Bits O' Upchuck

* I hate announcements that announce when they're going to make an important announcement. Nevertheless, we find out Monday at 10:30 a.m. how Anna Nicole Smith died. The findings at Monday's news conference "are going to be a significant announcement."...they "are going to provide some resolution" in the death of Anna Nicole. To which I say: IT'S ABOUT F'ING TIME! Wow, after all this time we could actually have both Anna's cause of death and the identity of Dannielynn's babydaddy all in the space of a week or two. Brilliant.

* Bridget Moynahan was on Martha Stewart Wednesday and did a great job of hiding her contempt for ex Tom Brady and new gal Gisele: "This week [it'll be] five months."... "I am. I'm a little nervous, 'cause I haven't done it before," said Moynahan. "But, you know, I have little nephews, and it's always nice to spend time with them, especially around the holidays."

* Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, through their Jolie-Pitt Foundation, have donated $100,000 (US) to help build the first modern medical facility in Duk County, Sudan. -- The Duk Lost Boys Clinic is the brainchild of John Dau, director of the non-profit organization Direct Change's Sudan Project and himself one of the "Lost Boys" of the Sudan. -- His story is featured in the documentary God Grew Tired of Us, which Pitt executive produced.

* Justin Timberlake is too sexy and dirty to be honored by his home state of Tennessee - at least for now - The resolution, introduced by state Senator Ophelia Ford, reads: "Be it resolved...that we hereby honor and commend Mr. Justin Timberlake on his highly successful music career and for his meritorious service to the State of Tennessee and extend to him our best wishes for every future success." -- However, Republican senator Raymond Finney removed the resolution before it could reach the legislature, citing the inappropriate lyrical content of Timberlake's tracks, like "Rock Your Body" and "SexyBack."

* Her name may be Foxy Brown but she's one dumb fox. Brown failed to appear in Broward County court today on battery charges -- the result of a throw-down at a Florida beauty supply shop. Brown was applying beauty products in the store's bathroom when the owner tried to close up shop. Brown allegedly threw a tantrum and threw hair glue at the owner, then allegedly spat on him. Judge Lazurus issued a bench warrant for her arrest when it became clear she would not be appearing. P.S. Her real name is Inga Marchand. Interesting. The pic is from her arrest....*sigh* You can take the girl outta da thug life but you can't take...well, you know what I'm sayin'.
