Show Notes from Week #9 - March 19th 2010

Usually when the words ‘Cheating’ and ‘Hollywood’ you rolls your eyes and think about the typical couples we’ve heard of over the years.. and most of the time it leads to a nasty divorce where the blood sucking cheater milks their soon to be significant other for as much cash as possible. Earlier this week a Montreal woman Michelle Bombshell McGee came out of the woodwork and claimed she had a year long relationship with Jesse James. You might recognize that name… he’s married to Sandra Bullock! Now this claim has yet to be determined to be true or not as of yet.. but I’m going on the bullshit side of things. Mainly because Bombshell McGee has said she grew up Amish until the age of 16… and now.. she’s covered in tattoos, has a feature profile on an adult webcam site… And also this week Jessie apologized to his wife Sandra for cheating on her twice during their five year marriage with a California model and with bombshell mcgee… Sandra has moved out of their California home which is a good signal they’re heading for splittsville…

According to a recent report out of the UK, Simon Cowell has become a huge target for Cyber criminals. And, Cowell has now called upon the FBI to help him find out who is leaking songs and content within his record label, Syco. Last Summer, upcoming songs from Alexandre Burke and Leona Lewis were leaked in advanced of the actual release date which resulted in a huge loss of profit. This isn’t new in the music business unfortunately.. There are people out there that are willing to make a quick buck or two by leaking work from recording companies from around the world. In this age of iPhones and teency tiny tech toys getting your hands on leaked materials gets easier and easier. A good way to avoid people leaking music and courting a huge profit loss, just release the music as it’s completed. Rather than waiting for months to put the CD in stores…

Wasn’t it just a few week ago we were all talking about how Tiger Woods was going to quote take his time to get back into golf? It appears a few months of “therapy” and a break from golf has given him a lot of time to think about what he has done to his family. And, apparently he’s ready to get back on the green. companies are lining up to fill up his pockets with sponsorship cash and CBS is glowing with the face they’re going to be pulling in the ratings cuz everyone wants to see how Tiger will play. It’s also nice to see Tiger’s wife Elin has been kind enough to return his clubs, even though they may be a bit bent from the late night charade from a few months back. The week long golf spectacular known as the Masters set to take place next month starting April 5th

Hundreds of people including fans and family gathered in Toronto last week to say their final goodbyes to Corey Haim. New reports coming out are saying Haim was taking up to 85 pills a day…. The coroners report detailing what really killed Haim is expected to be released over the next few weeks…

It’s everyone’s worst nightmare – you’re on stage at a big event and your shirt rips exposing your boob or for a guy – you walk the wrong way and your pants split open…. Just hope you’re not going commando that day! Katherine Hy-gle one of the stars of Greys Anatomy had a “wardrobe malfunction” of her own…. She was on stage accepting Female Award of the Year at the ShoWest Awards when her dress strap suddenly broke.. She caught the strap in time from permanently imprinting her boob on the internet… She was definitely red faced and thanked Billy Bush who fixed her up in time to finish her speech..

And the Oscar goes to....

Ben Stiller as Na'Vi

The Hurt Locker cleaned up at the 82nd Annual Academy Awards last night! Everyone was buzzing about how Avatar was going to win big, but that wasn't the case. I was secretly waiting for Kayne West to barge on stage when The Hurt Locker was given the Oscar for best picture.

Show Notes - Friday, March 5th 2010

Jay Leno took back the reigns of the Tonight Show and so far it’s proving to be the right choice by NBC. Over the last week, Jay’s ratings have sky rocketed through the roof getting about 6 million viewers each night.. Is it just a fluke? Or is Jay back on top? I’ll definitely keep you posted… But don’t expect to see Conan O’brien back on TV anytime soon… he’s forbidden to appear on TV for another 7 months..

The Canadian government surprised many that it wants Parliament to consider changes to the national anthem to make it gender sensitive. And after a public outcry, the Government wont be changing the anthem after all. The line in question… “In all thy sons command” It’s sad to see the government so concerned about changing the national anthem rather than balance the national debt.

Can you imagine a world where we all don’t have to worry about what we eat and how it’s making us live forever? Unfortunately we don’t live in that world and foods that we consume every day increase your risk of high blood pressure and excess body fat.. One tip to keep fit and healthy? Lay off the pop! Researchers found that drinking regular or diet pop every day doubles your risk of high blood pressure, high insulin levels & excess belly fat and all of these increase your risk of heart disease and diabetes. The experts' solution? Switch to tea if you need a caffeine boost or if it’s the fizz you crave, try sparkling water with a splash of juice.

One of the most talked about movies of this year has finally arrived in Theathres… Alice in Wonderland which stars Johnny Depp as the Mad hatter is another masterpiece directed by Tim Burton… you may recall he directed The nightmare before Christmas and Big Fish.. The visuals in the movies are said to be real slick and like food for the eyes… it’s a definite must see if you’re checking out a movie over the next few days… Here's the trailer for Alice in Wonderland:

Other nominees include Susan Boyle, Britney Spears and K’Naan. for a full list of nominees check out juno awards.ca 2010 Juno Awards will be hosted live on CTV in Canada April 20th..

The war on which social networking site is the most popular and earning the most cash is widening for now… Facebook’s revenue for 2010 is expected to hit over a billion dollars. One billion dollars? For a site that provides status updates and place for people like you and I to upload pictures and play with addicting apps? Not a bad way to earn that kind of money!

Till next week!
