Dennis Rodman Macks On Sandra, Jesse’s Mistress Tweets “Suck It!!”

Dennis Rodman & Jesse James

The Sandra Bullock/Jesse James drama is moving from tragic to ridiculous in record speed. While most celebs—including the heartbroken Oscar winner herself—are staying mum on the subject, Dennis Rodman is not your average celebrity. Asked by InTouch Weekly how he feels about the scandal, the Sober House star—who beefed with James on Celebrity Apprentice last year—was sympathetic…to a point. “With all I’ve been through with marriage, divorce and girlfriends, I’m the wrong guy to ask…I happen to like Jesse and hope this works out for them.” Fair enough. “However, should it not, with all her success and money, I’d be happy to take Sandra Bullock out for the time of her life.” While that’s a kind and generous offer, Dennis, we’re guessing she’s not looking for another tattooed badass reality star to spend her cash right now.

Tattoo model Michelle “Bombshell” McGee might be up for a night on the town, though, considering how unapologetic she’s been about cutting Sandra’s Oscar afterglow short. The fetish/tattoo model recently revived her Twitter with a succinct “suck it!!” (since deleted) followed by “thanks for all the support.” Though she tried to change the subject (”I really want some Ben and Jerrys half baked ice cream.. Yummy!!”), she’s since suggested we all “go drink some haterade” because, as she expressed via acronym, she does not give a f— (”IDGAF!”—also deleted). Don’t worry, Michelle, it won’t believe until no one else gives a f— either.

Sidibe’s Mom Responds To Howard Stern’s Insults

gs-200xGabourey Sidibe’s mom tells Howard Stern he’s out of line.

A media war has ensued between Howard Stern and lovers of Oscar-nominated Precious star Gabourey Sidibe. Last week Stern made nasty jibes about Sidibe’s weight and said that she’ll never work again. Now Sidibe’s mom is speaking out. (Just like my mom always says, you can mess with the mama, but never mess with her babies.)

Did Kate Gosselin Scare Johnny Weir Off Dancing?

Kate Gosselin & Johnny Weir

Looks like Jon Gosselin isn’t the only Octoparent earning a d-word these days. Page Six rang the “diva” alarm on Kate Gosselin this morning, saying the star wants to be “Queen Bee” on the set of Dancing With The Stars. “Kate doesn’t want anything to do with other contestants…While there’s a lot of camaraderie among the crew and other stars including Pamela Anderson, Kate has set herself apart.” To be fair, Kate’s been on reality TV a long time—it’s only right she finally get to say she’s not there to make friends.

That said, we’re bummed to hear her presence may have inspired Johnny Weir to decline joining this season’s cast. The flamboyant skater already went on record with his disdain for KaGo after a drama-filled charity event last September. “She didn’t look at anybody…Kate Gosselin was playing the diva act,” he told E!, later calling her “a terror.” “I was disappointed to meet her and I was so disappointed she was involved in the show. It was such a waste.” Will bad karma make her an early exit once the season starts next week?

Howard Stern Mocks “Enormous” Gabourey Sidibe

Howard Stern found the loveliest way to say Gabourey Sidibe should have won Best Actress for Precious on his radio show 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. She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?” Sidibe has already scored roles on Showtime’s The C Word and the indie drama Yelling To The Sky, but Howard was too busy complaining about Oprah Winfrey’s ego-boosting to check IMDb. “Oprah’s another liar, a filthy liar. She’s telling an enormous woman the size of a planet that she’s going to have a career.” Considering the lack of precedent for Oprah’s success, is she really that far off base? Let us know in our poll if you think Howard has a point about Sidibe’s chances to maintain stardom, or if he’s just a simple-minded jerk…or both.

Sting And Simon Cowell: The Hatred Is Mutual

59843405

We love that in the UK,  no one creates a false sense of friendship just for the sake of good PR. In the States, no one wants to say something bad about someone else (unless you’re a reality star, in which case, that’s the only thing you’ll say about anyone). Not so in the case of Simon Cowell and Sting. Last fall, Sting made some very pointed comments about Cowell’s show The X Factor, the reality competition he’s importing to  the U.S. once he leaves American Idol. Sting said of the program “The X Factor is a preposterous show and you have judges who have no recognizable talent apart from self-promotion, advising them (contestants) what to wear and how to look. It is appalling.” Zing, Sting!

Of course, Cowell is not one to take criticism lightly, being a master of it himself. In an interview with his pal and fellow talent judge Piers Morgan this weekend, Cowell rebutted “First of all, anybody who at the age of 60 calls himself Sting is an idiot.” Not the most mature way to begin his argument, but you didn’t think he’d stop there, did you? “I find those kind of people… who come from quite humble beginnings and they’re (now) living in these stately homes professing to know everything about everything in the world, and what the contestants may or may not feel… They can say that because they’ve got everything they want in their lives, but what they’re really saying is anybody else who needs a shot shouldn’t be allowed to do it.”  The entire argument seems silly because we wouldn’t want to take advice from the style-challenged Cowell, nor do we care what super-rich Sting watches on the TV in his cold, musty castle. So you see, you’re both right.   [Photos: Getty Images]

Music By Prudence Oscar Fight: Doc Lady Pulls A Kanye

One of the craziest moments of last night’s Oscar ceremony was when Music By Prudence director Roger Ross Williams was cut off by producer Elinor Burkett in the middle of his emotional acceptance speech for Best Documentary Short—not that hardly anyone in the audience at home knew who these people were at the time of her “Kanye moment.” Burkett, a Salon contributor, gave her side of the story to the webmag:

What happened was the director and I had a bad difference over the direction of the film that resulted in a lawsuit that has settled amicably out of court. But there have been all these events around the Oscars, and I wasn’t invited to any of them. And he’s not speaking to me. So we weren’t even able to discuss ahead of the time who would be the one person allowed to speak if we won. And then, as I’m sure you saw, when we won, he raced up there to accept the award. And his mother took her cane and blocked me. So I couldn’t get up there very fast…I felt my role in this has been denigrated again and again, and it wasn’t going to happen this time.

According to Williams, Burkett’s determination to receive recognition is ironic, considering she removed herself from the project more than a year ago (Burkett felt the film should focus on an entire band of disabled Zimbabwean children, not just Prudence). “The academy is very clear that only one person can speak,” he told Salon. “I own the film. She has no claim whatsoever. She has nothing to do with the movie. She just ambushed me.” And as for his mom blocking Burkett with her cane, “My mother got up to hug me. And my mother is 87 years old. She was excited.” Congratulations, Elinor! You definitely got our attention—for better or worse.

Courtney Love/Lily Allen Twitter Feud Gets Ugly With Pics, Drug Accusations

Lily Allen & Courtney Love

God bless Twitter. When Axl Rose and Kurt Cobain faced off at the MTV Music Awards almost twenty years ago, the stars were left to stew in their juices following the night’s feud. But following a public shouting match at last week’s NME Awards, Lily Allen is free to post grotesque twitpics of Courtney Love at Milan Fashion Week, while Love responds with, well…she can speak for herself.

oh @lilyroseallen tweeted that pic? thats just baby brat nonsense we are NOT having a” FUED” WOULDNT DEIGN TO post a pic of her thighs…but im not the one on gak every night dear, you are, and im not the one who uses the word “relevant” to reassure meselfALWAYS…your really a brat, is there anyone who you havent started a meaningless strop with? the night you did all the blow on earth…the night you home invaded me did all the blow ive ever seen in my home wouldnt leave and blamed ME for yr s— show?thighs?…But then again i dont pick fights with insanely deluded irrevelant friendless unatractive children who noone i know even close to likes.

Love then posted several unflattering pics of Allen circa 2008 (Love digs deep!), retweeted some supporters, called the 24-year-old singer a “feral woofy dog,” and said Allen doesn’t have an exclusive deal with Chanel—Love’s earlier accusation that kicked off this mess—because she’s “too plump” (that’s right, two critically hailed artists are having fight online over which one is ugly and which one is fat). Allen has yet to respond to Love’s unending-as-of-our-posting stream of bile (”whata sad baby, retire already so you can stop picking fights with everyone for no reason, ps tip, nme awards not venue to dress filmstar”) but we’re sure it’s only a matter of time.

Gary Coleman Swears At Guest, Storms Off The Insider

Well, if this isn’t just the saddest thing. An interview with Gary Coleman aired on The Insider last night, in which the former child star threw a tantrum and bolted the set after lawyer Lisa Bloom grilled him on his recent spousal abuse arrest (he pleaded guilty earlier this month). “You can go f— yourself! You can go f— yourself!” he shouted after Bloom’s repeated demands that he acknowledge his wife’s charges. “I don’t know you, I don’t care about you and your life doesn’t matter to me! So if you drown tonight or get hit by a bus tonight, I’m not gonna care because she’s pushing my buttons and I don’t like her now and the next thing I’m going to do is…leave! So f— all of you!”

If that wasn’t awkward enough, the hosts brought author/psychologist Charlie Sophy to give his reaction. While admitting Bloom was “provoking” Coleman (who had already said there was “no abuse” in his house), Sophy noted “he was explosive, he tries to hold it together and he blows. You’re lucky he didn’t hit somebody here…really!” Uh…really? The 4′7″ actor was going to start handing out beatdowns on air? “What I saw there needs medicine,” he continued, dismissing commentator Niecy Nash’s suggestion of therapy. Unfortunately, the long-awaited referendum allowing TV psychologists to force medication on miserable has-beens has yet to be passed into law.

Hulk Hogan Beaten And Bloodied At Press Conference

Hulk Hogan

Hulk Hogan just gave Australia a taste of the brutality they can expect at his upcoming Hulkamania wrestling event in Sydney. The reality star was promoting the show at a press conference when long-time rival Ric Flair showed up to mock the Hulk’s drama with ex-wife Linda. When Hulk tried to walk away, Flair pummeled him with his belt and fist, leaving Brooke Hogan’s dad a bloody mess. You could be forgiven for being skeptical, but TMZ swears it was real, and Aussie news shows, less familiar with the nature of pro wrestling, aren’t sure what to think. Check out the gallery and decide for yourself.

Angelina Jolie And Father Make Up?

The six Jolie-Pitt children need to make room for more at that crowded dinner table, grandaddy Jon Voight is back in the picture. “We’re in touch, but not regularly,” Jon says of his daughter Angelina Jolie, from whom he has been estranged for seven years, after spilling the beans about her son Maddox’s adoption. “We love each other and that’s the most important thing,” he says.

In February, he reportedly met with the humanitarian mother of six at the urging of her babydaddy Brad Pitt. “Brad has been supportive - a key factor in her reaching out,” a source says.  Well sure he’s supportive: he can’t wait to have somebody else around to help out with all those Jolie-Pitts once they become teenagers!
