Jessica Simpson’s New Swimsuit Line is Truly Haute Couture, Part I

Dennis Rodman Gets Head on the Red Carpet This is Dennis Rodman and a famewhore on the red carpet at the after party of Jessica Simpson's new swimsuit line debut. It's a well-known mantra in the fashion world: if you can't get Anna Wintour there, get Dennis Rodman. What does he even do these days? Does he still play basketball? Is this really the level to which he must stoop in order to get anyone to write anything about him? Sad, Mr. Rodman. Very sad. Also, is that a tranny? ...

Samantha Ronson Sues over Cocaine Allegations

Samantha Ronson Suing Perez Hilton and Sunset Photo Over Cocaine Allegations DJ Samantha Ronson, known more lately for what her fingers are doing with Lindsay Lohan than what they're doing with a turntable, has struck back against two gossip blogs with a $20 million libel suit. Ronson, herself a budding celebrity deejay, is striking back at suggestions that cocaine found in Lohan's car after an infamous fender-bender was actually hers. Named as defendants were Jill Ishkanian, who runs the Sunset Photo and News Agency, and Mario Lavandeira, who blogs as Perez Hi...

Links and Orlando Bloom

orlando.jpg I'm in the weirdest mood tonight. I did a favor for a friend today and as a thank you she gave me a hot stone massage (I'm serious -- this is LA, people), and it really feels like she gave me about eight Valium instead. So I can't bring myself to do links, or anything even remotely productive right now. (Although, MK will be be glad to hear that I did eat the leftover onion rings from Kate Mantilini tonight.) I may do some links in the morning, but, until then, here are some of my friends' sites to ch...

Um, When Did Jennifer Love Hewitt Get Fat?

Jennifer Love Hewitt Got Fat Okay, before I get all the hate mail, let me clarify that Jennifer Love Hewitt is not fat by, you know, Missouri standards (sorry Missouri readers, but prove me wrong), but she's way fat by Hollywood standards. As a teenager I remember reading article after article in Seventeen about "Working Out with Jennifer Love Hewitt" and "How Jennifer Love Hewitt Maintains Her Body" and now I feel like I should be reading an article called "I Know What You Did with That Entire Family-Size Bag of Cheetos." ...

We’re One Today!

A Whole Year Old at Evil Beet! Happy birthday, Evil Beet! This site was born a year ago today. Man, anything and everything has changed since then -- The Beet has been about the only constant in my life over the past year -- and I can't stress enough how grateful I am to everyone who reads and everyone who links in here. You guys make my day, every day. And thank you to Evil T and Spiteful Lars for coming along for the ride with me -- you guys are talented and amazing as both writers and friends; I love you to pieces, a...

Jesus Christ, David Beckham is Hot

David Beckham Joins LA Galaxy Press Conference, Pictures and Photos The LA Galaxy held a press conference today at the Home Depot Center to welcome David Beckham to the team, and the photos of him from the event look like the keepers from a Ralph Lauren campaign photo shoot. Seriously, this guy is so effortlessly gorgeous it's ridiculous. Victoria's look, on the other hand, remains anything but effortless, and she still refuses to smile. I know she's embarrassed about her British teeth, but you can smile without opening your mouth, Victoria. Just give it...

Kim Porter Says She Dumped Diddy

Kim Porter Says She Broke Up with Diddy "After 10 years, I have decided to end my on-again/off-again relationship with Sean `Diddy' Combs," reads a statement released by Diddy's baby mama. "In ending this relationship, I made a decision that was in the best interest of myself, Sean and our family. I look forward to moving on with my life and my career, and wish him prosperity, health and happiness in life and in love. We will remain friends and committed parents to our children." I find the first part of this statement so, so fu...
