Now that his hard work is over, Michael Phelps is partying it up in Vegas with his boys!
Who's he texting????
I DIDN'T GET A TEXT FROM YOU LAST NIGHT, PHELPSY!!!
WHO'S THE WHORE????
Okay guys, I have to leave now. The next flight from Seattle to Vegas leaves in an hour, and I am going to be on it. Because, hey, if I can't land Phelps tonight, I'll totally settle for the dude standing next to him. It's a win/win for me!...
Hey, you know that Microsoft commercial that they reportedly paid Jerry Seinfeld $10M to be in?
It's about shoes.
And it's stupid.
Like Microsoft.
I am LOVING my Mac, you guys. Soooo much better than my PCs with Windows. Like, head and shoulders above.
But, anyway, if you wanna hear Microsoft's side of the story:
So what’s the deal? In an email we’ve obtained from Microsoft SVP Bill Veghte to all employees, he talks about the goals of the campaign. The overall goal is to inspire consumers and “tell the story of how Windows enables a billion people around the globe to do more with their lives today.†This first phase, he says, “is designed to engage consumers and spark a new conversation about Windows – a conversation that will evolve as the campaign progresses, but will always be marked by humor and humanity.â€
The ads are just an icebreaker, he ads, to reintroduce Microsoft to consumers. Later this month they’ll do a deeper dive, which I assume means talking about features.
I still think Microsoft sucks (reminder: Vista crashed on me FOUR TIMES the first -- and only! -- night I used it) and I love my Mac. />

Heh.
Apparently the Republicans have gotten into the habit of blaring Heart's "Barracuda" -- which I rock on in Guitar Hero, btw -- in reference to Sarah Palin. This is a problem for the girls of Heart, who basically hate everything Sarah Palin stands for.
They emailed the McCain/Palin campaign on Thursday afternoon, asking that they no longer use their song, but then it was played again on Thursday night.
"The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission," said their initial email to the campaign. When it was still played, Nancy Wilson called Entertainment Weekly to vent. "I think it's completely unfair to be so misrepresented. I feel completely fucked over," she said. She and her sister Ann then emailed this statement to EW.com: "Sarah Palin's views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women. We ask that our song 'Barracuda' no longer be used to promote her image. The song 'Barracuda' was written in the late '70s as a scathing rant against the soulless, corporate nature of the music business, particularly for women. (The 'barracuda' represented the business.) While Heart did not and would not authorize the use of their song at the RNC, there's irony in Republican strategists' choice to make use of it there."
Ouch. />

But I do.
I think it's just adorable and perfect and I want it. I love the cut and the lines and the belt and the color and the fabric and everything. Love it love it love it.
Anybody know who makes this?
What I don't want? Is her lipstick. Looks terrible.
Here's Paris at the launch party for Nylon magazine's new TV issue last night. She was partying sans Benji -- with a couple of girlfriends -- but apparently spent a good portion of the night talking about how much she missed h...
So Alec Baldwin's got this new tell-all coming out, titled A Promise to Ourselves: A Journey Through Fatherhood and Divorce and a source who's read an advance copy says that Alec talks in detail about contemplating suicide after his cruel voicemail to his 11-year-old daughter leaked to the press.
“He writes about how he was serious about suicide. He definitely put a lot of thought into the different ways he could accomplish it," says the source. Eventually, Alec writes that he decid...
LC just released the fall collection for her line, Lauren Conrad.
A lot of these pieces are super-cute ... if you're a size 2. And with prices hovering around the $200 mark, you may be better off just saving up for lipo if you're much bigger than that.

Did you guys know that nearly 2 out of every 3 people in the world caught at least some of the televised Beijing Olympics?
Additionally, 94% of the Chinese population tuned in at some point.
I knew Evil Beet should have offered to sponsor the Olympics this year. I had a feeling they were going to be big, but my boss was like, "No, no, that's a waste of money. No one'll watch it. We're saving up to sponsor Lindsay Lohan's next birthday." I never should have listened. ...

Lily Allen turned to her MySpace blog to discuss the drunken incident with Elton John at the GQ awards earlier this week:
Hi , now it's all died down i'm saying my side of what I can't believe is considered to be a story.
Elton john and I are friends. I was honoured when Elton asked me to present the GQ awards with him this year in association with Elton's AIDS foundation. Not only was it for a good cause but who would say no to Elton.
I'm not defending my drunkeness because i don't ne...
Shame on the photo service for even releasing this picture.
it's frightening!
Anna is a beautiful, talented girl and I adore her, but I seriously almost choked on my strawberry Mini Wheats (yummy!) when I saw this. I had to share. Just goes to show that no matter how rich or famous you are, no matter how young you were when you won your first Oscar, no matter how many hairstylists or make-up artists you have, you can still take a really, really, really bad photo.
At the press confe...
Lydia Hearst -- the socialite, the heiress, the malnourished -- took to the catwalk to walk for Mark Bouwer's spring collection this week, and, you gotta admit, this girl knows how to give face. It's not that Lydia hasn't been around forever -- she has -- but she's always been kind of eclipsed by Paris Hilton. But Paris is lying low these days, as are so many of our former tabloid favorites, and it's interesting to watch this new group of girls jostling for position as we prepare to elect a new ...
Hee hee!
I must have missed this pic from a couple weeks ago.
It's Lindsay saying goodbye to Samantha before she left for Sydney.
Adorableness!!!
Thanks Kristi!...
