And Another One Bites the Dust...or in this case Sandra Bullock


As we all know the gorgeous Sandra Bullock has been having a roller-coaster ride with recent incidents occurring in correlation to her love life. Like we haven’t seen enough drama with celebrities and their scandalous “double lives”!

That’s right! There have been recent rumors that Jesse James, her husband of five years, has been following down the same path as our recent notorious cheater Tiger Woods. They’re certainly giving Tiger a break, which I can imagine he is relieved about! The rumors with Jesse began when a so-called Michelle “Bombshell” McGee revealed that she and the star have had sexual relations for the past 11 Months.

McGee is a tattoo obsessed model and stripper who apparently told tabloids she initially made contact through Myspace about a modeling job on the show West Coast Choppers. This then followed up with a meeting where “Bombshell” McGee had driven to James’ West Coast Chopper bike shop in Long Beach. When she spoke with James apparently he wanted more than just to do business with her and pursued with sexual aspirations. She claims that she was unaware of Bullock and James being married because James had been telling her that the two were separated.

Although McGee apologizes to Bullock through tabloids I think we can all agree the damage is done. What began as a simple request through the internet soon grew into today’s current big scandal. Tabloids are now saying that Bullock has plans to get divorced from Jesse James. She has even already proceeded relocating herself and her new son, Louis, to his original hometown in New Orleans. On Thursday April 29th the moving trucks arrived at Bullock’s lavish $2.25 million, five-bedroom mansion in New Orleans and unpacked all of her belongings. Although Bullock and Louis were nowhere to be seen I am sure they aren’t too far behind!

I guess the least I can say is good for her for not putting up with it! Maybe she was the additional inspirational boost which finally slapped Elin Nordegren in the face to finally ask for her divorce as well!
Thanks for reading, until next time…

Beth’s Babble

Beginnings of Beth's Babble


Why Beth's Babble?
Hey everyone! My name is Beth Cefalu and this is Beth’s Babble. In other words, it’s my celebrity blog I created so I can share my own recaps of the celebrity world and all the gossip that goes along with it. Growing up all I knew was that whatever career I chose needed to be one that would keep me on my feet. A 9-5 desk job certainly wouldn’t be the ideal life for me; it would be more like HELL! I have always been an extremely outgoing, social, and driven student. After years of careful consideration *bam* it hit me! Broadcasting!

Why Broadcasting?
I believe that broadcast journalism is an unremarkable field that’s constantly changing and I would love to be apart of the forever-growing entity that is media. To be a TV broadcaster to me would be such an amazing career because I would have the power to converse to millions of people. Depending on which field I chose, I could communicate and stress important issues or even help inspire my audience on a daily basis. What more of a gregarious career could I choose than one where I would be required to be on my feet to keep up with the daily changes and curve balls that I am thriving for? Media is a means of communication to converse information and influence a wide range of people. It is the basis which links individuals or groups to their societies to make sense of everyday life. I really thought to myself and realized that by being a broadcaster I would be able to directly link myself to people all over the country and have a chance to make a difference.

Why Celebrity Gossip?

Now that I narrowed it down to a career I had but only one thing left! That is, my choice of broadcast genre. The choice of Celebrity Gossip was an almost impulse decision following broadcasting. There is nothing more fascinating to me than culture itself. As a student I can only afford so much traveling but whenever I did it was outside the US. All I wanted was to explore different cultures and civilizations other than the one I am accustomed to. My original major even before I chose broadcasting was Spanish because I truly enjoyed learning the culture in and out. To be able to follow and discuss not only the most successful people in the country but some of the most talented that are shaping our culture on a daily basis would be and incredible opportunity. Celebrities have such an amazing grasp over societies and regularly have a strong influence on anything they come into contact with. They live such fast paced lives that we cannot even attempt to dream about, but I am certainly up for the challenge of exploring all it has to offer. There is always something new occurring with constant drama to follow. My perfect career would be one where I would be constantly faced with new challenges everyday and Celebrity Gossip is certainly that! I am absolutely fascinated by this and all that celebrities stand for which is why I know that I would love and be most successful in this genre of broadcasting!
