Lets just start this off by saying its been a long time since MC has seen a Guilty Pleasures segment. Therefore it goes without saying that a lot has changed in the land of celebrity. The Hollywood crazies have become a lot better about hiding their issues and addictions. Despite this, the media scrutiny of their every move has increased in recent years. I mean, really, do we care that Britney Spears went grocery shopping and bought Cheetos? Kind of makes American pop-culture obsession with celebrity border on stalker-level. BUT, I digress…on with the gossip!
Used to be that I would start off every Guilty Pleasures with the most important A-list gossip. Today, I will instead push my own agenda to announce something VERY IMPORTANT! Some of you may already know the news but feel free to react with glee anyway: The Real Housewives of New Jersey will be back for a second season!!! Don’t judge me. Its very important. Turns out the housewives were stalling signing any new contracts in an effort to get bigger paychecks. I’m guessing its probably to help pay for their own bubbie-jobs (boob-job for all of you English speakers).
On a more serious note, it appears that Billy Mays did not die of any kind of head trauma following his odd airplane incident. The coroner in Tampa, FL held a press conference today and stated that his professional hypothesis on the matter was that Mays died of a possible pulmonary embolism. He went on to say that more tests are necessary to make this conclusion. In case you hadn’t heard Oxi Clean is the shit. Buy some as an ode to Billy Mays who made the product such a success.

In lighter news, well, darker news might be a better way to color it. Britney Spears is a brunette now. No, its not a wig. I wish. Why? No idea. At least she has hair.
Notice that her sunglasses match her Cheeto-colored blouse. I presume she chose the ensemble so that when she gets actual Cheeto-fingers she can simply wipe them on her bosom. I hereby crown her Queen Cheetoh-boobs.
The lead story and cover of the upcoming edition of Vanity Fair is Heath Ledger. What with Michael, Billy, Ed and Farrah all recently dead, apparently the magazine thought we should remember someone else too. The article chronicles Ledger’s final days alive in painstaking detail and manages to garner interviews from many people who refrained from speaking on Ledger’s passing immediately following the event. At the same time it makes you wonder why Vanity Fair is lowering itself to a semi-tabloid level.

Lets make this one short but sweet: it seems there is a John Edwards sex tape.
Janet Jackson spoke at the BET Awards last night on the passing of her brother, Michael Jackson. Janet, 43, eloquentelly said, “My entire family wanted to be here tonight but it was just too painful, so they elected me to speak to all of you. I’m going to keep it very short. To you, Michael is an icon. To us, Michael is family. And he will forever live in all of our hearts. On behalf of my family, and myself, thank you for all of your love. Thank you for all of your support. We miss him so much. Thank you so much.”
