The Olympics Have Begun!

Even though it won't air on US television until tonight, the opening ceremony of the Olympics has just ended in Beijing. I'm trying to find you guys clips, but unfortunately the television stations have people stalking YouTube full-time to remove any copyrighted material. This is what I could find so far. It's very homosexual. /> Even though it won't air on US television until tonight, the opening ceremony of the Olympics has just ended in Beijing.

The Clay Nation Has Another Member

Jaymes Foster, the 50-something longtime friend and producer of Clay Aiken, has given birth to a baby who was conceived via artificial insemination using Clay's little swimmers. The baby, son Parker Foster Aiken, was born early this morning in North Carolina. Clay was on-hand for the event, as the odd couple (who are platonic friends, obvs) plan to raise the kiddo together. Mother and baby -- who is reportedly dark-haired, not a red-head -- are doing well. Oh, and also? Clay Aiken is gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Bu...

Jewel Went and Got Herself Hitched

After quietly dating rodeo man Ty Murray for ten years, Jewel finally tied the knot this weekend in the Bahamas. "I dreamt about this day since I was a little girl on a ranch in Alaska," Jewel said in a statement. "It was relaxed and romantic. I wore a traditional wedding gown and diamonds and he wore jeans and a button down shirt! Ty's definitely my perfect prince." "We both have been so blessed in our lives," Ty said. "We're lucky to have each other and look forward to starting a famil...

You Guys MUST See Tropic Thunder

I just got back from the press screening of Tropic Thunder, the new Ben Stiller flick, and I have to say that it was the funniest movie I've seen in years. Seriously. Fucking hilarious. Amazing. I laughed non-stop. Everybody in it is freakin' phenomenal, and you know the weirdest part? Even Tom Cruise is awesome. He plays moneyman Les Grossman, who's rumored to be based heavily on Viacom head Sumner Redstone, who nobody hates more than Tom Cruise. So Tom plays him as a narcissistic, evil, hea...

THE VERNE TROYER SEX TAPE STILL HAS HOPE!!!!

Oh, don't tease me like this! Seriously this Mini Me sex tape back-and-forth is like a guy putting it in, taking it out, and being like "You know, I'm just going to stop for now." IT'S NOT FAIR. I'd rather just fuck Verne Troyer; at least then I wouldn't know it was in to begin with. Anyway, in order to prevent his sex tape from being released, Troyer first has to copyright the tape. In order to copyright the tape, he must find a copy. And he's having some trouble doing that. [Rana...

Grossness!

No, these are not photos of a young girl playing with her grandfather. They are, rather, photos of 18-year-old Emma Watson (aka Hermione) playing with her 27-year-old boyfriend, Jay Barrymore. This guy cannot be 27. He looks about 45. This shit should be illegal. She looks so young for her age, and he looks so old for his. It's just disturbing. The photos were reportedly taken on a recent trip to Ibiza. Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew. ...

Danica McKellar Is Probably the Most Awesome Person in the Whole Wide World

Winnie Cooper is currently promoting her second book about math for young women, titled Kiss My Math: Showing Pre-Algebra Who's Boss. Her first effort, Math Doesn't Suck: How to Survive Middle-School Math without Losing Your Mind or Breaking a Nail, was a bestseller. One of the girls from Jezebel attended her book signing in downtown Brooklyn last night, and Danica said that she wants to show young women "that you can be that girly girl who wears four-inch heels and is good at math." I L...

A Scene That Occurs 1000 Times a Day in Hollywood

A reporter for the NY Daily News recounts what happened while he was trying to interview James Franco at the after-party for The Pineapple Express, and two attractive women walked up in the middle of it. Girl: You look familiar. Franco: I dunno. Have we met? Girl: I saw you on screen an hour ago. Franco: On the street? Girl: No! On the movie screen! You were in the movie we just saw! Girl 2: I loved it. I'm [Name redacted]. Girl: I'm [Name redacted]. It's a pleasure to meet you. ...
