Zsa Zsa Gabor, the Hungarian actress whose self-parodying glamour and revolving-door marriages to millionaires put a luster of American celebrity on a long but only modestly successful career in movies and television, died on Sunday in Los Angeles. She was 99. The cause was heart failure, her longtime publicist Edward Lozzi said. Married at least eight times, calling everyone “Dahlink,” flaunting a diamonds-and-furs lifestyle and abetted by gossip columnists and tabloid headline writers, Ms. Gabor played the coifed platinum femme fatale in plunging necklines in dozens of film and television roles, many of them cameos as herself. Her career, which...

Zsa Zsa Gabor, a Hollywood icon who personified the joy of glorious, unapologetic celebrity, reportedly died Sunday from a heart attack. She was 99. The Hungarian actress and socialite was pronounced dead after being rushed to a Los Angeles hospital, TMZ reports. She survived a series of health problems over the last decade, including an auto accident, a hip replacement and a stroke, and had been on life support the past five years. …

The Republican National Convention is over, but that didnÂ’t stop the media from going nuts over the plagiarism flap that marred the first night of events. Melania Trump delivered what was a very good speech on the first night of the convention. Yet, there were a couple paragraphs that looked and sounded very familiar. Why? It was because those passages were lifted from Michelle ObamaÂ’s 2008 address to the Democratic National Convention. Team Trump had tripped up, so the media blood sports began. As Guy noted, to make matters worse, it appears as if the original author of MichelleÂ’s speech...

Who said it: Melania Trump or Twilight Sparkle from "My Little Pony"? "Melania Trump said, 'the strength of your dreams and willingness to work for them.' Twilight Sparkle from 'My Little Pony' said, 'This is your dream. Anything you can do in your dreams, you can do now,' " Spicer said.

It was inevitable that we would reach this day ever since the Huffington Post ridiculously announced last July that it would cover Donald Trump only in their Entertainment section. Immediately after that foolish announcement, entertainment did come in the way of the Huffington Post being widely mocked for their laughable policy. And ever since that announcement, it was obvious to many keen observers that they would eventually have to reverse their dopey decision. That reversal occurred yesterday with this "note" from HuffPo founder Arianna Huffington:

Zsa Zsa Gabor has slipped into a coma after being rushed to an L.A. hospital yesterday for emergency stomach surgery ... this according to her husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt. The Prince tells us the 94-year-old star has been unresponsive since 2AM this morning.

When Zsa Zsa Gabor's only child Francesa Hilton was told about plans for her mother to become a new mom, she said, "That's just weird." Gabor, who just turned 94 in February, has recently struggled through a string of health problems. The legendary Hollywood celeb hasn't walked since a car accident in 2002. She's well past her prime. It seems that Gabor's 67-year-old, fame-seeking husband Frederic Prinz von Anhalt is driving this crazy plan. He hopes that a child can help continue the Gabor legacy.

Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband Frederick Prinz von Anhalt has told a German newspaper that he wants to plastinate his wife's body when she dies and then put her on show. The 93-year-old actress has been in and out of hospital for the past few weeks and is said to be in very ill health. Frederic says he wants to preserve his wife's body so her beauty will last forever. My wife has always dreamt that her beauty would be immortal. 'I would like to show the plastinated body of Zsa Zsa Gabor in the context of a scene in...

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Zsa Zsa Gabor's publicist says the 93-year-old actress is hospitalized in critical condition after surgery to replace her right hip. Publicist John Blanchette says he spoke to Gabor's husband on Thursday and was told she was not doing well in the wake of her weekend surgery.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Prince Frederic von Anhalt, a flamboyant socialite and eighth husband of Zsa Zsa Gabor, has officially entered the California governor's race. Von Anhalt's political platform includes legalizing marijuana and prostitution, lifting the import ban on Cuban cigars then taxing them all. The 65-year-old flew to Sacramento Wednesday from his Los Angeles home to file his candidate papers. Von Anhalt says he was motivated to run by watching the mistakes of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who he says has let Californians down.

Prince Frederic von Anhalt Says He'll File Papers With California's Secretary of StateSACRAMENTO, Calif. -- In another celebrity turn in California politics, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, the husband of actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, announced Tuesday that he's running for governor. Anhalt said in a news release that he'll file papers with California's Secretary of State, announcing his intention to run as a Liberal Independent in the California race. "We've had Irish-American, Armenian-American, and Austrian-American governors and now it's time for a German-American to lead the state," Anhalt said in a statement. Among his platforms, Anhalt said he wants to legalize...

Fraudulent investor Bernie Madoff may have made his worst enemy of all when he stiffed screen legend Zsa Zsa Gabor in his $50 billion 'Ponzi' scam. The National Enquirer is reporting in its new issue that the 91 year-old Gabor and her husband, 65 year-old Prince Frederic Von Anhalt, have lost a fortune. "We're mad as hell and we want our money back!" said Prince Frederic. "We might be forced to sell our Bel-Air home, cars, artwork and even our jewelry because of this sick man." He added: "This scam artist should be dragged through the streets and flogged!" Zsa...

Two Hollywood actors who dined with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in early 2001 at actress Candice Bergen's home confirmed reports that he told the assembled group he did not vote for George W. Bush in the 2000 election, but McCain denied the claim at a news conference. In separate phone interviews, Bradley Whitford and Richard Schiff -- both of whom starred in television's "The West Wing" -- said late Thursday night that the senator made the remarks after he spoke at length about his reservations about Bush becoming president. Liberal blogger Arianna Huffington first wrote about the incident Monday, asserting...

Arianna Huffington's statement that John McCain did not vote for Bush in 2000 has kicked up a fuss, with McCain putting out a statement denying her account. "It's not true," McCain spokesperson Tucker Bounds, told the Washington Post, adding, "I ask you to consider the source." Huffington replied, "By all means!" Huffington is standing by her story, which she says she kept confidential for nearly eight years. At a reading and book-signing event Monday night at Washington's Politics & Prose Bookstore, Huffington told her audience that Senator McCain and his wife, Cindy, "divulged" their voting decision to her at a...

After sitting on the story for nearly eight years, Arianna Huffington said this afternoon that John McCain told her soon after the 2000 election that he did not vote for George W. Bush. The private conversation took place at a Los Angeles dinner party, she said, and the senator's wife Cindy said she didn't vote for Bush either. The liberal blogger, who posted the account on her website today, said McCain's declaration came after a tirade in which he criticized Bush's tactics against him in their battle for the GOP nomination.

Neither did Glenn, neither did I. (I didn’t vote.) Granted, she’s a buffoon and a completely unreliable witness, but … do we maybe want to force ourselves to believe this one?"At a dinner party in Los Angeles not long after the 2000 election, I was talking to a man and his wife, both prominent Republicans. The conversation soon turned to the new president. “I didn’t vote for George Bush” the man confessed. “I didn’t either,” his wife added. Their names: John and Cindy McCain (Cindy told me she had cast a write-in vote for her husband). "The fact that this...

<p>Arianna Huffington claims that she was banished from NBC News shows because her new book, "Right is Wrong," blasted "Meet the Press" anchor Tim Russert.</p> <p>Aside from being the anchor, Russert is also the managing editor of the show, the Washington Bureau Chief of NBC News and a senior vice president of NBC News.</p>

For decades, Huffington has been a political gadfly and a perennial pundit on news shows. Now she's editor in chief of the popular news and opinion Web site The Huffington Post. Huffington's politics lean left, but that wasn't the case in the mid-'90s when she was a friend to Newt Gingrich and a card-carrying member of the Republican Party.

Over the last seven years, the lunatic fringe in control of the Republican Party -- the people who believe in torture but don't believe in evolution -- have hijacked our democracy, aided and abetted by the news media. The heart of the problem is not the bias of Fox News or the blowhards on AM talk radio but a mainstream media that has completely internalized how the right frames all political debate. The right-wing message has become a part of the news media's DNA. The latest confirmation came with this week's announcement that Tony Snow, formerly a host at Fox...
