It was a shocking weekend for many when news of the untimely deaths of comedian Bernie Mac and music legend Isaac Hayes came out. Mac had been in the hospital fighting pneumonia for a little while. His people had said that he was getting better and was looking forward to going home. Hayes was found unresponsive next to his still-running treadmill. His doctor said that he had apparently suffered a fatal stroke. He had also suffered a stroke back in 2006.
About to get kicked out? Turn to Trump!How's this for a weird twist to Ed McMahon's home foreclosure woes...apparently Donald Trump has offered to buy the home and lease it to the former Carson sidekick, effectively making him Ed's landlord. The strange part, the two men don't even know each other. Trump said that when he had heard the story he thought "it would be an honor" to help. My guess is that the honor to Trump is the publicity he's drumming up.
(full disclosure - I was a student at the Ed McMahon School of Mass Communications at Quinnipiac University, Ed and I go way back)
No 90210 for Tori
It looks like there won't be a homecoming party for Donna Martin in the upcoming Beverly Hills 90210 update on The CW Network after all. Tori Spelling was reportedly upset about the fact that her pay, $10,000 - $20,000 per episode, was dwarfed by the alleged compensation for fellow returnees Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth, reported to be between $35,000 and $50,000 per episode. Tori apparently demanded equal pay, the network said no, Tori walked.
Quick Hits
* It looks like wedding bells will be ringing for Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi this weekend. According to US Weekly, the two will marry in a "small, intimate ceremony" in California.
* Blogs are buzzing about the rumored breakup of John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston. The two haven't been photographed together in weeks, John is on vacay in Mexico while Jen is back in LA working, and a "source" says that she is already seeing someone new. Well, with that evidence it must be true.
* Dark Knight star Christian Bale is off the hook. He will not face charges in the alleged assault involving his mother and sister. Officials say there was simply not enough evidence.
