Kanye West just can't help himself. He's got to rant about everything. Instead of being grateful for all that he has -- fame, riches, a career that he's passionate about, a woman that he apparently loves madly, a new baby on the way -- he's got to find something to gripe about. So he falls on that old celebrity bogeyman, the paparazzi. Kanye took to the stage at a recent gig and let rip on the paps and how they're making his life hell.

John Travolta has managed to stay out of the press lately. Remember when it seemed like every other week he was being accused of sexual harassment by some masseuse? But then he and wife Kelly Preston had a baby and all seemed to go back to normal (at least normal for them) for awhile. But along comes comedian Margaret Cho to stir the pot again! Margaret starred with Travolta in Face/Off and had some choice words to say about him during a recent comedy routine. And those words had to do with John Travolta's rumored sexuality. Primarily, that he's, ya know, GAY. I know, CRRRRRAZY.

Talk about hard to please! One would think that if your kid grew up to be a Grammy-nominated, chart-topping pop star, you'd be pretty happy, right? Not in Katy Perry's case. The singer's dad, pastor Keith Perry -- yup, the same guy who called her divorce from Russell Brand a "gift from God" -- apparently refers to his daughter in sermons as a "devil child." Gee thanks, Dad! In fact, it seems as if the preacher has made Katy's career the centerpiece of his, um, "teachings," as he regularly asks congregations to pray for her "healing." Oh, and it gets better! Keith Perry blasts his kid's multi-platinum success with the following overblown bit of self-righteousness: "I was at a concert of Katy’s where there were 20,000. I'm watching this generation and they were going at it. It almost looked like church. I stood there and wept and kept on weeping and weeping. They're loving and worshiping the wrong thing."

Long before there was Edward and Jacob, Brandon, Dylan, David, and Steve were the hottest young hunks around. Along with Brenda, Donna, Kelly, and Andrea, they ruled the halls of West Beverly High and the hearts of millions of tween and teen girls in the '90s. Now, some 20 years later, one of them wants to reclaim his spot atop the heartthrob throne -- by becoming a stripper. That's right. A Beverly Hills, 90210 alum is becoming a stripper. Dying to know who? Drumroll please ...

Whenever I see a headline about one of Michael Jackson's kids pop up, I can't help but wonder if the former King of Pop is rolling over in his grave. Say what you will about his bizarre appearance and childlike demeanor, he was a loving parent to them. And he was clear that his top priority was to ensure that -- unlike him -- they had a normal childhood. (Well, as normal as it could be with him as your dad.) He basically wanted them out of the spotlight. He wanted them to think and act like kids and never experience that soul-crushing public pressure he endured. Well, if Paris's latest interview is any indication, Michael's greatest hope for his children is dead and buried along with him.

Have you heard? Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry is moving away from baby daddy Jo Rivera, and she's taking son Isaac with her. Kail's husband, Javi Marroquin, has gotten his assignment from the Air Force, and the whole family is shipping out. Welcome to military life, where PCS (permanent change of station) happens every few years, and the whole family has to adjust.

That means that when there are stepkids involved, a military assignment often means separating a child from their biological parent, at least for the majority of the time. So why is poor Kailyn getting a ton of flak from the fans for splitting up Daddy and son? They're even calling her a bad mom!

Guess the apple doesn't fall far from this tree. Sean Penn is famous for his violent outbursts directed at the paparazzi, and now his son, Hopper Penn, has been caught on video not only physically bashing into an African American photographer, but calling him some really ugly names.

Hopper’s parents must be mortified -- I sure would be if I found out my kid used words like this for ANY reason, no matter how provoked. And this outburst didn't even look like it took much provocation!

In one of the most touching photos I've ever seen, a dying man reaches out to touch the grandchild he'll never meet outside of the womb. The dying man happens to be the father of Parenthood actor Dax Shepard, and the belly belongs to his wife, Kristen Bell, and their unborn child. The photo accompanies one of the most touching blog posts I've ever read -- the account of Dax's father's last days as he died of cancer.
