A festival of Anti-Americanism
FrontPageMagazine.com has called the Cannes Film Festival, in which Samira Makhmalbaf won the Jury Award for her film Five in the Afternoon, a “festival of Anti-Americanism.” Irked by Makhmalbaf’s anti-Bush statements during her acceptance speech, in which she said "I don't want to be president in a world where the most famous president in the world is George W. Bush!", the magazine dismissed her movies and the Cannes festival altogether by commenting that “It is easy to see why American audiences are unwilling either to take moral instruction from these self-described "artists," or to sit through their dismal movies.”

Deck of Weasels
In a spoof on the Pentagon’s Iraqi Most Wanted “Deck of Death”, where playing cards depicted the Iraqis targeted by US forces, the website NewsMax.com has now come up with a Deck of Weasels, depicting the 54 worst leaders and celebrities who opposed America and were key members of "The United Nations of Weasels." The celebrities targeted include French President Jacques Chirac, Mr. ‘Shame on you Mr. Bush” himself Michael Moore (surprise surprise), Susan Sarandon and George Clooney. They are each made to look like they are wearing a Saddam beret and under each photo is a anti-war or anti-Bush quote attributed to them.

Punk’d by Demi
Rumors that forty year old Demi Moore and twenty five year old Ashton Kutcher, of the MTV Show Punk’d, were seen smooching together leaves Gossiping Golnaz at a loss for words, for once. Is this for real or are we just being punk’d like the countless people that Kutcher pulled pranks on in his Candid Camera style TV show? Only time will tell. Certainly won’t help Demi’s image as a sexual vixen, what with the lawsuit filed against her by a former male employee for sexual harassment. Demi, have you been watching Disclosure again???

Hilary Clinton’s new book
Media outlets poured over the contents of Hilary Clinton’s new autobiography in which she claims she was screaming mad at Bill Clinton over his affair with Monica Lewisnky and made him sleep on the couch. Is anyone shocked here? Anyone? Speaking of Hilary, there’s talk that none other than Sharon Stone will play the former first lady in a movie based on her life. I see a tiny little problem with that: Who would believe Bill would cheat on Sharon with Monica???

Dissed by Peta
When stars fall out of the constellation, the old saying is they can’t even get arrested. For Diana Ross, whose battle with the bottle has been headline fodder for the last year, the new snub is she won’t even be protested. Although she made two appearances on the catwalk at furrier Dennis Basso's 20th anniversary collection in New York, PETA rep Dan Matthews told the New York Daily News that he didn't think his organization would bother showing up to protest. "When we heard that Diana Ross was involved we opted not to protest” He quipped, “as she probably won't even be able to walk a straight line down the runway.” Aouuuchhh!!!!
