An Australian radio show did a blind date thing with HILARY DUFF where they put her on a conference call with eight guys. She couldn’t tell them who she was, and they were told to hang up when they heard something they didn’t like. The first guy left when she was asked what she looks for in a man and she said, quote, “Someone that can make me laugh, has a good personality. I like funny banter.” Two guys dropped off when she admitted she’s a single mom. Another two jumped ship when she said, quote, “If they didn’t have a career yet, I’d be okay with it, but I’d hope they were working toward something. The other two peeled off sometime after she talked about being an animal lover and letting her dogs sleep in bed with her. As for the guy who stuck it out, Hillary said she might be willing to meet him.
The “Entourage” movie is in theaters this week, and includes a TON of celebrity cameos. It’s up against Melissa McCarthy’s “Spy” comedy, a third “Insidious” flick, and a movie about Beach Boys founder Brian Wilson called “Love & Mercy”, starring John Cusack and Paul Dano as Brian in two different decades of his life.
Not everything JIM BOB and MICHELLE DUGGAR said in their interview with MEGYN KELLY on Fox News might have been truthful. Here are some of the discrepancies:
The Duggars fully cooperated with the police investigation in 2006. They cooperated until police asked to interview Josh. Then cops got a voicemail from Jim Bob saying Josh had hired a lawyer and wouldn’t be coming in.
As parents, the Duggars were “not mandatory reporters”. Jim Bob and Michelle could have actually faced FELONY charges of child endangerment for not reporting multiple instances of abuse. The statute of limitations has since run out.
Josh Duggar’s records were “illegally released”. This one is still up for debate. But “In Touch Weekly” obtained them through Arkansas’ Freedom of Information Act . . .
If CAITLYN JENNER were to get prison time for her fatal car accident last year, one law enforcement source says she’d be sent to a women’s prison. But another source says she could end up at the men’s prison in downtown L.A., but in a special block reserved for gay and transgender inmates.
“People” chose DIERKS BENTLEY as country music’s Hottest Guy. BRETT ELDREDGE and TIM MCGRAW also made the cut. Details are in the issue that hits newsstands today. It also includes an interview with Dierks. Asked if he’s a member of the mile-high club, he said, quote, “Yes.” As for what he wears in bed, he answered, “Honestly, I sleep best wearing nothing. But with kids, I’ve learned to sleep with underwear very close by. He added that his dad started wearing an “old-school grandpa nightgown” when he rolled into his 70s . . . so he’ll probably do the same. Also, his idea of a perfect date is totally related to him being happily married. Quote, “A Sunday morning reading the paper together, maybe drinking mimosas, alone and talking until noon. Married couples with kids will understand.”
VINCE GILL can’t understand why female artists aren’t getting played more on country radio. He says, quote, “It’s one of the greatest tragedies in this stretch of life for me. Women are making much more interesting records. They’re saying more things I’d prefer to hear, lyrically and song-wise.”
George Clooney took his wife Amal back to his hometown of Augusta, Ky., for an annual family reunion earlier this week. The newlyweds stopped by several of the actor’s favorite spots, including Magee’s Bakery. The 54-year-old was even spotted playing basketball in the Augusta High School gym with a bunch of students.
DARIUS RUCKER brought out his openers, Brett Eldredge, the Brothers Osborne, and A Thousand Horses, and had them join him on the Hootie & The Blowfish classic “Hold My Hand”.
