Kim Kardashian And Lindsay Lohan Get Invited To The White House

In case there is any further doubt that the American government has its head completely up its — well, you get the idea — Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan were invited to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Kardashian was invited by Fox News network, no less, while Greta Van Susteren and her husband, John Coale, invited Lohan.

Kardashian is no stranger to the gala. She attended in 2010 as Van Susteren’s guest. Her plus-one for the evening will be her mom and manager, Kris Jenner. Lohan’s publicist told “The Reliable Source” at The Washington Post that his client will be taking her defense attorney, Shawn Holley.

Seriously, this country is looking more and more like a real-life version of Idiocracy everyday.

Dick Clark Passes Away At 82

A Hollywood icon has passed away.

It is a sad day as Dick Clark has passed away at the age of 82, confirms ABC News.

Dick died of a massive heart attack after having an amazing recovery from a stroke in 2004.

Even after his stroke, Dick continued to take part in Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve as Ryan Seacrest took over as host. Dick never missed a kiss from his wife at midnight.

After starting his career in the mailroom of an upstate New York radio station, Dick rose through the ranks and in 1952 became a radio DJ in Philadelphia, which led to his big career break: Hosting American Bandstand, a teen dance show that went national just five years later. The rest is history!

RIP Dick! Seacrest will never live up to Mr. Clark, but I guess somebody midget has to take his place.

Kim and Kanye Go Public

Now that Kanye West has realized that he’s actually dating Kim Kardashian a fifteen-year-old famewhore, he’s watching his words a little more closely.

“…of course there are a lot of media inaccuracies surrounding this past couple of weeks, especially the ‘She’s my Beyonce’ quote. I would never compare anyone to my friend’s wife,” West tells Us Weekly exclusively.

(After a source told Us that the rapper “thinks [Kim] is his Beyonce,” a subsequent Saturday Night Live sketch April 14 riffed off that quote, putting the words directly in West’s mouth.)

“Come on now, that doesn’t even sound like me,” says West, who is a longtime pal and collaborator of Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z. “If I don’t say something in a rap or on Twitter, it’s not true,” the “Otis” rapper tells Us.

Umm…yeah, comparing Kim to Beyonce is like comparing Courtney Love with SARS to Kate Beckinsale – not even in the same planet. And yes Kanye, that does sound like you because you will say anything just to get on TV or have your name in the news for 5 seconds. So actually, it makes perfect sense that you’re dating Miss “I’ll do anything for publicity” Kardashian.

What Stars Made Before Their Big Break

Celebrities are grossly overpaid for what they do, but many start out with quite humble beginnings:

To wit: Seacrest earned just $10,800 as a radio host; Hamm cashed in $14,350 waiting tables; and Depp made $13,500 selling pens over the telephone. Compare that to today’s dizzying numbers: Seacrest at $15 million (“American Idol”), Hamm at $2.1 million (“Mad Men”), and Depp reportedly at a staggering $350 million (okay, for the entire five-part “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, but still).

$2.1 mil is legit, but $350 mil is insane. If you’re looking to make yourself feel even worse, check out Parade’s what people earn issue for more celeb salaries.

Lady Gaga And Nicki Minaj Are TOTALLY DIFFERENT!

Some people have been *gasp* comparing Lady Gaga to Nicki Minaj, and Nicki doesn’t like this.

“Offends me, no. Irks me, yes,” Minaj said when ABC’s Juju Chang asked if the Lady Gaga comparisons do, indeed, offend the similarly flamboyant hip-hop star. “We are in completely different lanes.”

“First of all,” the “Super Bass” artist said defiantly, “I’m a rapper. I’m from southside Jamaica, Queens. I could say some really crazy lyrics right now, but I won’t. Why don’t I turn the cameras around and ask you?”

So, Chang, not wanting to point out that Lady Gaga’s a native New Yorker, too, mentioned that they both wear wigs.

“Wigs?” Minaj retorted. “Every female in this game—every female in this game—wears wigs.”

Um…the clothes, then?

“Over-the-top costumes?” she replied skeptically, making a buzzer sound. “Try again!”

Despite her aversion to being compared to Gaga, however, Minaj had kind things to say about her fellow star.

“Gaga’s a fantastic artist, you know, she paved her way,” she added. “She’s opened her own lane. But I think that I have my own lane, and we never cross. Ever. So, you know, I really don’t get the comparison anymore. Our music doesn’t sound the same. Our stage presence is not the same. I just can’t see the similarities.”

Well, I don’t see too many similarities except they’re both from New York, but VERY different worlds within NYC. For one, Gaga has talent and Nicki Minaj is a hack. I guess they both dress like they’re insane though! You know, it’s all about the music.
