• 64. The fact that you guys are using an Ed Sullivan reference, vis-a-vis Topo Gigio, should be applauded.

• 65. I'm just sorry that EVERY SINGLE email I read had some glaring misspelling. My favourite was the one that referred to TMZ as "gentile and mild". As opposed to what? Jewish and spicy? Buddhist and tart?

• 67. I'm VERY confused. Apparently it is an insult to liken the adorable Shawn Johnson to Topo Gigio. The joke is clear, in that Topo Gigio is much Nastier Lookin'. However, if Topo Gigio is Nastia Liukin - who won more golds than Shawn, then who is actually be insulted by this article? ??

• 68. My favorite comments are the people who say celebrities ask for it but the Olympians don't. Are you serious? Anyone who puts themselves out there in the limelight also puts themselves at risk for the "paps". Regardless of if it is right or wrong, one does not deserve it more than the other. What is the difference between being famous for being an amazing singer or actress and being famous for being an amazing gymnist. TMZ is a website that gives us all a daily dose of our celeb news...and we all eat it up...cause they do a great job! That how all of you "TMZ bashers" saw it in the first place. You don't go into a strip club and complain that there are naked chicks everywhere. Ugh...everyone lighten up.

• 71. TMZ, You got what you deserved. Shawn Johnson is a national hero whose done nothing but work hard and make her country proud. You should be ashamed of yourselves. GO TEAM USA!!!

• 72. Keep up the good work TMZ!!! This post is funny and true! As an athelete in the Olympics, Shawn is a public figure, and therefore, fair game. Why are people getting offended? And to all those who think TMZ's post is "unpatriotic", how about calling Britney and Paris "soldiers" and "representatives" of the USA. They represent the USA as well, just like Shawn.

• 74. All the haters have to get over it and not be hypocrites ... you look at tmz everyday because people are made fun of! Deal with it. BTW i dont think tmz is gonna fail just because a few of you dont want to watch it anymore. Boo hoo, there are still millions of us who will watch so good f***ing riddance and get a sense of humor.

• 75. What do you expect from the TV version of the National Enquirer? When are we gonna get over the whole "celebrity" thing. Just retarded. However, that said, it's what TMZ does. It wasn't even malicious. People need to get over themselves about as much as celebrity stalker sites/shows need to FOAD.
