Hollywood Still Rough for Idol Contestant Joanna Pacitti

356_joannapacitti17_1200459280 It is not a happy day in Beetsville. Both Wendie and I are exceptionally ill. Lord only knows what's going around right now. I have been sleeping pretty much all day, and, when I have dreams, I am sick in my dreams. Seriously it's just me in various scenarios being sick. I don't think I've ever had that happen before. WTF is up with that??? And I'm so sad to be sick on Leo's birthday, but actually I think he is very happy this way, because I stay put in bed and he can lick my face alllll day ...

Happy Birthday, Leo!!!

dsc00653 You guys, my little puppy turns 1 today!!! It has been SUCH a joyous year having Leo in my life. We were going to go for a long walk in the forest today as his birthday present, where there would be lots of exciting things to smell, but Mommy is sick today, so instead we're going to lay in bed, convinced we have septicemia like that Brazilian model who died, because that is what we think whenever we don't feel well these days. Leo does not leave my side when I'm in bed, except on occasion ...

Miley Cyrus’ Most Expensive Mistake, Ever

miley_face2 Lucie J. Kim has filed suit in Superior Court against Miley Cyrus, on behalf of every Asian Pacific Islander in Los Angeles County.  This is just the newest development in Slantgate.  Kim is asking for the minimum amount that can be awarded for a civil rights violation-$4,000 for each person.  That totals FOUR BILLION DOLLARS. Kim isn't swayed by Miley's "aw, shucks, I'm just a young'un, ya'll know I love you and Jesus," apology and feels that Cyrus is on the same maturity level as Pari...

If You Compliment Mischa Barton, You Will Be Audited

56706339mischabarton2122009100141am I think it's only fair that I warn you of my current frame of mind; I just spent the morning on the phone fighting with the IRS. Having said that, I hate Mischa Barton.  Have I mentioned this before?  I guess you could say she is my Mandy Moore.  Like, she was doing okay for a minute, where she wasn't looking totally horrible.  I knew I'd be karmically punished if I said nice things about her and sure enough, I was.  Hellloooooo IRS.  So, I'm back on track now and willing to repay my ...

Joaquin Phoenix on Letterman as a Crazy Person

Technically I don't post on Evil Beet anymore... so I suppose that means I can't get fired! However, I'm sure EB would want y'all to see this festive Joaquin Phoenix appearance on Letterman last night. He was on to promote his new movie, Two Lovers. I'd say it went great! Well, except for he's clearly channeling Andy Kaufman at this point. For the record I still think it's all an act. A lovely capt. insano act. Keep it real! - Lars />Technically I don't post on Evil Beet anymore... so I suppose that means I can't get fired!

Mandy Moore Engaged!

56358998mandymoore212200993526am Since we know Beet despises Mandy Moore with the heat of a thousand suns, and she probably spontaneously combusted when she heard the news, I'll take this one. Mandy Moore is now engaged to on and off musician boyfriend, Ryan Adams.  They dated, broke up, she re-hooked up with DJ AM after his near-fatal plane crash.  Moore and Adams broke up the first time because he claimed to be allergic to the paparazzi.  I'm not sure what's changed but now they are back on in a big, marrying sort of way. Congrats ...

Well This Frees Up My Sunday Nights

56237944nicolettesheridan212200982206am Nicollette Sheridan, the primary reason to watch Desperate Housewives, is out.  Her last episode airs in April and the season ends in May.  No word yet on who will sleep with every husband on Wisteria Lane now. Any ideas on a replacement for DH?  I don't even know what else is on.  Maybe I should start getting into football.  Oh, wait....

Evil Beet: Now With More Diner Dash!!!

diner_dash1 OK, so it's rare that I'm actually excited when someone bugs me wanting me to embed their silly revenue-generating widget thingy on Evil Beet. I get a lot of these requests, and, typically, I don't even write back. But these people have a games widget THAT INCLUDES DINER DASH! I don't know if you guys have ever played Diner Dash, but it's like the most addictive thing on the planet. I once lost an entire summer of my life to Diner Dash. It's like crack cocaine. And by that I mean "wonderful."...

Did Julianne Hough Have Work Done?

julianne1 Maybe it's just verrrry different makeup, but I hardly recognized Julianne Hough at the Country Music Awards nominations this morning. For comparison, here's what Julianne looked like in November 2008: And, conspicuously, I couldn't find any photos of her for the end of December and the entire month of January. Where was she hiding? And why??? I thought she was really, really pretty to start out with. [gallery]...
