THE SCORE
GOOGLE NEWS HITS + GOOGLE BLOG HITS = THE SCORE
Tired of "fictional articles about my private life," Hugh Grant won libel damages from a London tabloid publisher. But wags seized on the baked beans he allegedly hurled at a shutterbug the same week. Says blogsite SWANKY BEAST: "Maybe they were going bad and he was just going to throw them out anyway." SCORE: 2,373
Having already auctioned Kurt Cobain's diaries, rock widow Courtney Love is selling her deceased husband's personal effects. She told SPINNER.COM, "I still wear his pajamas ... How am I ever going to go form another relationship in my lifetime wearing Kurt's pajamas?" Actually, that sounds like a great conversation starter. SCORE: 680
Australian Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews has refused to allow rapper and ex-felon Snoop Dogg into Oz. "He doesn't seem the sort of bloke we want in this country," Andrews told local radio. Thus Down Under remains a peaceable haven for gentler souls like Russell Crowe and Mel Gibson. SCORE: 511
Art and Paris Hilton have collided, and the results aren't pretty. New York City artist Daniel Edwards, creator of a similarly taste-free Britney-giving-birth statue, has created Paris Hilton Autopsy, complete with removable organs. Blogsite DEFAMER wonders if the heiress "is presently savoring the prospects of long lines of East Coast [art] connoisseurs waiting patiently for their turn to handle her petrified innards." SCORE: 318
Shocker: Kanye West, as an adolescent, liked porn. His mother will reveal as much in an upcoming book that the NEW YORK POST has giddily excerpted: "I'll never forget the day he took the X-rated magazine to school [and] was passing it around for the other boys to see, and the teacher caught him." SCORE: 58
