The split of Maria Shriver from husband Arnold Schwarzenegger is dominating the entertainment headlines right now. Many folks are now saying after-the-fact that they aren’t surprised but in light of multiple groping allegations against the Gubernator and 25 years of Maria sticking it out I think that’s a little overstated.

Bonus: Simon Cowell in a Members Only jacket – top that!

If someone told me that I was going out into the bayou tomorrow to hunt alligators with one of the guys from Swamp People and I had 30 seconds to choose which one, I’d have 29.5 seconds left over. I’d choose Troy Landry as fast as my mouth could form the his name. No doubt.
I wanted to take a moment on this Mother’s Day to recognize the four young ladies of MTV’s Teen Mom. We started this site a little over three years ago and have been covering the 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom shows from their inception. Since that time we have built up quite a large following of fans of the show, and also since that time we ourselves have become big fans! So, I thought I might take a break from arrests, rumored break-ups, spring break partying, Facebook feuds and shark fishing to spread a little love and a lot of admiration for Maci Bookout, Catelynn Lowell, Farrah Abraham and Amber Portwood.

YES! This is a Starcasm internal Friday victory crush-theft joyous moment for yours truly.

Working against Ben? He has a pretty old Facebook group dedicated to him that is a little less than flattering!
Ames Brown is without a doubt the most academically credentialed Bachelorette contestant ever! With three Ivy League degrees and a doctorate on the way from Harvard, Ames certainly has the brains to win over Ashley Hebert’s heart. Oh, and he’s also an ultramarathon runner (that’s 62 miles y’all!) so he also has the stamina to hang in there to the end. Could that be enough to take home the final rose?
