Celebs Out & About
It’s funny to me that when Christina Milian dyed her locks blond, all the male celebrities had something negative and catty to say about her. But now that Cassie has shaved her wig and looks like Mad Max Beyond the Thunderdome, you don’t hear a peep from anybody. I guess they don’t want none from Sean Combs, who, by the way will be hosting Akon’s celebrity-studded birthday bash on Sunday night (4/19) at the Velvet Room. Please get there early so you won’t be stranded in the parking lot with the other stragglers.

Thousands turn out for Atlanta tea party
Fed up Atlantans turned out by the thousands for an organized rally in downtown Atlanta tonight to protest wild spending by the Obama administration and Congress.
The Atlanta Tea Party which was planned for 3 hours was scaled back an hour and will now end at 9 pm. Still, an estimated two thousand people clogged downtown in cars and on foot snarling traffic around the state Capitol building.
Fox News host Sean Hannity is broadcasting his Sean Hannity Show live from a stage at the Capitol building beginning at 7 pm. But Fox will not use the crowds as a backdrop for Hannity’s set fearing clashes between Obama supporters (read: blacks) and frustrated tax payers.
UPDATE:
Crowd estimated at 15,000 to 20,000 in downtown Atlanta!!

Please don’t forget to attend a tea party in your area today
Hopefully most of you are aware of the massive anti-tax and anti-bailout “tea parties” planned for today all over America. The biggest tea parties will take place in Atlanta, New York and D.C. Please attend a tea party in your area and send a message to your legislators, Congress and to the Obama administration that you are tired of being over-taxed to pay for their overspending.
Congress just approved over $3 billion in wasteful spending for Obama. Don’t sit on your hands and let others do the hard work for you while you reap the benefits. Imagine the oppression we would still be living under if our grandparents didn’t get out there and march during the civil rights era.
March for your rights NOW to avoid paying for Obama’s overspending later on. Your children and their children will thank you!

Cover Parade
NBA star Kevin Garnett glistens with artificial sweat straight out of a spray bottle on the cover of Men’s Fitness magazine. Wouldn’t you love to ride KG hard and put him up wet at night like a prized thoroughbred? In this issue, KG talks about staying fit by running, lifting weights and of course playing basketball.
“People ask me all the time, ‘Do you love running on the beach, on the sand?’ Nah, but I do love getting better.”
“I remember when I first started running on sand, it was so hard on me. So hard on my back and ankles, I knew I was getting stronger when I would do the workouts and wouldn’t be as tired.”
Men’s Fitness is on stands April 20.
Poor Janet Jackson is doing her fat suit act again. By now you know the routine: Janet feels a little let down over a lack of attention from the media, and from her man JD, who is busy in the studio with Usher in Atlanta. So she dons a fat suit, calls up the local paparazzi agency and goes to the nearest strip mall to stage paparazzi shots for some attention. This act only fools the few tardy stragglers who haven’t caught on yet.
When it comes to shameful publicity stunts, this cover says it all. Babies are always a blessing. But having babies just to bring attention to yourself is lame. Thankfully, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt don’t farm their children off on nannies or family members. What’s seven kids when you have enough loot to buy a small country?
Photo of the Day: The 3 Somali pirates who swim with the fishes
Good Morning America aired this exclusive photo of the 3 Somali pirates who were executed by Navy SEAL snipers during a daring rescue of an American ship captain.
The barefoot pirates are pictured holding automatic weapons on the deck of the Maersk container ship they had just hijacked. A Maersk crew member snapped the photo last week just after the pirates gained control of the ship.
The sea thugs were killed by Navy SEAL snipers on Sunday after they held Capt. Richard Pillips captive for 5-days in a lifeboat.
A fourth Somali pirate, a teenager, is now in U.S. custody and will be brought to the U.S. to face trial.

Is Halle Berry Back On Crack?
Is actress Halle Berry back on crack or is she on a crash diet? Halle was spotted by the paps at her daughter Nahla’s pediatrician office in Beverly Hills yesterday. Even the lip gloss Halle wore did nothing for her gaunt appearance. Maybe she should get a check up herself.
