I really think TLC needs to give up on J&K+8 and move straight into production for Jon Minus Nine. Audiences seem to have a dwindling interest in the reality TV family -- last night's back-to-back episodes, the first since the divorce announcement, saw average ratings of 3.6M. While this is a very good number for cable TV in general, it's a huge dip from the May season opener (9.8M) and June's "big announcement" episode (10.6M). Audiences loved watching the bickering between Jon & Kate while ...
A tipster points us to this little-known interview with Mischa Barton done in January 2009. At first she's just rambling about hair products (she gets a pass there since it's an Herbal Essences event), but around the 1:55 line she talks about her OC days -- how she hated the show by the end and chose for her character to die. Then she says that she never sees any of the cast from the show anymore.
She doesn't seem high or drunk, exactly, but something's off. Hungover maybe? Or just the early, brewing stages of a complete break-down? />

Hello all. I apologize for the total lack of posts this afternoon. Wendie has the rest of the day off, which should have been just fine, except a lovely red truck ran a stop sign and plowed into the side of my car a couple hours ago. Thank God, I was wearing my seatbelt, and the airbags deployed, and I walked away without a scratch (the same can not be said for my precious car). The body shop says my car will have to live with them for three weeks (????) and no one in this city has rental cars...
A pointedly bra-less LiLo did some shopping at the WeHo American Apparel on Monday, trying on their scarves like a Grey Gardens character. Actually, I believe American Apparel calls those sashes. I know because their ad for it says "The Sash" in big letters on the top, and that's what my college boyfriend used to call me, so I totally love those ads. Also: it was pointed out to me that the girl in those ads looks a lot like me. So whatever. I've basically been on Lindsay Lohan at this point. Sco...
Congrats, Kate Major! There comes a moment in every young woman's career when she has sit down and seriously ask herself, "Should I bang a divorcing father of eight and then loudly quit my job, sacrificing any sense of personal dignity, for the potential publicity pay-off?" I know I had a similar moment when Mel Gibson wanted me to go into the bathroom with him at Moonshadows. I thought about it long and hard, but I made the decision that my dignity was more important than publicity. (Well, th...
Listen, I don't harbor Wendie's all-consuming hatred for Julia Roberts, but Eat, Pray, Love is one of my favorite books ever, and I'd never pictured Julia Roberts in the lead role. I was thinking of someone younger, someone more playful, more malleable. Maybe a Kate Hudson or a Rachel McAdams or a Charlize Theron. Definitely not Julia Roberts.
It occurs to me that what I'm doing here is exactly what sometimes bothers me about my own readership -- I found a book that I love, that I relate to, ...
The queen of the pre-teens has teamed up with BCBG designer Max Azria in what appears to be a well-coordinated effort to dilute both their brands. You can check out the full collection they've "designed" for Walmart here, but I've pulled some of my favorite items and posted them in the gallery below. It's the best, brightest and cheapest from eight seasons ago. And get this: With the exception of the skinny jeans ($20), nothing in this line retails for more than $12. Most of the shirts are $6...
Haylie Duff takes in a movie in LA with her boyfriend, Nick "Z-list" Zano. Does the name ring a bell? He used to be the one true love of Kristin Cavallari -- who had his initials tattooed on her wrist before she dumped him a couple years back.

He's a back-up dancer! He's a rapper! He's an actor! No, no, none of those worked out, so K-Fed's falling back on every famewhore's favorite fall-back plan: He's doing a reality TV show. His second reality TV show, the first of course being the perma-stoned Chaos with Britney Spears.
Kevin's currently filming the VH1 show in Vegas with his entourage -- including girlfriend Victoria Prince -- and thus far he's not making a lot of new friends with the locals.
Last night, he hit up Waste...
If you're anything like me, you wake up every morning lately, scan the news headlines, and ask yourself, "Why isn't Paris Hilton's name anywhere on here?" Paris has been laying conspicuously low these days, and now perhaps we know why: She's reconciled with Douche Reinhardt, and she's probably a little embarrassed about it. I mean, there were practically parades in the streets when they split -- everyone hates that guy -- but apparently Paris has had trouble finding another Z-lister to worsh...
A federal judge has ruled that a Boston University student violated copyright laws when he swapped music online, paving the way for a jury to begin considering damages Friday.
Joel Tenenbaum, 25, admitted on the witness stand Thursday that he downloaded and shared hundreds of songs by Nirvana, Green Day, The Smashing Pumpkins and other artists.
"Tenenbaum's statement plainly admits liability on both downloading and distributing, does so in the very language of the statute ... and does so with ...
