Kardashian Family: The Backlash of Being Overexposed
December 23, 2011
There are some perks to being a Kardashian: money, lifetime supply of Midori and QuickTrim shakes, big asses, more money...etc...However, this family is quickly becoming one of the most overexposed families on television, heck, not just on television, ever!

Becoming one of the most famous-for-being famous families ever, the Kardashians are starting to gain a lot of haters. Whether they are disliked for planning a $10 million beauty pageant TV Wedding, or getting divorced 72 days later, or whoring out every aspect of their life, The Kardashians are becoming the most bashed family this year.

The most notable Kardashian bashing came from actor Daniel Craig who recently said, "Look at the Kardashians, they're worth millions....You see that and you think, 'What, you mean all I have to do is behave like a f-cking idiot on television and then you'll pay me millions?'"

In honor of rock music’s most famous face, we’re counting down the many loves of Mick Jagger.

Sources say Jagger cheated on his wife with Angelina. Years later, in 2003, the two were seen going back to Jagger’s hotel room in Bangkok. Spokesmen for both Jagger and Jolie declined to comment. But it sounds about right...

Janice Dickinson Taken Away in an Ambulance
June 16, 2009
I'm A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here is a dangerous show to be on! Janice Dickinson was rushed off the set of the show in an ambulance this weekend, making her the second contestant to fall ill on the show.

Janice was taken away in an ambulance, but was not taken to the hospital. A source tells Us Weekly, "She is not in the hospital. It's fair to say she was taken by ambulance this weekend from camp to an on-site medical facility for treatment for an undisclosed condition."

Janice had been complaining of hunger and bronchitis while on the show. Her actual illness will be revealed on tonight’s episode. The source added, "Her fate is decided tonight. Either she quits, or she might be too sick to go on, or she's taken off -- or she may go back to camp."

We can’t imagine Janice Dickinson quitting! Plus, she could probably use the money! We wish her a full recovery! That reality show is no walk in the park!
Janice Dickinson To Get Another Show
May 23, 2008
Janice Dickinson is in talks to get another show. And this time, it's a talk show! Do we really need to hear that woman talk more???

Um, someone tell Janice there's already a talk show host trying to do that and failing miserably at….Tyra! We don't need anymore!
Janice Dickinson Knows The Value Of A High School Diploma
May 8, 2008
Janice Dickinson is requiring that all the model hopefuls for her reality show bring their high school diplomas, because she refuses to work with inexperienced kids. Yeah, because everyone just has their high school certificate hanging around.

She says she's had enough of bony-assed models like Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell, and wants to see a change in the industry.

Dickinson says, "Kate Moss wasn't all that. She was this bony*ssed skinny 14 year old when I met her. Naomi Campbell was a 12-year-old little girl. I have a 14 year old myself and I would never turn her out in the modeling industry today. On The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency I make sure they give me their high school graduation certificate and then they can go on."

She also lashes out at uber diva Naomi Campbell, saying, "The model who has been in the most trouble has been Miss Naomi Campbell, with her anger issues. I was right there when her mother just turned her out when she was 12. You don't let a little girl out in the world at 12 and 13 because they simply don't know anything. It's the same thing with Kate Moss - always having problems with illicit devices; a pure case of being turned out in an industry far too soon. Tyra Banks and Cindy Crawford have made it because they graduated high school and they entered the field with a parent around them."

Yeah, Janice is such a great parent figure.
Janice Dickinson Does Roids

Did I miss the memo about Steroids being a trend? Apparently athletes aren't the only ones shooting up, supermodels do it too. Ok, not really, but Janice Dickinson did. So, she's obviously gotten a ton of work done to make her look like the Joker, but now she's saying she was a roid rager as well. And Sly Stallone is to blame. Nice timing, right before Rambo returns!

Dickinson went on Red Eye and said, "He juiced me. I'd wake up and my arm was as big as Popeye - steroids, testosterone, all that stuff that people say [mimicking Stallone voice], 'Hey, it's not that good 'cause you get really big, you know what I mean?' "

Sly simply said, "Bitch is lying."

WTF is wrong with her?! Doesn't she understand that using steroids isn't cool right now? Coke is even on its way out! Go back to the 90's!
Janice Dickinson Is A 900-Year Old Dinosaur
December 13, 2007

It’s no secret that Janice Dickinson has had some…well a lot of work done. She doesn’t hide it and even admits that she is actually addicted to plastic surgery. She says, "Believe me, I'm a 900-year-old dinosaur and without 14 inches of make-up and 32 pounds of fake weave I wouldn't look the way I do. I want to be the best-looking corpse there is."

"I'm honest about it; I haven't got a problem with it. I borrow bits from everyone. Every six months I fly to Dallas to get Botox and I also get collagen injections. I'm addicted to cosmetic surgery."

I guess it's nice that she's honest about being a 900-year old plastic dinosaur, but she REALLY needs to get some help about her addiction. She's on the verge of looking like "Cat Woman."
