Unbelievably upsetting, but with all respect to the Swayze clan, why, exactly, do we need to know this incredibly hideous problem? Beloved actor, yes, but he’s not a political figure whose demise would mean potential Castro-size catastrophe.
This is some serious stuff, and I feel almost dirty just knowing about its existence. Even if the deadly disease turns out to be zilch (which I’m crossing my fingers it does), I doubt Swayz-babe wants to walk around lookin’ like a charity case in the meantime.
Where the ef is the line in demanding every last detail of a celeb’s life? Is a life-and-death sitch off-limits to our greedy little eyeballs 'n' ears? Guess not. Which starlet’s shacking up with which sports star is small potatoes—now we sniff out addictions and sexual preferences and baby bumps like it’s our heavenly tabloid-given right as Americans to be 110 percent aware of what goes on in H-town 24/7. The e-snoops are totally the new CIA, n’est-ce pas?
That said, remember Death-Mint Myrtle from One Wasted Waist Blind Vice? We’re revealing that waif-thin star who keeps her show’s editors up half the night (in vain digital attempts to make it appear like Death Mint’s actually got an ounce of flesh on her), this week. See, life’s too short for those whose bodies are deteriorating—and not by their own accord.
“What have you done to Cindy Adams?” I then asked Olim, after calling to find out if she’d participated in any further private mauling of the New York institution. No response. I then told Mama Olim I’d asked Cindy directly, and she wouldn’t comment on the veracity of her original story.
“That’s because she made it up,” Ms. O sniffed. “But I must tell you, I’m done with my 15 minutes of fame on this one.”Eight Angry Men: Idol’s making sure the Top 12 is nice and gender equal, forcing six guys and six girls into the top spots regardless of who's got the most goods. There were at least seven men who deserved (whether through talent or good television) to get into that Top 12, and maybe three gals, at most. Our opinion, kiss our taut butts if you don’t agree. Hey, we’re all for being gender neutral here at AT, which means someone shouldn’t slide into a spot they shouldn’t have just 'cause of their genitalia.
