Twitter FAIL: Is Sarah Palin a Closet Racist?
It would seem so after the former Alaska governor rushed to defend talk radio antagonist Dr. Laura, who announced she’s leaving her long-running radio show, presumably so she can insult an entire race of people with impunity whenever she feels like it.
Dr. Laura Schlessinger stirred up controversy when she repeatedly uttered the N-word to a black caller during her radio show on August 10. She later apologized, but Palin stoked the fires of controversy once again when she took to her Twitter page and tweeted:
“Dr. Laura: don’t retreat: reload! (Steps aside because her first amendment rights ceased to exist thanks to activists trying to silence. Isn’t American, not fair)”
It’s obvious that Palin’s cloudy judgment confuses ignorance and racial insensitivity with Dr. Laura’s inalienable rights to freedom of expression.
“Does anyone seriously believe that Dr. Laura Schlessinger is a racist?” Palin asked in a post on her Facebook page. “Anyone, I mean, who isn’t already accusing all conservatives, Republicans, Tea Party Americans, etc., etc., etc. of being racists?”
Dr. Laura and Sarah Palin prove that even high profile rednecks often blur the boundaries of human decency.
Sneak Preview: Black Swan starring Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis
The most anticipated movie of the year is Fox Searchlight Pictures’ Black Swan, an artsy movie lensed in 16mm film noir style that explores the dark side of ballet’s intense competition between two of a ballet company’s principal dancers.
Natalie Portman (Star Wars) plays the veteran dancer, Nina, an emotionally troubled loner who is slowly descending into madness.
Mila Kunis (Book of Eli) plays Lily, the cocky, self-assured dancer who is competing with Nina for the lead role in the classic production, Swan Lake — or is she?
In the opening scene of the movie’s trailer, Nina says:
“I had the craziest dream last night… about a girl who’s turned into a swan. But her prince falls for the wrong girl… and she kills herself”
And that, in a nutshell, is the theme of Black Swan, a psychological thriller with ballerina protagonists.
The love scene between Nina and Lilly is garnering a lot of press. But the concept of a chick turning into a swan — à la Jeff Goldblum in The Fly — is what’s most intriguing about Black Swan.
In the film’s trailer, Nina repeatedly scratches herself leaving her back covered in long, jagged scars. There is one intense scene where her mother (played by the excellent Barbara Hershey) frantically clips Nina’s nails down to the nubs.
The last scene in the trailer shows Nina plucking a black feather out of her back. The whites of her eyes glow a fiery red… just like a black swan!
Does Nina eventually turn into a black swan? I read the script online, so I know the answer, but I won’t spoil it for you.

Celebs Out & About: Angela Simmons, Terry Crews, Justin Combs, Misa Hylton
Entrepreneurs Vanessa Simmons, left, and her sister Angela Simmons attended the Pastry Box of Chocolates launch party at CityCenter in Las Vegas yesterday. Loyal reader LaTomya wrote in to rave about Angela’s shoes:
Hi Sandra, Can you put up a post on Angela Simmons Light Up Jimmy Choo shoes. She wore them in Vegas for the Pastry line promotion party. They are sooooo HOT!!!!
The cast of The Expendables, L-R: actors Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Dolph Lundgren and Terry Crews attended the ringing of the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street in NYC today. There is something so unsexy (not to mention suspect) about a male who constantly takes off his shirt to flex his muscles while in the company of other alpha males. Does your man do this?
Celebs Out & About: Brandy and Kelly Rowland’s Public Lovefest
R&B stars Kelly Rowland, left, and Brandy leave (you guessed it!) Katsuya restaurant hand-in-hand last night. We had no idea the two former superstars were the best of friends. I mean they seem really, really close! In one pic I thought they were about to kiss.
Maybe Kelly is going to appear in Brandy and Ray J’s realtiy TV show next season.
More public intimacy than you can stand after the break!
Celeb Style: T.I., Jay Z, LaLa Vazquez, Pharrell Williams
From Upscale Hype:
We all know celebs love their Louis Vuitton and Gucci, so I wasn’t surprised to see rapper T.I. over in NYC rocking a pair of Louis Vuitton Brooklyn sneakers ($560) along with a classic Gucci interlocking G belt ($225), which was tucked underneath his purple v-neck sweater. The Brooklyn sneaker made its debut as part of the Summer 2010 collection, and features tw0 tone calfskin leather, large eyelets and a rubber sole.
Montana Fishburne: “I’m Not Doing Sh*t To Him, But Fu*king and Having My Career”
D-list porn star Montana Fishburne certainly knows how to keep the spotlight trained on her.
The daughter of Matrix star Laurence Fishburne covers this months issue of As Is magazine (we’ve never heard of it either).
Obviously Montana and the ungrateful spawn of Miami smut king, Luther “Luke Skyywalker” Campbell, have a lot in common; both women don’t care how their words and actions affects their relationships with their fathers.
The self-centered headline reads: “I’m Not Doing Sh*t To Him, But Fu*king and Having My Career.”
Rather than discuss her fledgeling skills as a pron star, most of the buzz has been about the hyper-pigmented nodular rash on her buttocks — a rash that is airbrushed out of the cover photo.
The National Enquirer‘s online gossip blog, RadarOnline goes into specifics about Tana’s unspotted derriere.
But unlike her adult videos where she was au natural, it looks like the magazine has touched up her derriere.
Montana’s spotty discoloration on her backside is something the porn star spoke about recently.
“I’ve had spots on my butt forever – it’s a leopard booty,” she joked.
On the cover of As Is, a title that touts itself as ‘the benefits of beauty, booty and brains’, her bottom is all one smooth color.
