Why Did Oprah End Her Show?

2009-11-21T08:19:00.002-05:00

Oprah Winfrey fans were sad to hear Oprah announcing that 2011 will be the end for the Oprah Winfrey show after 25 long years on the air. But why is billionaire Oprah Winfrey choosing to end the show when she has enough fans to continue on for another 25 years.

Oprah gave her audience the reason in November 20th "show announcement" where she tearfully explained her decision to end the show. You can check out the announcement video clip here on EverythingOprah.com.

Elizabeth Lambert Hair Pull Video Featured On CNN News Today

2009-11-19T12:25:00.002-05:00

It can't get much worse for "Elizabeth Lambert," the soccer player who has become known for the soccer game "hair pulling" incident.

The short "on field" fight has become an Internet sensation and Elizabeth Lambert has been labeled as the "mean soccer girl" and some have gone as far as to call her a monster.

I know one thing for certain, if Elizabeth Lambert was a man, no one would care, and the following "hair pulling video" wouldn't be featured on CNN.com today.

Miley Cyrus Dead - Fact or Fiction?

2009-11-15T19:25:00.002-05:00

The most recent "Miley Cyrus is dead" rumors are 100% fiction. This is about the fourth or fifth time that some website has begun a rumor, printing that Miley Cyrus has died in a car crash. How twisted is that?

So why would a website print such garbage? Either they received a false tip that was not true, or they intentionally published false information to gain readers because it's a slow news day.

Miley Cyrus isn't the only celebrity that's been reported as dead, dozen of false celebrity death reports spread via the Internet each month. Unfortunately once in a while a false death report will make its way to a legitimate news site or Wikipedia.

Remember to always check CNN.com when you hear a strange celebrity rumor. They are very accurate with their news reports and report breaking news quickly.

Amy Fisher Sex Site Trashier Than You Can Even Imagine

2009-11-15T12:19:00.007-05:00

I could have sworn I heard Amy Fisher on various talk shows saying how she had changed and is supposedly this wonderful mother and wife now.

I must be mistaken because Amy Fisher is not on the road to a better life, but instead taking up a career as an online "porn star" and "stripper." Having children isn't stopping Amy Fisher from baring it all, and she seems really proud of who she is.

As Amy Fisher comes out with her brand new x-rated website, Mary Jo Buttafuoco has moved on with her life. Here life has not been an easy one, but at least she's finally free of her ex husband Joey Buttafuoco and she can always visit Amy Fisher's website for a good laugh.

Cindy Crawford Extortion Plot Involved Her Daughter

2009-11-13T09:49:00.002-05:00

I just heard the news this morning of an alleged extortion plot involving a strange photo of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber's daughter. Apparently the nanny of Cindy Crawford's daughter had taken a picture of the girl "bound and gagged" and wearing revealing clothing, as part of a "cops and robbers" game.

A friend of the nanny was planning to use the picture as a way to get Cindy Crawford to pay her a large amount of money. The Crawford and Gerber are not going along with the plan and have exposed the extortion plot.

Crawford and Gerber had no idea that the Nanny had taken the "cops and robbers" picture of their daughter. Every parent should have a "Nanny Cam"installed to see what's going on when their not at home.

You can read more on the "Cindy Crawford extortion plot" story on People.com.

Google Search Suggestion - Why Won't My Parakeet...

2009-11-11T12:56:00.002-05:00

Google has accidentally started a seriously gross "Google Trend" making the unfortunate question "Why won't my parakeet eat my diarrhea" one of today's top Internet jokes.

You know how Google makes search phrase suggestions when you're typing in a search on Google. Well just type in the words...why won't...and the first suggestions Google makes is "Why won't my parakeet eat my diarrhea?" Since I'm sure that's NOT a Google common search perhaps someone who works at Google has a sense of humor.

Here are some other suggestions that Google makes when you type in ....Why won't?:

Why won't God heal amputees?

Why won't my Hydrangea bloom?

Why won't he marry me?

Why won't my car start?

If you're wondering who the first person to notice Google's weird parakeet suggestion it was the "Fail Blog," a really funny website that notices everything!

2009-11-07T09:16:00.004-05:00

Photo Origin: CBSAtlanta.com

Thanks to Google Scott Becker has finally found his daughter April Becker Antoniou after years of searching for her.

Scott Becker has desperately tried to find his daughter over the past 30 years, and even hired private investigators to search for her. April's mother had taken her when she was only a few months old and her whereabouts were a complete mystery.

Ten years ago Scott Becker created a simple website "AprilBecker.com" in the hopes that his daughter would search the Internet for her name and find it. The website contains Scott Becker's contact information and a short message letting April know that he was searching for her.

After April Becker Antoniou searched Google for "Scott Becker Looking For April" she found the website that her father had created for her and the two were soon reunited.
