Jennifer Love Hewitt isn’t a fatty anymore because she recently lost 18 pounds.

Okay, actually, I never thought Jennifer Love Hewitt was fat. I think she’s beautiful and curvy and a real woman. Six months ago when all the magazines and celebrities were calling her fat it really pissed me off that they were attacking a normal girl who isn’t a stick but who certainly isn’t fat.

I was proud of her because instead of slinking down into the darkness and becoming a skeleton Jennifer stood up for herself saying things lik, “To set the record straight, I’m not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image.” And, “A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn’t make you beautiful. … To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini – put it on and stay strong.”

Recently though Jennifer sat down with Health Magazine to talk about her recent 18 pound weight loss. Is it a crime to lose weight? Of course not, good for her that she is trying to get more healthy. The thing is though, it’s almost like she doesn’t believe in what she used to say and she’s kind of sending the message, “You have to be a size 0 to be happy and beautiful.”

Honestly, if something like that had happened to me, even on a much smaller scale I would probably give in too. So on the one hand it’s like you have to be proud of her and give her a hand for a lifestyle change and on the other it’s sad because they got her. They got what they wanted. They (media) humiliated someone about their weight and no matter how hard she tried to stay proud and strong in the end she decided she had to lose weight.

Anyway, Jennifer Love Hewitt looks great (as always) and she’s training for a marathon so props to her on that.

It was recently reported that Christina Applegate, everyone’s favorite TV hottie, was diagnosed with breast cancer. I’m happy to report though that Christina kicked cancer to the curb!

This morning in an interview on Good Morning America Christina Applegate announced that her very talented doctors were able to totally remove the cancer in her breast.

ABC news reported Applegate saying, “I’m clear, absolutely 100 percent clear and clean. … They got everything out so I’m definitely not going to die from breast cancer.”

Breast cancer is a very scary thing for any woman and the chance that it will come back is always mortifying. It’s fantastic that they were able to win this battle and I can only hope that it’s gone for good. Congrats to Christina!

Comedian/actor Ellen DeGeneres got married over the weekend to her long time girlfriend Portia de Rossi who is also an actor. The two promised they would get married as soon as the ban on gay marriage was deemed unconstitutional and unbanned, and they did.

According to a PEOPLE spokesperson Ellen and Portia had a small, intimate ceremony in there Los Angeles home.

I want to give a big congratulations to Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi. The whole ban on gay marriage is just ridiculous in my opinion and I think it’s great these two had a chance to get married, just like all of us silly hetero’s do.

I hope you stay together forever and ever!

Bernie Mac died pretty suddenly on Saturday and now I found out that Isaac Hayes died too.

65 year old singer and actor Isaac Hayes was found by a family member collapsed next to his treadmill. He died an hour later in the Baptist East Hospital in Memphis. Circumstances of his death aren’t known.

One odd thing about this death is that he’d just wrapped up filming for an upcoming movie with Bernie Mac called “Soul Men”. Very ominous.

Hayes is best known for writing and performing the theme song for “Shaft” and has been billed as one of the best and most progressive artists of our time. Let’s just say he was rapping before anyone knew what rap was. He’s also very well known to the youngin’s for his role of Chef on “South Park”.

Daily Brew wishes the Hayes family well. He will be missed.

Bernie Mac died WTF?

About three weeks ago comedian and actor Bernie Mac was hospitalized due to a bout of pneumonia. His family and friends, and even his doctors expected Bernie to make a full recovery from it but as the day’s started to pass they started to lose hope.

Bernie Mac died on Saturday at the age of 50 from complications due to pneumonia at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

I’m so shocked about this I don’t even know what else to say. I didn’t even know he was in the hospital. The Daily Brew’s heart goes out to his loved ones. Shock.

After Morgan Freeman got in a terrible car crash it came out that he had a symbolic car crash in his marriage. Yes that’s right, Morgan Freeman is getting divorced. This news is really weird to me because Morgan Freeman is one of those actors that’s so brilliant yet stays out of the spotlight so you don’t know if he’s married or not. I guess he is/was.

He and his apparently classy and cute wife Myrna Colley-Lee (she’s in the costume biz) have been married for 24 years. No one knows or at least is saying why but dang. A year away from the big quarter century 25 years and you end it. It’s probably because he was a jerk, you know because it’s always the guy ruining relationships.

Oh and if you wanted an update on his health status, he’s doing a lot better and still smiling, but frowning sometimes because of the divorce.

Terrible news today. Morgan Freeman was hospitalized today and is in serious condition after an incredibly bad car crash.

The crash happened in Mississippi. The car veered off the highway and then flipped several times. Rescue workers had to use the jaws of life just to get Moran Freeman out. Witnesses said the 71 year old actor seemed coherent enough to joke a bit as he was taken to the ambulance but he faces a long road of recovery ahead.

I absolutely love Moran Freeman. He’s genius in any role he plays. I believe him, he gets to me. I really hope he comes out of this ok, because it’s not his time!

Also I hate to bring this up, but this better not be one of those movie curses for the Batman cast members. You know like Poltergeist. First Heath and now Morgan? Damn the though.

Matthew Broderick is married to Sarah Jessica Parker. Matthew Broderick used to be Mr. Cool Ferris Bueller’s Day Off guy. Matthew Broderick grew up and turned into a total Broadway nerd who is lucky to be married to a cool cat like Sarah Jessica Parker. Sadly though, I’m afraid the fact that he played someone cool in a movie warped his mind so now Matthew Broderick still think he’s Ferris Bueller, this hot guy that can do whatever he wants and get away with it because he’s tricky and cool. He was mistaken.

You see Daily Brew friends, Matthew Broderick was caught cheating on his lovely wife Sarah Jessica Parker with some 25 year old hussie youth counselor that he met at a bar. Not cool Matthew. Not only is it not cool, it’s really skeezy, especially when they paraded around town together, in public for all to see while little Square Peg Sarah Jessica was filming Sex in the City in L.A. um, you know, because she’s cool and sexy enough to make that show a hit. You’re cheating on THAT Matthew?

Look at that picture and tell me he’s good enough for her? I’m not saying she’s the most amazing and beautiful woman in the world, but she could do better than him and he just opened the door and gave her a reason to start lookin.

Matthew Broderick is stupid.

P.S. The home wrecker also has a nick name for Matthew Broderick; “Matty Cakes”. Seriously? You are having a torrid affair with Inspector Gadget and that’s all you could come up with? At least screw around with someone more creative, you are on Broadway for hell’s sake.

Christian Bale went all Batman on his own mom and sister on Sunday and allegedly assaulted them. It’s being speculated that Christian Bale was fighting with his mom and sister about money before the premiere of The Dark Knight and because it was the premiere the cops decided to wait to pick him up because hey, who wants to screw up what was sure to be one of the most packed and amazing premiere’s of all time?

Scotland Yard arrested Christian Bale this morning in his London hotel and he’s somehow considered a flight risk. That’s really weird to me because he’s charged with an assault that happened on Sunday and he’s a flight risk, yet they don’t pick him up until Tuesday? Mmmmmmk.

I love Christian Bale. I’ve loved him since I first saw him in Newsies and from what he sang, I’m pretty sure it’s not his fault he assaulted his own family. Have a read: “So that’s what they call a family, mudder, fadder, daughter, son. Guess everything you heard about is true. So you ain’t got any family? Well, who said you needed one? Ain’tcha glad nobody’s waiting up for you?” Really rips at your heart strings don’t it? The point is, Jack Christian Bale apparently grew up without a mudda or fadder or anyone to look out for him so how is he supposed to know how to act towards a mudda?

All kidding aside, I hope this isn’t true. My fantasies of him don’t have room for assault . . .

P.S. There were all these stories floating around lately about how nice Christian Bale is. He always takes the time to stop and sign autographs and be cool to his fans, so it would be interesting to hear what really happened there.

This is my official plea to celebrities, movie/TV stars if you will, trying their hands (vocal chords) at singing: LEAVE THE SINGING TO SINGERS.

Dear Scarlett Johansson and Hayden Panettiere, I know you are actually decent actors. I have a chick crush on Scarlett because I can’t believe she is my same age and has those kind of acting chops. I’ll watch anything that girl is in. As for Hayden Panettiere, I was first introduced to her in an episode of “Law & Order: SVU” in which she was playing a teenage slut who murdered someone. Now she is on “Heroes” and I think she’s perfect for the role. I obviously like these two women, and that’s why I have to break the news.

Both Scarlett Johansson and Hayden Panettiere have albums coming out. Singing albums, not photo albums which they might actually be good at. When I heard about these albums I was kind of excited because who knows what celebrities can do? However, after listening to songs from each of their albums my heart started to cry salty tears and my eyes started to cry bloody tears and my ears, well they just went deaf.

Don’t believe me? Click here to hear a bit of Scarlette Johansson (it’s actually her) and then click here to hear and SEE Hayden Panettiere’s music video. If you are wondering why you recognize Hayden’s song, it’s because it’s sounds exactly like (and exactly as bas as) Paris Hiltons attempt at singing, another celeb that can’t sing, but she can’t act either and I actually don’t really consider her a celebrity at all.

Do I think this is the worst music I’ve ever heard? Not even close, but it sure as hell isn’t good they just can’t sing like real singers. Now, one very odd case of celeb/singer is Zooey Deschanel (Elf, Failure to Launch, The Happening). Zooey can actually sing. I mean you heard her in Elf right? I love that her voice has this old timey feel to it, it’s really strong and smooth and beautiful. She’s in this band called She and Him, of which she is the “she”. I was also excited to take a listen to her and was disappointed. While her voice is great, and while I usually really like this kind of music, I don’t know WHAT they did to her. It’s very boring and vibratey and just dull music.

So once again, with the utmost respect I can give to these actors for their acting skills, LEAVE THE SINGING TO SINGERS.
