Booty Pads: Can you tell?

You know, I thought this butt pad thing was just folklore, an urban legend. Never did I think people would actually put on padding to make it look like they were bigger than they were. And when did this whole cottage industry grow up around the fad? Celebrities like Kim Kardashian, and others, are obvious. Now there are even butt pad documentaries.

Butt pads apparently have been in style for quite a few years now. But their origins are still shrouded in mystery. I mean, how are they marketed? I've never seen a booty pad commercial. Never seen an advertisement. Of course, I don't read women's magazines, so maybe that's where they reside (along with at the club. Booty pads definitely reside at the club).
Maybe this is just a natural evolution from the shoulder pad thing. Somebody simply took one of those shoulder pads out and put it under their dress.
Of course, the evidence has been around us for some time now. Celebrities, even random chicks, have been stuffing the stocking with merchandise. And it's a good question now, when you see a roundly-endowed chick, is it Real or [Gluteus] Maximus?
But the question is, is this a fad, or are booty pads here to stay? And would you wear one?

Meagan Good to produce 'Video Girl'

Hollywood actress Meagan Good will take a turn behind the cameras, producing "Video Girl," a film about, well, video girls. The film will star such highly esteemed video stars (I'm using the words loosely here) as Esther Baxter, who's claim to fame is Petey Pablo's "Freak-A-Leek" and Hollywood socialite Claudia Jordan, the black Kardashian. The film sounds like a vanity project, but who knows? Could Meagan bring home an Oscar? Meyer? Weiner?

Hottest name in Hollywood? Kardashian

In three short years, the name Kardashian has become bigger those Hollywood socialite magnets -- the Hilton girls and Nicole Richie -- that spawned them.
With their recent love lives enhancing their brand (not to mention their purses), the Kardashians are the biggest name in Hollywood these days.
Kim, who shot to notoriety after the release of a graphic sex tape of her with Brandy's brother, is so big that her tweets are rumored to be commercial advertisements that fetch upwards of $10,00 a pop (She denies it).
Kloe (known as the 'harsh' looking one) scored the hand of Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom after a courtship that lasted less than the application process for a mortgage.
And even Kourtney (the small one) has her face plastered on TV everywhere and is them mother of the bunch the after recently giving birth to a baby boy (who will no doubt soon be the first infant with a Twitter account).
The girls, quite simply, are everywhere.
But when did the Kardashian name first hit the L.A. scene?
IN the early 1970s, Robert Kardashian, a lawyer, used to hang out with the most recognizable athlete in the United States, O.J. Simpson (Ali was bigger across the world, but in the States his name was mud in alot of states).
O.J. introduced Kardashian to the Hollywood elite and they both raised kids together. The elder Kardashian left law for about a decade though, resurfacing only to aid his friend O.J. in his murder trial. He passed away in 2003 from cancer. His widow, Kris, brought another world-class athlete into the fold: Bruce Jenner.
Now, Kim is courting yet another world-class athlete, Reggie Bush: See where all this is going? The rich get richer ...

Tyra for Halloween: Pepa???

Tyra Banks, illustrating her addiction to all kinds of wigs, called herself trying to dress up for Halloween as Kim Kardashian this week. The only problem is that she inadvertently pulled a dead ringer for Pepa of Salt and Pepa.
To call the similarities stunning would be an understatement. I halfway expected Tyra to go into full "Push It" mode ("You really got me goin. You got me Go-in."

Why Did Lamar Odom Do It?

Well, first off, LamarShian just doesn't sound right. It's just so ... against nature, but then again, the hybrid name couples always do sound funny (Remember the first time you heard Brangelina or Bennifer, or, for goodness sakes, Chrihanna?)
Still, Los Angeles Lakers star Lamar Odom's whirlwind marriage to half-famous Khloe Kardashian just seems, well you know.
"I aint saying she's a gold digger ..."
Of course, Odom will certainly be making some nice coin after signing a four-year $33 million deal this summer. That comes out to about $8 million a year. Of course, we're sure Kardashian didn't marry for the moolah, and if she did, it's her business.
Love is a many-splendored, wonderful thing, but one has to wonder why Odom and KK married so dang fast (a less-than-a-month courtship?)
Did Odom get tired of the Los Angeles groupies that the team surely had?
Did Kobe Bryant turn him out (just saying, Kobe used to be freaky back in the day).
What would make a young multimillionaire playboy up and marry someone he barely knew?
Did he talk to Reggie Bush?
Whatever happened, it's a wrap now. Let man not tear asunder what God hath done did ... but wow, Odom. For real?
"I aint saying she's a gold digger ..."

Kim Kardashian: I've Already Bought the Ring

Somehow celebrity Kim Kardashian says she's already bought the engagement ring for when football star Reggie Bush pops the question.
"He definitely knows all of us went ring shopping," she said recently on Sirius Radio.
Kim has no qualms about taking the initiative and going out and buying an item that secures her love forever.
"I definitely scared him and told him it was probably way more expensive than it is, just so that when he goes he feels like he's getting a good deal," she said. "He knows what it looks like. I think I-ve e-mailed him enough pictures."
Is this kosher, ladies?
Should you buy a ring for your gent without so much as a conversation? And even if there was conversation, would you be secure a enough to drop several thousand?
