Meet The Jerk-Part 2



In part 1, I didn't mention what Stephens wife's job was. She is a weight loss consultant. Apparently after all his attacks on overweight people, her job is taking a hit as well. She issued an apology on her blog, then deleted it and posted a new one. In it she said that her husband needed to get "professional help". Now if you go the site the whole site is gone-It's very strange. Her apologies can be found here . There at the bottom of that page-they were just too long for me to post both of them on here. I know I didn't really discuss his wife at all but surprisingly she wasn't bad-I have no idea how she is married to him because they seem so different. The only "odd" thing that she did say was basically that she wasn't happy being an American- She was just born here, it wasn't her choice.

Since the show aired so many other things have happened. Internet message-boards went even crazier than usual, posting Fowler's home address, which in turn prompted him to threaten to sue the website where it had appeared. Someone launched a stephen fowler sucks website, which I highly recommend you check out. San Francisco's Craigslist Rants and Raves section has a whole thread dedicated to how much they hate him-you can check it out here.

He was also part of Fulcrum Funds, Pacific Environment and Forest Ethics groups which some of the public found out about and took to writing to these companies about how outraged they were for having him as an employee/board member. Since then Stephens name has been removed from the website. It's unclear whether he has gotten fired, resigned or this is simply a temporary measure until most people have forgotten about this. He had to remove his facebook profile, his linkedin profile and his current business endeavor (terranova, the website). His wife lost out to promote herself and her weight loss business on TV, wasn't that the purpose of going on TV in the first place? She had to explain to all her weight loss clients why her husband makes fun of overweight people on a national TV show. His wife's business activities gets lots of, well, not so positive reviews on many review type websites. Her podcasts on i-tunes are experiencing the same fate. For going on the show they get $50,000..I'm not sure if having you and your wife's career thrown away, your friends and neighbors hating you, lots of people who don't know you also hate you is really worth it. At least to me it isn't. Then again this guy is all about the money so who knows.

Anyway the reason I even mentioned this guy in the first place was because I didn't realize such narrow minded, arrogant people still existed. He made me so angry, I wish I was there and could of given him a piece of my mind and my fist. Since I couldn't be, this is the next best thing-continuing to spread his name out there and what a horrible, awful person he is. Did anyone watch this episode? Or hear about it in the news? Let me know what you guys think of him!!

Meet Stephen Fowler aka The World's Biggest Jerk-Part 1





Normally I don't write too much about reality t.v. shows, but this one I just couldn't resist. On a recent episode of "Wife Swap" we were introduced to a British man, living in the U.S. named Stephen Fowler, his wife Renee and their 2 kids. The family they swapped with Gayla and Alan Long and their 4 sons. I'm going to focus on Stephen Fowler, if you haven't heard about him yet- after reading this, you'll know you wish you never meet anyone like him in your life. He was such an awful, rude, ignorant and downright mean person that the internet has been in a fury over him since.

Stephen and Renee live in California while Gayla and Alan are from a town of 55 in Missouri. Seems like a typical Wife Swap so far, the small town mid-westerns love paintballing, riding quads, eating and America. Stephen and Renee love organic food, exercising and spending $40,000 for their children to go to private schools. Normally the 2 very different families end up coming together and learning vital family lessons from each other. Not this time.

I'm going to just discuss Gayla's time spent in California with Stephen. I know my words really aren't going to do justice to how horribly Gayla was treated while "living" at Stephens house, so I'm going to post some of the awful things he said.

While having a discussion with Gayla about his son ever telling him he wanted to move to Missouri and why he wouldn't let him: “People in the middle of the country frankly (laughs) are just like you. It’s amazing - uneducated, simple and without a clue about what’s going on in the world. You’re undereducated; over opinionated and you’re overweight. It’s not a good combination Gayla."

“Yeah, [tomorrow is] rule change. That means starting tomorrow we have the pleasure of pretending we live in some Podunk town in Missouri. That will be interesting, won’t it?” I think he called her town Podunk at least 5 times.

Gayla says, “You keep degrading me in front of your kids.” Stephen laughs and says, “That’s easy.” Gayla says, “You think you’re so much better than me”? Stephen says, “I probably earn more in one week than you do in a year.” Once again him being horrible and trying to show the world how much better he is than her, yet just makes himself look like an ass.

Gayla is reading at the rule change ceremony and Stephen says: “You read that so well. Congratulations. I didn’t know that you could read.” “Agenda? That’s a big word for you. Clearly your two languages appear to be bad English, and redneck.”

“Look you dumb redneck, I’ve already told you once.” One of his common responses to her if she asked him a question more than once because he would ignore her and she was forced to keep asking to get an answer out of him.

Stephen Fowler says: I’ve said that you’re underachieving, under educated, over opinionated and overweight.” “Have a nice life. Don’t send any kids after me with a shotgun. Alan asks what Stephen means by his comment and Stephen says, “That’s just a final insult.”

Another Daddy Cuts Off The Trust Fund..

Photobucket



You probably don't know who Courtenay Semel is and if your like me you probably don't care about her either. But I do love hearing about the rich who have had their trust funds cut off!!

So who is she? Well she is no one. I'm not trying to just be mean, she seriously is a nobody, but like other rich girls, thinks she is a somebody. Her daddy used to be the CEO of Yahoo until 2007 and that's what made her "famous". She also dated Lindsay Lohan(which was Lindsay's first girlfriend), was seen making out with Tila Tequila(another MTV made "famous" person), and dated Casey Johnson(who's hair she set on fire but denies ever doing).

Anyway Daddy Terry Semel has frozen Courtenay's trust fund. She cried to the New York Post about how he won't answer her phone calls and told them "I don't want to be known for all this craziness in my life". Well here's an idea Courtenay-Stop doing stupid shit!!

Apparently the reason he froze "her" money was her most recent public outburst in Vegas when a security guard wouldn't allow her into the VIP section because he had no idea who she was. She told the Caesar's Palace guard "just fucking Google me, you dumb fuck."

Now poor Courtenay's on her own and is working on her reality show. Why does she get/need a reality show? Your guess is as good as mine. I have no idea what she does that is just so interesting that she needs a show, but I'm thinking that without daddy's money the show will probably suck even more. How are we supposed to watch her go shopping, hang out at the spa, party and whatever else she does without his money. Oh yeah and she is 29- Guess she figured that since she is getting older she should make her own money and what better way than to have cameras follow her around!

Chris Brown Arrested!!!

Photobucket


At about 3:30 Pacific time, just as the crowd was filing into the Staples Center for The Grammy Awards, Los Angeles police released a report saying Chris Brown was under investigation for an incident that occured the night before where he allegedly assaulted a woman.

The report said he and a woman were driving in the ritzy neighborhood of Hancock Park when they began to argue around 12:30 a.m. Sunday. Brown then stopped the car and both got of them got out, then the argument escalated. The woman, who had visible injuries when police arrived, identified Brown as her attacker. But according to the report, Chris Brown had already left the scene before the authorities could question him.

Brown and his girlfriend Rihanna were both scheduled to perform in different slots of the show, but separately dropped out at the last minute. She was supposed to sing "Live Your Life/Disturbia" as the second performance of the night, he was to sing "Forever." Luckily the Recording Academy found replacements for their performance slots with Justin Timberlake, Al Green, Boyz II Men and Keith Urban singing Green's classic hit, "Let's Stay Together." No mention was made on the broadcast about the switch, but fans who were waiting to see the both of them noticed their absence.

Jail records show that Brown turned himself in to authorities around 7 p.m. and was briefly held and interviewed by detectives before posting $50,000 bail around 9 p.m. Police booked him on suspicion of making a criminal threat, which is a felony. Police did not explain how their initial report of an injury assault related to the charge, but it will ultimately be up to the district attorney's office to decide what charges, if any, should be brought against Brown.


UPDATE:
Insiders have identified the victim as his girlfriend Rihanna. Sources say Brown and Rihanna were seen Saturday night at a pre-Grammy party hosted by music mogul Clive Davis in Beverly Hills. The two posed for pictures and were spotted kissing before they hopped into a waiting silver Lamborghini. But friends of the couple say the kissing was all part of the "happy couple" act and that they had been arguing because Rihanna accused him of checking out other women at Clive Davis' party.

A security guard at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles told the Daily News Sunday night that he saw Rihanna being taken for treatment at the hospital. Later the guard, Rodderick Brown said, "She's been released".

"It seems she's taking the steps you'd need to take if you were going to press charges," says a close source. "But she could wake up tomorrow morning and decide she still loves him." The friend also added that there have been a lot of fights recently because "Rihanna is a clingy girlfriend who can't bear to have Chris out of her sights".

Wow-This story is just crazy...I hope that none of this true!!

Is The Beckham's Relationship On The Rocks??

Photobucket


Rumors have been going around that Victoria Beckham is unhappy that she may be moving out of California in support of her husband. David’s desire to quit LA Galaxy and play permanently with Milan once his loan deal ends, which he said publicly for the first time last week, has already caused tension between the couple.

While David's football future is undecided, Victoria is wasting no time getting on with her own career starting with Fashion Week. She will be traveling alone to the New York event which starts on Friday. She will be there to launch her new collection and attend the parties, including Armani. She wanted David to come because her fashion line is very important to her, but he can’t because he’s playing in Milan. And there have been more fights because the couple won’t be spending Valentine’s Day together. A spokesman for the Beckhams said: "David never attends fashion events with Victoria. She is working, not playing, and David will be in training".

The couple are also said to be arguing over David’s plan to fly his mother Sandra and sister Joanne out to Milan to celebrate Joanne’s 27th birthday. Despite spending Christmas together, there are still tensions between Victoria and David’s family. "David will be flying them out on February 22 so they can watch Milan’s home game against Cagliari, He plans to lavish Jo with gifts and take her shopping in Milan, but it’s caused issues with Victoria. She makes an effort to get on with them, but they don’t gel that well", says a family friend.

If David does end up quitting the LA team and joins Milan obviously the couple will be moving, which will defiantly cause more fighting. "Victoria wants to stay in America, she feels out of place in Milan and gets frustrated by not being able to understand what they are saying", says a close friend. Maybe it's time Posh took some Italian lessons since it, seems they will be moving to Milan if David gets his wishes.

Subway Decides To Stick With Michael

Photobucket


After the above photo was published of Michael Phelps taking a bong hit at a college party, Kellogg's decided not to renew his contract. Subway on the other hand will keep his endorsement deal.

"Like most Americans, and like Michael Phelps himself, we were disappointed in his behavior," the company said. "Also like most Americans, we accept his apology. Moving forward, he remains in our plans."

The swimmer has also been suspended from competition for three months by USA Swimming. However, many of his sponsors, including Visa, Speedo, Omega and Human Performance Labs, have stood by Michael.

"By no means has this been easy," Michael told a cameraman on Thursday. "Bad judgment... and something I'll learn from."

Yes this is the second time he has said this, but maybe this one will cost him a little bit more and he really will learn to do stuff like this in private. I don't care what anybody does, I just think he has been dumb for being at a party and allowing himself to get photographed doing that. Although I do wish I was the one who took this picture-Must of been a nice check lol.
