So there are all these photos today of Avril Lavigne and Deryk Whibley leaving Koi and I'm just flipping through them like, "Yeah, who cares," but then with her there is some girl who looks vaguely familiar and I'm not sure why. The photo agency doesn't ID her at all. So why do I know her? Did I used to party with her in LA? Did she date someone I know? I mentally flip through every reality TV show in the history of mankind and can't place her on any of those. Who is she?
And then it hits me: That's B...
This is a video of a Jodeci concert in Australia. Please go to around 1:50, where a totally cracked-out Jo-Jo passes out on stage, hits his head on the floor, and then lies there for the remainder of the song while K-Ci continues singing. />

You guys may or may not have noticed, but a certain page of this blog has, in the past months, somehow become a de facto discussion board for Jon & Kate Plus 8 fans (and critics). If you don't believe me, click here and read the comments.
A popular point of discussion over there is a blog called Truth Breeds Hatred, which is supposedly written by the sister of Aunt Jodi, who is married to Kate Gosselin's brother. If you watch the show, you know that Aunt Jodi was very involved in the first seasons of the show, basically bending over backwards to accommodate Kate's every babysitting need -- sometimes watching all eight of the Gosselin kids, overnight, in addition to her own four children. For free! And then when she didn't show up in the most recent season, people started suggesting that Kate was bitter because Jodi's patient and kind mothering skills were making Kate look awful in comparison, and also noting that the producers offered to pay Jodi for appearing on the current season -- she had been doing all of this shit for free up until then -- but that Kate put her foot down, said "no one gets paid for this show except our family" and booted Aunt Jodi out of the kids' lives.
The Truth Breeds Hatred blog discusses all this from an insider's perspective -- confirming the rumors and basically painting Kate as the most horrid, despicable, selfish person on the planet. But was the blog really written by Jodi's sister? Were the things she said about Kate actually true?
Today, Truth Breeds Hatred ran a video clip of Jodi, who seems genuinely crushed by how Kate betrayed her, and confirming that her sister does write the blog, and that it's the truth.
I kind of hate how fascinated I am to watch all this play out, but I really do love it.

Despite a very strong opening Friday by The House Bunny, Tropic Thunder barely edged it out for the #1 film this weekend, with $1M more in ticket sales.
The Rainn Wilson comedy The Rocker came in a disappointing twelfth place with just $2.8M in ticket sales. To be fair, I'd never heard of that movie before in my life, and it still probably took in more during its opening weekend than Jessica Simpson's Blonde Ambition did with its entire theatrical run. But if Rainn had the good sense to get a DUI a week ago, he definitely coul...
Hayden Panettiere is finally talking about that little incident where her mom called the cops at three o'clock in the morning because her father was being physically violent.
"It was blown way out of proportion by a sheriff who wanted his fifteen minutes of fame," she says. "My family is wonderful -- so very happy. We're all great."
Uh, yeah.
I think most people can relate to Hayden's situation. When your mom calls the cops at three in the morning -- and the only discernible problem in...
The NBC coverage of the 2008 Olympics reportedly attracted more viewers than any other event in U.S. television history. Frankly, I'm not sure that figure is particularly meaningful. I mean, what other event involves seventeen days of coverage? Oh, right, the Atlanta Olympics from 1996, which was previously the most-watched event in U.S. television history. But that was over a decade ago, and today the Olympic events are broadcast on multiple cable channels, which are viewable in more household...
"We aren't jumping like we usually do. We don't think he is going to tell the backstory, so the whole thing just seems kind of icky ... When someone seems like they are hiding something, it's a big turnoff to the public, who want to share in celebrities' lives. No one really cared about Clay Aiken becoming a single dad, either."
Tabloid mag editors dish on why nobody wants to run a big story on Ricky Martin's mysteriously sourced new twin boys. ...

The photo agency assures me that this is a photo of Joey Lawrence.
He was at some Z-list gifting suite to promote some brand of sunglasses (other attendees: Nick D'Anna, Holly Huddleston, Brian Peeler, Jeremy Green, Angelina Jolie) so there aren't any photos of him without the sunglasses, but still.
Damn.
I'd get with that.

It's been a slow metamorphosis, but I'm finally starting to understand what Katie Holmes is going for.
The super-short haircut? The fedora? The ridiculous pants?
You guys, Katie wants to date Lindsay Lohan.
I can't believe I didn't see this before.
