Ouch.
Billboard has revised its policies -- just this week -- allowing an album sold through a single retailer to be on their charts.
This means The Eagles new double-disc -- sold only at Walmart -- takes the #1 spot away from Britney! The Eagles album sold 711,000 copies, compared to Britney's 290,000 (projections had been at 350,000). She'll have the #2 spot this week.
"We know that some retailers will be uncomfortable with this policy, but it was inevitable that Billboard's chart...
They can send bloggers all the freebies in the world; Katie Holmes' new movie is still going to bomb. [popbytes] Keira Knightley gets honest for Elle magazine. [INO] Petra Nemcova is adorable. [FListed] Mel Gibson's son is, of course, in rehab. [Celebitchy] Oh, good. Contestants will be able to play musical instruments on next season's American Idol. I look forward to everyone singing Stairway to Heaven. [Celebrity Smack] I love when Katherine Heigl smokes. Which is good, because that's always. [Celebslam] Video of Tyra Banks and the Vagina Puppet. Why use a puppet when Britney's is always available? [The Blemish] The hot new chick from House lends a hand to the WGA picketers. [Ninja Dude]
So I'm off to Las Vegas tomorrow for the Blog World Expo -- the first blogging convention of its kind. Spare me the teasing -- you won't think up anything to say that my friends haven't already. They think this is just the funniest thing ever. But you know what?
I am a blogger.
I am a dork.
And I am soooo excited!!!
(Plus, the guy I'm going with promises me we can go to Spearmint Rhino, and I'm one of those weird chicks who loves strip clubs, so I'm psyched on that.)
Yes, posting will continue as usual while I'm there. I'll just sit in the convention center and blog between sessions, like everyone else there. Because we're all huge dorks!!! I will be among my own kind at last.
So the reason I'm posting this is because I want to know if any of you will be there! Drop me a line at evilbeet@gmail.com if you'll be there and you wanna meet up for a drink. I love making new friends!!!
xoxo,

Hey, guys, remember that one time that Katie Holmes looked like she was the same height as Tom Cruise?
That was weird.
Thankfully, it's all over now.
And how fucking amazing does Katie look these days???
I need to convert to Scientology. Or train for a marathon.
Eh. Scientology sounds easier. Bring on the Xenu....
Remember how I was complaining about how the WGA picketers weren't being particularly creative?
Oh, I spoke too soon.
The best and brightest of our creative minds came up with "We write the story-a, Eva Longoria" as a chant.
Um, guys? Maybe just stick with "We're on strike." Because you're not exactly proving your worth with that other chant.
Desperate Housewives is one of many shows that will suspend production as a result of this strike, which is expected to last for months. Oth...
Legal stories are so boring.
Basically, Britney has to pay for K-Fed's lawyers because the Gods have decided that her trashy ass is rich and his comparably less trashy ass can't get a job. The poor baby is only getting $35,000/month in spousal and child support from Brit. And who the fuck can live on that and pay legal bills?
Soooo boring. I'd be dead asleep if I hadn't already had like 3 Red Bulls today. I have a problem with Red Bulls. ...
It happened the night before Halloween. Cops pulled her over on some traffic violation, smelled alcohol, tested her, and booked her.
Her blood alcohol level was 0.09, which is just above California's legal limit of 0.08. So, like, that really sucks. I mean, it's one thing if you get pulled over with a 1.5 or something (I have a friend who got pulled over and blew a .33, which is, like, award-winning in my book), but to get a DUI for a 0.09 just sucks. Like, you didn't even get the full rush ...
Hey, you guys, you know what's amazing?
The Butterfinger pies they have at Burger King now. I'm not even getting paid to say this, I swear. They're just really, really freaking good. I find myself driving to Burger King, like, every day to get one. Like I went to get a spray tan today and ended up at Burger King instead. The car just goes there now. I tried one on a fluke, and it was the best decision I've ever made. It's like a little slice of heaven in a cardboard box. They're better than...
On Monday, Riley Giles posted this on his MySpace blog:
ADVICE OF THE WEEK: if your a mom, with 4 kids, the best thing u can do for them right now is have a reality show. WE. DO. NOT. WANT. she had the nerve to ask us to be on. no thanks!
Oooh, ouch!
Doesn't it sting when a 25-year-old snowboarder fresh out of rehab is offering you parenting advice, Dina? And he's right?
Ouch. Ouch, ouch, ouch....
I had hoped it wouldn't come to this.
Seriously, I've been sitting on these pictures all morning like, "I really don't want to run these. Please let something happen. I really don't want to have to run these." But nothing has happened, guys, so I'm sorry.
Here's Paris and Nicky tooling around Japan. They're promoting some line of handbags and, tragically, helping to choose the new Miss Japan. Which is totally appropriate, because if anyone's in a position to select the woman who best r...

'It could all go away tomorrow if I'm at a club drinking like an asshole. Someone like Lindsay Lohan's personality is [more] famous than her performance. You've got to maintain some mystery. Part of me wants to go out and see my peers. But if I go to a club and get my picture in the press, then I am that young Hollywood asshole. That would shatter my world…. There's no way you get Tom Hanks' career without thinking about this stuff. Everyone turns 21. Not everyone gets to be in Indiana ...
