Emily Maynard on The Bachelorette Premiere: Thank Goodness For New Faces!
May 15th
Emily Maynard is happy to be The Bachelorette, and even happier that the producers didn’t pull any major stunts with the casting. That we know of. Yet.
The Bachelorette spoilers for this season are still trickling in, so who knows what surprises await the beautiful single mom from Charlotte, North Carolina.
The season premiere last night was relatively drama-free and went off without a hitch, with the exception of a helicopter that had her fearing the worst.
That being the return of Brad Womack … or Bentley Williams.
Fortunately for Emily Maynard, the producers weren’t cruel enough to subject her to her ex-fiancee, or that jackass from Ashley’s season, as a stunt.
Instead, she met 25 great guys, many of whom went all out to impress her. Who made the best first impressions with the former Bachelor winner?
Some excerpts from Emily’s blog about the opener below:
“First of all, I can’t even begin to say how grateful and blessed I feel to be The Bachelorette. It’s still hard for me to wrap my head around the idea.”
“It was a big decision to come back. I was in love with Brad and what we had was very real and true, but when things didn’t work out with him, I was reminded that sometimes when people grow they grow apart.”
“I put a lot of pressure on myself to make it work because I’ve been in this situation before and in a way feel as though I’ve already had my chance.”
“It’s always scary meeting new people for the first time, especially like this! I wasn’t sure if I would like any of the guys or if any of the guys would like me, but so many of my fears were calmed after just the first limo.”
“I definitely felt a connection with a few of the guys and it made me confident that my decision to come back was worth it. So many of the guys stood out to me. Even though he was the last to show up, I think I have to start by acknowledging Kalon.”
“What an entrance! A million thoughts were going through my mind. I was extremely nervous it was Brad or possibly Bentley! I was relieved to see a fresh face.”
“As extravagant as the helicopter was, Jef showing up on the skateboard was way more impressive in my mind! I immediately loved that he wasn’t trying to impress me with some over the top entrance.”
“Anyone who knows me knows I have an extreme love for shoes, so Tony hit it out of the park with his glass slipper entrance.”
“He did a great job making a memorable impression because as he walked away he made me realize how much I want the fairytale ending and how this time I really hope the glass slipper fits and I find my Prince Charming!
“Last but not least, Doug. What a sweetheart! The letter his son wrote to me was one of the sweetest things I have ever received and if anyone can appreciate how hard it is being away from their child, it’s me.”
“I’m so grateful that Doug took a chance on love, and I was honored that he saw something in me. It meant a lot and I wanted him to know that I would take a chance on him too and that’s why I gave him the first impression rose.”
Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian Talk Nonsense on The Tonight Show
May 15th
Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night.
In related news, the talent booker for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno should be fired.
The first two minutes of the interview were spent in captivating fashion, as Leno asked a pregnant Kourtney about cravings and this led to a discussion between the sister of In-N-Out Burger (cha-ching!).
From there, Leno quizzed Kim on Kanye West and the track “Theraflu,” as she played dumb (okay, she might not have been playing) and responded “I don’t know if he wrote it for me… I think my name’s in it.”
Look for Kanye to appear this summer on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and watch the full interview with these morons below.

Daughter of Vicki Gunvalson: Pregnant!
May 15th
Vicki Gunvalson… to be a grandmother!
Sources tell Us Weekly the daughter of this Real Housewives of Orange County star is pregnant with her first child.
“Briana is pregnant and just about four months along,” a Real Housewives insider says of the 24-year old, who eloped in Las Vegas last October with Ryan Culberson, a U.S. soldier who recently fought in Afghanistan.
With family and friends invited this time.
“Briana is really happy, and now that Vicki knows, she’s really excited too,” says the pal.

Lady Gaga: Banned in Indonesia!
May 15th
Indonesia’s Little Monsters, revolt!
Lady Gaga, who is scheduled to perform in Jakarta next month, has just been banned by the nation following protests from hardline Islamic critics.
The concert drew vehement opposition from many in the world’s most populous Muslim nation, due to her controversial persona and racy getups.
A spokesman for the Indonesian national police has confirmed that the singer has been denied a permit for her June 3 show, thus negging the show.
It would have been the biggest stop on her Asian tour, having been set to take place at the 52,000-seat Gelora Bung Karno stadium in Jakarta.
The Islamic Defenders Front trashed the global pop superstar for her “Satanic lyrics” that threaten to “destroy the children’s sense of morality.”
Other protesters, equally enraged, even vowed to physically block the singer from setting foot on Indonesian soil if the show wasn’t cancelled.
Local law enforcement reportedly requested that the permit be denied after fearing that officers wouldn’t able to contain a massive on-site protest.
Earlier this spring, Gaga’s tour drew protests from South Korean Christian groups decrying that her “pornographic” performances promoted homosexuality.
No word if the Lady Gaga hermaphrodite rumors also make the protesters uneasy, or if they’re even allowed to read such things on the Internet.

President Obama on The View: A Discussion of the Economy, Gay Marriage and Kim Kardashian
May 15th
Fifty Shades of Grey – all the key issues – with the women of The View this week.
He corrected Elisabeth Hasselbeck when she described the President’s and Mitt Romney’s position on gay marriage as essentially the same. Not so, he says.
Obama discussed the JP Morgan banking crisis and much more in what was a pleasant, but ultimately forgettable and unnecessary visit to the daytime gab-fest.
There were some substantive policy discussions during his brief visit, but the highlight, at least from THG’s perspective, was Obama dishing on celebrity gossip.
Watch him answer a pop quiz from Joy Behar below:

John Travolta Accuser #1 Drops Sexual Battery Lawsuit
May 15th
Score one for John Travolta.
The first of three sexual battery accusers has moved to dismiss his own lawsuit against the movie legend. The anonymous masseur did not give a reason.
E! News has obtained the notice of dismissal, which was filed today in U.S. District Court. So the actor is officially in the clear … with this guy at least.
John Travolta’s accuser set off a firestorm last week, but drew criticism early on both for his extremely graphic lawsuit and for contradicting his story.
While the man claimed sexual assault at the hands of the actor which took place on January 16, Travolta’s flight records quickly torpedoed his credibility.
It’s not all clear skies ahead for Travolta, however.
Although attorney Okorie Okorocha has dismissed the original accuser as a client, the legal filing makes no mention of the second John Doe masseur, whom Okorocha will presumably continue to represent in his case.
He is seeking $2 million for the actor’s behavior during a similar massage gone awry. Travolta, through his attorney, has vehemently denied the accusations.
A third man, Fabian Zanzi, alleges similar conduct aboard a cruise ship.

Taylor Armstrong: Catastrophic Meltdown Alert!
May 15th
Taylor Armstrong is continuing to fall apart before our very eyes. Or before Bravo cameras, really, as producers’ plans luck may have it.
Following reports of Armstrong getting blitzed at a recent kids’ birthday party, sources now tell Radar Online that Armstrong suffered a “catastrophic meltdown” during a spa trip over the weekend.
“Taylor was wasted from the moment she appeared in the morning until the moment she collapsed at night,” claims this Real Housewives of Beverly Hills source. “It was a horrific sight to see. She totally lost control of her emotions and her temper. She is an absolute complete mess, but she refuses to acknowledge that she has a problem.”
Well, sure. That’s because the script hasn’t called for it yet.
The incident took place at Ojai Valley Inn, with witnesses claiming Armstrong was “all over the place” while shooting scenes with cast members. These same friends have allegedly been pushing for Taylor to enter rehab. Expect the crux of her season three storyline to be this supposed substance abuse problem.
