Kelly Clarkson is Tired of Fat Jokes


The first season American Idol winner has come a long way from her hay days in Katy, Texas. She’s now 27, with new hot singles, and loving everything about herself–except, maybe, the weight she’s put on over the past seven years.

She’s currently not laughing. “The rumors are not helping me on the dating front!” she said. “I prefer the boys. I’m extremely flattered when I do get hit on by girls, and I think it’s hot, but I’m not into it. I like boys.”

But other than that, the Texas native sticks it to her bullies. “I love my body. I’m very much OK with it. I don’t think artists are ever the ones who have the problem with their weight, it is other people.”

We agree Clarkson. Curvy is sexy. And Clarkson’s currently curvy, sexy, and single.  Ya'll all know how much I love Kelly Clarkson but I do have to upload this funny parody song for ya'll all to hear.

Me First, Me First over at the old Metro North in Dobbs Ferry


Well all I have to tell you a story about a guy on my train this morning.  Talk about total jerk.  I've seen him over the past year push his way into the train in the morning and strategically stand where he has seen others stand on past days just to jockey for position and get into the train first but today he chose to PUSH up on the wrong person.

A couple of months ago he PUSHED into a fellow train rider as she was entering the train and she had given him a piece of her mind.  Now knowing what a jerk he was from the past I immediately assumed that he must have done something to her and of course in speaking to her later I would find out that he did indeed PUSH her when entering the train.  And yet today, he yelled at me for supposedly doing the exact same thing to him.  Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!

Well for those of you who know me you know that come into my court and we WILL PLAY BALL!  So as  you guessed I told him exactly how I felt and didn't back down as he probably would have liked.  In speaking to another train rider later we kinda figured that he probably gets off on it.  SO EWWWH!

So what does this guy look like?  Well think of an attitude like Michael Douglas in the movie "Falling Down" where he just snaps and goes crazy and mix in Mr. Rogers and perhaps the neighbor pedofile and there you have it.  I'm going to make it my aim to post his picture every more clearer here daily for all to see just in case you BUMP into him or come into his path and are accused of PUSHING him.

It should be noted that later on after the train ride several riders expressed to me that it was not I but HE who had pushed while entering the door as they had seen it from their vantage point as the train came into the station.  It feels so good to be VIDICATED!

** Note Qubert as we will henceforth refer to him is sitting behind the empty spot (to the left) in this picture.  You can see his BALD head shining forth.  Keep coming back for daily blog updates to see if we can get a full picture of the JERK for you all to see.  


Daphne Zuniga returns to 'Melrose Place'


Well there more news on the new Melrose Place reboot.  Jo is back!  Daphne Zuniga -- last seen on One Tree Hill -- will reprise her role as photographer Jo Reynolds in The CW's reboot of Melrose Place this fall. She'll guest star in at least two episodes; her character returns to town after enjoying success in her career as a professional photographer.

Zuniga is the fourth member of the original Melrose Place cast to sign onto The CW's update; Josie Bissett, who played Jane Andrews Mancini, is also expected to make a guest-starring appearance this fall while Laura Leighton (Sydney) and Thomas Calabro (Michael) will recur. Now all we need is the Queen Bitch herself Heather Locklear as devilish Amanda Woodward and this show will be a success out the door!  I'm thinking that Locklear will take a page out of the original series book and join during the second season and bring up any lagging ratings and reclaim her crown as the Queen Bitch and Diva or primetime soaps.  Melrose Place debuts Sept. 8.
