Artist Daniel Edwards is infamous for taking on pop culture in both creepy and provocative ways.  Witness:  Oprah Winfrey as a sarcophagus lid, Octomom in pink rubber, and Britney Spears giving birth.  His latest work?  Angelina Jolie, nude and breastfeeding twins Vivienne and Knox.

The sculpture is called Landmark for Breastfeeding and was inspired by the photos of Angelina from W Magazine last fall.  It doesn’t look like Angelina at all, honestly.  However, the fact that it was announced during World Breastfeeding Week was no accident:  Edwards “wanted to create a sculpture that encouraged mothers to nurse.”

(So was his Britney work supposed to encourage women to give birth on a bearskin rug?)

The bronze will be unveiled on September 11 at an Oklahoma art gallery.

What’s a porn star to do after he can’t get work anymore (even on reality shows)?   Ron Jeremy has a good idea.  He’s opening a swingers club later this month.

In Portland, OR, of all unlikely places. Is there a secret market for spouse-swapping in Portland?

Club Sesso will be located in downtown Portland.  If it’s successful, Jeremy plans to make his one club into a nationwide chain.  Uh… good luck?

Will it go faster than a speeding bullet?  The suit worn by Christopher Reeve in Superman III is going up for auction in Melbourne, Australia on May 24.

The suit is not quite a complete set - it is missing cape and boots.  However, it still sounds cool - it was used for the flying sequences.  Says Giles Moon of Bonhams and Goodman:

“It has reinforced slits in the side of the tunic where wires were rigged up for the flying scenes and the fabric is especially designed to be hard wearing and tough.”

The expected price is between $15,000 and $20,000.   Collector geeks, start counting your pennies!  Oh, and you can check out the complete auction catalogue here.

Nadya Suleman, aka Octomom, doesn’t even like being called that.  But she’s decided to copyright the moniker because she realized that she might make some money off of it.

People reports:

the unemployed mother of 14 realized it could be used to provide a source of revenue for her family. “She’s never warmed to it, but the idea would be for others to use it for licensing,” says [her attorney Jeff] Czech. “It’s just a smart thing to do.”

Evidently she’s not the first person with the idea.  When Czech filed the papers with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, he found that someone else had already tried to copyright the name.   Some people would say, oh, too bad… not Nadya!  Her attorney is fighting for her right to milk every last penny out of her eight babies, claiming that the original filers have “no legal rights to the word” and that only HIS client “has the rightful claim to the name ‘Octomom’.”

In other words, only Nadya has the right to earn any scratch off of it.  I see.  This woman is just plain sick.

Earlier this week, several sources reported that comedian Robin Williams is scheduled for heart surgery. Apparently while on tour in Florida, he went to the hospital “complaining of shortness of breath,” was transferred to the ICU, and eventually was diagnosed with a need for aortic heart valve replacement.

In typical fashion, his statement downplayed his condition:

“I’m so touched by everyone’s support and well wishes. This tour has been amazing fun and I can’t wait to get back out on the road after a little tune-up.”

Well, this particular surgery is a little more than a “tune up.”  It is needed because blood is not flowing through his heart correctly, and if not corrected, it can become quite serious.   Unfortunately, I personally know way more about this than I ever wanted to know, because my hubby had this same surgery last year!  While heart surgeons call this procedure fairly common (over 17,000 were performed in the U.S. in 2007 - former first lady Barbara Bush just had it last week, and I personally know two other people besides my sweetie who’ve had it), open heart surgery is still a big deal.   It means about a week in the hospital, and about 6 weeks recovery at home afterwards.  I would expect that Williams will not be back on the road for at least a couple more months.  If he is, I’d be really surprised.

I am sure my BSC colleagues join me in wishing him all the best with surgery and recovery!

Brazilian model Mariana Bridi da Costa, who got her feet and hands amputated last week, has died last night at 2.30 am. The 20 year-old had recently been a finalist in the Brazilian stage of the Miss World beauty pageant and participated in the 2007 Miss Bikini International contest.

What seemed like just a simple, common urinary infection rapidly spread causing septicemia (generalized infection) which led to the amputation of both her feet and hands.

Bridi fell ill in December and doctors originally diagnosed her with kidney stones, local media said. But her condition worsened and doctors then diagnosed a urinary tract infection that spread. She was hospitalized on Jan 3.

Mariana Bridi was breathing on her own and about to go into treatment when her condition quickly deteriorated overnight. We send our thought and prayers to Mariana’s family and friends who saw their loved one succumb to her tragic unexpected death.

Loony tunes singer Bjork has made a rather unlikely career move:  she’s turned venture capitalist.

The BJORK Fund will “invest in companies that are socially and environmentally responsible,” and is managed by Icelandic firm Audur Capital, who contributed an initial investment of $826,000.  They partnered with Bjork because she

“has become a spokeswoman for innovation, creative thinking and increased diversity in the Icelandic economy.”

Would you trust Bjork with your money?  The fund is seeking investors.  Find out more here.

A man wanting revenge after a nasty divorce dressed up like Santa, crashed his former in-laws Christmas party, then killed 8 people before killing himself hours later. Bruce Pardo is believed to have killed his ex-wife and her parents during the ‘Santa Massacre‘. His methodology was very different than what you would expect- he set the home ablaze using a bizarre homemade device that sprayed flammable liquid.

Pardo, 45, had no criminal record and no history of violence, according to police, but he was angry following last week’s settlement of his divorce after a marriage that lasted barely a year. “It was not an amicable divorce,” police Lt. Pat Buchanan said.

In past years, a neighbor dressed as Santa Claus and entertained guests. But the neighbor had moved away and there was no Santa — until Pardo arrived around 11:30 p.m.

The massacre began when an 8-year-old girl answered Pardo’s knock at the door. Pardo, carrying what appeared to be a large present, pulled out a handgun and shot her in the face, then began shooting indiscriminately as about 25 partygoers tried to flee, police said at a news conference.

A 16-year-old girl was shot in the back, and a 20-year-old woman broke her ankle when she escaped by jumping from a second-story window. Those two, and the 8-year-old, remained hospitalized Christmas Day. All were expected to recover. The gift-wrapped box Pardo was carrying actually contained a pressurized homemade device he used to spray a liquid that quickly sent the house up in flames. Police said Pardo had recently worked is the aerospace industry.

Our deepest thoughts and prayers go out to the poor family and friends whose lives will be forever changed by this evil act of revenge. God bless.

Katy Perry may have a song about experimenting with girls, but this may just mark her first foray into threesomes.  “I Kissed a Girl” is looking at its third week atop Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles chart, proving not-only is it one of the strongest records of the summer, but with the close company of Rihanna (with “Take a Bow” sitting pretty [pun intended] at #2) and Leona Lewis, females are dominating the pop world.

Lil’ Wayne’s “Lollipop” has slid from 2-3.

Rising up the charts this week are Coldplay with “Viva La Vida” (moving from 6-5), Chris Brown with “Forever” (moving from 8-6), and Miley Cyrus‘ “7 Things” (ascending 16-10).

With the pregnant man only four weeks away from delivering their baby girl, he has decided to talk about the last minute things going on in their lives.

“I feel fantastic,” [Thomas Beatie] said. “I cannot wait to see my baby’s face.”

Thomas—who changed sex ten years ago but kept his ovaries and womb so he could have children—told us: “I feel on top of the world. I’m 36 weeks now and almost due but I feel fantastic. Every day Nancy and I think about how we just cannot wait to hold our daughter for the first time, to finally get to touch her and see her face. We have her nursery ready and her diapers are lined up in her bedroom. Everything is ready to go. We have even picked a name which we both love—although we’re waiting until she is born before we tell anyone. All the people who really know us and love us, our friends and family, have been incredibly supportive.

“So much so we might even have more children. We will just see what the experience is like with our daughter’s arrival first and then give it some thought.”

You need to go to News Of The World to check out the exclusive photo shoot they had with Thomas, plus see the personal photo album they had. Thomas’ wife used to be a body builder. She looked amazing! And see Thomas shaving while resting his arm on his big baby bump. It’s a little weird, but I guess if it works for them, that’s what matters!
