Well, it's only January. I don't think any of them should be buying green bananas just yet.

Never mind the green bananas -- it's the mushrooms they need to stay away from.

I am happy to hear that slim is Still with us. I think I will lift a beer tonight to a much longer life for Ottis Dewey Whitman, Jr. He is one of a kind.

That's good to know. I figured it was shot on some back lot at Warner Brothers.

Has anyone ever ruin a shot while filming is being done?
My daughter has. Last August she went to lunch with a friend who took her down this alley off Canal Street to park. After they ate, she pulls out of this alley onto Canal Street and the next thing she knows there is three cars two with cameras that pull her over screaming that she ruin the shot. She says, she then looks about twenty feet in front of her and there was Angelina Jolie laughing her ass off.
psssst.... Edited to stay on topic. Big odds in Patrick Swayze (100/1)
Celebrity DEATH WATCH: Happy New Year Britney!
Has young Spears kicked off the decline already?
As the bells clanged to welcome the world to 2008, fate was no doubt busy calling time on some fragile celebrity lives. Whether this lot will make it to 2009 is anyones guess, and yet the predetermined life of Britney appears to be hurtling towards the expected suicide finish. But will the legend be cemented before Lohan gets her drunken hands on some premature death?
Britney Spears (5/4)
Former child star, now a barking madwoman, Britney is the Judy Garland (barbiturates overdose, 1969) for her generation. Constantly under the glare of the spotlight, she has aired her genitals, shaved her hair, guzzled booze, taken her little babies hostage, been strapped into a hospital bed, and - worse still - taken a paparazzo for a boyfriend. Garland’s Wizard of Oz co-star Ray Bolger noted that the former child actress “just plain wore out”. Britney's old colleagues presumably find her equally worn out/bananas.
Lindsay Lohan (2/1)
The whisper on the street is that Lohan has already had a couple of bashes at ending it all, both about as successful as her smooth passage into adulthood. Now battling to stay away from drink and drugs, her demonstration on how to drink champagne straight from the bottle on New Years Eve hints that she isn't quite as "sober" as people might suggest. May yet emulate the great Marilyn Monroe (sleeping pills, 1962) by dying prematurely.
Amy Winehouse (5/1)
The mountainous lines of cocaine, the gigantic horse-filled needles, self harm, body issues and an incarcerated husband – none of them conventional ingredients for a long and happy life. As things stand she looks most likely for some kind of Sid Vicious (1979)/ Janis Joplin (1970) heroin-based misadventure.
Owen Wilson (8/1)
Rumours abound that the prominently-nosed actor liked to steamroller his way through the Playboy mansion and now he's been spotted wondering around in America with his shoes off - a sure sign of having problem (the guy can easily afford NICE shoes). Global bad-boy Steve Coogan took him on a tour of drugs hell last year - might the journey continue, making him the next John Belushi (cocaine/heroin overdose, 1982).
Pete Doherty (10/1)
It’s all very well Doherty lording it up on Civvy Street, repeatedly in and out of court for committing exactly the same crime of parading around with a variety of drugs spilling from his pockets. But his next appointment with a judge could see him doing hard time, complete with ritual shower beatings. An early death would surely fit his rock star fantasy, which grubby tabloids would insist parallels Sid Vicious, but which Doherty would no doubt see more in the vein of Nick Drake (overdose, 1974).
Robbie Williams (18/1)
Williams has spent years droning on and on about how fame might look brilliant, but actually he’s really down about it. A British institution in the same mould as Tony Hancock (suicide, 1968), he might soon jack it all in. "Things just went wrong too many times," said Hancock in his suicide note. Could Take That flying high again be classed as yet another thing ‘going wrong’ for the smirking performer, and recovering espresso addict?
The other runners
Steven Segal (50/1)
Hollywood gossiping circles insist that Segal is in a slough of despond at the state of his once-glorious career. He could yet rise to tenth-Dan status in a mystical martial art that involves simple household ropes, an overhead fan, and a stool.
Sylvester Stallone (80/1)
Once overheard shouting “cup my balls” to a fellating stranger during a fire alarm in a hotel, Sly could prove to be the next Michael Hutchence (trousers down, hotel room, belt, 1997). Such disregard for health and safety combined with a deep yearning for sexual adventure might just be Rambo’s Achilles heel.
Patrick Swayze (100/1)
James Dean (car smash, 1955) died thanks to his love of fast cars and danger. Hollywood wild man Patrick Swayze has a similar problem – dicking around with helicopter controls on his way to the Sundance film festival, when clearly out of his mind on cocaine. Could surprise everyone by dirty dancing his way to an early(ish) grave.

DT's story reminds me of the time the Hedo Spanksgiving Parade showed up at Sandals right as some yuppie couple was taking wedding pictures. They weren't amused.

She describes him as 'intense' 'bloody hard work' and 'a deeply troubled young man' but not suicide material. A taste for having his balls cupped when he's being blown to having some kind of death wish is quite a leap!! Simon |

Hilary Amy Winehouse is a great soul, jazz, rhythm and blues, singer/songwriter. She is on my list. She is hooked into one nasty drug and has a hell of a mountain to climb. I hope she makes it. Her first step would be, say yes to rehab. psssst.... Screw Guilt!!!! |

I loved "Blue Thunder." But my favorite Roy Scheider movie has got to be "52 Pick-Up." Great revenge flick. If you haven't seen it, go rent it......Jake ("Seven-Ups" being a close second)

Back in the day, when it pertains to Ann Margret. I'll take the gorgeous body. psssst.... Can't count the times (back in the day) I had her Playboy spread in the bathroom. |
