Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Awwwwwwwkward

Here's Taylor Swift, pimping out her senior prom night for an MTV show called Once Upon a Prom. Taylor chose to go to prom with Whit Wright, of Hillcrest High School in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. She narrowed the group of applicants down to about 14, then picked Whit's name out of a hat. Taylor will be on tour when her own high school has its senior prom.
Wearing a beige BCBG full-length gown, Swift picked up Wright in her new tour bus. But when she discovered that her date was wearing a pink tie and vest to honor a friend's mother who is battling breast cancer, she ran to the back of the bus and changed into a pale pink dress by Sue Wong.
Aw, that's really cute. This dude seems really, really uncomfortable, but also very sweet. I didn't get to go to my senior prom, either. But that was more because I'd dropped out of high school by then, and less because I was an international superstar. It's okay, though. I'm pretty sure I got laid that night, anyway, which is more than I can say for Taylor. "I don't kiss on the first date!" she lied, when asked if there was any monkey business between her and Whit. /> Here's Taylor Swift, pimping out her senior prom night for an MTV show called Once Upon a Prom.

Connor Cruise to Take On First Movie Role

Tom Cruise, Wife Katie Holmes and Adopted Son Connor Cruise, Pictures, Photos I guess the adoptive Cruise children aren't being completely ignored. Connor Cruise, age 13, has landed a small role in the upcoming Will Smith drama, Seven Pounds. He'll play a younger version of Smith. Connor supposedly had to audition for the role. Riiiiight. In much the same way Tori Spelling "auditioned" for her role on 90210. "Tom is so proud of Connor," says a source. "He's proud of him for really doing this on his own." I have to admit, I'm always kind of relieved to hear that the "other" Cruise children have some mann...

Yup, Our Old Lindsay’s Back

Lindsay Lohan Passed Out Drunk at Beatrice Inn, Pictures, Photos The stories of Lindsay "Crazy" Lohan are hitting the gossip scene at around the same time we keep hearing stories of her pounding vodka. Surprise, surprise. Lindsay was apparently at the Beatrice Inn in NYC on Friday night, with Samantha Ronson. Ashley Olsen was there, too. Ashley decided to say hello to Samantha, who's probably sold her drugs on more than one occasion. Lindsay's response? "Get your 15-year-old 'Full House' ass away from my girlfriend." Heh. ...

Eva Mendes’ Dress: Love It or Leave It?

Eva Mendes at La Fille Du Regiment Opera, Pictures, Photos I guess when you decide to quit drinking, you have to resort to evening activities like going to the opera. I don't think I've ever been to an opera in my life. I saw Phantom of the Opera once. Does that count? They talk in English in that one, though. I don't even like watching movies with subtitles. I doubt I'd fare well at the opera. I'm a cultureless brute. Here's Eva at the Metropolitan Opera's opening night of La Fille Du Regiment. What do we think of the dress?...

Ali Lohan To Eventually Become Cocaine Addict Make Feature Film Debut

Congrats to 14-year-old Ali Lohan, who has begun filming her first movie role in Los Angeles. The film is called Mostly Ghostly, and is based on the series of R.L. Stine books of the same name. Ali will play a popular high-school senior. Which is fine, because, these days, she looks to be about 26. Much like Lindsay, who looks to be around 48. I think the Lohans age in dog years. How long before Ali ends up knocked up by Brody Jenner? I give it a couple of years. ...

Oh God. It’s Happening. The Scarlett Johansson Album of Tom Wait Covers is Actually Fucking Happening.

The first single off the album, called "Falling Down," is streaming on AOL. Listen to it here. Um, I don't really know who Tom Waits is, but this sounds like something you'd find on the old masters of a Sarah McLachlan recording session back in 1992. It's not, like, super bad or anything. I mean, it's still a hundred times better than anything Heidi Montag's come up with. But, Jesus, it's so, so strange. Did I mention I can't believe this is actually fucking happening? So, so ...

Trying to Work Up the Nerve to Kill Yourself?

I know the feeling. It's like, "Damn, life isn't worth living. Shit never gets any better. I'm tired of fighting. I'm just done." And you try to figure out how you're going to off yourself, but everything you come up with sounds either too painful, too scary, too disgusting, or too likely to fail. You need that final push of courage to go through with it. That final straw. That kick in the balls, that thing that cements in your mind, once and for all, that this world will never be a safe place for you. I've found it. Ladies and gentlemen, the latest YouTube episode of the Miley and Mandy Show. /> I know the feeling. It's like, "Damn, life isn't worth living. Shit never gets any better. I'm tired of fighting.
