Hollywood has sunk to an all-time low what with the entertainment news overflowing in random ‘Balloon Boy’ topics.

                The story is that there was a giant helium balloon (made by the Heene family) floating away supposedly with a little boy inside. The little boy’s parents called the police in panic for help to get the balloon down. It all turned out to be a crazy hoax, which now will end in felony charges of negligence and abuse.

                The funny part about the story of ‘Balloon Boy’ is that the family appeared on the ABC reality show “Wife Swap,” so it’s an obvious cry out for instant stardom. It seems that the father, Richard Heene is the master planner of the hoax, judging by his multiple attempts at fame in his younger days of attending acting school in Hollywood.

                Speaking of multiple attempts at fame, Rosie O’Donnell’s relationship is on the rocks. The 47-year-old star is apparently getting dangerously close to a break-up with her longtime partner, 42-year-old Kelli Carpenter. The two married in San Francisco in 2004 and have made a family with four children, Parker 14, Chelsea 12, Blake 9, and Vivienne, 6.

                Hopefully they’ll work things out for the sake of the family. A family should always come first.

                Even though Khloe Kardashian and her new hubby Lamar Odom walked down the aisle over a month ago, they are just now coming to an agreement for the pre-nup. And it has to be the most ridiculous pre-nuptial I have ever seen.

                Khloe made it clear that she wants a flat sum of approximately $500,000 for each year they are married, plus $25,000 a month in general financial support. She also requested a new home and a brand new luxury vehicle at the end of every lease cycle. In addition to $5,000 a month for shopping, $1,000 for beauty care and courtside tickets to every Lakers game for her entire Kardashian Klan.

                Apparently, Khloe doesn’t kid around when it comes to her standards of luxury living. I mean, I thought she had her own money from the two reality hit shows on “E!,” plus her radio show in Miami, and the successful clothing store she owns with her sisters. So, tell me why in the world she needs all this extra money and luxurious pampering kicked in from Lamar Odom?

                Good luck with that Lamar… I smell a divorce coming in the future ‘Pop Addict’s’ to come.
