Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson Got Divorced for Many Reasons

A photo of Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson But this photo from New Year's Eve kind of says it all, doesn't it? In the days following one of the more surprising celebrity break ups in recent memory (I know, I know, Sarah called it, but not everyone is as astute as we are), there have been all sorts of reports naming the reasons why the marriage failed.  However, the only official thing we know is that tired old "irreconcilable differences" claptrap, so I'm going to bring you guys a couple of rumors that I heard on the street. 1. A...

Prom: Jessica Simpson Style!

A photo of Jessica Simpson And before you guys start, this isn't a story about how some random Texas high school chose "Leopard Print and Tears" as their prom theme, no matter how much you or I wish that were the case.  No, this is just another story of dear Jessica plowing through adversity and expanding her fashion empire with a line of prom dresses, available at David's Bridal. So what do we think?  Jessica said that the line was inspired by designer gowns that she's worn, and that she wanted to make that style "accessible and affordable for teens." Â...

Ke$ha Tells Vanity Fair All About Her Kinship With Muppets, Her Love Of Glitter, and Her Decrease in Douchery

A photo of Ke$ha in concert Say what you will about Ke$ha (no really, say whatever you want, I can smack talk Ke$ha all day long), but the girl gives a damn good interview.  Luckily for us, she had a little chat with Vanity Fair here recently, and she didn't disappoint.  I'm going to share my favorite excerpts, but I really recommend reading the whole thing.  Trust me, you guys, Ke$ha will give you a giggle on this dreary Saturday morning. On Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve,you told Ryan Seacrest that your resolutio...

The Intimacy Experiment Day Seven: It’s Just a Sweet, Sweet Fantasy Baby

Great. Just great. Another totally crap song from my earlier years that will be stuck in my head 'til I get the NEXT totally crap song from my earlier years stuck in my head. I'm on the home stretch of the the K-Y Intimacy Experiment, hitting up day seven out of ten, which centers around the idea of no relational limitations today by developing a 'love map.' What's a 'love map,' you ask? Why, I'll tell you. According to Dr. John Money of Johns Hopkins University, who coined the term back in 1980, the 'love map' refers to the 'sexual template expressed in every individual's erotic fantasies and practices.' In short? HOO-daddy, SEXUAL FANTASIES. This 'love map' tells of your base desires that trigger an erotic, physical response and validates where our turn-ons (and offs) come from. We were to journal, and discuss, those things that turned us on, even if it was unexplainable. We sat down, took out a pen and paper, and both went at it, starting with previous sexual encounters that we'd experienced together, and then with other partners. (What, you're going to judge me because boyfriend's not the only one that I've slept with? It's not 1942 you know.) I thought I'd be uncomfortable discussing my previous sexual endeavors with my, you know, husband, and equally uncomfortable hearing about his, but guys? I wasn't. I guess if I'm talking about myself, there's not much I CAN be uncomfortable about, since it's kind of one of my favorite past-times. I digress. (See? I get all carried away, talking about myself, and we're totally off topic. You can imagine where this afternoon's conversation between my husband and I ended up, badum-ching.) After making our lists, in private, we were to review them on our own. We determined whether or not the noted experience still turned us on (um, yes) and if there were any that we now regretted, in the light of day (hardly). We hooked up a little later after our reflections and shared and compared. It turned out that we had a lot of similar experiences outside of our relationship, and shared a lot of turn-ons that had occurred within our relationship, too. We were going to then separate and do a list of turn-offs, only to reconvene later, but after sharing our lists, we took a little afternoon siesta and THAT. Is all I will say about that, thankyouverymuch. Day Seven? Total win, and thank you to K-Y for giving us such great ideas to begin stirring up old ideas. You guys can check out the other bloggers that are participating in the experiment over at K-Y's Facebook page, Couples Place, and also check out The Bachelorette's Trista and Ryan's page to find out how they're dealing. DON'T FORGET - you have a few days left to enter for your own kit, which will include the experiments that I've undergone and documented here, and some that were too hot to talk about in such a public forum (OK, not too hot to talk about, but sponsors don't want this turning into a complete porn site, believe it or not). Leave your name and website in the comments and tune in after February 14th to find out if you've won (I mean, I'll contact you by email one way or the other, but come on. IT'S FUN). I wrote this posting while participating in a blog campaign on behalf of K-Y® Brand and also received product samples to help facilitate my review. In addition, K-Y® Brand sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate. /> Great. Just great.

Lady Gaga is One Paranoid Bitch

photo of lady gaga posing in raw meat I was reading through all the Lady Gaga coverage out there today when I saw this piece about an interview the singer recently did with Anderson Cooper. In it Gaga reveals that she thinks that deep down all the public wants is to see her not just fail, but to die of a drug overdose. From the Telegraph: Lady Gaga, whose new single Born This Way was released today online, said: "That's what everyone wants to know, right? What's she gonna look like when she dies? What's she gonna look like when she...

Britney Spears Wants To Get Back Into Acting

Britney Spears announced during a Q&A on her Twitter page yesterday that she's ready to get back into acting and would love to work with either director Todd Philips or Judd Apatow. Britney hasn't done a movie since her first,  Crossroads, which tanked with both critics and fans alike, but she has done successful guest spots on Saturday Night Live and How I Met Your Mother. We also can't forget that long before we knew her as a singer, we knew her as the little girl with the hammy personality on The...

Meg Ryan’s Engaged to John Cougar Mellencamp?!

Former America's Sweetheart and current Frankenface Meg Ryan was photographed leaving her beau John Cougar Mellencamp's recent show in Toronto with a thick gold band on a certain special finger. The actress and the musician have been quietly dating for a couple of months now. What do I think of these two together? I think they're perfect for each other. Neither one of them is the huge star that they used to be, but they were both at one time considered to be one of the best in their respec...

Love It or Leave It: Bald Bieber

A photo of Justin Bieber on the Jimmy Kimmel Show I feel like this is the third time or so that I've woken up on a Friday morning to discover that Justin Bieber did something different with his hair. Slowly but surely, I'm being conditioned to sleep fitfully through the night on Thursday, and then wake up with the chills and the body aches and the desperation that I know down to my core can only be caused by one thing: the dreaded Bieber Fever. But enough about my health problems, because much more important things are happening in the world - ...

It’s Here, If You Care – Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way’

I posted a comment on my Facebook earlier about this being the beginning of the end of days, and cheekily asked whether or not I was the only one on earth who didn't give a shit about the always-obnoxious Lady Gaga and her crap club music. Apparently there's a lot of Lady Gaga fans, 'cause I got a lot of shit for that. So naturally, if it stinks, I bring it here - do you guys give a crap about Lady Gaga and her head-scratching interpretations of music? Moreover, can you even tolerate listening to this song for more than thirty-five seconds?

The 2011 Kids’ Choice Awards Nominees Are In!

photo of 2011 kids choice awards music pictures The nominations are in, and it speaks volumes for what the kids of today's generation are into. I remember Nickelodeon, way back before they jumped on the awards show bandwagon, and shows like Salute Your Shorts, You Can't Do That on Television, Double Dare, Are You Afraid of the Dark? were, you know, the height of child entertainment. Today, unfortunately, we have shows like Big Time Rush, which makes me want to slit my own wrists, and the Sprouse twins, which are ... never mind. They're st...

Quotables: Lindsay Lohan Would NEVER Steal, You Guys

photo of lindsay lohan pictures at beverly hills store "I would never steal, in case people are wondering. I was not raised to lie, cheat, or steal ... [also] what i wear to court shouldnt be front page news. it's just absurd." Ah, some gems of wisdom direct from our girl Lindsay Lohan's Facebook. She is, at the very, very, minimalistic least, half-right and I totally believe that yes, what she wears to court should not be front-page news. However, that other stuff about her being raised not to lie, cheat, or steal or snort coke off of the cracks of the nastiest bitches in LA ? Not quite sure I'm all a...
