What are we to believe about this huge Madonna/Guy Ritchie/A-Rod mess? Celebrity news media have been buzzing all weekend and into today about divorces - A-Rod’s, which was filed this morning, and Madonna’s imminent one. There is far too much hyperbole firing at us from every single direction. Everyone has something different to say. Let’s go through what’s being said:

Yesterday, People reported that Madonna and Guy are not divorcing, and Madonna has nothing to do with A-Rod’s marriage troubles. Says Madge: "My husband and I are not planning on getting a divorce. I know Alex Rodriguez through Guy Oseary, who manages both of us. I brought my kids to a Yankee game. I am not romantically involved in any way with Alex Rodriguez. I have nothing to do with the state of his marriage or what spiritual path he may choose to study.”

Today, TMZ (along with everyone else) reports that A-Rod’s wife Cynthia has filed for divorce because of numerous extramarital affairs, and wants the $12 house, alimony and the Maybach. Hey, if you’re gonna ask for the ostentatious home, might as well go for the $400,000 wheels as well. Cynthia’s lawyer says that they will not lose the case, and A-Rod will likely need to pony up a lot of coin. Get your fill of the info here:

But perhaps the best categorization of this whole fiasco came today from TMZ, which states that Madonna is simply playing the media to her advantage, and is only biding her time until the tour is over to “announce” the split from Ritchie. TMZ has been known to be rather erroneous in their reporting, but I’m guessing that this one is right on the mark. Madonna has a rep for being ruthless, and this latest bit of info doesn’t surprise me. Watch for it: as soon as the tour is over, Madonna and Guy Ritchie will be officially divorced. If she is playing us, am I upset about it? Not one bit. People love their gossip too much, and if she wants to play with people’s minds, and the media is going to eat it up, why not? Here’s the final (and likely truthful) word:

Fergie: BEFORE All the Plastic Surgery

Man, too much talk about Madonna. Let’s move onto another Diva. TMZ has photos of Stacy Ferguson (best known as Fergie) from 1989, which don’t look a thing like the Fergie we know today. Seriously, how much plastic surgery has this chick gone through? She was prettier before.

The Price is WRONG, And Someone Is MAD!

Over the weekend, the TV Guide website ran a scathing piece about how the upcoming season of The Price is Right is going to be completely changed – and not for the better. It even pointed fingers at high-ranking executives at Freemantle Media, who own the show. The article noted how upset new host Drew Carey is about the changes, and concluded that the modifications to the show will eventually be its demise. As I clicked on the link I had saved, I noticed that it’s been removed from the site. What’s up with that? So with a little research, we found the post on another blog site. Very interesting stuff!!! This could end up being quite the controversy: stay tuned and I’ll let you know as soon as we come up with more information!

Latest Hollywood Mama: Nicole Kidman!

Nope, not Angelina (yet). Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are proud parents of a baby girl, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. Their rep said the baby was born Monday morning in Nashville, weighed 6 pounds, 7 ounces, and that both mother and baby are very well. Keith also posted a statement on his website, "Earlier this morning Nic gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. We want to thank everybody that has kept us in their thoughts and prayers. We feel very blessed and grateful that we can share this joy with all of you today." Congrats to the happy couple! I’m betting the baby has one HUGE forehead, much like mama Nicole. This is one baby pic I’d love to see!

Hands Up If You’re Gonna Watch The Osbourne’s Variety Show

Didn’t think so. Neither am I. Who wants to see a variety show with the Osbournes? It was hard enough watching their reality show. Two spoiled kids, a squeaky (though lovable) mom, and Ozzy, who could barely walk or talk. I’m sure that pity was not the emotion they were aiming for with their reality show, but that’s what I felt most. A variety show will be worse. Pass.

It’s Official: Hollywood Now Owns The Weather, Too!

Big companies pretty much own almost everything these days, but now you can add the weather to the asset column of The Man. Okay, not really the weather per se, but at least the Weather Channel. NBC Universal has just purchased The Weather Channel for $3.5 Billion in cash. 120 million people use the Weather Channel each month in some capacity. Ya think this is a huge advertising opportunity for NBC Universal?
