You go Dr. Addison!!! • Lauren Bacall is showing some FIERCE cleavage in this shot. [Perez, CBS News, Daily Mail]

A new study out of Cambridge University reveals why we did so well in college: The more sexual partners students have, the worse they perform in school. Also, students who have had more sexual partners tend to go to worse schools than those who have done less sleeping around. And oddly enough, the survey also found the following: "Students studying medicine are among those who have the most sexual partners compared to mathematicians, who had the fewest..[Veterinary students] come near the bottom of the table, with fewer than two average sexual partners per student." We watch Grey's Anatomy: Everyone knows doctors are big whores. And to all our readers in the U.K.? We suggest you see a vet if you want trustworthy care. [Daily Mail]

Chanel's "Night Of Diamonds": Pretty Lovely, Despite Ellen Pompeo
The Chanel Night of Diamonds dinner held last night at The Plaza Hotel in New York (which, btw, is no longer a hotel, but a bunch of really expensive condos) was yet another excuse for Chanel to toot its own horn. Seriously, is there any other way to rationalize a black-tie dinner in honor of a jewelry collection? One thing's for sure, we're damn thankful that the stars who turned out for the event know how to dress themselves! (Sure - they didn't really dress themselves — most all of them were in loaners handpicked by Chanel PR, but who has time to nitpick when there's an opportunity to drool over the gown modeled by Gossip Girl star Blake Lively. [Moe disagrees, saying "it looks like Nightmare On Goth Prom Street". -Ed.]) Then, of course, there was Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo. Seriously, we haven't seen a red carpet disaster this bad in ages. See for yourself with the full good, bad, and ugly, after the jump. More »

Now That Her Paycheck Has Cleared, Katherine Heigl Calls Knocked Up "Sexist"
Katherine Heigl tells the January issue of Vanity Fair that, although her co-starring role in Knocked Up launched her career into the A-list stratosphere, she now feels that the movie was "a little sexist." While Heigl's comments echo Slut Machine's issues with the Apatow blockbuster, it's a little disingenuous to cash the $300,000 paycheck and, after you've reaped the benefits of the movie's success, slag your character to a major magazine. Heigl obviously read the script before she committed, so she knew what she was getting into, though now she claims, "It was hard for me to love the movie." Then again, she also criticizes Grey's Anatomy, telling VF she's upset because of a sweeps-week stunt that had her character, Izzie, boning down with her married best friend. Let's get this straight: "ratings ploys" are bad, but shilling for a Grey's Anatomy-themed line of scrubs is totally fine. More »
Researchers from Johns Hopkins and Northeastern universities say that people who have lady doctors are more satisfied with their medical care. Female M.D.'s tend to encourage emotional rapport and want their patients to get involved. Maybe that's why Grey's Anatomy is so popular? [Psychology Today]

Katherine Heigl Is Bringing Sexy Back
Katherine Heigl has ascended to that level of fame that had previously eluded all members of the really attractive, ludicrously-sympathetic TV doctor club: she is attaching her name to a clothing line. This little nugget of celebrity-sartorial complex dish comes courtesy the Portfolio Magazine website, though not, we are sad to report, from the matchless Lauren Goldstein Crowe, but rather an intrepid reporter named Andrea Chalupa. Andrea Chalupa! And keeping in the almost as classy as us eating Kashi from the box/wearing the same V-neck we wore last Saturday theme (chalupas sound soooo good right now!) theme, the clothing line to which Heigl is attaching her name is a line of SCRUBS. Scrubs! More »

Dr. Burke Checks Out Of Seattle Grace; We Check In
Isaiah Washington, who plays the dreamier — and moodier — than McDreamy Dr. Preston Burke, got booted from Grey's Anatomy at last, making Burke the third major character who won't be returning to Seattle Grace come fall. (Dr. Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh) has her lusty spin-off Private Practice, and it's been reported that Callie (Torres) O'Malley (Sara Ramirez) will only be making guest appearances, as opposed to be appearing in a regular role.) So without Burke, Addy, and the girl who shouldn't have married George in the world's best/worst hospital (the docs may all be really hot, but their patients always die!), whatever will happen to the other characters next season? Our suggestions for the Grey's writers, after the jump. More »
