Kanye West has wrote a song that he hopes Taylor Swift will perform as his apology
Kanye West is apologizing again to Taylor Swift, tweeting Saturday that the fallout from stealing her stage at the MTV Video Music Awards made him “George Bush overnight.”
The hip-hop hothead, who dropped his latest single “Devil in a New Dress” on Friday, blamed “a lil alcohol” and “bad timing” for sabotaging the 20-year-old country singer’s limelight moment.
“I’m sorry, Taylor,” West, 33, wrote on his Twitter account. “We’re both artists, and the media and managers are trying to get between us. She deserves an apology more than anyone.”
The Arizona Cardinals have released Matt Leinart parting ways with the former Heisman Trophy winner who was supposed to be the team’s franchise quarterback but couldn’t escape the backup role.
The team made the announcement on Saturday, shortly before the Cardinals had to reach their 53-man roster limit.
Arizona thought it had a steal when Leinart fell to the Cardinals at the No. 10 overall pick in 2006. He started 10 games as a rookie under coach Dennis Green then the first five the following season under new coach Ken Whisenhunt. Leinart then went down with a broken collar bone five games into the 2007 season and Kurt Warner took over.
Jerrod Niemann kicked off the first annual KMLE 8 Man Jam. He played One More Drinkin’ Song, What Do You Want and Lover Lover to 650 lucky KMLE winners.
What are you doing this Labor Day weekend? Trace Adkins and his family kicked it off by heading to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. One of the stops was of course feeding the giraffes on a Serengeti Safari experience. Hard to believe Trace found someone taller than he is! more
Robert Schimmel
Comedian Robert Schimmel died Friday, Sept. 3 from injuries sustained in a car accident the week before. He was 60 years old.
Last Thursday while traveling in Arizona, his 19-year-old daughter Aliyah swerved to avoid another accident in the lane she was driving in. The car she, Schimmel and his son were in flipped multiple times.
Schimmel’s death was confirmed by his brother, Jeff Schimmel, on Facebook Friday night via his status update: “ROBERT SCHIMMEL. Son, Brother, Father, Grandfather, Comedian, Generous Man. I have always loved you, admired you, and was proud to be your biggest fan. I will never forget a single moment. R.I.P.”
The comedian is best known for his appearances on The Howard Stern Show and was a writer for “In Living Color.”
In 2000, plans for a FOX sitcom were scrapped when Schimmel (who had already survived a heart attack in 1998) was diagnosed with Stage 3 Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. After beating cancer, he announced in January of this year that he had contracted cirrhosis from a Hepatitis C infection he had gotten from a blood transfusion.
He was currently on the transplant list waiting for a new liver.
Schimmel’s sister, the artist Sandhi Schimmel Gold who makes mosaic portraits out of recycled junk mail, blogged about her brother on Wednesday and posted a Twitpic toast to him Friday evening:

Retailers are offering juicy deals this Labor Day weekend in hopes of getting people to loosen up the tight grip on their cash. The hot summer means that many stores are running low on warm-weather clothes. As a result, retailers are featuring fall items early.

As we get ready for the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon on Sunday, Jerry Lewis has some not-so-kind words for Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. Lewis says that if he sees Lohan he’ll “smack her in the mouth” and will tell her “you deserve this and nothing else.” In an interview, Lewis said if Lohan doesn’t straighten up he’ll put her over his knee and spank her.
Why does it come as no surprise that when people do stupid things, bad things usually happen. This is another video sent to me by my son Nick. (He loves this stuff!) It’s what happens when you decide to jump onto a trampoline from the top of the house. A little misjudgement can hurt a lot. Don’t try this at home. Click MORE below to check it out.
