Barbara Walters Announces Ten Most Fascinating People of 2011

Posted by Natalia Buia on November 30th, 2011

Barbara Walters always wraps up the year by announcing the top ten people that have fascinated her the most.

She just unveiled the top 9, according to ABC News.

Royal family member Pippa Middleton made the list. She certainly made heads turn during the Royal Wedding this summer.

Another Brit, Simon Cowell made the list, probably for his controversial roles as judges on popular talent shows. And maybe for finally joining the Twitterverse.

Then there’s the two actors who play gay parents on the hit show “Modern Family”, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Eric Stonestreet.

Captain of the New York Yankee, Derek Jeter also made the list. It’s probably under her contract to include at least one athlete every year.

Donal Trump trumped other business tycoons by appearing on Barbaras list. I bet he paid her a pretty penny for it.

Katy Perry also fascinated Barbara and the rest of the world with her lavish wedding to Russell Brand and all her number one hit singles off of “Teenage Dreams”.

Barbara also included the entire Kardashian family on the year-end list, hence the photo posted above. I think she misinteruperated “fascninating” for “annoying”, though.

The number one person who was the most fascinating person of 2011 will remain a mystery, until her special airs on ABC Wednesday December 14.

Donald Trump Backs Mac Miller

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 6th, 2011

If you are a 19 year old white rapper, do you really care what Donald Trump thinks? Well, if you are Mac Miller you care.

Mac got the attention of Donald after his “Donald Trump” video got over 20 million views on YouTube.

“It’s named ‘Donald Trump.’ Maybe he should pay me a lot of money,” says Donald. “I am proud of him. “I haven’t actually seen the language. It’s a little bit hard to understand on the song itself.  But this kid is the new Eminem. Everybody says he’s fantastic.”

We don’t think Mac liked the Eminem comparison. When we interviewed Mac one of the conditions of the interview was not comparing him to Eminem.

Photos of Donald Trump and Family Costing $20,000

Posted by andPOP Staff on June 5th, 2011

Leave it to Donald Trump to exploit money anyway he can. If you are interested in photos of Donald with his wife and family at Mar-a-Lago, prepare to write a cheque for $20,000.

There is some confusion in how this works, but Gawker reports Getty Images takes a cut, and passes the rest on to “the money-grubbing celebrity.” Gawker also reports that Donald Trump knows nothing about this supposed alliance with Getty.

Anyways, believe it or not andPOP will not be purchasing these photos. In fact, we feel like douches writing this article in the first place.

President Obama roasts Donald Trump

Posted by Kimberly Rupnarain on May 1st, 2011

The Donald isn’t too happy about this one.

American President Barack Obama, slayed the crowd on Saturday at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C. Using the same gift of speech that played a large part in his election, Obama executed a hilarious speech roasting Donald Trump, who cameras showed as clearly unimpressed.

“I know he’s taken some flak lately,” said Obama, “but no one is happier, no one is prouder to put this birth certificate matter to rest than the Donald.”

Trump, who was reportedly considering running for President of the United States in 2012, has recently been on Obama’s case to produce proof of American citizenship. After the birth certificate was released last Wednesday, Trump spouted off saying, “Today I’m very proud of myself, because I’ve accomplished something that no one else has been able to accomplish.”

Obama continued on in his speech, saying, “And that’s because he can finally get back to focusing on the issues that matter – like, did we fake the moon landing? What really happened in Roswell? And where are Biggie and Tupac?”

With the supporting laughter and applause of his audience, Obama went on to wryly praise Trump’s “credentials and breadth of experience.”

“In an episode of Celebrity Apprentice, at the steakhouse, the men’s cooking team cooking did not impress the judges from Omaha Steaks. And there was a lot of blame to go around,” he said.

“But you, Mr. Trump, recognized that the real problem was a lack of leadership. You fired Gary Busey. And these are the kind of decisions that would keep me up at night.”

After being beaten so badly, you’d think Trump would have the good graces to fake a laugh and pretend to be good-natured about the whole thing. Instead he sat there giving Obama the stink-eye with a bratty pout plastered on his face.

Check out the video of Obama’s hilarious speech, and Donald Trump’s even funnier reaction here.

Donald Trump and Jerry Seinfeld Feud over Barack Obama

Posted by andPOP Staff on April 22nd, 2011

Yet another celebrity feud – this time it’s between Donald Trump and Jerry Seinfeld. Donald is pissed that Seinfeld pulled out of a charity event, and he has called him out in an open letter.

According to Page Six, Seinfeld was scheduled to attend a Sept. 13 event for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the Eric Trump Foundation. However Seinfeld has pulled out over remarks Donald made regarding President Obama.

“I just learned you canceled a show for my son’s charity,” Trump wrote to Seinfeld, “because of the fact that I am being very aggressive with respect to President Obama, who is doing an absolutely terrible job as our leader.”

“We don’t care that you broke your commitment,” he continued, “even though the children of St. Jude are very disappointed, and despite the fact that your manager clearly stated you are ‘truly a man of his word.’”

Adding insult to injury, Trump took a shot at Seinfeld’s NBC show, ‘The Marriage Ref,’ which Trump appeared on last year.

“What I do feel badly about is that I agreed to do, and did, your failed show, ‘The Marriage Ref,’ even though I thought it was absolutely terrible,” Trump wrote. “Despite its poor ratings, I didn’t cancel on you like you canceled on my son and St. Jude. I only wish I did.”

So this feud does have some merit, as it seems to be politically based. However leave it to Donald Trump to make it a childish pissing match. We side with Seinfeld.

Larry King Calls Anderson Cooper a “She”

Posted by Megan MacKay on March 14th, 2011

Comedy Central’s Roast of Donald Trump supposedly crossed the line last week when Larry King referred to Anderson Cooper as a “she.”

Perez Hilton reports that while introducing Cooper, Larry King said “Let’s see what she’s up to.”

Oh come on! How old is Larry King? It was probably a major senior’s slip, considering he’s like a leathery bat-human hybrid at this point in his life! Plus that’s not even a good joke!

…oh wait, you say this was at a roast? So then it was definitely on purpose then because roasts are never funny even when they try to be.

You heard us! NEVER FUNNY! Donald Trump’s will be just as boring when it airs, so it’s no surprise that mysterious ‘controversy’ is bubbling up surrounding it! We don’t want to say ‘conspiracy theory’ but why else would anyone be watching?

That being said, that was not very LGBTQ friendly Mr. King! We don’t approve.

Donald Trump Says ‘No’ To Rachel Uchitel for ‘Celebrity Apprentice’

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 19th, 2010

Donald Trump initially offered Rachel Uchitel a spot on NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice,” however Trump has taken the offer back.

PerezHilton reports that once he heard that Uchitel was appearing on “Celebrity Rehab,” he rescinded his offer.

“It’s a terrible decision. We have zero interest in her now. Look at what Celebrity Apprentice did for Piers Morgan. He’s getting Larry King’s job. She made a bad mistake.

Celebrity Apprentice is a huge show and Celebrity Rehab is not. I have 10 people who want to be on the show for every slot that’s available. I’m moving on.”

Donald Trump Wants Tiger Woods’ Mistress on ‘The Celebrity Apprentice’

Posted by Jacob Morris on July 16th, 2010

The title pretty much says it all.  Sources tell TMZ that Donald Trump personally called one of Tiger Woods’ old lady friends, Rachel Uchitel, and offered her a spot on the upcoming season of The Celebrity Apprentice.

It likely wouldn’t be too difficult for Uchitel to win the competition, should she accept the offer.  She’s got experience with winning large sums of money, namely the $10 million settlement she got from Tiger Woods.

Uchitel took a call from TMZ and let them know that she is “absolutely” going to take the offer.  So, you should see her on the show as long as NBC decides she’s a good fit.

The only question is should the wives of the other celebrities on the show be worried?

Stargate Universe Takes An Edgier Turn With Louis Ferreira As Its Colonel

Posted by Ilan Mester on October 2nd, 2009

Louis FerreiraLouis Ferreira and I share more than one thing in common: we both speak Portuguese aside from English and both of us were not Sci-Fi kind of guys before Stargate Universe — the latest entity in the space-themed franchise, which premiers today at 9 p.m. exclusively on Space.

Ferreira’s resume includes an impressive amount of TV and film work. His characters range from The Donald himself in a Trump TV-movie, to lead roles in shows like “Trinity” and “Missing,” guest spots on “24” and “CSI Miami,” among tens of other TV series and films, including a a role in this year’s “Grey Gardens” with Drew Barrymore. Still, Sci-Fi remained unexplored territory for the actor (aside from a very short stint on “Star Trek”).

So how did he wind up on one of the most successful Sci-Fi franchises of all time? It’s actually quite a serendipitous story which Fereira (formerly known as Justin Louis) shared with andPOP.

Side story: when the Portuguese-born, Toronto-raised actor kicked off his career in the late ‘80s, early ‘90s, Vancouver was a booming destination for film productions so he’d go there whenever work would dry up in Toronto. “I remember being in my twenties and being like, ‘If I could have the ultimate lifestyle, it would be the farm in Toronto, the apartment in New York’ and I said, ‘a boat!’ If you could live on a boat like “Miami Vice” you would want to do it in Vancouver,” shared the Gemini winner.

Carrie Prejean, the former Miss California who made headlines for opposing same-sex marriage, has been forced to leave her post by Donald Trump.

“I told Carrie she needed to get back to work and honor her contract with the Miss California USA Organization and I gave her the opportunity to do so,” Trump said in a statement. “Unfortunately it just doesn’t look like it is going to happen.

“Carrie is a beautiful young woman and I wish her well as she pursues her other interests.”

Andy Dick Forcibly Removed From US Talk Show

Posted by andPOP Staff on February 5th, 2007

Comedian ANDY DICK was forcibly removed by security during an appearance on US talk show JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE Friday night, after repeatedly touching guest IVANKA TRUMP without her permission.

Trump, the daughter of real estate mogul DONALD TRUMP, was attempting to promote her reality show THE APPRENTICE, when Dick kept interrupting her with rude comments.

The troubled comedian repeatedly rubbed Trump’s legs and touched her hair, while Kimmel begged him to behave himself.

When Dick asked Trump to “give him a big, fat, sloppy wet kiss right on the lips” and grabbed her arm, Kimmel called in two security guards.

The talk show host carried Dick’s feet and helped the guards drag him out of the studio.

Trump was a good sport after the incident telling Kimmel, “That was brilliant. See, that was a much more entertaining segment.

“I could sit here and talk to you about the buildings I’m building in Chicago and Las Vegas, but I’m sure you’d much prefer to see Andy Dick actually forcefully removed from a stage.”

Donald Trump Files $10M Lawsuit

Posted by andPOP Staff on December 27th, 2006

He said he’d do it and he did it – the Donald is suing.

Although it’s not his latest target, Rosie O’Donnell Donald Trump is suing, it’s his last one, the city of Palm Beach in Florida.

E! Online is reporting that the Donald has filed a $10 million lawsuit against the city, who ordered him to take down his American Flag in October. Trump is claiming the city is violating his right to free speech.

City officials ordered Trump to take down his flag, saying he needed a building permit because the flag was over the city’s limits. Trump claims the city has unfairly targeted him, while allowing other citizens to raise similar flags. The lawsuit was filed last Thursday.

Trump is also looking for lawyer’s fees to be covered and says he will donate any money he wins to veterans who return home from Iraq.

Miss USA to Keep Crown: Trump

Posted by andPOP Staff on December 20th, 2006

The Miss USA who has been more misbehaviour lately, will be allowed to keep her crown for the rest of her term.

E! Online reports that despite the allegations of hard partying, canceled photo ops and all-around bad role modeling, Tara Conner will keep her crown, this coming from the mouth of Donald Trump.

“I’ve always been a believer in second chances,” Trump, who owns both the Miss USA and the Miss. Universe Pageants, said at a press conference.

He also would not entertain any questions about the reported de-crowning of Conner, only saying he made a last minute ruling on whether or not she keeps the crown because she is a “good person.”

He also noted that she will be checking into rehab (though he did not disclose which one), and that her duties will be smaller while she “receives the help she needs during this personal time.”

The Donald Not Pleased with Angelina

Posted by andPOP Staff on October 11th, 2006

While he may praise Brad Pitt, Donald Trump had some harsh words for Angelina Jolie.

Hollywood.com reports that the businessman “blasted” Jolie for being estranged from her father, actor Jon Voight, saying that she “treats him like a dog” and should allow him to see his grand children on Larry King Live.

“I know her father. Her father is a nice guy. I think she treats him like a dog but maybe they have some kind of a thing.

“I mean this poor sap, he comes along and he practically begs her, ‘I want to see my grandson (Maddox). I want to see this.’ I mean, if I were with him, I’d say, ‘Forget it. It’s over.’

“She just treats him terribly. She’s been with so many guys she makes me look like a baby… And I just don’t even find her attractive. That has nothing to do with why I said it, though.”

However, the Donald had a turnaround on another celeb he recently criticized – K. Fed.

“I heard the other day that his all-time hero is Donald Trump. You know when somebody likes you, you say, ‘Hey.’ So, I totally changed my mind. I think Kevin Federline is fantastic.”

The Donald Applauds Pitt

Posted by andPOP Staff on October 4th, 2006

Donald Trump applauds Brad Pitt’s public statement that he will not marry Angelina Jolie until same sex marriage is legal in the United States, Life Style Extra reports.

The Donald calls it an “excellent” way for Pitt to remain a bachelor and still enjoy the perks of being in a relationship.

“It makes him look really concerned about the plight of other people. Yet at the same time, he doesn’t have to get married. This guy is smarter than I thought,” Trump wrote on his blog.

Trump also has advice for other celebrities marriages. He recommends Paris Hilton get a pre-nup should she ever wed, and has admitted he is “worried” about Britney Spears.

Trump Fires ‘Apprentice’ Star Carolyn

Posted by andPOP Staff on August 31st, 2006

Carolyn Kepcher, a long-time employee at the Trump Organization and one of Donald’s sidekicks on “The Apprentice,” has been fired by the company.

“Mr. Trump wishes her the best,” said the business icon’s spokesman, Jim Dowd. She had held the position of chief operating officer for two Trump golf courses.

The firing was first reported by the New York Post on Thursday. Sources close to the situation said that Kepcher had been focusing too much on self-promotion and her own pursuits.

The firing doesn’t affect the upcoming season of “The Apprentice,” however, as Kepcher wasn’t part of the cast.

The show, which is based in Los Angeles for the first time, will more prominently feature Trump’s children, Ivanka and Donald Jr., as his co-hosts. It hits airwaves in January.

On The Road Again With Donald Trump?

Posted by andPOP Staff on June 20th, 2006

Donald Trump is taking his show on the road.

According to E! Online, Trump is planning to scout locations for the seventh season of “The Apprentice” ? despite the fact that the sixth season hasn’t even aired yet.

For the past five seasons of the show, it has been filmed in New York. Due to a business development in L.A., the Donald decided to move the location of the sixth season to accommodate both ventures.

However, the series has been slumping in the ratings for the past few seasons, so it seems like the Donald is making a decision a little too far in advance. Despite this, the Donald told Variety magazine that the show has been picked up for a seventh season, and blames NBC for airing too many seasons in one TV cycle (much like “Survivor,” “The Apprentice” typically airs two seasons in one normal television season ? one in September and one in January).

Possible locations for the seventh season include San Francisco and Las Vegas. Trump says the decision will be made in the next two months.
