PopSofa Celebrity Lounge: Of Burlesque Shows, Jammies, Furs, Fried Chicken, Pimping Babies and Love Lost and Found

Paris Hilton must be the only person in the world who performs burlesque for her birthday celebration. Then again, she’s probably the only person in the world that believes she actually has any talent other than for appearing like a smug socialite.

Personally, I’d rather see Charlize Theron catching the Oscars in her pajamas. Charlize covered with a tent would be more beautiful than Paris can ever dream of. Of course, there’s Lindsay Lohan and her nude Marilyn Monroe tribute [all NSFW links]. But as much as I love Lindsay’s big naturals (I think) and her freckles, she’s no Marilyn with all those freckles.

Let’s hope the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin has jammies, especially if she follows PETA’s suggestion and donates her furs to the homeless. I wonder if PETA will go after Amy Winehouse next, for eating Kentucky fried duck.

Heather Mills will be able to buy all the fur coats and fried chicken she wants if Sir Paul McCartney agrees to sign their pending divorce agreement: nearly $110M - a $20M initial payment, and $2.5M per year for 14 years, plus a $2M fund for baby Beatrice.

Speaking of celebrities with too much money, George Clooney apparently spent $40,000 on a hotel room owned by Hugh Hefner’s Playboy empire. Gee I hope George’s girlfriend Sarah Larson was appreciative.

Kudos to Kate Hudson, who is currently in Fool’s Gold with shirtless Matthew McConaughey. She’s calling for a law to make it illegal for paparazzi to photograph kids. Adult celebrities might understand that paps are the price of celebrity, but the kids didn’t ask for it.

But what happens when you parents pimp you out without asking you? Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez are expecting twins any day now, and exclusive pics will reportedly go for between US$4-6M. Wow. I hope the doctor smacks both parents when the babies are born, just for pimping them out. Then again, J.Lo has to find some way to pay for the boutique hospital room and gowns. Might as well make the babes earn their keep once their born. (Wasn’t there something called a child labor law?)

Britney Spears might not be a child, but the paps have been like leeches to blood with her. Whether or not they contributed to her breakdown(s), she needs to get away for a while. Loudmouth but sexiest supermodel Heidi Klum has offered Britney a place to say for a couple of months, with herself and husband Seal.

Us bloggers might like to make fun of Britney, Lindsay Lohan and other stars, but most of us don’t really want anything bad to happen to them. Lohan blames the entertainment industry for Heath Ledger’s death - though I don’t recall paps really bugging him. Then again, Heath didn’t flash his vajayjay while stepping out of cars, or at Mick Jagger, like Jagger’s 51-year old ex-wife Jerry Hall did. Shudder to think.
