Filed under: Celebrities

According to various media reports, Britney Spears has fired longtime publicist Leslie Sloane-Zelnick and taken charge of her own publicity.

And it’s no wonder, considering how well that worked out for Tom Cruise — and how well Britney handled her gum- and cleavage-popping Dateline interview. Smart move, Brit-Brit!

In less cringe-worthy Brit news, Spears did manage to negotiate a lucrative deal for the exclusive rights to the first photos of Sutton. Although OK! magazine reportedly bid close to $2 million for the first photos, Spears turned down the deal and decided to go with People. People …

Sienna Miller puts effort into her appearance for the first time in months — which clearly inspired Jude to get a little frisky. In front of The Metropolitan Opera, no less. What a naughty li’l monkey. Love those Brits!

The Premiere of Holy Candy

Filed under: General Musings

Oh, how I tried to be clever in naming this blog. I’m a blonde chick named Candy. In Los Angeles, no less. The opportunities for puns, metaphors, similes and whatnot ought to be endless, right? Not so much. Turns out, most every “Candy”-related URL has been scooped up. And most every one of them is porn. Nasty, nasty porn. That you should totally check out after reading this blog, by the way. Especially PieceofCandy.com. Hell-o!

So how did I ultimately end up with a crazy-ass name like Holy Candy? Honestly, …
