Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Would You Wear This Shirt?

Princess Diana T-shirt “She’s Dead Get Over It” It's been on sale for a week, and it's causing quite the controversy. Personally, I think it's ridiculous and unnecessary. And this is coming from someone who calls herself the Evil Beet. I mean, a few months after Titanic came out, this girl came to school wearing a shirt that said "The Ship Sunk. Get Over It." And it was pretty much the funniest thing in the world. This? Is not funny. But it's on sale for $49.95. Jesus! That's a lot of money for a fucking t-shirt that isn't even ...

Gwyneth Paltrow Manages to Be Annoying Even in Her Post-Partum Depression

gwyneth_pink.jpg OMG. This chick is soooo annoying. I understand that post-partum depression is a very real and serious illness that affects women of all walks of life. I understand the importance of both diagnosing and treating it. What I don't understand is why Gwyneth Paltrow thinks her post-partum depression, with second child Moses, was the result of "scaling back on her usual pre-baby treatments like acupuncture." Sigh. We've finally isolated the root of post-partum depression! NOT ENOUGH AC...

Photo Shoots Are Really Crucial to Suing Rob Lowe

Jessica Gibson People Photo Shoot, Pictures Here the nanny suing Rob Lowe and his wife for sexual harrassment, Jessica Gibson, in an "exclusive photo shoot" for People magazine. Really? I mean, really? Jesus, she's only suing him for $50,000. And not that that's not a significant amount of money, but it's not like this bitch is single-handedly taking on Big Tobacco. I mean, who the hell has ever had a nanny job without the husband trying to get in her pants? This is the reason male nannies were invented. Didn't anyone else watch Party of Five? ...

Jane’s Addiction to Reunite for One Show

perry_jane.jpg Okay, so, I don't really care about the band Jane's Addiction, but, when I saw this article, I couldn't help thinking of another Jane's Addiction. I wasn't always living the high life of a celebrity gossip blogger. Once upon a time, I was a poor college student, living with my boyfriend and another guy in the fabulous Broadway Park Apartments in Tempe, Arizona. Did I mention we were poor? We ate, like, mac and cheese and potatoes every night. And slept until 3 pm and never went to class. ...

I Need to Have a Long Talk with My Boss

scientology_ad.jpg I don't control the ads around here. I just write the smut, and a much larger media company does the ad sales, and then contacts me several times a month with angry emails employing the phrase "this is a real problem" when they feel my content has "crossed a line" and will potentially reflect poorly on their company. And then my response is something along the lines of "Didn't you read anything on the website before you bought the advertising rights?" and we go back and forth like that, and some...

Is This For Real??

Uh, so, to deal with the PR crisis that came as a result of them canceling 3,300 flights last week, American Airlines has done -- as Gawker puts it -- "what any $2 billion corporation would do:" they started a blog. In Blogger. Um, what? Don't they have, like, their own domain name? Is this an attempt to be more like the common folk? I'm so confused. /> Uh, so, to deal with the PR crisis that came as a result of them canceling 3,300 flights last week, American Airlines has done -- as Gawker puts it -- "what any $2 billion corporation would do:" they started a blog.
