On July 9, the E! Online Message Board will be closed permanently. It only took over half a decade, but the E! Network finally decided being a safe haven for the mentally unstable while trying to promote Ted Casablanca and his empty words of The Awful Truth was not a good business model.
Skewering The Skeptics will remain exactly as it is, with any dead links in the sidebar removed after the board's shut down.
So skeptics, you were so right about so many things, you all are being ushered right out of the building just before demolition. Your door prize? Exactly what you deserve - absolutely nothing! Enjoy!
For the fans, an Urban family update, coming shortly!

Nicole Kidman's Birth To Score Latest Quaker Oats Commercial: "Wake Up, America"
Thanks to the Film Experience Blog for the heads up and the Chicago Sun-Times for the article which allowed us to find the commercial!
Alexandre Desplat's score for 2004's Birth is now featured in Quaker Oats' new "Wake Up America" Campaign. Looks like E! online skeptic Mimosa will have to ban another product from her home!
Quaker hopes to warm you up to waking up
August 30, 2010
LEWIS LAZARE llazare@suntimes.com
It's a new morning for Quaker Oats, one of the most iconic of all food brands. And it's the kind of morning a lot of people, we suspect, are going to warm to in a big way. Starting on Wednesday, Chicago-based Quaker Oats and its ad agency Juniper Park/ Toronto, are unveiling a massive new ad campaign that suggests hot oatmeal will make breakfast amazing. And even more important, help make the rest of the morning amazing as well.
"Wake Up, America," the launch 60-second anthem spot, is one of the niftiest pieces of TV commercial work we've seen in a while. From the first shot of a tea kettle rattling on the stove to the final frame with the tagline -- "Does Your Breakfast Make You Amazing?" -- "Wake Up, America" is an exquisitely rendered ode to the glories of the morning and, by extension, the breakfast that should kick off every amazing morning.
This debut spot is a lush montage of shots of sunrises and of people as they begin their daily routines. We see a young figure skater heading into the rink for morning practice. An early bird officer worker surveys the empty desks around him. A welder is perched high above the city on the metal beam of a new skyscraper under construction as he chows down on oatmeal from a Thermos while the day dawns magnificently around him. A runner stretches against the backdrop of a blinding sun on the horizon.
As the visuals unfold, a voiceover announcer offers up some intelligent ad copy about the significance of the morning in both specific and nonspecific terms. He tells us the morning is when we charge into the future. Morning is also when we blasted off to the moon for the first time and scaled the highest peak. In other words, mornings are a time for getting important things done.
As engaging as the imagery and the thought-provoking copy are, what really makes "Wake Up, America" more than just good is its musical underscoring. We have long contended -- and will continue to, well, forever -- that what really makes a TV spot special and memorable is a great musical track. And boy does "Wake Up, America" have one. While every aspect of this launch Quaker Oats spot is designed to evoke a tingling sense of anticipation and possibility, the commercial would not work as well as it does without the pitch-perfect, symphonic-sounding, subtly melodic piece of music that pulls together everything.
In addition to the anthem launch spot, Quaker is unveiling six other new spots. One zeroes in on that welder seen in the launch spot and employs a bit of wicked wit when it tells us Rome wasn't built in a day or on a coffee and danish. Another adorable effort pegs a tousle-haired youngster as the new chef in the kitchen as we watch him expertly mix Quaker Oats instant oatmeal.
Aside from TV executions and new print work that supports the amazing breakfast theme, Quaker Oats is making much of a new Facebook component that will allow people to share their thoughts about how to be more amazing and possibly win a coaching session with Bob Harper from "The Biggest Loser" reality TV show. Harper will be a visible presence on the Facebook site, which is mentioned at the end of every TV spot.
Quaker Oats marketing honcho Kirsten Lynch admits a lot of people simply don't make time in their busy schedules for breakfast. She hopes this campaign will push people to rethink breakfast and the role oatmeal can play. We think this new campaign just may be amazing enough to get people to do just that.

Who Is Nomorefan / IHateHer / LynchHer / NKsKids4Sale From E Online Kidding?

nomorefan: I'm going off topic here for a moment, and I just want to remind you all that we should consider ourselves lucky to be country music fans and really have an appreciation for the country music genre. I was given free excellent tickets to the Lady Gaga concert last night - $180 BTW! You couldn't beat the seats, but give me country music any day. There were little kids there - like around 8 years old - I had my 14 year-old son with because he loves her music. Her opening act - who I will not give recognition to - was disgusting. As an audience member, I don't appreciate being called a biotch, sl#t and wh@re during the show. I also don't appreciate the F word being sung every other word in a song, and could you maybe have more than one sentence in a song? They acknowledged that there were parents in the audience with kids, but were exposing the kids to real rock-n-roll? Really? Seriously? Give me Springsteen, Seger, Bon Jovi, etc., any day over this "rock-n-roll". I also didn't appreciate being told that they wish the audience - yes the ENTIRE audience - gets laid after show.
I have taken my son to many country music concerts and have never regretted it because they were wholesome family shows. The things he saw, the things he heard should never be heard by him or 8 year-olds during a concert. There should be some type of age requirement with this tour.
Gaga's performance was like a broadway musical - lots of dancers, but if I paid $180 to see her perform, I would sure want her to be singing instead of listening to a CD. She even admitted during her piano session that those were the only songs she sang live in the concert.
After seeing the show, I just want everyone to have a greater appreciation of what country music has to offer compared to other genres/artists.
PUH-LEAZE!
What everyone needs to be reminded of is the disgusting things you've posted and your alternate user names on other websites.
Here's just a small sample of nomorefan's true character
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have nothing to worry about!

New Video - Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban In Hong Kong - Skeptic Myths Debunked
Once again video proves that skeptics like maclen, MADISON, Oh So " Loony" and erniesmom from Urban Myths and The E! Online Awful Truth are liars.
MADISON: It looks to me, like he didn't have such a good time. No one seems to be paying attention to him. They are all talking amongst themselves and it is like Keith is the background music. Then the pictures of Baldy makes her look like a fool that she is. Look at the people behind her. They look like they are at a funeral.
erniesmom: Why is it that she seems to be Enjoying the music and having a good time when shes NOT in NASH? Every time I'[ve seen her at a Country Mucis Show(Awards usually) she is Yawning and Bored
Jakra777 / Oh " so" Leery / I'm Still Leery: never saw a couple that put out such trash. Its really amateurish maybe thats why there are no parts for her she just cant act!
maclen: And yes blue sky, no doubt a part of that $10 mil spent on a simple real estate investment was that $1 mil they got for that "special" UN/Omega trip where they supposedly raised just over a $100k for charity...between the "fraken" both of them...while they ended up getting paid over $1 mil to do it!
maclen won't tell you the truth and that is the UNIFEM gala fundraiser was simply the capper to the trip for Nicole and Keith. Nicole spent the day promoting Omega (she is an ambassador for them after all) going to a store opening which also coincided with the launch of the limited edition Omega Constellation Co-Axial Chronometer. Whatever she was paid, and we have no idea where you are getting your figures maclen, is for her contract with Omega...a contract that other celebrities like George Clooney have. Omega and UNIFEM found a partnership together and does anyone really think Nicole Kidman or Keith Urban was paid for the charity gala? NO! In fact, if you watch the video in its entirety you'll see that the event was fully endorsed by UNIFEM and in attendance was Joan Libby-Hawk, UNIFEM's public affairs chief. You'll also see the signed box of the watch Nicole was given by Omega, which she auctioned off for UNIFEM.
The skeptics continue to lie. They won't tell you Nicole has been involved with the UN, specifically UNICEF and UNICEF Australia since 1994.
They won't tell you Nicole's acceptance into UNIFEM was conditional upon a meeting by the executive director Noeleen Heyzer
"She's a great listener and an extraordinary person."
~Heyzer, Redbook Magazine, September 2006

Nicole Kidman Lies About Alpacas,
Leipers Fork Garden, And Baptism?
More Skeptic Myths Debunked
The alpacas have come home to roost readers! Reality keeps biting the E! Online and Urban Myths skeptics in the ass over and over again! You can trust Skewering The Skeptics will be here to document it all. So let's get started.
The skeptics have decided that everything Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban say about their personal life is a lie. Even if there's photographs, like the Urban and Kidman clans at an alpaca farm, it's all staged for publicity. They especially like to say Nicole is lying about the garden they have on their property in Tennessee.
Any of these old quotes look familiar?
nomorefan: Her fables of gardening in Nashville, the alpacas she purchased for someone else to take care of at the ranch she has been to once, and yearning to milk a goat.
Mimosa: Yeah...can't you just see Granny Baby BBQ Girl cultivating a roof top garden in her overalls and straw hat..and her scarves.....being all organic and everything.
She might even put a few goats on the elevator so she can make that cheese.
Mimosa: The idea of HagMaw having a vegetable garden in TN while she's filming in NY is really hilarious.
hoosierlady: I think this is PR for victim NK, other sites are recycling the alpaca story and the garden story, it is pretty late in the year to be planting a garden
maclen: Well, I voted for kidman winning first prize at the county fair for her zucchini lips...simply because it was the most hilarious choice.
Hilarious you say? Well we have one more person telling it like it really is. If you recall Laurel Edwards, an Australian DJ, is living temporarily in Nashville while her husband, and long-time friend of Keith's, Troy Cassar-Daley works on his music. She's been giving her listeners back home updates on what it's like living in America. Well this latest clip is one more nail in the skeptics' coffin!
Click HERE to listen to what she has to say about getting to know Nicole. Scroll down to the August 24th entry.
Now remember the "fake" trip to Italy the Urbans took?
Oh " so" Leery: We get pics of her crossing the street until we're ready to barf and no pics of four days in Italy??? Boy, now is that not a quandary??
Oh yes Father well it's true she wasn't born in Nash she was born in where ever. Oh no Father we are not really the parents we're the pretend parents. But does that really mean anything. Can't we just lie to everyone. I'm sure the Church wouldn't mind!! We're so wonderful!! You can just fill out the Baptismal Certificate as follows: Thank you so much!! ((giggles)))
innervoice: And I think it's reprehensible that she mentions the baptism of her daughter in Italy to garner attention for NINE. BTW, I don't believe that tale for a second.
Mimosa: It's also reprehensible that Itty Bitty allows her to do it. They both make me sick.
A440: And I remain suspicious of those reports of Sunday's Italian baptism - the one that occurred sans family while KUNK were on vacation.
nomorefan: nomorefan: More lies from Nine Lips. Remember the quick, little get-away - remember the one where Suro got baptized, and he literally got off the airport and onto the stage for his show because his plane arrived late?
Despite the fact there were tweets and at least one fan photo from Sienna, the skeptics kept denying everything. That trip is already over a year ago, but like we say here at STS...the truth always comes out.
Huge thanks to the writer of the article below. She uploaded her piece that ran recently in the Giornale di Reggio about some of Northern Italy's finest food and food service.
Notice anything about Page 2? Yes that's Nicole Kidman in two of the photos. Unfortunately the text, even enlarged, is very difficult to read. However that did not deter us at STS. Scanning the article we found the confirmation that the Urbans did in fact have a baptism (batessimo).
But there's more! The text in the photos above may be excruciatingly small. But a little detective work online gave us the website for chef Paola and sommelier Villiam, and their restaurant Ristorante alla Pieve. Yes, they are the same staff featured in the Reggio article.
Included is a page summarizing what they did for Nicole, her family, and her friends for the time they were there. Below is a photo of the program for the baptism that the skeptics say never happened.
News & Guests
From a January 2010 interview in UK Magazine SHE
Before the country crooner kicked off his tour last year, the trio — along with a few close friends — rented a villa in Italy for two weeks for a bit of rest and relaxation! “We ate, played music, swam, drove to nearby cities,” she recalls.
Oh and before nomorefan starts ranting and raving, the dates already confirm that Keith joined Nicole and their daughter in Italy, and then they left together with Keith bound for his Boston show.
All this debunking makes yours truly nostalgic. Want to take a peek at another blog where we ripped the skeptics to shreds?

E! Online Skeptic Mimosa: A Liar Exposed
If there's anyone left that thinks E! online skeptic Mimosa has any credibility or tells the truth in any of her posts, think again. Throughout the years of lies she's spread, Mimosa says she was a Keith Urban fan 10 years ago when she wasn't, says she knows people in Nashville that know something concrete about KU when she doesn't, says she's a fan of Jimmy Wayne when she couldn't care less except for her own sick agenda, says Nicole learned the sex trade while in Amsterdam which is a lie, says she cares about children while she mocks all of Nicole's, lives in her own world of make-believe where Nicole is a pedophile, and says all of Nicole's fans are necrophiliacs or transvestites / all of Keith Urban's fans are teenagers.
What's left? Reality smacking her in the face and hammering the final nail in the coffin!
Mimosa: He hasn't interacted with fans on the street in years...not in the way he used to. Aug 18, 2010 2:36 PM
The photo below was sent in to us by a reader
As you can see it's from within the past year (Nicole's hair is red).
Not shocking at all, Nicole and Keith are happy to pose with some fans while they were out and about.
Mimosa, the liar, fully exposed.
It's. Just. That. Easy.
BAHAHAHAHA!

Another Keith Urban Myths Blog
Debunked: Bacall Disses Kidman
One of the biggest urban myths the skeptics have tried to keep alive online is that Lauren Bacall, two-time co-star of Nicole Kidman, dissed her in a 2004 interview. There's so much to the story that the E! and Urban Myths blog skeptics won't tell you. They simply keep repeating like brainless sheep that Bacall deliberately insulted Kidman.
THE FACTS
The interview occurred in 2004 while Bacall was promoting Birth.
A presenter for the British morning show GMTV, Jenni Falconer, made the uneducated statement," And now you've worked alongside another screen legend, Nicole Kidman ..." whereby Bacall interrupted her with this quote
Lauren Bacall: "She's not a legend. She's a beginner. What is this 'legend'? She can't be a legend at whatever age she is. She can't be a legend, you have to be older."
Nicole was only 37 at the time.
So why did the skeptics latch onto the quote? Because it was taken out of context courtesy of the media. There were stories claiming that Bacall was dissing Kidman with the abbreviated statement "She's not a legend. She's a beginner". The skeptics as usual, ignored the truth and latched onto reporting that was incorrect and misleading. But that's par for the course with the skeptics. If they can't invent something they lift other lies from other sources.
While we don't have that original interview we'd like to point out that Falconer is also par for the course in the UK. It's very common for female presenters, or what we Americans usually call hosts, to be young, pretty, without a journalism or media degree, and known to pose during the course of their fame for men's magazines or ads wearing very little. We can safely say they are more personality than serious broadcaster. Falconer is in fact one such "personality". Her lack of preparedness gave exactly what the media wanted, a malleable story that could be turned into something negative.
So what does Lauren Bacall really think of Nicole Kidman? The skeptics simply don't want you to know.
This blurb that was posted on the Urbna Myths blog in the terms just as we described above - inaccurate and misleading.
So, What Does Nicole Kidman Get Out Of This Deal Anyway?
September 2004 - Bacall Disses Kidman’s Legend Tag - During an interview on British TV show GMTV yesterday morning, Bacall, 79, became irritated when the 37-year-old Oscar winner was described as "a legend". Cutting off interviewer Jenni Falconer in mid-sentence, Bacall blurted, "She's not a legend. She's a beginner.”
Choice and Nicole Kidman's Journey even wrote a whole blog about it. Unfortunately for Choice they were told they had distorted the facts, but the blog decided, as usual to dismiss the truth.
Lauren Bacall will put you in your place
Today the myth continues. From an Urban Myths devotee....
smorgas91: l bacall came out swinging when nk was referred as a legend a few years back
But as always STS has the real deal, the proof!
So let's start with some video. Here's Lauren at Nicole's American Cinematheque tribute.
We also have some quotes
From the Venice Film festival, promoting Birth
"I love working with a young actress. Nicole and I worked together on Dogville and we were friends when we started this. That laid the groundwork for our fabulous relationship on screen and off."
Nicole has often talked about her friendship with Lauren, calling her her "NY mother" and later in 2006 revealing that she'd like to see the legend win an Oscar. It's easy to see the two are true friends.
When Bacall updated her autobiography By Myself and Then Some, her friendship and work with Nicole was included. There's a photo of them together at the Birth premiere and she says this....
"Nicole Kidman was the star, and I would most happily play her mother. I was thrilled beyond words."
In 2008 Bacall attended the NY premiere of Australia
So much for this lie from this misinformed, anonymous skeptic:
"I am sure Lauren would not want to be known for being friends with Kidman. She has too much class to be seen with the likes of stick insect."
Another Urban Myths myth debunked. Not just the title topic but also many other aspects the skeptics try to lie about on a daily basis. Any of these sound familiar? Nicole Kidman has no friends. Nicole's co-stars never want to see or work with her again. Nicole lies about her life. Nicole cannot compliment anyone in the industry on their work. Nicole is a narcissist.
It's. Just. That. Easy.
BAHAHAHAHA!

Why Other E! Online Skeptics Keep Their Distance From Mimosa
Mimosa is out of the loop when it comes to the friendship and backstabbing aspects of being a good skeptic. She's not BFF's with anyone, she doesn't have a sick and twisted dynamic like buddies nomorefan and astilbe. There's no co-dependent relationship to share the anger. What she said yesterday is a definite indicator of why. She tops the list for being libelous and defamatory when it comes to Nicole Kidman.
Here's the latest lie she's spreading...
Mimosa: Yep. And she meant for it [Schweppes' ad] to be suggestive. She's disgusting and immoral and very twisted.
But this we all can believe...
Mimosa: I won't buy anything she endorses. And I enlighten people about her all the time....starting with the movie "Birth".
No wonder Mimosa is a twisted nutcase. How many times in Anytown USA does Nicole Kidman come up in normal conversation? We know Mimosa, just like most of the skeptics, isn't anywhere near Nashville, Australia, or LA. She's nomorefan on steroids, talking about Nicole Kidman everywhere she goes, being sure to tell everyone she's a pervert. You can't get more twisted than that. We'd bet she gets alot of that fake Southern politeness she says she knows Nashville throws at Nicole. People nod and smile; at the end of her crackpot theories the parties subjected to them are rolling their eyes as they walk away in disbelief. "Enlighten"? Letting people know how hateful you are would be enlightening.
Where's fellow know-it-all givethanks / NewBeginnings when you need her. She'd post single sentence paragraphs, trying to convince everyone her nasty thoughts were 100% fact and irrefutable, all the while being a good Christian woman of course. It's too bad they didn't become BFF's....that's Backstabbing Friends Forever.

E! Online Skeptic Nomorefan
Is Simply Mentally Ill
nomorefan: Oh, and I forgot to mention that I had deja vu during "The Others". There is a scene where she is sleeping nose-to-nose with her husband, and I'm sitting there thinking, "I've seen this pose before." Yes, it was Suro's first picture revealed on Oprah - ya know the one where Baby Girl BBQ and Suro are "sleeping" and KU Masterpiece took the picture with his iPhone . . . yea right! Same exact expression on her face in the movie and in the picture . . . all an act!
If that isn't enough, let's compare the two women. On the one hand you have nomorefan who is so obsessed with a woman she is comparing the ending of a scene in a movie to a real mother lying with her real baby. Readers, what is even more disturbing is that the shot nomorefan is referring to is the end of a sex scene.
Then you have Nicole Kidman who is accused by nomorefan, Mimosa, and others of being a child predator, pervert, and all around weirdo. For those that don't know, Nicole was so upset that The Others script had been changed while she was filming Moulin Rouge that she fought the director to have it changed back. The script was rewritten to make her character a mother who physically abuses her children. Nicole won the battle and afterwards the director was very pleased that she had fought for her vision of the character and film.
"I read the script and thought, 'Great.' Then I went and did Moulin Rouge. "I went back and read the script, and there had been a rewrite on it, and I thought, 'This isn't the film I wanted to make.' "I arrived in Spain and in this script, I am hitting a child - and I saw this film as being about a mother's love for her children, not her desire to kill the children. " - Nicole Kidman
nomorefan's obsession with Nicole Kidman knows know bounds. It's Fiji water bottles on vacation, discussions with her hairdresser, and magic meatloaf to fix a perfect marriage that doesn't need any effort. It's continually watching the movies of a woman that she hates; one of her other screennames is "ihateher".
It doesn't matter if you care about Nicole Kidman or her movies. Anyone can see a sick deep obsession has taken root in nomorefan. How many people have suffered because of it?

12,736 posts posts later
nomorefan: "The Others" was on last night, and my son never saw it, so we watched it. It was the first time I had seen the movie in years, and wow, that woman just can't act. I kept thinking I was watching some community theater - ya now where your next door neighbor, who you would never imagine on stage, is playing the lead role. My daughter noticed that she lost the English accent in about half the scenes - just like in "Awfulstralia". I noticed it right away, but laughed when it was apparent to my daughter. Her face never changes in the movie - never, and she needs to show fear several times, but all she knows how to do is breathe heavily. When I saw the movie years ago, I said then that the kids were by far better actors - even the old maid is better than her. She makes it hard to watch what should be a good movie.

So The Skeptics Say No One
Likes Nicole Kidman
Hollywood doesn't. Australia doesn't. America doesn't. Country music folk don't. Keith Urban's family don't. Movie co-stars and employees take the money and tolerate the cold-hearted bitch. Children run away at the mere sight of her. She has no friends.
We've heard all that and more haven't we? Well it's time to put the skeptics from E! Online and Urban Myths in their place. A blog so big it needs it's own page! Follow STS as we debunk the skeptics through pictures. We've made a collection of rarely seen photographs that the haters are going to well, hate! Toni Collette and Cate Blanchett, the "real" actresses of Australia, talking and laughing with Nicole. Having a good time on film sets. Sean Penn going to dinner with Nicole when he's supposed to be disliking her with every fiber of his being, according to Mimosa. Nicole mingling at the CMA's, just for nomorefan. Remember the fabricated relationship Nicole had with Hugh Jackman and his family for Australia? We've got Nicole hanging out with wife Deborra-Lee 4 years prior! And much much more!

The Obvious Irony Of The E! Online Skeptics

nomorefan: This organization is nothing but a waste of money and resources. It is going to take a lot more than a signed piece of paper to stop extremists.
nomorefan: UNIFEM and your Goodwill AmbASSador - where are you for these women and this unborn child? What does abuse mean to you?
innervoice: You'd think with all of the NATURAL plastic surgery BBQ Pork Chop has had, she'd offer to pay for the reconstruction of that poor woman's face. I'm sure Ms. UNIFEM knows a myriad of talented physicians.
nomorefan: Can anyone tell me what Baby Girl BBQ is doing to save these women from being stoned to death - yes I said stoned to death - buried in a hole with their arms in the hole - nothing for them to try and shield their face from stones being thrown at it! But this would mean Baby Girl BBQ would have to go to Iran!
************************
We can read this nonsense and see the skeptics constantly contradict themselves. They post how awful and extreme a situations is, and then insist that one specific UN ambassador is supposed to march in and make the extremists obey Western law. What happened to the rest of them, political or celebrity? Is only Nicole Kidman qualified? Yes, that's one foot in the skeptics' mouths already. Here's the other....
The real gem in all of this is that the E! Online skeptics don't realize what they are truly proposing. Hypothetically let's say Nicole Kidman gives up her movie career completely and becomes UNIFEM's Mother Theresa. She's living only to fight against the injustices committed against women. Do the dummies like nomorefan, Mimosa, and innervoice realize how much media coverage she'd be getting? Oh the irony!
If only the skeptics were smart enough to see their plans backfire before they go through with them. They'd be better served critiquing Nicole Kidman's movies than ranting about social issues they don't really care about or understand.
Where's the Jimmy Wayne thread been?
It's. Just. That. Easy.

E! Online's Nomorefan:
Latest Keith Urban Crime
Against Humanity Is Oatmeal Elitism
nomorefan: He's become as high maintenance as his wife - highest quality, free range meat and organic vegetables, high quality sushi with steel cut oatmeal
nomorefan: To the average consumer, who really cares if oatmeal is cut with steel or not? Who puts this in the average Joe's head?
If you too want to participate in Oatmeal Elitism you don't have to look far....
That's right readers, steel cut oats are sold in Wal-Marts or under a generic brand at a store near you. nomorefan's purposefully outlandish and ignorant argument that Average Joe doesn't buy steel cut oats is a prime example of the stupidity she's been spewing for the past 5 years. Only habitual hater Mimosa went along with nomorefan, calling healthy eating a "pretension".
It's. Just. That. Easy.

When You're Hot You're Hot....

When you're not you're not. Or so the old Jerry Reed song goes. But if you are a KUNK skeptic, Keith Urban can be both, depending on which day it is.
Another day, another BI
I don't know if it is because it has been awhile since I had a blind item about country music singers or the fact of who this is about, but I love this one. Two country singers. The male is A++ list. Married. To a celebrity. Can't say too much about the wife or it would totally give it away. The other singer is a woman. Probably a B list in the country singing world. Maybe that is just because of her name recognition though. She is also in a significant relationship. Anyway, the two have known each other for a few years. They met in a meeting if you know what I mean. Her for one reason and him for another. The next thing you know, they are trying to arrange tour dates close to each other and meeting at a place in Nashville when his wife is out of town. She has said the sex is kind of boring and quiet but really likes him and feels sorry for him. What about your boyfriend or his wife? I wonder if she feels sorry for them.
No need to provide the link because let's face it, that's what these websites use the BI's for....visitor traffic.
But good ol' hit n run on E! Online and Urban Myths are posting this like it's Christmas for the skeptics.
It's very curious that Keith Urban, washed up since 2006, p-whipped, contract-bound, sniveling liar Keith Urban is labeled an A+++ lister. From that the skeptics scream "Yes! It must be Keith Urban and only Keith Urban!"
But posts on any other day from the nastiest, most fervent, and most idiotic skeptics like nomorefan, Mimosa, and Inept Senior Skeptic maclen will tell you he's done. His career is gone and he gave it away or Nicole Kidman stole it.
It's classic maclen contradicting herself today
maclen: could it be that something is just recently bubbling up to the "public" surface regarding the orb?
And habitual hater Mimosa has said this in the past....
Mimosa: He's been ruined forever as far as I'm concerned.
[On a side note, an E! Online search reveals just how many times Mimosa has used the word "cooties". What is she, 4?!]
So readers which is it? Blind Item for today and they'll say he's a cheating A-lister. Tomorrow when they ignore "I'm In" moving up the charts or the concert reviews he's Branson bound!
In today's blog we'd like to congratulate hit n run for linking up with some real geniuses. That group at CDAN, whoever they are....gossip lovers or skeptics under other usernames....really give us a chuckle. One of them didn't know Brad Paisley was an A-lister of Nashville and called Carrie B-list. She's not single and how do they know the Paisley's marriage is solid if they don't know simple facts like that. Another thinks troubled Mindy McCready is B-list.Unfortunately McCready is only on the radar for what has gone wrong in her life. A few think Julianne Hough is B-list. She wishes she was B-list after dumping DWTS. One thinks the other woman is Shania, even though she's not in Nashville, definitely A-list, and not touring.
A heads up to the gossip mongers: There are stars in Nashville with addictions that you don't know about. But if you don't even know that Brad Paisley is A-list don't even try to guess a Nashville BI, know matter how grounded in truth it may seem.
Even the BI isn't sure of the career status of the other woman. How convenient. Again, we're dealing with the highest caliber of writers here!
But let's put it this way. If they (Crazy Days And Nights, Lainey, Ted) really wanted you to know they'd give you enough to figure it out. What they really want is for you to keep guessing and unless you keep it to yourself that means coming back over and over to their sites.
Just read this. nomorefan has fallen for it hook, line, and sinker
nomorefan: Well, we'll have to keep track of who Enty talks about on there.
Let's wait and watch Urban Myths try to pull off Miranda Lambert as "the other woman" ;-) Did she get flowers on the bus every night like Katrina did? Miranda will be in Switzerland in September? Is that the secret getaway?
BAHAHAHAHAHA!
It's. Just. That. Easy.
And always remember.....
If the gal is "sorry", maybe it's Brenda Lee!
Lah lahlah lah lah laaaaaaah,

Birth: E! Online Skeptic Mimosa Thinks There's A Sucker Born Every Minute

Mimosa: Did she bother to go by Sean Penn's place and lend a hand? He's the real deal, and he has no time for photo ops and PR statements. He's busy actually helping people instead of just helping himself. He's been down there for months...not just a few hours.
Hey UNIFEM....nice try, but Nippy-Ho Kidman is the LAST person you should have as a representative for your organization, and for women and children. It shows how corrupt and out of touch the UN really is....having the woman who starred in "Birth" speaking for women and children is quite frankly disgusting and insulting.
You know what's insulting? Mimosa knowing full well she's lying to everyone. Truth be told in any other forum she'd nail Sean Penn to the wall for his politics and for "being un-American". No one comes more closed-minded than "nobody ever changes, ever" Mimosa.
Take this statement for example that Penn made at the Oscars (talk about getting PR for a cause!)
"I think that it is a good time for those who voted for the ban against gay marriage to sit and reflect and anticipate their great shame and the shame in their grandchildren's eyes if they continue that way of support. We've got to have equal rights for everyone."
But you know with the skeptics conveniently posting a story that has one photo and not giving any relevant links, and not admitting the trip was two days, no one can get the full picture. But that's the idea in Skepticville. If you're going to mention anything positive it has to be in half-truths and used to make either Keith, Nicole, or both of them look bad. Jakra777 asked why did Nicole leave so late in the month? Well we all know the trip was planned for late in the month, as revealed by Hello magazine.
We know how much Mimosa loves to mention Nicole Kidman's film Birth every chance she gets because she is one of those nuts who sees sex in everything. Well she's in luck because now her name and her stupidity are linked with the film and the film's opening credit shot. If only we were as hateful as you Mimosa. Think what we could accomplish. Certainly your efforts rival if not exceed Penn's. The next time you see Mr. No PR, getting no coverage, you must complain since he's ruining your reputation as a know-it-all.
Here's the just the latest

Charlie Rose Interview

But as we all know Penn has been getting coverage from the beginning!

Congratulations Mimosa for being a total jackass!

Skeptics, The Truth Comes
Home To Roost Yet Again!
We're interrupting the normal stream of updates for a special blog. One the E! Online and Urban Myths Skeptics will simply love.
First a hello to nomorefan who left me another "anonymous" message.
nomorefan is so classy. Can't you tell by reading this latest post?
nomorefan: Then spoke of her second marriage to KU Masterpiece, and he isn't Australian either. The good part - the main male morning personality said, "I still don't know who Keith Urban is." (This isn't a country radio station.) With that, one of the other guys said, "If you saw him, you would think gay right away!"
Need I say more?
Nicole winning Best Local Nashville Celebrity must have been too much so she stopped by yesterday to let me know I had a hard on for Keith and Nicole. Oh and that I belong in the loony bin. Guess nomorefan got me confused with her buddies. Just take a look....
From November 13, 2009 12:47 PM
maclen: Well, MARK MY WORDS NOW... next year...after her dreary indie flicks have fizzled to minor release..or even to "straight to dvd status"...dont be surprised that "excerpts" from those "allegedly destroyed bad diaries" dont make it onto the internets! And of course inept team kidman will deny them as fake...or that they did not leak them...but I certainly expect it to happen.
Unfortunately for you Inept Senior Skeptic maclen, we are marking your words and it doesn't look good. Your batting average is ZERO. With Rabbit Hole premiering at Toronto we expect the lies to get even more elaborate and ridiculous.
kakee: She is going down. And there's nothing she can do. Bigger boobs will only make her more of a joke than she already is.
BAHAHAHA!
********************************
Nicole Kidman: Winner of Best Local Nashville Celebrity
vs.
Urban Myths Blog Photoshopped Sidebar
Pretty self-explanatory isn't it?
*************************************
kakee:Whenever she talks about Keith, it's always about his great love for her, and what he does for her. When they were first together, it made me nuts to hear her talk in interviews, because she would not give him credit for anything. But then I thought about other interviews I had heard from her, and realized that she never gave anyone any credit for anything. She seems afraid to do that, which is such a shame, because I always find those type of stars so much more likable.
It's why I've always loved Meryl Streep. Whenever she complimented on her talent, she always rolls her eyes and laughs, like you've got to be kidding. And when she's on with other actors, you can tell how much she loves to work and laugh with other. She's a true actor and others love to work with her.
You are simply a liar kakee. Here's just some of the examples that we could find in 5 minutes
Nicole talking about the cast of Nine: "It was interesting being around this cast," said Kidman. "People asked us about the egos and everything, and I think when you're working egos are not a part of it because when you love what you do you're just so glad to be around other people who love what they do. I came into the rehearsal room and saw Kate dancing up a storm, and said, 'Wow! That's amazing. I can't wait for people to see that part of her, and maybe she'll get a Broadway show out of this because she so deserves the lead in a show, whether she wants it or not.' I think that's what it is, and you see that with our director, he's just in the trenches, working everyday, and he still does not want to give the film up. That's what you need to be around to do good work, because it's contagious."
Nicole talking about Daniel Craig: “The thing about Daniel, and the reason I like working with him, is that he’s an actor’s actor.”
Nicole Kidman on Taylor Swift: She is a delight," Kidman said. "And she so deserves what's happening to her because, having met her and seeing her actually really become a phenomenon over the past couple of years, she really deserves it." Swift, of course, became the youngest person ever to win the CMA Entertainer of the Year award, among other honors. As if that weren't enough, Kidman went even further in her praise for Swift. "She's a honey bun," Kidman said. "She's everything that she appears to be."
Nicole on Robert Pattinson: "He's great," she said. "I think he's a really fine actor, actually, because he wants to be great. He's working with the right people."
Nicole on director Noah Baumbach: "I had seen ‘Squid and the Whale’, I had read the script and I had seen what Noah had done and was capable of, and had previously worked with Wes Anderson as a writer and I just thought he was an original voice in American cinema and I was very honored to be a part of this group."
Nicole on The Shining: "But this is what I love about Jack's performance in this movie. He is so bold in the way he does it. Look at how mean, how awful, he is to her. He doesn't hold back. In no sense is he winking at the audience and saying, 'Oh, I'm not really like this.' He just goes for it. Such a good combination, Stanley and Jack. Who would have guessed it?"
Our favorite clips. Watch closely kakee. Is "Meryl Streep" the standard line all skeptics bring out when they try to lie their way through an argument?
and most recently from the piece in Interview magazine with Marion Cotillard....
Nicole: "Yeah I want that bliss. I also think it happens [thinking about death] when you suddenly meet somebody who changes you. I met someone who I want to continue my life with for as long as I can. It saddens me so much to think of not having him, my love, in my life. Goodbye becomes a thing where I just think, Oh please no - for him and for my children...."
It's. Just. That. Easy.
BAHAHAHAHA!

Can You Imagine The E! Online
Skeptics Out In The Real World?

We've talked about this before, but it bears discussion again. The E! Online Skeptics cannot possible function in any productive, meaningful way in the real world. They are caught up in stereotypes.
There's Mimosa who thinks all college-educated people act and think the same way. Somehow we can't see alot of similarities between people like Kris Kristoffersson and Bill Gates, or Trisha Yearwood and Natalie Portman. She's also black-hearted enough to believe no one can ever change for the better, but that's a whole other discussion in itself.
nomorefan thinks a real marriage is all sunshine and roses. If you're meant to be you don't have to put any effort into it. It just happens. Trouble in paradise looming? Make him a meatloaf. A real man grabs his crotch, is always the boss of the house, and rightfully expects home-cooked meals every day. If you're male don't bend your wrist too much...you might be gay. Be constantly talking and using both hands, otherwise people have the right to assume you've had a stroke.
The latest delusional rambling is from erniesmom, the cultural know-it-all who likes to define who you are and what you do by where you're from. But today she moves into the political arena. Her mistake....
erniesmom: She has said she is Australian......Now hes saying the same.
All they want from this country is MONEY!
That's why they choose to live in America. That's why they help the community and the country in times of crisis. But let's not let that stop you from criticizing that they didn't donate enough money to Australia for the bushfire disaster. I hear "flip flop, flip flop".
Do they vote? Jury Duty? hahaha Can you picture her on a jury.....OMG!
She wouldn't be selected to serve. A person of her level of celebrity would never chosen by fear of the attorneys that the celeb would have influence in the deliberation room. Celebrities are called for jury duty like everyone else. How many A-listers can you name that have been picked for a trial?
We at STS would say Nicole votes. She's donated to political candidates before and it's been documented. Keith attended the Vote For Change rally with other musician friends. If he's allowed to vote in certain local US elections there's no reason to think he wouldn't. But isn't this moot because aren't the skeptics supposed to know what Keith and Nicole are up to with all their insider "sources"? The old couple that says nothing and Jimmy Carter can't help with that it seems.
I just made my own day...
She made sure that child was born here......Case closed!
Why would that matter? She's already a citizen, by birth! The skeptics don't care. Each one of you would say she faked the birth in Sydney by paying off locals and calling in favors.
BTW Aren't you forgetting that the skeptics believed the rumor she was having the baby in Australia with her father in the delivery room, until she didn't and you and the tabs were WRONG? One fan could tell you that made no sense as her father is a writer and researcher, not to mention the inappropriateness of the entire idea! Who looks stupid now?
Remember when they were moving to the UK?
They never were. Just another in the hundreds of stories from gossip sites that the skeptics don't believe themselves but treat as "facts" later.
Has anyone heard about the taxes there? IN England she would be paying 50% of everything she earns....
Oh right-shes not working.....So that doesnt apply.
Warped sense of reality. The Negative thread seems to be ignoring what she's doing. From the activity there you'd think Keith was taking a vacation too!
BAHAHAHAHA!
It's. Just. That. Easy.

Urban Myths Skeptics: We Know
We're Lying But Leave Us Alone!

We've had more than a few comments and private messages as of late from readers who say don't these women know they know they're lying? Oh they do. Do they know how stupid they look? Oh they do! They know we know and they are so fixated on hate they don't care. Inept Senior Skeptic Maclen proclaimed that Keith wouldn't be recording another album. Ooops, he's been in the studio and writing with many established artists and songwriters. You know the ones that are embarrassed by him and hate his wife. Successful tour, and that next album on Capitol is coming but Urban Myths posts
"He's been SO busy recording and touring. What a joke."
It's nothing but deceitful and vindictive blogging.
Should we dear Urban Myths go over the skeptic lies that had Capitol dropping him, Capitol demanding he record in Nashville, or that Nicole Kidman is paying for the albums? BAHAHAHAHA!
Some key pieces of a conversation from the past few days between skeptics and two people who have some common sense just rip the Urban Myths blog to shreds. Poor skeptics.
JOY: I personally don't need DNA results or copies of her medical records to be satisfied. They have the right to their privacy ESPECIALLY about pregnancies & any other medical situations that they have. It's a very sensitive area for people no matter who you are. Just my little ole opinion.
mikki: Laura, NK has the choice of keeping her private life private. She choses not to. So she invites the questions and speculation based on her own actions. Sorry we don't take everything they say as the gospel truth as you fans do. And where is your evidence that its all true? To me, believing this whole fairytale is just as ridiculous.
hoosierlady: They have a right to nothing private, as long as they put themselves out there. We pay to be entertained, hence the words "media whores".
Laura: Really? Oh my God, I had no idea you could read her mind!
Jeez, you guys think you know everything.
I'd be open to considering the ideas you people have on this couple, if they weren't so ridiculous! Yes, the marriage is weird to me too, but I still have yet to hear/see any evidence (that's legit and/or MAKES SENSE!!) that they're everything you guys claim they are.
Laura: I never ONCE said that I KNOW this or that is true. If you read what I wrote, I said that I'd HOPE she loves him, and that nothing is wrong with him expressing his love for her. Whether he means it or doesn't, WHO KNOWS? NOT US. Like I said before.
abc: DITCH THE ATTITUDE, LAURA!!
Reread the title of this blog!!!
If you don't like what it's about, LEAVE!! Stop making it about the commenters.
and, for your information, not "EVERY" married couple fights ... maybe in your world ... MANY MANY MANY people get along nicely and agreeably ... but then, you do tend to generalise anyway so your opinion on marriage would no doubt fall out of the same mould.
Okay abc, we reread the title of the blog. URBAN MYTHS. That's exactly what that blog is. Myths, or rumors, or fantasies you all want to wallow in. Whatever you want to call them, at the end of the day the rumors you post as facts....from gossip sites, tabloids, crappy women's magazines or your own computer screen....is all you have. That's why your posts are identical from 5 years ago. A wedding from 4 years ago, a pregnancy from 2 years ago...the talk is all the same. Same stories, same rumors, same skeptic-created lies. WE ALL KNOW IT!
Please tell us exactly the day you thought Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman owed you an explanation for anything they do regarding their personal life.
hoosierlady get some help if you think celebrities owe you access to medical records, private photos, tax documents, contracts, and personal conversations.
The skeptics want all of Keith Urban and they're left with none.
Remind you of anyone? The next time a skeptic says something ridiculous (just wait a minute, it'll happen) say "Here we go again!"
P.S. Some of you skeptics might want to ask abc why she spent so much time at STS looking at the Skeptic Fashion Show Thread! The backstabbing and infighting continues!

The Cavendish Beach Music Festival: Gloriana, Keith Urban
JULY 9, 2010
by Agustin
Wow! Yesterday was nothing compared to today. The festival’s attendance grew exponentially tonight, July 8, at the Cavendish Festival as the international acts took the stage. We here at the Swift Agency- are too tired to make jokes. Let’s get to it.
I was awaiting the sounds of Gloriana. They didn’t disappoint in their performance. The quartet came out to their usually opening number of How Far Do You Wanna Go? which was recognized and sang back word for word by the audience.
There were a few technical glitches. As Tom Gossin said when he switched to the keyboard, “sometimes things happen. Sometimes you get to Canada and your mike stand is not there.” Cheyenne helped Tom figure out a keyboard problem while Mike Gossin improvised a guitar solo. According to Rachel, Cheyenne is the “techie” of the group. However, Cheyenne also run into issues when she switched to a guitar only to discover it wasn’t working. The group quickly improvised and moved along.
The crowd was chanting for Wild At Heart but Gloriana didn’t cut short their set.
I liked their performance of The World Is Ours Tonight. Rachel shined with her rendition of Fleetwood Mac’s Say That You Love Me. They also sang The Way It Goes which was also a crowd favorite. Tom excels on the acoustic guitar on that one.
Wild At Heart was the icing on the cake. It got everybody singing and shouting. I was so glad that I had managed to get VIP access which also allowed me dibs to be in the pit for Gloriana.
Keith Urban was the king of the night, and one excellent headliner. He’s one of those artists with such a gallery of hits that it’s impossible for him to play them all but somehow it feels he did. He opened with Kiss A Girl which made everyone rush forward.
I give Urban his dues, he knows how to work the crowd. I also can’t help but identify which cues Taylor Swift has picked up from him during the time she was her opening act. Keith also moves into the crowd to perform at some point. He makes it back walking through the crowd. Sound familiar? Tay picked up this idea from Keith’s.
Urban is a true artist. He makes sure he travels all the way to each side of the stage and has a mike set up there to keep on singing. He’s one serious guitar player, there’s as much rock as country in his performance. Lighting changes and a different video backdrop for each song, not really the video of the song but color patterns or icons depicting something related.
At some point Keith lets each of his bandmembers do a solo, which also meant singing from both his guitar player and bass player. He also has this custom led guitar that lights up in different colors.
As he was brought for an encore, Keith pointed out a little girl with a sign about him. He brought her on stage, read her sign, autographed it and hugged her. The crowd went wild and I would expect a lot more signs in Keith Urban concerts. An amazing show. I would recommend you try to catch Keith’s tour the next time it comes near you.
Taylor Swift is expected to take the stage as the headliner on Saturday, July 10th.

UNIFEM is on the move!
UN WOMEN
UN Creates New Structure for Empowerment of Women
2 JULY 2010 | PRESS RELEASES
UNITED NATIONS PRESS RELEASE
For immediate release
United Nations, New York, 2 July 2010 — In an historic move, the United Nations General Assembly voted unanimously today to create a new entity to accelerate progress in meeting the needs of women and girls worldwide.
The establishment of the UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women — to be known as UN Women — is a result of years of negotiations between UN Member States and advocacy by the global women’s movement. It is part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact.
“I am grateful to Member States for having taken this major step forward for the world’s women and girls,” said Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in a statement welcoming the decision. “UN Women will significantly boost UN efforts to promote gender equality, expand opportunity, and tackle discrimination around the globe.”
UN Women merges and will build on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system which focus exclusively on gender equality and women’s empowerment:
Division for the Advancement of Women (DAW, established in 1946)
International Research and Training Institute for the Advancement of Women (INSTRAW, established in 1976)
Office of the Special Adviser on Gender Issues and Advancement of Women (OSAGI, established in 1997)
United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM, established in 1976)
“I commend the leadership and staff of DAW, INSTRAW, OSAGI and UNIFEM for their commitment to the cause of gender equality; I will count on their support as we enter a new era in the UN’s work for women,” said Secretary-General Ban. “I have made gender equality and the empowerment of women one of my top priorities — from working to end the scourge of violence against women, to appointing more women to senior positions, to efforts to reduce maternal mortality rates,” he noted.
Over many decades, the UN has made significant progress in advancing gender equality, including through landmark agreements such as the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women. Gender equality is not only a basic human right, but its achievement has enormous socio-economic ramifications. Empowering women fuels thriving economies, spurring productivity and growth.
Yet gender inequalities remain deeply entrenched in every society. Women in all parts of the world suffer violence and discrimination, and are under-represented in decision-making processes. High rates of maternal mortality continue to be a cause for global shame. For many years, the UN has faced serious challenges in its efforts to promote gender equality globally, including inadequate funding and no single recognized driver to direct UN activities on gender equality issues.
Congrats to UN Women! The new organization is scheduled to be up and running by January 2011.
Another humanitarian we love is Queen Rania. If you don't already know she's had her own Youtube channel for some time. She's teamed up with Funny Or Die and made a video that will make you laugh and sends out a positive message. Such a difference from the doom and gloom attitude of the skeptics!
Happy Weekend everybody!
July 1, 2010
Yeah, That's EXACTLY What's
Going On Here Mimosa!

Mimosa: I kinda hope they keep it up. It's very entertaining to watch them make fools of themselves....especially since they seem to not have a clue. The harder they try...the funnier it is.
Meanwhile back at the Urban Myths Ranch.....
Tara: Most of the entire relationship is built on myth. I am glad everyone knew because back then no one knew anything. And the first spotting of her at a concert was in Buffalo - thats the first one that was talked about and that was in November of 05.
But Keith didn't play Buffalo and after Tara was told her stories are a load of bull....
hoosierlady: Let me off the chain,
I beg you,
Let me have the floor and don't hold me back.
I want my Urban Myths back the way it was, this isn't fun. I want my happy little fun world back, and this is just a huge bubble buster.
PLEASE LET ME HAVE HER
I won't ask for anything for Christmas, my birthday, or Valentine's day for 2 years.
I'll stop mumbling the f word while driving,
I need my Urban Myths at the end of a long day.
Please?
You are pleading to lie and be lied to. After 5 years that's no surprise at all.
