Bowersox Delays Ladies Group

As tonight is the 3rd installment of "16 and Pregnant" on MTV, I have decided to do a quick little update on Deborah Danielson (mother of Season 1's Farrah Abraham) and her plea/court appearance. Then I will do a sneak peek of tonights episode, and then onto the gossip.

According to a blog here at Examiner.com which took its information from RadarOnline states that Deborah is trying to arrange a plea bargain without having to deal with the drama of a court room and its procedures. A preliminary hearing was scheduled for Feb 26th, and TMZ.com has some details. According the site, Deborah entered a plea bargain and recieved a short 30 day jail sentence and the return of knives that were seized in the incident. Read the full bit here.

Lohan Takes It Personal

So, before I begin today's topic, let me start by saying don't forget to watch episode #2 of MTV's "16 and Pregnant" airing tonight at 10PM/9C. Tonight we focus on a young girl, Nikkole, whose boyfriend and mother fight while she's in labor. According to the sneak peek here, it looks like even boyfriend's mama takes the pregnant teen's mother's side. Come join me to watch and discuss on LIVE video chat on Skype at peispennythoughts. If you don't have Skype its a quick download here and if you don't have a camera or microphone thats fine, you can still see and hear me as long as you have speakers.

Ok, today's topic is the fact that when starlet Lindsay Lohan was complimented by a young fan of her work in "The Parent Trap", a movie Lindsay did when she was 11. When she recieved this compliment, according to PerezHilton.com, Lindsay had a break down. After recieving the compliment, Lindsay went sobbing into the arms of a handler. Also, while at the club she smoked and drank and asked for the cabana curtains to be closed because there was too much paparazzi. She even dissed the DJ saying that ex Samantha Ronson was better. Check the story out here.

Later on there will be a Monday topic, but no Sunday topic.

Jon and Kate Back(With Eight?)

Now before we get to the reason you're here, lets get to the real truthfeul reason. To breifly dicuss the first pregnant teen, now mother, of MTV's "16 and Pregnant". The second season kicked off last night at 10PM/9C on MTV with the story of Jenelle, a 16 year old from North Carolina. She seemed okay at first, seemed to be smart but hey, I should have seen the signs. Her boyfriend is an alcoholic, was once a model but is now flat broke and lives 4 hours away. You can watch the latest episode here plus bonus material.

Hmm..news seems to be sooo sloow and lacking today. Ah, something from the New York Post. Title-linked, of course. Accoriding to the Post, Jon Goesselin has settled a lawsuit with TV Channel TLC (Tender Loving Care) which then leaves the air clear for a [triumphant?] return to cable TV. Both RadarOnline and TLC confirm to the Post that the Gosselins have and have had a contract with the station. It appears that Kate and Jon are working things out so that "Kate Plus 8" can go on as planned.

In the Gossip Spirit

Since tonight is the premiere of MTV's second season of "16 and Pregnant" [ join me on Skype at peispennythoughts tonight at 10pM/9PMC to chat about what we see] I've decided to do a very gossip-y random post about the the "8 Types of People that Belong on Twitter" which was an article tweeted by none other than Mr. Perez Hilton of PerezHilton.com. Also, since I didn't do an article yesterday, I shall do a second one today. I didn't do one yesterday because it was a national holiday here in America (President's Day) and so I had no school and therefore was at my boyfriends. I'm not sure on my second articles topic just yet. So I will get started with the type of twitterers.

This list is composed by Inc.com (title linked) and tweeted by Perez Hilton:

• Type number one is that of "The Personality". According to Inc.com these are people like celebs (they reference Perez and Oprah amongst a few others) as well as the big shots of big name brands (they suggest the CEO of Zappos.com). These are people who have distinctive "voice" and they're tweets are always meaningful in some way or another.
• Type number two is that of "The Guide". These are people whose specific role is to search out other tweets in the purpose of finding answers to certain questions. They reference a Blackberry-related company that troubleshoots blackberrys.
• Type number three is "The Brand Watch-Dog". These are people who work for a specific company and then are on the look-out for questions about their company or a product the company provides. Once one of these wondering tweets are spotted by the watch-dog, he or she responds personally to each tweet.
• Type number four is very similar to that of the watch-dog but is in fact quite different. This is "The Customer Support Rep". These are people who are answering questions in other sites, and use Twitter as a another way of reaching the customer. Often thes people are just regular people who have resolved issues on their own.
• Type number five is that of "The Publisher". These are people who use Twitter to give the public an idea of their company or news stories. Often new stories are published first on Twitter before hitting major magazines, newspapers and other media.
• Type number six is that of "The Promotion Channel". As the name clearly indicates, these are Twittereers who use their Twitter for promoting items and such. But besides from the commerece (Amazon is the chosen subject) spammers can run promotion channels too so be careful.
• Type number seven is that of "The Conversationalist". This person is someone who responds personally to direct Tweets, or Tweets in general. They build loyalty and friendship with their followers and are an active member of the Twitter community.
• And last but not least is that of type nu,ber eight; that of "The Curious". I actually happen to fall under this category. We are people who don't post often but are members in order to spot out new information about brands, or celebs or news.

Topic number two is.....that of the recent engagement of two fairly known celebs. Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have gotten engaged according to this article in US Weekly. Monday night Madden Tweeted about the engagement. I browsed but could not find the specific Tweet. On "The Late Show with David Letterman" set to air Friday, Richie confirms the engagement. Letterman asks if they are married to which she replies 'no', so he asks if they are engaged to which she replies 'recently actually' according to the magazine. Richie's father is the infamous Lionel Richie and Madden is from a rock band that was a hit when I was back in high school- Good Charlotte. Ritchie and Madden have two kids together, Harlow (2 years) and Sparrow aka Row (5 months) together. However, when Ritchie appeared on Regis and Kelly she was not wearing a ring and did not talk about the engagement but she has been seen with a large stone.

Two deaths and a close call

To start off, what did you guys think of the unseen moments special? Some of that was really sweet! Are you guys excited to watch the premiere of the new season of "16 and pregnant" which happens TUESDAY!! If so, come join me on Skype at peispennythoughts to watch and discuss during commercials!

OK, so I didn't do any item yesterday (Wednesday 2/10/10) because my college got closed during my first class and since the roads weren't awful yet, I went over to my boyfriends. But because I shorted you lovely people, I'm doing two topics (one for today, one for yesterday) and a BONUS story!!!

I guess I'll start with the earliest item. This is title-linked. On Tuesday  night, Captain Phil Harris of the wildly popular Discovery Channel reality show "Deadliest Catch" passed away. MSN reports that the Captain was 53. According to family, Harris suffered a "massive stroke" on January 29th while the fishing boat was harbored in the bay. He was then sent to Anchorage for immediate surgery. The worst part about this death is that in the past few weeks, Harris seemed to be turning around. On a posting made last Saturday night, he was said to be talking to friends and family and making the most progress thus far. And then, on Feb 3, his sons wrote that their dad was making tremendous progress, squeezing their hands and such but that they were being cautious. Apparently, not that much later, the captain passed.

To continue with the sadness and mourning I bring you the news of the death of British "rebel" designer Alexander McQueen. This news is brought to you by Yahoo in conjuntion with AFP. McQueen was found dead at his London home according to the article. This death appears to have been a suicide. McQueen was 40 and found hanging. Scotland Yard is not treating this case as suspicious. If one wanted to check out his designs at his website, they are greeted by a message of grief and concern for the family's privacy. The designer was a four time winner of a prestigous fashion award, was partner with Gucci on one line and widely praised by other designers. Even when they didn't know it. Or so they say. One of the few reasons most people in America know McQueen is from Project Runway Season 5 when designer Kenley designed a feather dress very very similar to McQueen's feather wedding dress that was seen in his Spring 2008 show. This comes 3 years after McQueens close friend and fashion icon Isabella Blow comitted sucide and just a short week following the death of his mother.

Following up on the sad, but not quite so depressing is news of Alec Baldwin. Little brother Stephen appeared on Season 1 of Celebrity Apprentice, but Alec is by far the most successful of the two acting brothers. Alec is the star of hit tv show "30 Rock" as an egotistical executive of a TV show and the star of the new movie "It's Complicated". Alec was rushed to a hospital after police got a call from daugher Ireland saying she was worried about his health and safety according to Yahoo in conjuntion with Reuters. The celeb was taken by paramedics to a hospital near to his Manhatten home early Thursday where he was released a short hour later. Alec has been in the news before, but that was to apologize about a drunken call he'd made to daugher Ireland where he called her some nasty things and that had been sent to broadcasting. He and ex-wife have been in a custody battle for Ireland. This was just a misunderstanding and the star was allowed to leave shortly after being taken to the hospital and go to work. Alec is set to co-host the 82nd Academy Awards alongside Steve Martin.

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.

"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?
