    Excuse me, I need to introduce some bad-assery here for the sake of us all--everyone seems soooo frightened of losing their precious stars and as such shun any hint of dissent. Lame. What's the fun of Gawker if you stifle intelligent polemic?

    Happy Sunday to you too, pet. Ding-ding-ding + ca-ching:
    *"Get your Canadian visas ready..," not "Get your Candian visas ready.."
    *"winter soup," not "Winter soup"
    * "As the sole proprieter of Jackson's only assassination attempt, I wouldn't expect Jackson to be anything but a Coke fan, either."
    *"proprietor," not "proprieter," though it doesn’t matter since the sentence jumped ‘em rails by the time you got to the period.
    *Mike Myers, not "Meyers"
    *Leven Rambin," not "Levin Rambin"
    *Lukas Haas, not "Lucas Haas"
    * "the shit? blow?" not "the shit? Blow?" (Jerze housewives item)
    *You get a pass on Ashley Dupre (it’s "Dupré") because she’s a foxymoron.
    *"..on her man," not "..on her mans." (Chris Rock item, 2nd sentence)
    *Cut xtra apostrophe in "Lil' "Lipgloss" Mama," + she spelled the title of the song "Lip Gloss"
    * "..during her first day on the job," not "..in her first day on the job.." (Sienna Miller item)

    Nothing will happen. Maybe a minor fine. At best. If they fine him or punish him it opens doors for the producers (I'd believe) to have a ruling against him to use in a civil suit, no?


    If AEA does this to a high profile union member then other high profile mems might say, "What the hell do I need the union for?" and leave the union. Which could, in and of itself, cause the death of the union if enough high profile mems quit.


    Those with legal knowledge better than mine might have answers to these questions to prove I'm an idiot.

    Whenever celebs make this bullsh** excuses (canceling tours for "exhaustion"; collapsing from "dehydration"), I always wish someone would nail them.


    Now hand me some popcorn and toss me a beer from the cooler, I'm going to enjoy watching this game get played.
