Welcome to We Weekly Chat!
First of all, there are some changes.
Change One: I am calling it We Weekly Chat instead of Us Weekly Chat, so that no one will be confused that this chat is in any way endorsed by Us Weekly. Or the United States of America.
Change Two: There’s a We Weekly Chat button! Isn’t it pretty? If you’d like one, email me and I’ll ship one out to you.
Enough with the changes! Let’s get to work.
This week, we learned many important things in US Weekly.
* Sienna Miller and Jude Law broke up. Again. Can’t wait for the reconciliation!
* Julianne Moore has been cast as Sarah Palin in an HBO movie. First of all, no one but Tina Fey should ever portray Sarah Palin. Second of all, please don’t make any movies about Sarah Palin.
* The Franklin Mint jas issued a Kate Middleton doll. Only $195. Hurry! Hey, maybe the Kate Middleton doll can be cast as Sarah Palin.
* When Blake Lively has a bad day, she eats lots of chocolate ice cream and dances to the Lion King soundtrack. From looking at her, I estimate that Blake had 1.4 bad days in the past decade.
* I am officially sick of Kate Hudson’s pregnancy pics.
* Sandra Bullock calls her 14 month old son “little Cajun cookie.”
* Jennifer Aniston has an “eponymous scent”. Insert your own joke here.
* It’s official. I can’t tell Emma Roberts and Ivanka Trump apart.
* Stars-They’re Just Like Us! They Roll Their Luggage at the airport! (Cameron Diaz!) They Text on the Go! (Kelly Osbourne and her cheeks!) They Look for Change to Feed the Meter! (Rachel Bilson) They. Drink. Beer! (Nick Lachey)
* It’s another week, so there’s a new Ryan Phillippe sex drama. Now someone is claiming that she’s pregnant and that Ryan is the father. I don’t see how that’s possible, since he was linked to a totally different someone.
* Madonna’s grandmother died.
* OMG, did Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart get married?!
* You must get the magazine this week if only to check out the photo of Jaime Pressly on page 54.
* So, the cover story. Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake broke up because he’s a big cheaterpants. Fortunately, their reps issued a statement that “the two remain friends and continue to hold the highest level of love and respect for each other.” Seriously, can’t these reps issue statements that pass the laughing hysterically test?
That’s all I got.
What caught your eye?

Just once I’d like to hear a rep issue a statement like “She kicked his ass to the curb because he couldn’t keep it in his pants, and she totally hopes he comes down with some sort of horrible rash that is both embarrassing and difficult to treat.” That would be totally awesomesauce.
Jude and Sienna should really consider holding off on their press releases. It’s not like anyone actually thinks they’re going to break up or stay together for any period of time. It’s like saying “Kristin has given up cake.” Um, yeah.
Still shocked by the headline,”Bachelor Wedding Postponed!” Those things typically end so well…. Thank goodness that amidst all the breakups and heartaches we have Reese’s “Big Day” to pin all our romantic hopes on.
BTW, isn’t “eponymous” a rather large word for the demographic? I mean who does “US” think they are, “The New Yorker”?

Isn’t “eponymous” a rather large word for the demographic of …well ME? Since I had to look it up and everything.
Email me the button code please. (I obviously can’t follow directions since you said to email a request for it…)
I love this column, but I admit, it does make me want to buy this magazine just to see the pictures. AND, I can not believe Sienna took Judd Law back again! What is she? An idiot?! AND, I didn’t know Kate Hudson was pregnant! Is she married? (And finally, did you hear?! I’m pregnant again too!)

Have to admit – I haven’t made it all the way through this issue yet. But I was rather shocked then not shocked at all by Brittany’s revelation she no one explained sex to her until she was TWELVE. And I was relieved then disturbed to hear that she got the scoop from her mother.

Did Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart really get married? Because this is the first I’ve heard any rumblings about it.

I agree. And no offense to Kate Hudson but really, how many pregnancy pics of her can one take? I don’t even get the tabloids that often but it seems like whenever I do, there she is with her baby bump. She can’t possibly be the only pregnant celebrity.

First of all, I LOVE your button.
I will email you for the code.
And I want to go get the latest issue so I can contribute to this discussion.
I think it’s only right that I know what I”m talking about.
I think that Jennifer Anniston perhaps maybe could be possibly is adopting a baby.
Like her pal, Sheryl Crowe.
But I have to get the magazine to be sure.
I love it, my kind of post for my kind of thinking and a new word a week here.
It’s got everything.

Nick Lachey is a star?
Also, I’m going to start calling people Little Cajun Cookies. I think they’ll love it.
Fabulous button.

My favorite thing to do is SCREAM to my husband “OH MY GOD YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS RIGHT NOW YOU WON’T BELIEVE IT!!!!” he’ll come running over, thinking it is something serious on the news, and I’ll hold out my glossy mag to point out “this married couple was holding hands AND eating a salad for lunch! HOLY CRAP!!!”.
Groundbreaking news. That’s what makes my world go ’round.

Maybe Sarah Palin IS the Kate Middleton doll…..

Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin? That just made my head explode.
Is the Jaime Pressley pic the one where she is squatting drunk on the sidewalk and has peed her pants? I can’t un-see that photo…ever.
Kate Hudson’s pregnant? I didn’t even know she was seeing someone. And I thought we were so close.
I’m going to have to start buying US Weekly again, because your posts are too much fun!

Is it just me or is Rachel Bilson always looking for change to feed the parking meter?
You just watch. “Little Cajun” will debut next year as the newest Girl Scout cookie flavor.
Love the new name of the column. At least you didn’t go with Wee Weekly.

Blake’s ratio of spoonfuls of ice cream to minutes dancing to Lion King is 2 to 5,000.
First trimester pics of Kate are boring, but third trimester pics are sort of priceless. I don’t like to pick on pregnant ladies, but it does do the rest of us good to see how huge she got.
