Celebrity Justice
Strange NY Times story on the courthouse behavior of celebrities. Inside, these tidbits: rapper Jim Jones once put a kaffiyeh over his head and pretended to be Yiddish when someone asked if he was famous outside of a courthouse; Foxy Brown uses her post-perp walks as excuses to show off her glamorous designer duds. And Courtney Love, no stranger to court appearances, jokes with reporters as if she's walking the red carpet at a B-list event. Which, we suppose, in some way, she is. [NYT]

Undo-plasty, The New Hot Surge
According to an article in the Chicago Tribune, "revision plastic surgery" — in which a procedure is revised or reversed — makes up 50% of some doctors' practices. Women who drop thousands on a nose job often find they don't like the results and go in search of more surgery. The name this phenomenon is going by? Undo-plasty. We're not talking incredibly shrinking cartilage, à la Michael Jackson — think Courtney Love, who wrote she wanted to go back to "the mouth God gave me." Just something for dudes to keep in mind, since pectoral implant surgery has had a 99% increase. That's right, dudes are getting man boobs in record numbers.More »

Courtney Love: So Crazy She's Starting To Make Sense
Nigel Ferndale of UK newspaper Telegraph interviewed rocker, recovering addict and Givenchy muse Courtney Love, and his encounter is everything one could hope for, including Courtney chanting while clad in a black nightie, crying, and cursing up a storm, all of which prompts Ferndale to think to himself, "Thank goodness she's still bonkers."

You may be dismayed to find upon reading her latest Myspace missive that Courtney doesn't seem to think her brilliance is shared by Madonna, or the editors at any of the major hipster magazines, of which she's currently pissed off at BlackBook and, like us, bored by Nylon — "read nylon - yep theres rilo dammed kiley- and a new bag designer jsut what the world needs!" Also, she seems concerned about her hair: is it too Michelle Pfeiffer circa Scarface? Whatever man, she has a new album coming out, and Linda Perry is sorta sometimes paying attention to it, and also she's got a tip for your inflamed brilliant-alcoholic pores:sulferous yeast cow piss baby veal sick sick sick- but zero pores after wards- Bioloquie recherche hust say "le stinky one"Okay, what now?
