Zooey Deschanel, who I often forget is pretty cool, spoke truthy words about how horrible the Internet can be in this month's Marie Claire. (After all, noted Zooey Deschanel 1.0 Mary Louise Parker quit over it.)
What would Game of Thrones be like if the vaguely emoting cable television actors that fill out its character roster were replaced with your favorite indie icons, actors like Zooey Deschanel, the Adorkable, or Michael Cera, the Mumbling Pterodactyl, or Aubrey Storm Brow Plaza? Westeros would be a more nuanced,…
She & Him's new video for their plaintive song "I Could’ve Been Your Girl" is so Beyoncé's "Countdown" meets Alicia Keys' "You Don't Know My Name". From the old-school dancing, to sad waitress who just wants to be loved by her patron, Zooey expresses herself through the art of the past (and dance).
Sparkly!
Baby weight: A thing that happens, sometimes. Ways to fix/change it: Tuna melts*, not caring, doing Zumba or some shit, more tuna melts, or encasing yourself in a chamber of horrors like Jessica Alba.

In the immortal words of R. Kelly, after the show it's the after party. Last night, Oscar-nominated A-list celebs flocked to the Vanity Fair bash, where they mingled with TV stars and luminaries of the music world. The dress code was half pretty, half sexy. It was a night of many beautiful mammaries. Some ladies let…
Self-aware woodland creature Zooey Deschanel teamed up with Hello Giggles partner Sophia Rossi to start a production company, and they just inked a deal with 20th Century Fox TV.

On TV and in real life, droves of smart postgrad women are finding themselves unemployed or underemployed. But due to the recession and the contracted job market, girls who are considered especially good looking get pulled into low-paid labor that exploits their sexuality. This isn't sex work per se, and not all women…
Right around the moment Dakota Fanning made out with Kristen Stewart-as-Joan Jett in The Runaways, you may have realized that she's segued from her super-driven, super-child-actressy days (see: Amy Poehler's SNL sendup) to her eyeliner-skinny jeans-posing-for-Marc Jacobs-ads-going-to-Coachella period. But the Kote's…
Last night at the 70th annual Golden Globe Awards, the gowns were mostly good: Sparkly, vibrant, glittery bombshell dresses perfect for Hollywood royalty. Unfortunately, there were a couple of duds: Hideous or ill-fitting concoctions that fell flat. Let's take a look, shall we?
The February issue of Glamour features Zooey Deschanel on the cover, and inside, she talks about what all lady-celebs find themselves talking about these days: Body image and feminism.
Kristen Stewart has dropped out of Cali, the movie she was going to film with Alex Pettyfer, and will not show up to the premiere of On The Road. This is probably because her co-star in the Kerouac adaptation is Tom Sturridge, Friend Of R. Patz, which would admittedly be pretty awkward.

Siri may deny knowing Samuel L. Jackson and be irritated by certain members of the Deschanel family that insist on asking insipid questions about the weather, but she apparently does like some people. In the newest ad for Apple's iPhone 4S, she and John Malkovich seem to share quite a deep connection. Well, as deep…
It appears the time has come for every celebrity mother to take sides in the attachment parenting debate. Today Alanis Morissette planted herself firmly in "very attached" territory by saying she still breastfeeds her 16-month-old son Ever and won't stop until he asks her to. She thinks it's going to save her on…
If you think Siri gets bitchy when you ask her about Zooey Deschanel, wait until you see what she does when confronted with Jooey Deschanel. He's Zooey's "brother," and he seems to be suffering from some kind of adorkable spectrum disorder that allows him to drive Siri over the brink. "Siri, you wanna take a soup…
I'm beginning to think there's something fishy going on between Siri and Zooey Deschanel. I asked Siri some very straightforward questions about her homeslice Z, and Siri basically refused to discuss the situation with me. Behold:
