Even After Two Oscars, Hilary Swank Still Think She Has to Get Fat for a Role

The super-svelte Hilary Swank is reportedly going to put on between 20 and 30 pounds to play the lead in French Women Don't Get Fat, an upcoming film based on a bestselling novel. Hilary's also a producer on the film. You've already won two Oscars, Hilary. Why on earth do you think you need to get fat for a role now? We take your acting prowess seriously, sweetheart. ...

Tucker Bounds the Bunny Rabbit!

I got this email from a reader the other day:
So Tucker Bounds is on TV talking about something, and all I can see are giant bunny ears coming out of his head. It's a brilliant image, and I thank you for it!
She was, of course, referencing this post. Mr. Bounds -- John McCain's campaign spokesman -- is all over the television right now, as would be expected. And I don't really care what he's talking about in this clip, but I do think it's funny that his tie, which I'm sure looked red in the mirror, looks pink on television. It's Easter come early! I just think the guy has the funniest Republican rich-kid name ever. And, look, I grew up with a lot of Republican rich kids, so I would know. I'd list some of their names here for comparison, but my website has this teensy tiny problem of having a really good Google page rank, so I'd be in a lot of trouble if they happened to Google their own names. Which most of them probably do hourly. So just trust me when I say that Tucker Bounds really has the creme de la creme of Republican rich-kid names. Tucker Bounds for VP! /> I got this email from a reader the other day: So Tucker Bounds is on TV talking about something, and all I can see are giant bunny ears coming out of his head.

Did John McCain Vet This Woman At All?

Seriously it's like Senator McCain had one too many shots of tequila (perhaps with Bristol Palin?) and was like, "Hey, ya know what would be funny? If I made my running mate that hot governor chick from Alaska. Ya know, the one with the glasses? And the tits? Like, 'You people want a woman in the White House? Okay, fine, but at least let's make her a hot one.' L. O. L. Fuck it, let's do it. I mean, how funny would that shit be? Make it happen. NOW! And someone pour me another drink." And t...

Hi, Bristol!

Ya know, this is the problem with pulling a VP candidate out of thin fucking air. I mean, choosing a chick who touts family values after being the mayor of a town with a population under 10,000 before putting in a year and a half as the governor of a state with less than a million people: her kids don't know early enough to cover their asses. You'd better believe Meghan McCain's been keeping tabs on exactly who's taking pictures of her doing what and if they're being tagged on Facebook since...

ANTM Alums Doing Things Other Than Marrying Bradys

Congratulations to Yaya DaCosta, who has landed a lead role in the off-Broadway production of The First Breeze of Summer, starring alongside respected thespian Leslie Uggams. Yaya's performance is getting rave reviews. Yaya was the runner-up on her cycle of America's Next Top Model. The winner was Eva Pigford, who promptly changed her name to Eva Marcille and scored a couple of hosting gigs on BET as well as some small guest roles on the CW. ...

Mel B Doesn’t Talk To Victoria Beckham

It looks like friendship does, in fact, occasionally end. Spice Girl Mel B tells British magazine Closer that she is "not in touch much" with Victoria Beckham, even though the two of them live just a few miles apart in LA. "Victoria and I are very different," she explains. "People bracket us together because we live in the same city and we're both interested in fashion. Victoria's fashion line has been very successful and hopefully mine will be too. But that's where the similarities begi...

Who Will Come Out on Top????

Gossip Girl had a very strong season opener on Monday night, landing 3.4 million viewers. Will 90210 be able to beat those numbers tonight on the CW? Both shows were heavily hyped, but I have a feeling we'll see higher numbers for 9-0 this week. But then, the question I'm personally most interested in -- who will come out on top NEXT week? I have a feeling a lot of viewers are going to tune in tonight out of curiosity -- but will the CW be able to hang onto them for the long run? Time will tell, kiddos! ...

Hey Remember Michael Phelps?

No, no, he's not the dude that knocked up Bristol Palin. Think real hard and it'll come to you. Still stumped? He's that uber-hottie swimmer dude who won a bunch of gold medals at the Olympics -- when was it? -- last year? But DID HE KNOCK UP BRISTOL PALIN? No? Then I don't care today! Anyway, Michael "Heart of Gold, Abs of Steel, Size 14 Penis" Phelps will be donating his $1M bonus (that he earned from Speedo for tying Mark Spitz’s record of seven gold medals) to a...
