Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Wants to Enter Politics

Pro wrestler-turned-actor told Moviefone during a recent interview that he has definite plans to enter politics at some point, and that his ambitions could reach all the way to the White House.

“Right now the best way that I can impact the world is through entertainment. One day, and that day will come, I can impact the world through politics,” Johnson — whose latest film, “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island,” opens Friday — tells the site. “The great news is that I am American, therefore I can become President.”

Johnson would follow a path set by fellow former pro wrestler Jesse Ventura, who served as the governor of Minnesota.

The Rock got some practice performing presidential duties, playing President Barack Obama on “Saturday Night Live.”

J.C. Penny Sticks with Ellen DeGeneres Despite Opposition

Despite the opposition, J.C. Penny stuck in there with Ellen DeGeneres.

The comedian/talk show host expressed her gratitude and excitement that the company continued with their new campaign.

She said she’s “proud and happy” that the store stood by her side and said there is no such thing as a “pro-gay bandwagon,” as alleged by the One Million Moms group which encouraged the retail store to drop DeGeneres.

“They (One Million Moms) wanted to get me fired and I am proud and happy to say that J.C. Penney stuck by their decision to make me their spokesperson,” she said.

The group made up of conservative Americans claimed that J.C. Penny was trying to target a new group by “jumping on the pro-gay bandwagon.”

“Being gay or pro-gay isn’t a bandwagon. You don’t get a free ride anywhere. There’s no music. And occasionally we’ll sing ‘We Are Family’ but that’s about it,” she said.

CNN’s Roland Martin Agrees to Meet with GLAAD

CNN commentator Roland Martin says he will meet with GLAAD following his suspension Wednesday for tweets during the Super Bowl that the group deemed homophobic.

Calling Martin’s tweets “regrettable and offensive,” CNN said Martin would “not be appearing on our air for the time being.” Martin later said on Twitter that he would meet with GLAAD, as the group had requested, after he apologized Tuesday for the Super Bowl tweets.

“I look forward to meeting with GLAAD in the near future and having a productive dialogue,” he tweeted.

The group tweeted back, “We look forward to a productive dialogue and to working together as well.”

The hubbub began Sunday with two of Martin’s tweets that GLAAD said seemed to advocate violence against gays.

“If a dude at your Super Bowl party is hyped about David Beckham’s H&M underwear ad, smack the ish out of him!” he said in one tweet. In the other, he said, “Who the hell was that New England Patriot they just showed in a head to toe pink suit? Oh, he needs a visit from #teamwhipdatass.”

Martin later apologized, saying he did not advocate violence against gays or bullying. He also said he himself had been bullied.

To signal that he took the issue seriously, Martin also reported on Wednesday about Brandon White, a 20-year-old gay man who was viciously beaten by a gang of men shouting anti-gay slurs in Atlanta.

Details of Martin’s meeting with GLAAD are still being determined, the group said.

4-Year Low for Unemployment Benefit Claims

The LA Times is reporting that the number of Americans seeking unemployment aid fell to nearly a four-year low last week, an encouraging sign of continued improvement in the job market.

The Labor Department says weekly applications for unemployment benefits fell 15,000 to a seasonally adjusted 358,000. That’s the second-lowest level since April 2008.

The four-week average, a less volatile measure, fell to 366,250, the lowest since late April 2008.

When applications fall consistently below 375,000, it usually signals that hiring is strong enough to lower the unemployment rate.

Chairman, 3 others out in Yahoo board shake-up

Yahoo Chairman Roy Bostock and three longtime board members are stepping down, submitting to the demands of many frustrated shareholders who blame them for not fixing the problems dragging down the Internet company’s revenue and stock price. The shake-up announced Tuesday continues a drastic makeover of Yahoo’s leadership during the past month as the company negotiates to sell its Asian assets in a complex deal that could help ignite a long-promised turnaround. Bringing in new directors to work with Thompson will “provide Yahoo with the expertise and perspectives necessary to drive innovation and growth,” Bostock wrote in a letter Tuesday announcing his plans. Hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb, who controls a 5.2 percent stake in Yahoo, had been threatening to nominate an alternate slate of directors if Yahoo didn’t overhaul its board. Bostock became so unpopular among shareholders that nearly 40 percent of the votes were cast against his re-election in Yahoo’s first annual meeting after Microsoft withdrew its takeover offer.

Reality Show – Kim Zolciak, & Kandi Burress

Another reality show in the works is the Real Preachers’ Wives of Atlanta. The show will air on TLC. Meanwhile, changes are coming to the real housewives of Atlanta. Khandi Burress and Kim Zolciak are leaving the show to star in their own spinoffs. I hear Keshia Knight Pulliam (“Rudy” from The Cosby Show) may be joining the cast when the new season starts. In other reality show news, don’t look for Vanessa Bryant to star in any. The ex-Mrs. Kobe Bryant was offered a lot of money by VH1 to star in a show, but she turned them down saying shows about players wives are not her style.
