    The Jacksons Reality Show Reveals Jermaine's Bitchiness

    Last night's premiere of The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty was pretty boring, as any Jackson family entertainment excluding Michael and Janet (or for me, La Toya) goes. But it did shed light on how shameless, moody and attention-craving Jermaine is. More »

    Sacred Institution

    Caught cheating in New Hampshire? You could be facing a $1,200 fine. And some lawmakers would like to keep it that way, on the grounds that taking the 200-year-old law off the books would somehow "diminish" marriage. [AP]

    Fancy Cakes Make Or Break Holiday Clambake

    You can now purchase a vaguely Chanel-looking quilted bûche de Noël in Paris — at least provided you have €60-€80 to drop on dessert. We kind of prefer this scrumptious-looking, and grown-up sized, Mies Van Der Rohe, actually. [T Magazine]

    Lara Stone Is A Living Doll On The Cover Of Love
