The Week in Review

Happy Friday y'all (said in my Britney Spears voice). It's been a busy week in celebrity land and I'd like to spend a few minutes going over the top breaking news flashes of the week that was October 13th.

- Madonna and Guy Ritchie to divorce! This probably wasn't that shocking to anyone who follows gossip blogs as passionately as I do. It's been a long time coming for the 50-year-old from Detroit and her British hubby. Word on the street is that Madge is already hooking up with Yankees superstar "insert position here" Alex Rodriquez who apparently goes by the nickname "A Rod." They are a match made in Kabbalah heaven.

- David Duchovny and Tea Leoni to divorce! This was even slightly less shocking than Madonna's split. One thing I've learned by reading Perez Hilton is that rehab is just the beginning of the story. Duchovny recently spent some time at a luxury resort (I mean rehab facility) to treat his "sex addiction." Poor guy. I really can't blame him for getting a little wild and crazy after all those years spent as the dark and brooding Moulder guy on X Files. So what if he's taking his swinging man about town role a little too seriously on Californication. Method acting can pay off big time come award season. Tea should just stick by her man and deal with it...oh wait...she can't because she was cheating on David with Billy Bob Thornton??? What woman in Hollywood can resist the charms of Mr. Billy Bob?!

- MTV to air tell-all documentary on Brit Brit! - It's called Britney: For the Record (Nov. 30) and it's supposed to be her side of the trainwreck. So far the only snippet I've heard is a quote from the Britster herself: "What the hell was I thinking?" Indeed.

- Sarah Palin to appear on SNL this weekend! - SNL really scored a home run with the Tina Fey impersonations and it doesn't look like they're stopping anytime soon. Politics is good for one thing and one thing only: comedy. I just hope she really impresses Lorne Michaels. She's going to need a job in a few weeks.

- Angelina and Brad to adopt again! - I think they should do everyone a favor and adopt that brat Miley Cyrus. The girl has a split personality disorder, is making crappy TV shows/music/movies that are destroying any chance of your kid turning out cool, and is apparently sleeping with a 20-year-old model. Take her back to France with you and put her to work babysitting. She can come out when she's had time to reflect on what she's done.

Well, it's 5pm on Friday and you know what that means!! Everyone have a great weekend, stay out of jail, and make some memories.

haha thanks! I'll try to make it a bit more thorough next time. I just thought of it at 4:45 and was like why not? BTW, Leigh added the counter to our blog so she can probably explain how to do it. I tried, but it never worked!
