In The News: Halle's Expecting, Jerry Lewis Drops The F-Bomb, Whoopi Defends Vick, Craig Changes His Mind




Halle Berry confirmed to Access Hollywood's Nancy Odell that she is indeed 3 months pregnant after rumors swirled for months about her expectancy. The 41 year old actress met current boyfriend and soon to be dad Gabriel Aubrey in November 2005. Halle has long mentioned her desire to start a family and after two failed marriages with David Justice and Eric Benet that produced no children, Halle is estatic about finally becoming a mother. But of course the haters have already started to type away at their keyboards in judgement of the un-wed mother. Are we living in the year 200 A.D. ? This is what they're saying below:





Following on the heels of Isaiah Washington's infamous gay slur, comedian and philanthropist Jerry Lewis dropped the F-bomb during his annual Labor Day Telethon in support of Muscular Dystrophy. In the 18th hour of his annual MDA Telethon, a visibly weary Lewis wandered about the stage trying to dodge the cameraman while making comments on various people. At one point, he stopped and referenced the cameraman and his family: "Your family has come to see you...you remember Bart, your oldest son...Jesse, the illiterate f**." Within hours GLAAD President Neil Giuilano was demanding an apology for Lewis' use of the anti slur and the apology came swiftly. "I apologize to anyone who was offended, everyone who knows me understands that I hold no prejudices in this regard. In the family atmosphere of the telethon, I forget that not everyone knows me that well. "That something like this would distract from the true purpose of the telethon pains me deeply. ... I accept responsibility for what I said. There are no excuses," he said. This is what folks are saying over at TMZ.com :






Rosie O'Donnell may be gone from The View but who needs Rosie when you can have Whoopi. The new moderator of The View has already begun to raise a few eyebrows after defending troubled NFL player Michael Vick and his role in torturing dogs. Goldberg said that "from where he comes from" in the South, dogfighting isn't that unusual."It's like cockfighting in Puerto Rico," she said. "There are certain things that are indicative to certain parts of the country." Watching Joy Behar's reaction to Whoopi's defense of Vick was priceless as she was clearly on the opposite side of the argument. Check out the video here .



Finally, Senator Larry Craig is reconsidering his resignation and may be planning to run for the office he's held for the past 27 years in 2008, despite the outcry from his Republican colleagues to step down. It seems this poor closet case is dead set on further embarrasing himself and his family. Craig says he pleaded guilty in hopes the scandal would disappear. News flash! Maybe if he disappeared for a while his bathroom antics would probably be forgotten in a few years time. A word of advice Senator, go away, enjoy your retirement and maybe if you tell yourself enough that you're not gay you'll at least succeed at convincing one person.

  1. wow they are really knocking her down. While the better way to have a family would be to have to parents in the same household, preferably married. If she didn't do it that way, so what! Its her life let her live it! Whoever is writing these sharp thoughts how about we shine a light on your family and see how F*@*ed up their lfe and family is!
