This is pretty harsh, Donald, just because Jerry doesn't want to align himself with this obsession you have with Obama's birth certificate!

So Jerry Seinfeld was scheduled to perform at a benefit headed up by Donald's son Eric Trump. It was for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, but he canceled.

The thing is, we'd be upset too if he let down a bunch of sick kids, but Seinfeld respectfully pulled out of the gig and is donating to the cause in place of performing. That sounds like the classy way to do it, especially if you're not keen with Trump's political missions.

But this pissed Donald off, and here's what he said:

"I just learned you canceled a show for my son's charity because of the fact that I am being very aggressive with respect to President Obama, who is doing an absolutely terrible job as our leader.

"We don't care that you broke your commitment even though the children of St. Jude are very disappointed, and despite the fact that your manager clearly stated you are 'truly a man of his word.' What I do feel badly about is that I agreed to do, and did, your failed show, 'The Marriage Ref,' even though I thought it was absolutely terrible . . . Despite its poor ratings, I didn't cancel on you like you canceled on my son and St. Jude. I only wish I did.

"You should be ashamed of yourself!"

Come on, Donald, that's not very mature. Especially if you actually think you're going to have a bid in this next Presidential election.

Bret Michaels will be taking Jerry's place, and we're sure it'll all end up being just fine!

Do U think Donald crossed a line??

All because you aren't swept up in the magic and wonderment that is the upcoming royal wedding, an event that has the entire world buzzing with glee and excitement.

Can you imagine that???

Earlier in the week, Jerry Seinfeld was crackin' wise on Prince William's upcoming marriage to Kate Middleton. He called the royal wedding a game of "dress-up" and insisted he had no idea what all the fuss was over the wedding. Piers Morgan got wind of Jerry's comments and as a proud Brit, he had a few to shoot back! He said:

"He's just jealous because he doesn't have a royal family in this country. He wants one. He's obviously lost all touch with his romantic side."

Damn straight! It's time to get onboard with hoopla, Jerry! (Or at least come up with some better jokes as we assume you were just poking fun at the Prince and his bride in jest! Just saying!)

NBC may be gearing up big time for Prince William's upcoming nuptials, but one of their biggest stars isn't as impressed with the whole shindig like the rest of the world.

Jerry Seinfeld appeared on the UK morning show Daybreak this week to promote his upcoming show at the O2 and of course, the topic of the royal wedding came up. Suprisingly, Jerry had a lot to say about it…in the form of criticism for the hoopla over what he calls a "circus act." Jerry held nothing back when explaining his point of you on the William and Kate Middleton's impending wedding, saying:

"You know, it’s a dress-up. It’s a classic English thing of let's play dress-up. Let’s pretend that these are special people. OK, we’ll all pretend that – that’s what theatre is. That’s why the British have the greatest theatre in the world. They love to dress up and they love to play pretend. And that’s what the Royal Family is – it’s a huge game of pretend. These aren’t special people - it’s fake outfits, fake phoney hats and gowns."

Uh, easy there, Jerry. You are in their country, after all!

Maybe he's just bitter he didn't get invited! Is that it, Jer?!

A lawsuit filed against comedian Jerry Seinfeld in 2007 by Missy Chase Lapine, an author of a series of Sneaky Chef cookbooks, has been thrown out by a New York City judge.

Missy's suit claimed Jerry had damaged her reputation during a 2007 interview on Late Show with David Letterman when he called her a "wacko" for accusing his wife, Jessica Seinfeld, of plagiarizing her idea for a kid-centric healthy cookbook.

The judge dismissed the case today, saying it was clear Seinfeld was joking and citing the comedian’s first amendment rights.

Shocker!

Sounds like Missy was trying to sneak some of Jerry's millions out from underneath his fork.

No one is feeling the loss more of Len Lesser than his of Seinfeld family. For many years, Len was simply Uncle Leo to the cast and in the wake of his death, they have come forward to remember him.

Jerry Seinfeld released a statement calling Len a "very sweet guy," and mourning his passing. He recalled one of his favorite memories of Len, an episode of Seinfeld in which Uncle Leo is arrested for shoplifting a book. Jerry added that the cast "always loved having him on the show."

His costar, Jason Alexander, took to his Twitter soon after and tweeted his sorrow over losing Len. He tweeted:

"Len was a tremendous guy. He was a smart actor/comedian who knew exactly what he was doing in the creation of Uncle Leo. I enjoyed many wonderful conversations with Len who was so openly grateful to be part of our show and so humble about his stunning contribution to it. I am so happy to have known him and my sympathies go to his family. But his was a fun life and he leaves many fans behind and many who will be enjoying his work for years to come."

Sounds like he will surely be missed by a lot of folks. Sad day.

We continue to send our condolences to his family and friends for their loss.

What's taken him so long? He hasn't performed there since 1998!

Jerry Seinfeld has just announced that he will be doing a one-night show at UK's O2 Area on June 3rd, next year.

When asked why it's been so long since he's performed in the UK, Jerry responded:

"Well it's not because of the food. I like the food, I'm a big fan of brown things. I've been very busy here in the States and I just wasn't even aware that there was an audience [in the UK] that really wanted me to come back until we spoke to a promoter who was very confident."

Unfortunately, though, looks like many of his UK fans are NOT happy with the expensive ticket prices! With ticket prices ranging between £70 and £100, ticket buyers have expressed their disappointment.

"I'm terribly, terribly sorry," Seinfeld said. "I really had to let the English promoter guide us in that because I don't know the market that well. So I'm going to complain to him. People complain to me … I'm going to complain to him. I hate to hear about grumbling. But there's got to be a certain amount of grumbling about anything doesn't there?"

True…but those ticket prices seem pretty steep. Let's hope his fans will think he's worth it.

Seinfeld fans everywhere which basically means everyone get ready to crack up!

An inmate in an Orange County jail, Malcolm Alarmo King, was able to convince a judge to arrange for him to receive better meals, due to his religious beliefs related to "Festivus."

Thanks to Seinfeld's fictitious holiday, King was given "a high protein no salami diet 3 times per day for 'Festivism.'"

King can also thank Orange County Superior Court Judge Derek G. Johnson who arranged the court order that allowed for this. We guess Johnson isn't a Seinfeld fan!

The judge ALSO signed off on double portioned kosher meals three times a day for King!

Here's what Cmdr. Dave Wilson of the OC Sheriff's department had to say about King's fake religious beliefs:

“People picked up on it pretty quick and said this wasn't right."

We can't believe he pulled this off AT ALL! Who doesn't know about Festivus???

The writer of that episode of Seinfeld must be absolutely LOVING this! We know we are!

What do U think of this story? If U didn't like it, feel free to air your grievances here! LOLs.
