I agree as well. I don't know why some filmmakers have this obsession with Lindsay playing actresses that she hardly resembles. First it was Linda Lovelace, now it's Elizabeth Taylor. You would think studios would want an actress who at least actually looks like the star they're portraying. Also, with all her public trouble, I don't know why studios would even risk using her. I guess any publicity is good publicity.

I also heard that Shaq and Dwight Howard do not like each other at all, especially since Shaq disliked Dwight's use of the Superman gimmick by calling him a Shaq-wannabe.

Cecil Fielder: ‘I Love My Son’

February 18, 2012 3:20 PM

Cecil Fielder gave an unusually frank interview to 97.1 The Ticket’s Bob Wojnowski and Jamie Samuelsen at Saturday’s SportsFest event in Novi where he said — once and for all — he wants to settle the feud with his superstar son Prince Fielder.

“I had some great times in that stadium,” Fielder said about the old Tiger Stadium. “My son had some great times there… I have a special place in my heart for Tiger Stadium.”

Discussing his son, who recently signed a $214 million contract with the Detroit Tigers, seemed to open the floodgates for Fielder, who usually shies away from discussing their relationship. The two have a well-known rift.

“I gave that boy everything I had, as far as the game of baseball,” Fielder told Wojo and Samuelsen.

Wojo asked if the ice could melt between Fielder and his son.

“He’s my son, I love my son,” Fielder said. “There’s some disconnect there…I’m going to extend the olive branch to him…We need to put it away.”

Fielder said he last spoke to his son at Christmas; previously, the two hadn’t spoken in two years, he said. He said he called because he needed his son “and his Mama to act like they had some sense.”

But the rift is apparently still there.

“We’re going to have to talk and move on,” Fielder added.

Fielder also discussed his 51-home run season with the Tigers, and what was going on at the time.

“I was just ready for the season to be over,” Fielder said. “It was a long grind.”

So, what does he most remember about the moment he hit the final smash over the wall?

“(Opponent) Don Mattingly said ‘Just go out there and do it…’ That helped me get through it,’” Fielder revealed.

John Mayer recently told Rolling Stone that he was "really humiliated" from Taylor Swift's song 'Dear John'.

"It made me feel terrible because I didn't deserve it. I'm pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do."

"I never got an e-mail. I never got a phone call. I was really caught off-guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I'd already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you've ever been, someone kicked you even lower?"

"I will say as a songwriter that I think it's kind of cheap songwriting. I know she's the biggest thing in the world, and I'm not trying to sink anybody's ship, but I think it's abusing your talent to rub your hands together and go, 'Wait till he gets a load of this!' That's bullsh*t."



*Taylor Swift has never officially confirmed that the song was about him, however it is "generally understood" that it is.

For Daytime soap fans:

Kim Zimmer and Robin Strasser at one-point had a feud that has since been apparently squashed. When Kim appeared on OLTL in the 1980's as Echo DiSavoy she became immensely popular and was a hit with viewers; which apparently Robin didn't care for and rumor has it Robin who was dating a producer at the time got Kim fired from the series.

In her book, Zimmer discusses this although she never officially names Robin as the woman, however it is generally understood that Robin is the one she was discussing. Since then however both ladies have made amends and Kim appeared on OLTL as Echo from 2009 until it's end in 2012.


Former OLTL star Ellen Holly, who played Carla Grey, one of the series original characters has since released an interview stating she has an on-going feud with OLTL producer Agnes Nixon and ABC for apparently being racist towards her and treating her poorly. She also calls out producer Paul Raunch, and star Erika Slezak as being racist towards her and treating her like garbage. She alleges that because she is black she was forced to be paid less than other OLTL stars, was not allowed to have an agent negotiate her contracts and was called fat, stupid, ugly and told her voice was horrible and offensive and that she was verbally harassed on a daily basis by various producers including former ABC head Jackie Smith.

She also claims that while being promoted as the star of the series she was not paid like other lead actresses; she says while she was promoted as OLTL's star in the way that Slezak was and that Susan Lucci was on AMC, she made merely a fraction of what they made.
