The assistant director of the funeral home told TMZ the pathologists who performed the autopsy concluded Jett Travolta died from a seizure. Jett Travolta’s death certificate lists “seizure” as the cause of death. No word on the coroner’s findings, at least not yet. read more

Devastated John – who was in France to shoot his last movie From Paris with Love – told yesterday how he fought desperately to save his dying son. Jett, 16, had a “slight pulse” when his nanny Jeff Kathrein found him collapsed in a hotel bathroom on a family holiday in the Bahamas. Grease star Travolta, 54, said: “I tried the kiss of life for about 20 minutes. I wouldn’t give up. Jeff gave Jett CPR. read more

The nation’s top selling conservative author has been banned from appearing on NBC, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT. ”We are just not going to have her on any more, it’s over,” a top network source explains. But a second top suit strongly denies there is any “Coulter ban”.

“Look for a re-invite, as soon as Wednesday,” said the news executive, who asked not to be named. NBC’s TODAY show abruptly cut Ann Coulter from its planned Tuesday broadcast, claiming the schedule was overbooked.

Executives at NBC TODAY replaced Coulter with showbiz reporter Perez Hilton, who recently offered $1,000 to anyone who would throw a pie at Ann Coulter. Hilton is also launching a new book this week, RED CARPET SUICIDE. Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.

One network insider claims it was the book’s theme — a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era — that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist. ”We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now,” a TODAY insider reveals. “It’s such a downer. It’s just not the time, and it’s not what our audience wants, either.” Drudge

Thug Life

Bossip seems to think they have have the lowdown on what happened to Biggie and Tupac

Bossip- Biggie and Pac were both murdered by the South Side Crips in Compton. There is no conspiracy theory!

First, Diddy and Biggie were “loosely” affiliated with the South Side Crips in Compton. Orlando Anderson (”Baby Lane”) who Tupac and Deathrow beat down that night was a member of this gang. After getting beat down, Baby Lane found his homies who were in Vegas and laid down Tupac that night with Suge just escaping death. (Orlando Anderson later was killed in Compton).

Aware of the ongoing Deathrow/Badboy beef, the crips saw the killing of Tupac as a business opportunity. They approached Biggie and indicated they had killed Tupac for him and wanted some money and Biggie told them he wasn’t paying them sh*t and didn’t tell them to murder Pac. It was on after that and the crips killed Biggie when he came back to LA. This is all based on information Bossip has obtained from highly placed sources who were in the know at the time of Biggie’s death.

I can cook your brain

 We at miamipress.net feel it is our duty to point out how clueless the average celeb really is…mpress 

The Celebrities and Science Review 2008, prepared by the group Sense About Science, identifies some of the worst examples of scientific illiteracy among those who profess to know better – including top politicians. 

 Other mentions went to the chefs Nigella Lawson, who said “mind meals” can make you feel different about life, and Delia Smith, who claimed it is possible to eliminate sugar from the diet. The dietician Catherine Collins said that Lawson’s support for expensive allergy foods is a wasted opportunity and too costly for those on limited incomes, while Lisa Miles of the British Nutrition Foundation said that sugars are part of a balanced diet. When it comes to science, Barack Obama is no better than many of us. Today he joins the list of shame of those in public life who made scientifically unsupportable statements in 2008.  read more

Hollywoods Holiday Flicks

As the years go on he ages in reverse and we follow along on this journey through love, life and all the bumps along the way.

2. Yes Man

One word can change everything.

Yes Man came out on top of this weekends box office charts proving that Jim Carrey is true to form with his comedic portrayal of a man who sets out to change his life by saying yes to everything. With this new outlook Carl Allen (Carrey) opens up his life to a promotion and a new romance (Zooey Deschanel). But his willingness to say yes might just be too much of a good thing.

3. Marley & Me

Heel the love.

This film is the feel good movie of the holiday season. Marley and Me is based on the best-selling book by John Grogan of life with the world’s best-worst dog. Jennifer Anniston and Owen Wilson star as the owners of Marley, a loveable retriever who can cause more destruction and laughter than any dog on the planet. But the film isn’t just about the dog, it has underlying lessons we can all learn about the rollercoaster of life.

4. The Spirit

Down these mean streets a man must come. A hero born, murdered, and born again.

For all you Scarlett Johansson and Eva Mendes fans out there here is the film for you. Samuel L. Jackson stars along with these beautiful women in a film about a resurrected cop, The Spirit, locked in battle to prevent the evil villain, The Octopus, from destroying the metropolis on his quest for immortality. The Spirit must navigate through the landmines of treacherous beauties who have set out to seduce and destroy him on his mission to save Central City.

5. The Wrestler

This much hyped film tells the story of a question familiar to every retired wrestler: give up the glory or go for one more victory?

Mickey Rourke plays Randy “The Ram” Robinson a wrestler who is trying to repair a relationship with his estranged daughter (Evan Rachel Wood) and start a life with his stripper girlfriend (Marisa Tomei) while hanging on to the heydays of his career. When the opportunity to face his longtime nemesis presents itself The Ram must decide which is more important, glory or life.

6. The Tale of Despereaux

Small Hero. Big Heart.

This tale of a mouse with ears to big for his head and the soul of a human is targeted at the kids but looks enjoyable for all.

After being banished from Mouseworld, Despereaux sets out on an adventurous journey to save Princess Pea from her kidnappers and face his former rescuer turned nemesis Roscuro. Despereaux is a classic tale of the little guy learning that he has the courage to face evil and fill his armor.

7. Valkyrie

Many saw evil. They dared to stop it.

Opening Christmas weekend is the long awaited Tom Cruise film Valkyrie. Set at the height of World War II, Cruise stars as Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg a wounded soldier who returns to join the German Resistance and helps hatch a plan to assassinate Adolf Hitler. When plans break down von Stauffenberg finds himself in a place of having to lead the coup to take over control of his governament and assassinate Hitler himself.

8. Bedtime Stories

Whatever they dream up… he has to survive.

In another holiday film meant for the kids, Adam Sandler plays Skeeter Bronson, a hotel handyman who realizes that the stories he tells his niece and nephew at bedtime are starting to come true. As he tries to tailor the outlandish stories to help his family the kids add elements that make the adventures grow. This film may not be for you but Disney knows you can never go wrong with raining gumballs and a wild eyed hamster.

9. Nothing But The Truth

Don’t Reveal the Source.

Kate Beckinsale, Matt Damon and Alan Alda star in this film based on the headlines of the Judith Miller/Valerie Plame/Scooter Libby CIA leak.

Beckinsale plays reporter Rachel Armstrong who publishes a story revealing the identity of CIA agent Erica Van Doren (Vera Farmiga). After refusing to reveal her source she is jailed and a legal battle rages with both women fighting to protect what is theirs. The star studded cast is rounded out with Angela Bassett, Noah Wylie and David Schwimmer.

10. Seven Pounds

Seven Names. Seven Strangers. One Secret.

It’s hard to give a synopsis of this film without giving away the entire storyline. So I’ll keep you intriuged by saying that Academy Award nominee Will Smith stars as Ben Thomas an IRS agent trying to make amends with his past. Along the way he discovers true love and forever changes the lives of seven strangers.

11. Revolutionary Road

How do you break free without breaking apart?

Want to score bonus points with your girlfriend this holiday weekend, take her to see Revolutionary Road. Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet team up again for this incredible story of a couple struggling against social norms in the 1950’s-era suburbs.

But when April plans an escape to a more exciting life for them in Paris Frank wants to stay where they are. ht/saltymilk

Greatest President elect ever

The world has never seen so much praise bestowed on anyone in history who has done so little. Although wining the election is no small task, having a lock on 90% of the media, 95% of the black vote, 99% of the entertainment industry vote and 100% of the moron vote helped. Time Magazine which is slowly going out of business claims Obama Man of the Year. Well after the over 30 covers depicting Obama as the Messiah or God himself who would have guessed. Obama can not be a mortal man. Man of the year does him no justice. The press has elevated him to something that is more than just a mere man. 

We celebrate Obama for what he really is, a big ass Socialist who wants to tax the hell out of your property, food, entertainment, travel, work, school, fun, pain, health, water and air. Is there anything I left out?………mpress

I don't believe in divorce

Drew Peterson must be the envy of every husband who would wish his wife would just disappear.

Drew Peterson, who is still married to his missing wife Stacy, is now engaged to a 23-year-old Chicago-area woman, his publicist said today. Glenn Selig said the 54-year-old former police sergeant has been seeing the woman for about four months. She’s the same age Stacy was when she disappeared last October. If they marry, she will be Peterson’s fifth wife. “This is a private matter as far as we’re concerned,” Selig said. “And he’s entitled to be happy.” full story

Che will get me an Oscar for sure!!!

Only in Hollywood can a murdering Communist like Che get a 4 hour homage 

The leftists will not let history or facts taint their love for a man who almost started WW3. A man who would have made it impossible for the out of touch rich capitalist actors who travel with an entourage of capitalists Hollywood types to make this masterpiece. These leftist are so twisted and fake. This is nothing but self hatred. These  idiots are capitalist pigs who Che hated and wanted dead. And these asshole honor his dead memory. The best review of this garbage comes from the NY Posts Kyle Smith…mpress

MEET Che Guevara. Just think of him as Jesus plus Abraham Lincoln with a touch of Moses and Dr. Doug Ross. After 4½ hours of watching Dr. Ernesto “Che” Guevara heal the sick, teach the illiterate, daze the women, execute the lawless, defeat the corrupt, uplift the peasantry and spew the sound bite, I was convinced there would be a scene in which he turned water to Bacardi. 

You can’t spell cliché without “Che.” And as I endured this mad dream directed - or perhaps committed - by Steven Soderbergh, I wondered where I’d seen it all before. The booted stomping through the greensward, the jungly target shooting? It’s a remake of Woody Allen’s “Bananas,” right? Minus punch lines - or perhaps with them. “We are in a difficult situation,” Che observes, at a point when his army is surrounded and forced to eat its horses.

“From this day on, the official language of San Marcos will be Swedish. Silence! In addition to that, all citizens will be required to change their underwear every half-hour. Underwear will be worn on the outside so we can check. Furthermore, all children under 16 years old are now… 16 years old!”

The story of the Argentine doctor Ernesto “Che” Guevara is played with much broody self-importance by Benicio Del Toro. It will be shown in two parts after its one-week opening run. That way, on consecutive evenings, it can bore everyone but activist grad students.

You have to return for a second day to see the full boring film? This is certainly a great marketing ploy…NOT!

There are banana boats of chitchat about Bolivian mining strikes and agrarian land reform amid messages about how “a true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love” (that, and Molotov cocktails) and “you have to live as if you’ve already died.” If ever a movie needed Kim Cattrall to slink into the frame, it’s this one. “Honey, love the beret, but if anything’s to die for, it’s the quilted Chanel tote, not toothless Bolivian farmers.”

At least Michael Moore will be fascinated by hours of chitchat about Bolivian mining strikes and agrian land reform but not many others.

Part I, set almost entirely in Cuba as Castro and Guevara creep through the jungle, builds to an exciting hand-to-hand fight in the streets, then ends abruptly before our heroes even parade into La Habana, though not before Che can deliver one last lecture on how “I’d rather walk to Havana than drive in a stolen car.” (The movie is based on two books - written by Guevara, so we know they’re accurate.)

Part II skips the Che/Castro follies in Cuba and Che’s adventures in Africa to settle in 1966 Bolivia. Che will spend the next two hours trudging around the mountains changing his name (first he’s “Ramon,” then “Fernando”), accepting worship (”Could I shake his hand again?” asks a guerrilla junior grade), telling his men he’d rather die than slow them down, taking a break during a bizarre cameo by Matt Damon, and jumping the gun on Del Toro’s next gig by gradually proceeding from “unshaven” to “Wolf Man.”

This isn’t a movie so much as a siege. When the screen flashed “Day 302,” I thought it was updating me on how long I had spent in the theater without food, water or access to the Red Cross.

Che, although armed, allows himself to be taken alive, which means an amusing execution in the dust instead of righteous death in battle. Soderbergh (who went native and showed up at the Toronto Film Festival in chunky glasses and arrested-for-vagrancy grooming) takes Che’s point of view as the moment of expiration arrives, sharing with us a vision of a blinding white light as the furry comandante slips into Commie heaven. Say hi to the Rosenbergs for me! Fidel says, “See ya soon.”
