The weight of the world

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden kicked off a new fundraiser for the Richie-Madden Children's Foundation at a Marble Slab Creamery yesterday in LA. With their new effort, if you text the world "child" to 90999, a $5 donation charge will be sent to the foundation and automatically added to your phone bill. While at the event, Nicole and Joel couldn't help but gush about their inspiration for all the giving back — Harlow.

Donatella Versace attended Marc Anthony's surprise birthday party for his 40th birthday at NYC's Bowery Hotel on Sunday. The designer brought along her 22 year old daughter, Allegra Beck Versace, who has made headlines for the past few years due to her major eating disorder.

Donatella and Allegra released a joint statement last year admitting Allegra's health problem, and said she was being treated at UCLA's hospital for anorexia. The anorexia announcement came days after a tab claimed Allegra's weight had dropped to 70 pounds.

I am pleased to know she has been seen out and about. I certainly hope she is receiving the proper help. =o)

Bloomberg LP, whose best-selling financial news and data terminals are ubiquitous on Wall Street, is trying to reassure jittery employees that it will weather the financial storm after the failure of one major client and the sale of another.

I love when the cast of a show acts like one great big family - the kind that shows love by making slanderous comments and jockeying for position. Felicity Huffman, 45, recently squashed rumors of a Eva Longoria pregnancy by saying that she was just fat.

"She's just fat, that's all there is to it!"

My guess is she now weighs 100 lbs and this is considered fat in Hollywood.

So far Sarah Palin is getting an "F" with celebrities. I think about 20 people have come out and bashed her. Lindsay and Sam posted a rant on Linz's official MySpace page denouncing the VP candidate and calling her a "narrow minded, media obsessed homophobe."

They further discussed Sarah's lack of qualifications, once again, in a surprisingly intelligent manner. Samantha must have a bit of a brain upstairs handling the writing duties for the duo.
"I find it quite interesting that a woman who now is running to be second in command of the United States, only 4 years ago had aspirations to be a television anchor. Which is probably all she is qualified to be… Also interesting that she got her passport in 2006.. And that she is not fond of environmental protection considering she’s FOR drilling for oil in some of our protected land…. Well hey, if she wants to drill for oil, she should DO IT IN HER OWN backyard. This really shows me her complete lack of real preparation to become the second most powerful person in this country."
BAHAHAHAHAHA!

Crazy celebrity diet...

Boiled Egg Only Diet - During the filming of "Cold Mountain," there were rumors that one famous actress on set ate only boiled eggs. She would rise in the morning and eat one and then have one or two at the end of the day. That was her entire diet! Could this be Renee Zellweger??

Master Cleanse / Lemonade Diet - Water mixed with maple syrup, lemon juice and cayenne pepper. Beyonce admitted following this regimen for two weeks to drop 20 pounds for the film "Dreamgirls." Jared Leto used it to shed about 30 pounds he gained to play Mark Chapman in the new film "Chapter 27."

WHAT!
