Courtney Love Should Have Been a Journalist

courtney-love-bikini.jpg She missed her calling. Her true genius lies in the written word. Responding to reports that she had gastric bypass surgery, Courtney responds, and I quote: oh perez got it from pge six nd ots bullshit i couldnt get that suregry iof i begged for it FDA says you have to have a BMI of above 40 and that equals at least being 100 pounds overweight at least other wsie its ILLEGAL.

DUUUUUDE JOE FRANCIS IS SOOOO FUCKED

joe1.jpg I've wondered time and time again how someone like Joe Francis sleeps at night. I guess I have my answer now: Lunesta. When I heard Francis got his ass caught with drugs in prison -- the guards became suspicious after he tried to bribe one of them for a bottle of water -- I wondered what it was he had smuggled in. What pill could be worth that risk? Lunesta, it turns out, and anti-anxiety med Lorazepam. There were 16 different pills in all. Turns out tough guy Joe was scared he wouldn't get h...

Really, Kato, Thanks for Taking the Time to Walk the Carpet

kato2.jpg We know you have a lot going on these days, and you must be so tired of paparazzi constantly prying into your private life. You just want to be off the radar for a little while, you just want to get inside to enjoy the party, we understand that, but it's really important to our editors that we get one or two good pictures of Kato Kaelin tonight. You don't have to answer questions if you don't want to. This'll just take a second. Please, Kato, we're begging you. Just go ahead and stand in fr...

Jimmy Kimmel: Still Retarded

jimmy_kimmel.jpg Via Page Six: JIMMY Kimmel sounded smug when he guest-hosted "Larry King Live" and told Gawker.com editor Emily Gould he "doesn't know anyone who would advertise on Web sites like hers." It turns out Kimmel's own show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live," buys ad space on three blogs similar to Gawker - A Socialite's Life, Egotastic and The Superficial. Now Kim mel's backtracked, tell ing The Post's Mari anne Garvey, "Larry's suspenders were very tight on me, so I didn't complete my sentence. I have nothi...

Justin Chambers Should Sleep More Often

justin_chambers.jpg I mean, in general, when you've been chosen to host the opening of a New York night club (Triumph, in this case), it's advisable to do a little more than roll out of bed and put on a jacket. You could, I don't know, wear an undershirt that covers your entire chest, for instance. It's a starting point. Mostly, though, get some rest, darling, and try not to look so unhappy to be there. It's not like you're Isaiah Washington hosting a gala at The Abbey. ...

DUDE JOE FRANCIS IS SO FUCKED

paris_joe.jpg That sonofabitch smuggled drugs into prison. GENIUS. And he got caught because he tried to bribe a guard for a bottle of water. EVEN BETTER! Jail is scary, isn't it, Joe? Francis allegedly tried to bribe a correctional officer with $100 last night for a bottle of water. This sparked an internal search of his jail cell which reportedly turned up $700 in cash, all in $100 bills, some pills thought to be controlled substances. Its not yet known how he obtained the cash and drugs in the jail. ...

An American Idol Sex Tape

olivia.jpg Sigh. I hate that I'm writing this story. I put it off for awhile, hoping this story would just flicker out and die, and yet it persists, and so I would be remiss in my duties if I didn't bring it to you. Someone who was once on American Idol has a raunchy sex tape. Who, you ask? Kellie Pickler, maybe? Nikki McKibbin? Clay Aiken? Maybe even Jim Verraros? Ooh, or Jim Verraros with Clay Aiken?? No, no. It's no one you've heard of, silly. It's some chick named Olivia Mojica, but honestly her name m...
