JENELLE EVANS ON A TRIP TO WAL MART
Teen Mom 2 star, Jenelle Evans took a trip to Walmart to run some errands. The sixteen-year-old mom is doing her best to keep her powder dry and on the right side of the law juggling parenting with normal teen angst.
With life lived under a microscope, Jenelle has a full plate. Blog stats show, Jenelle is currently as big a star (in terms of interest in her life) as one of the Kardashian girls are rating online right now. 2010′s are the decades of the reality TV star.
Think Kristen Stewart as the first Twilight Saga film dropped at the box office a couple of years back, to get a sense of Jenelle’s level of fame at the mo, here in the US.

BUNNY TEETH, BEE STUNG LIPS, TATTOOED SEXY HOLLYWOOD DENIM BILLBOARDS AND HAVING THE MOST AMAZING FAMILY EVER -2.9.11
I have a confession to make, I am perhaps the most compassionless sibling out of all the kids in my family. Most of my siblings live in Aotearoa-New Zealand. One lives in Australia.
Today I looked at this Billboard. It was way too sexy for Middle-America (joking) yet in Hollywood it strangely wasn’t. I look at these two models clinched in a sexy embrace. Her bunny teeth flanked by pumped up bee stung lips with his tattoo ink carving a Young Hollywood picture against blue California skies next to a palm tree.
This is the first billboard you’ll see when you leave my front door. Just a little bit sexy, no?
After photographing this picture of the Hollywood skyline, I get a coffee and enjoy the morning sun. I begin to think family and ‘family projects.’ I am thankful that I have such an amazing family I would love to do ‘family projects’ with.
They are sexy in different ways I think sitting opposite this billboard in warm, California winter’s sunlight, as I ponder my amazing siblings life messages to date. They cling onto things that are perhaps a little bit more important than image, like family, Read the rest of this entry »
YES! I REALLY AM A FACEBOOK FRIEND OF ALISON STEWART
Alison Stewart is one of the most compassionate people I know of in the world. Her legacy of work with time devoted to teenagers and the poor and needy of New Zealand is the stuff that Rosa Parks Hollywood film legends are made of.
Maori young people in particular are Alison Stewart’s forte.
Not that Alison has ever distinguished between a Maori teen or nonMaori teen either. She just loves young people.
It is an honor to be Alison’s Facebook friend. Most of all, to have been a teen growing up and seeing Alison train up a group of women to impact community with good actions, is far more impacting to my life and any bro who saw Alison do her thing, and to all who even remotely know Alison… than being her Facebook friend.
Love puts a face on it, with actions people can see in community. Alison Stewart was that person for many of us growing up as teens. Her home in Tikipunga was legendary for all Ali taught others. Kia Ora Alison Stewart from Hollywood. Thank you for all you taught us growing up in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Even though Ali has never been in a Hollywood movie, I have to put Ali in the action stars line up, on this blog, because Ali’s life is one of action and always has been. Much love from the City of Angels Ali!

BRETT’S CELEBRITY NEWS FROM HOLLYWOOD – 1.22.11
Photo caption – Brett’s Palm Tree – Melrose & Stanley.
Yesterday, when getting cigarettes at Chevron that are so bad for you, a guy said to the Indian Chevron owner, “Did you know if Mother Teresa was still alive today, she’d be 100 f*cking years old.”
Hearing this sentence strung together like that was so odd – yet the mention of a little old ladies name made everyone in the cue, better people, just thinking about what he said.
Mother Teresa is dead, yet we are not. That was his point. Very cool.

DOES TEEN MOM, JENELLE EVANS LIKE HER POT A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH?
Jenelle Evans teen mug shot (above) at the age of 16, after getting her green hooded sweater arrested makes me ask – does she like her mary-jane-juana a little big too much?
I mean, Jenelle was found with a half ounce bag of the green Bob Marley stuff on her and a pipe that did not play music, while her 20 year-old boyfriend, Kieffer Delp made her carry it. What is going on there too? In Hollywood the star shines, their helpers carry everything for them, including their handbags so I guess Kieffer didn’t get that memo. Needless to say he’s not very gentlemanly or chivalrous either.
Anyway Jenelle was released on a $2k bail bond and at 16 she’s doing way too much for that reality TV show series on non school nights. I wonder what the model teen mom students at He Kaakano School for education of bright teen moms would have to say about Jenelle’s latest blaze with the law?
These young moms on their days off parenting with sitters at home looking after their baby Jaces are just so hard to keep up with. And getting arrested over possession of a plant is ridiculous anyway. Where’s the humanitarian hotness for the world in that?
It’s healthy for all parents to have time out from parenting, but these ones all seem to have rather snap-happy weekend lives as breeder reality TV pin-up girls of the USA! Have you noticed that?!

TEEN MOM, AMBER PORTWOOD IS ONLY MAKING US $280,000 PER YEAR
Teenagers (the elixir of American youth), babies (a nation’s potential and future), motherhood (an increasing oddity as new breeders are more scarce these days in the US), girls who can box and domestic violence–are the hot fascinating topics right now rating on entertainment blogs.
Because all of these factors combined create a fascinating mix to the American masses, you would think that teen mom, Amber Portwood, would be making more money than she is.
At the moment Amber Portwood is America’s no.1 break out new ‘star’ heading into 2010. In honor of Amber’s teen angsty trials (hey! Amber still has got plenty of time to get things right), let’s do a Guest Commentary spotlight on Horiwood.Com. Well – according to Hollywood Life Website: (a website that is not actually in Hollywood like this blog is, but let’s be fun and pretend they are):
“After 24 hours in jail, a judge orders Amber to appear in court and reveal what MTV pays her — and it’s much more than anyone thought!
It appears Amber Portwood is taking home some pretty major bucks for her role on the MTV hit show Teen Mom — to the tune of $280,000! In allowing MTV to exploit her life and often volatile personal relationships, the young mom is making more money than most Americans — does this seem fair?
The Teen Mom star was booked on two felony counts and a misdemeanor for domestic battery on Dec. 27., after being picked up by local police at her home in Anderson, Ind., and brought to the Madison County Jail. Upon being released from jail on $5,000 bond, the 20-year-old appeared before Madison County magistrate Steven Clase, using a video feed from the jail, and was ordered to reveal her salary — $280,000!
The Herald Bulletin reports that Amber told the judge that her occupation was a “television personality” and when first asked to state her salary, her lawyer Kathleen Sweeney objected.
Until further notice, Amber is barred from contacting her ex-boyfriend Gary Shirley“indefinitely.”
What do you think of Amber Portwood’s trials? Do you think she should get a raise from the producers of her reality TV show for being such a heavy weight hitter trumping most A-Listed film actresses in entertainment news ratings right now? I do. That’s fair. Why underpay this kid? She’s batting big in headlines generating and rating news. If we showcase her storylines – and Amber’s audiences expand her TV network’s profile with her own–this kid should get paid more. How else will she afford her own college education one day, or that of baby Leah as America’s physics major extraordinaire?

AMBER PORTWOOD, NATLIE PORTMAN, AMERICAN MEDIA SHAKESPEAREAN NARRATIVES OF ENTERTAINMENT
Here in America, everyone believes in democracy. The concept of democracy involves showing two sides of a culture’s coin. It actually can be quite schizophrenic – yet most times the more freakier this divide is, the more popular American entertainment sells worldwide and becomes us all. This is the case when I associate Oscar’s hopes Queen of 2011, young Natalie Portman (cultured nuanced intelligentsia Hasidic Jew conscious, Hollywood, comedic beauty of the world – just announced she’s breeding) with a teen whose already done what Natalie aspires to be doing, Amber Portwood.
Natalie Portwood exists as an agreed (by consensus) topic of celebrity to mirror in tabloids a Shakespearean play-writing technique of comedic manner of entertainment with a Portwood (“lesser” peoples reality TV star narrative VS almighty glamorous film star Portman narrative of US entertainment and pop culture). For example, Natalie is currently Hollywood’s hot favorite to win an Oscar for that movie about ballet swans who could be black (but they aren’t really, in the film’s casting). Amber Portwood by contrast, is a teen mom, struggling with adolescence – when the subtext is, she’s supposed to be Angelina Jolie already, although she’s a teen who still needs to grow–while navigating all of the free choices on offer in the USA – as well as parenting her child.

Hawaii takes the top spot as both the 44thPresident of America and New Zealand’s Prime Minister vacation at the tropical jewel isles location of the USA.

Very French with a Hollywood twist. And Jakey Davis shines with two of his biggest fans, sister Taylor Jane and his mom, teen mom’s champion life coach - The Maori Rose of Sharon across the world in New Zealand. It’s all about children and their world we help and support them create. As you can see, I’m on Jakey’s program as he’s already busting out his Peace sign moves for photos, so fine like already, on a Kiwi beach. Too cute.

WAS AMBER PORTWOOD PAID TO PUNCH OUT FORMER FIANCE GARY SHIRLEY FOR TV RATINGS?
Say it isn’t true? The National Enquirer is reporting that teen mom/ reality star, Amber Portwood was paid a bonus by MTV, if she’d punch her former fiance Gary Shirley for the cameras. This she did. Punching her tattoo artist would have been a more kick ass look, but I guess that can still happen this upcoming season of shooting.
Teen moms!!! I just can’t quite keep up with the pace of their exciting high-drama lives as they seek balance between good parenting, studying and navigating love too. Here in America, teen moms are a real study aren’t they?!
