Pictures Of Suri Cruise Introduce Mission Impossible 4: Scietology Or Less

SURI Cruise used her Earth Mother Katie Holmes to carry her into the Bowery hotel, in New York. Tom Cruise has just signed on to star in the fourth Mission: Impossible film, in which he strives to find a shorter way of saying Scientology, the many syllables thought to be preventing Jews, Muslims, Christians and Hindus but not Unitarianists from signing up.

Michael Jackson V Conrad Murray: Introducting Danny Gans

7224701MICHAEL Jackson V Dr Conrad Murray: Will this case finally allow the death of Danny Gans to emerge into the mainstream media? Gans was the Las Vegas stalwart found dead by iatrogenic mean. Anorak’s Man in LA reports:

THE death of Las Vegas superstar Danny Gans by overdose of a powerful opiate called hydromorphone at the prime of his life and career raised few, if any red flags among the members of the Las Vegas news media. The mysterious and untimely passing of the injury-riddled Born Again Christian athlete, corporate entertainment favorite and longtime Steve Wynn showpiece in the middle of the night, and all the strange occurrences before and after his tragic last breath rated little more than cursory coverage and police report transcribing, and the acceptance of one of Danny Gans’ doctor’s claims that the star may have died from the ingestion of a single hydromorphone (also known as Dilaudid or “drugstore heroin”) pill left over from an unused five-year-old prescription.

The willful and shameful avoidance of the Gans story and all its many avenues, including Gans’ ownership of a pharmacy supply house, was made more obvious when compared to the national media’s vigilant and responsible coverage of the death of entertainer Michael Jackson.

Now, the manslaughter charge lodged yesterday against Conrad Murray, the doctor who allegedly administered the fatal dose of drugs that Jackson ordered up, has again brought the Gans case into the national spotlight.

An item on the MSNBC.com website titled Murray’s case up stakes in world of celeb drugs notes that

“…the state of California, weary of growing number of celebrity prescription drug deaths, is seeking some control over a festering doctor-patient dynamic that has taken bold-faced names from Heath Ledger to Anna Nicole Smith to Danny Gans.”

While those on the Las Vegas news media would claim that Gans is an unimportant figure, known to few outside the market, others know better. In this case, the musical impressionist is mentioned in the same sentence as two legends, in a story about a fellow legend. Of the four cases, his is the only one that was closed along with all its mysteries left hanging. Yet, according to the MSNBC report, Gans’ death, coming weeks before Jackson’s, may have been a factor in the decision to prosecute in the Murray case– “to put a dent into Hollywood’s pill pipeline.”

Danny Gans’ tragedy may, in the end, help future celebrities. But most important: Will there ever be justice for Danny Gans?

Surely, some of the curiosity will spread.

Susan Boyle’s Turkish Swimming Cat Pebbles Relocates To London Olympics Village

7405910SUSAN Boyle has split form Pebbles. The cat that encouraged SuBo to sing and perform by way to his radio-whiskers and mind control has been ditched.

“Anyway this friend said to me, ‘We all know you like cats. Would you have Susan’s cat for a couple of weeks?’”

Brad Pitt ‘Breaks Down’ As Angelina Jolie ‘Taunts’ Him

angelina-jolie-brad-pitt1BRAD Pitt and Angelina Jolie are frotting and rubbing and groping at the Super Bowl. It’s entertaining stuff, keeping the fans thrilled in those long boring bits between the adverts. Brad and Ange are together. But still the National Enquirer hammers away at the couple that have already split, or not. This week, readers are told:

Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie Touch Up Super Bowl: In 70 Pictures

“BRAD BREAKS DOWN! He can’t take any more.”

“ANGIE TAUNTING HIM”

“JEN HURTING HIM”

Brad and Angelina are suing the NoTW for saying they’d split up. We spot Brad and Ange getting off with each other. Or as the Enquirer says:

“BRAD CAN’T TAKE ANY MORE!”

Readers learn of the “misery of his personal life” and that Brad is in the “deep, dark pit of despair”. He is “falling to pieces.”

READ: Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie: Sex Toys, Jennifer Aniston ‘Romps’ In Pictures

“Angelina would like nothing more than for Brad to crawl back to her on his hands and knees, begging her for a reconciliation. But there’s no way that’s going to happen.”

So says the source. But hasn’t Brad already been on all fours?

Win Tickets For Miley Cyrus Haiti Film, Joe McElderry Goes Free

8327208HAITI is a huge deal for popstars. You can look at the worst Charity singles here. And know that Miley Cyrus tells us: “Ever since the earthquake, I’ve been trying to do my part to help the people of Haiti – and I wanted to do more.”

Whaddayado, Miley?

Well, fans can bid to buy Miley’s Herve Leger dress the singer wore to the Grammy Awards, two tickets to the Hollywood premiere of her upcoming film, The Last Song, Nicole Richie’s jewelry from her House of Harlow line and a Britney Spears mini dress. And Miley’s big sister, Brandi, will “perform with her band Frank & Derol at Harmonies for Haiti, a charity concert organized by Disney Channel star Chelsea Staub, on Feb. 11 at the House of Blues in West Hollywood.”

Any Haitians who can make it, can enter too. (Travel arrangements and lodgings not included.)

As they say:

I don’t mean to sound bitter. I just am. All a celebrity has to do to look like they’re doing shitloads is to drop off clothes they probably didn’t even pay for, as long as their name’s attached – whereas if we put in the amount of effort they’re doing as of right now – we’d probably be handing in used bobby pins, friendship bracelets or nail clippers or something

Here’s X Factor winner Joe McElderry buying his Simon Cowell Says song for Haiti. The grandstanding is not important so long as the cash reaches the needy, right. Only, if the needy can help to promote a few stars, then at last someone wins from so much death and destruction. Although no Haitian singers and musos – sorry, maybe next time…

Kelly Osbourne Fail: Flies In A Green Jet And Heidi Montag Hypocrisy

8112688KELLY Osbourne uses her Closer magazine column to tell readers that she is “Going Green” and thinks Heidi Montag is sad for having cosmetic surgery. When she’s not jetting between big houses in America and Britain, Kelly is doing good deeds:

“In some ways, LA is really behind the UK in terms of recycling and being green. Hardly anyone uses their own shopping bags at the supermarket and everyone drinks bottled water. But I’m going to make a huge effort this year. I’ve been using a water filter jug instead of buying water and Luke and I try to walk places instead of driving or we use our electric scooter.”

And that good because Kelly is drinking 4 litres of water a day as part of her de-tox. Last week, green trooper Kelly was in Mommoth mountain California skiing. And Luke has just scootered it back to England. What other news?

* Kelly, 25, was set to marry her model fiance Luke Worrall, 20, later this year but they have postponed the event until 2011 so Worrall will be able to drink in the US.

Tap water? Or imported spirits?
