Worst Governor Ever: Sarah Palin Tries, Fails to Win Over Constituent
Aug 10th
If you thought Levi Johnston’s run for mayor would be the funniest story regarding Alaska politics all day on THG, we wouldn’t blame you. But think again!
A woman from Homer, Alaska recently made a 30-foot sign to welcome her state’s former chief executive, Sarah Palin, to her hometown. Its simple message:
WORST GOVERNOR EVER.
Why Sarah didn’t just ignore this, we have no idea. But she decided to confront the woman, who accused the ex-governor of being a money-hungry sellout.
“You swore on your precious Bible that you would uphold the interests of this state,” she said. “Then, when cash was waved in front of your face, you quit.”
Yup, pretty much.
Either baffled and serious or sarcastic and bitter (it’s hard to tell), Palin responded: “Oh, you wanted me to be your governor! I’m honored. Thank you.”
After the woman rips her for choosing celebrity status over her job, Sarah says to daughter Bristol Palin, “I’m honored that she thinks I’m a celebrity!”
Fist-pumping and runnin’ in place, Sarah claims she’s working to “elect candidates who understand the constitution, to protect our military interests so that we can keep on fightin’ for the constitution, those protections, those freedoms.”
That and getting rich, of course. Amazingly, Palin posted this on Facebook and lambasted the LSM (lame-stream media) for reporting the encounter.
“They claim I – wait for it – ‘appear to roll my eyes’ when the lady tells me she’s a teacher,” she writes. “Maybe that’s why Botox is all the rage – if you can’t move your eyebrows, your ‘eye rolling’ can’t be misinterpreted.”
Well said, Sarah. You’ve completely proved this voter wrong.

Zacquisha Fails To Deliver
Aug 1st
Sorry, Zefron. Your movie is limp upon whipping it out!
Charlie St. Cloud came in at the #6 spot at the U.S. box office with a weak $12.1 million.
Inception stayed in the #1 spot in its third week, bringing in an additional $27.5 million. The Leo DiCaprio film has made a total of $193.3 million so far.
Dinner for Schmucks came in #2 with not-so-impressive $23.3 million .
Sources say that Charlie‘s audience fell 32% after Friday, which could possible mean that the film attracted mostly Zac and High School Musical fans who were waiting to see the film on opening day.
Doesn’t look like Zac is quite the A-list Hollywood star just yet…

Devon James Fails Physical, Pulls Out of Celebrity Boxing Fight
Jul 30th
Rough month for Devon James.
Not only was Tiger Woods’ mistress basically shot down in her bid to prove the golf star fathered her son Austin T. James (T for Tiger), she had to withdraw from a Celebrity Boxing match last night because she failed the pre-fight physical.
History was still made at the event, however, as it marked the first time the words “pulling out” and “Devon James” were ever used in the same sentence.
James was scheduled to get in the ring with Susan Finkelstein, a woman who posted a Craigslist ad offering sex for Philadelphia Phillies tickets. Classy.
The only ring Devon James is known for is … forget it.
They really brought out the big guns for this clash of titans. Screech, a.k.a. Saved By The Bell and sex tape star Dustin Diamond, was supposed to ref.
But just before the opening bell, New Jersey EMT’s determined that Devon’s blood pressure was too high and expressed concern over her poor performance in the eyeball reaction test. No word if she also failed any polygraphs.
The decision was made at that time to remove her from the fight, leaving the Celebrity Boxing federation to swap in some other random non-celebrity.

Old Man Spencer Pratt Tries, Fails to Crash The Hills Finale Party
Jul 14th
Last night, fans said goodbye to The Hills as the very last episode of the hit MTV reality show aired. We’ll have our full recap of it for you in a little bit.
The sideshow taking place was an entirely different matter. To mark the end of an error era, the cast gathered for a live show broadcast in Hollywood.
Spencer Pratt? Not invited.
Unsurprisingly, the fame-hungry outcast turned up anyway outside the Hotel Roosevelt, disguised in a gray wig and beard, wrinkles and a large gut.
Pretty funny, but also sad that he’s resorted to such gimmicks. Desperate for attention much? It’s like a pathetic, last gasp at any kind of relevance.
OLD AND GRAY: The Hills certainly felt that way by the end. Perhaps this is Spencer Pratt’s point? Nah, he just wants attention. [Photo: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com]
It wasn’t long ago that Spencer caused the commotion. Now he clamors for attention across the street while the real action takes place inside.
How the mighty have fallen. We’re also pretty sure that’s his sidekick Emilio Masella, a.k.a. Snooki’s ex-boyfriend, behind him and to his right.

Drunk Guy at Concert Fails to Secure Flip Flop
Jun 17th
This has been circulating for a few weeks, but THG only just found it thanks to the social networking marvel that is Twitter, and just had to share with you.
The gist: An individual was so plastered in broad daylight at this spring’s Coachella Festival that they could not locate their flip flops right in front of them.
Amazingly, it’s not Lindsay Lohan!
This poor guy, apparently on his way to a portable bathroom of some kind, may have wanted to find an IV instead. Check it out if you need a good laugh:
Thanks go out to Twitter, and specifically pro tennis star Andy Roddick, for sharing this with us. Follow these link to follow THG on Twitter and Facebook!

Jennifer Love Hewitt Aims to Inspire, Fails
Jun 16th
In December 2007, Jennifer Love Hewitt lashed out at critics that mocked her bathing suit-clad body. She admirably said at the time:
“To set the record straight, I’m not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image. A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn’t make you beautiful.”
True, inspirational words.
Now, in the latest issue of People, the actress says she wants to urge young women to not focus on their weight, saying:
“When I meet young girls, I’m always like, ‘Just do me one favor.’ Love what you look like right now – and remember I said it 10 years from now because it’s the greatest gift I can give.”
That sounds nice and all, but Hewitt then refers to her own figure as “a work in progress” and adds: “In another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today…
“I’d want to have Gisele Bundchen’s body. Even though she’s tall and skinny, she does have curves… and I think that’s hot. Halle Berry also is kind of amazing.”
Isn’t JLH sending a mixed message here? Should girls be happy with their bodies, or should they aspire to be like Gisele and Berry, easily two of the best looking women in the world?
Call us, Jennifer. Perhaps we can have dinner together and then discuss this issue over breakfast… if you know what we mean!
