Bully Forced to Wear Heinous Clothes By Mom as Punishment: Right or Wrong?

A Utah woman is courting controversy by reprimanding 10-year-old for bullying – by giving her a taste of her own medicine, public humiliation style.

Ally Olsen, 41, discovered that her fiance’s 10-year-old daughter, Kaylee, had been bullying a classmate because of the way she dressed.

As a result, the victim no longer wanted to come to school. When Ally heard this, she was upset at Kaylee, and responded in unorthodox fashion.

“I confronted Kaylee who explained that she had called another girl ‘sleazy’ for wearing Daisy Duke shorts and a tank top,” Olsen told Yahoo!

She is preparing to write book about adoption; to pursue a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy; to become a mom to at least four kids.

Not bad for a young woman who was tragically left in a dumpster, sealed in a dark garbage bag, on the day she was born in September 1989.

“Some days, it’s like it never happened,” Rachael told NBC’s Today. “But some days, I really do struggle. I have such strong abandonment

Dina Lohan on Dr. Phil: What a Train Wreck!

She can try to blame it on editing all she wants, but Dina Lohan’s interview on Dr. Phil certainly lived up to its insane billing. Woman is either drunk or off her rocker.

We recap the highlights of Dina Lohan on Dr. Phil below …

  • Asking “Are we rolling?” numerous times. No, you’re not rolling. Moron.
  • Trying, and failing, to fist-bump the TV doc. So awkward and hilarious.
  • Smirking and saying “the truth will prevail” without elaborating at all.
  • Responding by sticking up both middle fingers and flipping off the host and his entire crew after Phil deigned to call Lindsay’s mom a

Mitt Romney on Obama Voters: Entitled Losers!

A secretly recorded video has emerged in which Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney can be heard apparently disparaging voters – specifically those who support President Barack Obama – at a private dinner with donors.

The GOP nominee can be heard (and seen, albeit far away) positing that “47 percent” of Americans do not pay any income taxes, consider themselves victims, feel entitled to handouts and would never even think about voting for him anyway.

“I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives,” Romney says of Obama’s “huge

Shaun White Arrested for Vandalism and Public Intoxication

Shaun White might dominate in the air of winter, but the snow boarder extraordinaire got himself in some trouble early Sunday morning on the grounds of a Nashville hotel.

Here’s what allegedly went down:

The Nashville Metro Police Department says cops were called to the Loews Vanderbilt Hotel around 2 a.m. because a clearly drunk White evacuated the facility by pulling the fire alarm. He also reportedly smashed a phone.

When another guest tried to stop The X Games champion from fleeing the scene via taxi, White kicked that individual and sprinted away on foot. Or tried to, at least.

Amanda Bynes: Don’t Call Me Lindsay Lohan!

When train wrecks attack: Amanda Bynes is NOT happy that Lindsay Lohan is trash talking her, texting a friend today saying, “I HATE being compared to her.”

Amanda has a point, in that she’s never been arrested for drugs, chasing people, stealing from a jewelery store or violating the terms of her probation … a lot.

The same cannot be said of SOME people we know.

Lohan had the audacity to Tweet about Bynes and wonder aloud why she’s been to jail and Amanda hasn’t. Bynes says they’re not friends and LL needs to shut it.

Lindsay, BTW, has been convicted of crimes (plural) and been to jail as

Usher and Shakira are replacing Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green.

Alleged insiders say Shakira and Usher would take the place of Christina and Cee Lo alongside Adam Levine and Blake Shelton at the end of the current season.

Snooki & JWoww Find New Digs, Neighbors Fear Apocalypse

After being denied by several New Jersey towns, Snooki & JWoww have found a new place to live, and the residents of their new town aren’t pleased.

495 Productions, the producers of Jersey Shore as well as Snooki & JWoww, had trouble finding a location to film Season 2 of the duo’s reality show.

Britney Spears is apparently is on top of current events.

The singer, or whatever intern she has running her Twitter, was tweeting at NASA’s Mars Curiosity rover earlier this week, and it was pretty funny!

The best part? Mars Curiosity responded!

President Obama Speaks on Colorado Movie Theater Tragedy: "Life is Very Fragile"

Such violence, such evil is senseless. It’s beyond reason. But while we will never know fully what causes somebody to take the life of another, we do know what makes life worth living.

The people we lost in Aurora loved and they were loved. They were mothers and fathers; they were husbands and wives; sisters and brothers; sons and daughters, friends and neighbors. They had hopes for the future and they had dreams that were not yet fulfilled.

So stated Barack Obama today in an address from Fort Myers, Florida, as he addressed the tragic Colorado shooting that took the lives of 12 people

At least in modern celebrity gossip times. That much is unquestioned.
