It creeps me out that Beyonce owns stock in furriers, and that she wears real fur as well. She's not making it onto my radar.
JLo leaving her dog unattended 3 days, with all it's water spilled and it's food untouched and spoilt and crying it's little lungs out and pawing at the door so much he ruined it, makes me think being a pet or child to JLo would not be wonderful. The little dog was covered in feces and had lost his voice from crying so hard. I Hope JLo doesn't breed.
I am very sceptical when it comes to tabloid gossip like the above account of what JLo apparently did. I have found JLo a very caring person, along with her husband and cannot imagine either of them leaving a pet alone. With money and friends like they have surely they would either... Take the dog with them, hire a housekeeper/gardener and they would care for the dog, pay for a professional Kennel to leave the dog at or leave it with a friend to care for. I do not, for one second believe that JLo left her dog alone.
When you post a story such as the JLo abuse of her pet please, JarrahForrester and all other posters, give a link to the source of the story to help us decide for ourselves after reading the report. I have searched and cannot find a story concerning JLo and pet abuse.
Thank you. I didn't realise it was okay to post web sites.
Here's a list out of hundreds of sites on JLo and negative publicity and how she mistreats animals. I saw many references to her abandoning her dog, years ago, but many of them are now removed. Anway, the first one of these is quite specific.
(Can we believe the internet any more than tabloids?) (or: Where there's smoke there's fire?)
Regardless of the story I just think it would be a service to humanity if "JLo" didn't breed

Anyone else noticing how popular 'mystery illness' is at the moment? The yellow wiggle has it, Hinch, and I've just read Mr. Lord of the Dance Michael Flatley has it too! Whats going on?!
Rapper 50 Cent has accused talk show queen Oprah Winfrey of deserting her African-American roots to pander to the middle-aged white female demographic.
Winfrey, who shot to fame starring in 1985 race drama "The Color Purple" has since found huge success with her popular daytime show.
But hip-hop star 50 Cent feels her current status is at the cost of her former beliefs and original fanbase.
He says, "(She) started out with black women's views but has been catering to middle-aged white American women for so long that she's become one herself.
"I think the idea of being publicly noted that she's a billionaire makes (black women) interested in seeing her views. But it's even more exciting to the demographic of white American women she's been aiming at to see that she has the exact same views that they have."
It's not the first time the rapper has hit out at Winfrey -- last month the star joined Ludacris and Ice Cube in criticizing Winfrey's perceived negative attitude towards hip-hop's big names after she refused to have him as a guest on her show.
Hear hear. I sure as heck wouldn't want him on my show (that is, if I had one ). And I'm certain that Oprah wouldn't invite Tom Cruise back to her show anytime soon.
If he (Jackson) really did say that to Oprah, he should go to hell (despite this, he will anyway ). What a disgracefully racist thing to say. Just what are "black" views? Those ships have sailed, and it's time to just get over or live with what happened all those years ago. Sure, there are still a lot of people who are alive today that would remember the sexism and racism that plagued society back then, but times have changed, and all these debates on "black pride" and "white pride" isn't going to make things better. Let's all just hold hands, circle the Earth and celebrate diversity. Oh god, I'm being delirious.
Nervous' Jessica Simpson Tearful After Dolly Folly Singer Pays Tribute To Longtime Idol
WASHINGTON -- Hollywood blogs were abuzz Monday after Sunday night's 29th annual Kennedy Center ceremony that honored movie director Steven Spielberg, singers Dolly Parton and Smokey Robinson, composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and conductor Zubin Mehta.
They were all talking about Jessica Simpson's less-than-stellar performance of Parton's "Nine To Five" hit. Simpson, who wore a revealing black dress and clutched her stomach at times, stumbled over lyrics that were barely muttered in spots. She left the stage in a hurry after the last note dropped, gasping "Dolly, that made me so nervous!" into the mic. It also sounds like she says "you fluster me" shortly after.
Parton looked on and smiled during the performance, and leaned over to whisper to a friend after Simpson exited the stage.
Simpson was in tears when she and the other singers in the tribute came back out.
The Associated Press reported that Simpson, 26, told "Access Hollywood" she "loves" Dolly Parton's 1986 flick "9 to 5" and dreams of working with the country legend.
"That is just something that after that I could die and go to heaven and be just fine," Simpson said.
In response, Parton said Simpson "seems like a sweet girl. I've been asked to do a couple of things with her and someday I'd like to," she said.
Parton, 60, a country singer who has performed for more than four decades, is a Grammy-winner who also has appeared in movies such as "Nine to Five," "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" and "Steel Magnolias." And there is her Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. . .
HI-5 couple Nathan Foley and Kellie Hoggart have called off their marriage, ending one of television's most popular romances.
The children's entertainment group sweethearts were due to marry in March after becoming engaged during a holiday to Fiji last year.
But Confidential can reveal that the pair has split after three years together.
The Sydney-based Hi-5 members could not be reached yesterday, but it's understood their break-up won't affect the future of the wildly popular group, whose program is telecast on Channel 9.
Foley, 27, and Hoggart, 32, have been in the line-up since Hi-5's inception in January 1999, alongside Charli Robinson, Tim Harding, Kathleen de Leon and new fill-in member Sun Park.
In a rare interview about their relationship a year ago, the highly private Hoggart said she and Foley were "very happy and enjoying the moment for as long as we can".
"We're just getting used to it ourselves, but we're so excited," she said.
Hi-5 has sung and danced its way to worldwide acclaim - their program is now shown in more than 80 countries.
The multiple Logie and ARIA award-winning group has also reaped the riches of eight years of touring, DVD sales and international copyright of their TV show.
The fivesome placed eighth on Business Review Weekly's annual list of Australia's top earning entertainers with an income of $15 million last year.
They were still well off the $50 million pulled in by fellow kiddies' group The Wiggles.
A spokeswoman for Hi-5 said yesterday that Foley and Hoggart had "split up a while ago".
"It's a personal matter and there's no further comment."
Lurveit... love your avatar, one of my favourite movie scenes. Sooooooo funny. This in the news...
Actors find skinny fashion disturbing December 11, 2006 - 12:36PM
Hollywood star Kate Winslet says she finds the current fashion for ultra-thin "size zero" models and actresses "unbelievably disturbing".
"It's so disturbing because young girls are impressionable from 11 up to 19 or 20 even; women are very impressionable at those ages," Winslet told BBC television.
"They're trying to figure out who they are, and they want to be loved, and what I resent is that there is an image of perfection that is getting thinner and thinner, and it's truly upsetting to me."
Stick-thin celebrities such as Nicole Richie and Victoria Beckham have been accused of being poor role models for young women and of contributing to a rise in eating disorders. A major fashion event in Madrid banned ultra-thin models from the catwalk earlier this year, and other fashion shows have indicated they plan to do the same.
Winslet, whose films include Titanic and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, said it was "unbelievably disturbing what's going on at the moment".
The British actress, whose latest film is the upcoming romantic comedy The Holiday, said she refuses to allow any magazines featuring the rake-thin models into her house for fear her six-year-old daughter, Mia, will see them.
"It's only a matter of time before she becomes aware of it, and it frightens the life out of me," she said.
Winslet, 31, said she hoped her success would be an inspiration to others.
"I hope that in some small way I'm able to say 'I'm a normal person, I'm doing all right, I've got a lovely husband and children and I didn't lose weight to find those things, and those things are what should be important'."
Doctor Who star Billie Piper believes that Victoria Beckham should not be a teenage role model because of her tiny frame.
Piper, who herself suffered from anorexia, told Glamour magazine: "I think the whole size zero debate is disgusting.
In the interview, the actress described the insidious psychological affects of the disease.
"It's mad. You've never been weaker but your brain is at its strongest.
"Your brain is talking to your body and they're no longer working in unison.
"Your brain is like 'I disapprove of you today, body'. Your body is like, 'Please feed me I'm so hungry', and your brain is like 'No. You're bad'. I think everyone has it in them."
I find Victoria Beckham revoltingly thin. Apparently her husband has said he doesn't like 'fat' women. I expect 'fat' in his and Victoria's books means 55kg or over. Thank goodness they've only had sons! How superficial are some people, OMG. Victoria's breasts do not match the rest of her body and definitely look fake. Hugging her must be like hugging a bundle of sharp sticks The sad thing is she equates skinny-ness with beauty.
