Comments
The Disney act is the Jonas Brothers, right?
And Justin Timberlake and Gerard Butler now have a girlfriend in common. The universe is sort of exploding.
BI - Zac Efron??
I love Thandie to death, but the role of Condi should go to either Angela Bassett, Sanaa Lathan, or Omarosa (after she takes acting lessons).
* Am I the only one who thinks the Beyonce/Jay Z thing is an elaborate Pop Fiction hoax?
*Beatrice McCartney shopping with the nanny makes me so sad.
*BI: the Jonas brothers?
*RE: Stacy London and dissing the Hills: agreed! Although I doubt anyone on the show knows what Hermes is.
*Naomi Campbell: Oh that's totally acceptable. You're forgiven. (?!??!?!)
Word, Stacy London. Word.
So we can pry the gun from his cold dead hands now?
Another reason to love Stacy London!
Dane Cook's neighbors hate him for the shit that comes out of his dog whereas I hate him for the shit that comes out of his mouth. Either way, Dane Cook=shit.
@amoureuse is the Head of the Unicorn Party: Ooh, Sanaa Lathan would kill that! I love her.
Im so jealous of Cameron. Beyonce and Jay-Z? Really could care less. Naomi why dont you just BUY a plane for crying out loud.
I know it's in bad taste to speak ill of the dead, but...fuck Charlton Heston, man. Crazy NRA bastard.
Can Scarlett Johannsen sing more notes than Heidi Montag? Remember a few weeks ago when we got to listen to Heidi Montag's single and she could sing like five notes and it was all super-vocoder-fied and it was like kind of cute for a Casio keyboard demo?
I want Scarlett's music to sound exactly like that, but I want her to be able to sing six notes.
I love Stacy London. That is all.
Scarlett Johansson's album cover reminds me of goatse...but I think that just means I have a dirty mind.
BI = The Jonas Brothers. How do I even KNOW this?
Okay, I'm not going to see that George Bush movie, because they're obviously not going for realism with the casting. Next, they'll announce that Terrence "baby wipes" Howard has been cast as Colin Powell.
You tell 'em Stacy London! My goodness I heart that woman something fierce.
But at least that tempered the Gerard Butler/Cameron Diaz news. It's Monday, did I have to read that first thing? Sad...
Linda McCartney was not Paul's ex-wife, was she? I thought they were married when she died.
Charlten Heston is dead. The universe HAS EXPLODED.
Blind Item: Bell Biv Devoe
@hortense: I think Jonas Bros., too.
Also, go Stacey London!
And if I were Jessica Alba's friend, I would be pissed that I had to buy her rich ass presents. But that's just me. I probably wouldn't be her friend, although I'm disappointed Rashida Jones was there because she seems cool. Based entirely on the fact that she dated John Krasinski and I can either love her or hate her for that, so for the sake of Office re-runs, I'll love her.
@tscheese: I can see her having a really smoky, sexy jazz album. Mainly because she has a deep-ish voice. And I can't deal with any more of the synthesized fake voice shit that's been going on since... oh... 2000.
I would fully support the formation of a child services group aimed specifically at famous families. At least it looks like Jaime Lynn is norming out after seeing the train wreck that is her sister (and mom...and dad.)
Re: Beyoncé and Jay-Z's wedding - was the gun amnesty box next to the gift table?
Dane Cook doesn't pick up after his dog? Nasty!
What would you expect from a guy who's a joke stealer and is still not funny?
I actually liked the description of Scarlett's album cover more than the picture....
@misssgolightly: I know I'm cynical about these things, and I know so many people who have so much more talent than these celebrities yet will never acheive national stardom. But! I kind of want her to be good. I don't know why. I kind of want one of the actresses-turned-singers to actually have genuine musical talent.
Do the filthy rich really need to have a friend buy them a stroller?? Seriously? It's called donating to charity. Look it up there Alba.
@hortense: Um, who ARE the Jonas brothers?
Btw, not really connected but I despise the American version of What Not to Wear. Stacy London is so annoying on that show, So now I am doubly annoyed that I must agree with something she says.
@AthertonMerriweather: ...And now you know. Yo slick, blow.
BI totes has to be the Jonas Brothers. Those boys wear pocket squares and everything.
And here, here to Stacey London. She gets on my nerves, mostly, but she's right. I have zero urge to look like Lauren Conrad!
Tell us how you really feel about Heston.
The man died of Alzheimer's, was married to the same woman for 64 years, and made some of the most famous film. Don't like his politics, but at least be respectful of his death.
Like anybody needs a legit reason to hate Dane Cook
@fucking.bracket: Well, Rashida is friends with Adam Levine so....
@Snaffles: I literally guffawed at that.
*BI-Jonas Brothers...they always look so creepily airbrushed. No sixteen year-old boy should look that made up.
*I love the grey stripe in Stacy London's hair. And I totally agree, the Hills girls are "nitwits" and no one needs to spend that much dough on a purse.
*Who brings guns to a wedding?! Srsly!
@HPgirl: I don't know. The middle school girls I work with love them. I guess they are a tween phenomenon, a male Hannah Montana or some such.
@tscheese: Everyone should check out the Zooey Deshanel cd - it's very good!
@AthertonMerriweather: I just blurt out laughing.
Scarlett Johansson actually has a very good voice:
+ Watch video
If Stacy London and Tim Gunn could get together and have babies, those kids would be the best people ever.
I have something in common with Dane Cook's neighbors, because I hate him for not being funny and giving my awesome city a bad name.
I always thought that Clinton would be my BFF if we knew each other IRL, but now Stacy has won me over that much more.
I'm... actually kinda looking forward to ScarJo's album. Her version of "Summertime" was pretty darn good!
The Cammy-Gerard pairing doesn't make Monday morning any better.
