Lightning Round: Kiki, Ho's and Fruity Fruit

We just returned from an exciting trip to Beverly Hills. We presented our antioxidant-rich, fruit-based fruits to a number of  A-list celebrities, comedians, rock stars and more. I would be interested in sending samples of our products for your review.
—Andy, Bellaire, Michigan

The B!tch Replies:  Excellent! I LOVE fruit-based fruit! But only if it comes with mineral-based minerals. Got to watch for that dreaded osteoporosis. Keep those freebies coming, care of the E! building. In return, I shall keep the answers coming thick and fast, in Lightning Rounds like this one...

How did Kirsten Dunst end up with the nickname Kiki?
—Laura, Baltimore

She has said that, as a very young child, she turned to "Kiki" when she had trouble pronouncing her own name. Plus, in 1989, Dunst provided the lead voice-over for the American version of the Japanese hit animated film Kiki's Delivery Service.

I love your show! I was wondering: How do paparazzi always know where to find a star?
—Madeline, Oslo, Norway

Oftentimes, paparazzi trail an actress to her home. But in other instances, the paparazzi will be tipped off by a member of the star's toddler-eating, throat-chewing PR squad—or in many cases by the starlet herself. Remember that next time you write to me asking why the photographers just won't leave those poor folks alone.

Why do paparazzi have to keep on ruining people's lives? I mean they have even ruined marriages just to get stories for the tabloids!
Ximena, Lima, Peru

See my last answer. Might be easier to read if you dismount from your high horse first.

I was just wondering what else Wentworth Miller has been in—any commercials or movies or other TV shows or sitcoms? Prison Break is so awesome because he is so hot.
—Janna, Florence, Alabama

Miller played a younger version of Anthony Hopkins in The Human Stain, opposite Nicole Kidman. He also had a memorably campy two-episode role as a simpering rival cheerleader to Tammy Lynn Michaels, in the defunct sitcom Popular.

Those before-and-after fat pics of Jared Leto—the ones that got published in some obscure French fashion magazine and started appearing all over the Internet—were truly terrifying. Why did he allow these to be published?
Mark, Seattle

For the same reason Britney has "allowed" her bald pate to be splashed all over the weeklies: It isn't up to her. It's called the First Amendment.

When a person appears on a reality TV show, do they get paid?
—Shazaa, Syracuse, New York

Most often, yep.

Do teen idols get paid to be in those magazines?
—Lisa, Newark, Delaware

Most often, nope.

Just a note to say I enjoy your tart-humored bitchnique. My question: Once the debacle of greed-fueled lawsuits following Anna Nicole's death are played out, what if the following happened: Paris, Britney, Lindsay, the Olsens, Mischa, Jen, Brad, and Angelina all took a fateful trip on the S.S. Minnow II and were stranded on a remote desert island, presumably to disappear from Hollywood and cyberspace.
—Gini, Somerville, Massachusetts

Jessica Simpson would leap into the power vacuum and establish imperial rule. Hootenannies in the streets. The streets, people!

Why aren't any Jews in Hollywood gay?
—Fred, Key West, Florida

You are so never getting a meeting with David Geffen.

Have you heard about Jay-Z's illegitimate child by a video vixen?
—Shantae, Suffolk, Virginia

The term is video ho, and no.

Why don't people let Anna Nicole rest in peace? The poor woman is dead!
—Kyleigh, Everett, Washington

Yes, but her three-ring circus of barely trained baboons still lives on. As long as those folks keep flashing their proverbial primate butts for news cameras, the rest of you will keep on watching.
