Church Uses Image from ‘The Walking Dead’ to Promote Their Easter Services

Last updated on: March 27, 2013 at 11:08 am By Lilit Marcus

When you think Easter, you probably think of dyed eggs, bunny rabbits, and … zombies? An unnamed church has used images from the TV show The Walking Dead to publicize its Easter services, along with the tag line “why look for the living among the dead?” As io9’s Meredith Woerner points out, this could totally be fake, since there’s no sign of which church it came from. That said, it’s still pretty funny, and far from the worst appropriation of... Read more

Why Exactly Does Scientologist Isabella Cruise Have Cross Tattoos?

Last updated on: March 25, 2013 at 5:36 pm By Lilit Marcus

I saw this photo of Isabella Cruise, daughter of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, today. Celebrity kids with blue hair and tattoos is nothing unusual. But a Scientologist celebrity kid with cross tattoos? That does feel a little bit weird. I would really like to know the answer to this question. I would really like to know what LRH would have to say about that. Read more

Snooki Baptized Her Son Lorenzo and JWoww Is His Godmother

Last updated on: March 25, 2013 at 10:21 am By Lilit Marcus

Snooki, aka Nicole Polizzi, got her son Lorenzo baptized in the Catholic church over the weekend. She and fiance Jionni LaValle threw a party afterward, and it looks pretty adorable. The most adorable part, though, was that Snooks asked BFF/Jersey Shore costar JWoww to be Lorenzo’s godmother. I don’t know why I love their friendship so much, but I do. I think it’s because it seems much more genuine than other reality TV friendships. Anyway, congrats to the Polizzi/LaValle family! Read more

Perez Hilton Is Turning Over a New (Spiritual) Leaf

Last updated on: March 21, 2013 at 3:03 pm By Lilit Marcus

Blogger Perez Hilton made his name from writing a mega-snarky celebrity blog where he gave out mean nicknames, made fun of peoples’ looks, and even drew penis pictures on celebrity photos. But now he’s embarking on a new life as a single dad and media mogul. The LA Times has a profile of Hilton (real name: Mario Lavandeira Jr.) that refers to his newly spiritual side: His atrium-like entry offers a clue to his evolution. His last home was dominated...

David Waller and his wife Priscilla Waller, younger sister of Anna Duggar, welcomed their first child on Saturday. Paul William Waller weighed 9 pounds, 11 ounces and was 22 inches long. Happy new dad David wrote this post on his blog to explain the meaning of their son’s name: We selected the name Paul months ago based on the incredible hero of faith in the Bible.

This Picture from Mauricio Umansky’s Bar Mitzvah Is My Everything

Mauricio Umansky, real estate agent to the stars and husband of Kyle Richards, is one of my favorite Real Housewives husbands. And this photo, of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star at his bar mitzvah in his native Mexico City, is entertaining beyond words. Can’t you just hear him saying “And today I am a man”?

Drew Barrymore Is Removing Her Tattoos In the Name of Judaism

Last updated on: March 14, 2013 at 7:56 pm By Lilit Marcus

Rumors continue to abound that Drew Barrymore is converting to Judaism for her husband Will Kopelman. Her next step is getting her tattoos removed. Though there isn’t a specific law about not getting tattoos, there is a verse in Leviticus that says “You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves.” Drew reportedly has six tattoos, which is actually way fewer than I thought. They include a bouquet of flowers (Flower is... Read more

Hasidic Jews Are Not Happy About ‘Spider-Man’ Filming During Passover

Last updated on: March 14, 2013 at 12:16 pm By Lilit Marcus

Local leaders in the heavily Hasidic Jewish neighborhood of south Williamsburg, Brooklyn (full disclosure: I lived there until about two months ago) are not happy about The Amazing Spider-Man 2 filming in their ‘hood. But they’re not complaining about the movie or its stars. Their problem is that the shoot, which would involve closing off several neighborhood streets, is scheduled to take place during Passover. “Now is the busiest time of year, when not only are the families home, but...

Dennis Rodman Wants to Meet the New Pope for Some Reason

Last updated on: March 12, 2013 at 9:58 am By Lilit Marcus

Basketball player turned reality TV mainstay Dennis Rodman just came back from a visit to North Korea, where he got all buddy-buddy with Kim Jong Un. He clearly developed a taste for meeting important world figures, because now he’s claiming that “his people in Rome” are trying to hook him up with a meeting with the new Pope, whoever that ends up being. Rodman is reportedly on a flight to Rome this very second, and he should make it in... Read more
