After perusing about ten websites, I discovered that only the most well known celebrities that are already dead, have been placed on a list of celebrities having been born in Buffalo, New York.
The lists were very much the same, looking like the website writers and bloggers were copying each other's information. I created a better top ten celebrities born in Buffalo, New York list:
1.Lucille Ball, was born in 1911, in Jamestown , New York. She became a famous actress, having her own TV show. "I Love Lucy."Ball became famous for her comedy routines, acting abilities, actually starting her career as a model. She died back in 1989, from an aneurysm.
2. Super freak, Rick James, who became a hit making super freaky machine in the late 1970's and 1980's had a major drug addiction problem and died from a host of health problems in 2,004. He grew up in Buffalo, New York, and died in California, and is buried in Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo.
3.Diane English was a writer and creator of the hit TV series, "Murphy Brown."
4. Nancy Marchand, also born in Buffalo, New York, went on to star in movies, including playing Tony Soprano's mother, in the HBO award winning TV series, "The Sopranos." She died in 2,000.
5. CNN Journalist Wolf Blitzer was born in Buffalo, New York. Wolf went on to make a career out of telling news stories for a living. Blitzer has been giving us the news from the CNN studios, and currently is hosting a CNN show called, The situation Room.
6. Wendie Matlick was born in Buffalo, New York in 1950. Wendie Matlick is one of the four reigning female stars of the hit comedy TV show, "Hot in Cleveland."
7. Johnny Rzeznik was born in 1965, into a Polish family, becoming an orphan by the age of 16. He is the lead singer for the Goo Goo Dolls, who have had hit songs named, "Iris,", "Name," and "Slide".
8. Have to name this guy, when talking about famous people from Buffalo, New York; Robby Takac. Robby was born in 1963, and he is the bass player for The Goo Goo Dolls. Robby does not act like a star, currently residing in South Buffalo.
9. Christine Baranski is also an actress, who has shown great promise in her roles. She starred as Cybil Shepard's best friend, in "Cybil", and as the Grinch's girlfriend, in the classic cartoon redone as a movie, "The Grinch." You may have noticed she plays a great dysfunctional mom on the Big Bang Theory!
10. Amanda Blake was born in Buffalo New York in 1929. Blake was best known for her starring role in the hit TV series, "Gunsmoke, " as Miss Kitty. Blake died in 1989 from AIDS-related complications. At the time of her death, she also had throat cancer.Copyright 2012, written by Kate Johns, a talented writer who started writing professionally in 2004!

Thoughts on Demi Moore Ashton Kutcher Divorce by Kate Johns
I have to say something about the Ashton Kutcher- Demi Moore breakup.
I'm disgusted.
How's that for an opinion? Makes you think they only got married for the publicity, now doesn't it?
Demi Moore has been married three times, her longest lasting married so far to Bruce Willis. Marriage to Demi, only lasted six years for Ashton Kutcher.
This leads to regular people like you and I who are not millionaires, who work hard for our money, yes so hard for it honey, that big name stars only get married in the first place to further their careers. We regular, non-millionaire types work hard, and can really only afford to get married once, perhaps twice. We can't afford to cavort around famous night clubs partying the night away. We can't afford to de-stress from our horrid lives of non-work by lying about a beach while a staff of many waits on our every whim.
Nope. And that's why I am so disgusted with Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. They got married for the publicity. She was born in 1962, which means she is 49. and he was born in 1978, meaning he is much younger than she is. What is the age difference, about 16 years?
When they got married six entire years ago, many people were saying she was a cougar, taking in a younger man to prove herself still young, beautiful and full of magical potions stunning a young stud like Ashton.
But what really disgusts me is that this keeps happening. Hollywood types keep getting married, and get divorced in, oh let's say 72 days. Why do they get married at all? Why don't they just stay single and live together? This way, there is no division of assets. Wait a minute, if they just live together won't that mean less publicity?
To become a big name star you have to be willing to go the distance. You have to live life out on the edge. You have to live life like there's no tomorrow.In other words, you have to party like it's 1999. You must see and be seen---that's how a star keeps up the image, connections, and the publicity hounds at bay.
Can't the publicity seeking Hollywood types do something else to get publicity, creating good promotional campaigns besides getting married? How about starting a new business? How about volunteering to create better lives for non-rich types? Why can't their publicity people think of another way to get major publicity for their stars, besides getting hitched, and then summarily divorced?
Maybe wealthy Hollywood types could start out doing Lady Gaga dressing in odd outfits, with strange haircuts, or posing naked in some major magazine.
I'm disgusted.

The Top Five Most Obnoxious Celebrities of 2012, or The OH NO Awards by Kate Johns
Imagine a glittering array of stars gathered at an old, renovated theatre in California. Stretch your imagination even further thinking of perhaps someone with a great sense of humor such as Eddie Murphy, or Ellen De Generes, or perhaps the guy from talk Soup, Joel Mc Hale handing out the awards to the star studded celebration of the most obnoxious celebrity awards.
Screw it, we will just call it the OH NO Awards for short. I have compiled a short list of names of the most obnoxious celebrities for the year 2012. By the way, this was an easy list to create. First, because it is a short list, just five celebrities. And second because it was literally so easy to think of five celebrities that are so obnoxious right off the top of my head.
Without further ado, and with a drumroll,-----
The Top Five Most Obnoxious Celebrities of 2012; the OH NO Awards-------
1. Without a doubt the number one OH NO award has to be given to Kim Kardashian. She divorced her husband, Kris Humphries after just 72 days. Then, she couldn't keep her commitments, leaving Australia to go home to California, (to receive her OH NO, of course),and hide from the speculative, and quite possibly shocked media. Continually fending off the press and answering questions like, "Do you think you really gave your marriage your all Kim?" Next in line could be her mom, Kris, for pushing her book about the Kardashians the week this incredible news broke. But, she's not, (this time). Kind of makes me think of Heidi Klum sitting near the lit runway on her reality TV show saying in her German accent, "You will either be in or you will be out."
2. Lindsay Lohan is next on the most obnoxious celebrities list because she has been in court so many times this year. She's been in court so many times this year, that she is now more famous for going to court, facing seriously short jail terms, than she is for the movies she has starred in , such as "Mean Girls." But seriously folks, Lindsay needs to get her act together, because at just 25 years old, she's looking older than her age suggests, and she probably needs to make money to make bail.
3. The next OH NO award goes to--------Lady Gaga. Had to put her in the number three spot, not because she did or wore anything super outrageous this year, but remember that horrible meat dress episode? Even though Lady Gaga, who is 27, sells albums like crazy and totally rocks it, she is obnoxious. Lady Gaga is a younger version of Madonna who will do anything for instant fame, including wearing strange hats, meat dresses, and messing with our heads, as to what her exact sexuality really is.
4. Ke$ha is way over the top obnoxious. Ke$ha compeltely embodies the OH NO awards, because she makes almost every mom say, "Oh no", whenever they see her! But sorry to say, there's only room for one celeb at the top of the OH NO awards. Ke$ha is just plain and simply obnoxious. She only wears long shirts, sans the pants. Her songs are truly meant for pop radio because they are so pop-like, but without any talent. Come on even Betty White can pick up a mike and sing to auto tune, making her sound like a hot songstress.
5. Tom Cruise has really toned it down this year. But, I just can't get that image out of my head of Tom jumping on Oprah's couch on TV acting all crazy! Even though, Tom Cruise looks great for his age, 49, by the way, he starred in the movie, "Rock of Ages," and I'm thinking he is too old to be starring in a movie about a rock star. Or is that the point; an older actor portraying an aging, but still in shape singer? Tom Cruise just strikes me as being too much of a poser. He doesn't seem to live life, he just has to be the center of attention.
There they are---the five most obnoxious celebrities for 2012. Can't wait to see who will be the top five OH-NO, most obnoxious celebrities of 2013! Copyright 2011, written by Kate Johns a freelance writer, who started her career writing greeting card sayings in 2004!

Kim Kardashian should star on reality TV dating show by Kate Johns
I've got a great idea! Why doesn't Kim Kardashian star on one of those dating reality TV shows?
At first I thought of this as a joke, but in reality, it does seem Kim needs dating/relationship help.
Hello-----her marriage only lasted for 72 days! That's still not as short as the what was it 72 hours Britney Spears was married to an old high school flame, but it still does count.
Yes, Kim K, needs dating help. Currently on TV there are numerous reality TV dating shows, one is called, "Millionaire Matchmaker", another is, "Why am I still single?"
These two reality TV shows are funny, startling, blunt, and sometimes these two TV shows do help single people find their future spouses.
So what does dating help have to do with Kim Kardashian?
It has everything to do with Kim. She obviously needs help making comittments, living with soemone else, and sharing. Kim needs help realizing that marriage is a serious thing, not to be laughed off as a publicity stunt.
Seriously, I am being serious with this blog post.
Kim needs an expert to help her find a man who can handle being in a relationship with her. Kim K. also is a millionaire who can call the shots, do what she wants and has people at her beckon, booty loving call.
Unless, Kim K. wants to spend an eternity living alone, with paid lackeys doing her bidding, she needs to find relationship help or therapy, (there's another reality TV show, Dr. Drew), right now.
Besides if she starred on a relationship reality TV show, then Kim stands to gain more respect from her core reality TV show audience. Gaining more publicity, Kim would make more millions to add to her overstuffed coffers.

Kim Kardashian divorce no real surprise by Kate Johns
With the recent news that Kim Kardashian's super quickie marriage ended in divorce after just 72 days, we regular human beings really should not be surprised. Kim Kardashian is not known for her strong moral character. She made a sex tape, suddenly skyrocketed into instant fame.
It should come as no real surprise to any of us mere mortals, who have not starred on a reality TV show, that Kim and Kris Humphries are getting a divorce. The only person who seems to be surprised by all this is Kris himself, who found out he was getting a divorce when he heard it in the media. I kind of, feel sorry for the former basketball player . How would you like to find out you're getting a divorce on TV, or seeing your spouse's name emblazoned on a well known website such as TMZ, or Yahoo?
The entire Kardashian clan is truly not known to be a talented bunch. The Kardashian's have not written poetry, books, or famous hit songs, that we know of. They have not starred in movies, or made money the old fashioned way, by working "real jobs." The Kardashians really have only starred in three reality TV shows. Their mother, Kris, is the Kardashian clan's manager and has been managing her kids into the stratosphere of money making reality TV history.Guessing, their mom, Kris is the talent-- laden member of the family.
After many comments of the specifics of Kim's divorce filing Halloween morning, I came to the conclusion that many other people also think the Kardashian's are an untalented bunch. "money hungry ho," and "sex tape star," were bantered about.
Therefore, it really should come as no surprise to anyone that Kim Kardashian is getting a divorce after just 72 days of marriage. But what gets me is that with Kim getting a divorce after a super short marriage, what message does this send to impressionable young people? Millions of people watch the Kardashian reality TV shows. Millions of young women, and young girls think life is supposed to be this way. After watching The Kardashian's TV shows, and also other reality TV shows, anyone would think that life is meant to be an easy one of not going to college, not working a job, but starring in sex tapes, and making bad rap songs are everyones' claim to fame.
Possibly if we regular people stop watching the Kardashian's TV shows, and we do not buy their clothing lines, or colognes, then they will quietly disappear. Copyright 2011, written by Kate Johns a talented freelance writer who started her career creating greeting card sayings in 2004.

Kim Kardashian files for divorce Halloween morning by Kate Johns
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! Kim Kardashian only married Kris Humphries to get major publicity to make more money. The proof is in the pudding!
How do I know this? Kim filed for divorce from her hubby of 72 days, Halloween morning.
Of course, the official reason is irreconcilable differences. The unofficial reason is because Kim and Kris couldn't figure out where they would live.This is of course all according to TMZ.
All I'm saying is a big, fat sarcastic----give me a break!!!
You mean to tell me Kim and Kris couldn't come to a happy conclusion about where they would live? How about compromising? I'm sorry but that's what we down to earth, regular people who are not millionaires do, we live in the same houses with our spouses because we usually can't afford to live in four different homes.
Now it is all crystal clear. Kim gets to keep the huge diamond ring of 20.5 carats. They spent a reported 10 million dollars on a wedding that was televised on The Kardashians reality TV show and the Kardashians were the talk of the town for weeks.
If this is absolutely true that Kim is divorcing Kris after only 72 days, I'm left wondering what major publicity stunt the Kardashians will pull next.What is left after having a sex tape, getting engaged on your reality TV show, marrying a pro-athelete on TV, and starting your own line of clothing?
Wait there's more---having Kris Jenner, Kim's mom appear on every major newsshow across America promoting her new book about who else----The Kardashians. Kris is telling everyone that Kim is a good role model for young girls,also saying Kim will be fine. What is happening is that Kris Jenner is doing damage control.

Madonna's brother is homeless by Kate Johns
Madonna the famous singer, songwriter, actress, and millionaire extrordinaire's older brother is homeless. Anthony Ciccione, 55 year old brother of Madonna, is living under a bridge in Traverse City, Michigan. Kate Johns wrote this article in 2011, and there was never any information of Madonna helping her brother find a home. you'd think with her millions she could buy her homeless brother a house to call his home.
Madonna's brother, Anthony Ciccone, who is 55, was working for Madonna's father, Silvio, who owns the Ciccione Vineyards in Michigan. Mr. Ciccione fired Anthony, and he soon realized he had no where to go but to the mean streets of Michigan.
Madonna's current personal wealth is estimated at an astounding 650 million dollars. Madonna has sold just shy of 200 million records,and she has starred in many movies, including Evita, Shangai Surprise, and Desperately Seeking Susan.
But, her brother Anthony, the oldest of the six Ciccione children is currently living under a bridge.
Madonna owns at least three homes in the United States and one in the United Kingdom.
Ciccione says he collects cans ,bottles and works odd jobs to make money. He also says that is it very cold living on the streets of Michigan, where Madonna was born and raised.
Madonna has enjoyed a long lasting career of creating pop hits for the last thirty years, and currently is 53 years old.
Maybe the Material Girl will allow her older brother to live in one of her homes, or buy him a home to live in.
