THE BIG A&E NEWZ STORY THIS WEEK IS

Former Illinois Governor and reality show star Rod Blago javich was sentenced Wednesday in Chicago and got 14 years in prison on 18 corruption counts. He will have to report to prison on Feb. 16, 2012. He also must pay a $20,000 fine.

Blago who has spent three years loudly proclaiming his innocence of corruption charges in a book, on reality television and other venues, told the judge before his sentencing that he was "unbelievably sorry" for the crimes of which he has been convicted as he awaits sentencing.

He apologized to his family, his brother and one-time co-defendant and to the people of Illinois. However, in a carefully worded statement that appears designed to preserve the possibility of appeal, he specifically admitted guilt only to the crime of "stupidity."

"I am here convicted of crimes. I am accepting of it. I acknowledge it. And I am of course unbelievably sorry for it,"

Blagojevich told U.S. District Judge James Zagel during a 20-minute address to the court, according to reporters stationed in the Chicago court room who disseminated the comments via Twitter.

"I have nobody to blame but myself for my stupidity," Blagojevich said.

Blago must serve at least 85 percent of his sentence (or 10 years) in order to qualify for parole. He will be 64 when he is qualified in 2021.

Blagojevich is accused of attempting to auction off President Barack Obama's former U.S. Senate seat for cash or a federal appointment, along with other schemes. Prosecutors asked for a 15- to 20-prison sentence -- significantly stiffer than the 6-1/2-year term currently being served by former Illinois Gov. George Ryan for his own corruption conviction.

Well the final chapter of this three year story has come to a close. So who do you think will portray Blago in the TV movie? Pundits are saying that they wouldn’t be surprised, ironically enough, if President Obama, the person whos indirectly part of his getting sentenced, would pardon Blago. Hmm,stranger things have happened in political history. Remember President Gerald Ford’s pardoned Tricky Dick?





Talk show host Gayle King responded to the media about the rumors that theres beef between her and talk show maven Oprah Winfrey after her decision to depart from Oprah;s OWN and the letter talk show host Wendy Williams read on her talk show recently that King claims did not come from Winfrey.

After Williams read a letter she claimed was from Oprah Winfrey on-air, the subject of said correspondence, Gayle King, said it wasn't even real.

"I know Oprah never wrote a letter to Wendy," King told radio host Tom Joyner on Friday's Black America Web.

The letter, as Williams said, came from Oprah's "people" to say she was happy from King's upcoming move from the Oprah Winfrey Network to CBS's revamped talk show CBS This Morning. She said she signed in "Love Oprah."

King said she knew her friend probably hadn't reached out to Williams, but she called her just to clarify. "I said, 'I'm getting all these messages that you wrote a letter to Wendy,'" King said. "She goes, 'Gayle, you know more than anybody knows that that's not true.'"

Quite to the contrary or rumors that Oprah was upset by her friend and employee's new job, King says Oprah helped her decide.

"When this opportunity was presented to me -- and make no mistake, it is an opportunity -- the first people I talked to were Oprah, my son and my daughter," she said. "'[Oprah] said, 'Are you kidding? This is so what you do, the news is what you love... you would be crazy to pass it up."

Hmm interesting that Gayle talked to Oprah first then her family on her decision. Bottom line is this: a letter was sent out as Williams mentioned on TomJoyner’s show that same morning. Whether Oprah signed it or ,someone from Oprah’s camp sent it. So the WORDS TO THE WHYZ question is,”Why is Gayle making it a big deal about a PR laced statement that wishes her well?” We would think she would be more concerned if the letter was against her leaving and negative. Okay?






Although Chicago bred rap superstar Kanye West is the leader in next year’s Grammy nominations (with seven) music critics are still shocked that West did not receive an Album of the Year nomination for either his masterpiece”My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” nor his collab “Watch The Throne” with Jay Z . Even more shocking is Ye himself not ranting about it.,

West remains silent on regarding the snub), but spoke out at a recent concert in Chicago.

“Something I figured out early today – because you know, everybody came up to me (last night) like, ‘Congratulations!’ because you know I’m leading the Grammy nominations this year. Like we always do it this time,” he said. “But, people focus, they say ‘You ain’t got album of the year or record of the year.’ But I figured out, that’s my fault for dropping Watch the Throne and Dark Fantasy the same year. I should have just spaced it out a little bit more.”

“But don’t worry, because me and Hov gon’ keep on making shit,” he continued.

West’s “All of the Lights” is nominated for song of the year, best rap/sung collaboration and best rap song. His My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is nominated for best rap album. Together, West and Jay-Z share nominations for best rap performance and best rap song for “Otis,” as well as best rap album for Watch the Throne.

Hmm, we guess Ye is doing what was the inevitable—growing up.






Newly Chicagoan talk show host Rosie O'Donnell surprised fans on Monday when she announced that she and girlfriend Michelle Rounds were getting married over the Christmas holiday.

But it turns out that O'Donnell moved even faster than that to snag her bride!

O'Donnell, 49, explained on The Rosie Show Tuesday that she and NYC headhunter Rounds got engaged "a few months ago." The comic and Rounds went public with their romance in September.




2012 Grammy Award nominee and Oak Park, Ill native comedian Kathy Griffin did a spread recently in Out Magazine where the LGBT rights actress appears topless -- though her breasts are covered up courtesy of "Modern Family" star Jesse Tyler Ferguson

The comedienne daringly stripped off for Outmagazine to recreate Janet Jackson's 1993 iconic topless Rolling Stone cover, with Ferguson cupping her breasts.

The fun-loving picture is part of the magazine's annual Out 100, a list of the most influential men and women in the LGBT community, and each of the celebrities were asked to mimic their favorite famous photos.

According to Out, the pair “couldn't stop from clowning around” during the shoot, and afterwards Ferguson tweeted how his hands would “never be the same.”

Affton, Mo native actor John Goodman had a rant recently about Hollywood . During a recent interview, Goodman totally SLAMMED both current AND classic Hollywood:

"There was a lot of baloney back then (when movies were first being made) too, most of it hasn’t survived, unfortunately." "The crap progresses age to age. But it’s all the same." Goodman is receiving rave reviews for the Spirit Award nominated silent movie "The Artist" that is being released nationwide Dec 16.

Plainfield,Ill native and Emmy Award winning actress Melissa McCarthy has revealed that her body is a "work in progress".

The plus-sized star said that her battle against her weight is a constant one, and she plans to keep slowly chipping away at it.

"I've been up and down," the 41 year-old said during an appearance on “Anderson.” "I've been much thinner since my second baby. I'm still working on it. It's a work in progress. "I hope I wake up at, like, 94 pounds. But I don't think that's going to happen. There's so many other things to worry about. I still worry about it, but I think, my kids are healthy, I've got a great husband, and I go to work every day and do what I want. "I'll keep working on [my body]. I just can't put any time to worrying about it."



St Louis native singer/keyboardist Michael Mcdonald will be releasing two CDs at the end of 2011-- one with the guitarist Robben Ford and the other with his son Dylan.

Rather than go through a traditional label, McDonald intends to make tracks available through social media and then decide what tack to take.

The tracks are recorded in Los Angeles and Nashville with Ford, a longtime friend.

"Robben and I started impulsively," McDonald told Billboard.com. "It's a very eclectic collection of songs. Our energies are focused on writing songs -- not necessarily blues and nothing specific (genre-wise). We think it's good but we don't know if it's cohesive enough in a conceptual sense to make an album of it or to release track by track. I'm kind of confused about what to do with it."


McDonald's project with his son Dylan McDonald includes a collections of covers -- songs by Bob Marley, the Beach Boys, Radiohead and Stealer's Wheel -- a couple of Dylan's songs and an original penned by Michael McDonald. He expects to finish mixing the tracks by the end of the year and will post them online as well.

Chicago-based director Steve James received some good news Monday when he was awarded a $50,000 grant from United States Artists, a nonprofit organization that contributes no-strings-attached financial support to American artists.This was the third time he was nominated .Best known for his 1994 documentary “Hoop Dreams,” James most recent film The Interrupters,which Tribune film critic Michael Phillips gave a top-rated four stars, focuses on the efforts of a small group of violence “interrupters” who aim to reduce the frequency of gang-related assaults in Chicago-area neighborhoods.

THE BIG STL STORY THIS WEEK IS:

As of this writing, it will be revealed if free agent baseball superstar Albert Pujols will sign back with the St Louis Cardinals, sign a new deal with the Miami Marlins or with the Los Angeles Angels.

According to reports Pujols agent is seeking a deal that could be worth $200 million or more over 10 years.

"I know the ownership group is putting their best foot forward and trying to do everything that they can to make this possible," new Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said, "but I also know it's a complicated decision on both sides. There's a lot going on, a lot that I'm not even involved in, but I think it's clear to say that the St. Louis Cardinals would love to have Albert, and we'll see how it all plays out."

With the Angels, Pujols could take over at first base from Mark Trumbo, who is recovering from a stress fracture in his right foot and could be shifted to third.

"He's become a very proficient first baseman, and hopefully that comfort level, catching a ground ball and the activities you need to play there will translate over to third base," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said

The latest was the Marlins had already did their trade offs and Pujols may not be signing with the organization. We are now convinced that Pujols is going to sign back with the Cardinals as predicted by KTRS radio personality JC Cochran before his temporary suspension on the “sourced hunch.”

UPDATE:Pujols signs with the Los Angeles Angelsfor$250/60million for 10years.Let the debate begin.LOL

We think STL photographer Kevin Jordan said it best on the influx of Cards fans who are hating on Pujols leaving. He said “I'm confused....tell me again why some of you are mad at Pujols and not the Cardinals? I mean if they really wanted to keep him, they would have gotten his deal done before last season started, or better yet before they signed Holiday to all that money. So the Angels give him the big contract and he's supposed to say no, when the Cards didn't show interest until the Marlins made a play earlier this week. Man, miss me with that bull ish!!! Get your money Pujols!!!”

YES we agree!


In unrelated Pujols newz, the Pujols Family Foundation's 7th Annual O'Night Divine' Christmas Celebration was held at the Chase Park Plaza on Saturday. Spotted were Pujols himself and his wife Deidre, Cards legend Stan Musial, his grandson son, Brian Schwarze (PICTURED and photo courtesy of stltoday).

According to Dec Peterson of stltoday: More than 650 guests joined Albert and Deidre Pujols to celebrate the work of their foundation to benefit children with downs syndrome. While talk of the slugger's future in baseball was the undercurrent, it only surfaced in private conversations and some jokes by emcee McGraw Milhaven.

Like this one regarding the hapless Chicago Cubs: "If Albert signs with the Cubs, we can schedule this dinner for the month of October."

Also there were reality show stars Robbie Montgomery, owner of Sweetie Pie's, her son Tim Norman and his love, Lady Jenae, of "Welcome to Sweetie Pie's"

Other A-listers included Mike Matheny, Lou Brock, Al Hrabosky, Aeneas Williams, Kerry Robinson, John Mabry, Jason Simontacchi, Brian Jordan, Ryan "the Irish outlaw" Coyne ,Don Mattingly of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Meadowlark Lemon from the Harlem Globetrotters.





Tim McCarver, an All-Star catcher who discovered a second career as a folksy announcer known for explaining the game in exacting detail, won the Hall of Fame's Ford C. Frick Award for broadcasting excellence on Wednesday.

McCarver will be honored in Cooperstown during the induction weekend in late July. McCarver made his major league debut in 1959. Fast for a catcher - he once led the NL in triples - he became a two-time All-Star and helped the St. Louis Cardinals win a pair of World Series championships



In unrelated news, earlier this week, Chicago Cubs third baseman Ron Santo was also elected to the Hall a year after his death

St Louis Rams Quarterback Sam Bradford aggravated his left ankle injury again since last week against Arizona.

"It's definitely gone back to the first couple weeks after the injury," Bradford said Sunday, after sitting out the Rams' 26-0 loss to San Francisco. "I knew I had hurt it (against Arizona), but I didn't know how bad. I think going through Wednesday's practice I realized how severely I tweaked it again."

According to reports, Bradford barely practiced last Wednesday and Friday last week and didn't practice at all last Thursday. He did take part in couple of plays during last Saturday's walk-through but was walking with a limp all week, including Sunday morning when he got onto the bus for the ride from the team hotel to Candlestick Park.

"I went in with the mentality that I was going to start today," Bradford said. "But Coach (Steve) Spagnuolo pulled me aside and told me he had made the decision that it probably wasn't in my best interest to be on the field today."

The Rams’ hope is , with the extra day with the Monday night game (in Seattle) coming up next week, that he'll be healthy and ready to go.







According to stltoday.com, a horseshoe from an Anheuser-Busch Clydesdale arrived this week as a gift and rests in its box on new Cardinals manager Mike Matheny's desk (Photo courtesy of stltoday) , one of the scarce personal touches he's added to the office at Busch Stadium.

The manager's office reportedly has been repainted but not yet redecorated. Gone are the loaded bookshelves and columns of fiction on the floor. The walls now are barren. The sofa has been relocated. A Blues jersey with Matheny's No. 22 hangs on an emptied bookshelf. He brought in his own small coffee machine.

As he prepares to leave for his first winter meetings Matheny has reportedly spent most of the past few weeks surveying the club, canvassing the staff and opening lines of conversation.

Shortly after he was introduced as the Cardinals' manager on Nov. 14, Matheny reportedly brought six of his personal advisers, all local businessmen, into his empty office to discuss how he should transition into the new job, his first managing job at any level.
