Bret Michaels & Heidi Montag Are Not Dead


I couldn't decide what story I thought was more ridiculous this weekend. For much of the weekend I really thought the whole Heidi Montag going to the hospital was the most ridiculous, but then last night I started seeing all these headlines that screamed out, Bret Michaels Injured At The Tony Awards!!! Huge banner headlines like the guy was on life support or something. Everywhere you looked the top story was Bret getting injured. Umm, the guy hit his face on a wall or some scenery and didn't even break a nose or any bone and went out to a bunch of parties last night. When I watched the video below I was more concerned with the tornado watch you can see in the corner of the screen. Bret Michaels strutting and hitting his face just doesn't seem to reach the same level of concern.

Do you know how many times I run into crap everyday at home and work? You don't see huge banner headlines when that happens. When you saw all the headlines and saw Bret Michaels was injured you thought it was serious didn't you? That is the problem sometimes with gossip. People always want to create some drama and so will make something out of literally nothing.

Speaking of nothing, the whole Heidi and Spencer thing made me sick. If I am NBC I just pull this whole damn thing off the air. I write a check to the charities involved for $1M and just throw on old reruns of Alf. Why the hell not? People would watch it out of curiosity and everyone in Ben Silverman's office could stop popping Tums every few seconds.

The problem with this show is: they picked Speidi; are in Costa Rica; ITV and NBC are not communicating well; and every contestant and staffer has a cell phone. So, then you have people calling their people who are calling TMZ who reports something and the gets a statement from NBC contradicting something, but ITV who are the producers have a different statement and all it really comes down to is the fact that Heidi and Spencer should be dropped off 120 miles off the coast of Costa Rica on Isla Nublar and let them fend for themselves. The two of them have basically destroyed the entire summer schedule of a network. It is like one of those movies where some hapless person pulls a plug or does something wrong, and you feel sorry for them. Not here. Here I would bring out the full power and might of GE and crush Speidi like bugs.
