<![CDATA[10 Things You May Have Missed On TV This Week]]> In this week's multimedia compilation of pop culture crap, Chynna Phillips believes that Jesus planned for her sister and father to have sex, Tyra investigates objectum sexuals, and there's a reported vagina flash on So You Think You Can Dance.



1.) Flash Dance
This week on So You Think You Can Dance?, some woman flashed her crotch, and Fox gave her a flesh-colored blur, leading these ABC News correspondents to wonder whether or not she was going commando.


2.) Barbara disses Mariah's boring story on The View.



The interview was preempted for the breaking news that Chicago did not get picked to host the Olympics. When The View returned, Mimi's dog appeared.


3.) This.


4.) Jesus wanted John Phillips to have sex with his daughter.
Because he knew it would help Chynna sell her new album.


5.) Tyra has a knack for discovering people who are really good at being assholes.


6.) Tyra also finally discovered Objectum Sexuals.


7.) Check out this hot ticket on Judge Judy.


8.) So not glitz.


9.) Kim doesn't like anything "cheesy" or "cheap."
So don't let the wig fool you.


10.) NeNe bitches out Lara Spencer.

<![CDATA[ANTM Contestant Accuses Tyra Of Being "Shady"]]> ANTM contestant Natalie Pack seemed pissed when she was eliminated this week. Now she's saying she thinks Tyra is "shady," "plays favorites," and adds fuel to the rumors that Tyra and Jay Manuel "don't click."

In an interview on E!'s site, Natalie says she was a victim of editing, which is a common claim of reality TV stars; however, her complaint may have some truth to it:

They actually cut and pasted lines to make me sound like I was a spoiled brat because they were so desperate to make me look that way. I felt like they didn't have enough drama since Sandra left, so they chose me.

As we pointed out in our recap post of this week's episode, it seemed ridiculous, if not suspicious, that Natalie was eliminated before some of the other girls, who had worse pictures. Natalie chalks it up to Tyra's personal favoritism for some of the other contestants:

It was very, very shady. I think the judges thought that I lied and that's why I got sent home. I have a feeling Tyra and Jay [Manuel] don't really click that well. Tyra definitely has a soft spot for Aminat and Teyona. I think she just loves [their] personalities. I feel like they're most relatable to Tyra, since Tyra was a black model struggling. I think she has a hidden emotional connection with the black girls, and I think that's where a lot of favoritism comes from. I'm not accusing her of it, but that's just my opinion.

<![CDATA[Is Ryan Seacrest's Sexuality No Longer In Question?]]> On E!'s Oscars red carpet pre-show last night, celebrities openly made gay jokes about Ryan Seacrest (Jay Manuel, Evan Rachel Wood) to the point that his rumored homosexuality has gone from latent to blatant.

<![CDATA[Mr. & Miss J Unleashed On Average Americans In Top Model Spinoff]]> America's Next Top Model coaches Jay Manuel and J. Alexander are currently filming their spinoff, Operation Fabulous. The premise? Mr. and Miss J ride into small towns across the country to advise everyday girls on how to "work it" in the real world. A sort of Queer Eye For The Plain Jane.

The show has yet to get picked up by the CW, but expect a "feel-good" vibe that's a contrast to the way the Js cut down wannabe models on ANTM. CW president Dawn Ostroff says these guys root for women: "Jay is your parent in tough love. He tells you the way it is, but only because he wants you to be the best you can be. As much as Miss J criticizes and rolls his eyes, deep down, he's just looking for the girl who can get it done."

Jay Manuel, who grew up in Toronto and has been a stylist for Tyra, Jennifer Lopez, Iman, Rebecca Romijn and David Bowie, says: "We like working with real women too. We want them to feel good about themselves. We aren't giving them makeovers on Operation Fabulous. I actually hate the word 'makeover.' We're teaching them to enhance and maintain what they've already got." Eh, sounds like a makeover.

But what about 6'4", 37 inch inseam J. Alexander — who was born Alexander Jenkins in the South Bronx and "plucked from obscurity" to model for Jean Paul Gaultier, then landed jobs in Tokyo and France, where he now resides and speaks fluent French? His entire life is a makeover, no?

And here's the real question: Isn't the makeover make better genre pretty saturated? Tim Gunn, Stacey and Clinton, Style By Jury, Extreme Makeover, The Swan… Haven't we seen it all? Especially when it comes to gay men telling women how to be "better" women? On the other hand, the Js are… different. Ostroff says when she first got a load of them in 2003, for the first season of Top Model, "They truly were unlike anything we'd seen on TV, refreshing and hilarious."

<![CDATA[Live From New York: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly Betty Premiere]]> Everybody looked so happy at the preview party for Ugly Betty's third season last night, where the cast — America Ferrera, Ana Ortiz, Vanessa Williams — and various guest stars like LiLo and Mr. Jay gathered at NYC's Highbar to celebrate the new season. Yeah, everyone looked kind of ridiculous, but they also all kind of looked awesome. And the show's so campy that the parade of jumpsuits and cougar costumes kind of just made sense. The good — the bad — the Jay Manuel — after the jump.









The Good:
On the one hand, America's dress reminds one slightly of upholstery chintz. On the other, this retro silhouette is nice on her figure.
Clothing on lower half: check. Hair inching towards reddish: check. This is all very good progress. And the dress is actually cute!
Loving how Vanessa Williams is just embracing some kind of unabashed Orange County Trophy Wife-turned-cougar aesthetic.
Judith Light, of course, has been rocking this look for years. Extra points for the bold stance.
The strapless jersey jumpsuit has maybe five more seconds to go before it's consigned to that chaotic "sale" room in Forever21, but Ana Ortiz looks so comfy and jolly I just can't begrudge anyone the trend.



The Bad:

Even had the royal we not made our displeasure for this absurdly grotesque trend in shodding widely known, Becki Newton's electric number and studded clutch would have earned our disapprobation.



The Ugly:

On the one hand, Mr. Jay Manuel always looks like this. On the other, he always looks awful. Even if according to The Tudors, fitted leather doublets were essentially required in the 16th century at all times that people weren't naked.

<![CDATA[The 8 Worst Hairdos A Man Can Have]]> What is it about men and hair? Women are always the ones said to be washing, dying, fixing, cutting and obsessing over their tresses, but some guys can be very attached to their locks — dating back to Samson. And why is it that some guys will, completely unapologetically, rock the worst hair ever seen by human eyes? And act proud of it? Radar has a list of fashion-industry men with "fancy locks," including designer Alexander Wang and Vogue editor Hamish Bowles. But they've got nothing on the dudes rounded up on WOW Report (from a NSFW blog called Fey Friends) in their post, "Inexcusable Hairdos on the Nude Dudes of Playgirl". See men with contemptible coifs of yesteryear — as well as hideous hair of today — after the jump.

1. The Feather Duster
Is it a mullet? Is it (shudder) a shag? Wait til you see this angle:

Didn't Alyssa Milano have this same 'do on Who's The Boss? Thanks to Fey Friends, you can see this guy naked. NSFW, obviously.

2. The Fabio
There's not enough Pantene Pro-V in the world to fix those split ends. Only a pair of scissors can cure what ails this gentleman. (You can see this guy naked too. NSFW.)

3. The Dorothy Hamill

Fey Friends calls this one the Kate Jackson, but it's clearly a Dorothy. This shaggy look is actually making a comeback, on teenage Disney Channel stars and that one guy on Bravo's Million Dollar Listing. Be afraid.

4. The Soul Glo

A Jheri curl on steroids! The faux commercial from Coming To America was so solidly based in reality it almost wasn't funny.

5. The Lace-Front Man-Weave

John Travolta has one. So does Brendan Fraser. Lord only knows what is up with Nicolas Cage's hair these days.

Oh! Here's a close up of Revolta:

6. The Long-Ass Combover

Joe Biden's hair-plug and comb-over combo is a desperate attempt for you to listen to his words and not look at his scalp. Why are some guys so afraid of going bald? It doesn't sap your strength! Ask James Carville.

7. The Silver Scrub Brush

Jay Manuel is the only one who knows what the hell this is all about.

8. The Electric Shock Treatment Therapy

This is the dude, yes, dude from Tokio Hotel. I hate to sound like my mom but: Kids today are crazy.

Want to nominate a dude with wretched hair? Feel free to post pix in the comments!

<![CDATA[More ANTM Cycle 11 Clips!]]> The theme of the new cycle of America's Next Top Model is "The Future," except we seem to remember that they've used this future theme in the past — specifically during the promos of Cycle 9, which brought us this wonderful shot of Tyra in a metal swimming cap, and this one where she's working a Beyond Thunderdome look. Anyway, for the two hour premiere in two weeks — thank God Tyra that we're returning to the two-hour premiere format — Mr. Jay and Miss J. put girls into a "glaminizer" (essentially a prop with flashing lights), in order to make them better models. Sheena, the Asian American from Harlem, wonders if this will turn her into a robot. More Sheena after the jump.

<![CDATA[GLAAD Media Awards Attendees: Glad To Be There, Looking Good]]> Saturday night in Los Angeles, GLAAD honored those in the media who are, um, gay or friends to the gay. Most importantly, however, some way cool peeps turned up to represent. Yes, it goes without saying that the adorable Ellen DeGeneres, left, and her hot stuff girlfriend Portia DeRossi were there, but so were TV stars Becki Newton, Candis Cayne, Billy Baldwin, Sally Field, Sarah Silverman and Sharon Lawrence, reality TV stars Rami Kashou, (Mr.) Jay Manuel, Jackie Warner, Kathy Griffin, and random awesome stars Cindy Crawford, Rufus Wainwright, and Janet Jackson. Yay! After the jump, the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of the GLAAD Media Awards.



The Good:
glaad426beckinewton.jpgBecki Newton is wearing a beautiful dress in one of my favorite colors, bright yellow. So why the scowl?

glaad426candiscayne.jpgAh, if only Candis Cayne and Billy Baldwin were an actual couple. How glam they look a deux. [It's soooo hard to believe Candis was born a man! — Dodai]

glaad426cindycrawford.jpgMemo to Cindy Crawford: Always wear red. And accessorize with Rande Gerber.

Ellen DeGeneres: The Charlie Chaplin of our age?

gladd426portodirossi.jpgPortia DeRossi borrows a page from Ellen's handbook and rocks the white pants.

glaad426jackiewarner.jpgOh, Jackie Warner. Why must you always look so fierce? (And be such a bitch on Work Out?)

glaad426jenniferbeals.jpgIt's going to be hard for Jennifer Beals to do the bit with the chair in a ladylike evening gown like this.

glaad426kathygriffin.jpgKathy Griffin looks good. She's also looking less and less like Kathy Griffin.

glaad426rufuswainwright.jpgDear Rufus Wainwright and Jorn Westfeldt: Please give me the clothes off your back. And sing Judy Garland songs for me.

glaad426sofiaveragara.jpgYeah, Sofia Veragara is going to need to strip down and give me her dress too. It's so effortless but luxe.

glaad426sallyfield.jpgCatch your balance, Sally Field — you look lovely!

The Bad:
glaad426janetjackson.jpgMiss Jackson If You're Nasty: Is that a jumpsuit I spy?

glaad426jaymanuel.jpgJay Manuel, conquistador.

glaad426ramikashou.jpgI'm sorry: Rami Kashou should have worn something draped.

The Ugly:

glaad426sarahsilverman.jpgLove the dress, but loathe the shoes, Sarah Silverman.

glaadsharonlawrence.jpgSo many bad ideas in one little outfit on one little Sharon Lawrence. Sigh.
