Megan Fox is The Dumbest Celebrity Ever

World's sexiest Megan Fox was named 'The Dumbest Celebrity Ever' by a British tabloid, just hours after being voted as 'World’s Sexiest Woman' by FHM Magazine.

Megan drew flak for her call to legalize cannabis and her obsession with her looks.

"The American has amazed fans with her ignorance as she travels the world promoting her movies with red-carpet comments and magazine interviews," wrote Daily Mail in a report counting down the 23-year-old's gaffes.

During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Fox had questioned her own mental health saying, "I think that I’m so psychotic and so mentally ill that if I could tap into that I could do something really interesting."

The stunner had also recently criticized fellow actress Scarlett Johannson for her intellectual attempts.

"I don’t want to have to be like a Scarlett Johansson, I don’t want to have to go on talk shows and pull out every single SAT word I’ve ever learned to prove like, 'Take me seriously, I am intelligent, I can speak'." Megan had said.

"Agimat: Ang Mga Alamat ni Ramon Revilla Sr." Soon on ABS-CBN

For two years, ABS-CBN has been negotiating with the Revilla clan to buy the rights to remake four epic "Agimat" movies—namely Hulihin si Tiagong Akyat (1973), Tonyong Bayawak (1979), Ang Mahiwagang Daigdig ni Elyas Paniki (1989), and Pepeng Agimat (1973).

This 2009, the project will finally be shown in television as the Kapamilya Network's upcoming primetime show called Agimat: Ang Mga Alamat ni Ramon Revilla Sr.

ABS-CBN's Creative Unit Head Rondel Lindayag said that adapting the movies of the senior Revilla for the small screen is an honor for the network. It also serves as their tribute to the legendary action star who contributed a lot to the Philippine cinema.

In preparation for their role, the three young male stars will soon visit Ramon Revilla Sr. to talk to him personally about the project.

Agimat: Ang Mga Alamat ni Ramon Revilla Sr. will priemere soon on ABS-CBN Primetime Bida.

Perez Hilton Punching Incident with Black Eyed Peas

Famous celebrity blogger Perez Hilton was reportedly had a heated argument with Fergie and Will.i.am of Black Eyed Famous which eventually turned into a worst-punching incident with the group's tour manager Liborio "Polo" Molina outside a bar in Toronto, Canada.


The incident happened on early Monday of June 22 at Cobra Toronto Night Club during the after-party of the MuchMusic Video Awards 2009.

After the much publicized incident, Will.i.am immediately issued an official statement condemning violence and insinuating the right for respect. Read below:

I will not continue to comment specifically on the incident that happened in Toronto last weekend… But I would hate for my silence to be misconstrued… I do not condone harassment or violence of any kind…

No one deserves physical abuse…
And no one deserves verbal abuse…
No one deserves that…

Everyone needs to be respected…
And no ones name should be slandered in the name of hate and disrespect…
And fyi…”not every black man is a thug”…

As far as character allegations made against myself,
The members of the Black Eyed Peas,
And members of our management…
I believe that the truth will speak for itself once the details of the events are fully presented.

Hateful slurs…
Racial or gay should not be used as verbal weapons to provoke violence…

Let us all learn from the events that happened in Toronto…
That situation has already taken valuable time, energy,
And attention away from more important,
And in some cases, devastating issues happening in our world.
Thank you…

Will.i.am

And Perez Hilton has this video below to clear his name on the incident and to shed light on what really happened during that night:



And others have spoken too:

Rashad Robinson, Senior Director of Media Programs at GLAAD (The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) : "These are vulgar anti-gay slurs that feed a climate of hatred and intolerance toward our community. For someone in our own community to use it to attack another person by saying that it is, quote, ‘The worst possible thing that thug would ever want to hear,’ is incredibly dangerous. It legitimizes use of a slur that is often linked to violence against our community. And it sends a message that it is OK to attempt to dehumanize people by exploiting anti-gay attitudes. We have reached out to Hilton and asked him to apologize for promoting this anti-gay slur and we would ask media outlets to avoid repetition of the slur in their coverage of this story."

Pop culture chronicler Rich Juzwiak: "I just kind of want to throw up my hands (or in my hands) and call out this character, this persona, this online half-person for what it is: bad for the Internet, bad for gay people, bad for the world. I can’t help but feel like everything would be better off without him… I racked my brain and I’ve still come up with absolutely nothing positive or pro-social that he has brought to the world."

27-year-old American Idol champ Kelly Clarkson: "I gotta be honest with you, he’s gonna get a lot of flowers. I’m not talking about Perez, the manager. (laughs) I do not think violence is the answer but what did you expect? You can’t talk that much crap about people without being able to take something. I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already! (laughs) I hear that he’s mean to celebrities’ kids. You’re hurtful to children, no one’s going to pity you. I don’t understand! I don’t think anyone should be punched but I see why someone would want to do it."

Fergie’s husband, Josh Duhamel: "When you get rich saying hateful things sometimes you ask for it. It’s an unfortunate incident and I hope it goes away."

The View host Whoopi Goldberg: "When you get clocked by the pen, it’s never fun, and some people, you don’t know how they’re going to respond to you, and you might just want to take that into consideration."

Marian Rivera Covers YES! Magazine's 100 Most Beautiful Stars Issue

First, there was Judy Ann Santos. Then followed by KC Concepcion last year. This year, it is Marian Rivera's turn to cover YES! Magazine's 100 Most Beautiful Stars issue.

Yes! Magazine started to compile their own list of Philippine showbiz' "100 Beautiful Stars". And just like in their 2007 and 2008 edition, the list does not necessarily count to 100 stars as family, couple or a group will just count as one (1). The stars are also divided into various categories.

This year, the categories include Couples, Glam Dads, Passing the Torch, The Venerables, Faces to Watch, Primetime Ladies, Leading Men, Princesses of the Cinema, The New Prince, Not Your Average Girls, Boys Next Door, Hunks and Babes, Multi-Talented, Beautiful at Any Age, and The Adorables.

Missing this year’s list are Ruffa and Richard Gutierrez (according to Jo-Ann Maglipon, Yes! Editor-in-Chief, it has nothing to do with the pending case filed by Richard against her and PEP website). Gretchen Barretto was also not in the list.
