A 9/11 Musical: Too Soon?

Have you guys heard about Clear Blue Tuesday? It's a movie musical about 9/11, and it's coming out on Friday in a few select theatres.  When I first heard about it, I was like "oh no," because I thought it sounded like a musical about the actual events that took place on September 11, and there is just no way that's going to be well received right now.  But it turns out it's just about the effect it had on people's lives in the years following the attacks, so that's pretty whatever. The thing is though, the tr...

Snooki’s New Boyfriend Is Proposing!

Ok, here's a story for all you romantics.  You know about Snooki's new boyfriend, Jeff Miranda, right?  The guy she's been dating for maybe a month and who might have some some pretty severe anger issues and who is also a fame whore?  Good news:  they're getting married! Well, that's a little premature.  Because you see that magazine cover up there with that love-crazed juicehead laying his heart on the line?  That's the proposal.  It's not something Jeff and Snooki were just thinking about, it's not a photo shoot/engagement announcement, it's the actual proposal. Are you guys dead from the heat of his passion yet?  If not, Radar has some excerpts from Jeff's interview with Steppin' Out that should finish you off:
“I want us to be together forever. I could see us having children. I want to pop the question to her. If we got married we would be the best parents around. She's so loving and puts everyone else before her self. She'll be a great mother.” He admits that Snooki is going to be shocked by his magazine cover proposal, but he isn’t worried that she’ll say no. "Once she deals with the shock I think they'll say yes. I really do. In fact, I know she'll say yes.” Miranda says he doesn’t think MTV will be very happy about his proposal but that isn’t stopping him from trying to get married to Snooki. “I love her and want to be with her,” Jeff gushes about the 22-year old tan reality TV star and promises that they’ll be happy together. “I will never break her heart. She's such a great girl. If people could see us together they would think we're a match made in heaven. People think I'm using her for fame. But that's bullshit.”
I'm so sorry I doubted you up in that first paragraph, Jeff. Clearly this is a sincere choice that you made here, the proposal on a magazine cover and everything.  I apologize for spreading the bullshit. />Ok, here's a story for all you romantics.  You know about Snooki's new boyfriend, Jeff Miranda, right?  The guy she's been dating for maybe a month and who might have some some pretty severe anger issues and who is also a fame whore?  Good news:  they're getting married!

Meet Jo Calderone (Or Lady Gaga’s Drag King Self)

Remember that photo shoot from Vogue Hommes Japan of the guy that may or may not have been Lady Gaga in drag? Yeah, that issue's out now, and it's definitely Lady Gaga in drag. Here's an excerpt from the interview with Jo Calderone (which is a really classy drag name, I think) that was posted on a blog belonging to Nicola Formichetti, Lady Gaga's stylist:
WHERE ARE YOU FROM? Palermo, Sicily HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE WHAT YOU DO / YOUR OCCUPATION? Mechanic for my dad’s business. This is the first time I’ve had my picture taken. WHEN DID YOU DISCOVER YOU WANTED TO TO THIS? Well, I always helped my dad at work, since I was a kid. I thought it would be fun to have my picture taken. WHAT ARE YOUR AMBITIONS? I’d love to own my own car shop, I have a bunch of my own ‘muscle’ cars. Maybe if I take some more pictures I can afford it. WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO LADY GAGA? I met her at a shoot Nick Knight was doing. She’s fuckin beautiful, and funny, and interesting. I was a little nervous for Nick to start shooting. She said, “Don’t be baby, you were “born this way.” I took her out after. The rest is private ;)
I don't get it.  Is this a promotional thing?  Is Lady Gaga sincerely interested in doing drag?  Is she just reminding us in any way she can that she's still special and different?  What do you guys think? One last question:  any tips for scrubbing the image of Jo Calderone banging Lady Gaga off of my brain? />Remember that photo shoot from Vogue Hommes Japan of the guy that may or may not have been Lady Gaga in drag?

Some People Are Just Too Attractive: The Christina Hendricks Edition

Ok, I don't watch Mad Men or anything (is that wrong of me?), but I've read this blog daily for a long, long time.  If you'll remember, Molls posted this picture of Christina Hendricks back in February, and ever since then, I've been keeping an eye on her.  Maybe it was the boobs, maybe it was the hair, or maybe it was her whole self, I don't know.  She's incredibly attractive, that's what I'm trying to say right now. London Fog apparently agrees with that sentiment, because they got Christina to star in their fall ad campaign.  They've released a couple of the ads, along with several behind-the-scenes pictures from her photo shoot, and you can check those out in the gallery below.  I strongly suggest you do that unless, you know, you don't find Christina Hendricks beautiful. Then you'd probably be too busy lamenting the fact that you don't have a soul.

Paris Hilton Had A Bad Morning

A man was arrested at around 6:30 this morning while attempting to break into Paris' house.  He might have been looking for weed or he might have just been a huge fan of The Simple Life, we don't know at this point.  But here's what we do know:
"In the early hours of this morning an armed man with two kitchen knives attempted to break in to Paris Hilton's home when she was sleeping," her rep said in a statement Tuesday. "The security cameras and alarm system were alerted and the police immediately came to the house and arrested the intruder who was attempting to break a window when they arrived. Paris is naturally shaken by the events but is unharmed and well."
Paris it at least well enough to Tweet about it, and she even posted a picture of the man being arrested in a glowing example of the importance of civic journalism:
So Scary, just got woken up to a guy trying to break into my house holding 2 big knifes. Cops are here arresting h

Welcome Back to Hollywood, Dolly Parton!

Well, ok, Dolly was in a couple episodes of Hannah Montana, and she's done a couple of other TV shows, but it's been a hell of a long time since she did an actual movie, or at least since she's done anything on the level of Steel Magnolias. But that's all about to change, because Dolly is set to star alongside Queen Latifah in a new movie called Joyful Noise.  Yes and yes. Here's the synopsis:
"[Joyful Noise] centers on an unlikely partnership between two strong-minded women who are forced to work together to save a small town gospel choir after budget cuts threaten to shut them down. Latifah will play a no-nonsense mother put in charge of the choir after the untimely death of the choir director. Her character's faced with the challenges of raising two teens while her husband is away in the military and getting the choir ready for a national competition if she hopes to keep the program afloat. Parton will play the widow of the choir director who had assumed she would take her late husband's position of leading the choir."
All right, I'm going to take a moment to explain my unreasonable excitement.  I'm from Tennessee, and the way I see it, there are two kinds of people from Tennessee (well, there are a lot of kinds of people from Tennessee, but stay with me):  Elvis people and Dolly Parton people.  Being from the end of the state opposite from Graceland, I fall strongly in Dolly Parton's camp.  I can't remember a holiday when I haven't watched A Smoky Mountain Christmas, and I couldn't even begin to count the number of trips I've made to Dollywood. Dolly just has this special, sincere quality about her, and there's something about her that feels like home. Production starts in January, so the movie is a while away, but I'm going to start getting psyched now.  Is anyone with me? />Well, ok, Dolly was in a couple episodes of Hannah Montana, and she's done a couple of other TV shows, but it's been a hell of a long time since she did an actual movie, or at least since she's done anything on the level of Steel Magnolias.

Britney Spears Doesn’t Bathe

Britney Spears has been looking pretty all right for the past couple of weeks, right? I mean, better than this, at least.  And do you know who you can thank for that turnaround?  You can thank her boyfriend, Jason Trawick, because he gave her an ultimatum:  she could either have her lack of personal hygiene or a boyfriend:
Brit's man Jason Trawick has worked himself up into a lather and told the singer that she smells a little bit toxic and needs to shower more often – or she’s dumped. Those close to her – although we’re guessing they’re not too close – say Britney refuses to wash her hair for days and often doesn’t change her clothes. A smell-conscious friend told Heat: “Britney’s not the type to cover herself in pretty-smelling lotions. She hates washing her hair, so sometimes it can smell downright sour. She’ll sometimes grab an outfit and wear it two or three times a week. Recently she put on a sundress for the third day in a row, but Jason refused to leave the house with her until she put on something else.” It sounds like Britney’s cleaned up her act since Jason mentioned her whiffy aroma, and has been changing more regularly. Friends have said the singer’s hygiene problem is down to laziness – and the fact that she’s so used to having an army of stylists dressing her that she can’t be bothered to do it herself. “She was the same when she was with K-Fed,” said one friend. “Thankfully, she’s trying more now because even she knows you couldn’t think of a more embarrassing reason for a relationship to break down.”
There's been recent sightings of Britney wearing the same outfit twice in one week, and her hair really speaks for itself, so I'm going to go ahead and believe this story, or at least believe that there's a grain of truth to it.  And while I think that's so sad, it's really just another chapter in the saga of Britney Spears and her zany ways. Hurry up with that new album, Britney, so we can once again wipe your crazy slate clean and praise you for good-time music! />Britney Spears has been looking pretty all right for the past couple of weeks, right?

Do You Want to Be Jennifer Lopez’s Personal Assistant?

Here's a hint:  the correct answer is "fuck no."  If you have any doubts about that, check out the job requirements listed in September's issue of Life and Style:
“The person has to be graceful under pressure, have a thick skin, and be resourceful in foreign countries, among others things,” an insider tells the Scene Queens. “You’ll be expected to travel at a moment’s notice and must know how to adjust in each city.” As expected, working for a celebrity like J. Lo isn’t a 9-5 job. “You can’t have a personal life — no baggage, significant others or pets allowed. The job is 6 days a week, at least 12 hour days with one day off, but you may not get off for weeks,” says the insider. “You’ll be on call 24/7 and you’ve got to be organized and always on point.” And while hanging out with A-Listers may be glamorous - the insider notes the candidate must be comfortable around “very high profile people” - there are more mundane duties as well. “You have to change diapers, work on little sleep and cook if the butler is away,” the insider continues. And: “You have to know when J. Lo has her snack time. She won’t say she’s hungry, you’re just expected to have food waiting.” But don’t worry, there will be some glamorous moments too; our source says qualified candidates get to help J. Lo dress for red carpet events and photo shoots. The salary for this gig? $55,000 to $65,000. Tickets to the Oscars may or may not be included!
Yeah, there's a specification that you can't have a personal life, and yes, you have to be telepathically in tune with Jennifer Lopez at all times, but OMG, you might get to go to the Oscars! But really, the only way I would ever sign up for this job with those demands is if I knew that Jennifer would recount behind-the-scene stories of Anaconda at least once a week.  I would gladly give up my personal life and my freedom to hear J. Lo talk about wrestling a snake with Ice Cube or getting creeped on by Jon Voight.  Gladly. />Here's a hint:  the correct answer is "fuck no."  If you have any doubts about that, check out the job requirements listed in September's issue of Life and Style: “The person has to be graceful under pressure, have a thick skin, and be resourceful in foreign countries, among others things,” an insider tells the Scene Queens. “You’ll be expected to travel at a moment’s notice and must know how to adjust in each city.” As expected, working for a celebrity like J.

Love It or Leave It: Ke$ha’s New Look

I'm not talking about the cute hat or the incredibly sparkling coat or the inexplicable blue feathers.  I'm not even talking about all of those things together.  I'm talking about the gold tooth. On one hand, it's a little silly.  A gold tooth, Ke$ha, really, that's the look you're going for?  But on the other hand, I get it.  It sort of fits together nicely with the whole gold Trans Am, whiskey-loving, "I don't take myself very seriously. I don't think I should or could" thing she has going on, and you just have to turn on a radio to see that it's working for her. For me, I would leave the gold tooth in a Public Enemy music video where it belongs.  For Ke$ha, I think it's just right.  What about you guys? />I'm not talking about the cute hat or the incredibly sparkling coat or the inexplicable blue feathers.  I'm not even talking about all of those things together.  I'm talking about the gold tooth.

Are You Excited About The Joaquin Phoenix Documentary?

If you are excited, good, I'm glad we can share that.  If not, go ahead and watch this trailer so you can listen to someone compare life to water on a mountain or something and watch Joaquin fight some dude on a bed and show off his belly, among several other things. The movie comes out on September 10, and there's still confusion over whether the documentary is supposed to be for real or not.  If it is for real, then I hope he can work out whatever caused his plethora of issues.  If it's not for ...

Sadie Frost’s Memoir: Intense and Mostly About Jude Law

Ok, so Sadie Frost, Jude Law's ex-wife, has written a book. It's called Crazy Days, and it's a tale of, among a couple of other things, her life with Jude. Jude made a fuss about it and tried to prevent the release of the book, but that apparently didn't work, because The Daily Mail is serializing the book so that we all can know of its wonders. This first bit that The Daily Mail released tells of 25-year-old mother and wife, Sadie Frost, meeting 19-year-old Jude Law on a movie set in 1992 and how she began to develop feelings for Jude:
Filming began in 1992. Gary [her husband] was as devoted as ever and I knew that by even entertaining thoughts of Jude, I was jeopardising an idyllic home life, the most secure relationship I'd ever had. I crushed my unwelcome ideas about Jude, but it wasn't easy. I was beginning to prefer this straightforward young man to my intellectual older husband. Still, I tried to reject my dark thoughts, until it became clear that Jude was interested in me, too. A night shoot in which we sat in a car was almost painful, so powerful was the force drawing me to him. He turned to me, his stare intense and hungry. I allowed my gaze to take him in as his almond-shaped, avocado-green eyes thundered their way into my soul. His head was shaved and he was wearing tight black trousers. Time slowed down inside our bubble and I realised we were destined to be together. 'Cut!' shouted the director, shaking us back to reality.
I absolutely love Sadie's writing style.  I feel like I'm reading a V.C. Andrews book, it's wonderful. On a more serious note, Sadie discusses at length her experiences with postpartum depression.  She writes of taking care of her first child alone while Jude worked and how she became so depressed that one night she cut herself with a pair of scissors.  She also alludes to that time when her daughter Iris, who was two at the time, accidentally swallowed some ecstasy at a birthday party and how the media's reaction to that incident caused her depression to intensify until a friend asked her to go to a clinic.  Instead, Sadie went to see Jude, and it became clear then that their marriage was over. So dramatic, you guys. />Ok, so Sadie Frost, Jude Law's ex-wife, has written a book. It's called Crazy Days, and it's a tale of, among a couple of other things, her life with Jude.

A Tila Tequila Update

So a lot of you guys are questioning the legitimacy of Tila Tequila's harrowing tale of violent Juggalos.  That's cool, that's fine, I totally understand.  But here are some more developments. - TMZ has a short video of Tila on stage.  It isn't long at all, but you can see some guy trying to climb on the stage, and you can see the audience begin to throw things at her.  You can also see that this chaos began when she took her shirt off. - According to the San Francisco Chronicle, plans were made to attack Tila before the concert even took place.  Their article includes Twitter updates from a guy at the concert, along with a link to Tila Tequila's blog, and if you go through those comments you can see numerous threats, along with numerous pleas for Tila to just stay home. - The county sheriff is on Tila's side.  He told TMZ that "things got out of hand" and that the concert was a "nightmare."  He knows because he was already on the scene when the Tila Tequila affair went down, taking care of some guy who got stabbed. - She's already out and about and covering her face with stupid sunglasses and bandaids. Tila Tequila is definitely exaggerating (surprise!), but there's some truth to her original story.  It's clear that the Juggalos didn't want her there, and understandably so; I would be pissed if she showed up anywhere I paid to be.  It's also clear that there were already some bad vibes, what with that guy getting stabbed and everything.  I don't know, but whatever happened, I'm going to do the unthinkable and keep my eye on Tila Tequila for the next few days.  It should be a fun ride. />So a lot of you guys are questioning the legitimacy of Tila Tequila's harrowing tale of violent Juggalos.  That's cool, that's fine, I totally understand.  But here are some more developments. - TMZ has a short video of Tila on stage.  It isn't long at all, but you can see some guy trying to climb on the stage, and you can see the audience begin to throw things at her.  You can also see that this chaos began when she took her shirt off. - According to the San Francisco Chronicle, plans w...
