Frightening commercial FAIL...

The British have gone too far. They must be stopped! "What have they done now?" you ask? They have made a commercial (and product) that would only appeal to clergy members of the Catholic church. An anatomically correct doll that pees on you when you tickle him. I don't know what else to say. You have to see it to believe...

eBay auction of Michael Jackson painting "The Book"...


Starting tonight on internet auction site eBay.com, you will be able to bid on the 40x50 inch Michael Jackson work of art, "The Book".The painting was done by Australian artist Brett-Livingston Strong and is reportedly the only painting for which the troubled pop star ever posed. It shows the King of Pop in a red velvet jacket holding a journal at his famous Neverland Ranch.

The auction will start tonight with a minimum bid of........... $2.75 million dollars. The owner, Marty Abrams, who currently has the painting hanging in his house (why?) is hoping for over 3 million. The bidding will end on April 17th, so get your pocket books ready!

You know where I'll be tonight! Watching all the crazy people on eBay blow through their life savings for a creepy, 80s inspired painting of a dead singer. At least he'll live on forever in this painting which also supposedly features Tinker Bell in the background...

Nicollette Sheirdan slaps Marc Cherry with a lawsuit...


Nicollette Sheridan (46) has slapped the creator and producers of Desperate Housewives with a $20 million dollar lawsuit. Sheridan played Edie Brit on the show for 5 years before being killed off last year. Although it seemed that all had parted ways amicably, she is not going quietly. The suit was filed on Monday in the Los Angeles Superior Court and accuses the show's creator, Marc Cherry of assault and battery, gender violence, intentional infliction of emotional distress and wrongful termination. She also named Touchstone Television, ABC Studios, and ABC Entertainment group in the suit. She is requesting a jury trial for the case. Here is more information from radaronline.com:

Sheridan alleges that “on September 24, 2008, during a rehearsal for the show, when Sheridan questioned Cherry about something that was in the script, Cherry took her aside and forcefully hit her with his hand across her face and head." The suit says Cherry “created a hostile work environment for the cast, crew and writers who work on the show, and Sheridan in particular.”
Sheridan says Cherry later “begged for forgiveness,” and although she reported the incident to ABC, “Cherry’s abusive and aggressive behavior towards (her) not only persisted, it worsened.”
The suit also contends that when Cherry discovered Desperate Housewives’ co-star Teri Hatcher went over Cherry’s head to speak to ABC executives about him, he said, “I hope Teri Hatcher gets hit by a car and dies.”

Sheridan says that in February 2009, she was informed that she was being terminated from the show, and that her character would be killed off. Her suit claims her firing cost her millions of dollars in future earnings.

WEZ SEZ: Nicollette Sheridan - Loved her as Edie Brit and always wondered why they got rid of her. The show just isn't the same without her. Could this be the explanation?
