Dish #66 - Mad, Mad World

The Dish: Tommy Lee is FURIOUS (yes, caps indeed) as SeaWorld Orlando for using a cow's vagina to retrieve male sperm from Mr. Tilikum and treating him as a 'sperm bank'. Mr. Tilikum was responsible for the death of veteran trainer Dawn Brancheau in February of this year, and the death of two others back in 1991 and 1999. Mr. Lee says, in his quest to defend animal rights, that he could not imagine anything worse, "even during [his] wildest days with Motley Crue." And that's saying a lot coming from Tommy Lee. Lol. Tilikum is an orca, by the way. 

Bloody Business: Ms. Aretha Wilson has been jailed for two years. Ms. Wilson was the one who sliced up Leonardo DiCaprio's face with a wine glass back in 2005 at a Hollywood party. He got 17 stitches for it. The Canadian model initially claimed that she thought he was her ex-boyfriend. Whatever the reason, we remain reassured that Leo still has his good looks and is aging better than ever.

There's classy, then there's "I'm hungry": Gotta <3 Blake Lively, I found these magazine spreads that she shot for Interview Magazine this past summer. Can you spot the photo that does not match with the rest? That one would be Lady Gaga sporting her I'm-getting-m'self-a-slice-of-pizza-in-Barcelona outfit. She's starting to get really, really annoying.

Dish #38 - Hey little, baby kitty.


The Dish: It's been a while since I've written about celebrity gossip. But to be honest, there is nothing new on the scene since MJ died. There's the whole battle between Kate and Jon to outshine each other in promiscuity. There's an Elvis wig going up for auction for 12,000 dollars - creepy. Then there's Janet Dickinson who conveniently ignored a lawsuit filed against her by City National Bank and now has to pay more than she originally owed - what an idiot. All really boring.

The brightest 27-year old Calgarian: The following story is way more interesting. On Monday, a pair of (not-very-smart) men scaled the 2.5-metre high exterior fence of the Calgary Zoo - unauthorized, obviously - and climbed over the 1-metre high protective wall that enclosed the Siberian Tigers exhibit. Then, one of the men approached the second defense, a 4.5-metre high electric protective fence that guarded the tigers. There, on the exterior side, this man got his hand caught in the fence and got seriously mauled and kissed by the wonderful and loving 2-year old Siberian tiger, Vitali. Zoo officials took no sympathy and ruled that it was the man's fault for breaking into the zoo and for serving himself as a midnight snack to one of the largest carnivorous cats in the world. They believe that alcohol was involved...on the man's part...not the tiger.

Mmm - finger lickin' good.
