    Jennifer Aniston, Mayim Bialik Hilarious in Throwback Picture “Big Bang Theory” Star Shares

    Jennifer Aniston and Mayim Bialik appear in a recently posted throwback picture. The two girls are in Mayim Bialik’s bedroom–and they’re both really young.

    Not everyone knows that before Jennifer Aniston hit her fame and fortune as Rachel Green on Friends, she starred with Bialik in a show called Molloy. It was even back before Mayim Bialik became a star on Blossom.

    “Yes this is me and Jennifer Aniston in my childhood bedroom. We did a show together before I did “Blossom.” #tbt !!!” the Big Bang Theory star captioned the photo on Thursday.

    While both ladies have grown up a lot since this photo was taken, there’s no mistaking either Jennifer Aniston or Mayim Bialik in the shot. They both have very unique physical characteristics that are still easy to recognize today.

    Molloy was only on TV for seven episodes back in 1990, airing on the Fox network. Mayim Bialik played a very grown-up 11-year-old forced to move in with her bratty stepsister–Jennifer Aniston–when her dad remarried.

    Fans are no doubt enjoying a few laughs after seeing this throwback picture–at both Jennifer Aniston and Mayim Bialik’s expense.

  • ‘Big Bang Theory’ Actress Succumbs to Cancer

    The Big Bang Theory has lost one of its own. Actress Carol Ann Susi, known as the voice of Mrs. Wolowitz–Howard’s (played by Simon Helberg) mother on the CBS show, lost her battle with cancer on Tuesday. Although her voice was always heard and frequently imitated, Carol Ann Susi’s face was never seen on the show. She was a regular Big Bang Theory cast member since 2007.

    According to a report from the Hollywood Reporter, Susi grew up in Brooklyn and moved to Los Angeles in the 1970s. She played the role of Kolchak’s secretary, Monique Marmelstein, on ABC’s The Night Stalker. She made guest appearances on shows including Cheers, Doogie Howser, M.D., Mad About You, Just Shoot Me, Seinfeld, and Six Feet Under.

    Warner Bros. Television and Big Bang Theory producers Chuck Lorre, Steve Molaro, and Bill Prady issued a written statement about the Big Bang Theory star’s passing.

    “The Big Bang Theory family has lost a beloved member today with the passing of Carol Ann Susi, who hilariously and memorably voiced the role of Mrs. Wolowitz,” the statement reads. “Unseen by viewers, the Mrs. Wolowitz character became a bit of a mystery throughout the show’s eight seasons. What was not a mystery, however, was Carol Ann’s immense talent and comedic timing, which were on display during each unforgettable appearance. In addition to her talent, Carol Ann was a constant source of joy and kindness to all. Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with her family during this time, and we will miss her greatly.”

    Cast members mourned her passing via social media.

    The remainder of the cast and crew of The Big Bang Theory–as well as the show’s fans–are no doubt mourning the passing of Carol Ann Susi. She was just 62 years old.

  • Jenna Von Oy Of “Blossom” Sitcom Welcomes New Baby Girl!

    On November 1, actress Jenna von Oy gave birth to her second child with her husband, data consultant Brad Bratcher. Marlowe Monroe Bratcher was born at 12:35pm local time.

    A representative for Von Oy told Us Magazine that “Baby and mama are both doing great.  The whole family is together and very excited about the new arrival”. Although, no one’s probably more excited than Marlowe’s big sister Gray Audrey who’s now two years old. According to People, where von Oy also contributes as a blogger, Gray had a hand in picking the name for the baby.

    “We began mulling over names at the beginning of my pregnancy, and came up with a few we were fond of,” the 37-year-old mother said. “When we mentioned them aloud in front of Gray, Marlowe was the name that resonated most with her. She started referring to her future baby sister by name from that point on, and it stuck!”

    Brad Bratcher and Jenna von Oy got married in 2010.

    Jenna von Oy became a household name for her role as Six Lemeure in the 90s sitcom Blossom. Just recently, she reunited with her Blossom co-stars Mayim Bialik, Michael Stoyanov, and Joey Lawrence. The reunion happened back in July and was done to promote the show which is now airing on Hub Television.

    It was at this reunion where von Oy announced that she was having her second child.

    With this new chapter in her life, Jenna von Oy will be taking a break from writing her People.com blog, but she says she will be releasing a book very soon.

    She told People magazine, “I’ll be taking a brief hiatus from my PEOPLE.com blogs for a bit, as my family and I spend some much-needed time with our new arrival. Not to worry, however, I’m in the process of writing my book, Situation Momedy, which will be released in 2015 through Medallion Press, so this isn’t the last you’ve heard of me!”

  • Ariana Grande Gets Flak For Sexy Billboard And Diva Attitude

    Pop princess Ariana Grande has gotten negative attention from Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik for the sexy billboard in Los Angeles in which Grande is wearing lingerie. In a blog post on Kveller.com, the conservative Bialik admitted she didn’t know who Grande was but objected to her billboard.

    Calling herself “old-fashioned,” Bialik wrote that she didn’t want her kids to be learning about sex from billboards. “Which is why a few billboards I have seen lately really bug me. There is one for Ariana Grande, and I will go ahead and admit I have no idea who she is or what she does. Based on the billboard, she sells lingerie. Or stiletto heels. Or plastic surgery because every woman over 22 wishes she has that body, I’m sure,” she wrote. Bialik continued in the blog post to wonder why Grande had to “sell herself in lingerie” if she was a talented singer.

    Grande’s billboard promotes her new album, My Everything, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. She is the first woman to debut at No. 1 with her first two albums on the chart, but it may seem that her achievements have gone to her head with rumors circulating that Grande has also been acting like a diva.

    E! News presenter Giuliana Rancic confirmed that she wasn’t pleased by how Grande treated her during an interview at the 2014 American Music Awards. She claimed that the singer elbowed her to the side before starting the interview.

    “I felt like a bit of, you know, it was like ‘you either get on the other side or we don’t do an interview,’ and I just felt like it’s one thing if it’s Mariah, I’ll get on any side, I’ll bend down, I’ll climb a ladder, whatever it takes to get Mariah to do an interview. But when you’re new on the block, when you’re trying to earn your stripes, you’re young, you just gotta do what you gotta do,” Rancic said.

  • Mayim Bialik Talks New Television Show

    Mayim Bialik Talks New Television Show

    Mayim Bialik was a successful teen actress and you may remember her from the television show Blossom.

    She is also a main character on the show The Big Bang Theory. Bialik has appeared in numerous films and TV shows over the years, but she recently announced that she will be returning to television as a game show host.

    Bialik will be hosting the new Candid Camera show and said that she is excited to bring her unique views and sense of humor to the show.

    Bialik was recently interviewed by TV Guide Magazine and asked why she thought she was chosen for a comedy show instead of something more serious like Jeopardy.

    Bialik answered,

    “I appreciate that! I’m actually terrible at Jeopardy! This is a really neat fit, because they’re happy to have a female who’s interested in the larger issues. As Peter Funt, my producer and cohost said, “I’m more than just a pretty face.’”

    She went on to talk about the show and how she felt about it.

    “It is kind of a giant social experiment to see how people behave when there’s no logical explanation for why things are happening. It’s fascinating to see how people try to make sense of these gags,” she said.

    “What’s nice about the show is that, if you can still hide cameras and create scenarios that are amusing to an audience and believable to the people who are participating, it doesn’t really need to change,” she added.

    Candid Camera has been a hit in the past and dates back to 1947 where it started as a radio show.

    The show involves using hidden cameras to capture random people dealing with outlandish situations.

    Do you think the new show will be as good as the original?

  • Mayim Bialik Expands TV Repertoire

    Mayim Bialik Expands TV Repertoire

    Mayim Bialik began her TV career by playing Blossom on NBC’s sitcom of the same name. Following her foray into acting, however, Bialik would go on to get her PhD in neuroscience and wind up landing a much more appropriate role as Amy Farrah Fowler on CBS’s The Big Bang Theory. Now, Bialik in an Emmy-nominated supporting actress on TV’s number one show and is a household name. Fortunately, Bialik has not let the stardom go to her head, though, as she is now the host on a much humbler television series, Candid Camera.

    Candid Camera first landed on television in 1948 on ABC as a hidden camera show. The show was hosted by its creator, Allen Funt, from its beginnings until 1993. Since that time, the series has been hosted by Funt’s son, Peter, and a plethora of other hosts – the most recent addition being Bialik.

    When most Hollywood stars take roles deemed less popular by the general populace, they usually try to draw as little attention to their new position as possible (a la Tara Reid). Bialik, however, cherishes her new role, citing a childhood fondness as the reason for her excitement:

    I am very excited to be working with TV Land, Electus, and the legendary Peter Funt on the newest incarnation of the original feel good reality show, Candid Camera. Since I was a child, I have found it impossible to not smile when I hear, ‘Smile! You’re on Candid Camera!’ and I am honored and tickled pink to get to be a part of this amazing franchise.

    While some may think that hosting a gag TV show is far from Bialik’s line of expertise, the Big Bang Theory star sees the shows as a form of science, in a way: “It is kind of a giant social experiment to see how people behave when there’s no logical explanation for why things are happening. It’s fascinating to see how people try to make sense of these gags.”

    Candid Camera aired its first episode of its newest season last night on TV Land. New episodes will continue to air tonight through Thursday night, with new weekly episodes being aired every Tuesday night.

  • Jim Parsons: Nominated for Two Emmys, Leaving Big Bang Theory?

    Jim Parsons has been nominated for two Emmy Awards for his role in The Big Bang Theory, however rumors are swirling about a possible exit from the show. Might he take his Emmys and run and leave fans mourning his absence on the hit TV show?

    This isn’t the first time Parsons has been nominated. In fact out of the several nominations he has received in the past, he has taken home Emmys for three. In addition to Jim Parsons, The Big Bang Theory has received an Emmy nod for Outstanding Comedy Series. Parsons’ costar and on air love interest Mayim Bialik received a nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.

    Rumors about Jim Parsons leaving the show started last season when his character, Sheldon Cooper, appeared to be exiting the story line. Rumor has it that contract negotiations for all of the show’s characters are currently in a limbo of sorts.

    Those rumors along with the one about Jim Parsons leaving the show likely has Big Bang Theory fans up in arms. CBS Chairman of Entertainment, Nina Tassler, says there’s no reason to fret just yet, however.

    “We’re feeling very confident that everything will work out,” she said at the CBS portion of the Television Critics Association Summer Tour in Beverly Hills on Thursday. “These deals manage to get done somehow miraculously year after year.”

    Can you even imagine what The Big Bang Theory would be like without Sheldon Cooper? Hopefully Jim Parsons’ contract–as well as those of his cast mates–will be renewed once again. Fans will still have to wait a little while to enjoy new episodes, however. The show’s new season isn’t set to premiere until September 22nd at 8:00 P.M.

    Will you be tuning in?

  • The Big Bang Theory Grabs Five Critics’ Choice Nods

    The nominations for the 4th annual Critics’ Choice Television Awards were announced yesterday. And it looks like The Big Bang Theory has not lost any steam after seven seasons.

The sitcom’s competition for Best Comedy Series includes all shows that are on cable or Netflix: Veep (HBO), Orange Is The New Black (Netflix), and Louie (FX). The Big Bang Theory won the award last year in this category.

    Jim Parsons has also been nominated for Best Actor in a Comedy Series.

  • Mayim Bialik Says Breast is Best, Study Says Maybe

    Mayim Bialik has defended her right to breastfeed all over the place including a New York City subway. She has been a staunch advocate of attachment parenting and nursing until children are ready to be done, even if that means the “baby” is 2 or 3.

    She recently defended said subway incident, according to The Huffington Post. She said of the ensuing firestorm,

    “What I like to point out is that was the best way for that subway ride to be pleasant for everyone,” she said, adding later: “I don’t believe you need to cover up a baby eating anymore than you need to cover a baby drinking a bottle.”

    She went on to blame the controversy over breastfeeding on our society’s “very, very bizarre relationship with breasts.”

    Ok, so we may have a weird relationship with breasts. Consider the never-ending and always heated (for some reason) discussion on breastfeeding amongst new mothers and the mom-shaming that goes on for choosing not to, or not being able to, breastfeed.

    Is it really that big of a deal? A new study says it may not be.

    “I do think a lot of the effects of breastfeeding have been overstated,” lead researcher Cynthia Colen, assistant professor of sociology, tells Yahoo Shine.

    She added, “African-American women breastfeed children much less than white women do, for example, and I thought, this has to be affecting the findings,” she explains. “But I didn’t expect the research to be this striking.”

    1,773 sibling pairs were followed between 1986 and 2010 to make up the study. The result was that siblings raised in the same family but fed differently as infants had virtually no differences in outcomes including BMI, obesity, hyperactivity, parental attachment, and test scores predicting academic achievement in vocabulary, reading, math, and general intelligence in the ages between 4 and fourteen.

    Interesting. Perhaps this research will prompt a cease-fire in the endless debate between breast and bottle? One can hope.

  • Mayim Bialik: ‘Breastfeeding Is Not A Sexual Act’

    Mayim Bialik: ‘Breastfeeding Is Not A Sexual Act’

    Mayim Bialik is a big proponent of breastfeeding–yes, even in public. The actress and neuroscientist has had to defend her parenting style–attachment parenting–way more than she believes is necessary over the past several years. She spoke during an interview with the Huffington Post on Monday, and once again defended breastfeeding.

    “I received a tremendous amount of backlash,” the Big Bang Theory star said, referring to when she nursed her then 3-year-old son Fred on a New York City subway train. “What I like to point out is that was the best way for that subway ride to be pleasant for everyone. It was the end of a very long day.”

    She says she was simply putting her son’s needs first.

    “That was not a weak moment of parenting but a conscious decision of, ‘I have the best way to make this child happy and content right now,” she said.

    Mayim Bialik credits the Jewish parenting site Kveller with affording her “a safe place for me to speak up to the thousands and thousands of women who parent this way who get people harassing them all the time, and people looking at us funny in every department store or wherever else we nurse.”

    “When I was nursing, I didn’t feel the need to be immodest, but I also feel like that’s going to vary from woman to woman. I would try to be absolutely respectful and conscious of the community I was in. But I don’t believe you need to cover up a baby eating anymore than you need to cover a baby drinking a bottle,” she added.

    Mayim is widely known for supporting mothers who nurse their babies. She recently tweeted a bit of that support.

    Bialik fears that society has somehow sexualized a very non-sexual act that is perfectly normal between a mother and her child.

    “Our culture has a very, very bizarre relationship with breasts. Breastfeeding is not a sexual act. It’s an intimate act, and that makes some people uncomfortable, but it’s completely normal to have all of the human hormones that are released when you breastfeed regulating your relationship with your child,” she said.

    Kudos to Mayim Bialik for once again defending public breastfeeding. It seems absolutely absurd for a woman to have to hide away in a restroom or a dark corner in order to feed her baby in the most natural way possible.

  • Mayim Bialik Defends a Mother’s Right to Breastfeed in Public

    On HuffingtonPost Live, The Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik offered her opinion about a controversial parenting topic. She advocates and defends a woman’s right to breastfeed her children anywhere she feels necessary.

    In the interview, Bialik explained how breastfeeding involves some intimacy that makes several people uncomfortable, but it’s not a sexual act. “Our culture has a very, very bizarre relationship with breasts. Breastfeeding is not a sexual act. It’s an intimate act, and that makes some people uncomfortable, but it’s completely normal to have all of the human hormones that are released when you breastfeed regulating your relationship with your child,” states Bialik. She also gave her views on how the world tends to sexualize not only female bodies, but male ones as well. Bialik believes the world obsesses over sexualizing things.

    In 2011, Bialik received backlash after she posted a picture of her feeding her then three year old son Fred on a New York City subway. Despite the criticism, Bialik defends her actions, and any mother who wants to do the same. On her blog Kveller, she, along with other writers, express their opinions and insight on a variety of parenting issues, especially pertaining to attachment parenting, a method of parenting that allows the child to lead. It encourages bonding through such actions as co-sleeping and breastfeeding. She credits Kveller with providing “a safe place for me to speak up to the thousands and thousands of women who parent this way who get people harassing them all the time, and people looking at us funny in every department store or wherever else we nurse.”

    In the original blog post, she further addressed the issue by stating, “I never ever believed that I would be nursing a child over the age of 3. But now that I am, I believe when he is done, he will be done. I believe that he will not need to nurse before he walks down the aisle to greet his bride under the chuppah, and I believe that nursing is natural and beautiful and wonderful. I believe in being conscious of where I nurse my toddler and I also believe that there is nothing wrong with nursing Fred.”

    Bialik has two sons, Miles, 8, and Fred, 5, with ex-husband Michael Stone.

  • ‘Big Bang Theory’ Stars Push for More

    Stars of the CBS hit sitcom, “The Big Bang Theory” have recently sought to begin negotiations with network executives regarding a pay raise for future seasons of the show. The Emmy award winning comedy is about to begin it’s 7th season on September 26th. The show first aired in Fall 2007 and has recently been renewed in 2011 for three more seasons due to an immense level of success. The show has quickly risen to prime-time supremacy throughout recent years and is currently the most watched comedy on CBS. Since the show has branched out, contracting with TBS, the cast continues to reach new heights of popularity.

    When it became known that the newcomers to the cast, Melissa Rauch (Bernadette) and Mayim Bialik (Amy) had underwent some ‘favorable salary negotiations’ where their salary per-episode had doubled to $60,000, veterans of the show have cited intentions to begin these ‘talks’ as well. Jim Parsons (Sheldon), Johnny Galecki (Leonard), and Kaley Cuoco (Penny) have collectively decided to approach the show and network producers to demand an increase of salary per-episode.

    The trio each individually make $325,000 per-episode as of the most recent episodes. However, after the current deal/contract ends and the crew sets off to begin recording the next two seasons, the three hope to change that number to $1 million an episode. Rumors have surfaced that the remaining cast members Simon Helberg (Howard) and Kunal Nayyar (Raj) will team-up to raise discussions on potential raises also. At the end of the upcoming season the show will have aired over 159 complete episodes and doesn’t show signs of stopping anytime soon.

    The series has enjoyed critical success winning two People’s Choice awards for Favorite Comedy, three straight nominations for the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series, as well as several individual achievement awards among the cast.

  • Big Bang Theory Raises; Cast Asking For More

    Would you like to make more money? Sure, we all would. Even millionaire television and movie stars would like to make more money. Stars of the hit comedy series, The Big Bang Theory are no different.

    According to The Hollywood Reporter, Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch have already received updated contracts with salary increases from Warner Brothers.

    Jim Parsons who is the popular Emmy winner, Johnny Galecki, and Kaley Cuoco are all in talks to request higher salaries that may reach as high as $1 million per episode. According to TV Guide, the three currently make $325,000 per episode as written in their contracts that will run through this season.

    Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, and Kaley Cuoco have fought in the past to have their salaries increased. In 2010, the three stars who play the key trio of Sheldon, Leonard, and Penny were able to negotiate higher salaries. So, this isn’t the first time increases have been requested.

    Kunal Nayyar who plays Raj and Simon Helberg who plays Howard have also been in the process of asking for increased salaries.

    Will the pay increases be worthwhile to keep the cast happy enough to return for many more future seasons? Fans of the show sound very devoted to continuing their support.

  • Mayim Bialik Opens Up About Divorce Blog

    Mayim Bialik Opens Up About Divorce Blog

    Mayim Bialik, one of the stars of “Big Bang Theory”, has been penning blogs for Kveller–a site devoted to Jewish parenting–for a while now. In the past, her writings have gotten her a lot of attention–some unwanted–because of her belief in “attachment parenting” and lengthy breastfeeding. Recently, she began posting about another controversial subject: her divorce.

    “I wanted to write about some of the more complicated aspects. And specifically, also, there’s certain things [related] to Jewish divorce that people don’t know about,” she said. “There’s something called a ‘Get’. There’s a religious process. You sit in the same room and you watch your divorce deed be written. It’s actually a very interesting thousands year old document that you watch written and you have to be in the same room as your ex.”

    Some readers and fans of the show were perplexed as to why she would want to talk about such a painfully personal topic, but Bialik says she hopes it will help other women in the Jewish faith get through their own difficult time when a relationship comes to an end.

    “To me, it was a very cathartic, very emotionally powerful sense of closure for us,” she said. “It’s very intense. So I wrote for Kveller about some of those aspects in hopes to kind of maybe [be] helpful to other people or other women.”

    The actress has had to explain herself quite a bit over the past year after her blog became so popular and said people would stop her on the street to confront her about her parenting choices, particularly breastfeeding past a certain age.

    “If I’m talking to girlfriends, if I’m talking to random people, and we’re talking about parenting, I tell them what works for me and why. But a lot of people want to ask me things so that they can fight with me,” she said. “And just because I’m a public person, who happened to have breastfed and slept with her kids, that doesn’t mean that I want to fight with you on the street or in the supermarket. So, I think you have to be really careful to understand why people want to know what they want to know.”

  • Mayim Bialik: ‘Big Bang Theory’ Actress’ Divorce is Final,

    Actress Mayim Bialik is officially single again. The Big Bang Theory actress filed for divorce back in November 2011, citing irreconcilable differences. She stated at the time that it is not a decision she and her former husband, Michael, took lightly after more than nine years of marriage. The couple were married in August 2003 and have two young sons, Miles and Frederick.

    According to a TMZ report, Bialik’s divorce is now officially complete. The couple have reportedly split their real estate holdings, with Mayim taking the 1,400-square-foot Studio City residence and Michael taking the 1,300-square-foot Sherman Oaks home.

    Bialik gained fame as a child actress in the early 90s, playing the role of Blossom Russo in the hit network TV show Blossom. She has recently revived her network TV career, playing the character of Amy Fowler on the CBS comedy The Big Bang Theory.

    Bialik commented on her divorce last year in her blog at Kveller, a Jewish parenting website. From the blog:

    Divorce is terribly sad, painful and incomprehensible for children. It is not something we have decided lightly.

    The hands-on style of parenting we practice played no role in the changes that led to this decision; relationships are complicated no matter what style of parenting you choose.

  • Mayim Bialik Files For Divorce During Rough Year

    Mayim Bialik, the actress best known as the title character from the ’90s show “Blossom”, has officially filed for divorce from her husband of nine years, Michael Stone.

    The couple has two children together and have released a statement regarding their decision, saying it didn’t come lightly.

    “After much consideration and soul-searching, Michael and I have arrived at the decision to divorce due to ‘Irreconcilable Differences,’” she wrote on her blog. “Divorce is terribly sad, painful and incomprehensible for children. It is not something we have decided lightly…the main priority for us now is to make the transition to two loving homes as smooth and painless as possible.”

    Bialik has had a rough year, despite finding success on the enormously popular sitcom “Big Bang Theory”; back in August, she suffered a severe injury to her hand during a car accident which nearly left her without a finger. In what might have been the highlight of her 2012, she was nominated for an Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy.

  • Mayim Bialik: Accident Leaves Actress Injured

    Mayim Bialik, best known for her role as “Blossom” on the ’90s television show, was involved in an accident on Wednesday in Los Angeles that left her injured.

    Bialik was driving alone on her way to a family gathering when a car carrying three tourists slammed into her nearly head-on, causing her to injure her left hand and thumb. Apparently one of her fingers was cut so severely it was nearly severed. She was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment and later tweeted about the incident.

    Bialik’s rep issued a statement about the accident and assured her fans that she would be back at work today on the set of “Big Bang Theory”, calling it “a minor car accident … she is doing fine and will be returning to work tomorrow. She thanks everyone for their concern. ”

    The occupants of the other car suffered minor cuts and bruises.
