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
"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.

first runner up Sesamir who will be featured in a 30 page
spread for Essence Eye Candy. Above is one of the pics
from his photo shoot. The spread will be online within weeks.

favor. The Rams are now 1-3.

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?
