Starts ticking just…about…NOW! I knew it would not be long before we would know the name of his prostitute, excuse me, ahem, escort. Then the media would school us on HER Myspace, HER interview with NY Times, HER pitiful upbringing, HER struggles with her music career, HER million hits to her Myspace page, HER 700,000+ downloads of her music, HER innocence in this entire thing. It is sickening already. Reporters staked out in front of her $3,000+ per month studio apartment building. They reported how her lover left her after divulging he had fathered two children. Poor girl. Now how will she make her monthly rent payments?

Slowly, she is being made out to be this innocent damsel, and frankly, I have heard enough. I just don’t want to be seen as a “monster,” she says. LOL, she is already setting up for the sympathy tour. She “has been identified” and I wish it had stopped there. I admit--I was curious to know what a $5,000 trick looked like. But honestly, she looks average, like the next person walking on the street. I expected more of a fantasy type chick. My curiosity is over. But of course, the press won’t let this one die. This isn’t over, and hopefully, if she has a deal we won’t have to be subjected to seeing her do healthy lifestyle Jenny Craig ads.

Sure, the Playboy, Penthouse offers or Perfect 10 offers have probably started rolling in and PR/Management firms and paparazzi must be jumping over each other like a pack of hungry wolves trying to make a connection and holla. Book deals, record contracts, movies, TV & radio appearances, reality show deals. I am sure they are to follow, because it seems this can only happen in America. Rewards for bad behavior.

Does anyone think HER deal should specify that she should not be able to profit from this situation? And hopefully, HE will strike the same deal.

Avery Beverages, a Connecticut based company is manufacturing bottled water for dogs. Woof Water--pure spring water. In their research 9 out of 10 dogs prefer Woof Water. Fido won't drink tap water? Too bad. He gots ta go. This is ridiculous...LOL, can't believe it. The sad thing is kooks will buy it and they will make a ton of money.

BOO HOO HOO. WAHHHH. I was going to ignore this story until I saw this crying act this morning. This is really creepy. Sobbing and crying snot over a dog on national television. I guess I will never understand some of our priorities or the dog-parent (pet owner) relationship. It's not like the dog is going to be euthanized or is being abused...come on, it's not that serious. People are dying every day. Ellen, be a wo-man about it. She was out of control. Iggy will be just fine. And those kids can get another dog. AFTER THOUGHT: Maybe her hormones are acting up.

""I thought I did a good thing," a tearful DeGeneres said Tuesday during Ellen. "I tried to find a loving home for the dog because I couldn't keep it…

"I feel totally responsible for it, and I'm so sorry. I'm begging them to give that dog back to that family. It's not their fault. It's my fault. I shouldn't have given the dog away. Just please give the dog back to those little girls."

But apparently the kids are going to have to wait a few years if they want to do business with Mutts and Moms." READ MORE...
