The woman is fierce!! I just watched Christina’s interview on ABC’s site. She’s going to start a program to pay for breast cancer treatment for women who can’t afford it.
Privately, she admits, “Sometimes I cry. Sometimes I scream, and I get really angry and I get really into wallowing in self-pity sometimes, and I think it’s all part of healing.”
“My decision, after looking at all the treatment plans that were possibilities for me, the only one that seemed the most logical and the one that was going to work for me was to have a bilateral mastectomy,” said Applegate. “So basically I had a prophylactic double mastectomies.”
Explaining her rationale in taking that dramatic step, she said, “I didn’t want to go back to the doctors every four months for testing and squishing and everything. I just wanted to kind of be rid of this whole thing for me. This was the choice that I made, and it was a tough one.”
The surgery took place three weeks ago. She did not undergo radiation or chemotherapy.
Applegate, whose initial reaction when she received her diagnosis, was. “Oh my god. I was so pissed off, so mad … I was just shaking.” But then, she said, “Immediately I had to go into take-care-of-business mode.”
Over the next eight months she will undergo reconstructive surgery. I’m gonna have cute boobs till I’m 90.”
I am SO excited to see this People magazine cover and know that some amazing spread is within the pages of the celeb ass-kissing publication! If straight couples sell their photos, there’s no reason gay and lesbian couples shouldn’t follow suit; I got a little worried when I found out how small the ceremony was, but they’ve sold some pics anyway. They look stunning, so happy!
It was an evening of love, laughter, and a few tears for Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi, who exchanged personal wedding vows in front of their closest family and friends on Saturday at their home in L.A.
In an exclusive interview and photos, DeGeneres, 50, and de Rossi, 35, share the most romantic moments of the night with PEOPLE.
“What can I say? I’m the luckiest girl in the world,” says DeGeneres. “She’s officially off the market. No one else gets her. And now she’ll cook and clean for me.”
Amid candles and flowers by Mark’s Garden, both brides, wearing designs by Zac Posen, sat on floor pillows along with author Wayne Dyer, who officiated the ceremony.
After exchanging Neil Lane rings, the couple and their guests sat down for an all-vegan menu prepared by their personal chef David Silberkleit while Sweet Lady Jane created a vegan red velvet cake for the celebration.
“The love we felt from the people surrounding us, and the love we have for each other, made this the most beautiful and emotional day,” says de Rossi. “And one that we’ll never forget.”
A Texas school district will let teachers bring guns to class this fall, the district’s superintendent said on Friday, in what experts said appeared to be a first in the United States.
The Harrold Independent School District unanimously approved the plan and parents have not objected, said the district’s superintendent, David Thweatt.
“We have a lock-down situation, we have cameras, but the question we had to answer is, ‘What if somebody gets in?” he said. “It’s just common sense.”
Teachers have to be certified to carry a concealed handgun and get crisis training and permission from school officials.
Recent school shootings in the United States have prompted some calls for school officials to allow students and teachers to carry legally concealed weapons into classrooms.
I hope these teachers and parents won’t be surprised when students mob teachers, take their guns and have shoot outs. Security should handle this. I’d like to be proven wrong, though. Good luck, Texans.
The Fool’s Gold star, 29 — who recently split from boyfriend Lance Armstrong — has been speed-dialing Owen.
“He felt betrayed when she dumped him for his friend Lance. But after a while, he caved in and has been sweet to her.”
Friends worry that Owen, who tried to commit suicide in 2007 after splitting from Kate the first time, will once again fall under the single mom’s spell.
Adds a source, “It’s not fair to Owen, because he really cares for her and ends up getting hurt.”
So Kate is definitely ridin’ the crazy train, full speed, psycho-ass-bitch style. Kate reminds me of myself.
This morning I started reading, It’s Called a Breakup Because It’s Broken. I tend to dive into books months, if not, years later. I cracked it open and read a few dozen pages before I began updating POTP today.
Basically, I’m still hung up on my “ex” aka bed buddy and it sucks ass! If Brad Pitt fucked Matt Damon and they made a baby, you’d have my ex, I’ll call him Rob.
My gawd the man is hawt, which should have been a red flag - TROUBLE! But I didn’t care. I won’t attempt to describe his sexiness because it will bring me to tears, lmao. Funny thing is, I am so past the psycho ass bitch stage. Really, I am. But then you meet someone so God damn hot, with a perpetual smile, deep dimples, an 8-pack to boot, intelligence and a matching sense of humor, and you go a little ape shiz.
In fact, Rob’s ex got depressed and overdosed and died after their breakup, and he has a history of making his ex-girlfriends go bat shit post-breakup and they’ve retaliated with various brilliant and cruel ways of getting revenge. Another red flag! If a guy makes his exes go ape shiz, his dick is lethal, he’ll give you some John Mayer-like, life changing sex and you’ll start thinking Britney shaving her head after her divorce wasn’t so crazy after all.
So, I just wanted to recommend this book because He’s Just Not That Into You is genius and I expect this book to be equally as educational and fun. Read it, Kate Hudson!
Heidi said the song is about “when you fall in love with someone… and you’re just overdosing off of their love.”
This is SO weird. Yesterday while I was watching all the hyped up “Hills” shows on MTV yesterday, I thought, how come Heidi hasn’t leaked some shitty song to keep herself famous?! Well, Heidi has delivered. Again. Team Heidi forever!
