Rosie’s love side is getting a bit more creative.

Rosie was spotted in Miami last Tuesday with a Texas-based artist and single mother, Tracy Kachtick-Anders. Rosie has confirmed to People magazine that the two are indeed dating and that they first met when Tracy contacted Rosie on her blog asking her if she wanted to trade art.

This new dash of love comes after Rosie denied the complete end of her five year marriage with Kelli Carpenter, claiming that they were still working things out–even though Kelli had indeed moved out two years ago.

Tracy is the mother of six children, ranging from the ages of 5 to 17.

Real Housewives Deal with Grave Matter

Kandi Burruss’s ex-fiance to be exhumed

The death of Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss’s ex-fiance A.J. Jewell in October is still inconclusive according to medical examiners. It was first reported that Jewell died after blunt force trauma to the head during a fight with another man in a strip club parking lot in Atlanta. But now medical examiners are claming that an underlying condition may have been the cause of Jewell’s death.

Georgia officials have agreed to exhume the body of Burruss’s ex-fiance in order to find a more conclusive cause of his death after a medical examiner reported that Jewell’s death may have been caused by sickle-cell anemia.

Yet the statements being made by the examiners doesn’t seem to be all in the family–relatives are pushing for a second autopsy because they do not believe that Jewell had sickle-cell anemia and they feel that something else may have been caused his death.

A letter from Ralph Lauren said, “We’re terminating your services because you don’t fit into the sample clothes that you need to wear.”

23 year-old model Filippa Hamilton claims that she had recently been let go by Ralph Lauren because she was too fat to fit into their clothing. She said that she considered the designer and his company her second family and had been working for Ralph Lauren since she was 15.

An extremely photoshopped ad of Hamilton has also sparked critique over the web–the photo shows a model whose head is bigger than her waist.

But the company denies that this was ever the reason in a their public statement:

For over 42 years we have built a brand based on quality, integrity and a wholesome American lifestyle. Filippa Hamilton is a beautiful and healthy woman that we have worked closely with for over 6 years and we consider her an important part of our imaging and branding.

Obama wins the Gold

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.” -President Barack Obama

No doubt he could have outdid someone in a race or a game of ball, but that wasn’t the case for Obama’s victory last week. The 44th President of the United States received the Nobel Peace Prize for his ability to inspire hope.

According to the five member Nobel Committee, Mr. Obama was awarded the prize for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples”. The President beat out 205 other nominees in the running including Zimbabwe’s prime minister.

President Obama doesn’t only get a pretty gold medal–the laureate also receives a diploma and $1.4 million.

Yet some people believe that he doesn’t warrant this award with his less than 1 year in office. What do you think? Sound off.
