Midweek Entertaiment report 12/16/09

Cousin Eddie goes on the lam, Elin is leaving the Player of the DECADE, Glee gets recognized by the Golden Globes, and an Atlanta radio guy plans a move to tv.

Ladies and gentlemen, THE MIDWEEK ENTERTAINMENT REPORT!

Apparently Cousin Eddie aka Randy Quaid and his wife failed to show up to a Santa Barbara court on a felony charge of defrauding an innkeeper on a bill of more than $10,000. Apparently they are now being called "felony fugitives" by the DA of Santa Barbara. Quaid's lawyer said that the couple has paid the bill after being arrested on Sept 24 in West Texas for using the invalid credit card at the San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito. And by skipping out on the court date, they miss out on the $40,000 bail. That is not good, considering I hear Eddie is holding out for a management position. Out of work for seven years and now you miss out on $40,000? Ouch.

Elin Woods aka Mrs. Tiger will be leaving Tiger according to a People Magazine source. The source told the magazine, "She's made up her mind. There's nothing to think about: he's never going to change." Good for her. If she had stayed with him, it would CLEARLY only be for the money and she'd never be able to look herself in the mirror. As for Tiger, just give her $75M and you never have to worry about her again. Just don't get married, stay a stag and smash as many women as you'd like. Dude, you're worth one BILLION dollars and you are the most dominant athlete in the world. (The AP just voted him athlete of the decade) You really cannot lose in this situation if you're Tiger and Elin managed to turn a "failed marriage" into at least $75M. Good for both of them.

How about Glee getting four Golden Globes nominations, huh? Glee is up for best comedy/musical TV show, two newcomers and best supporting actress for Sue aka Jane Lynch. And if you think Glee is getting some love from the Golden Globes, just wait for the Fletcher Globes.........

Finally, Bert from Q99.7's The Bert Show has been approached about going on a reality TV show called Boys Club ATL (thankfully it was not called Boys Club Hotlanta, because he would have boycotted.) He had an on-air debate (according to the ajc) about whether or not to do it and now he tells the ajc that he is 40-50% leaning yes. Ummm, the show hasn't been picked up yet and if it does, are we talking Peachtree TV or Bravo here? No one is really going to watch. Sorry Bert. PS how is Ernie? And in the same ajc.com article, apparently the people from The Real Housewives of Atlanta approached the woman from the Frank and Wanda show to be on it. Would she be the 9th or the 14th housewife? I have NEVER seen some many people grasping at a VERY SMALL slice of TV "fame" before. This is quite sad. and again, some of these folks aren't married. To ME, that should take away the houseWIFE title, which should DQ you from consideration, but oh well. Seriously folks. Please stop trying to be on this show. It is embarrassing to the city.

That's it, enjoy the rest of the week.
