• Unless you're living in a closet on Mars, you know that the Sex and the City movie premiered today.
• Slut Machine live blogged it wearing flip flops and eating some skittles. Suck on that, Louboutin wearers.
• The only part of the Sex and the City franchise that we're not sick of is Pat Field and her fabulous, gay, Payless lifestyle.
• Tyra Banks revealed her plans for world domination in the New York Times.
• TyTy sort of looked like a Bratz doll on that Times Mag cover; Bratz are also involved in world domination schemes

There were a lot of nauseating elements of this show, what with all the shoe analogies and shit, which is perhaps why they made everything so pink, so as to simulate a giant spoonful of Pepto Bismol.

And speaking of pink:

Dude has on a pink shirt with floral cuffs, and he's FREAKING out about SJP. I think it's safe to say that this is the gayest this guy has acted since he started having anal sex with other men.

They actually made it a point to acknowledge the other gay men in the audience as well.

None of them are nearly as fun as Pinky though.
