Best of the Week: Baby bumps! Bad boys! And break-ups?
Baby Bump of the Week: Beyonce!
MANILA, Philippines - Everyone’s favorite ex-single lady Beyonce Knowles upstaged the winners of the MTV Video Music Awards this week by revealing her baby bump. The sultry mom-to-be’s announcement of her pregnancy set a new record on Twitter with 8,868 tweets per second talking about the coming of destiny’s child!
Street of the Week: Justin Bieber Way
In an effort to get kids interested in government, 11-year-old Caroline Gonzalez got to be mayor of Forney, Texas for a day. Her first act was to rename the city’s Main Street to Justin Bieber Way. Sadly, the sign was stolen hours after it was installed and was returned Thursday afternoon when poor Caroline was no longer mayor and Main Street was, well, Main Street.
Bad Boy of the Week: Matthew Fox
Matthew Fox punched a female bus driver this week after she refused to let him get on the party bus that she was driving. The Lost star was taken into custody immediately after the incident, while his victim was left shouting, “Fox you!”
Anticipated Movie of the Week: The Hunger Games
Juicy movie news alert! Also at the VMAs this week, The Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence introduced the trailer to the movie adaptation of the best-selling thriller, and it didn’t disappoint! The trailer, which is all over the interwebs, is making us so famished for The Hunger Games, we’re already getting ulcers!
Embattled Couple of the Month: KC Concepcion and Piolo Pascual
Have KC Concepcion and Piolo Pascual called it quits? A couple of days ago, Megastar Sharon Cuneta dropped some heavy (no pun intended) clues when she commented on the issue by sending words of reassurance to her daughter. KC responded by denying the break-up on The Buzz, but admitted they’re going through some problems.
Bongga Mo Teh! Achievement Award: Petra Ecclestone
We don’t need to tell you that Ecclestone is a more sosyal-sounding last name than Kardashian, but we do need to tell you that Formula One heiress Petra Ecclestone made Kim K’s wedding look like an unplanned Vegas ceremony. The world’s richest bride (according to People magazine) tied the knot in a lavish $7.7-million ceremony, which is less than Kim’s $10-million wedding, but at least she didn’t have to solicit wedding sponsors so that she could get freebies.
Cabinet Secretary of the Week: Ramon Jimenez
Following the resignation of Alberto Lim as Tourism secretary, P-Noy announced this week that he’s chosen advertising executive Ramon Jimenez as Lim’s replacement. In a press conference at Malacañang, Jimenez said marketing the Philippines should be “as easy as selling Chickenjoy.” And with Venus Raj’s chicken wings eating prowess, we’ve found the perfect major endorser.
