Ashlee Simpson To Join Forces With The Ashlee Simpson Of Mall Retailers
- As celebrity-commodity tie-ups go, it makes a certain kind of sense that Ashlee Simpson would shill for Wet Seal. Wet Seal is sort of the quintessential hollow youth retailer, possessing nary the layers of rigorous protocol and manufactured snobbery of Abercrombie & Fitch nor the countercultural "heritage" of Urban Outfitters, and so it is left, every few years, to "reinvent" itself under the watchful eye of the money men. Ashlee will be "designing" T-shirts "inspired by her own personality, sense of style and album artwork." [People]

Sarah Jessica Parker had this to say about being voted Maxim's Unsexiest Woman in the world: "It's so brutal in a way, so filled with rage and anger. It upset him [Matthew], because it has to do with his judgment too. Do I have big fake boobs, Botox and big lips? No. Do I fit some ideals and standards of some men writing in a men's magazine? Maybe not. Am I really the unsexiest women in the world? Wow! It's kind of shocking...It's condemnation, it's insane. What can I do? I guess you can't please all people." • Seal went off on the paparazzi last night outside Madeo restaurant, calling them "cockroaches" who "ruin people's lives." • Madonna and Guy Richie were spotted out on a very public dinner date, perhaps to rebut recent rumors about an imminent split between the couple?

Tinseltown Got Glittery And Gay For Elton John's Oscar Party
Despite the majority of Oscar party cancellations in light of the seemingly un-ending (and now ended) WGA strike, Elton John's long-running, star-studded fete was in full swing last night. Many of this year's nominees and winners dropped by, as did others, including Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi, Courtney Love, Rupert Murdoch, Minnie Driver, Leven Rambin, Lydia Hearst, Tara Reid, Tara Subkoff, Cheryl Tiegs (at left), Faye Dunaway, and even designer Roberto Cavalli, who looked ready to pick a fight. Maybe it's because Sir Elton brings out the crazy in people, but the fashions were much, well, louder at his party than they were at the awards themselves.
