Kate Gosselin: Hair, Make-up, Dinner Outing

Kate Gosselin and Ted Gibson Photographed Leaving MAC Store

Occassionally I come into info that I take a chance on - making a go of a photo op.  More ofter than not it pays off. 

So when I got word that reality diva mom of “Jon and Kate Plus 8″ fame - comprised of a village of temper tantrum throwing kids whose mother just so happens to be newly divorced from a butt ugly ass man as she still rides the “reality star” train – Kate Gosselin, I thought it might prove interesting given that I don’t generally shoot reality show participants.   Never mind that I have never laid eyes on her b4…

I dutifully waited and caught Ms. Gosselin leaving the Ted Gibson Salon on Fifth Avenue – with the shops proprietor, as they braved the cold to dash into a local MAC store some two blocks away and thought myself lucky for not having the herd surface at the moment of action.

Truth be told, I prefer to ask celebrities I come across for the photo as opposed to the “gangbang” styled pap scene.  And I always try my hardest to let the scene play itself out naturally without any interference.  The tactic generally results in my subject being somewhat agreeable to my endeavor and all are happy as we go about our business. 

Gosselin was far from interactive with me inspite of my attempts at flattery over her new tresses – courtesy of and fabulously coifed by Ted Gibson – but I carried on as she didn’t appear shocked, put-off or displaced in any fashion with my presence.  I hardly recognized her at all having not seen her in person myself during her long reign of tabloid coverage as the woman who spawned a litter preceeding “Octo-Mom.” Girl looked like she has been given a new lease on whatever make-believe reality she is existing and who the fuck am I to sprinkle salt on her Sundae.

But I still don’t get the reality show phenom.  For the most part, shows like Gosselin’s now defunct saga are a vapid waste of airtime, (stay tuned y’all, cuz word is she is in talks with TLC on another one…) cast with a bunch of folk bending over backward to be the center of attention as they play out a make-shift reality for the cameras sake.  There ain’t no reality in reality television – the key word in there being TV!  Unless it’s Heidi Klum’s….

But the tabloids have sold it to the masses and middle America seems to swallow with little gag-reflex to show for it.

Having snapped the photos I needed, I left the duo to their own devices only to have the nights further coverage pop up online over the weekend to the tune of her dining at celeb hotspot Butter restaurant with an unidentified man (it’s Ted Gibson you idiots!) by a swarm of paps who had been tipped off to her wherebouts. 

Need we wonder where the tip came from, hmmmmm….  And to add insult to frigid injury there is X17 Online and TMZ video!

Tim Tebow: Superbowl Ad Spot Dumbass

Tim Tebow Topless for GQ Magazine

You know the old saying – something about abstaining from talking bout politics, religion and well, I can never remember the third one actually.  That should attest to how much I listened…

Here is Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow with his mother in a commercial advertisement that allegedly went for $3 Million per 30 second spots during this years Superbowl.  The spot was paid for by Focus on the Family – an anti-pro-choice group looking to do away with Roe-v-Wade and a woman’s right to choose.

I can’t earnestly say that it is my place to tell Mr. twink Tebow and his mom anything on the topic – not really.  But I damn sure can comment on their conviction in taking what is a personal choice out to the masses! 

What is it about American’s that makes us think we can have a right to regulate what thy neighbor chooses to do behind their own closed doors. 

It is RTnM’s position that abortion and all that goes with the topic is – ultimately – a woman’s decision and if anyone else is allowed to chime in, it is non-other than the dumbass who neglected to either wrap the little man or get him snipped so as to prevent an unwanted pregnancy!  Full stop.

Were it that Tebow had gone and knocked up some wayward tail-gater ho and then spoke with said girl, thus concluding the two parties involved to carry on with an unwanted, unexpected and unplanned pregnancy – well, more power to it.  But get the fuck off the morality high tower and mind your fucking business.

And $3 million for 30 seconds?  W-O-W!  I daresay that there are hundreds of better uses for such an amount of $$$….  How bout Haiti, Mr. Tebow and folks at Focus on the Family.  Surely babies and families with nothing left – not even drinking water, are a cause that rival you wanting to regulate other people’s private business.  Just a thought. 

 

Mehcad Brooks: Hot Chocolate CK Man

Mehcad Brooks Shows Off His Filled Out CK Undies

Ok, when I first learned of the re-launch of the Calvin Klein underwear ads I totally bought into the fanfare of Kellan Lutz being the sole face of intended campaign.

Funny how that PR spin pulled the wool right over these jaded eyes.  Lord and behold, Lutz is merely one of a slew of hotties.

So in my hublest attempts to ratify my ig’nance – a thousand apologies we plea on our knees – here is True Blood’s hot chocolate Mehcad Brooks filling in his CK’s like only chocolate can! 

Now, I love me some vanilla but damnn if chocolate doesn’t get the job filled rite!~ 

Hands down, Brooks gives off the intensity of making a public want to come between him and his Calvins!

I would take my diamond earrings off and break out the vaseline to beat down whoever got in the way of me getting to pull those undies down.  He is a full course meal and I would make like I haven’t eaten in months… 

Kudos, to True Blood’s Brook on being chosen as one of the faces of CK’s X-Underwear Line!
