...and exotic dancers, or basically anyone whose time they're paying for. In Valentine's Day, this is a cutesy subplot, resolved in the ten minutes it takes for Old People to teach Big Lessons. In real life? Not so much: More »

Last night was the U.S. premiere of Secret Diary of a Call Girl, the show based on the book based on the blog based on the life of a supposed high class call girl Belle de Jour. Because Belle has somehow always remained anonymous through this whole thing, there's been a lot of speculation as to whether or not she really exists.

Sherri looked like she was gonna choke him with her fake pony tail; Whoopi told him he creeped her out; Joy got in his face over the definition of the word "pimp"; and Barbara tried to raise her eyebrows when he described Eliot Spitzer bedmate Ashley Dupré as having a nice tush. Strangely, Elisabeth was mostly mum. (She saves her harsher criticism for presidential candidates.) Above is a clip of the ladies clearly hating Itzler for merely existing. More »
