Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

“I’m quite emotional about it, of course. She could have stayed absolutely private about it and I don’t think anyone would have been none the wiser with such good results. But it was really important to her to share the story and that others would understand it doesn’t have to be a scary thing. In fact, it can be an empowering thing, and something that makes you stronger and us stronger. … [It has been] an emotional and beautifully inspiring few months. And I’ll tell you, it’s such a wonderful relief to come through this and not have a spectre hanging over our heads. To know that that’s not going to be something that’s going to affect us. My most proudest thing is our family. This isn’t going to get that.”"

If I’m not paying attention for the remainder of the day, nor a good portion of tomorrow, it’s because I’m still sidetracked by the new Nicholas Hoult spread in Flaunt magazine. I mean, is there anything in the world more distracting than the beautiful Hoult all kitted out in a bizarrely patterned trench coat and some other odd wares? Supposedly, according to Nicholas, there are some dropped-trou shots included in the actual magazine… Say, where does one go about purchasing Flaunt? [Celebitchy]

  • James Deen is not amused that his sex tape co-star “Teen Mom”‘s Farrah Abraham was photographed by paparazzi shopping for a pregnancy test. “To say you’re potentially pregnant is not something to joke about. When you knowingly involve another human being and a publicity stunt around that, a child is not something to be taken lightly,” he told Celebuzz.  Hear, hear! “I am taking it seriously enough to research the possibility of someone getting pregnant from anal sex and semen on their face while they are having sex on their period with a sponge inside them.” Okay, that’s more than we needed to know, James … [Celebuzz]

Public Response To Angelina Jolie’s Mastectomy Proves We Still See Women As Body Parts

In a moving op-ed in today’s New York Times, Angelina Jolie revealed her choice to have a preventative double mastectomy. The media coverage has been immediate—as has the troubling, sexist public conversation (#RIP Angelina’s boobs!) about Jolie’s decision.

Jolie’s mother died of cancer at age 56. Jolie herself, after discovering she carries the BRCA1 gene, which increases the risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer (In Jolie’s case, 87% chance of developing breast cancer and a 50% risk of ovarian cancer), decided to undergo a preventative double mastectomy. She underwent the procedure beginning in February and announced her decision in an op-ed today.

People on Twitter had a lot to say about Angelina Jolie’s decision to remove her breasts in order to lessen her risk of breast cancer and prolong her life. Read more on The Gloss…

Prince Hot Ginge Hits Up The Jersey Shore

Gym, tan and laundry was not on the agenda — but Prince Harry did hit up the Mantoloking, New Jersey boardwalk on his United States tour to view damage by Superstorm Sandy and play boardwalk games with Governor Chris Christie and some kiddies.

What a good sport. We all know he would have much preferred some Ron Ron Juice and a night out at Karma with the gorillas.

Phoebe Price

A while ago, I told you about how some celebrities actually call the paparazzi on themselves, in order to stay in the press and garner attention. That’s why every Halloween you’ll see garish pictures of say, Courtney Stodden picking out pumpkins in 8-inch lucite heels or Farrah Abraham taking a solitary, sad, sexy walk on the beach.

And then there’s Phoebe Price. Phoebe Price is a regular punching bag for gossip blogger Michael K. over at D-Listed, and he’s very, very cruelly funny about it, referring to as Chicken Cutlets. She is constantly being photographed by paparazzi and was voted by K and his D-Listed readers as 2007′s Hot Slut of the Year, a dubious honor that we’re not entirely sure Phoebe understands.

angelina jolie double mastectomy

In the wake of Angelina Jolie’s stunning double mastectomy news, we wanted to speak with a genetic counselor to find out a little bit more about how Angelina Jolieand so many other women — came to the decision to have a preventative double mastectomy done. Jolie came to the decision after finding out that she had a mutation in her BRCA1 gene, which greatly increases the likelihood of breast cancer in women. The two complicit genes — BRCA1 and BRCA2 were first discovered by researchers in the early 90s, who identified them as the root cause of a genetic predisposition to hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. According to researchers, hereditary cancer accounts for between 3 and 5 percent of all cases of breast and ovarian cancers, which sounds like a small number, but actually amounts to tens of thousands of cases a year.

To find out more about these genes, the tests that detect them, and the difficult decision Angelina Jolie and so many other women make to prevent breast cancer, we spoke with Gina Nuccio, a genetic counselor at Baptist Memorial Health Care, a hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Keep reading »

Zoe Saldana on Allure

Allure has always been the fluffiest of beauty magazines, as if tailor-made for reading during a pedicure. The June 2013 cover with Zoe Saldana made an extremely odd editorial choice: it listed the actress’ weight on the cover. “Zoe Saldana, 115 Pounds of Grit And Heartache,” the cover line reads. What the fuck, Allure? I suppose they’re insinuating that Saldana is a wispy little thing but she’s also gritty and tough, because apparently you can’t be skinny and tough, or something?

But, really, who cares? It’s not necessary to know how much an actress weighs, especially since the numbers on a scale reveal very little of the person’s actual health. (Take, for instance, Anne Hathaway’s dramatic weight loss for “Les Miserables,” which by all accounts, made her truly miserable and unhealthy.) There’s so much pressure for women, other actresses and models in particular, to look attain a mainstream definition of attractiveness, and how much other women with other bodies weigh is not helpful.

This is a total fail, Allure.
