George Takei and his longtime partner, Brad Altman, showed up at West Hollywood City Hall on Tuesday morning to get their marriage license.
"Today we are all here to give flesh and blood reality to that ruling. We are going to make history," said Takei. "Congratulations to all of us and may equality live long and prosper."
Every county in California was required to start issuing new gender-neutral marriage licenses Tuesday with spaces for "Party A" and "Party B" where "bride" and "groom" used to be.

The fabulous Ms. Rivers was kicked off the UK talk show Loose Women for calling Russell Crowe a "piece of fucking shit." She warned the producers to bleep her, but the show is live and there's no bleeping. Joan was asked to leave at the commercial break.
Says Joan in apology: "Yes, I swore, and I'm so fucking sorry. No one told me the TV show Loose Women was a reality show and that I would be voted off. It's funny: offstage, I hardly ever use profanity. My favorite four-letter word is 'shop.'"

Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong, leaving her West Village townhome on their way to an Iron Maiden concert at Madison Square Garden.
I had no idea that Iron Maiden was still touring. The most I know about Iron Maiden is from that Wheatus song, "Teenage Dirtbag," which I'm posting the video for here because that song rocks, and the video has Jason Biggs and Mena Suvari in it. This is the censored version, where they blank out the word "gun" in "he brings a gun to school," because we all know th...
The Wall Street Journal ran an interesting article today about the Disney fame machine and their newest protege, 15-year-old Demi Lovato, who will star in the upcoming Disney flick Camp Rock, which they obviously hope will be the next High School Musical. (It premieres today on pay-per-view, which is probably why the WSJ is running this article today.)
Anyway, the whole article's worth a read (it's here) as it talks a little about how Disney discovers and nurtures new talent. It turns out D...
Aw, this is a really cute story.
Last week, Blige was at the Diane von Furstenberg store in the Meatpacking District when she overheard a girl having a problem at the register. A spy said, "The girl had a dress on hold that she loved, and the bill was $900. She thought it was only $500, and she couldn't afford it." Blige told the saleswoman, "Go get the girl. I want to pay for the balance on the dress." The customer at first declined Blige's offer but relented after the singer said, "I know ...
God, Paris Hilton sucks so much.
On her way to a photo shoot this weekend, Paris decided she wanted to have a puppy in the shoot with her, so that it would look "cuter."
She waltzed into The Puppy Store on Melrose and tried to buy a Yorkie. An employee there refused her, saying it was "clearly an impulse buy." Paris went ballistic. "She started screaming, 'I love my puppies! I want my baby!'" says a spy.
If you wanted a puppy in the shoot with you, Paris, you should have taken one ...

Ashley Olsen and her boyfriend Justin Bartha both attended a screening of Trumbo in NYC last night, but they were careful to leave separately and not pose together on the red carpet.
Stupid stars protecting their stupid personal lives. I want photos!!!
Ashley's still looking awesome, though, and the timing of her new look coincides with the beginning of her relationship with Justin. Whatever he's doing for her, it's a good thing!...
Kelly Ripa has it all.
The hot husband who's stuck by her forever, adorable kiddos, a lucrative job she loves, a great sense of humor, perfect arms and fabulous clothes.
I so want to be Kelly Ripa. I've idolized her forever. Her life just always seems so perfect to me. Sometimes I pretend that she's secretly my big sister and she will mentor me so that my life can be just like hers.

I don't even know why. I can't think of a single thing she's done to bother me. At least with someone like Mandy Moore I can be like "You know what? She's really self-congratulatory and holier-than-thou and fucking annoying in interviews." I can't even say that about Anne.
I think it's a combination of two things: her fucking enormous mouth and her refusal to tan. I mean, she lives in Los Angeles. I'm not saying everybody needs to fake-bake all the time, but it's like she's actively avoidin...
Abigail Breslin recently told the LA Times that she -- gasp! -- didn't cut her hair to play a short-haired girl in Kit Kittredge: An American Girl. Rather, she donned a short-haired wig.
"I really don't know if I could handle having my own hair really short, but wearing the wig was fun. It didn't really feel that different but felt like I was wearing a hat. But I'd never do that to my real hair, because I like putting it in a ponytail. I really don't like short hair."
The nerve! Silly Abiga...
