Chace Crawford: Yup, Probably Straight

Here's a cute clip of hottie Chace crashing and burning when the girls at Grazia gave him a pop fashion quiz. Any self-respecting gay man knows that Milan is one of the world's fashion capitals. /> Here's a cute clip of hottie Chace crashing and burning when the girls at Grazia gave him a pop fashion quiz.

Look Who’s Helping!

Charlize Theron was inducted today as a UN Messenger of Peace, where she'll focus on ending violence against women and girls around the globe. The South African native told reporters she will take on her new responsibilities "very humbly, with a very excited heart." I didn't know this about Charlize, but, apparently, at age fifteen she witnessed her mother shoot her alcoholic father to death while he was threatening the family. I can't even imagine what a horrific and life-altering experienc...

Scarlett Johansson Is Obnoxiously In Love

You know, sometimes I ask myself, "Why do we build these celebrities up just to tear them down? To take such joy in their personal sorrows? Why do I participate in such an industry?" And then I read this sort of bullshit from Scarlett Johansson, in a new interview with Allure, where she's ohhhhhh so in love with her quickie hubby Ryan Reynolds -- for instance, when told by the interviewer that she inspired Katy Perry's "I Kissed a Girl," Scarlett said "That's flattering, but my lips are ki...

Jen and John: Still Going Strong

The couple were spotted partying it up in NYC again on Thursday night, where a source says they were "nonstop, dirty-dancing machines." Ewww. For some reason, the thought of John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston "dirty dancing" makes me cringe. Neither of them really seems like the type. Anyway, apparently JenAn further fueled rumors that she's preggers by refusing to drink alcohol at the club. Meh, I don't think she's knocked up. I think she and John are just having fun with the media. ...

Ashlee Simpson Hasn’t Given Birth Yet

Despite the rumors all over the Internets this weekend, Ashlee Simpson is still as pregnant as ever. Pete actually phoned into the TRL finale last night to assure fans that Ashlee hadn't gone into labor yet -- although he skipped the finale, on which his band performed, which means she's due any minute now. Although anyone with basic math skills could have figured that one out. Poor Ashlee. I'm pretty sure she's past her due date at this point. She must be so freakin' ready to pop out this kid....

First Puppy Update

Now that the election's over and we've all given up hope for a quick economic rebound, the nation's energies are focused largely on one thing: the First Puppy. When will the First Family get the First Puppy? Not until they move into the White House, said Michelle in an interview with 60 Minutes Sunday night. "We're on call-mode on the dog front," she said. "Because the deal with the dog was that we would get the dog after we got settled. Because as responsible owners we - I don't think it would be good to get a dog in the midst of transition. We cut that deal with the kids before ... America knew about it. So they're - they're good with it." The above clip is of Michelle talking about when the news first sank in that Barack had been elected President. It's a cute clip because she and Barack end up talking like -- well, like a husband and wife talk. Not like perfect cookie-cutter politician people, just like normal people, bickering jokingly about the demands Michelle puts on her husband. It's endearing, really, in a way that a First Family hasn't been endearing in a very long time. /> Now that the election's over and we've all given up hope for a quick economic rebound, the nation's energies are focused largely on one thing: the First Puppy.

The Return of James Van Der Beek

Just when it looked like his career was up Dawson's creek without a paddle, James Van Der Beek is getting a second chance at being a professional actor. James Van Der Beek has signed onto a lead role with the Fox pilot Eva Adams. The hour-long project revolves around Adam, a self-centred and sexist sports agent who gets a healthy dose of comeuppance when a witch's spell turns him into a woman. Now, he must deal with the same kind of shabby treatment he used to dole out. Van Der Beek will play Connor, a former ...
