her. RollingStone.com has more excerpts, and I was particularly impressed by his meticulous approach to doing to his show and how he tries to read people and pay very close attention the whole time. That’s probably how he gets so many people to open up.

How he learned to interview people
“The ability to interview people and read your subject comes from my mother being very demanding of me with one thing: That I should be able to read her mood and know what she wanted. I could look in my mother’s eyes and know everything. I was trained to make my mother happy. And I swear to you, when I sit there on the radio, I don’t miss a trick because I’ll study it. I count how many times you blink. I watch everything.”

He worked hard for his success
“Radio was everything. I had to win – at all costs, no holds barred. Not to sound like Charlie Sheen, but losing was not an option. I put in a lot of hours of work on it. I listened to every show back on tape. I sat there and thought everything through. I spent thousands of hours editing tapes, writing commercials, incorporating sound effects. I spent endless days and nights thinking about this and nothing else.”

On Charlie Sheen
“I sort of admire Charlie Sheen’s ability to say f*ck you to the world. It’s a fascinating car wreck because, you know, how many people are in Hollywood dying for a hit television show? I don’t know whether to give him a medal or to throw him in a loony bin. He doesn’t care, and that’s not me. Oh, I care! I care what my parents think, I care what you think, I care too much. In a way, I’m in as weird a place as Charlie Sheen. He doesn’t care at all and I care too much. Where’s the middle ground?”

Casual sex wasn’t for him
“After my divorce, I realized, “Oh, wow, I can go have sex.” And I was running around, picking up women. Then all of a sudden, it dawned on me that I really didn’t need that much sex. I just wanted somebody with me every minute. I was using women as a surrogate mother. When I tapped into that, it suddenly became very childish behavior. And really, was it so great f’ing every night? They’re using me for my fame, I’m using them for their beauty, and the whole f’ing thing seemed empty.”

On his divorce
“[Getting a divorce] felt like such a failure. It’s so complicated, and it’s hard for me even to figure out at this point what went wrong and how things that were so good could go so bad. It’s tough. I think I’ll spend the rest of my life trying to analyze that.”

On marrying his second wife
“Things changed when we got married. Everyone before was like, ‘Oh, are you Howard Stern’s blond bimbo that hangs out with him?’ But suddenly, when we were married, it was like, ‘Oh, this is Howard’s wife.’ And that was important to me. Part of the reason I got married was that I wanted Beth to understand how important she is and also how equal I feel she is to me.”

On his current marriage
“In many ways, my marriage now is so easy, but I’m also aware that I could f&@# things up very easily. I could start getting more into my work, and ignoring what’s important to Beth. I’m awfully narcissistic, and I have to keep that in check. I can’t be like King Tut sitting there and expect to be taken care of, because so many times we can turn our wives into mothers.”

I saw Private Parts and it really portrayed the love story between Howard and his first wife, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised at how much of a monogamist he is. I was pretty fascinated by this interview, particularly with the way Howard described his career and being such a perfectionist about it. He’s an incredibly interesting guy, and he’s not just the shock jock that people who don’t listen to his show might assume he is. The guy definitely earned his success, whether you agree with the way he went about it or not.

David Arquette went to Howard Stern’s show AGAIN. For the second time in a month, since David and Courteney Cox announced their split. David says at the beginning at the interview that the first time he came on, he told the truth and everyone got mad. Howard also says to David that he feels bad about the first call and all the stuff about what was said. Like his admission that he nailed that Jasmine Waltz broad. In this interview that David criticizes Jasmine as being a “clown” who “should sew up her vagina” (for real). His point is that “everyone is out for the hustle” and these girls are just looking to nail a famous guy and sell their story. He has stuff to say about Gloria Allred too (ha), and stuff about the state of his relationship with Courteney (the audio is really NSFW, just FYI):

David Arquette returned to the scene of the crime Wednesday – The Howard Stern Show – where the easygoing actor emotionally vented once again about his break-up with Courteney Cox earlier this month.

Stern, like last time, got the dirt out of the Scream star, who admitted he’s hooked up with another woman since the split with Cox – a sexy blonde Australian. (As we previously reported, the first girl he slept with was bartender Jasmine Waltz, a Megan Fox look-a-like who’s been romantically liked to Ryan Seacrest, Jesse McCartney and Paris Hilton’s ex Doug Reinhardt.)

“I’m pretty sure I’m up sh**’s creek right now,” the boyish film star said. “After the first girl I slept with, I was crying. I know that’s not very sexy. What it does lack is that emotional love that I always have with Court.”

He said the sex — presumably with waitress Jasmine Waltz — wasn’t as special because it lacked “that emotional love that I always had with Court.”

Asked if he’s sleeping with anyone new these days, Arquette, 39, replied, “…There’s some stuff happening,” and then admitted bedding a blonde Australian he met at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.

When Stern recommended Arquette date Jennifer Aniston, Arquette laughed. “Not right, not good,” he said.

Arquette also let out another gem: there was no prenuptial agreement between he and Cox.

Stern replied, “Can you count to 50 [million dollars]?”

Arquette said he has no ill feelings toward Cox’s Cougar Town co-star Brian Van Holt, who she might be involved with in the wake of the split.

“Everyone has their problems but she is incredible,” he said of Cox. “Any guy would be blessed to be with her. I don’t have any hard feelings for anyone. This is life and we are just going through it publicly.”

He also admitted he has been “drinking a little more” since Cox left him. (He even downed a few on his way to Stern’s show. “I did, yes,” he said. “I was on the red eye.”)

The biggest message he tried to convey? He’s “still f*****g in love with my wife,” he said.

When Stern asked if Cox doesn’t want to be with him, Arquette replied, “I don’t know about that … we gotta kind of make this separation more separate … It’s just not so easy to communicate.”

David sounds… slightly unhinged in the interview. Maybe that’s not the right word. Just… sad. Like he’s been living it up and he feels empty and alone and lonely and confused. I will give this to Arquette: I think he really sounds honest, and like he’s trying to explain what happened. I don’t buy this is a PR move, I think David is really trying to tell his truth.

Here’s that Jasmine Waltz girl, wearing Megan Fox’s 2008 face:

I know some of you have been mentioning this all day, but I had to wait until I could find some transcripts of this sh-t on other sites. This morning, David Arquette called into Howard Stern’s show to discuss the announcement of his separation from Courteney Cox, and how they’ve both been seeing other people… maybe. David just seems to have confirmed that yes, he was sleeping with that Jasmine Waltz chick, the one who allegedly punched Lindsay Lohan. Here are some of the highlights from what David discussed with Stern (who was apparently very nice to him, shock).

David on their separation: “It breaks my heart,” he said of their decision to separate, adding that he is “not the one that called this [separation] in order. “I’ve been begging Courteney to get back with me,” he later added. “She’s conflicted too.”

On what went wrong: During the very candid conversation, Arquette, 39, implied that Cox, 46, grew tired of his kooky ways. For their 11th wedding anniversary this past June, she bought him a motorcycle. “She said to me, ‘I don’t want to be your mother anymore,’” he recalled. “And I appreciated that about her … She didn’t want to tell me, ‘Don’t do that.’ She didn’t want to nag me anymore. I’ve been going to therapy. I’m trying to grow up. I’m trying to be true to myself. Trying to figure out myself and my world, as is she.” Without elaborating, Arquette said that he had started doing things that would “embarrass” his wife publicly. (He recalled she once told him not to get any more tattoos.) His kooky behavior probably seemed “charming” to her when they first met on the set of Scream in 1996, he said. “But that stuff starts getting old.”

On when they actually split: By the time they started filming Scream 4 in Ann Arbor, Mich., this summer, he said he was “feeling distance.” He said they hadn’t been intimate “in a month or so.” (His wife is “real and emotional… She’s an emotional woman and if it doesn’t feel right, then she doesn’t feel like bonding in that way,” he said.)

On being himself within the marriage: He said he remembers telling her, “‘If you’re not my mother anymore, I am going to be myself.’” He said he found himself going out with the younger castmates and having fun. “She wants me to be who I am,” he said of Cox. “She needs to make that decision if this is person she wants to spend her life with or not.”

On Courteney’s problems: Cox also has had “her issues,” Arquette said. “She tries to take on everybody’s problems. She’s the mother to everyone. That’s why she doesn’t want to be the mother to me anymore.”

On the cheating stories: He denied that anyone cheated. He confirmed that he has gotten intimate with L.A. cocktail waitress Jasmine Waltz (“my one conquest”), but he stressed, “I am a single man” — and they are no longer together. As for reports this past spring that Cox was getting cozy with her Cougar Town costar, Brian Van Holt, Arquette said he confronted her and she denied an affair. “I do believe her … I truly don’t think she ever had an affair,” he said, adding that if anything perhaps they formed an “emotional” bond. Asked if she ordered the separation because she wanted to see other people, Arquette said, “Maybe. I don’t know.”

On their daughter Coco: How is daughter Coco coping? When they recently broke the news to her, they took her to the beach and had a picnic. He said they explained to her that “‘we’re grown-ups .. and grown-ups need to figure out their lives.’” “‘Are you guys getting divorced?’” he recalled her asking. “‘No, we’re taking time off to know … what we want out of our mate better,’” he remembered telling her.

Where David and Courteney are now: Arquette wanted to stress that he and Cox are “still tight. I love her with all my heart and she loves me with all her heart … We’re trying to get real with each other, real with ourselves. “I want her to be happy,” he later said, “more than I was happiness for myself.”

This kind of breaks my heart. David seems… well, if I was Courteney, I would be really worried that I was coming across like a major bitch while my estranged husband pours out his heart in a candid and emotional (and denial-filled?) conversation with Stern. I also feel like David is pretty much indicating that yes, he had a lot of faults, but that Courteney was the one to jump ship, that she was the one to push him away. And you know what? I think David probably is a nice guy. Is he immature and strange and needy? Sure. But Courteney knew what she was getting. She knew what he was like – and maybe I don’t blame her so much for being tired of mothering him after more than a decade together. But I do think they split after she had carefully arranged her jump-off, in the form of Brian Van Holt. Just my opinion.

There are a couple of stories about Oscar-nominated actress Gabourey Sidibe today. I’ll start with the happy feel-good one because I don’t want to get into the negativity right away. Gabby was thrilled to meet her childhood crush, JC Chasez from ‘N Sync, and the two shared a dance together that will hopefully be aired on MTV’s “America’s Best Dance Crew”! It’s clear that Sidibe, 26, is seeing her dreams come true. I’d love to see this episode of her dancing with Chasez and wonder when it airs!

Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe is soaking up her newfound fame by living out her childhood dream of meeting ex-N*SYNC-erJC Chasez.
A longtime fan of the former boy band, Gaby at one time even expressed that she wanted Justin Timberlake to be her date to the Academy Awards. She instead brought her mom.
But on Tuesday, the ‘Precious’ star did have a chance to dance her heart out with JC at a taping of MTV’s “Randy JacksonPresents America’s Best Dance Crew,” where the former Mouseketeer serves on the judging panel. When she was told that the admiration was mutual between herself and JC, she said, “Wow, what kind of world do I live in now?!”

[From ET Online]

I don’t know a lot about Gabby as she’s new on the scene, but she really won me over when she told Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet at the Oscars that “if fashion were porn this dress would be the money shot.” I love that line! She also enthused recently about Kaiser’s boyfriend, Gerard Butler, and said “I’d hit that!”

In other news, there’s of course the controversy over Howard Stern ragging on Gabby for her weight. Stern refuses to apologize and is sticking to his guns despite widespread condemnation from just about everyone. Kaiser pointed me to this follow-up Stern did on his show in which he’s responding to the fallout from his comments. He doesn’t apologize and keeps talking smack, as can be expected.

Howard said “Obesity in this country is out of control… you do see people now saying it’s ok to be this heavy… I don’t see a difference between what our Artie did… [trying to kill yourself] and I feel this girl in a slower way… she’s going to kill herself. I did enjoy her performance, I have nothing against her… The fact is, she’s enormous.” Then Howard and his sycophant Robin discussed how they were wrong that Gabby wouldn’t get roles due to her weight, and said that they’ve since learned she does have quite a few parts lined up. Robin used that to say that people were somehow rewarding her for being heavy. “That’s more people saying ‘stay this way… we’re hiring you like this.‘” Howard also said that Gabby didn’t really act in Precious and that she just “walked around looking out of it.”

Howard and Robin are so wrong. So we have an epidemic of overweight and obese people in America, and somehow that means we should never embrace less than a handful of actors and actresses who represent a significant portion of the population because it means that we’re somehow condoning it? Actors and actresses are tiny compared to the rest of the country and while we like to look at gorgeous skinny people we also want to see people that represent us and our friends and family. Not everyone is perfect-looking and we want more than just one actress who can play a heavier person of color. I guess I understand why this is some kind of stupid controversy, whipped to a frenzy by the king of sh*t stirring, but it seems so overblown. This is a talented actress who happens to be obese. We need someone to play those parts and it’s up to her if she loses weight or not. Of course her health is at risk, but she knows that and it’s just mean to keep harping on it like she has no right to earn accolades for her acting ability.

Howard Stern held his mistress pageant today from among the participating women who slept with golfer Tiger Woods. Jamie Jungers, a bleached blonde former stripper and paid escort (which she denies, although madam Michelle Braun has the 1099 forms to prove it) took home the $75,000 prize from cheaters website AshleyMadison.com, along with a black diamond “mistress ring” with 4.5 carats total weight. (Note that the link has the top prize at $100,000, but photos show that it was $75,000. Here’s a link to a photo of Jungers in her tiara carrying the check. She seems to have lost some weight since she last did interviews.) Jaimee Grubbs, a brunette reality show contestant who shared text messages from Tiger with US Magazine, placed second and earned $15,000.

Both Jaimee and Jamie share the laughable honor of having slept with the worlds greatest golfer along with sporting what’s called an “anti-eyebrow piercing,” or a small stud in the teardrop area underneath the eye. (It just seems interesting to me that both Ja(i)m(i)ees have the same odd piercing.) Also participating in the pageant was Loredana Jolie (below) who previously told the press that Tiger enjoyed sex with men as well as all the women he was juggling on the side. She is said to be writing a tell-all book.

There aren’t many details available online about Stern’s pageant, except for the winner and runner up. Stern has yet to put any photos or text from today’s show on his website. TMZ sheds some light onto how blonde Jamie won, though. They say she told Howard “a bunch of personal information about Tiger … like the size of the club, what he wanted from her sexually speaking, and on and on.” I’d be interested in hearing that, but many of you would rather take a pass I’m sure.

Jungers previously said that she asked Tiger for money to help her out and that he turned her down. I’m sure this scandal is the best thing that’s happened to her in a long time.

See, this is what I was afraid of, and this is what I, in my small way, was trying to do my best to avoid in the awards coverage. It seems Howard Stern decided that it was his place to slam Oscar nominee Gaby Sidibe, describing her as “the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen” and “an enormous woman the size of a planet.” Most disgusting is that Howard decided (by royal douchey fiat, it seems) that Gaby will never work in Hollywood again, because “What movie is she gonna be in?” Ugh. Here’s more:

Howard Stern unleashed a vicious attack on Gabourey Sidibe on his Sirius satellite show on Monday.

“There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen. She is enormous. Everyone’s pretending she’s a part of show business and she’s never going to be in another movie,” he said. “She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?”

He and co-host Robin Quivers went on to discuss the impossibility of Gabby finding any work in Hollywood after ‘Precious.’

“And Oprah’s lying and saying you’re going to have a brilliant career,” said Robin.

“Oprah’s another liar, a filthy liar,” said Stern. “She’s telling an enormous woman the size of a planet that she’s going to have a career.”

It looks like Gabby will prove Stern wrong. She is lined up to appear on the new Showtime series ‘The C Word’ and her next big-screen appearance will be opposite Zoe Kravitz in the drama ‘Yelling to the Sky.’

[From HuffPo]

Now, I’m not going to pretend that Gaby is on the same career track as, say, another Best Actress nominee like Carey Mulligan or someone like that. Gaby’s not going to have that kind of career, and that’s fine. However, a casting director source told PopEater‘s gossip guy that: “I’m not saying it’s correct, but it’s a simple fact that she will have to lose a lot of weight if she wants to keep getting parts. The same thing happened to Nikki Blonsky from ‘Hairspray.’ Everyone said how great she was, and she hasn’t worked since.” Now, considering that she’s already got some projects lines up, and her humor, grace and class throughout this whole awards process has won her significant and powerful allies in the Hollywood community, I’d say the chances are pretty good that Gaby will be a working actress for years to come.

As far as Stern’s rant… ugh. I don’t even have words. I’ve never understood people who think Stern is God. He’s just some misogynistic douche. He’s like John Mayer, all grown up.
