Sandra Bullock attributes her healthy food attitude to the fact that she takes one day a week to eat whatever she wants. The "All About Steve" star loves food and doesn't seem to be super picky when it comes to how she indulges."I start Friday night and I end Saturday night. But it is not so regimented. I'll make lists of what I want to eat this week or next week. I was in the store Marfa and they had this dark chocolate with bacon in it so I've gotta try that! I eat really well because I can afford to. Like last night I had brown rice and black beans and some steamed vegetables so today I'm going to have all kinds of good stuff! I love sweets, like Viennese pastry, raw cookie dough, or a nice bowl of Lucky Charms with milk that I eat in bed watching SNL. That's heaven right there!"

Oprah smoked crack?
Her ex-lover (and yes, it's a guy) reveals to the National Enquirer that Momma O smoked some crack cocaine with him in the past.
Oprah herself has confessed in the past that she briefly used cocaine back in the 70s, though she blamed it on her "desperate obsession" with an ex who was a drug user. However, Randolph Cook says Winfrey was using drugs and smoking crack back in the 80s!
Well, I think she would have been thinner in the 80s had that been in the case. And I also think any sources would have been able to go to media more legit than the National Enquirer if there were any validity to this story.
