Quick Hit Friday . . .

“You got a joint man? It’d be a lot cooler if you did,” - Matthew McConaughey, ‘Dazed and Confused’


That movie is terrifically underrated and it might be McConaughey’s first and best role to date, although how much of it was purely acting is certainly debatable.

Anyway, I’ve got tons of obligations this weekend – classes and parties and chores – but before I hit the door by 4:10 p.m, let’s look at the hard stories of the week such as:

Lindsay Lohan surrendered Tuesday for a 90-day jail sentence that is likely to be whittled down by overcrowding and other credits.

Lohan was sentenced to jail, three months in rehab and increased scrutiny by probation officials on July 6 after Lohan violated her probation by missing mandatory alcohol education classes.

Her lawyer – Shawn Chapman Holley – was her first visitor, and told People magazine: “Understandably, Lindsay's having a difficult time adjusting as it would be for anyone . . . There were some tears."


Unfortunately, Lohan tried to bottle and drink her tears because they smelled like vodka, however, prison guards ultimately restrained her.

A temporary restraining order was granted to Jennifer Aniston this week against a man who authorities allege traveled cross-country in a delusional attempt to marry her.

Court documents show that police detained Jason R. Peyton last week after finding him with a sharp object, duct tape and love notes to the "Friends" star. The 24-year-old was placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold by Los Angeles police.

The court filings also stated that Peyton has said he won't stop his pursuit of Aniston.


Peyton would if he watched ‘The Bounty Hunter.’ Or ‘Love Happens.’ Or ‘Rumor Has It.’ Or . . . really any of her movies outside of ‘The Good Girl.’

The cast of "Jersey Shore" went on a mini-strike this week as they refused to shoot scenes for a third season of the MTV series but then later reached a deal with MTV to continue the series, according to reports.

The cast will now reportedly earn between $20,000 - $30,000 per episode.


The cast had originally asked to be paid in tanning beds, hair gel, and waxing strips because “that’s as good – no better than money - yo!”

New York City police arrested rapper-actor Ice-T on accusations of driving with a suspended license this week.

Police stopped him for not wearing a seat belt, and ran a check and discovered his license was suspended and he had expired insurance. Ice-T was taken into custody and released soon afterward.

But he was not happy about it, and Twittered afterwards: "Some punk bitch rookie cop named Fisher #10026 made the arrest of his bullshit career today. Arresting the Notorious Ice-T for no seat belt."


I believe that Ice T is suffering from delusions of grandeur, and besides, is there anything less gangster than being arrested for not wearing a seatbelt? Maybe jaywalking.

Katy Perry unveiled the cover of her upcoming album this week: an image pulled from a recently completed Will Cotton painting of Perry lying nude on a cotton-candy cloud.

"I have decided for this to be just the album cover — no print, no nothing, no 'Katy Perry,' " she added. "Hopefully they know it's me by the actual picture."

The album notes will also smell like cotton candy when opened, Perry announced.


Perry didn’t announce, however, if the album will be as sticky as she often appears to be.

"Victoria's Secret" model Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom recently were married in a secret ceremony, their reps confirmed this week.


I suppose if I was marrying Bloom I would keep it a secret too.

As always, let's end with a gold image or two:



One a bit high brow and the other a little tackier, however, I refuse to discriminate. So, enjoy the range of differences today, don't get bogged down by the heat and . . . Happy Friday!

  8. I've seen Dazed And COnfused, and I'm pretty sure McConaughey WASN'T acting, lol.

    BTW - NO ONE purchase Katy Perry's album. I want her to become destitute so she has to pose for Playboy...My mind works in mysterious ways, but NOT like hers apparently does. Russell BRAND ? C'mon !!!

    Happy Friday!!

     
  11. I just compared a friend of mine to Matthew McConaughey's Dazed and Confused character the other day.

    What? You mean simply crying isn't enough to get a jail sentence thrown out? There goes my strategy for what I'll do if I ever run afoul of the law.

    Ice T clearly thinks it's still 1992 (or whenever he released the song 'Cop Killer').

    It's surprising that Aniston didn't just marry the guy as long as he was willing to impregnate her. Chances like that don't come along very often.

    Katy Perry's video for California Gurls (terrible song title by the way) is what I hope Heaven looks like.
