We only have so much space for titles, so here’s the full quote from Kirstie Alley, who was told by the interviewer that she paved the way for plus-sized actresses and was joking in her response – I think. She said “If I had something to do with more full-figured women being in mainstream and having their own shows, then I will take total credit for that.” How do you capture that in a title that fits though? You don’t. So I don’t think she’s being as full of herself as that title may suggest.

Kirstie was on ET promoting her upcoming TV Land series, Kirstie. It’s a sitcom that co-stars fellow Cheers alum, Rhea Pearlman, along with Michael Richards of Seinfeld. (Remember him and what a racist a**hole he is? I’m surprised he’s getting work still.) The premise is complicated so I’ll just quote USA Today “Alley will play Broadway star Madison ‘Maddie’ Banks, whose life goes topsy-turvy when Arlo (Petersen), the son she gave up after birth, shows up after his adoptive parents have died. The nerdy Arlo doesn’t fit Maddie’s lavish lifestyle, but her assistant and best friend, Thelma (Perlman), and driver, Frank (Richards), persuade her to give the young man a chance.” It sounds dumb and predictable, right?

Anyway Kirstie was asked about paving the way for other larger ladies and she joked about it and heaped praise on the latest generation of bigger actresses, including Melissa McCarthy and Rebel Wilson. They also had a quick interview with Rebel about her upcoming fall ABC comedy, Super Fun Night, and she had some nice things to say about body image. It was kind of awesome.

Kirstie Alley is making her return to television this fall, where the landscape has changed for female leads since her 2005 show Fat Actress.

When Kirstie’s Showtime show left the air it also seemed to leave a mark, paving the way for actresses like Rebel Wilson, whose new sitcom Super Fun Night is coming soon to ABC.
“If I had something to do with more full-figured women being in mainstream and having their own shows, then I will take total credit for that,” Kirstie joked with ET’s Rob Marciano.

One of the reasons the Golden Globe winner did Fat Actress was to prove that she’s still a funny, beautiful and talented person regardless of her weight. Similarly, Rebel also has a message to get across.

“I like that with Super Fun Night I’m kind of encouraging girls who may not feel that they’re the prettiest or the most popular to just get out there and have a life,” said Rebel. “I think that’s a really good message.”

You can catch Kirstie in her new self-titled show this fall on TV Land.

[From ET Online]

I know exactly what Rebel is talking about. You feel like you’re not worthy sometimes because you’re not the size you want to be or are used to being. That’s a great message. I’m going to put the preview for Rebel’s show Super Fun Night below, but first I wanted to make a minor point. It would be awesome if we could have actresses of all sizes as comedians, romantic love interests and dramatic actresses. Too many times the heavier women are relegated to comedy. (Although Rebel is awesome and it’s hard to see her anywhere else. She’s an incredible comedian.) We can have a larger love interest in a romantic film and not have the character’s size be the point! I would just like to see more variations in women on the big and small screen.

Here’s the trailer for Super Fun Night. It looks funny! (Note: I could not find a trailer for Kirstie’s show. All I found is a video in which she makes the announcement that her show has been picked up.)

Kirstie Alley really needs to step away from the social media with her crazy Scientology bias against psychiatry. Everyone’s favorite Xenu puppet of delusion took to her Twitter account after she happened to catch a television commercial for the Abilify antidepressant. I think I’ve seen the ad spot she’s talking about, which is one that shows a bouncing happy face. Well, Kirstie seems to believe that children will see this commercial and want to take this drug, you know, just for fun. Say what?

Just for a second, let me backtrack and say that I don’t agree with Kirstie when she says that psychiatric drugs are the devil, but I don’t think that kids should take them unless it’s absolutely necessary. I don’t doubt that there are some children whose parents will medicate them because it’s easier than dealing with behavioral problems. One of my friends went through a big custody battle in court and won sole custody of his daughter because the mother kept doctor shopping, and the poor little girl was on all kinds of meds because, well, let’s just say that the mother had issues of her own. In that case, the court-appointed doctor determined that (just like the father suspected) this little girl did not have any psychiatric problems, but this was a very extreme case where the mom just kept insisting that her kid take these drugs to be “fixed.”

In contrast, there are kids who do genuinely benefit from drugs for depression, ADHD, and other mental-health maladies. Some kids (and adults) really need such such medication, but Kirstie doesn’t see that, of course. She’s conditioned to follow the L. Ron Hubbard-dictated doctrine that holds psychiatry out as the root of all evil — including the Holocaust and the Xenu volcano debacle. As such, we can’t expect any common sense from Kirstie in this department, and here are some of the bizarro things she said on Twitter about pharmaceutical companies and their eeevil drugs:

“HOW is it legal to INTICE people to down TWO mind altering drugs by using cartoon characters to depict the DRUGS? ABILIFY. Big PHARMA not marketing to youth? ABILIFY… Talking umbrella, cute little smiley pill, while lethal side effects like suicide r rattled off. I have a great name for a psych drug NOT targeted at children…Broccoli-ifi. At least when that dirty creep across from the campus is selling smack we see the intensity of it. Same dude on TV Drug ads…just bathed. You can hate me for my viewpoint .but on this it won’t change..some things are just not right..a ‘little bit of slavery’ is not acceptable”

[From Kirstie Alley on Twitter]

Does anyone else find it ironic that Kirstie is likening psychiatry to the promotion of slavery when the CO$ itself runs on slave labor? From young children in the Sea Org to Tom Cruise’s mechanics and housekeepers, the entire cult relies on slavery. Yet all of that is easy for delusional celebrity members to ignore when pushing their cult’s wacky ideology. L. Ron Hubbard hated psychiatrists because he felt that doctors at the Veteran’s Administration had failed him.

Somehow though, traces of psychiatric drugs were found in Hubbard’s system after his death, but celebrity members will never acknowledge such truths. Remember how Tom Cruise famously jabbed his finger at Matt Lauer and gave him a profound lecture on “psychiatric abuses” while promoting War of the Worlds? Tom insisted that poor Brooke Shields didn’t need antidepressants for postpartum depression because “there’s no such thing as a chemical imbalance.” That’s basically the same deluded point of view that Kirstie is presenting in her silly Twitter rant. How unfortunate.

The National Enquirer has a new article this week that’s basically a no-brainer. Apparently Patrick Swayze’s widow, Lisa Niemi, despises Kirstie Alley. Alley recently claimed in her new book, and publicity tour, that Patrick was in love with her in 1985 when they were both married to other people and were co-stars on a TV movie called “North and South.” In Kirstie’s Xenu-addled mind, Patrick was madly in love with her, even though he turned her down cold for sex when they were both drunk, telling her “you’re drunk,” “you don’t really want to do it,” and “you’re not that kind of girl.” It sounds more like an infatuation on Kirstie’s part than a love affair, but Kirstie takes it further and claims in her book that Patrick was constantly asking her to divorce her then-husband and run away with him. That’s the exact same thing that she claimed about John Travolta – that nothing happened between them but she wanted to run away with him. She’s got some serious problems, and it gets worse as we’ll get to in a moment.

Here’s part of the Enquirer’s account about Lisa’s response to Kirstie, with more in their current issue with Kirstie on the cover:

Heartbroken Lisa Niemi feels so betrayed by her once-close pal that sources say she wanted to scream at Kirstie: “I hate you! Patrick never loved you! How could you do this to me?”

Kirstie dropped the bombshell just as Lisa was starting to rebuild her life. She recently began dating Florida jeweler Albert DePrisco after losing her husband of 34 years to pancreatic cancer at age 57 in 2009.

“Lisa has so many happy memories of her marriage to Patrick,” said the source. “Now, Kirstie has sullied those memories by trying to cash in on her friendship with him…”

In her new memoir… [Kirstie] writes that she and [Patrick] tried to “avoid going to that road,” but couldn’t help falling in love.

“He exuded that anything was possible,” Kirstie writes. “The emotions and dialogue escalated daily. One night, toward the end of the shoot, I got fairly drunk, dirty-danced for hours, and then succumbed. We made out with each other.”

While the two weren’t sexually intimate, Kirstie writes that Patrick “asked me one last time to divorce my husband and make a new life with him. He was very persuasive. The decision of whether to run off with him was torturous.”

Ultimately, Kirstie… said she turned Patrick down after confession her forbidden love to her father and him telling her: “You’re married. Knock if off.”

[From The National Enquirer, print edition, November 26, 2012]

So she propositioned Patrick for sex and he turned her down, but she still took his suggestion that they run off together seriously, and no amount of ensuing years have helped her realize that he was just being flirty. The Enquirer has yet another article that analyzes her ridiculous book. Apparently Kirstie has a pattern of claiming men are in love with her, even though they’re just platonic friends and she’s never slept with them. She also claims that Woody Harrelson tried to have sex with her back when they were filming Cheers in the late 80s and early 90s, but that she turned him down. Her book has a lot of these type of “it could have been stories” with no actual sex.

In her explosive book, Kirstie says both Swayze and Travolta begged her to run off with them and describes them as the great loves of her life…

But an insider revealed: “Kirstie says she never consummated her feelings for either of them. In fact, Swayze stopped her when she threw herself at him.

“Although she also says she was tempted to have an affair with her ‘Cheers’ co-star Woody Harrelson, she never did. She even claims a cougar relationship with her ‘Dancing with the Stars’ partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy, but they were never lovers either.”

In her book, Kirstie says Woody constantly pestered her for sex, and one night while staying at her house with a girlfriend, he knocked on her door at midnight, but Kirstie says she turned him down “half wishing I wasn’t married that night and would band her brains out.”

And about her cougar relationship with Maksim, she writes that she’d “catch him staring at me in a sort of awe” and “it shocked me that I ended up loving him to the degree that I did.”

“It’s genuinely bizarre, Kirstie has written a kiss-and-tell book primarily about the famous men in her life – and yet there’s very little kissing or telling with any of them,” said the insider.

[From The National Enquirer, print edition, November 26, 2012]

I don’t know what’s more pathetic, the fact that Kirstie thought that all these men were in love with her, or the fact that she believes her own delusions and hype so much that she wrote a book about it and shared it with the world. Probably the latter. Those are some serious daydreams. Maksim started at her in awe. He was her damn dance partner, but not anymore. Spoiler – Kirstie was voted off DWTS All Stars earlier this week. See ya!

These dudes are totally in love with Kirstie too, right?

Kirstie Alley is delusional. She recently called John Travolta “the love of her life” and insisted that he’s not gay, despite the fact that she was married to someone else at the time she supposedly fell for Travolta, and never actually dated or slept with him, by her own admission. She also claimed, in an interview with ET, that Patrick Swayze was “in love” with her in 1987 when they were working together, again when she was married and he was married to someone else, also despite the fact that nothing physical ever happened between them. In fact, Patrick turned Kristie down. In her brainwashed mind, that’s not evidence that he didn’t want anything to do with her, they still had this great non-physical love affair. ET has released another segment from Kirstie’s interview, (a clip is above) in which she goes into more detail about her non-affair with Patrick. Kristie admitted that Swayze rejected her, but went on to strongly insinuate that Patrick was still fooling around behind his then-wife Lisa Niemi’s back. Oh no she didn’t!

“It was just too much of an attraction.

“I will say that at that time Patrick was drinking a lot, Patrick’s been very public about that.”

In Kirstie’s new book, The Art of Men, the 61-year-old actress claims that after a night of dirty dancing and partying, she finally made her move on Patrick, but was ceremoniously rejected.

“I want to make love with you. I just don’t care anymore, let’s just do it,” she remembers telling her hunky co-star in the heat of the moment.

Ever the gentleman, Patrick denied her proposition.

“No. Come on, you’re drunk,” he said. “Kirstie, you don’t really want to do it. You’re not that kind of girl.”

While the star would later speak at Patrick’s funeral in 2009, Kirstie reveals she still isn’t sure his wife of 34 years, Lisa Niemi, ever caught wind of their on-set attraction.

“I have no idea if Lisa knows anything about Patrick and I… I was probably the least of Lisa’s problems with Patrick.”

[From ET Online]

So she still thinks there was enough going on that Patrick’s wife should have known about it, and that there was a “Patrick and I.” She admits that Patrick was wasted at the time she propositioned him, and that he still turned her down cold, but somehow she thinks she was hiding something from Patrick’s wife. What is going on with this woman? You don’t smear a beloved dead guy’s memory like that. Maybe if Patrick wasn’t such a nice guy, she would have received the message through her thick skull that he didn’t want anything to do with her. It’s been 27 years for Xenu’s sake and she still doesn’t get it!

CB covered a great deal of Kirstie Alley’s new media blitz the other day, wisely focusing on Kirstie’s totally delusional statements about propositioning Patrick Swayze, being turned down by Swayze, and how that somehow meant that he was in love with her. CB also mentioned Kirstie’s new interview with Barbara Walters, and how they ended up discussing John Travolta. Kirstie and John are tight – they’ve been tight for decades. They both roll with Xenu! Anyway, in the early excerpts from the interview, Kirstie said that Travolta is “the greatest love of her life” (minus Xenu) and “It took everything that I had, inside, outside, whatever, to not run off and marry John. And be with John for the rest of my life.” She was referring to the time period in and around 1991, when she was married and John wasn’t. What we hadn’t heard before now was that Barbara Walters actually asked the all-important questions about Travolta’s sexuality. I would love it if Barbara’s question was, “So, does he like c—k or what?” As you can imagine, Kirstie protected her great love’s sexuality:

Kirstie Alley wants to set the record straight about John Travolta’s sexuality.

Sitting down with Barbara Walters in an upcoming 20/20 interview, the actress, 61, dispels long-running talk that her close friend and fellow Scientologist is gay. (Married to Kelly Preston for over 20 years, the Savages actor, 58, has been exonerated in several sexual harassment cases leveled against him by male masseurs and hotel employees.)

“I know John with all my heart and soul; he’s not gay,” Alley tells Walters of her Look Who’s Talking costar.

“I think in some weird way, in Hollywood, if someone gets big enough and famous enough, and they’re not out doing drugs and they’re not womanizing, what do you say about them?” she mused.

Indeed, Alley reveals to Walters that she had to fight her own romantic feelings for Travolta while she was still married to Parker Stevenson; she and the actor divorced in 1997 after 14 years together.

Calling Travolta the “greatest love of my life,” Alley claims “it took everything I had inside, outside, whatever, to not run off and marry John and be with John for the rest of my life . . .I feel like when you marry someone, you’re supposed to work hard at it and you’re supposed to make it work.”

These details follow another forbidden love scenario that came out earlier this week: Back in 1985, Alley fell for another costar, the late Patrick Swayze, as they filmed the TV movie North and South.

“Both of us were married,” Alley says, clarifying that the pair did not technically “have an affair,” but indeed fell in love.

“But again, I think what we did was worse,” she explains of Swayze, who was married to wife Lisa Niemi up until his 2009 death. “Because I think when you fall in love with someone when you’re married, you jeopardize your own marriage and their marriage. It’s doubly bad.”

[From Us Weekly]

I was going to joke about it, but really, Kirstie didn’t leave a lot of room in there to parse. It’s just a flat-out denial wrapped in a personal testimonial. She’s saying she knows his heterosexual soul on a cosmic level and we only call him gay because he’s super-famous and super-clean. Clean except for all of the masseurs he quietly bones. ALLEGEDLY!

But really, I think we should heavily discount everything Kirstie says about the 1980s and early 1990s because, as it turns out, she was a raging cokehead who was always on the verge of overdosing. But she’s totally fine now, people. Because Xenu healed her.

Kirstie Alley has opened up about her past cocaine habit that was so intense she feared it would kill her. Alley, who is promoting her new book The Art of Men (I Prefer Mine al Dente), admitted that she did “enough cocaine to kill several people.”

The 61-year-old says: “I thought I was going to overdose almost every time… There was about a year’s span that I did cocaine that I was doing it – you could say – more occasionally, on the weekend. Then my weekend became a three-day weekend, then it became four, then it became five.

“But I would do so much at a time that I would snort the coke and then I would sit there, I would take my pulse [thinking]: ‘I’m dying, I’m dying, I’m dying.’ Who would keep doing it? But it’s such a weird, mind-trippy addiction.”

Alley credits the controversial religion Scientology with saving her from the grips of addiction.

She says: “A friend of mine sent me this book. Most of my friends were drug addicts so they didn’t send me books. But one of my friends who wasn’t, was a Scientologist and she sent me Dianetics [by L. Ron Hubbard]. Somehow I got through it and I thought: ‘This is either the world’s biggest scam or this is how I’m going to get rid of this hideous compulsion that I have.’”

[From Radar]

‘This is either the world’s biggest scam or this is how I’m going to get rid of this hideous compulsion that I have’. OR BOTH. It’s not an either/or proposition. You too can quit drugs when you’re chained up in David Miscavige’s work-camp yacht AND it can still be the world’s biggest scam.

Kirstie talks about Patrick Swayze at 1:15

Kirstie Alley is promoting her new memoir, The Art of Men [I Prefer Mine al Dente], which is out today. In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Kirstie reveals one of the bombshells in her book – that she was “in love” with Patrick Swayze when they were both married to other people and working on a TV movie together, “North and South,” in 1985. Kirstie would have been 34 at the time, and Swayze was 33. While she insists they did not have an “affair,” she admits that they were emotionally involved, adding “I think what we did was worse.” In Kristie’s mind, the fact that Patrick turned her down didn’t mean he wasn’t into her at all. This excerpt, from ET, leaves out the detail that Kirstie “propositioned Patrick one night, but he turned her away.”

Kirstie Alley reveals to ET’s Chris Jacobs intimate details about what she says was a powerful attraction and hidden relationship with her North and South co-star, Patrick Swayze. Although both stars were married during filming of the mini-series, Alley tells Jacobs when she first saw Swayze, they had an intense attraction and she tried to avoid “going down that road,” but they ultimately fell in love.

“Both of us were married. We did not have an affair. But again, I think what I did was worse. Because I think when you fall in love with someone when you’re married, you jeopardize your own marriage and their marriage. It’s doubly bad,” said Alley.

Alley goes on to say that although she’s friends with Patrick’s wife, Lisa Niemi, who asked Alley to speak at Swayze’s funeral, she is uncertain if Lisa is aware of their relationship.

[From ET Online]

Kirstie also told ET that “after Patrick, I made a decision that I was not ever going to involve myself with anyone married.” Here’s the thing, Kirstie was on her second marriage at the time of her affair/flirtation with Patrick Swayze. She was also 34, more than old enough to know better, and of course she would have had a relationship with him, but Patrick turned her down! Still he was “in love” with her. Hopefully Patrick’s widow, Lisa Niemi, realizes that her late husband didn’t go there and that Kirstie is deluded.

In another interview, with Barbara Walters, Kirstie called John Travolta the “greatest love of my life” and claimed that while they were filming Look Who’s Talking, in 1989, “It took everything that I had, inside, outside, whatever, to not run off and marry John. And be with John for the rest of my life.” John didn’t marry Kelly Preston until 1991, but Kirstie was married at that time. She said she didn’t hook up with Travolta because “I feel like when you marry someone you’re supposed to work hard at it, and you’re supposed to make it work.” So she avoided married men after she learned from her experience getting rejected by Patrick Swayze, but it didn’t seem to matter that she was married. She’s calling some guy the “love of her life” who was only her buddy and co-star and likely wasn’t interested in her at all, considering that she’s a woman. She thinks men are much more into her than they are. It’s possible she’s full of it though, and is just name-dropping in order to promote her book. Given that she’s talking about a beloved departed actor, that scenario would be more despicable than her “secret relationship” claims which fall flat.

When the Tom Cruise-Katie Holmes story was in its full swing, CB and I had a few private debates about the Church of Scientology and about cults in general. My take was always that the people who join Scientology (or any given cult) as an adult really aren’t that sympathetic. It sounds harsh, I know, but I always come down to: “They had a choice. Maybe they didn’t have a choice once they were all the way in, but at the beginning, they always had a choice.” CB definitely has more sympathy for those people who get caught up in a cult, and she knows a lot about how CoS brainwashes and “converts” people into their cult, and how they KEEP people in their cult. She has made many valid points, especially when CB talks about how CoS preys on “weak” people. So why am I discussing this in a Sparkles post? Because he’s having a really terrible few weeks (and what will turn out to be an awful year). And because, according to the Enquirer, the Church of Scientology is trying to recruit him in his hour of desperation:

The Church of Scientology has set its sights on Robert Pattinson to take over the role as the organizations’s top celebrity after Tom Cruise’s quickie divorce from Katie Holmes caused major embarrassment for the controversial religion, say sources.

And insiders believe that Kirstie Alley, a neighbor and friend of Pattinson, is spearheading the efforts to lure him into the fold, after an SUV registered to Alley was spotted leaving his property. As eyewitness told The Enquirer that a white Lexus Hybrid SUV belonging to Kirstie entered Pattinson’s property on July 25 – the same day he reportedly broke up with Kristen Stewart after she was caught cheating with Rupert Sanders. When the Lexus left at 4:30 pm, the vehicle went directly to Scientology’s Celebrity Center in Hollywood.

“My first thought was that it was really unusual,” the eyewitness noted. “I didn’t get a good look at the driver except that I noticed that the person had a lot of hair – so it was probably female.”

“The Church of Scientology would love to have Rob in the fold,” says Amy Scobee, formerly a high-ranking Scientologist, “He’s the ideal candidate for Scientology. The Church believes that everyone has a situation they can help them with, and they prey on people in their weak moments. Since he’s going through a bad breakup, it would be perfect timing for them to step in and ‘help’. And if Kirstie’s a friend and neighbor, he might listen to her.”

[From The Enquirer, print edition]

Do I think Rob would ever become a Scientologist? Not really. Yes, he’s emotionally devastated and psychologically “weak” right now… but I can’t see him turning to Xenu in his hour of need. More likely he’s turning to booze and cigarettes and man-tears. And when those tears dry, he will still not roll with Xenu. I’ve read Rob’s interviews over the years – he’s not a brain surgeon or anything, but he’s a smart kid, and he would see through the CoS crap pretty quickly, I think. But it’s interesting that CoS could be trying to recruit him. CoS has been having a worse year than Robert – John Travolta is now associated with “sexually assaulting masseurs” and Tom Cruise is now associated with “being such a nutcase that his innocent, pure wife had to leave him suddenly and publicly.” Poor David Miscavige. He really, really wanted this one, didn’t he? David must like ‘em really pretty and sparkly.

On Friday, when I wasn’t paying attention since I was already focused on the weekend, the cast of “Dancing with The Stars: All Stars” was announced. They’re recycling past competitors for the first time, and are including winnners, runner-ups, and attention-getters like Bristol Palin, Pamela Anderson and Kirstie Alley. The full list is here, and it’s not just the people we gossip about, they’re also featuring truly strong dancers, with half of the 12 competitors having won their respective seasons. One of the past contestants who won’t be featured because a) she can’t dance, b) she’s insufferable and most importantaly c) the public no longer cares about her, is Kate Gosselin. EW has an amusing insider story about how Kate wanted back on the show and was denied. (She can always keep trying to sell that ridiculous reality show concept in which she somehow finds a pool of men desperate and famewhorish enough to date her.)

EW also has details of the press conference announcing the casting, during which Bristol Palin got snippy and defensive, as is typical for her:

Just like old times, eh Bristol Palin?

The daughter of ex-Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin was back on the hotseat Friday to answer questions about why she — and 11 other celebrities — decided to make a return visit to Dancing with the Stars this fall. Though Drew Lachey and Pamela Anderson managed to get a few words in edgewise, Palin received most of the questions from members of the media, who repeatedly tried to press the young mom about why she wanted to do another reality show.

By the end of the press conference, a rather defensive Palin deflected a question about the upside of getting lots of publicity by repeating her mantra “God provides opportunities like this for me” and by saying “it’s a positive, active show. It’s going to be awesome. Do I like to provide for my son? Yes, I do.”
Asked why she’d return to a show that generated so much negative publicity for her the first time around, Palin said, “the press is going to talk to me no matter what I do. I might as well have fun.”

Apparently, it wasn’t a hard sell to get the eldest daughter of the former Vice Presidential candidate to return to the ballroom. One insider on the show say it was an “easy sell” to get her back in sequins — just like it was the 11 other celebrities who will participate in the show’s first all-star edition beginning Sept. 24. (One star who didn’t make the cut was Kate Gosselin, who wanted to return but apparently the producers didn’t think her current “storyline” was that interesting. Snap!). Then again, DWTS would have been foolish not to approach Palin, as her season generated huge ratings for ABC.

At one uncomfortable point Friday, the conversation turned to Palin’s politics and how she feels about gays. “I love ‘em!” shouted Anderson, in one of the few chances she got to talk during the entire panel.

“I like gays,” Palin said. “I’m not a homophobic. Just because I’m for traditional marriage … I don’t hate anybody. People will make up things about me. I’m going to go dance and have fun. It’s not about politics, it’s not about traditional marriage. It’s about dancing. That’s all I have to say about it.”

[From EW.com]

I don’t understand the “God provides opportunities” thing coming from Bristol. If He gives opportunities, doesn’t He also put adversity in your path and enemies and all that, and aren’t you supposed to be gracious about it, since it’s all part of his plan or something? I don’t really see that from Bristol, but whatever. God gives her opportunities since she’s special, everything bad that happens comes from haters fueled by the liberal media. The journalists were focusing on her at the press conference because they knew how easy it would be to rile her up and get some good quotes.

To celebrate the fact that she’s back on the show, Pamela Anderson went out Friday night and got wasted. Since that’s what you do when you have hep c. I hope she was drunk when she applied that navy blue sparkly raccoon eyeshadow and teased her hair up like that.

Kirstie Alley just tweeted a lot. We’re about to see her lose the weight she gained back after DWTS ended last time. And she’ll claim she did it with her magic L. Ron juice and that she was a size 4 the whole time.

I’ll watch a couple of these shows just to see these women compete again, but more than that I’ll talk about it. That seems to be what they’re aiming for by casting Bristol and company.

Pamela Anderson is shown on 6-27-12 outside Boa Steakhouse. I have no idea who that guy is wearing the caftan that she’s holding hands with.
