Pirates of the Caribbean

People thought that this franchise was getting old but that didn't keep the movie from making big bucks internationally. The fourth movie On Stranger Tides smashed box office records this weekend becoming the biggest international opening of all time. Grossing $256.3 million, the movie grossed as much as three times America's $90.1 million. The movie knocked Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which earned $236 million, off the number one spot. I wonder if this means there will be a fifth movie.

No Prenup for Royal Couple

Prince William and Duchess Catherine Middleton did not sign a prenup for their marriage. This adds to the romance that they and hopeful will last forever. A source said: "For him to refuse, it would have had to have been suggested to him by someone and it was not. There is no prenuptial agreement in place for this wedding." I really hope this marriage lasts because they look so sweet together and it doesn't look like the Royals have a good track record either. Now as for Prince Harry.... I am totally single and up for it. Duchess Anna Ho has a nice ring to it.

Man Eats Liver

Maybe this guy was looking for a new diet to get inches off the waist line or he's just a carnivore. Either way this is disturbing. Police in Moscow, Russia arrested a man caught "eating an acquaintance's liver." Proceed to read at your own stomach. The man was eating the liver with potatoes when he was caught and the other half of the liver was in the refrigerator.

He's Getting Paperrr...

There are people in this world that are greedy and just plain evil and greedy. Leroy Fick, a man of Auburn,Michigan, recently won $2 million from the lottery. All that money would be enough for groceries for more than one family but not enough money to get off of food stamps for Fick. The sad part is that this is completely legal for Fick to do. Food stamp eligibility is based on gross income not liquid assets. Sen. Jones is furious and is working on changing the policy.

Bad mom. Bad mom. Whatcha Gonna Do When We Come For You?

The mother, Kerry Campbell, who made headlines after admitting to giving her eight year old daughter, Britney, Botox is being investigated by San Francisco authorities. Campbell decided to give Botox when her daughter came to her and said she had wrinkles when she smiled. Officials from the city's Human Services will be interviewing Campbell and her daughter. San Francisco Human Services Agency spokesperson, Trent Rohrer told the San Francisco Chronicle: "It’s pretty unusual for a mom to be injecting an eight-year-old with Botox, and certainly is grounds for an investigation." This may not be called abuse but it's some kind of torture.

8 is new... 40

This is a whole new level for pageant moms all over the nation. A mother in San Francisco gave her 8 year old daughter Botox injections because the daughter told her mother she had wrinkles. The mother, Kerry Campbell, said she decided to give her daughter, Britney, Botox when she said she had wrinkles when she smiles. Ever heard of dimples? Campbell also waxes her daughter's upper legs just in case she hits puberty and any "fluffy" hair start to appear. This is an embarrassment and a whole new level for pageant mothers.

Brazil Just Got Hotter

Brazil's High Court has ruled to legalize same sex civil unions which will give legal rights to gay couples such as alimony and retirement benefits. Brazil is a country with mostly Roman Catholics. The Catholic church fought the measure to prevent a complete legalization for gay marriage.This is a historic moment for all Brazilians not just homosexuals. Hopefully this change will be a good one for other countries struggling on this debate.
