Petitoners to Warner Bros.: Drop Ben Affleck as Batman! >>Hollywood

Once again, Internet, like your issue with a censored kangaroo photo, please chill out.

A petition on Change.org is calling on Warner Bros. to reverse its decision and remove Ben Affleck as Batman, citing such problems with the actor as his Boston accent, his puny physique and his lack of intimation.

In part, the message reads:

His acting skill is not even close to being believable as Bruce Wayne and he won't do the role justice. He's not built, nor is he intimidating enough for the role of Batman. His portrayal of Daredevil was atrocious and he's not remotely close to an action star. Please find someone else.

The petition already have 10,000 signatures, while The White House's petition system has also fielded a request... to make it ILLEGAL for Affleck to don the famous cape and cod piece.

For real.

What do YOU think? Is this an overreaction? Sound off now: Is Ben Affleck a good choice as Batman?

 

Perfect choice!Decent choiceTerrible choice!

Chris Brown Gives Shout-Outs to L.A. Street Gang in Graffiti Art, on Twitter >>Hollywood

Chris Brown is raising eyebrows again, this time by giving a shout out to an L.A. street gang. Always a smart move whilst in the midst of controversy.

The crew earning props from Breezy? The Pirus, a subset of the Bloods.

The singer was in Honolulu Thursday, where he hired a guide to take him and his crew around to places on Oahu where he could legally spray paint.

Brown, as fans know, is a talented artist who often spray paints graffiti, legally. He removed it from the outside of his house after neighbors complained.

Anyway, in Hawaii, he tagged up his signature graffiti monster art with the phrase "Fruits Piru," a clear reference to the Fruit Town Piru gang ... followed by:

"F**k police."

The singer took his apparent Piru loyalties to new heights on Twitter, too, calling out Jay-Z for not letting wife Beyonce collaborate with him.

He's not worried about Jay, though, because he's got tight Blood ties.

Seriously. It's weird, because last year, he denied gang affiliations:

"I'm no gangbanger!" Brown wrote. "Where im from we say cuz, blood, folk, woadie, homie, patna, its slang and ebonics! US KIDS USE THESE TERMS."

Just to clarify, Brown showing love to a gang is not illegal, nor does it violate his probation. It's just not intelligent, one could argue, for myriad reasons.

Nor, one could also argue, is calling out a "racist" D.A. and "bitchass" legal system after you were given a do-over ... but that's Chris Brown for you.

At least we know what he'd dress in for a

Linda Ronstadt Diagnosed With Parkinson's Disease, Unable to Sing >>Hollywood

Linda Ronstadt has Parkinson's disease, a condition that has left her unable to perform.

The 67-year-old singer, who will publish her memoir, Simple Dreams, next month, revealed her debilitating condition Friday in an interview with AARP.

Linda Ronstadt Has Parkinson's Disease

She uses poles to assist with walking on uneven ground has been traveling with a wheelchair since being diagnosed with the neurological disorder.

That was eight months ago, though she began experiencing symptoms, including hand tremors and trouble controlling the muscles that let her sing, years ago.

She attributed her problems to residual effects of a tick bite and shoulder surgery.

"I think I've had it for seven or eight years already, because of the symptoms that I've had," the 11-time Grammy winner tells interviewer Alanna Nash.

"No one can sing with Parkinson's disease," she says. "No matter how hard you try."

Taylor Armstrong: Engaged to John Bluher! >>Hollywood

Two years after her estranged husband Russell committed suicide, Taylor Armstrong has found lasting love again. She's engaged to John Bluher!

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star's rep confirmed that she accepted his proposal at The St. Regis Punta Mita Resort, Mexico on Thursday.

Bluher popped the question to the Bravo star at sunset on the beach in a white tent filled with white roses and lilies, then celebrated with a lavish dinner.

"She never stopped smiling! it was an amazing evening, a ten all round!"

It will be the second marriage for Armstrong, as fans are well aware.

Taylor and Russell Armstrong, who had a volatile and at times combative relationship before he took his own life, had daughter Kennedy, now 6.

Taylor developed a drinking problem after his death, she admits.

"Thankfully, I had an amazing support system," she adds. "They helped me realize it was time for me to feel my emotions and let the healing begin."

Back in June, she called Bluher

While going ALL OUT on a huge swing suspended in her (or someone else's) home recently, the actress crashed to the floor after the thing collapsed.

The result was both terrifying and hilarious (since we know she's alright). Watch:
