Ellen To Mariah: Admit It, You're Knocked Up
- Did Ellen DeGeneres try to trick Mariah Carey into admitting she's pregnant? Mariah was a guest on Ellen's show, and after Ellen asked and got a vague response, she busted out the champagne, saying, "You don't have to answer that. Let's just toast with champagne." Mariah got flustered and said, "I can't believe you did this to me, Ellen," and pretended to sip the bubbly. Knocked up? [Yahoo News via E!]
- Someone's not pregnant: Sarah Jessica Parker in the Sex And The City sequel. Carrie won't be having a kid. "It doesn't seem as if that's going to be a choice she'll make… Michael (Patrick King, director) and I never talk about it. That doesn't mean that won't be part of the story. We just haven't figured it out. It feels a little bit manipulative to toss that into the mix, because she seems so pointed in a different direction." [Daily Express]

Bonfire of the Vanities
Girly Golddiggers Are Reeling From The Recession

"Everyone is looking for handsome, rich and charming men but there are less and less of them to go around." So says one of the comely women profiled by the NY Post's Page Six Magazine who openly admits to hunting a rich man — and, these days, failing. The money isn't flowing and as a result, neither are the free drinks and fancy dinners that a certain subset of beautiful women, in time-honored fashion, take as their due. What's weird about it is that admitting this doesn't seem to embarrass them at all. More »

Contrary To Popular Belief, Movies Made By Women Make Big Money
Remember last fall when Warner Brothers chief Jeff Robinov issued a studio-wide freeze on movies with female leads, under the rationale that those films do not bring in any money? Well if he looked at looked at the hard data, like Women & Hollywood Melissa Silverstein did for the Women's Media Center, Robinov would have found that movies with women, like the box office-bursting Mamma Mia! (with Mamma Meryl) do make good cash…when they're allowed to be made in the first place. More »

Six Degrees Of Carrie Bradshaw's Vagina
There was a time when a place in Carrie Bradshaw's vagina was the most coveted hot spot in premium cable. Honest-to-goodness stars like Vince Vaughn and Mikhail Baryshnikov visited Carrie's wonder spot, but it's not what you could do for Bradshaw's bits, it's what Bradshaw's bits could do for you. Just like Courtney Love, who famously said, "I have a magic pussy, If you fuck me, you become a king," doing time in Carrie's nether regions is a one-way ticket to televised success in 2008. Carrie Bradshaw's boyfriend is officially the new Jerry Seinfeld's girlfriend, as TV stars like Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross, and SatC's own Kristin Davis did it with Jerry before they hit the big time. After the jump, find out the four men who originally appeared as Carrie's beaux and are now part of the most critically acclaimed shows of the year. More »

The Bushnell Administration Candace Bushnell's interview yesterday for NPR's "On Point With Tom Ashbrook" was kind of cringe-inducing (start at like 30 mins for the worst of it.) Ostensibly, Bushnell was on to discuss her new novel, One Fifth Avenue — from which she reads various excerpts involving people with names like "Lola Fabricant" — but, not unreasonably, the host wanted to talk about how her SATC world will play in the new post-apocalyptic economy. Bushnell got wildly defensive, compared herself to Flaubert, and launched into a bunch of Palin-worthy tangents on McDonald's hamburgers, Gloria Steinem and many, many references to having paid her dues by not having cutlery until she was about 35. There's also a lot of strident interruption and pointed use of the interviewer's first name. "I feel a little bit like you're kind of missing the point of my work," she says sharply at 32 minutes. Gawd - Why can't everyone just accept that she's a serious "social satirist and anthroplogist?" [NPR]
