‘Inglourious Basterds‘ actor Brad Pitt covers the latest issue of Wired Magazine (August 2009). In the creative ‘Ask a Basterd’ interview, Brad Pitt talks about relevant issues concerning the use of technology like internet dating, Twitter exposure and using the phone while on the toilet.

Here are some highlights from Brad Pitt’s Wired interview:

Brad on Ashton Kutcher posting a photo of wife Demi Moore’s butt on twitter: “Don’t take a picture of your wife’s butt. That’s silly,” he tells the magazine. “Take pictures of other people’s wives’ butts.”

Brad on internet dating: “Everyone lies online,” he says. “In fact, readers expect you to lie. If you don’t, they’ll think you make less than you actually do. So the only way to tell the truth is to lie.”

Brad on using the phone while on the toilet: “No, you can’t talk on the phone!” Pitt declares. “Do you want the guy next to you to hear your entire conversation?

Brad on texting being his favorite form of phone communication: “Just be sure you don’t hit the wrong button and end up putting a photo of your junk on Twitter,” he says. “Trust me, you don’t want those followers.”

A business woman named Pamela Long Wiggins, who owns several properties in three states, a Rolls Royce and a yacht, was the eighth suspect charged with the murder of the Florida couple, Byrd Billings and Melanie Billings (photos here). Byrd and Melanie Billings, were shot to death July 9 in what police have called a well-organized, military style operation in which robbery was the primary motive.

Pamela has different aliases, including Pamela Wiggins, Pamela Malden, Pamela Long and Pamela Laverne Long Coco and is swimming in unexplained money, according to her husband Jimmy Malden Jr., who has been trying to divorce her for years.

The 47 year-old real estate agent was charged with felony grand theft in 1988. That charge was dropped to a misdemeanor, to which she pleaded guilty. Pamela is a close friend to one of the murder suspects, Leonard Patrick Gonzalez Jr., who had military training and believed to be a key player in the double murder.

“Keeping Up With The Kardashians” step-father Bruce Jenner decided to have a second facelift to hopefully correct the horrible first one he had twenty five years ago. Kim Kardashian revealed the plastic surgery was a birthday gift for Bruce, who has been suffering media bullying for years.

Bruce said, “If you Google my name, the worst plastic surgeries of all time, or whatever it is… They’ve compared me to Michael Jackson.”

“I had it done and not even my close friends knew I had it done,” he revealed. “I mean that’s how good of a job they [did].”

We can see in these photos there is a small difference. I’m not sure if he looks better than before (I think he just looks plastic all the time!) but if Bruce is feeling more confident after going under the knife then it was worth it.

A very sick heartless 17 year-old teenage girl, Cheyenne Cherry, and a 14 year-old friend broke in and trashed the apartment of Valerie Hernandez, her former roommate, destroying furniture, stealing DVD’s and food.

But before leaving, Cheyenne put a super adorable kitty named Tiger Lily into a 500-degree oven, basically baking the poor pet. She and her accomplice then fled the apartment because they didn’t want to hear the dying cat’s cries or desperate scratching at the oven door.

Cheyenne, who was charged with animal cruelty and attempted burglary, will be put behind bars for a year and promised not to keep a pet for the next three years. The other girl, who Cheyenne claims was the one to put the cat in the oven, will face trial in Family Court because of her age.

When she exited the courtroom on Wednesday, Cheyenne extended both her middle fingers and kissed them as she passed a row of animal rights activists. Cherry grinned widely, stuck out her tongue and responded with “It’s dead, b*tch!”. I can only say this teenager is a real monster!!

Never-before-seen footage of Michael Jackson’s infamous Pepsi Commercial, when his hair caught on fire, was released. Michael was performing on stage at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles back in 1984 in front of 3000 fans when pyrotechnics exploded earlier than planned.

Michael continued to dance for a few seconds before he ran off the stage and surrounded by security who tried to extinguish the fire. The King Of Pop suffered third degree burns on his scalp and body that were responsible for Michael’s addiction to painkillers and plastic surgery.

Exclusive photos of Michael Jackson’s legs that were taken in 2002 were analyzed by specialists for ABC News. The photos below show a serious wound, which seems like necrosis, surrounded by unusual needle punctures on Michael’s right leg. It is also clear from the depigmentation of Michael’s skin that he did indeed suffer from Vitiligo.

“On the photographs of Michael Jackson, it looks like there was necrosis on his lower leg where there might have been fluid that went into his lower leg,” Dr. Debra Jaliman, a leading dermatologist and spokeswoman for the American Academy of Dermatology, told ABC News.

“It looks like there are multiple puncture points from IV placement. If, in fact, he had an IV here, and the IV fluid, which may have been acidic fluid, went into his skin, it might may have, in fact, destroyed the skin,” she said. “That’s all dead skin that would then make an ulceration underneath that skin.”

“If you look at his lower leg you can see puncture points here, so it looks like there was a needle entry here, possibly a needle entry here on his leg,” she told ABC News.

“In 22 years of training, I’ve never seen an IV placed in the legs. You would put, you know, IVs in hands, arms, but oftentimes in my training when I have dealt with people who didn’t have veins anymore in their hands or arms, you look for veins that you can use and sometimes you have to look in other areas of the body,” Jaliman said.

A close source to the King of Pop, Marc Shaffel said Michael was dangerously addicted to Demerol, Oxycontin and a dangerous cocktail of several other opioid drugs. A Demerol overdose was initially suspected as the cause of death.

“Jon & Kate Plus 8” star Jon Gosselin and his new naughty girlfriend Hailey Glassman are engaged to be married, according to InTouch. Jon is completely in love with his 22 year-old girl toy that he doesn’t want to waste any time.

Jon bought a $180,000 engagement ring with black diamonds designed by Edouard Nahum and got down on one knee to pop the question during their romantic vacation in St. Tropez (photos here). They met with clothing designer Christian Audigier and he helped them celebrate their engagement.

A source says, “They started dating two months ago and they both just knew the other was the one instantly.”

“They all went out to the V.I.P Room nightclub in St. Tropez after dinner,” says another source close to the group. “Hailey was flashing her ring around and they were kissing and hugging.”

As I mentioned before Hailey is not the type of girl you want near your eight kids. Hailey was arrested for possession of marijuana a couple years ago (mugshot here) and is well known for her wild party lifestyle (photos here!).

Actress Jada Pinkett Smith brags about her and Will Smith’s incredible sex life. Jada and Will have been married for almost twelve years and have two children together, Jaden and Willow, besides taking care of Trey, Will’s son from a previous marriage.

Jada said, “When you have three kids, you’ve got to take your opportunities when they come. In a limo, on the way to the Academy Awards this year, Will started looking at me in this way that drives me wild. We started kissing passionately, and the next thing I knew, well, let’s just say we missed the red carpet and I ended up with almost no makeup on.”

TMI!! We don’t even really want to know about Jada and Will’s sex life. But when Jada offers to openly speak about such intimate details, we have to wonder if they are about to get a divorce… or it’s another way to try to dismiss the rumors both Jada and Will have homosexual tendencies!?!
