*Charles Barkley has no limits, especially with these darned Weight Watchers commercials. The man wore a dress, wig and heels once, to in turn get battered with a load of gay jokes and criticisms.

*In a move that goes against standard practice in the entertainment industry, singer Patti Austin has no problem speaking openly about her decision to undergo gastric bypass surgery in 2005 and gain control of her health. “That was something that I was in denial about,” Austin tells EURweb exclusively regarding the detrimental effects of being [...]
