If you are anything like me, you like to catch celebrities at their best and their worst. What do you do though if magazines like The Star and The National Enquirer do nothing but bore you? You can do what I do, and that is turn to TMZ.

 

 

TMZ has quickly become a main source for catching up with celebrity news. You can think of it as celebrity gossip meets semi-twisted humor. TMZ TV is on 5 days a week with the latest news on celebrities captured from the night before. The show itself features either pictures submitted or video captured by TMZ and occasionally by 'rogue' photographers/videographers, followed by brief comments and commentary from the staff at TMZ. The format is very fast paced and entertaining, often poking fun and making celebrities more 'real' (hence their tagline "You make them stars. We make them real"). The show is extremely well known even amongst celebrities, who often add their own off-beat comments about being featured on TMZ and 'calling out' to various members of the TMZ staff. TMZ's website also is highly regarded as the most up-to-date source for celebrity news, and is in a great looking format that is easy to navigate and entertaining, with video, pictures, and stories that can keep you glued to your screen for hours on end.

 

 

You have a lot of choices when you want to catch up with celebrity news. You can stick with the boring sources like The Star and The National Enquirer, or you can do what I do and enjoy the new, exciting source for celebrity news. You can check out TMZ online at http://www.tmz.com and you can also check there to find out where and when TMZ TV is available in your area (here in Chicago, it's currently on Fox at 4:30AM, 5:30 PM and 11:35 PM).
