Midweek entertainment report 12/09/09

The Guidos are causing trouble for MTV, SYTYCD produces a head scratcher, the AJC is officially up the butt of Tyler Perry (Why? we don't know) and Tom produces YET ANOTHER good looking kid...

Ladies and gentlemen, the RETURN of the midweek entertainment report!

(AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!)

TMZ reported yesterday that two sponsors have pulled advertizing from MTV's The Jersey Shore after just ONE two-hour episode. Dominos and American Family Insurance have said No Mas (or what ever no more is in Italian) after watching the self-proclaimed guidos and guidettes make a mockery of all things Italian-American. This by the way is DOMINOS, which serves Italian food, pulling the plug on some of its own, and American Family, apparently NOT Italian-American Family. I thought that companies would be lining UP to advertise on the FUNNIEST SHOW ON TV. Apparently not? I guess that is the situation. SORRY MIKE! Maybe they can get Pac-Sun Tanning to fill in. Or Johnsonville Brats. Or Aussie hair gel. Dapper Dan, maybe? Or maybe the pizza place where Vinny no doubt works can step up. Guido illustrated?

I haven't been watching So You Think You Can Dance this fall mainly because of my radio show being on Tuesdays, but I tuned in last night and was surprised as to a certain development. Apparently one of the female dancers hurt herself and could not dance, but instead of getting DQ-ed, she was allowed to stay and potentially receive votes. She had her own number for folks to call in and DON'T think that she wasn't potentially in the catbird seat right there. Instead of doing a really crappy job on what could have been foxtrot or russian dancing, she gets the sympathy vote from America. If I was one of the other chicks, I would have been furious. If I went home after dancing my butt off and she got to stay and go to the final without dancing, I'd protest the CRAP out of the situation (no, not Mike).

ajc.com was reporting earlier that Tyler Perry's mother died. Why? Why are we reporting this in the entertainment section? I can understand the obits page, but the entertainment section? Really? Was she Madea? NO, that was HIM in drag. I guess maybe she was the inspiration for Madea but do we really need to know that she died? Does this mean he'll only produce 7 movies the next two weeks instead of the usual 29? The ajc guys need to get their lips off of his bum and give him some privacy at this time.

Finally, Tom Brady and Gisele Bunchden had a baby boy yesterday. I am sure he is going to grow up and be incredibly attractive, probably moreso than Brady's first son, with Bridget Moynahan. The only way Brady has a better looking kid is if he has a baby with Kate Beckinsale. WOW. He is setting his kid up to be the BIGGEST player EVER. Son of Super Bowl winner and Vicky's secret model....WOW. He is going to get so much play it is UNREAL. More than Brody Jenner. I know MTV is ALREADY trying to sign him to a show in 18 years.

That's it. Have a great rest of the week.

I can't read this column. I'm just going to drink water and eat ham.

Dominos is insane. There are tons of eyes on that crap. The trainwreck aspect of that show is sheer brilliance. Whoever casted that show should get a HUGE raise.
