Morning Musume singer Mari Yaguchi did an interview with Famitsu. She learned something very exciting — about herself, of course. In a recent blog update, Yaguchi writes that she discovered during the Famitsu interview that there have been comments that she totally looks like a character in Final Fantasy XIII. (We're thinking more pigtailed Oerba Dia Vanille and less magnificent Sazh Katzroy — call it a hunch!) And Yaguchan's reaction? Cu-cu-cu-cute... Th-th-th-thin.. (-.-;) Even during my heyday, I wasn't that slender... But, if I looked like that, I'd be really happy... Everyone, be sure you make your opinion known (^w^) Well, whaddaya think? For those not familiar with Yaguchi's more saccharine work, please watch this clip — preferably with the volume off. 喋る日☆ [矢口真里オフィシャルブログ 初心者です。 via チラシの裏でゲーム鈍報]

The paramedic charged with trying to extort John Travolta over the death of his son was threatening to reveal a medical document irrelevant to 16-year-old Jett's death, according to Bahamian officials. Tarino Lightbourn has been in custody since his arrest on Jan. 23, and is charged with conspiracy to commit extortion and attempted extortion. His attorney is charged with two counts of extortion. Lightbourn attempted to sell a one-page document that Travolta signed when Lightbourn was treating Jett, Bahamian police told People. Travolta's son died of a seizure this month at his family's vacation home on Grand Bahama. The document, called a "refusal to transport," did not apply in the Travolta case, Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police Marvin Dames said. "It did not apply because he was very ill, and so, the only alternative would be to take him to the hospital. Refusal to transport documents are for cases involving minor injuries, Dames said. "If your injuries are minor and you don't want to be transported, the ambulance driver would produce that form. It waives responsibility on the part of the hospital." Dames said the Travoltas did everything they could to save their son. "We were satisfied from all our investigations that the Travolta family and those who rendered aid ... did all that was humanly possible to revive Jett," Dames says. "There's no evidence to support that there was any effort to avoid medical treatment," he adds. "Lightbourn said that himself in several interviews." Dames told People the extortion attempt occurred nearly two weeks ago, when Lightbourn's attorney, former Bahamian Sen. Pleasant Bridgewater, called a Travolta attorney and said Lightbourn wanted to sell the document. Travolta then complained to Bahamian police. "The complaint states the request was for $25 million," Dames says. "At the time, she represented the young man. She would have made the request." Bridgewater has said her actions were misinterpreted and that she is innocent of any wrongdoing. Dames said investigators haven't located the document, and can't verify its authenticity.

Jessica Simpson sang These Boots Were Made For Walking, even though This Mouth Was Made For Gorging is probably more accurate. Or, you know, These Thighs Were Made For Crushing Cars. Or something. Basically, Jessica Simpson has got a little bit fat, and everyone's talking about it. Thanks to a couple of unflattering pictures taken last weekend, people now refer to Jessica Simpson as Heifer-ca Simpson, Jessica Not-Thinson or Jessica Simpsonofabitchyougotfat. Or maybe we made those up. We're not telling. And now Kim Kardashian has said that Jessica Simpson looks 'hot'. That's because she's insulated by fat, you insensitive bitch.

Don't disturb Alec, he's having a moment. It's sad, but true, the news we reported on Tuesday seems to have been a smidge too early. Meryl Streep is not appearing on 30 Rock, despite the begging, pleading, and wooing of one Mr. Alec Baldwin. So what happened? Alec's publicist is saying that the rumors of him plying Streep with praise and insisting on her guesting are "not true." How cold, and just like Baldwin to deny a lady after getting her all worked up over the promise of stardom and... well, I guess Meryl didn't need help with that. But still, we're bummed that the grand dame of American cinema won't be showing up on our favorite slice on insane NBC humor. I personally pictured an episode where she'd be caught in a torrid love triangle with Tracey Morgan and Jack McBrayer. We can see the montage now: Meryl ice skating with Tracey in the Plaza, skipping down the halls with Jack in matching vests, and all of it shot in soft focus to "More Than a Feelin'" by Boston. Sigh. You're a cruel, cruel man, Baldwin.
