The Help had a solid mid-week launch, grossing $9.9 million on Wednesday and Thursday. The female-driven book adaptation's been well-positioned like previous August entries Julie & Julia and Eat Pray Love and has rated relatively well in Box Office Mojo's polling, nearly doubling The Secret Life of Bees with a 7.9 percent score for opening weekend. The picture, which is being distributed by Walt Disney Studios, did best with older women -- 60% of the audience was over 35 and 74% was female.
The studios behind the film were hoping that it would resonate strongly with African Americans and in the South, as it takes place in Jackson, Miss. Indeed, the local theater in Jackson, the Malco Grandview 17, sold the second-highest number of tickets to the film of any theater in the country this weekend.
"The Help" is already off to a better start than two other movies aimed at female audiences that opened on the same weekend in past years and ended up doing robust business. Last summer's "Eat Pray Love,' starring Julia Roberts and also based on a bestselling novel, opened to $23.1 million and ultimately grossed $204.6 million worldwide, while 2009's "Julie & Julia," in which Meryl Streep played Julia Child, debuted to $20 million and finished with $129.5 million in global ticket sales.

Another clown to add to the GOP Hopefuls! As another one bows out!
Rick Perry For President: Governor Announces Candidacy, Says It's 'Time To Get America Working Again'
Rick Perry For President: Governor Announces Candidacy, Says It's 'Time To Get America Working Again'
Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) officially jumped into the 2012 presidential race on Saturday, framing a promise to prioritize job creation as a cornerstone of his campaign.
"It is time to get America working again," he said, according to prepared remarks given to reporters beforehand. "That's why, with the support of my family, and an unwavering belief in the goodness of America, I declare to you today my candidacy for president of the United States."
Perry blamed President Obama for S&P's recent downgrade of the United States' AAA credit rating, and promised he would restore the country's good standing.
"In reality, this is just the most recent downgrade," said Perry. "The fact is for nearly three years, President Obama has been downgrading American jobs, downgrading our standing in the world, downgrading our financial stability, downgrading confidence and downgrading the hope of a better future for our children."

"The fact is for nearly three years, President Obama has been downgrading American jobs, downgrading our standing in the world, downgrading our financial stability, downgrading confidence and downgrading the hope of a better future for our children."
Perry made his announcement at the RedState Gathering, a conference held by the conservative blog RedState.com with 400 registered attendees. Other speakers at the event include South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R), Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) and Rep. Rob Woodall (R-Ga.).
Perry spoke to an overflow crowd, with people having to stand or even watch from a separate room. While waiting to get into the event, the hallway was so crowded and stuffy that one attendee even fainted, according to an event organizer.
Perry's candidacy doesn't come as much of a surprise. He has been meeting with wealthy donors already, getting the advice of former President George W. Bush and making appearances in the early primary states. His campaign also launched a Rick Perry for President website shortly before his speech.

Texas has created more jobs in the last year than any other state, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Often dubbed the "Texas Miracle," this feat has become a frequent talking point for Perry, and one that he again played up in his presidential announcement as testament to his focus on creating jobs.
"One in six work-eligible Americans cannot find a full-time job," said Perry. "That is not a recovery -- that is an economic disaster."
Still, Texas continues to struggle along with every other state. In June, Texas had an 8.2 percent unemployment rate, which is still significant though below the national average. Of all the jobs in Texas created last year, 37 percent paid at or below minimum wage -- and the state leads the nation in total minimum wage workers, according to a recent New York Times report.

Jennifer & Eric Williams Wedding Day

They have been going head to head in the media for the past year and more drama reveals itself each time. Although, they’re bickering now, that wasn’t always the case….well, I hope to think not.
I’ve got the original pictures from their wedding day, which was suppose to last happily ever after but we know how that turned out. SMH It was a lavish wedding at the Ocean Club on Paradise Island in the Bahamas created by wedding Diann Valentine.

Lindsay Lohan Bought A Bag Of White Powder
Everyone’s sh**ting blood right now over a video from X17 that shows Lindsay Lohan purchasing a baggy full of powder. X17 released the video and waited for the flood gates of crack-shenanigans to open. And open they did. The video posted below could show Lohan, in broad daylight, interacting with someone who could be her dealer, trying to be sly in the passing off of money for a sandwich bag full of white powder. Except, according to the expert in crack-shenanigans that is Lohan’s publicist, Steve Honig, X17 used smoke and mirrors to make Lohan look like a stupid crackhead doing a coke deal on the street in front of paparazzi.
‘[X17] knowingly and consciously making inferences about Lindsay that are completely untrue, and creating a fictitious story to get more people to visit their site… We were not given a chance to comment on this story before it went up, and no effort was made to gather the facts about what actually occurred… When I addressed this with the agency, they told me ‘We’re not the New York Times.’ They have made a horrific mistake; the worst part is, they know it but don’t care.’ Okay, I believe that last part as I’ve heard it so often. When an agency is like ‘We implied it, so?’ X17 updated their story to reflect Honig’s displeasure, ‘The bag contained crystals that had been purchased for Lindsay at a local shop.’ Radar gives a coke-free list of ingredients, ‘Sea jasper, a meteor, rose quartz and quartz, purchased by her pal from a store down the street.’

An insider recently told Us Weekly that Anthony isn't quite over his ex, 42, who signed on for another season of American Idol Wednesday.
They told the magazine: 'His mood shifts from blaming her to begging her to take him back to telling her she is destroying his life.
The insider also claimed that when it came to divorce negotiations, Anthony was 'being difficult on every little point...He wants to prolong things so she reconsiders.'
Earlier this month it emerged Marc had revealed his wife would yell at him for being late in an interview with O Magazine
He said: 'My mum always told me 95 per cent of success was partnering well.
'You know, we’re like anyone. We go to meetings during the day, then we like to come home and watch a movie with the kids.
'And I get yelled at when I’m running late. All normal stuff.'
Jennifer recently signed a money-spinning contract to continue her role as a judge on American Idol.
It has been reported that the singer will rake in a bumper pay packet of more than $20 million - up from the $12 million she'd previously earned.

Aretha Franklin Happy to Sing at MLK Memorial Dedication
*The late great Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King holds a special place in singing diva Aretha Franklin’s heart. In his early days, traveling from church to church, the leader would request the singer to minister through the spiritual lyrics of “Take My Hand, Precious Lord.”
So now, she’s returning to those memories as she was requested to sing on Aug. 28 at the memorial dedication at the National Mall in Washington D.C.

“I’m really looking forward to this moment. It’s going to be another great, great moment in American history, and in African-American history,” Franklin said in a phone interview Tuesday with The AP.
“It means as well, after so many years of traveling with him in the early ’60s at the advent of the civil rights movement, that again, many years later, I would perform in his honor and in tribute to him, and I’m really looking forward to that moment and singing one of his favorite songs, his most requested song by me,” she said.

Stacey Dash NOT FIRED....Yet!
Rumors are rampant this week that Stacey Dash got the axe from VH1's hit show "Single Ladies" already. Mainly because of her diva antics and fights with co-stars like LisaRaye McCoy.
But VH1 exclusively tells my sources that's not the case. At least not as of yet
Word on the internet streets this week is that Stacey Dash, who plays lead character Val on "Single Ladies," was told she's not coming back for Season 2. After all the catfights on set, and supposed demands and stank attitude Stacey's been putting out, it's not that hard to believe.

But VH1's press representative tells YBF, “No casting decisions have been made for season 2 of 'Single Ladies'."
So Stacey hasn't gotten that pink slip just yet. But that doesn't mean she won't....
Season 2 begins filming later this year and will air in 2012.

Star Jones Gets Wild at the Hamptons: Did She Meltdown?
*Star Jones has been going through a lot lately and it’s finally catching up with her it seems.
The former “The View” host nearly had a meltdown at the Bridgehampton Polo Club on Saturday when a security guard blocked her from stepping over a low fence.
She was joined by an entourage of about 10-12 people and sat in the Blue Star Jet VIP area. A source said Jones is typically treated well at the venue.
But when a handful of her guests and herself hopped over a low fence separating the VIP area and the rest of the field, she had a bit of a run-in with security.

But when a handful of her guests and herself hopped over a low fence separating the VIP area and the rest of the field, she had a bit of a run-in with security.
According to the New York Daily News, the guard finally caught on to the fact that the polo partyers were getting into the VIP area via the wrong entrance. He told Jones she was “not allowed to step over the fence” and would have to go around it. That’s when she became “snarky,” with the guard, telling him he couldn’t speak to her that way. “I’ll step over if I want to!” she said. More than one source heard Jones bellow, becoming “livid.”
The uncomfortable guard, who was in his mid-20s, “didn’t really know what to do,” says our initial source, but stood his ground. “Sorry ma’am,” the insider says he politely replied, with Jones forced to walk around to the proper entrance.

Sources say that’s not the only time she showed her true colors Saturday. Although she seemed in a good mood around friends and celebs like Beth Stern, with whom she happily posed for a photo, she “snubbed” less-well-known polo fanciers.
A spokesman for Star Jones said the Daily News story is “100% inaccurate” and that the television personality had “a pleasurable day.”
