Rachel Ray

DELISH! Rachel Ray TV does not allow for anorexia in the workplace claims a new lawsuit being filed by Aaron Ferguson.

As former accountant for the Rachel Ray tv show, Ferguson is seeking $1 million against the brodcaster of the Rachel Ray show (Ray herself is not named as a defendant) claiming he was the victim of eating disorder discrminiation in the workplace.

Reportedly “Aaron Ferguson said in papers filed in state Supreme Court in Manhattan that he has suffered from anorexia for about six years. He claimed his supervisor repeatedly exhibited “hostile behavior” and made “vile,” discriminatory and hurtful comments. The comments included, “Anorexics are sick in the head,” and, “Anorexics should not be able to work,” his court papers say.”

Ferguson claims he worked for the show by CBS in July 2007 but was forced out by October of that year. The lawsuit is against CBS Corp., CBSTD Inc. and three show employees. Ray is not a defendant. CBS would not comment. Ferguson’s lawyer said that “the things that were said in front of my client were hurtful, and once they knew he had a problem with it they should have stopped.”

Venus Williams won today her fifth Wimbledon women’s singles title, defeating sister Serena Williams (pictured above). Venus beat Serena 7-5, 6-4.

Venus Williams is now set to become one of the most winning female tennis players to ever hit that court, trailing Martina Navratilova with nine wins, Steffi Graf with seven, and Billie Jean King with six.

“I have to first of all say great match to Serena,” Venus said. “I can’t believe that it’s five but when you’re in the final against Serena Williams, five seems too far away from that first point. She played so awesome. It was really a task to beat her. It’s so rewarding to perform here. Every time I come back I know I have the chance to play well and make history. My first job is big sister and I take that very seriously.”

“I’m so happy that at least one of us was able to win,” Serena said. “She’s played great this year. We’re just glad to be in the finals again.”

Congrats to Venus!

Amy Winehouse

VIDEO: Watch a new Rock in Rio performance by Amy Winehouse today. Winehouse performed while sipping from a glass of wine at the festival in Madrid tonight. But her excellent performance today was not the trainwreck Rock in Rio appearance of earlier this year.

Winehouse delivered a strong concert. But when finished, Wino did not stay for the encore. Rather she flew out on a helicopter!

Also hitting the stage for the concert this weekend: Shakira, The Police, Bob Dylan, Lenny Kravitz, Alejandro Sanz and Franz Ferdinand.

Torregiani The Bachelor?

Posted on July 4th, 2008 in The Bachelor, JT Torregiani, Paula Abdul by lalate

ABC will have ketchup on its face if it casts the super strange looking JT Torregiani as its next “The Bachelor”. Torregiani, Paula Abdul’s ex bf and owner of “Ketchup”, has eyes almost as strange as reports that he could star the ABC reality show.

How quickly will viewers flip the channel off of ABC once they see his eyes? 20 seconds?

J.T. Torregiani broke up with the poster child of normality Adbul last month after six months of dating. He’s 33 and heads the Dolce Group that owns Ketchup and other nightspots here in LA.

People claims that Torregiani “was asked [to be the ‘Bachelor’] a couple of years ago, but he got together with Paula so he didn’t do it.” And the NY Post describes him as a “hunk”. (Insert laughter here.)

No confirmation from either side about the casting claim.

Olsen had to cut her interview short with deejay Darren McKee. Olsen is reportedly set to perform tonight on stage in Coloardo Springs and Saturday as planned. The comedy venue where Olsen is set to perform is now speaking out about the radio station’s actions.

Says the venue’s representative: “I’ve never heard of this radio station and I’ve lived in Colorado Springs my whole life. This is this station’s 15 minutes of fame, and they’re taking advantage of it.”

BREAKING: Cynthia Rodriguez, A-Rod’s wife, believes Madonna had an affair with her husband. Despite that, Cynthia says she still loves her husband.Alex Rodriguez’s wife allegedly confessed her belief of a Madonna Rodriquez affair to her friend.

Says one magazine: ” “I believe he was having an affair with Madonna,” she told a friend, who spoke anonymously for fear of angering A-Rod. “She said she found a letter where Alex told Madonna: ‘You are my true soulmate.’”…. Despite the sleepless nights and jags of tears, Cynthia Rodriguez is telling friends, “I still love my husband.” “

Madonna’s reps have said “no divorce” is happening between her and Guy Ritchie and “no affair” happened between A-Rod and Madonna who have the same manager.

Reportedly, the baseball player angered his wife by showing up 10 minutes after she gave birth to their child Ella Alexander and then only spent one day with her before returning to the Yankees.

Earlier this week, Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie, allegedly on the outs, made a convenient public appearance at a New York restaurant holding hands for the camera. Ritchie is also reported to be prepping a major 50th birthday party for Madonna in England.

Posted on July 4th, 2008 in Ashley Kaufmann, Kristi Kaufmann, Michael Lohan, Lindsay Lohan by lalate

NEW PHOTOS! New pictures this week of the alleged illegitimate child of Michael Lohan, Ashley Kaufmann. Reports now say that Ashley, the alleged sister of Lindsay Lohan and Ali Lohan, has been approached by music executives to record an album, with one exec saying “Ashley has more talent than Lindsay or Ali.”

OH MY!

A Lohan source says “Ashley’s singing ability just proves that the family talent comes from Michael (Lohan), not Dina Lohan.” Last Monday, Michael Lohan took a DNA test to determine paternity. Results will take two weeks.

Kaufmann is 13 years old. Her mother Kristi Kaufmann got pregnant in 1994. She claims it was from Michael Lohan during a short lived affair.

Among the many comments by Michael Lohan reportedly include “I haven’t spoken to Lindsay or my other kids about it yet. When I get home to New York, I’ll discuss it with my kids. I love them. I’m sorry for them finding out like this.”

Do you think she looks like Michael Lohan? Check out the pictures below!
