Published by skeptic

Sharon Osbourne has hit out at Amanda Holden after the presenter appeared to call her “bitter and pathetic” over comments she made about Simon Cowell. The 71-year-old music manager and wife of former Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne said Cowell “doesn’t know how to keep friends” in a conversation with their fellow former X Factor judge Louis Walsh when the pair appeared together on Celebrity Big Brother. In an article in the Daily Mail, Holden, 53, who is on the judging panel of Britain’s Got Talent alongside Cowell, said: “I hated seeing certain people in a reality show dissing Simon – he’s the person who’s given them all the chances, given them a lot of money and a lifestyle they probably wouldn’t have had. “It’s bitter and pathetic. It was like Cinderella with her two sisters in the background – just stabby, stabby, stabby.” Image: Simon Cowell and Amanda Holden.

Annoyed, that God was willing to spare Israel’s hated enemy, Jonah fled to Tarshish instead. But through a series of events, including being swallowed by a large fish or whale, Jonah was convinced to go to Nineveh. Jonah is also mentioned in 2 Kings 14:25 as a prophet of God during the reigns of King Jeroboam of Israel and Amaziah of Judah and because of this, we can accurately date his ministry to around 785 BCE. This corresponds to the rise of Assyria as the dominant nation in the region. Though we tend to focus on the events surrounding Jonah’s arrival, things were also happening in Nineveh, preparing them for the prophet’s message. In Genesis, we are told that God set the stars in the heavens to …

A tale of two child stars: The tragedy and triumph of Amanda Bynes and Lindsay Lohan

A tale of two child stars: The tragedy and triumph of Amanda Bynes and Lindsay Lohan

Published by skeptic

Child stardom can be as fleeting as its young stars’ rapid, meteoric rise.  But the price paid for childhood fame sometimes results in long-lasting emotional damage stemming from unspeakable traumatic experiences. Just look at current Netflix rom-com star Lindsay Lohan, a symbol of resilience from the child actor’s plight. Lohan survived the Disney machine – ever since achieving acclaim in the “The Parent Trap” remake – and even transitioned to respectable teen stardom in films like “Freaky Friday” and “Mean Girls.” Unfortunately, she then became party girl tabloid fodder alongside starlets like Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. A string of arrests and DUIs, in addition to public battles with her parents over control of her finances only continued this impression. In adulthood she lost a series of roles, was panned for numerous performances and eventually entered rehab. Nevertheless, more than a decade after her very public downward spiral, Lohan has rebounded personally and professionally. She is now married and gave birth to her first child. Her comeback has made way for the actress to become a part …
