ILLI MO BITZ



Emmy Award nominated talk show shost Jimmy Kimmel had St Louis native and Emmy Award nominee Jon Hamm,\ on the show this week and made him do a taste test comparison between an Imo’s pizza and a homemade one. 

As expected, Hamm chose the St. Louis establishment’s product as being better.

Kimmel’s wife, who  is from St. Louis,  said he can’t stand some of the city’s claim-to-fame foods.

“I get a lot of abuse from people in St. Louis whenever I make fun of their terrible, terrible pizza place,” he said on the show .
Kimmel also said he thought toasted ravioli was "disgusting also."


In other Hamm news, the rumors that he was dying of throat cancer are not true.

Despite rumors floating around after news broke that the Mad Men actor, 42, would undergo throat surgery next week to remove a polyp, he told the Associated Press Thursday that he's "fine."

"It's a simple injury," he said in an interview with AP, sounding raspy. "Something that develops on your vocal cord from overuse because I talk a lot.

"Other than that, believe it or not, I'm healthy as a horse. Hoarse, get it?" he joked.

His rep confirmed to USA TODAY Tuesday that Hamm will have the "routine outpatient procedure."

Hamm  also dispelled the rumors on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday to dispel rumors. "It sounds worse than it is, although it doesn't sound as bad as how the National Enquirer reported it, which was that I was coughing up blood and probably have cancer.

"That's good to put that out there. Thanks, guys. Thanks a lot," he said jokingly.









 It's hard to believe, but TV veteran  and Oak Park, Ill native

 (same birthplace of Betty White) Bob Newhart has just snagged his very first Emmy.

Newhart, 84, has been nominated seven times throughout 

his 52-year career, and on last Sunday night at the 

Primetime Emmys telecast he was acknowledged of his win

 that had taken place a week prior   at the Primetime 

Creative Arts Emmys.

He was named Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his work on CBS' "The Big Bang Theory." He appeared as Professor Proton, the former host of a kids' science show, on an episode in May.

"They wrote an awful good script," Newhart said of his "Big 

Bang Theory" colleagues. "They gave me a lot of hanging

curveballs and I kept swinging at them."

 Newhart humbly told reporters backstage that he "was 

totally unprepared for that," according to Entertainment Weekly.

Given the breadth and impact of his career -- from "The Bob

Newhart Show" of the early '60s and '70s to "Newhart" in the

 '80s and the short-lived "Bob" in the '90s -- it's curious how

Newhart managed to go this long without a prior win.

"The best answer to that really is whenever I was nominated, there were better people in the category than me," the star told Entertainment Weekly. "That's the truth. The best person wins. That's the way it is."

"The great thing about (the honor) is that you're voted on by 

your peers, and that's very important," Newhart told CNN.

As for what's next, Newhart is working on reprising his "Big Bang Theory" role this season and, if he can help it, a number of gigs after that.

"I'm trying to drop dead on a soundstage," the 84-year-old told CNN. "That's really my ultimate goal -- to just keel over in the middle of a show."




Emmy Award winning actor and Chicago native Andre 

Braugher (PICTURED RIGHT) co-stars with former SNL cast 

member Andy Samberg  in Fox’s new cop comedy,“Brooklyn

 Nine-Nine,” that airs Tuesday nights.

But in order to keep some element of surprise for viewers, there's one part of the show that we didn't discuss before it aired: The unexpected twist that Andre Braugher's police captain character is gay.

"I think it's wonderful that it's part of a complex person, as opposed to the defining characteristic, because when it is the defining characteristic it's always gonna bump up, inevitably, against good taste and wind up creating an offensive stereotype," Braugher said.
"I will have a husband like everyone else has a husband or a wife, but it's going to be entirely appropriate, and that's of overwhelming importance to me.
The throwback feel of “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” is built into the premise. It belongs to a narrow genre, the squad room sitcom, whose most notable example remains the 1970s classic “Barney Miller.” And the relationship between Mr. 
Samberg’s Detective Jake Peralta and Mr. Braugher’s Capt. Ray Holt stems from an even older and more celebrated 
show: they’re a modern, manscaped version of Hawkeye Pierce and Colonel Potter in “M*A*S*H.”




Rap superstar and St Joseph, Mo, born Eminem 

revealed his  Marshall Mathers 2 LP cover art recently. Prior to the reveal he  took to Twitter to propose a contest to his followers on the location of his house in Detroit's 8 Mile where he was raised after moving from Missouri .

The winner on Twitter proceeded to tweet the picture to

 his followers, resulting in a retweet from Eminem, therefore revealing the cover to everyone else!

The cover shows Em's childhood home, which was also 

featured on the first Marshall Mathers LP.

Marshall Mathers LP 2 contains Eminem's hit single

 "Berzerk" which has a pretty angry music video and even stirred up some drama.


The former home  is also available to buy which can be  owned for a mere $1.
The Detroit house, at 19946 Dresden St., is no longer owned by Mathers or anyone in his family: It’s state property, which means it’s up for auction rather than for sale, and the minimum bid for the home, which is being auctioned by the Michigan Land Bank, is a mere buck.
The property, which measures 776 square feet and contains two bedrooms and one bathroom, has been prominently featured on two of Eminem’s album covers: First, in 2000, with The Marshall Mathers LP; and then this year, on Eminem’s seventh studio album,The Marshall Mathers LP 2.







St Louis reared fashion designer Paulie Gibson was featured in last week's episode of Americas Next Top Model 2.0 where the male and female contestants' challenge was to book a maximum of two go sees at Style Fashion Week in Los Angeles and had a chance to compete for a place for designer Gibson.

 spread for  Essence Eye Candy. Above is one of the pics 

from his photo shoot. The spread will be online within weeks. 





There was a special Thursday nite football game that

 had taken place at Edward Jones Dome between the St 

Louis Rams and the San Francisco 49ners (PICTURED

favor. The Rams are now 1-3.

All fans in attendance will receive a white #RamsPrimetime T-shirt presented by Charter, YP and Barnes-Jewish Hospital & Washington University Orthopedics. In addition, the Rams will be wearing all white uniforms for the game
 For prep, a portion of Broadway in St Louis was closed hours prior and after the St. Louis Rams game Thursday night at the Edward Jones Dome in downtown St. Louis for fans' safety.

Why did that senator in D.C. stage that so-called filibuster for

 hours end reciting Dr Seuss and  quoting Ashton Kutcher?

  Why did it take so long for that black Florida woman who

 got sentenced 20 years under the Stand Your Ground law  to get another trial? Why  was certain TV legends not given a 

special tribute at the Emmys (e.g. Larry Hagman)? Why are 

Rams fans turning their back on the Rams and the season is 

just four weeks old? Why is Evelyn Lozado getting her own 

reality show? Why is Lamar Odom blaming his father for his

 drug addiction? And why has twerking become a dance trend?
