Gwen & Gavin's Baby: Maybe A Boy, Maybe A Girl, Definitely A Goth

  • Gavin Rossdale says he and Gwen Stefani are not going paint the unborn baby's room pink or blue: They're going to paint it black. Goth bébé, aww. [E!]
  • John Mayer looooves to fuck with us. That's why he let himself be photographed carrying a "prescription bag" with a note that read "Experimental Human Growth Hormones, 2x daily." Haha, yeah, we know, The Hulk comes out today. Calm down. [E!]
  • Even if you could not care less about John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston, they do "look good together," and I hate when people say that. But it's true. Look at them. [ET]
  • Is everything OK between Sam Ronson and Lindsay Lohan? Instead of really DJing a party she was hired to spin, Sam was "uneasy and jittery," a spy says. "All she did was pop in CDs and spent much of the night outside on the phone, texting and chain-smoking." [Rush & Molloy]
  • Marcia Cross was in a minor car accident yesterday, but "everyone is fine." [ET]
  • Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson? Back together? Head. Exploding. [E!]
  • Supermodel Adriana Lima is engaged! The lucky dude is basketball player Marko Jaric; they've been dating for nine months. Freakishly tall and attractive kids to come? [People]

Latest by n/a: @loves_NoelFielding: Back off, bitch! He's mine! :) Just kidding, but I always thought he was so cute with his round face, glasses and sweet little Spanish-accent. This is PURE speculation on my part, but I've always thought Madonna's not half the more »

No Celebrity Is Safe From Tabloid Body Shaming

If you're at all in the public eye, it seems like you just can't win when it comes to weight, no matter what your gender is. Size acceptance blog Big Fat Deal calls out a Ricky Gervais interview, wherein he describes his undoing at the hands of the British Tabloids. "I never knew I was fat until I got famous… Then I suddenly realised I was overweight. The papers can’t simply put 'comedian Ricky Gervais.' They have to put 'rotund comedian' or 'chubby fatster,'" the Office star said. "The other day, I was trying to keep fit by going jogging with my iPod, and the paparazzi leapt out a bush and got me. The headline the next day? 'iPodge.' What can you do?" And Gervais isn't the only Brit of late subjected to this sort of talk. Jodie Prenger, a woman who just won the reality TV competition I'd Do Anything (the prize is the plum role of Nancy in a West End production of the musical Oliver!), has been raked over the coals for being "too fat" for the part.

Bullies Are As Common In The Cubicle As The Classroom

Much has been made of kids who get bullied recently — Billy Wolfe, in fact, was on the Today show this morning — but the truth is, many of us face bullies as adults: At work. On a BusinessWeek blog, Cathy Arnst writes about an editor she once had: "Whenever I made a mistake—and in the beginning I made many, many mistakes—he would stand over me in the open newsroom and scream at me, impugning my intelligence and professional skills in language I've rarely heard since. I had nightmares about those tirades for years afterwards. Needless to say, I never made the same mistake twice." According to a New York Times piece by Tara Parker-Pope yesterday, 37% of American workers have experienced bullying on the job. More »

workplace woes

How Do You Deal With Assholes At The Office?

I hated my last full-time job for a variety of reasons — because it consisted entirely of unchallenging grunt work, because the higher-ups encouraged a culture of snitching, and because almost everyone there was actively looking for a new job — but what actually made me quit was my deep and undying hatred of one of my coworkers, whom I'll call Angela. As the most senior of the junior staffers, she was ostensibly my superior. Every morning she would arrive at the office and immediately change into a pair of Orvis slippers, while ritualistically rubbing her hands together with anti-bacterial gel. Soon after I started the job, and on the eve of a three day weekend, I asked Angela what she was doing for the mini-break. "I'm handing out hot dogs at a homeless shelter," she informed me. "I began volunteering there when I first started this job and I was low man on the totem pole. I needed to have someplace to go where I was in charge of everything." More »

Lindsay Lohan Does 84 Minutes Of Hard Time

  • Lindsay Lohan went to jail for her DUIs yesterday, serving about 84 minutes of hard time. (Two more minutes than Nicole Richie!) Now we can call her an ex-con. [TMZ]
  • Amy Winehouse's tour manager quit! Thom Stone said working for Winehouse was hazardous to his health: He claims doctors found heroin in his system and he must have "inhaled it passively" on Amy's tour bus. Uh, is that even possible? [Daily Mail]
  • Right before she bombed on stage on Wednesday, Amy Winehouse locked herself in the bathroom and sobbed uncontrollably, saying she couldn't go on without her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, there. [Mirror]
  • Also, did Amy pull something out of her beehive and snort it??? [The Sun]

Christina Aguilera Is Probably Having A Boy!

  • Judging by her shopping choices, Christina Aguilera is having a boy. Unless she's trying to trick us! In which case she's having a girl. [The Sun]
  • Britney's former assistant says the pop star had a shrine to Kevin Federline in her house — her wedding dress and all of his old clothes. Um, won't someone please help? [The Sun]
  • Also, Britney has been ordered to pay Kevin Federline's $120,000 legal bill from the custody battle, since "the vast majority of the litigation deals with [Britney's] conduct." Ouch! [People]
  • Oh, and Britney's album was denied the #1 spot on the Billboard charts after an unexpected last-minute rule change. The #1 CD is The Eagles' Long Road Out Of Eden. We're beginning to think Britney has karmic debt. [MTV]

Latest by mllej: [www.tmz.com] Ehhh, a letdown really. more »

Oh my god, you guys! Mindy Kaling, who plays my fave character on the Office, the totally awesome Kelly Kapoor, has her own blog called Things I've Bought that I Love! She talks about the funniest shit, like being "so into 'the New Volume'. Airy patterned dresses with a cool shapeless shape that girls loved and guys were like 'Why the fuck are you wearing that pillowcase?'." Mindy totally sounds just like Kelly in real life, which is kind of the funnest way to write ever as some other lady at Slate already discovered. Reading about the new volume and also how washing your face with a hot washcloth is kind of "disgusting and raccoon-like," is like, our new favorite hobby. We totally want to hang out with Mindy/Kelly and go shopping for pillowcase frocks and coo at small dogs. [Things I've Bought that I Love]
