It's been a week of ups and downs in the celebrity gossip world. So, the question is: Do you want the good news or bad news first? Bad news? Of course! (Everybody always asks for bad news first for some reason.) This week marks yet another chapter in the book of celebrity rehab stories. First and foremost, druggie-prostitution-loving actor, Charlie Sheen, admitted himself voluntarily to rehab going on an indefinite break from his successful sitcom, "Two and a Half Men," This of course all comes after a briefcase full of cocaine was discovered that was being delivered to Charlie Sheen's home and he was hospitalized for a hernia on Thursday. The second half of this chapter consists of Disney tween star, Demi Lovato, left rehab today. She left saying she wants to get back into her normal routine, this all happening after her entry into rehab for punching a backup dancer on tour. "How does this fit into the bad news category?" you may ask. Because I've seen this kind of episode before, and I can tell you where it (most likely) all leads to: another stay in the Promises Malibu Rehab Center.
Now that we got the bad news out of the way, let's be a little more optimistic. This week media mogul, Oprah Winfrey, announced on her syndicated television show that she had a long lost half-sister, which was discovered after the sister hired a detective to find her relatives. Oprah's sister, Pat, after being announced of course, then came out to greet the audience. I'm as big a fan of family reunions as anyone, but I just want to know though: How exactly does a phone conversation dealing with something like this go? Here's what I depict:
Investigator: Okay, Pat, I've been working diligently on your case for a long time now and so far I haven't been able to find any of your parents or grandparents.
Pat: Oh that's terrible!
Investigator: Yea, I'm really sorry to say I probably am not going to be able to track them down.
Pat: (Crushed at the prospect most likely also crying.) So what should I do?
Investigator: Well I suppose you could cut your losses and give up or keep holding out and hope something comes up.
Pat: (Even more disappointed and perhaps sobbing at this point) I see.
Investigator: Oh, I forgot to tell you something though... Oprah's your sister! (Click-Phone Call End)
Pat: (A different kind of tears altogether)

I'm back!!! Did you miss me all my friends in the blogosphere? Well miss no more, because J.C. White Is The New Black is out of retirement and back again. Therefore, without any further adieu, let's get to some trashy celebrity tabloid gossip!
The single most important (and tragic) celebrity piece of information I could possibly write about is the abrupt departure of Keith Olbermann from his MSNBC show, "Countdown with Keith Olbermann." The liberal political pundit announced this evening that this would be his last show on the network, the day after the cable provider, Comcast, signed a deal taking over NBC (and therefore also MSNBC.) With that being said, NBC released a statement saying the new deal with Comcast had nothing to do with Olbermann's departure. However, due to his controversial status, I for one am not buying it. Therefore, I urge all readers to write nasty hate-mail to Comcast demanding the return of Olbermann (and encourage all friends and family who love real news to do so as well.)
In other news, husband of "Real Housewives of Beverley Hills," star Kelsey Grammer has recently announced his plans to divorce his wife in order to marry his new bimbo girlfriend. This week, it has been released that he is even trying to speed the process up by accepting any and all conditions his wife, Camille Grammer, has demanded. Therefore, it appears as either Kelsey is either a scumbag who wants to simply womanize, or Camille is a scumbag who has driven her husband away- or both! (Do any other reality show star couples with eight children happen to come to mind?)
Lastly, on a personal note, I must ask if you watched American Idol? Did you see me? Huh? Huh? Huh? The show premiered this week featuring the city I auditioned in this summer, New York! (Well, technically East Rutherford, NJ.) However, the premiere was met with terrible ratings (that is for Idol) loosing 12% of its viewership from the first night to the second night of the premiere. (I actually have to admit that I didn't even watch it to try to find myself because Idol has become so dull lately, although my sister told me she saw me on a crowd shot featured on Entertainment Tonight- yeah!) Does this prove that the era of Idol is really over? Well, one thing's for sure... if they had let me through the auditions it sure wouldn't have been!
