Michael Jackson looks for Maryland home
The Washington Post reported this today:
On Eastern Shore Sometimes the unlikeliest rumors do turn out to be true. Days after the first vague news reports emerged from Maryland’s Eastern Shore of a real-estate-hunting Michael Jackson, the singer’s reps finally broke their silence to confirm in part — and deny in others — the story that has had the rural peninsula buzzing.
Jackson’s D.C.-based publicist, Raymone Bain, called us late Monday and said that yes, indeed, the self-proclaimed King of Pop really did visit the Eastern Shore last week “for about 24 hours,” and that he really did scout out some summer houses.
Of course, the year I leave Maryland is the year that Michael Jackson decides to move there!
By now, I’m sure a lot of you know I’m a big Michael Jackson fan. After all, I was born in the 1980s and that was back when he was the undisputed King of Pop.
Regardless of weather you love him or hate him, you have to admit that it’d be pretty cool to see him somewhere, to be witness to the Jackson frenzy that surrounds him, to see what his face really looks like in person.
Damn, if only I lived in Maryland again!

Big Brother 8
Trashwire will be covering CBS’ Big Brother 8 all summer on our Big Brother 8 Blog, a special section of the site dedicated to the ultimate summer guilty pleasure.
You can check out the new section at trashwire.com/bb8
Here is a description of the new section:
Years ago, CBS debuted a new reality series called Big Brother. Back then, the cast was older, the show was more interactive, high-speed internet access was rare, and the live-feeds were tiny, grainy images of a chicken coop for most of the day.
Since then, the show has evolved into a summer guilty pleasure with eye-candy abound. Though there have been new twists in the game (the Power of Veto), new architecture in the house (the addition of a second story and HoH suite) and new houseguests to compete (hotties like Kaysar from BB6 and BB7), the show remains the most real of reality tv.
Unlike most reality shows, which are completely at the mercy of their editors, Big Brother offers something different: a live internet feed from inside the house. This allows viewers to watch all the plotting, strategizing, and back-stabbing that takes place during an average day in the house as it’s happening. These live feeds are what make the show so much better than other “reality” programs like Survivor or The Real World.
Big Brother also has one of the most dedicated fan communities on the web. BB fans are up at all house, watching the feeds, taking screen caps, summarizing any updates, and discussing their favorite alliances. While it may not exactly be Monday Night Football, fans of this show are more into it than any die-hard arm-chair-quarterback.
I’ve been a fan of Big Brother since the first season and I only missed one episode due to a huge storm that passed through my neighborhood and knocked out the power.
Last year, I started a blog for Big Brother All-Stars, my dream season, featuring some of my favorite players from seasons past. That blog became pretty popular, and I’ve decided to go for it again this year with Big Brother 8.
This blog will feature updates, commentary, links and even a few screencaps or YouTube videos from this season and maybe even from past seasons too.
Keep checking back here to see what’s cookin’ in the BB house!

We’ll still bring you new content about all things entertainment and pop culture! If you’re a fan of BB, now you have even more to enjoy on Trashwire.com.
