Hugh Jackman brown bags it

90325p6_jackman_b_gr_02

Hugh Jackman, song and dance man, and actor, kept with his friendly rapport with New York’s paparazzi. I don’t know many that would have a smile on their face while being asked all sorts of inane questions.

And he may be scrubbin’ it, but he still looks like a gentleman. Must just be the way he carries himself.

Kathy Griffin and Paris are BFF!

fp_2032422_hilton_paris_scj_032509

Oh goodness! This HAS to be for Kathy Griffin’s show, My Life on the D List. Earlier today she let everyone know that she and Paris Hilton were hanging at the pool, and then later, were headed to paparazzi plagued, Robertson Blvd for some shopping at Kitson and Lisa Kline.

And here’s the proof! Holy cow! Paris is totally playing up her “public persona” even stopping by a metal sign to check her reflection. Kathy seems to have picked at least one little bad habit, though, flashing the paps to show her panties matched her new BFF’s outfit.

I can’t believe Kathy’s outfit. It’s so over the top. Ruffles, neon pink, aqua blue, bra straps showing, HUGE sunglasses and a bow in her hair. She’s either cutting edge, or straight out of an 80s bubblegum music video. And I LOVE IT!

I can’t wait until this is on the air!

Team Astana is cursed

team astana tomas vaitkus subaru stolen

OK.  Earlier this year, Team Astana had 4 of their time trial bikes stolen, including Lance Armstrong’s Trek.  Next, Lance took a tumble in Spain leading to his surgery today for a broken clavicle.

Today, it was announced that “Tomas Vaitkus‘ Subaru wheels (yellow) were stolen last night in Oliva, Spain. Real bummer.”   Real Bummer is right!  IF anyone knows anything, about the missing Subaru with the “yellow” wheels, contact Team Astana, after you call the police, of course.

WTF is up in the cylcing community? After the Tour of California, David Zabriskie had found that his home in Utah was robbed, and his cars and bikes stolen.

Lance Armstrong in Recovery from Surgery

Lance Armstong presurgery earlier today

After finding that his break was not a “simple” two piece break, but rather four pieces, Lance Armstrong’s 90 minute surgery turned into three hours! In that time doctors put in a five inch plate and 12 screws into Lance Armstrong’s collarbone (clavicle). OUCH!

But don’t worry, Lance’s manager, Mark Higgins, “Higs”, told everyone (via Lance’s twitter) “All went well. Lance is in recovery. Same guy just 12 screws in his collarbone. Higs”

Armstrong’s Austin based surgeon, Dr. Doug Elenz spoke about the surgery for the broken clavicle on the Team Astana Cycling site

“If you had to pin me down, I’d say it was an eight,” he said when asked how difficult the surgery was on a scale of 1-10. The surgery, which normally takes less than 90 minutes for a simple fracture, took slightly less than three hours and also included working on some of Armstrong’s abrasions from the crash. “No one’s ever accused me of being the fastest surgeon in the world,” Dr. Elenz quipped, “I think we should be expedient, methodical and get it right the first time.”

Rest up Lance! Listen to the doctors… who am I kidding. Just get better, ok?! Or better yet,
RUB SOME DIRT ON IT AND GET UP YOU BABY!!! ;-)

Where the Wild Things Are

I must be the only person in America who never read “Where the Wild Things Are”. But after watching the clip above, I just might have to go and see it. Looks cute, but not in an annoying “children’s movie” sort of way.
