Since tonight marks the episode of "Teen Mom: Unseen Moments" I decided to do a little research on hot media item Debra Danielson and Farrah Abraham. Not about the case mind you, thats not due for an update til the end of the month, but on them as people and I see conflicting ideas. I came across a blog where in Feb of '09 Farrah and her mom helped out homeless pregnant women by holding a baby shower. Farrah was due two weeks after the event. MTV cameras were indeed there according to the blog, and the show hadn't yet been named. The blog of Lydia House (the orginization) is linked by the title.
Mother works two jobs at the same company. This is shown by Linkd and her resume. Thats how come they've got a nice house. She's been working both deparments the same amount of time.

Rats and Lohans
Hey all. Sorry for not posting yesterday or sunday, so you guys get a double post today. In Australia and London a TV broadcaster is getting fined for "animal cruelty". Here's what happened according to a news article from Reuters (title linked). Italian Chef Gina D'Acampo killed and then cooked a rat on the reality TV show "I'm a Celebrity....Get Me Out of Here!". The rat was stabbed with a knife before being cooked. According to reports, the rat took 1 minute to die which caused 'unnecessary pain and suffering' to the rat. Now, to us here in the US who are used to food challenges, or have worked in labs that have animal specimens this doesn't seem such a big deal. Seems almost ludacris in fact, but what we don't realize is that in the UK and Austrailia ALL animals are protected by 'Cruelty to Animals Act'. The broadcaster had been given permission to use and kill the rat, but he didn't realize that the rat taking a minute to die after being stabbed was against the law. He was fined around 2.6k plus an additional cost of 2.1k for legal stuff.
So, as tweeted by TMZ and as seen on the second to latest episode of "What the Buck" on YouTube Lindsay Lohan is asking "Clean House" star Nisse Nash to help her organize her home. Viewers of The Insider got a sneak peek into Lindsay's LA apartment and the sheer amount of stuff she has. One of the questions posed is is Lindsay a hoarder? The answer is no according to Nisse's expert friends. ANd anyone who has seen the TV show "Hoarders" would also be able to tell the difference (myself included). Lindsay has a sheer amount of stuff, sure. But its very very organized-most hoarders don't even have that abilitly. Here's another peek.

3 for 1-"Lost" Questions; NASCAR Roll-Over and Carrie Underwood+Queen Latifah on 'Pants on the Ground'
Hey all. I've decided to do a special 3 for 1 post today because I did not do a real celeb posting on friday. I may mention TV show "Lost" first in the heading but the title is linked to the NASCAR Roll-over so I'm starting there.
After viewing the YouTube clip, Jill George, driver of the 48 car, hits the apron on the turn of the fourth corner in today's NASCAR race and then flips over his car. He walks away fine.
Second up, the "Lost" questions. I personally never watched the show, but my parents did pretty religiously and I know some of my friends are quite obsessed. So when I came across this article, I couldn't help reading and reporting. This article tries to either answer or explain questions the actors have, such as whats with the numbers or what is the smoke monster. This is because the show is entering its final season, so fans (and the actors) are hoping to find out whats going on.
Last but not least, since the Superbowl is tomorrow (Sunday) this week has been a lot of conferences. On Thursday on one of the pre-game conferences (I believe CBS or some channel), Carrie Underwood who is to sing the National Anthem and Queen Latifah, who is to sing America the Beautiful, were asked a few questions. One TV reporter asks Carrie about "American Idol" audtionee Larry Platt's 'Pants on the Ground'.
Watch what she very classily says and Queen Latifah's response.

Not a Celeb News-But Interesting About Adoptin+Celebs
Hey all. Since I am doing a constant "segment" about the MTV shows "16 and pregnant" and "Teen Mom" [check back later for links to the shows web pages] I decided to take advantage of the resource SeededBuzz gives me (currently in beta stage). I went to the broad category of "Entertainment" where I narrowed down to "Celebrity". One of the first 'seeds' as they call it was about how DMC (Daryll McDaniels) of rap group Run DMC was adopted. He did not realize he was adopted until he was 35 years old and has now made a great bond and relationship with the adoption community. Author Kim King of the post in the blog "Grown in my Heart"; linked by the title, talks a little about her experience being in Run DMC's music video that talks about adoption and the message behind the song. Ms. King has adopted a daughter as well as been adopted herself. Its a very inspirtational story. You should check it out!
This is realated to the shows, in my opinon, because Tyler and Catelynn decided to adopt out as well, and thus are part of teh adoption community. I feel that pregnant teens should read up on adoption and see what a great experience it can be, and the relationship formed between all parents and the kids.

More "Teen Mom" Gossip
As I was looking for some more information I came upon an article in a Nebraska paper. This article also talks about the officer coming across Deborah with knives. He steadily walked closer, it appears, as he asked her to drop the knives. She refused until he was within 3 feet of an investigative reporter states with his service weapon pulled out.
On the Farrah episode of "16 and Pregnant", at mark 35:54 Deborah says that Farrah is "out of control". Seems to me that its mama whose out of control, keep watching to see what I mean (it happens at the 36:22 mark)! On this reunion show, hosted by Dr. Drew, he asks Deborah about the smack. You won't believe her answer (its at the 05:36 mark)! "I don't even know that I hit her..." to which Farrah starts laughing.
You don't know huh? Well..check out that glance to see where Farrah was! Its on MTV b*tch. Gives you some more respect for Farrah doesn't it? She's stilly annoying, but she's not mean.

Taylor Swift's Label Prez Defends Her Grammy Performance
Today I got a Tweet from TMZ about Taylor Swift. I did not watch the Grammy's, but have heard the hype and bashing of country starlet Taylor Swift's performance. It provided a link their source, which I have title linked. They linked to TV Guide.
The story is that Taylor's record label president is defending her performance. He claims that the off-pitch (evidence below-courtesy of YouTube) performance was due to technical error of equipment, not skill area of the artist. He states that Taylor is the voice of the generation is a very talented artist. TV guide takes this information from The Associate Press which they provide a link for you. I on the other hand think that she is not a physical voice, but a lyrical voice of the generation. Some of her songs actually have decent messages IMO such as "Fifteen". I have been there, and almost done that. My boyfriend at the time told me he loved me and I believed him, but he left me soon after going to college-he did change his mind. From what his little sister tells me he is engaged (to girlfriend #2-i was first) now.
This is the Grammy Performance. As you can hear (if you can bear it) once Stevie Nicks comes out onto stage, Taylor becomes wildy off-key in their duet.
I could not find any information or a response to the media on Taylor Swift's website or her YouTube channel.
Taylor appeared on the Ellen Show via video camera to record her Grammy experience, but there was no mention or talk about her performance.

"Teen Mom" Incident Report!
I plan on dpoing updates regarding the "Teen Mom" Incident and so as I was searching I come upon a blog which references "Radar" and so I go there since I had never heard of them and lo-and behold I find a link to the incident report! Now you can look at it too! Just click the title.
A good point to mention now is that I was reading the comments on Radar and someone made a good and rather valid point. That point was that Amber hit and choked Gary on the show "Teen Mom" while Leah was mere feet away. Amber has not been given a bad rap or really been discussed. Why do you think this? Is it because Gary is her ex/fiance and not her mother, is it beacuse she was defending her very ill dad, is it because she apologized on the reunion show and feels remorse? What do you think?

Leif Garrett has been arrested
As I'm trying to actually make some money off this blog I figured the best way to go about getting a good start would to be create a Twitter account for my blog in order to follow (and get sent to my phone) some of the best Celeb News outlets. All day I have been recieving Tweets from TMZ and Perez amongst some more minor ones (ahem CMT). For awhile I was going to do a Katy Perry story, but after recieving three messages in a row from TMZ, I went with the very recent Leif Garrett story.
According to TMZ (linked by the title; click it!), Garrett was arrested Monday morning in LA for possesion of an uncontrolled substance. He was arrested in the Metrolink station, a place he's been arrested before but that was for riding without a ticket. At that time he was found to have marijuana in his shoe. Garrett is due back in court at the end of the month.
Garrett is not new to the law system, according to the LA Times, Garrett has been arrested for other drug charges as well as DUI charges. Oddly enough MTV gives a more thorough backround information on previous arrests than the news sites I've looked off. Just click on the acronym above to see for yourself!
Garrett was once a teen heartthrob back in the 70s and 80s and is now most notably seen in truTVs "Smoking Gun: Worlds Dumbest....". According to People Magazine [Online], Garret has been in some films recently I guess so I took the liberty to see what he's done recently by going to IMDB. To see his acheivements, click here.
Also, don't forget to check out my corresponding vlog (to be posted later tonight) Pei's Penny Thoughts on YouTube and comment/answer the questions I pose to you! Also, please help me spread the word!

"Teen Mom" Reunion
Here I am sitting on my bed at 10:35PM at night watching the reunion show. It is hosted by none other than Dr. Drew, most known for "Celebrity Rehab" and now "Sex Addict".
So far Maci has been spoken with. She and Ryan are split and Ryan was just as much a douche bag as he was during both shows that he was on.
Amber and Gary were on and they only use condoms during sex (not a smart idea) and she thinks she's pregnant again and Gary is already being an ass about it.
They just finished talking to Tyler and Catelynn who are still engaged, but not planning to marry until much later after college and such. Brandon and Teresa sent a letter and pictures to Dr.Drew/MTV with an update of Carly and her first Christmas and OH MY GOSH Carly looks so much like Catelynn, and is so cute. Now they are talking to April (Catelynn's mom). April is starting to opening up and being accepting of their decision, and even Butch is being flexible about it.
Now they are talking to Farrah. No mention of the incident with the mother, but she is seeming to have grown up some. Realizing her mistakes. Her voice is still as annoying as hell though. She is spending more time with Farrah. She wants a partner, but doesn't think there is anyone for her.
Now they are asking each other questions of each other. Some basic questions nothing to elaborate.
Don't forget to tune in next Tuesday for "Teen Mom: Unseen Moments" also airing on MTV at 10.

"Teen Mom" Mother Arrested Recently
Sunday mid-afternoon my roommate came back to our apartment on campus. We started chit-chatting and somehow the subject got onto MTV's hit show "Teen Mom" (don't miss the reunion show tonight 2/2/2010 on MTV at 10PM Eastern Time); a follow up of the girls from their "16 and Pregnant" series which has a new season debuting soon (as in Febuary 16th at 10PM ET). H told me that she was excited for the reunion show and that she had read on TMZ that the mother of Farrah Abraham had been arrested for domestic violence. According to that story, on Jan 20th Deborah Danielson was charged in court in Iowa, a week after attacking Farrah. She is due back later for another hearing.
The attack happend in Council Bluffs, and Farrah told police that Deborah had choked and hit her on Saturday. According to TMZ, police arrested Deborah after observing cuts on the right side of Farrah's mouth, seemingly to support Farrah's story. There are some minor updates to their story here on the TMZ website.
Another mostly respectably media outlet has also reported on the incident with some more detail. The NY Daily News leads us to the original article found in Council Bluff's paper, the Daily Nonpareil. According to the Daily, the alercation was caused by Deborah throwing a shirt at Farrah and it landing near Sofia causing Farrah to freak out. Thats when Deborah got physical. You can read the full article here at the Daily News, which even tells of the MTV camera's catching a smack to the mouth in a car argument..hmmm.
I took the liberty to go directly to the source, a Council Bluffs, Iowa paper, the Nonpareil, which first reported the incident. The Nonpareil says that Deborah threw the shirt at Farrah which landed on or near the baby while the two were arguing about childcare issues. When the shirt was thrown and when it landed it caused the baby to cry (I don't blame the baby) and Farrah was arguing with her mother about that incident. According to Farrah it as this point in time when Deborah grabbed her by the throat. Farrah pushed/slapped her mother's hand away which is when, alleges Farrah, that Deborah smacked her in the right side of the face. The full report can be found here at the Nonpareil website.
I was lucky enough to come across an update while looking for the original article. This update gives us fans of the show (or nosy bloggers..which reminds me I should check Perez) more information regarding what was in occurance when police officers arrived. According to records the paper was able to obtain, Deborah was wielding two knives and refused to put them down until the officer took out his gun. The story can be found here on the site. As expected, because of domestic charges, Deborah is on a noncontact policy. During the incident both women were calling the other a liar-to be expected.
Miracuously, it doesn't appear the Perez has heard of the charges, or if he has he's chosen to keep silent for once, close to home perhaps?
Of course what kind of a blogger would I be if I didn't go straight to the main source? MTV itself to see if I can dig up any juice or anything. If I can't find anything, maybe you can? Just click on blog title! -ETA: After a few minutes of searching I could not find any information, can/did you?-
So, what do you think about this incident? Was/Is it justified? Too overdone? Is it even real? Leave a comment with your opinion!
Please?
