KANYE SAYS: GET CLOSER TO GOD AND YOU’LL GET RICH

Apparently the only person that could convince Kanye West to take his meds is God – or Jesus Christ himself, so he continues to spiral out of control. It might be time for Pastor Joel Osteen to start backing away from Kanye, although their working together has been mutually beneficial. It looks good for an evangelical preacher to embrace a person of color, and Kanye has learned a lot about using religion as a tax exemption. Kanye continues to insist that he is “the greatest artist that God ever created” and claims that his wealth is the result of becoming closer to God. Kanye’s latest stunts- peeing on his Grammy, ranting about record company contracts etc, can only make us (and Kim) wonder what Kanye – and God- have in store for us next.

GOLDEN GLOBES HOST RICKY GERVAIS: THANK GOD AT YOUR OWN RISK

Ricky Gervais, the rascal who made last year’s Golden Globes watchable, is returning this weekend and he explained some of his wisecracks in Esquire. Ricky closed the show saying “Thank you to God that I’m an atheist!” He clarified that it wasn’t just a matter of declaring his own beliefs, but of pointing out how narcissistic celebrities are in the spotlight. He was criticizing all those people who thank God because they won an award. Ricky figures that considering all the famine and wars going on in the world that it’s incredibly arrogant and egocentric for winners to think God went out of the way to help THEM. If indeed God exists, he has more important things to do. Let’s hope the God-thankers take the HINT. We’re looking forward to the 2012 Globes.
