Money Can't Buy Me Love.... 2008-04-17 11:57:37 Honestly, the Diva just cannot understand this whole Paris Hilton schtick. Other than daddy's money (or the money from grandpa that she will be getting through daddy because grandpa cut her out of the will) why is she famous? Anyone? Anyone? Class? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? Is she famous because she is a great songstress?Sheyat no, but the studio technician who tried, in vain, to do something with that voice should get a big chunk o' grandpa's dough for the herculean effort that had to have been involved. Is she famous because she is a great actress?Oh friggin hell NO:As of April 3, 2008, the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reported that 5% of critics gave "The Hottie or the Nottie" positive reviews. Metacritic reported the film had an average score of 6 out of 100 — indicating "e Read more:Money

My worst friggin' nightmare is about to come to a television near you:The Skeletor and Company ShowJennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony tried to keep their pregnancy under wraps, but now the couple is ready to let the whole world catch a glimpse of their family. J.Lo and Marc have signed on for a new reality show with TLC, Access Hollywood has learned. The new mom, who gave birth to twins in February, was on hand at the TLC upfront presentation in New York on Wednesday to announce the news.You have to understand that the Aging Disco Diva is a Nuyorican (New Yorker of Puerto Rican descent) who will go out of her way to support a television show or movie that portrays Hispanics is a positive light (speaking of....

The Diva Flips Out... 2008-04-22 23:56:24 OMFG.... the Diva is paying over $3.50 a friggin' gallon to fill up the exploding Pinto,the national debt is $9,356,764,763,991.25 and increasing at a rate of 1.49 billion dollars a day... and what is the top political news story???Was Obama just innocently scratching his cheek during the speech or was he secretly flipping the bird at Hillary Clinton?You know what? I DON'T F'n CARE if he turned around, dropped his pants, and asked her to plant her lips on his butt. Enough of this crap. Inflation is eating into my damn Godiva and champagne budget and the Diva is pissed. Here ya' go--Let there be no doubt that I am flipping the bird at every dang politician who is trying to blow smoke up my ample buttocks:The only funny thing out of this whole stupid "controversy" is that it is fodder for on
A Bored Diva is a Snarky Diva.... 2008-04-26 12:55:22 Ho-hum. The gossip news these last few days has been boring.First big bore: Another "shocking" ouster on American Idol.The Church Lady was not pleasedCarly Smithson might be the first “American Idol” contestant to be voted off the show for blasphemy.Online chat boards devoted to “American Idol” have been abuzz since Ms. Smithson performed the title song from “Jesus Christ Superstar” — the 1970 rock opera, which many Christians consider offensive — on Tuesday’s episode. Ms. Smithson received the fewest votes of the six remaining contestants following her Tuesday performance. Her elimination was announced on Wednesday night’s episode. The week’s performances were drawn from the works of Andrew Lloyd Webber, who wrote “Jesus Christ Superstar” with Tim Rice. Within ho Read more:Bored

The Diva A Cheesehead??? 2008-04-27 12:13:15 The Aging Disco Diva loves God, family, country, Kansas State University, adult beverages, chocolate, the 70s....and now the Green Bay Packers. Why in heaven's name is she adding Cheesehead to her list? Because they had the damn good sense to draft our beloved Jordy Nelson as their first draft pick yesterday. Jordy is a friggin' STUD on the football field and a wonderful, wonderful human being. Green Bay-- you are going to be a better team because of this selection and you can bet the farm that Jordy will never do anything to sully his name nor the reputation of your team. He is a classy kid. Green Bay Made a Great SelectionMANHATTAN — Jordy Nelson didn't recognize the number when the phone rang."I answered, but I didn't really know who it was," he said. "When they said who it wa
Momma Billy Ray Rose Dropped the Ball? 2008-04-28 20:57:46 Ok, let's just call the Aging Disco Diva a bit overprotective....a bit old fashioned....a bit old school... but when did quasi child porn become artsy? And what the f'n hell was MommaBilly
Ray Rose doing while his 15...yes folks....15 year old daughter was posing for the picture above? Was he too damn busy counting the money his little cash cow is raking in to notice that she was posing provocatively, with her jail bait naughty bits covered up only with a silk sheet? OMFG. 15 might be considered an old woman back in the trailer park but carp on a stick, in most states (note I did not say all states) a 15 year old is still considered a child.Does it take more than two brain cells to realize that a photo of your child wearing nothing but a sheet might be inappropriate for someone who is be Read more:Dropped
Father Does Not Always Know Best 2008-04-30 18:58:12 I just don't get it. The Aging Disco Diva must live in some sort of alternate universe where it is considered not only inappropriate, but downright friggin' yucky, for a daddy to rub lotion on his teenage daughter's arse, orin between her thighs ... orpose for engagement announcement type photos. Or salaciously brag about your daughter's breasts:“She just is sexy. If you put her in a T-shirt or you put her in a bustier, she’s sexy in both. She’s got double D’s! You can’t cover those suckers up!Transpose these images with the story of the almost unbelievable incest case of the father in Austria who held his daughter hostage for 24 years and impregnated her at least seven times, and you have to wonder WTF is going on over in this universe. I am NOT saying that Hulk Hogan Read more:Father
Weiner Wranglers On The Loose! 2008-04-29 23:49:16 Every male's worst nightmare.... KINSHASA (Reuters) - Police in Congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men's penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.Reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in West Africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.Rumors of penis theft began circulating last week in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo's sprawling capital of some 8 million inhabitants. They quickly dominated radio call-in shows, with listeners advised to beware of fellow passengers in communal taxis wearing gold rings. Purported victims, 14 of whom were also detained by po Read more:Weiner

Dancing With The Politicos 2008-05-03 01:07:07 The Aging Disco Diva is getting fed up with the US Presidential election...and sheyat, we still have six more damn months to go. Sigh. I would like to put forth this modest proposal: let's just scrap the debates, the baby kissing, the mud slinging and back stabbing, the non-stop arse kissing and lying...and let's decide who will be President by having the ultimate reality show: "Dancing
With the Politicos"The premise is simple: Everyone, not just those from the major parties, who wants to be President will appear on the premier episode Monday evening and will have to perform a song and dance routine. We at home get to vote for our favorite via a 1-800 number or via the website...and on Tuesday we get to see who got voted off the show that week. The following Monday the remaining politician

Stoopid is as Stoopid.... 2008-05-05 19:48:39 Stupid criminal and or just plain ole' stupid people stories are commonplace, but this one caught my eye because...well, this stupid wanker is from the town the Diva spent her prime polyester clad teen years in (in fact I graduated from West Islip High in 1974) Just makes your chest fill with "Lion" pride, LOL. COPIAGUE, N.Y. - A Long Island man who flipped his finger at a police cruiser and then popped a wheelie on his motorcycle is recovering from injuries after crashing.Suffolk County Police said Frank Patti, 26, of West Islip, rode by the police car at a service station in Copiague at 7:30 p.m. Sunday. Police say Patti made an obscene gesture to two officers in the car, popped a wheelie and then sped away.Police gave chase.When the motorcycle turned into a parking lot it crashed into a

SocialSpark: An Angry Diva Is A Sight To Behold! 2008-05-10 16:31:10 The Diva had been encouraged to submit her website to "Socialspark" by one of her readers, so I figured...Hey, what the heck, why not?

Trailer Trash Tales Today or Soap On A Rope Surprise! 2008-05-09 20:16:48 It doesn't matter how much money they manage to stumble into or how hard they try...trailer trash will always manage to be trailer trash. What do trailer trash dads wear to their son's court sentencing?Well, at least he wore something with sleeves and a black doo-rag, rather than his usual muscle shirt and print bandana. If Hulk were black or Hispanic, do you think the judge would have tolerated him wearing this in their court??? Just pondering out loud.....The Diva was pleased to see that Brooke went all out and wore something from the 2008 "Street Walker Collection" created by the "Oldest Profession" label to her brother's sentencing.I am still searching for a better photo of the dress....if you have been watching the news coverage today you have no doubt caught sight of the black, shoul Read more:Trailer

Mr. Rockford and Miss Rotten...Two Extremes on Life's Spectrum 2008-05-13 21:39:36 The Diva was so sad to read about James Garner's stroke and hospitalization. I have always had very impure OMILF (Older Man I'd like to get frisky with) thoughts whenever I thought of him (and of course Ricardo "Rich Corinthian leather" Montalban) ... I can remember envying Sally Field in "Murphy's Romance" because he was so...so...yummy in that movie and of course I was a big "Rockford Files" fan Read more:Rotten

The Schmuck and The Shrimp 2008-05-14 23:22:53 Howard Stern is a schmuck. I would not listen to him when he was on the air for free and I sure as hell am not going to pay to listen to him (though I actually am a Sirius Radio subscriber) If I want to listen to mean, foul mouthed immature boys I will return to teaching middle school. Shock jocks are so yesterday. What has the Aging Disco Diva's feather boa ruffled? Stern the Schmuck has decided Read more:Shrimp
Karma Class 101 2008-05-17 21:54:31 The Aging Dico Diva adores Ellen Degeneres. She is one of my favorite comics and talk show hosts. Ellen has a joy of life thing going and she also tends to wear her emotions on her sleeve (much like moi) She is one of those people that you would like to be friends with.... and it has nothing to do with her celebrity status (in fact you would like to be a friend despite her fame) You just want all
Drowning in Papers 2008-05-22 23:43:07 I just wanted to apologize for the lack of posts this week. The Diva works in the education field and this is the time of year that my paperwork and files must be involved in hot, sweaty, paper sex at night because every morning when I stumble into my home office it is apparent that the pile of paperwork needing to be filed had procreated and quadrupled in size overnight.This morning I started wor

Everything Has A Purpose, Even Denise Richards... 2008-05-25 13:52:57 When the Aging Disco Diva was a youngun' she can clearly remember a conversation in school concerning the notion that every living creature had a purpose.

Creep Alert, Remembering Tribbles and Clay's Gonna Be A? 2008-05-29 17:47:40 I've never been much of a Bill Murray fan, even back "in the day"....and I was a huge, huge fan of the first decade of Saturday Night Live. Bill Murray and Chevy Chase made my skin crawl and I never could put my finger on it. There seemed to be an undercurrent of nasty, angry condescension in both of them and it actually prevented me from finding most of what they did either on SNL or in the movie Read more:Creep

Yup, He's a Special Kind of Stupid. 2008-06-04 00:19:01 The Diva will probably not be posting every single day during the summer, but I will be sharing my snarkitude as stories break ...or I run out of cold champagne and chocolate covered strawberries.

2008 Twit of the Year 2008-06-12 00:36:53 It is great to see Hulk Hogan working so hard to get into competitive shape for the "Twit of the Year" competition. Twit pundits are in agreement that he is the prohibitive favorite to win the coveted award, particularly because the competition consists of his son Nick and soon to be ex-wife Linda.. and while they have obviously been working diligently to give the Hulkster a run

I like Mike...why don't Chicago? 2008-06-23 17:50:20 Michael Beasley is the best college basketball player in the nation. I don't care what kind of carnival game Sports Illustrated pulled with its "Player of the Year" selection fiasco.
