June 5th, 2010 Manny

I know it’s a shocker but it’s true. In a recent interview, Lady  Gaga started dissing Taylor Swift but ended up heaping a genuine praise instead.

Gaga was asked to name a song she is embarrassed to like, her answer was, “That Taylor Swift song? ‘You Belong With Me’? Oh my God! When it comes on the radio, I sing it so loud.” But she clarified that she’s not slamming Taylor’s tune.

Gaga explained that her embarrassment comes mostly from singing it “so freely” and “so loud” whenever she hears it. “It’s very whimsical in a way that I’m not necessarily whimsical every day,” she noted.

Also, she doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with the song at all. “It’s a great song!” she insists. Her final words are, “I didn’t mean that in a bad way, Taylor. I think you’re lovely and beautiful, and I think you’re a great songwriter.”

Actress Rue McClanahan, 76, has died after suffering a massive stroke. McClanahan was best known for her award-winning role as man-crazy Southern belle on TV comedy “The Golden Girls.”

According to her manager, she died in a New York City hospital in the early hours of Thursday morning with family members by her side. She had suffered a minor stroke last November while recovering from heart bypass surgery.

Her death leaves Betty White, 88, as the only surviving member of ‘The Golden Girls” main cast following the deaths of Bea Arthur in 2009 and Estelle Getty in 2008. White called McClanahan “a close and dear friend” and she treasured their relationship. “It hurts more than I even thought it would, if that’s possible,” White said.

Aside from winning an Emmy, McClanahan earned Emmy nods 3 other times and was also nominated for 3 Golden Globe honors in the same role.

On personal note: I really love her as Blanche Devereaux. She always makes me laugh every time I watch “The Golden Girls”. It breaks my heart to know that she is gone. I will miss her forever.

June 2nd, 2010 Manny

A Twitter campaign wants “Community” actor Donald Glover to be the first African American Spider-Man. This weekend the Twitter hashtag “donald4spiderman” became the #3 trending topic in the U.S., and the campaign is still gaining steam.

It started after surveying the 5 mostly unknown white actors said to be vying for the Peter Parker role, the writer for  the sci-fi site io9.com, Marc Bernadin called it “bland”. He asked, “In this day and age, why does Spidey have to be a white guy?” In response, commenters to Bernadin’s site threw out Donald Glover’s name as a possible contender. That’s when the Twitter campaign was born.
