Nightstand

Fred Thompson is heading back to Hollywood! Thompson signed with talent agency William Morris .

Justin Timberlake is hosting the 2008 ESPY awards. When we think of sports we think of Justin Timberlake right?

Random House announced that they will be reissuing some of the original books in the teen series Sweet Valley High. Sweet Valley High was about two blonde teenage girls Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield and their adventures during high school. In the original books they are describe as blonde-haired,blue-eyed and perfect size 6's. In Random House's press release they decided to do some editorial tweaking and the girls are now size 4's. As a fan of these books when I was younger I don't think anything should have been changed. The media already has done enough to damage young girls' self esteem and to "shrink" the waist size of fictional characters is just absurd. Thanks Random House for instilling a positive body image in young readers !

Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora was busted for a DUI yesterday. What's so newsworthy about it ? his daughter and another minor were in the car with him at the time. Now that's responsible parenting.

Kenny Chesney celebrated his 40th birthday last night at Nashville hotspot Cabana. Some of his famous friends celebrating with him were Tim McGraw and Faith Hill , Kellie Pickler ( ????) and questionable of all , Roger Clemens. To make a point that he is just as normal as the rest of us his birthday cakes came from Publix. To be perfectly honest , I think I would be afraid to be in a room with Roger Clemens, that man has a temper!
