Conan O'Brien is almost definitely 100% out the door at NBC, but he's supposedly getting a $30 million dollar apology check. Of course these rumblings are fairly certain but still considered to be rumors as NBC and/or Conan's camp are staying silent on the details. On the flip, Conan's not shutting up about his distaste for the network and last night he once again came out swinging in his monologue. Some choice jokes:
"Hi, I’m Conan O’Brien -- future answer to a $200 “Jeopardy” questi...
Aight, aight. So I always have to admit whenever I critique people's fashion that I really have no business doing so. I am wearing flared jeans as I write this. Yes, flared. They're old and they're really comfortable and you would wear them too if you didn't have a will to live. ANYWAY! That being said, I was pretty disappointed across the board by the dress selections last night at The Critic's Choice Awards. With the exception of a couple (Heather Graham, Emily Blunt, Amy Poehler), everyone l...
Britney Spears was due in court today for a meeting with the commissioner who wants to check up on her progress regarding her conservatorship. Because TMZ reported the story early and the paparazzi is rabid, Britney's meeting was cancelled. While Britney seems to be doing much better and wants to (amicably) end the conservatorship that puts her father in charge of her, no papers have been filed or requests have been made.
Can we take a moment to appreciate Jamie Spears, by the way? Clearl...
Pete Wentz took his son Bronx on a walk around NYC yesterday and that little muffin was crying his face off the whole time. Poor guy was probably freezing, not to mention freaked out that there were guys taking his picture so that an asshole like me could later buy those photos and then post commentary about them on the Internet. It's either one of those things or his father's hair smells as bad as I assume it does. I don't hate Pete, but I hope the dude turned around and gave his kid a cookie...
Purdue University students have a reason to be pissed at Lady Gaga. The singer cancelled her show at the school on Thursday at the last minute, claiming to be sick. Then today, less than 24 hours later, Gaga took the stage at The Oprah Winfrey Show looking not even slightly ill. In fact, she downed a plate of chicken and waffles before her performance. The Purdue concert has been rescheduled, but I'm thinking that there was no illness and homegirl just wanted to rest up for her big day with L...
My former employer, Gawker, posted People Magazine's Heidi Montag plastic surgery before and after today. She looks like an alien.
Heidi claims to be addicted to plastic surgery and had 10 procedures done in one day recently. A couple years back, Heidi was open about the work she had done to her nose and breasts and said they were quirks that had bugged her her whole life. She is 23 years old and has an entirely different face from when we first met her on Laguna Beach as Lauren Conrad's friend...
Mischa Barton was snapped heading back to her hotel room in New York last night after a shopping spree at one of the city's finest and most exclusive retailers, Burlington Coat Factory. A vision in faux leopard, Mischa breezed past the photogs holding one of the store's signature satchels and attempted to flash the cameras a modest look to assure the folks back home that big city life hasn't changed her. There's no fooling these eyes, though. That is one top shelf lady who only deserves the finest ...
Tila Tequila is freakin' me out, man. Whenever I check her Twitter these days, I get so nervous. If she's not ranting about someone crossing her, she's announcing unrealistic plans (Ambassador to Vietnam? Yeah, OK!) or talking about herself like she's some wild, sexual being. She doesn't appear to sleep, have any friends offline except for Meghan McCain (and who knows when the last time they actually saw each other was) or realize that her behavior is odd. She's always like this, but the last cou...
“Um, right now I’m trying to just finish my record and getting through the last season of Gossip Girl for right now. So not so much thinking about that.”
- Taylor Momsen, responding to OK Magazine's question about her thoughts on the 7.0 earthquake in Haiti....

Conan O'Brien is done with NBC, so reports are saying. NBC has yet to officially confirm this news, but that's the word on the street/Internet. Conan's reign is scheduled to end next Friday, January 22nd. NBC had scheduled a hiatus for the show that was supposed to start the 25th, but in light of all of this crazy bullshit, Conan's taking off a few days early.
What was the final straw? I guess NBC/...
Russell Simmons Tweeted today that he heard through the Successful People Grapevine or whatever that Tiger Woods is donating a mobile hospital to Haiti help the earthquake victims. Smart move, Tiger. Real smart. This is exactly what he should have been doing the whole time. Kissing America's ass. I don't think it would be outrageous to say that the disaster in Haiti is the best thing to happen to Tiger Woods in months. And did I extra extra like that the news came from Russell Simmons? Yes. I loved that. Excellent touch,...
