Amy Winehouse’s Dad Thinks Her Knockers Are Great

Mitch Winehouse thinks Amy’s rack was worth the rumoured $US56,000 cost of silicone. Obama Girl is mauled by a light fixture at that one ubiquitous press junket in Jamaica. Welcome to today’s gossip!

• This is disturbing, but maybe explains things: When a TV reporter asked Mitch Winehouse how daughter Amy was doing, he replied “Fantastic, fantastic. Her boobs are great as well.” To his credit, Mitch backtracked, “I shouldn’t have said that should I?” But then rambled on, “I didn’t have to pay for the boobs,” and continued pondered where on earth she got the money for them, because he says his daughter is broke and begs him for money all the time. That is, unless she is still loaded and shelled out the reported $US56K for that glorious rack by herself, which OK says is also a possibility. [OK]
• When the deejay at 1Oak announced “23 bottles of Cristal for Lindsay Lohan’s 23rd birthday”, LiLo reportedly “look startled”. Not because she is a recovering alcohol with a DUI under her belt, but because it totally wasn’t her birthday, her birthday is on July 2nd! [Page 6]
• John Travolta’s Bahamanian legal battle against men he says tried to extort $US25 million from him after son Jett’s death ended in mistrial. The reason for the mistrial was as tabloid as the trial itself: the judge thought the jury pool was leaking information. They figured it out when a member of Bahamas’ Parliament said he had inside knowledge that defendant Pleasant Bridgewater—a Bahamanian politician with a farcically adorable name—would be acquitted.

• There’s a mistake on Jacko’s will—or is the whole thing a forgery? Michael Jackson was reportedly in New York on July 7, 2002, the day his will was signed — but now his lawyer says they just wrote down the wrong date, which raises yet another troubling question: Why, when you are guiding the most famous man on the planet through the most important legal documents of his life, would you not bother to make sure he has the date right?

• Trent Reznor, Roseanne Cash, Billy Bragg, and a bunch of other musicians are demanding federal documents explaining how their music was used during torture sessions at Gitmo. This is because they are dutifully liberal and highly enlightened, civilised folks who are only somewhat curious to know whether al Qaeda operatives prefer Nine Inch Nails or country standards.

li>Nicole Richie and Samantha Ronson are besties, and Lindsay Lohan is jealous. Nicole is taking the high road, though, and just “wants a better life” for Lindsay, thereby employing the deepest and most cutting diss in the Mean Girl manual: Magnanimous pity. [Perez Hilton]
