PacificCoastNews.com; Patricia Schlein/ WENNDear Ted:
What's your take on Nicole Kidman's new assertion that she got pregnant after swimming under some tribal/fertility waterfall in Australia? Is this her delusional self-denial?
—New Mom, Too
Dear Reproductively Confused:
I don't waste my time trying to figure out how a woman who was married to Tom Cruise for that long finagles things.
Dear Ted:
Regarding your Morning Piss about Clay Aiken...shame on you, Ted! Just because it was painfully obvious that he was gay does not mean that it took any less courage for Clay to come out of the closet. You of all people should know that to come out takes tremendous courage, no matter if you are in the public eye or not. Even gay friends of mine who had incredibly supportive friends and family found coming out difficult for them (even if everyone else around them knew they were gay already). I applaud Clay for his bravery.
—Courtney
Dear Morning Dump:
I don't. And I don't even call it coming out. Limping out, is more like it.
Dear Ted:
Love the column, was perusing some photos, noticed that Katie Homes was wearing a crucifix necklace—but the cross looks upside down. Is this a strange Scientology thing? Keep the good goss coming!
—U.K. Fan
Dear CrissCross:
Just don't stare directly at it...
Dear Ted:
Are you going to post about any of Obama's gaffes? Like the fact that he just recently tried to delay troop withdrawal in Iraq or the fact that he wavered on gays in the military recently? I only ask because you seem so fixated with Palin and are more than ready to discuss her shortcomings.
—J in D.C.
Dear Not Obama's Mama:
As I've stated before, I am so not into everything O. His stance on gay marriage—just for starters. But alas, I think he's infinitely the better qualified candidate to raise us from the muck that is Iraq, among other sorry states in this country.
Dear Ted:
I have to say I agree with you about not outing celebs, but only to a point. When they go out of their way to look straight, even going so far as to take a wife I say enough is enough. Out those bitches.
—Catman
Dear Straight Shooter:
Between legal woes and moral codes I get hesitant 'bout that.
Dear Ted:
Are Clay Aiken and his baby son Toothy's boyfriend Gray Goose and Baby Tile?
—Jane
Dear Too Obvious:
Toothy's lover isn't coming out anytime soon.
Dear Ted:
Now that Sophia Bush is single and working on One Tree Hill with three of her ex-boyfriends, Chad Michael Murray, James Lafferty and Austin Nichols, do you think she will start dating one of them again? I hope she goes for Austin. I liked them together.
—Paula
Dear Ex Factor:
CMM is out, fer sure. He can maybe hope for some hate sex, but that's it. I think Bush should even the scoreboard and go for Benji Madden. Thoughts?
Dear Ted:
Could you tell us more about Toothy's boyfriend? He is half of the most intriguing and beautiful Hollywood gay closeted couple and the other daddy of Baby Tile. Don't you think he deserves more attention from you?
—April
Dear Man Hunt:
No, but his abs surely do.
Dear Ted:
What's up with all those geeky glasses a lot of the men wore at the Emmys? Were they sending some kind of coded message or just misinformed about style?
—Nickie
Dear Out of Sight:
Didn't you know? Actors are really serious people.
Dear Ted:
Is Gore-Me Garth David Boreanaz? I'm dying to know if I'm right.
—Aholbrook
Dear Not So Angel-ic:
Fab guess, but no. Think even more doable, darling!
Dear Ted:
"Classy and Fabulous" is absolutely neither. Yawn. You're very handsome and look great. Age has nothing to do with cool.
—SDB
Dear D-Fence:
Thanks, hon. You getting gray down there, too?
Dear Ted:
Until you mentioned Mario Lopez's ex Ali Landry, I had almost forgotten why I thought this guy was such a sleaze! Thanks for the reminder that this guy is not the sweetie that he tries to appear to be.
—Sarah, N.Y.
Dear Setting the Standard:
Oh hell, when it comes down to (or on) it, everyone's slutty!
Dear Ted:
You are so right on with your Desk DeeCee report about Hillary Clinton supporters looking forward to a McCain victory so that she can run in 2012. I just vacationed with some gay friends from San Francisco (all Hillary supporters) and one pair mentioned that the fastest route to the White House for Hillary is through John McCain. They can't stand Obama. Scary!
—Barry in SoFla
Dear DemoWacktic:
Desk DeeCee always knows whatsup. Seems stupid that people are willing to sacrifice four more awful years tho.
Dear Ted:
I hope you'll address the racist comments found on the Sarah Silverman/Obama entry. I found the responses to Silverman's comments relentlessly depressing. I don't care for her humor but the lambasting she's received and the ugly comments about Senator Obama stunned me. I'm probably reading a bit into it but I felt like I detected a hint of anti-Semitism along w/the racism. Ugh.
—Lisa
Dear Humorously Correct:
It's a thin line between free speech and hate speech. You should see the anti-fruit crap in there. People are idiots.
Dear Ted:
What's your take on Nicole Kidman? She made such a fuss over having a baby and now you only see her back at work or out and about without the baby. Her maternity leave was as long as her days in between Botox shots.
—Just asking
Dear Post-Baby Bagger:
Why didn't Posh ever get fat when she was preg? There's something in the baby formula here in H'wood, that's for sure. And what's this about Nicole getting Botox, doll? Do dish more! I find that one so astonishing!
