The Hollywood 5 & 1 05.01.10: Celebrity Split Edition
Posted by Steve Gustafson on 05.01.2010
Sandra Bullock shocks the world by adopting! She doesn't shock anyone by filing for divorce! Chelsea Handler sex tape -- real or gag? Jenna Jameson and Tito Ortiz break up to make up! Lindsay Lohan has another car wreck of a week! Plus, outtakes from my interview with Ashley Dupre, 5 things about Nina Mercedez, Jordan Carver vs. Holly Madison in VS., and Lacey Chabert is the "& 1" Model of the Week! All this and more inside!
BEFORE WE BEGIN...
I'm Steve Gustafson and we're back for another week of celebrity gossip, hot women, and goofy fun. I read through all the tabloid magazines and gossip sites so you don't have to. Name a better way to spend a weekend!
Before we jump into it, besides writing about the zany lives of famous people, I cover movie news! Yes, that's right. Each and every Monday I do the Big Screen Bulletin. Check out last week where I listed my picks for lower level Marvel characters who should have movies!
The 5 & 1 franchise is growing! Check out The Music 5 & 1 by Adam Hill. Ever week he raises the bar! Larry Csonka turned over duties to Ryan Merholz! Ryan made his comeback to 411mania after a long hiatus and is doing serious work with the The Wrestling 5 & 1.
Last week I mentioned that I had interviewed the beautiful Ashley Dupre. You can check the interview out right here! And for a special treat, I have some BONUS questions below, just for the 5 & 1 crowd!
Nothing scandalous here!
Real quick. Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry have split. So she's back on the market!
The line starts behind me!
WHO SAID WHAT? "This is not the first bomb I've experienced."
The way cool George Clooney talking about the dangerous conditions by where he lived. Looks like approximately 500 pounds of hand grenades, mortars, and aircraft bombs were hauled out of Lake Como, roughly 50 feet from where Clooney's mansion backs up to the water. Whoa!
Seeing his lady makes him even cooler!
VS
Let's take a look at last weeks results! Eva Mendes and Salma Hayek wrestled it out. While it was close here and there, in the end, the winner was never in doubt. Salma easily coasted to a victory, with 27 votes to Eva's 18.
This week I could be accused of stacking the deck in order to come up with new challengers to Christina Hendricks. But let's see how new hotness Jordan Carver handles herself when she takes on the girl next door, Holly Madison!
Jordan Carver VS. Holly Madison

CELEBRITY TWITTER-A-GO-GO!
Remember how I said reality celeb's would use Twitter as a press agent. You know, send out press tweets and all that. Well, I guess mainstream actor's have found Twitter useful to keep themselves in the public eye. Maybe therapeutic in a way. Take the case of one Jim Carrey. He used Twitter to announce the split with Jenny McCarthy and went on to make some odd tweets about other celebrity happenings, drawing more than a raised eyebrow from some. Now he's back with the odd tweets. For example:
#BOING WORLD! I'm so grateful 2 u who bounce the big blue ball with me but I've had it with u who need 2 chalk me up as crazy. cont.–>
The truth is I'm an intuitive,creative,and spiritual person.I'm healthier,smarter,and YES much more sane than u who say I'm crazy.cont–>
I'm so sane in fact,that I have managed to transcend the pettiness of your kind my whole life! U suppressive types who r so afraid…cont–>

and so you serve no purpose except to get in the way of those who bounce this big blue ball. I call you CYCLOPS because… cont—>

SPECIAL LINDSAY LOHAN REPORT!
Yeah, she gets special coverage this week. What's going on with Lindsay Lohan? I mean a number of photos have come out looking like this:
These are are drawing all sorts of attention. But that's nothing. Add in some drama with her family...well, that's not really a surprise. But the big news is Lohan violated the terms of her probation and is headed for court next month that odds say she could be doing some jail time. She's been on probation for DUI and has not fulfilled the alcohol education requirement laid down by the judge. Judge Marsha Revel made it extremely clear to Lindsay late last year, she must attend alcohol ed courses once every 7 days. The only exception: If she was in inpatient rehab. If Lindsay did not comply with the terms of probation, she was going to jail. Props to the Judge! The school in which Lindsay enrolled is required by state law to inform the court only if the student is MIA for 21 days. Here's where it's blurry. The school has not reported an attendance violation because Lindsay frequently waited until the 21st day to attend classes. While Lindsay met the school's requirement, she clearly violated the judge's order. What do you think? Should Lindsay go to jail?
You probably saw reports of her staying out partying till 5 AM. If she's not careful, she could end up like this:
5 THINGS ABOUT NINA MERCEDEZ YOU DIDN'T KNOW!
When you request, if I can, I fulfill it! Some of you may recognize her, some of you might deny seeing her work, but let's get to know Nina Mercedez a little better!
1. She dropped out of school and worked a variety of jobs, including Denny's, OfficeMax, and Barnes & Noble. 2. She claims she was neither popular nor attractive as a teenager; she appeared on a segment of The Jenny Jones Show titled "From Geek To Chic" showing her "then and now" appearance. 3. She's won Miss Nude North America, Miss Nude International, Exotic Dancer/Entertainer of the Year, and Miss Nude Universe. 4. Nina has done mainstream appearances on The Anna Nicole Show, been a Pony shoes Model, a regular in Muscular Development magazine, including a cover with a 20 page spread, magazine appearances in Men's Fitness, King, Blender, and The New York Times. 5. Start saving your money! Lovable Dolls will be making life-size silicone likeness dolls of Nina starting in 2010.
And now you know...
Think you could handle her?
VIDEO-O-GO-GO
If you are my friend on Facebook (And if you aren't, why not? www.facebook.com/stevegustafson) then you've seen this. But if you like Star Wars, girls, or car washes, check this out!
Alright, let's get to the actual Hollywood 5 & 1. I go through 5 things out of Hollywood this past week that made me scratch my head plus our "& 1" Model of the Week! Let's go!
Bullock For the Win!
You know what? You have to give her props. While under INTENSE media watch with winning an Oscar and a cheating husband, Sandra Bullock was able to keep a HUGE secret. The adoption of beautiful 3 1/2-month-old baby Louis Bardo Bullock. If you think that's easy, you have no idea how Hollywood works. That means she was able to hide the adoption process, have a large number of people stay quiet, and keep the little one away from the lens. Bravo Sandra. Bravo! Plus, she landed the cover of People's World's Most Beautiful People issue. Sure, she bumped Julia Roberts from the cover spot, but is it that big of a deal? Bullock has been all over the place over the Jesse James fiasco. And everyone loves a comeback. It's a no-brainer. Oh, and she's filing for divorce, to the surprise of no one.
Speaking of, James has issued his response to People:
"My whole life has been full of hard decisions. The decision to let my wife end our marriage, and continue the adoption of Louis on her own, has been the hardest. The love I have for Louis cannot be put to words. Not having him around to love and to hold has left a huge hole in my heart. Sandy is the love of my life, but considering the pain and devastation I have caused her, it would be selfish to not let her go. Right now it is time for me to beat this addiction that has taken two of the things I love the most in life. I have always taken great pride in proving people wrong. That time has come once again to show that I am not what everyone says I am. I know in my heart that I can be the best father possible to my four children, and the mate Sandy deserves, and realize that this is an incredible mountain to climb. But I believe that the steps I have taken in the last 30 days are the foundation for making this happen. The lifelong commitment I am making is what being a real husband and father is all about. I ask that you please do not judge Sandy for the things I have done. She has done no wrong. She played no part in any of this. She has been an amazing wife, mother, and best friend, for the over 6 years we have been together."
Is he really sorry or sorry because he got caught? Way in below!
I'm still impressed she was able to keep this quiet. Wow.
One Helluva Demo!
RadarOnline.com wants us to believe they have something juicy. While most are rushing to spread the word about a sex tape starring Chelsea Handler, when you hear the facts, it's not as steamy as you think. Let's break the tape down:
It starts in her apartment and she's in her work uniform. She starts a stand up routine and then it suddenly cuts to what seems to be her involved in some X-rated shenanigans. Chelsea, who is on all fours on a bed is naked and at several times during the filming she looks directly at the camera. Her breasts are bare during the act and at the end, Chelsea's partner speaks in a clear British accent, asking, "Did we get the (bleep) shot?" Chelsea looks into the camera and smiles at this point. Then the tape immediately cuts back into Chelsea continuing her stand-up routine in her apartment.
Handler addressed the tape on her show last night and said it was a stand up comedy bit and she was hoping to get noticed. The tape was made 10-years ago, and is part of what Handler calls part of an audition for a comedy club. "I would like to say to RadarOnline.com, thanks for ruining my surprise Christmas gift to my staff, and number two, it was made as a joke. I put it on an audition tape for a comedy club, because I'm a comedienne, and I've been showing it at birthday parties for (expletive) years!" The tape was sent out to Hollywood agents as a demo when Chelsea was looking to get attention. A source close to the situation had the following to say, "Chelsea gave this demo tape to a bunch of talent agents and managers hoping to book some gigs. It was taken so long ago and distributed on old VHS tapes, that I'm sure most people just threw them out because her stand-up was so bad and they didn't realize she would make it big one day. It's highly possible that many of the recipients of the tape didn't even watch past the first couple of minutes and missed the sex tape part altogether." Check out Handler's take on it all.
Is the joke on her? Or us?
Life Lesson # 23432.
What's the lesson here? Anyone? Anyone?
Don't cast judgment until everything has come out.
Who here automatically thought Tito Ortiz was guilty of beating Jenna Jameson? Be honest. Looks like things weren't quite what we were made to believe. Jenna, who accused Tito of injuring her during an argument, is now saying, "What actually happened has now been dramatically distorted and misinterpreted and remarks that both Tito and I made after the police arrived reflect the state of shock that we were both in." Meaning: He didn't hit me. As for Tito, he's backing off what he strongly insinuated, that Jenna is an OxyContin addict. Tito's says that he found two OxyContin pills and may have jumped to conclusions. Jenna says the pills were very old. Tito's lawyer, Chip Matthews, told TMZ the whole thing was "a big misunderstanding." Look, it probably went down that he found the pills, they got into an argument, she freaked out, he restrained her, she spazzed even more, called the cops, BOOM. It happens. Trust me, if he had really hit her, she'd have more than a little bruise.
The big question: Will we remember this lesson next time it happens?
Happy family again.
Another Show Not to Watch.
I'm doing this as a public service. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS SHOW! Since getting dumped by Snooki in a voicemail, Emilio Masella isn't at home doing...whatever it is he does. He's jumping right back into the dating game with the help of another reality TV personality...Spencer Pratt. I cold smell his foul stench a mile away. Pratt's production company, Pratt Productions...great name by the way, very creative...is teaming up with Masella on a new dating show...I'm not naming it because I don't want to give it any promotion. OK, so you know to avoid it, it's called Fist Pumping for Love. Wow. That's horrible. It will follow Emilio as he travels the country "in search of love." *Sniff* Smells like LAME. "It is the perfect partnership for me as a growing player in reality television," Pratt said in a statement. Further proof that Pratt has no clue what he's doing. "I am tired of these fake Italian girls," says Masella, "I want a real guid-ette who can speak Italian, so we are prepared to take my search from Hollywood, Calif., to the streets of Howard Beach in Queens, N.Y." Just another reason to hate Pratt.
Besides questionable rashes, you too could get a show if you date this!

Is he really sorry or sorry because he got caught? Way in below!
......................................
Um, yeah, do you just maybe mean to say "weigh" in more, not "way?" Just wondering.
Wow, the levels this site has dropped to in getting their, ahem, "reporters." Yup, 3rd grade education is all that is required to write for this site.

OK, someone needs to remind me why we still pay any attention at all to Lindsey Lohan. She looks like shit and talks a load of shit. OH yeah.....the purpose of her life is merely to serve as a warning to the rest of us.
OK, I geddit now :)
Posted By: 5 O'clock wakeup call (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 08:09 AM
Jordan of COURSE!
Posted By: CM Wolf (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 08:57 AM
Thanks, Steve! I guess Lohan has gone to The Dark Side. Jordan.
Posted By: The Great Capt. Smooth (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 09:51 AM
Jordan Carver. I prefer brunettes.
Posted By: Jason Douglas (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 10:12 AM
1. nina mercedez 2. holly 3. jordan
Posted By: Guest#7422 (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 10:14 AM
Holly Madison is gross. No vote for her here.
What happened to Jenna J's face? Way too much work done. Yow!
Ashley D is Uber HAWT! Eat your heart out JD from Howard Stern Show.
Posted By: FUZEY (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 11:44 AM
HOLLY MADISON....because she, unlike Carver, has shown her tits!
Posted By: BLACK (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 12:09 PM
Jesse James is a grease monkey. Do you really believe he wrote that statement, or was it his P.R. firm? I think the latter.
Posted By: Guest#3785 (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 12:43 PM
Guest 0470/6703, I suppose I should apologize for my mistake. In my haste to get this in before deadline I made a spelling error. You're right, no other website makes mistakes and because I made one I should quit. You've helped me see the error of my ways. Or is that weighs?
Luckily I have douches like you to correct me. Thanks!

Eva Mendes is way hotter u posted shit pics and biased the voting.
Posted By: Vampiro56 (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 02:01 PM
Can't believe Lacey Chabert was the voice of Eliza Thornberry and the original voice of Meg Griffin... why are such hot chicks voicing cartoon geeks?
Posted By: Greenlight (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 02:43 PM
Tito and Jenna. Sounds like another case of being made for each other. Jordan or Holly? Eh. Tie. Bring on the next two. Or is it four? Where's the link to the real deal on Ashley Dupre? I guess we'll see her soon enough. And what happened to Chelsea's tape?
Posted By: guest (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 05:51 PM
I guess Holly Madison, but I frankly don't find breasts that big attractive on anyone. How come Carver's back isn't broken already? Seriously.
Posted By: JLAJRC (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 06:08 PM
I vote Lacey over Holly or Jordan. 'cause I'm a rebel like that, and I don't find either of those two particularly attractive.
Posted By: Jeremy Thomas (Registered) on May 01, 2010 at 09:33 PM
Holly, but I would take Lacey over her
Posted By: ts nnep (Guest) on May 01, 2010 at 10:21 PM
Good lord those things are huge
Posted By: Smokey McPott (Guest) on May 02, 2010 at 06:53 AM
Jordan Carver, Holly's face always makes me think she's like 50 years old or something
Posted By: Guest#8532 (Guest) on May 02, 2010 at 11:59 AM
She the fuck up, Guest#0470.
Jordan Carver, though no one can top Nigella Lawson. She's just as hot as Christina Hendricks plus her voice is sexier. MILFtastic.
Posted By: Zingy (Guest) on May 02, 2010 at 03:56 PM
Andie Bevan. More from her that chick is blazing.
Posted By: Jay5her (Guest) on May 02, 2010 at 11:12 PM
Jordan Carver wins this round... But she is no match for Hendricks.
