“B-Joe” Namath on his birthday: “I’ll be around for 100 years!”

Call him Broadcast Joe!

New York Jets legend Joe Namath has discovered YouTube, and he took to the video site on his birthday to vow to be around at least until he turns 100!

The Tequesta hall-of-fame QB, who’s also famous for his years of hard livin’, recently posted this video of a stream-of-consciousness dissertation about his, or anyone else’s, birthday. Proud Gemini Namath turned 67 Monday.

Looking sober and relaxed in the study of his Intracoastal home, Namath actually makes a lot of sense when he talks of birthdays as “food for thought.”

Broadway Joe, who introduces himself on the video as “B-Joe,” also says he expect to live to be a century old.

“How many more birthdays are you expecting,” he asks. “With (my parents’) genes, some care and lady luck, I figured I’d last about 100 years.”

From how he looks, will Joe Namath last another 33 years?

Rush Limbaugh to marry galpal Kathryn Rogers next week in Palm Beach

Palm Beach radio talker Rush Limbaugh swore off marriage after three ill-fated attempts at domestic bliss.

But that was before he met striking West Palm Beach resident Kathryn Rogers, a woman half his age and a direct descendant of founding father John Adams; Before she nursed him through a heart attack; And before she laid some balm on the Conservative firebrand’s bruised ego when the NFL rejected him as potential owner of the St. Louis Rams.

For once, El Rushbo is eating his words.

Limbaugh, 59,  is set to marry the 33-year-old Rogers next week in an intimate ceremony at his beachfront compound.

Limbaugh didn’t confirm any details but asked for privacy in an email to Page2Live.

“We try to live our lives as normal people,” Limbaugh wrote. “We do NOT seek media attention, we do not want it, especially for this. It is very special, obviously, and we just don’t want any media attention.”

Rogers, a VIP liaison on the last two super bowls in South Florida, has been sporting a blinding sparkler on her ring finger for more than a year now.

No word yet on the guest list, menu or dress code but stay tuned.

The couple sent out invitations to family and friends in February. If you haven’t received yours, don’t bother crashing. Security will be tight.

True blue: BB King plays BB King’s

Legendary bluesman BB King played the West Palm Beach club that bears his name for the first time Wednesday night, sixth months after the newest BB King’s Blues Club opened at CityPlace.

King, 84, is planning to play the watering-hole twice a year. About 300 fans showed up, some paying 100 bucks to listen to the guitarist and his instrument, Lucille.

Off stage, King remained mostly in a wheelchair, the result of a bum leg, he said.

“I’m trying to give people the kind of blues that’s not watered down,” King told Page2Live’s Mike Jachles before the show. “BB King’s is about good food and good music.”

Jersey Shore fast-tracked

The cast of Jersey Shore, in South Florida to film the MTV hit reality series’ second season, must be running out of things to do in Miami Beach.

The crew — Snooki, JWoww, The Situation, Sammy Sweetheart, Ronnie Magro and the rest of them — materialized at a karting track Saturday afternoon in Fort Lauderdale. There’s no telling how Snooki fit into the tiny seat of one of Xtreme Indoor Karting racer, but I’m told most in the cast raced. Bar-brawler Magro even honed his boxing skills on an interactive video game as Sammy, and series’ camera crew, looked on.

Like I said, they must be running out of activities.

Former 7th Heaven star Jessica Biel, who’s also known as the sometime-girlfriend of singer/actor/heartthrob Justin Timberlake, is spending the weekend at the Four Seasons in Palm Beach. But it hasn’t all play for the 28-year-old actress of the goody-goody CW series, whose movie career took off opposite Edward Norton in The Illusionist. Biel is a Revlon model, and she was a guest of honor at the cosmetic giant’s yearly private gala, Friday night at The Breakers. And the SplashNews photos shot at her arrival Friday at Miami International show why: She always looks hot, even after an early morning flight from L.A.!

Bill O’Reilly helps raise cash in Palm Beach for rape victims’ advocates

O'Reilly addresses fans Friday night at Mar-a-Lago (Click on the Mike Price photo for more on the event)

Fox News superstar Bill O’Reilly, the non-nonsense host of the top-rated The O’Reilly Factor, preached to the converted Friday night at Palm Beach’s Mar-a-Lago.

Click here for all the photos

In his “State of the Union” talk, the conservative host blasted liberal rival MSNBC, calling it “little” because “eight people watch it.”

Comparing the White House to the Chicago mob, O’Reilly said he hopes for low approval ratings for Pres. Barack Obama because, when that happens, The Factor’s ratings go up.

And he predicted that Republican Mitt Romney would take on Obama in the 2012 presidential elections, with Sarah Palin’s third party candidate siphoning votes from Obama.

But O’Reilly, 60, didn’t really come to talk politics. He came to help shine the limelight on a newbie on Palm Beach’s charity landscape: the It Happened to Alexa Foundation. And it worked. About 400 people paid up to $600 for a photo with O’Reilly, his speech and a steak dinner.

Reggie who? It’s all business for Kim Kardashian amid rumors of split

If reality TV starlet Kim Kardashian (E!’s Keeping Up With The Kardashians) is broken up about her reported second break up with New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush, she sure didn’t show it Wednesday at the Bentley Hotel in Miami Beach. That’s where Kardashian celebrated the first anniversary of her online shoe store, shoedazzle.com, with local drag queens, Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis, bubbly and paparazzi.

The Dolphins be damned, Jimmy Buffett’s a Saint

Palm Beacher Jimmy Buffett suddenly bleeds New Orleans Saints black and gold. Buffett, who made a commercial deal with the Miami Dolphins last year when the stadium was renamed yet again after his Land Shark beer, just posted this picture on his Facebook site. That’s Jimmy with daughter Savannah and the Saints’ Lombardi Trophy. Buffett, by the way, is the guy the Dolphins trusted to rewrite the team’s fight song. So, what gives?

Still not engaged! It’s not about my ring, says Kim Kardashian

Still no ring, says Kim Kardashian, moments after the Super Bowl (click on the photo for celebs at the Super Bowl)

See, no ring yet! Kim Kardashian celebrated the Saints victory on the field of Sun Life Stadium (Click on the photo for more celebs at the game)

Weeks before Super Bowl XLIV, reality TV star Kim Kardashian blurted out to a radio d.j. that New Orleans Saints running-back Reggie Bush would propose marriage if he won the big game.

Well, he did win.

But there’s still no engagement.

Page2Live asked the pretty, big-bottomed brunette about it as she celebrated the victory on the Sun Life Stadium field Sunday.

“No, he hasn’t proposed,” the star of E!’s Keeping Up with the Kardashians said. “But let this moment be about Reggie’s ring and not about mine.”

It’s not like the two, however, aren’t tight.

For one thing, Kardashian will take place on the team float with Bush at today’s victory parade for the Saints in New Orleans. And then, their respective families bonded during Super Bowl week. Kardashian’s mom Kris Jenner and brother Rob, who are also on the reality show, and Bush’s dad, Reggie Bush Sr., brother and stepmother, were seen falling in each others’ arms during the on-the-field celebration Sunday. And the entire crew dined at the Prime 112 steakhouse in Miami Beach Friday night.

AnnaLynne McCord among stars lingering in SoFla after Super Bowl XLIV

Even if Super Bowl XLIV already took its place in NFL history books, some celebs are lingering behind in South Florida. Not that anyone would be unhappy about that, especially when it comes to 90210 hottie AnnaLynne McCord. McCord, by the way, appeared at Transformers director Michael Bay’s house party in Miami Beach Saturday night attached to ex-boyfriend Kellan Lutz, one of the hunky vampires on the Twilight saga. That prompted rumors the two have rekindled their fling. (Click on the photo for more views of Lutz and dozens of celebs who descended on SoFla for SB XLIV)
