Everyone at this LA premiere was dressed like the '80s came back and they were angry. Ahem.

Audrina Patridge: FAIL. I'm itchy and hot just looking at that get-up.
Michelle Rodriguez: GIANT FAIL. She looks like she rolled out of bed and went to try on prom dresses at Forever 21.
Zoe Saldana: It's like Tonya Harding got a hold of a perfectly nice dress and asked herself how she could add a little more "white trash" to it. Haaaate it so much, but Zoe's so damn beautiful she can get away with almost anyt...
Is it wrong that I'm a little obsessed with Miley Cyrus? You know what? It's definitely wrong. You know how I know that? Because I'm a heterosexual, 27-year-old female, and I'm watching this performance and thinking, "Holy shit that girl is hot." So, I mean, Lord only knows what the men of the world are thinking about this child. I will be way, way more comfortable with everything about Miley Cyrus when she turns 18. Here's Miley performing "Party in the USA" at some place that isn't America on Wednesday. She dry-humps the air around 1:07 (thanks Cady for the heads-up!). I don't think we can be upset about the dry-humping when we can see her damn butt cheeks hanging out of the bottom of her shorts. Oh, Miley, can you be an adult already so we can all stop being upset about the enormous sexuality with which you've been so successfully marketed?
Do you know who I am not obsessed with? This small child named Justin Bieber who sings the "One Less Lonely Girl" song. They never played it on the radio in Seattle, but I've been in Scottsdale the past week and it is all anyone ever plays on the radio. The first time I heard it I was like, "Oh, this is a lesbian singing a song. How lovely. Trite, but lovely." Then, as it continued, I began to get an inkling that this might be a male singing. Then I asked about it on Twitter and I was informed that it was this Justin Bieber person I've been hearing about lately. And a reader on Facebook linked me to a fan page called No Justin Bieber you don't love that girl, you're 12, and I think that about sums up my feelings on the subject. I watched the song's video (above), and all I could think was that if this child approached me on the street and wanted me to hand a piece of paper that said "I will shower you with kisses" to some girl, I would call both their parents immediately.
You know why I think I'm most upset about this? It's obviously being marketed to really young girls, and the mere implication that a pre-teen girl needs a goddamn boyfriend to keep from being lonely is downright abhorrent. Girls, this concept that you should be dating and in love in middle school to keep from being sad and alone is a LIE THE MEDIA IS SELLING TO YOU. DON'T BUY IT. You don't need anything to do on Valentine's Day but your fucking homework. You have the rest of your life to fall in love, so take some time to learn math while someone's still teaching it to you for free. Oh, and you know what's not going to help you land a quality man when you are old enough to be dating? Miley-style booty shorts and public dry-humping. That's a lie, too. Save that shit for the bedroom. You're welcome for all the free advice. />

I know I'm supposed to be really really excited about this movie, but I'm not. Sorry. The animation does look kind of cool, but if I wanted to see weird alien-looking people have sex I'd just track down the Kim Kardashian sex tape. The $230M James Cameron blockbuster hasn't even been released in North America, but it's leading in Golden Globes nods. Talk about hype!
I'm also unexcited about Leona Lewis's music video for the theme song, "I See You." I am unexcited about the cheap-ass special effects they used in her video after spending over $200 million animating this film. And I am least excited about the dress she is wearing, which I hope did not cost anyone more than $5.
Anyway. I know bunches of you want to see it, so here it is. Enjoy! />

Yeah, I just make the headlines like that to get all the pedophile traffic in. Oh, pedo traffic, rain down on me. Let's work together to turn all your disgusting, freakish Google searches into money for me.
Seriously, though, I'm not especially up in arms about this video of 9-year-old Noah Cyrus singing "Smack That" backstage at one of big sis Miley's concerts while dancing with a level of sexuality echoed by every fucking pre-teen dance troupe in the country. Like, really, I used to live next door to this four-year-old boy who knew all the lyrics to "Californication" and ran around singing and dancing dirty to it all day long and no one was all like "GASP! THAT CHILD IS A WHORE!" We were just like, "Dude, that's a cute kid. Who is probably gay."
Kids today know the lyrics to "Smack That," because, ya know, it was on the radio forevah. And nine-year-old girls have been doing dance moves like that since their 22-year-old dance teachers have been training them to. And by that I mean since the '80s. It's not like she's peeing on R. Kelly. Ease up, peeps. />

I know, I know, it's been contest fever around here lately. What can I say? It's the holiday season, and people want to give you guys free shit. In November, we teamed up with Disney and The Proposal to offer you guys an all-expenses-paid trip to Napa Valley for the best proposal story. Our winner, Liz (read her entry here), is so excited about getting to go on the romantic honeymoon she and her husband missed out on the first time around. Last week, Zelda Lily teamed up with KY's Yours+Mine and Intense to give away TEN free sample packs to the folks who needed it most. (Read the hilarious and touching winning entries here.)
This week, we're excited to team up with Rhapsody and Chili's to offer you guys an all-expenses-paid trip to the U.S. music festival of your choice. HOLY SHIT, right? The prize includes airfare for two, a hotel stay, $200 spending money, and two days at the music festival you choose.
You enter by submitting a video of you or a friend singing the famous Chili's "Baby Back Ribs" song. I'm not kidding. I didn't come up with this, I swear, but I know you all have sung it to yourselves at some point.

I'm a little obsessed with Jersey Shore. It's like my fascination with Bad Girls Club -- there's just something so appealing about watching really, really trashy people interact, and sitting proudly in judgment as you realize that, thank God, someone out there is living their life more appallingly than you.
That said, I've been a little horrified by the trailer MTV's been running of the tiny, big-mouthed, drunk-tastic chick Snooki getting cold-cocked in the face by a giant dude in a bar (it's at around 0:18 in the vid above). It's a stunning and seemingly unwarranted act of violence, and MTV's been exploiting the hell out of it (the man -- not a cast member of the show -- was arrested, plead guilty, and given probation). And, good Lord, there's been backlash -- not just from angry people on the Internet, but from MTV's sponsors (they've lost two so far over this). We've been covering it over at our sister site if you want the deets.
After initially defending the episode and claiming they wouldn't change its content, MTV caved and announced that they're pulling the punch scene from the upcoming episode. They're going to air the after-effects of the punch heard 'round the world, but they're not going to air the actual scene.
"What happened to Snooki was a crime and obviously extremely disturbing," MTV said. "After hearing from our viewers, further consulting with experts on the issue of violence and seeing how the video footage has been taken out of context to not show the severity of this act or the resulting consequences, MTV has decided not to air Snooki being physically punched in next week's episode."
Wow. I don't know that I've ever seen MTV issue a mea culpa like this about one of their trashy TV shows. They must have been taking some serious heat. The good news is that this demonstrates the power of anti-violence groups in this country and the gravity with which domestic violence issues are handled. The bad news is that now I don't get to see the whole punch scene. :( />

I COMPLETELY AGREE.
You guys absolutely must read the piece Sex Rehab cast member Duncan Roy wrote at The Daily Beast. It was no surprise to me that he shuns Dr. Drew and the entire "televised rehab" process. I've talked more than once about my enormous distaste for Dr. Drew Pinsky, whom I believe exploits addicts at their most vulnerable time to create fame and fortune for himself. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Fame is an addiction, one that is every bit as destructive to most of these people as their relationships wit...
Here's a hint: She's one of a handful of beautiful women in the country who didn't help Tiger Woods cheat on his wife.
That's right!
It's Tiger Woods' wife!
Elin Nordegren was spotted out in public with her Tiger-spawn, little Sam Woods, but without the wedding ring and engagement band she typically wears. She doesn't seem to be so into Tiger's announcement that he's quitting (and killing!) golf to focus on being a better husband. And I say good for her! I'm not exactly sure where I'd draw th...
Last weekend, Tiger skipped the Chevron World Challenge, a tournament he founded, and NBC's telecast was down 54% compared with last year, when he competed in the event. Experts predict that golf may never fully rebound.
"Without Woods, televised tournaments are like a major motion picture without a star's name above the title -- rarely do people go to see the flick," said Bill Carroll, VP and director of programming at Katz TV Group. "Now only die-hard golf fans will watch the tournaments."

Rachel McAdams looked S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G at the Sherlock Holmes premiere in London on Monday. I am dying over the gorgeousness of the loose braid over the shoulder. Dying. I am getting hair extensions just so I can do that. I'm getting them tomorrow. I swear. Looooove it.

I don't know that there are really words to express my disdain for Michael Lohan. It hurts me to write about him; it hurts me to think about him. If I had to play a game of Fuck Marry Kill with Michael Lohan, Joe Francis and Brandon Davis, I think I'd choose to kill myself instead. He's like the most evil thing on the planet, and, like I always say, it's a goddamn miracle Lindsay Lohan turned out so well with him as a parent.
That said, someone finally got it right and threw him in jail ...
