I’ve always had a certain respect for celebrities who stayed really honest about things. I mean, everyone is entitled to their secrets and whatnot, but when famous people try to lie about the obvious (i.e. Paris Hilton telling Larry King that she’s never done drugs, Paris Hilton saying she isn’t racist, Paris Hilton acting like she isn’t a whore, etc) its just retarded. So when Rachael Ray told InTouch Magazine that she’s a size 6, I’m a little pissed because she hadn’t lied up until that point. Here’s what the chef said of her size:

You look amazing - have you lost weight since last season?
I don’t know or care - I’m happy and I feel good. My looks are never the focus of my work.

Does working with food all day make it harder to maintain your weight?
No, it’s easy. When you cook, you control the salt, fat and quality of your food.

What’s your secret to staying thin without depriving yourself?
Everything in moderation. And I’m not thin, but thanks!

How do you avoid eating if you feel tempted?
I don’t avoid it. I eat.

Have you always been the same size?
No, but for several years I have been a 6. Within a size 6, you can play with about 20 pounds thanks to stretch fabrics. I don’t get on the scale, I have enough to worry about! I eat well - lots of vegetables and whole grains and protein. When a size 6 gets too tight, I just eat less and move more.

When you chose to work out, what kinds of exercises do you prefer?
I do sit-ups, Jane Fonda butt lifts and push-ups each day, that’s it. I have a gym card that spends most of its time mocking me from my wallet. With my schedule, it’s very hard for me to maintain a consistent gym routine.

If she’s wearing a size 6, it must be in maternity clothes or something. Don’t get me wrong–I like that Rachael Ray hasn’t conformed to the stick-thin Hollywood thing, but I really don’t think it’s possible that she’s a size 6. For as short as she is, she’s really packing some weight. I mean, come on! I’d say she’s more like a size 10 or something. What do you think?

Jessica Biel has sure some a long way since 7th Heaven and Summer Catch, hasn’t she? I remember thinking when I saw Summer Catch that both Freddie Prinze Jr. and Jessica Biel were probably the two worst actors I’d ever seen. Fast forward a couple of years and Jessica Biel is getting all these serious, dramatic roles. I will say I think she’s a better actress now, though. Ever since she did The Texas Chainsaw Massacre I’ve had a bit more respect for her cause I always thought acting like you were terrified all the time would be hard. And now, a couple drama and thrillers later, Jessica is set to star in yet another thriller.

The film, titled “Die a Little” after the book of that same title written by Megan Abbott, is about a woman’s life being turned upside down when her brother meets and starts dating a mysterious woman. The book is written in the 1950s but the film will be set in present day. Biel will star as the mysterious woman and she will also produce the film. She’s really trying to get paid, isn’t she?!

On Friday morning, my fiance and I drove to Reno to watch my brother-in-law’s brother play football at University of Nevada at Reno. Because I wanted to treat it like a mini-vacation, even though Reno is like a skankier, more disease-ridden version of Las Vegas, we decided to just enjoy it.. thus, I could not bring myself to post because, after all, it is considered “work.” I kept checking the ‘net from my iPhone (not as cool as you might think it is) and all I was reading was Britney Spears news so I figured I picked a good weekend to get away–I didn’t seem to miss all that much.

Anyway, while I was away this weekend I had an experience that made me think about what celebrities really go through.. and I’m thinking I should go easier on their rich asses. See, my brother-in-law’s brother is the quarterback at UNR and he is already being treated like a celebrity. Granted, someday I think he will be really famous in the NFL or something, right now its just college football. I guess its bigger than I realized, though, because people wait for him to come out of the locker room after the game and they scream his name, beg him for pictures, ask for autographs, and sort of just trail after him. And when he goes out, people stop him for pictures and autographs. That’s probably not even 5% of what its like for huge celebrities, either. Its ruthless, you know? And when you stop and think about it, famous people are just people with lots of money and sometimes talent. Why do we worship them and follow them around? I’m thinking, now, that its all sort of weird. What do you think about paparazzi and media that always surround celebrities?

I’m back just in time for Halloween. I’m hoping for some good Christina Aguilera costume pictures, or maybe even Jennifer Aniston or something. Good Halloween costumes on fun celebrities. I don’t care about Paris Hilton or Lindsay Lohan or even Britney Spears. Just looking to have a quality Halloween!

Oh, and P.S.. the picture in this post is just some guy dressed up like Britney Spears. Accurate though, isn’t it?

Ever since yesterday when I posted that story about Jessica Biel going bonkers on a paparazzi, my world has been upside down. I really used to like Jessica Biel, seriously. My fiance and I really liked her because we’ve read so much good stuff about her. Like when Cameron Diaz approached her at a party and started going bonkers on her ass, Jessica didn’t say anything she just kept her cool and walked away. That’s classy! And she is never photographed smoking cigarettes, leaving a club drunk, bending over without underwear… she’s always setting a positive example. She works out, she does good movies (for the most part) and she is always polite to the paps. And now that she’s got this Justin Timberlake hair up her ass, she’s being moody and I don’t like it. I’m trying not to let this one incident make me hate her but its hard! Telling the paps to get a real job.. Not cool at all.

If I had Natalie Portman’s body, I would do nude scenes! I mean, she may be a little flat chested but so what, she’s still thin and in great shape. But I guess she sees it as more than her body.. morals, who knew!

 “I’m really sorry I didn’t listen to my intuition. From now on, I’m going to trust my gut more. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is say no.”

Wow, she regrets is already? That’s fast. I haven’t watched the clips or looked at the photograph stills from her nude scene, cause I just don’t care that much, but if you’ve seen it let me know if its a big deal. I mean, a big deal would be getting nude and pole dancing and whatnot. If its tasteful, I don’t see why she regrets it. But I think she’s right; the most powerful thing you can do in Hollywood is to say no.

You know Justin Timberlake always yells at the paparazzi? And when he was dating Cameron Diaz, they would both go bonkers on the paps and yell and scream and spit and stuff? Jessica was never a hater like that until she started dating Justin. This guy must have a vendetta out for the paps and wants everyone to hate them cause now Jessica Biel is a hater, too.

Today after leaving a yoga studio in Santa Monica, Jessica Biel told the paps to get away from her and to “get a real job” while she poked at them with her big black and white umbrella. She caused more a scene being a bitch than if she just tried to sneak out un-noticed! What a snot!

You can see the pictures of Jessica Biel being a snotty bitch right here.

She’s losing my love, I’ll tell you that much.

Guess who! (I’ll give you a hint.. it’s a female!) *Bastardly*

If you feel like punishing yourself.. Britney Spears dancing in a bikini *Drunken Stepfather*

I hope this isn’t true but.. could Lindsay Lohan be engaged? *Yeeeah*

Danielle Lloyd in a yellow bikini and snow boots *Celebslam*

Mariah Carey painted a dress on herself again *The Superficial*

I was hoping this would turn out to be true! Finally pictures of Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon acting like a couple! There have been rumors about these two being a couple for like, a year! I seriously thought maybe Jake was Reese’s gay girlfriend but now that seems far away! They look really happy together… I wonder what Ryan Phillippe thinks? I read somewhere on the ‘net that these two were just acting like a couple to send hype towards their movie Rendition because it isn’t doing that well at the box office but I totally don’t see either one of them stooping that low! That’s an Angelina Jolie move, seriously! More pictures of the couple below.

Remember how Lindsay Lohan was supposed to have her 21st birthday party at Pure in Las Vegas but then backed out at the last minute so she could go to rehab? Well, I guess she cashed their check but can’t pay them back so now she owes them. She’s repaying them by hosting a New Year’s Party at LAX in Las Vegas, a club owned by Pure. Lindsay doesn’t want to but she has to since she hasn’t got the cash to pay them back. Do I smell a relapse?!

This couple is so cute, I can’t wait to see them on Oprah together. And by I can’t wait to see them, I mean, I’ve already read the interview on the internet but I hope the show is good!

Just because Seal is a singer doesn’t mean Heidi has to be. It’s okay for her to make money just being half naked and beautiful. I’d rather have her be good at the latter than crappy at the first. But the couple, who has two children together, are going to perform a duet at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show. They will be singing “Wedding Day” off of Seal’s new album. Kanye West and The Spice Girls will also be performing. Hope it’s good! (Not that I’ll be watching)
