Update: Actor Mark Ruffalo's Brother Scott Ruffalo Dies

Sassy Smith — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 16:43:00 GMT

As we told you, Scott Ruffalo, brother of actor Mark Ruffalo, was shot in the head December 1 inside his Beverly Hills condo. He has, sadly, died from his wounds.

Ruffalo passed away at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles late Monday night.

Suspect Shaha Mishaal Adham, 26, turned herself in to police on Monday and she is currently being held without bail. The attemped murder charge will likely be changed to murder.

Brian Burton Scofield, 29, who is a friend of Adham's is also considered a "person of interest." He's been booked with misdemeanor traffic violations.

Scott Ruffalo was born in Kenosha, Wis., and later moved to San Diego with his family. He was reportedly living alone in Beverly Hills at the time of the shooting, but was married to Luzelena Ruffalo and has a stepdaughter, Lucinda.

Mark Ruffalo has made no comment about the shooting.

Our hearts go out to the family during this difficult time. Losing a family member in such a violent way is tragic and during the holiday season makes it that much more heartbreaking.

Watch Out For Your Soul, Britney: Madonna's HUNGRY

HerBadMother — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 17:27:00 GMT

Okay, so: Britney and Madonna took the stage together the other night, which, you know, is cool and all, but damn. What happened to these two women?

Britney, for once, looks young and healthy and pretty (even if her outfit is more Las Vegas Caterer In Hammer Pants than Hit Me Baby One More Time). This is the girl who shaved her head and ran off to Mexico with a greasy paparazzo? She cleans up good. Madonna, on the other hand, is frightening. Soul-chillingly frightening. As they said over at Dlisted: Vadge is quickly transforming into an Asian crypt keeper who has ventured out to steal the souls of our children and eat their fingernails. Also, that hat.

Britney better keep her babies far, far away from Madonna, because - soul-sucking or not - that woman is, for serious, the stuff of nightmares. This picture looks for all the world like a still from some evangelical-funded horror film in which some innocent choir-girl is tricked into laying her soul on the line in a wager with the Devil, live, onstage, in Rock and Roll Hell. That kind of thing terrifies children. It sure as hell terrifies me, and I'm a grown-up atheist.

I'll probably go to my own special hell for saying this, but could we please have The English Roses Madonna back? She was disturbing, but at least she didn't make me fear for my soul.

Here's some video. Watch it if you dare:

Madonna Scares Me

You know, there's this Madonna:

And then there's THIS Madonna:

I don't think that I could tolerate a playdate with either of them. The first, because she looks like she maybe - just maybe - writes those books with the blood of young virgins, and the second... well, the second because if I ever doubted that she wrote her childrens' books with the blood of young virgins, the image of Madonna in that second picture just eliminates that doubt.

Also, the crotch.

Watch out Miley and Selena, there's a new girl in town. She is taking singing lessons and may have a little bit better of a foundation to support her, if she decides to take on Hollywood.

Lilly Sheen is none other than Kate Beckinsale's daughter.

Will Kate let Lily follow her into the business? Will acting lessons follow?

LOST Harold Perrineau Welcomes Baby

Whit Honea — Sat, 31 May 2008 19:37:00 GMT

Harold Perrineau from LOST and his wife Brittany Robinson welcomed their second daughter earlier this month. The baby, Wynter Aria, joins big sister Aurora Robinson.

According to a rep for the family, "Mom and baby are doing fine, along with dad and big sister."

Wynter was born earlier than anticipated and Perrineau had to leave Hawaii during the filming of the LOST season finale to make it home for the birth.

Said a source: "He did run back to be with her because she went into labor early. There was a rush from filming the season finale and getting him out on time. There was a really big push to get him out on time. He had to leave days earlier than originally expected. The Lost team was phenomenal and really worked to make that happen."

Speaking of the finale, if you haven't seen the alternate endings that were filmed you can do so here.

Guess the Stars at Kingston's Birthday Party

Whit Honea — Mon, 26 May 2008 18:09:00 GMT

A bunch of our favorite celebrity parents showed up at the Beverly Hills home of Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale to celebrate Kingston's birthday. Can you guess who was in attendance?

It was a field day for the paparazzi, and a treat for you, the reader. Well, it's a treat for you, the viewer. The pictures are the good part. The words, not so much.

Joining a pregnant Gwen Stefani and her family were Christina Aguiler and her husband Jordan, along with baby Max (held by Gwen).

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden were there with Harlow (pony sold separately).

Victoria Beckham and Cruz were there, too.

Posh went shoe-less.

Basically everyone was there but us and Brangelina. At least we're in good company.

Maggie Gyllenhaal isn't messing around, and she sure as hell isn't walking all the way back to the coffee shop for a chaser.

Ramona, however, looks like she's cool walking anywhere.

Yes, I get that one of the drinks is most likely Peter's. Save the outrage.

Madonna Compares Tom Cruise To Malawi Orphans

HerBadMother — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 18:09:00 GMT

And, no, it wasn't because of his height, which would probably be the only obvious point of comparison, but whatever. Madonna thinks that Tom is like the orphans because he, like the Malawi orphans, gets a quote-unquote raw deal.

She told New York magazine: "I think he gets a raw deal, just as I think the orphans in Malawi get a raw deal."

Riiiight. You know, because he has to deal with all that criticism about being a multi-gazillionaire Scientologist and all. Which is exactly like being an orphan in a famine-ravaged country.

It would be funny if it weren't so stupid and offensive.

Madonna And Guy Try To Quell Divorce Rumors

HerBadMother — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 21:04:00 GMT

Madonna and were husband Guy Ritchie finally seen in public together, doing something couply (in this case, going to a cafe, which, I don't know about you, my husband and I do ALL THE TIME. Leave the kid, get dressed up, go have coffee. Because why go have dinner and/or get liquored up when you can sit in a cafe together sipping coffee together the same way you do every morning? FUN.)

I don't really care whether or not they're on the outs. Frankly, I can barely even remember Guy's name (helps, in this case, that he is named Guy, because you can just refer to that guy and not get it wrong), let alone that she's married to him, so whatever. I wouldn't blame him, though, if he left her. She's kinda scary. The skull-and-crossbone cuff that she's wearing doesn't help matters. Nor does the Cruella de Vil dead-animal boa. But maybe he gets off on that. Who knows?

Madonna's Got A Twin...

HerBadMother — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 21:33:00 GMT

...named Gwyn.

Seriously, when I first looked at this picture, I couldn't tell them apart. Apparently they're now frequenting the same gym, having dinner together... you know, mom-dating. Which wouldn't be creepy at all, if it weren't for the fact that it looks like they're morphing into each other. And, also, were it not for the fact that Madonna just terrifies me, for no particular reason, other than that she looks like she could and would kick my ass. If that's what gym-going does for you, then it's so not for me.

Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber are Safe from the Head Up

Oh safety, how boring you are. Who needs proper footwear and sufficient leg covering when you can take in the thrill of the ride on your exposed self? Seriously, who needs it?

Not Naomi Watts or Liev Schreiber, that's for sure. Of course they probably won't break any land speed records on the scooter, and Birkenstocks are really durable.

Mary Louise Parker Breaks Up With That Guy With The 'Stache

HerBadMother — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 02:53:00 GMT

I wanted to title this post, "Mary Louise Parker Breaks Up With That Porn Guy," but I though that that was maybe too obscure. Still: that's totally a porn mustache. That's also kind of a porn suit that he's wearing (maybe not so much porn star as porn producer, but still. SHINY PINSTRIPES.)

All of which is to say that, although I'm sure that he's an awesome guy beneath that facial hair, I can't say that I'm terribly surprised that their engagement didn't last that long.

Actually, my lack of surprise has less to do with the 'stache (tho', really, how many men other than Tom Selleck can really pull that look off?) and more with the fact that these two have broken up, like, a gazillion times over the last two years and, also, are almost never seen together - not even, notably, when M-L is out and about with her kids (all those pics of her with her newly adopted baby last year? NO MUSTACHE GUY. Where was he?). So, yeah, when they announced their engagement the other month, I was underwhelmed. And now that they've announced their disengagement, I'm also underwhelmed.

So there you go: celebrity gossip delivered up with a BIG FAT YAWN and a feeble attempt to drag porn into the mix.

Further Proof on My Liv Tyler is a Secret Agent Theory

As I mentioned earlier, I can't help but think that Liv Tyler has been getting smart. That's spy talk (kind of).

Exhibit A) Her spy outfit as discussed here.

Exhibit B) Her husband's name is Royston Langdon. Enough said.

Exhibit C) Milo is packing some serious hi-tech heat.

I just hope they're on our side.

Madonna: Saving the World With S&M And Print Magazines

HerBadMother — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 14:46:00 GMT

What's with Madonna and all these creepy black outfits that she's wearing on the covers of the 'Green Issue!' editions of what seems to be every freaking magazine on the newstand these days? I mean, is she in mourning for the Earth? Is she supposed to be Mother Earth, The Creepy Old Widow? Or some scary faux-Brit nanny who you just know whips the kids before she puts them to bed (in which case, what does that have to do with being green)? ALL OF THE ABOVE?

I'm, like, totally missing the symbolism here again, aren't I?

(And, um? Photoshopped much? No-one's waist is narrower than their head.)

Heidi Klum: Now With Less Nanny!

HerBadMother — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 14:25:00 GMT

So, wow, from the looks of this picture Heidi Klum is rolling with at least one or two fewer nannies than usual. I only see one in the background there. Of course, they could just all be just out of frame, but Heidi's looking pretty comfortable schlepping the boy - and she has been photographed being pretty hands-on with the playdates recently - so I'm guessing that maybe one or two of them have been getting some days off.

Anyway. How cute is the boy, for seriously? Nothin' cuter than a toddler who insists upon wearing his Spiderman costume everywhere. An awesome look that they really should do something with on Project Runway. (Challenge: turn children's superhero costumes into club wear. They'd be just the right size for the models, the muscle padding would make for good bustiers, and it would just be fantastically postmodern.)

No Doubt Gwen Stefani's at Work

Whit Honea — Sat, 29 Mar 2008 22:10:00 GMT

No Doubt is back together and working on a new album. You didn't think Gwen Stefani was going to let a little something like a bun in the oven keep her from getting back in the studio, did you?

According to a message that Gwen left on the band's website:

"Hey No Doubters

Been thinking so much about you all lately as I am back in the studio again with the boys trying to write some new music. What an amazing few years it has been. So inspired going through the dance record phase of my life. Thank you so much for all your support! The tour was incredible. We ended up doing over 100 shows around the world and it was so rewarding and again inspiring. Thank you to everyone who came out to see it…memories for life! Great to be home with with all my boys. Feels crazy to be pregnant all over again!!!!! We have been spending every day up in the little studio in our house trying to write music. My favorite part so far is just seeing the guys everyday and hanging out. We have so much fun together. The songwriting part is a bit slow on my part…I think it has something to do with the baby in my belly but I'm sure it is all of the process and I really believe this could be the most inspired No Doubt record so far. Cant wait to see what happens. All my love g"

There you go, straight from the pregnant lady's mouth.

Madonna: Put Some Clothes On While You Save The World. PLEASE?

HerBadMother — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 15:26:00 GMT

Seriously. Why does she keep putting on those fugly skimpy leotards and trying to be Rihanna? I mean, come on. She's, like, almost fifty or something, isn't she? Which makes her a bit more like a Earth Grandmother than Earth Mother, so why not put on a robe or something?

Not that she's really pulling of the whole Earth-protectress thing anyway. Not in an S&M-inspired leotard and stripper boots. It looks like she's going to dry-hump that stone image of the Earth any second. Isn't that the supposed to be the 'Green' issue of VF? Why, then, does it look like Madonna's getting ready to rape the Earth? Or is that, like, what they call symbolism?

Heidi and Her Boys

Whit Honea — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 22:27:00 GMT

Heidi Klum and her sons Henry and Johan spent some time in the park. Her daughter Leni is there too, I'm guessing somewhere left of that foot. Our left.

You may be wondering why Henry loves Koln, or as many of us know it, Cologne. This is why, oh wait, that's why I love it. I'm sure he has his reasons.
