When Ryan O’Neal could not make the trips to Germany with Farrah Fawcett when she sought out state-of-the-art treatment for her cancer, Farrah’s friend, the Hollywood ex-wife Alana Stewart went in his place.

With those tapes and more, Farrah and her production partner Craig Nevius began to create the documentary. After Farrah sold the project for airing on NBC, her health took a turn for the worse,and O’Neal took control of her estate, and removed Nevius from the documentary project. With the help of would-be tabloid producers on loan from NBC Dateline, new, even more intrusive was added, sad music was sprinkled in, the title changed to Farrah’s Story in a nod to O’Neal’s 40-year-old star vehicle, Love Story, and after a strong battle, Alana Stewart was granted a “producer” credit.

Brittany Murphy: Community Acquired Pneumonia Defined Disappoints Rapacious Media
BRITTANY Murphy has died and the coroner has reported that she died of “community acquired pneumonia,” iron deficiency anemia [sic], and multiple drug intoxication.”
In pictures: Brittany Murphy (1977-2009)
Yep, she died because she wasn’t well. What are the odds? And she could have been saved with a stint in hospital – but opted for self-medicated. And Community Acquired Pneumonia is not a reference to the community of Warner Brothers or Hollywood. It is:
“…a disease in which individuals who have not recently been hospitalized develop an infection of the lungs (pneumonia). CAP is a common illness and can affect people of all ages. CAP often causes problems like difficulty in breathing, fever, chest pains, and a cough. CAP occurs because the areas of the lung which absorb oxygen (alveoli) from the atmosphere become filled with fluid and cannot work effectively.”
The full autopsy report will be released in a couple of weeks.
Brittany Murphy Is Dead And The Media Destroys Her Name
In the meantime, consider this fine journalism from the Daily Mail when Murphy was hot news:
Has Mr Brittany Murphy got something to hide?

Lindsay Lohan Junior Grey Gardens: Video Abuse
LINDSAY Lohan – how bad does the abuse have to get before you give it up? Lohan’s on telly with Nicey Nash, a comci looking for a stooge. Here’s Lohan:
WHILE waiting for her sex tape to hit the Internet, hard-living, hardly-working, troubled and talented actress Lindsay Lohan gets a paycheck today by agreeing to be humiliated on The Insider, the Pat O’Brien-soiled, even more vacuous and vapid spawn of the syndicated infotainment show, Entertainment Tonight.
Celebrity Rehab can’t be any more humiliating than allowing comedian Niecy Nash to enter your home and reveal you to be depressed, addled hoarder living in a junior Grey Gardens, crowded by piles of freebies and trash while moaning about the never-ending troubles pressed upon you by your father, Michael.

Dynasty’s Prince Charles And Camilla Move Onto Coronation Street: Pictures
WHAT irony that Prince Charles and the Camilla Duchess of Cornwall should visit the set of Coronation Street. Charles wait to be crowned is the longest-running soap opera in town. While Corrie goes for slice-of-life stuff, the royals live the Dynasty dream of suspicious deaths, questionable parentage, gold, diamonds, jets, birds, armies, drugs and booze. Corrie is more removed from the norm than the Windsors. You want reality – you can’t handle reality:

Katie Price’s Wedding: Alex Reid, Strippers, Champers And Class
KATIE Price And Alex Reid: Psst! Wanna know about Tango & Gash’s “WEDDING NIGHT SECETS”?
These secrets seep from a reliable source in covert operations: Tango & Gash. The Star tells of £10,000 spent on strippers, a further £10,000 on champagne and £2,000 on kinky gear.
Katie Price’s Career As Jordan (NSFW)
When Katie married Peter Andre, there were cakes fashioned into beasts, Jennifer Ellison and Vanessa Feltz, a pink horse-drawn carriage. A song from X Factor finalist Rowetta, £400,000 from OK! and the chance for the happy couple to cash in further as the entire wedding feature on its own series of You’ve Been Framed, earning the couple £250 for each wonderful moment.
But that was a “sham” as Katie put it. This is the real deal. This is the wedding Katie would choose for herself. Read on:
The couple whisked close pals, including her agent Diane Colburt, to Spearmint Rhino strip club where private dances by naked girls are sold for up to £500 a time. The bill for the night, including several bottles of top quality bubbly, is believed to have topped £20,000.

Michael Jackson: Dr Conrad Murray Introduces The Trial 2
MICHAEL Jackson continues to entertain. Not for Jackson the straight-forward showbizzy death from a drugs overdose. He gave us more. He worked. He gave us Dr Conrad Murray to administer the drugs so enabling Jackson to remain squeaky clean even while under the influence, allegedly.
Sadly, things panned out badly for Jackson – who died in 3D – and for Dr Murray – who is accused to causing Jackson’s death. The latest news is :
A lawyer for the Houston-based doctor, Conrad Murray, said Tuesday that his client is in Los Angeles and prepared to surrender if authorities file charges against him. I don’t have any specific information that leads me to believe he is going to be charged this week,” lawyer Ed Chernoff said, “but if he is, we’ve made it clear he’s available to turn himself in.”

Alex Reid And Amy Winehouse Separated At Birth: Photo Proof
AMY Winehouse has married Alex Reid, as you know. And to set your minds at rest that they married for love in the utmost privacy (the camera crew were hand picked – all dear friends) they issue a press release:
“Their decision to marry has not been made with any pre-conceived commercial plan or media deal in place, and their reason for getting married is purely down to their love for each other.”
Communinque ends.
In other news, Alex Reid looks just like Amy Winehouse. Are they related?

Lily Allen Turns Her Back And Dimpled Thighs On Twitter
LILY Allen gave up Twitter and a world groaned. Said Allen: “I am a neo-luddite.” She didn’t smash up her lap-top, mobile , iPod and whatever other gadgets she keeps in her handbag, but she gave them away. She craved the “real life”. She flew arond the world on horse-drawn fluying birds.
She even stood in a barn in rural Paris as women in timeless fashion walked – walked! – around here.
She told us:
“I won’t use email, I play records on vinyl, I don’t blog. I’ve got more time, more privacy. We’ve ended up in this world of unreal communication and I don’t want that. I want real life back.”

Fred Dibnah The Movie: Clare Short Or Tim Healy?
FRED Dibnah: The Movie. The Bolton News resports – with thanks to Bat E Bird in the forums:
“THE life of steeplejack Fred Dibnah is to be turned into a blockbuster movie.
Plans for the film are still being drawn up, but a website has been launched in a bid to attract the necessary funding from the film industry.
The project is still in the early stages, which means that no decision has been made about who will play Fred, who lost his battle with cancer in November, 2004.”

Thanking God For The Oscars In Pictures: Anne Hathaway, Helen Mirren And Actor Idol
IT’S The Oscars, and actress Anne Hathaway is stood beside a suit known as the President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science Tom Sherak. It’s that time when the greatest talent and stars of the world’s greatest entertainment Mecca gather to produce an amateurish, prolix, turgid, sticky bore-fest, which the winners have the awareness to thank God for.
And it’s right that they do – this an AGM for suits and their hirelings. If you want a real show then give all the stars the same script and have them read it before judges. Call it Actor Idol or the XXXX Factor and have them give full throat to their art on the casting couch. Extra points awarded for how many people you know on the committee.
This year, Brits up for a novelty shower gel diospenser are: Dame Helen Mirren, Armando Iannucci, Nick Hornby, Carey Mulligan, Kathryn Bigelow and Colin Firth…
