Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries have registered for wedding gifts and it's no surprise their wishlist totals $172,000. Look at Kim's big ass... RING, these two don't do modest!
HollywoodLife.com reports the reality star and NBA player went nuts at Gearys in Beverly Hills asking for items that range from a $12.50 napkin to a $7,850.00 vase.
If I were invited to that wedding I'd be trying to grab up the napkin before it's already been purchased and I'm forced to buy an $1,100.00 ashtray. One thousand one hundred dollars... For a nasty ashtray?! That you squish dirty, stinky cigarettes into?? You know you can get those things at the dollar store, right? Do they even fucking smoke?
Kim Kardashian's engagement ring is basically the size of a pocket watch, so it's really not too surprising that there was actually room for not one but two Bible verses to engrave.
The average person who adds a message to a ring usually only has the space for something simple like "Forever", or "Me + U = <3", or "U R hot", or "Sup"... but of course with Kim's ring she had space for a storybook with pop-up pictures pretty much.
Kris Humphries tells People, "It’s engraved, with two things from the Bible. There’s one verse [Proverbs 31: 10-31] about the perfect godly woman. The other, [1 John 3:18] is about love. It took me a few days to pick them out and research the perfect ones."
And I'm sure it only took a few days for that $2 million ring to pay for itself too after all this publicity...
Not only is Kim Kardashian engaged, she is carrying around the fucking iceberg that sunk the Titanic on her finger. Seriously, biggest engagement ring EVER.
People reports, "The 16.5-carat emerald cut center stone is flanked by a pair of 2-carat trapezoids, for a total weight of 20.5 carats." Uhh-buhhh... While TMZ says the ring is worth $2 million. TWO MILLION DOLLARS. I'd be constantly worried that some lunatic would attack me and cut my hand off.
According to the magazine, 26-year-old NBA player Kris Humphries proposed to the reality star, 30, in her bedroom which was covered in rose petals. Seems like kind of a lame spot to pop the question, but that ring makes up for everything. He could have asked her while sitting on the toilet dropping a deuce with that bling. Truth.
If you already hate the amount of money the Jersey Shore cast is pulling in for getting drunk, fucking, and fighting, it's about to get 10 times worse.
Entertainment Weekly reports the reality stars have negotiated their salaries for season 4 in Italy and they are about to get paid $100,000 PER EPISODE. In season 3 they all got undisclosed raises (rumor had it up to $45,000 each episode with bonuses). In season 2 they were making $10,000 an episode. In season 1 they were broke as shit.
So if each season is about 13 episodes that puts each one of these meatballs at $1.3 million and that's just for the show. Factor in their appearance fees, like Snooki struggling to put words together at a University for $32,000, and it's only the beginning.
Rutgers University has lined up a Nobel prize-winning author to speak at their commencement this May. The ceremony will be held in a football stadium which seats 52,000 people and she will be paid $30,000. Last week, NJ.com reports Snooki was paid $32,000 to do a Q&A session at the student centre at Rutgers...
While novelist Toni Morrison will be inspiring grads to make a positive difference in the world, follow their dreams, become successful and all that junk... The Jersey Shore star taught students how to create their own hair pouf and the proper way to fist pump. Her advice: "Study hard, but party harder." Priorities.
It has to be known that it was the University who booked Morrison, and the students union who booked Snooki. Morrison's paycheck comes from PepsiCo who have the rights to all the vending machines on campus. Snooki's paycheck comes from mandatory student activity fees which are part of tuition.
When you pay an MTV reality star who didn't even graduate community college to speak at a University, of course it's going to make headlines. Especially when you pay her more than a prestigious writer. But it's not uncommon for student committees to book big names at any University for an expensive price. And any one school usually puts on about a hundred events a year for student entertainment which they attend for "free". Free as in you already paid for this shit so if you come out, you don't need to pay cover.
But on the other hand, if you were a student who was actually focused on studying and not attending any of the garbage which you had no choice but to pre-pay for, this would be pretty aggravating. Even more aggravating than watching Ronnie and Sammie have the same savage fight for the 13,056th time.
Just like Sandra Bullockdid, Gwen Stefani is donating $1 million to Japan relief effort. It totally makes sense, she's in love with Japan.
It's no secret that the Harajuku district has long motivated the No Doubt singer's creativity as she explains on the band's website, "I've been inspired by Japan for many years and have a true love, appreciation and respect for the Japanese people and their culture. The disaster in Japan is beyond heartbreaking and I want to do anything I can to help. I would never be able to make a gesture like this without the love and support of all the fans over all these years."
Gwen is also planning a charity auction in L.A. as well as releasing a limited edition Harajuku Lovers T-shirt, which she designed, with all the proceeds going to the relief effort in Japan. It will be available on nodoubt.com.
Rebecca Black's mother coughed up $2,000 for her daughter to sing a fool with the recording of "Friday", RISKY because who would have thought that thing would have actually taken off, but her investment is certainly paying off...
Forbes is reporting the 13-year-old "singer" is on her way to becoming a millionaire while you're going broke trying to Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind that song out of your head forever.
Apparently with $0.70 profit from each download on iTunes (yes people are actually buying it, and not just her friends and family), Rebecca and Ark Music Factory have made anywhere from $70,000 to $700,000 so far. Plus, YouTube pays out 63% of a dollar for every thousand hits or something, which means you can add almost another $25,000 on top of it, and counting... Girl has over 36 million views for "Friday" at this second.
The saddest thing ever would be if Ark was hoarding all this coin from Rebecca because of a crazy contract she signed before blowing up or some shit... They can't be that evil right? They'd be nothing without her! Cuz she be "kickin' in the front seat" and they be "sittin' in the back seat."
CNN reports Sandra Bullock has donated $1 million to the Red Cross to help with the tsunami and earthquake relief efforts in Japan. I bet this woman has ZERO bad karma, I feel like she does no wrong.
And sadly, as of right now the death toll in Japan has climbed above 6,400. There are still over 10,000 people missing as well. Heartbreaking.
Hey Charlie Sheen, shut the hell up. You're not helping your cause...
Watch the temporarily (or maybe forever) out-of-work actor looking and sounding like a strung out crackhead on Good Morning America earlier today... and trying to convince everyone while looking like death that he's not on drugs, he's on "CHARLIE SHEEN!" *shaky jazz hands*
EW!! Who lights up a nasty cigarette during an interview? I love the expression on ABC reporter Andrea Canning's face she's like, "You're a loser."
And the red BOMB wire?? I thought that was Liquorice at first! Fuhhh-reak.

Oh and there's even more of this fuckery with NBC's Today Show:
Between that shoutie reporter and Charlie's demented explanations, that was painful.

According to TMZ, Charlie wants $16 million for canceling the remaining episodes this season of Two and a Half Men. Meanwhile, the show has agreed to pay the crew for the 4 weeks of lost work. That's good to hear... about the crew, not about that undeserving tweaker suing.
TMZ is also reporting Charlie still wants to do another two seasons of Two and a Half Men despite this drama, but only if he's paid $3 million per episode and a $20 million signing bonus. Good luck with that.
Also... The 24-hour Charlie Sheen watch, TMZ, has posted that Charlie's longtime publicist is also over this shit and has resigned. Stan Rosenfield says in a statement, "I worked with Charlie Sheen for a long time and I care about him very much, however, at this time, I'm unable to work effectively as his publicist and have respectfully resigned." Then TMZ says Sheen was all, "You can't quit YOU'RE FIRED, or whatever." Only mature people say that...
THEN, he proceeded to do a 42-minute interview with some guy from TMZ in his own backyard. Like what?? Are we kissing his ass now for website hits? That's also called 'enabling', assholes. Or are you just letting Charlie humiliate himself even more knowing the guy is too fucked in the head to realize that? Seriously TMZ. This is low, even for you.
And there is no way I can sit through 3/4 of an hour of listening to another high metaphor from this perma-fried, haggard, so far gone, egotistical, quick-talker. I'm exhausted even writing about him. God I hope he takes tomorrow off...
You think that mop on Justin Bieber's head comes cheap? Oh shit no.
Life & Style magazine reports the 'do you can get for $14 at Supercuts costs the original wearer of the style $750 every 2 weeks. And that means every month he spends, wait-- let me get my calculator... he spends... $1500!!
That's more than my freakin' rent! What a complete waste of money.
Some Vanessa broad who claims she invented "the Bieber" (I wouldn't be bragging about that) supposedly charges $750 per session and only does house calls. Really, you're not even good enough to own your own salon yet you still charge $750? Is that like $75 per snip?? Persnippity?
She says she cuts Justin's hair every couple of weeks while he's on tour cuz he's gotta stay fresh to death. Well you'd think with all the publicity she's getting, she'd give him a discount...
Wait --NO! Don't tell me $1500 per month already IS a discount?!
Camille Grammer is rumored to be leaving the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after only one season.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the soon-to-be-ex-wife of Kelsey Grammar isn't down with the way she's being portrayed on the show. Well having four nannies for two children and spending quality time with married men probably isn't helping...
But Camille doesn't need the damn show anyway! TMZ reports she's most likely getting at least $50 million in her divorce from that cheating Frasier guy. And she's entitled to it too...
When she first married Kelsey 14-years-ago he had like no money and it was SHE who made most of decisions to invest in real estate that made them worth $100,000,000. She's also a partner in his TV company. Plus they don't have a prenup.
Since getting locked up for a night on domestic violence charges, Amber Portwood has been released after posting her $5,000 bail. She has also pled not guilty to all three felonies she's facing, plus is waiting to hear the fate of her daughter Leah.
TMZ reports the Teen Mom star has denied staging her arguments with on/off fiance Gary Shirely for the MTV show, and that her outbursts of anger were genuine. Of course she's going to say that... I do believe she is a certified psycho, yes, but no way in hell would she reveal that source of her $280,000 per year salary is FAKE if it was. Yep, 6-figure paycheck, that's what I said!
E! News reports Amber told the court this week that she makes $140,000 every 6-months from MTV, and she is planning to work with the network for another full year at least. Uhhh, so if she's making all that coin... then how come she is broke as shit on Teen Mom? So shady. That shit is why people question the truth about that show...
I seriously hope Amber isn't risking her fucking freedom for the damn camera! Then again, they say some teenage girls are now getting preggo in the hopes of getting on television too. And, hey... if you want the media attention that goes along with it, might as well kick a few asses along the way, right? It's sad how much sense I'm making...
Three weeks ago, the Kardashian Kredit Kard launched but now they're already hitting the shredders.
The Huffington Post reports the fees for the pre-paid credit card were considered "predatory" and surpassed all other prepaid credit card fees on the market. Basically, consumers wallets were being raped for simply having the faces of the three Kardashian sisters on their card... which is embarrassing that you would even want that to begin with...
Here's the breakdown:
Just buying the card costs $59.95 for the first 6 months, or $99.95 for a year.
After that it's an additional $7.95 per month to keep using the card.
It's also $1.50 to take money out of an ATM, and $1.00 to check your balance.
Talking to a customer service representative on the phone will cost you $1.50.
The charge for cancelling the card is $6.00.
And losing the card will result in a $9.95 charge, plus $50-$500 losses.
And all that doesn't even include actually putting money on the card to spend, which without doing so would make it pointless! But for the 250 people who ACTUALLY fell for this cash grab, don't worry you will get your money back.
And a word of advice, don't ever buy anything where they change the letter "C" to a "K". Kardashian KARD? Really...
Oprah Winfrey is always giving people things... even when she's not on the clock!
The billionaire talk-show host recently gifted a homeless man $100 after he spotted her idling in a limo over the weekend. But because he wasn't one of her 'Ultimate Viewers', 49-year-old Julio Bazan had to work ittt to get some cheese...
The NY Post reports when the panhandler first approached the big O for some spare change, she said she didn't have any money and even showed him her empty purse. HAHA okay. It was probably empty because she just BOUGHT IT (for $15,000). Nice fake out though.
But after he told her a joke, "Hey, Oprah, why is it good to date a homeless man? Because when you're finished, you can drop him off anywhere," she apparently laughed and handed him five 20-dollar bills through the window. She was all, "YOU get $20! And ANOTHER $20! And another $20! And another $20! And another $20!!" Wait-- I just had an aha moment-- Oprah is really easy to impress...
The toothless comedian says he spent his new found wealth on booze, a steak dinner, and underwear. TYPICAL. Wasting all your money the moment you get your hands on it...
What's the most you've ever spent on your Halloween costume? Some people get super into the dress-up holiday and create massive costumes that take months to construct, and plenty of hard-earned dollars as well... Those people, however, usually win their money back in costume contests.
What's the most you've ever spent on a Halloween costume for your kid? $20? $50? $100? Well, if you're Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, try $6,000.
In Touch Weekly reports (via Celebitchy) 4-year-old Suri has decided she wants to be a princess for Halloween so mommy and daddy had a custom princess gown designed for her complete with diamonds and pearl embroidery. So practical for one night of trick-or-treating... if they'll even let her do that.
That's more than most women's wedding dresses cost! Yeah, she's not spoiled at all...
Mark Zuckerberg, the 26-year-old co-founder and chief executive of Facebook, is planning on donating $100 million to Newark, New Jersey schools. And if you're thinking, "holy shit that's a lot of money!", the guy is worth $6.9 billion (6.8 now...) sooo... not to him!
CNN reports the Harvard dropout (had to throw that in there) doesn't have any personal ties to Newark, but the district has one of the worst public school systems in America. Also, one of the shittiest airports. Anyway, ZuckerFace is expected to make the official announcement on Oprah tomorrow, who is all about saving schools this season like she was all about not texting and driving last season...
Skeptics are questioning the timing of the donation though, as it is daaaangerously close to the release of The Social Network, a biopic depicting the creation of Facebook which apparently doesn't portray Zuckerberg very nicely... Yeah, and it also comes the same day Facebook crashed worldwide! Coincidence? I think not...
And finally, a random fact... Mark Zuckerberg is only the 35th richest person in the United States and 212th in the word! WHAT THE FUCK. 6.9 billion doesn't even crack the Top 10? There needs to be a dislike button for that shit.
Remember when Lindsay Lohan filed a $100 million lawsuit against E*Trade because she was offended by one of their talking babies commercial? In the commercial, one baby referred to another baby named Lindsay as a "milkaholic"... That's HORRIBLE.
It seemed like the most ridiculous case ever, but for some reason... Lindsay got paid. TMZ reports the case has been settled and while she didn't get the full $100 millie, she is "very happy" with what she did get. The amount is confidential though...
If Lindsay was cool she would donate that money to charity. But bitch be broke so you know that's not gonna happen anytime soon...
If I ever drop $100,000 (if I HAD $100,000)... it would probably be on a down payment for a house. I really can't justify spending that kind of cash on anything else. Not even on a sick whip...
But if you're Kim Kardashian, you spend that much on a shopping trip in ONE store. What the shit?!
TMZ reports the reality star and her mom Kris Jenner bought $100,000 worth of purses at Hermes in Paris yesterday. How many do you think they bought?? 100? 50?? Try SEVEN. Six were $10,000 Birkin bags, and one was a $30,000 rare crocodile skin bag. Seriously, your fucking purse costs more than my car.
Oh and by the way, it's only a PURSE! It's a piece of cloth you shove your shit you can't function without into while out of the house. What a Goddamn waste...
