    from today's independent

    (Some cannot be true)

    Mariah Carey

    “When I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can’t help but cry. I mean, I’d love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff.”

    Britney Spears
    "I've never really wanted to go to Japan. Simply because I don't like eating fish. And I know that's very popular out there in Africa."

    Paris Hilton
    “What’s a soup kitchen?”

    Arnold Schwarzenegger


    “I think that gay marriage is something that should be between a man and a woman.”


    Brooke Hogan 2008:


    “You know what? I am actually not that much into voting. I think it’s kinda crazy that a woman is running, because I think that women deal with a lot of emotions and menopause and PMS and stuff. Like, I’m so moody all the time, I know I couldn’t be able to run a country, ‘cause I’d be crying one day and yelling at people the next day, ya know?”


    Brooke Shields


    “I’m so naive about finances. Once when my mother mentioned an amount and I realized I didn’t understand, she had to explain: ‘That’s like three Mercedes'.’ Then I understood.”


    Spencer Pratt
    "We made and spent at least $10 million. The thing is, we heard that the planet was going to end in 2012. We thought, 'We have got to spend this money before the asteroid hits.'"

    Gwyneth Paltrow


    "I'd rather smoke crack than eat cheese from a can.”


    Justin Bieber

    "Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber."

    after a visit to Anne Frank’s House


    Kanye West

    “I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade. I will be the loudest voice.”

    George Bush making the following statement: "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.

    "When the seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea".

    -Eric Cantona

    This was actually a very clever quote that got a lot of publicity and portrayed Monsieur Cantona as an idiot. He meant that he wasnt going to add fuel to the fire by talking about an issue (Kicking a fan) by further digging himself into a hole.

    So in his mind, he was the trawler, the media were the seagulls and the sardines were whatever he was going to say that the media could use.

    Donna Air to the Corrs:

    We know what he meant. It was the buffoonish attempt at sounding profound that led to him being portrayed as an idiot.

    Talking about his wife there is he? :P

    OP, Kanye West is gonna be so mad that you didn't write his name in bold.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,532 ✭✭✭Lou.m


    Charlie Sheen.
    “I’m not Thomas Jefferson. He was a pussy.”

    “If you’re a part of my family, I will love you violently.”

    “Winning, anyone? Rhymes with winning. Anyone? Yeah, that would be us. Sorry, man, didn’t make the rules. Oops!”

    "We are High Priest vatican assasin warlocks BOOM!"


    Bear in mind considering the second one he has been charged with assaulting a girlfriend previously.


    Mel Gibson...ah Mel..really takes the cake
    Tell me that the message of something, your doing something, trying to f** breast feed with foreign bodies in you. Was that it?


    "You're an embarrassment to me, you look like a f---ing pig in heat, and if you get raped by a pack of n---ers, it will be your fault."

    "F**king Jews...the Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world.""Are you a Jew?"

    "I am going to come and burn the f--king house down... but you will blow me first." After which he then said " How dare you be such a bitch to me when I am being so ****ing nice"

    Threatening his ex-girlfriend on a tape discovered in 2010, during a fight.

    "You don’t have any f*ucking friends except me, and you treat me like shi*! So that’s why I’m so f**king angry, because I don’t have any friends!



    An audio released July 12 shows Mel Gibson screaming expletives at his ex-girlfriend...for not being his friend.

    Poor sexist racist crazy angry Mel ...can't understand why he doesn't have friends he only threatens to kill random people ...


    Jessica Simpson


    “Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish? I know it’s tuna, but it says ‘Chicken by the Sea.’”

    Tara Reid
    “I make Jessica Simpson look like a rock scientist.”


    Cameron Diaz on science
    Cameron Diaz on science“I’ve been noticing gravity since I was very young.”
    ??


    Sylvester Stallone
    “The only happy artist is a dead artist, because only then you can’t change. After I die, I’ll probably come back as a paintbrush.” –


    Mike Tyson
    “I guess I’m gonna fade into Bolivian.”

    Ann Coulter.....ah Ann I want to be the more intelligent leftie version of you is that wrong?
    "Her children knew she's sleeping with all these men. That just seems to me, it's the definition of 'not a good mother.' Is everyone just saying here that it's okay to ostentatiously have premarital sex in front of your children? [Diana is] an ordinary and pathetic and confessional - I've never had bulimia! I've never had an affair! I've never had a divorce! So I don't think she's better than I am."


    After Hallé Berry won and Oscar.


    "Berry said her triumph was a victory 'for every nameless, faceless woman of color who now has a chance because this door tonight has been opened.' Yes, at long last, the 'glass ceiling' had been broken. Large-breasted, slightly cocoa women with idealized Caucasian features finally have a chance in Hollywood! They will, however, still be required to display their large breasts for the camera and to discuss their large breasts at some length with reporters." "I like black people too, Julia!"


    "My libertarian friends are probably getting a little upset now but I think that's because they never appreciate the benefits of local fascism."


    (talking to a disabled Vietnam vet) "People like you caused us to lose that war."

    She earns millions as a political pundit writing cracked books full of that stuff.



    Barbara Amiel.
    Here in Canada, in the Western world, we are inside the walls. Outside the walls are the barbarians.

    Sometimes I wish I were the cold-hearted bitch I’m said to be. And in a sense, I am.

    My extravagance knows no bounds.
    Her extravagance got her husband in jail for fraud!
    Those of you who don't know Barbara Amiel ...she is a right wing facist anti woman goldigging bitch.

    "If I said what I was really thinking about this f**ked up world, the government would assassinate me like all the other people they've killed."

    -Lee Ryan from Blue.


    And as part of Blue being interviewed after 9/11:

    Lee Ryan: "What about whales? They are ignoring animals that are more important. Animals need saving and that's more important. This New York thing is being blown out of proportion." Simon Webbe: "Shut up Lee". Lee: "Who gives a f**k about New York when elephants are being killed". Duncan James: "Shut up". Lee: "I'm not afraid to say this, it has to be said and that's why I'm the outspoken one from the band".

    "The subscription model of buying music is bankrupt" - Steve Jobs

    In fairness though, he did some quite remarkable and inspirational things too, so we'll let him off with that one :P

    For example:
    "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure -- these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish."
