Perez, Perez, Perez!
Obsess much, darling? Yes, Perez Hilton has posted not once - but TWICE this week already (and it’s only Monday!) about Rachael Ray and the rumors (that he gleefully helped start and spread!) of her impending divorce. The Queen of Mean has even pointed to the New York Post who is also spitting out ‘details’ and ‘confirmations’ that things are rocky, without a Ray of Hope to be seen! Says the NYP:
A source close to the couple told Page Six, “Her mother is in town from Lake George to help Rachael find an apartment.” Rumors of their split have been circulating ever since the National Enquirer reported last November that Cusimano paid Jeaninne Walz up to $500 a session to spit on him and rub her feet on his face in 2000, before he met Ray. Rumors are also circulating that Rachael “has been flirting” with Colby Donaldson, the ex-”Survivor” cast member who joined the “Rachael Ray” show in February, on and off the set.
First off - who WOULDN’T flirt with Colby Donaldson? Raaaaaaawr! (And I say that as a Survivor Addict, too!) The NYP does continue to quote the reply by Rachael’s rep as well, who of course denies the accusations and rumors. Now, as Perez says, reps are paid to lie - so he continues to believe that things are still going south.
Secondly - Really, who believes the National Enquirer? Do people SERIOUSLY really and truly believe that stuff? Tsk, tsk, tsk.
But it looks like Rachael Ray has come forward to Entertainment Tonight to finally refute the rumors herself:
“It’s ridiculous,” RACHAEL RAY tells ET of the reports she and husband JOHN CUSIMANO are splitting.
She explains that she first heard about the rumors when a friend text messaged her there were reports on the Internet that said she and John were ending their 2 1/2 year marriage.
“We were planning our anniversary when we got that text message,” she reveals. “We are extremely happy — couldn’t be happier.”
Rachael, who just returned from a trip in the Hamptons with John, says it boggles her mind where gossip like that begins. “I don’t know where something that outlandish comes from,” she says.
And it’s certainly not something that is bogging her and John down. “[It's] not hurtful at all,” she admits of the reports. “It’s hysterical!”
Well, WE know where such outlandish reports come from!
But there you have it! Of course, one could point out that ET is essentially a television tabloid, but what’re ya gonna do? The same thing the rest of us are - wait and see!

Dear Mr. Perez:
You seem to take such “glee” at starting gossip, rumors or whatever regarding celebrities and the like, how does getting your fat ass sued into bankruptcy going to help your business? I mean, you seem to pull this on those who either will not, or cannot afford to fight back, why don’t you do something as equally stupid with Tom Cruise?

I find it hilarious that people have nothing better to do with their lives them gossip, start rumors or cause drama. Nothing is going on in his life so he has to gossip about other people’s lives. Well fyi, whether she’s getting a divorce or not, that is HER personal life. But it’s okay. It’s idiots like Perez that give celebs the laugh they need. Keep it up, Im sure people just love reading their lives through the words of a liar, gossiper or ignorant ass. It makes their day. Because atleast they’re on someone’s mind that day. Perez is just another gossiper who has to do what he does just to be known. How lame.
