Lane Garrison Charged with Manslaughter

garrison.jpg I honestly don't even remember what show this kid was on anymore. Oz? Prison Break? Kids Incorporated? It was something. Anyway, he got drunk with a bunch of teenagers sometime in December, piled the whole lot of them in his car, and drove one of them off into eternity. And then his lawyer was all like "Oh no he wasn't drunk at all," and then the whole entire world was like "Bullshit" and then it turned out he used to live with the God-fearing Simpsons as a teenager (I mean Joe and Jessica and Ashlee, not Homer and Lisa and Bart) and then e...

Joe Simpson is Truly a Man of God

Joe and Ashlee Simpson The former reverend exemplifies the qualities we look for in our men of the cloth: love, tolerance, and an awareness that life does not bend to our will. He's really just all of this and more. When asked about Britney Spears' recent stint in rehab, Joe said the following: "I would never let that happen to my daughters. Hopefully, her family will take care of the situation." That's right, Joe. You would never let that happen to your daughters, because you have complete and total control of their lives, which is healthy for all parties involved. At least Britney's family reali...

Late-Night Links

Here I thought we just had an inexcusable dearth of drinking fountains in the United States, but it turns out there's another possible explanation for all the "dehydration" hospitalizations we've seen in recent months. [Agent Bedhead]

Columbia University students take a five-minute break from their Ivy League navel-gazing to complain about Matt Fox speaking at their school. [SOW]

Phew. Lindsay Lohan is back to being her old irresponsible, drunken self, and we can return to writing article after article about her puke-on-set antics. Sobriety may have been the better choice for her personally, but it was doing nothing for us gossip bloggers, and rehab programs certainly emphasize the importance of being of service to others. Good to see Lindsay is internalizing what she's learned. [The Blemish]

The next-best thing to American Idol? Is Girls Gone Wild. [Celebrity Smack]

TORI TORI TORI!!! OMG I LOVE YOU TORI!!!! I can't wait until your whole album leaks is released.[popbytes]

Guess who's still crazy and possessive? [Yeeeah!]

Carmen Electra may not be important enough to be offered a role in the Baywatch film, but at least she can always shill for a no-name diet pill. [IBBB]

Dude, if I were Rosie O'Donnell, I'd be depressed, too. [Defamer]

AmIdol Recap: Top 8 Girls

melinda First off, I'm sorry I missed the recap last night. I was nice and busy getting this new site up and running, and attending one of Mediabistro's blogger parties, since the fabulous Kate Coe was kind enough to extend an invite. It was a great chance to reconnect with some of my favorite blogger pals from past events, and make new friends. I still haven't watched the boys' performances, so forgive me if I miss an easy joke. So on to the recap! Okay. We are twenty seconds into the program. Ryan S...

Lance Bass Writes Brilliantly Titled Memoir

AstroBass Okay, okay. Lance Bass wrote a memoir. What is it titled? You have thirty seconds. Go.If you didn't guess Out of Sync, you were thinking way too hard. Of course that's what he titled it. Because, seriously, how much gayer could a title get?At all of 27 years old, Bass is planning to release a tell-all memoir for release this fall. The book will talk about his experiences with *NSYNC, his training as a Cosmonaut (although he never actually went to space, because MTV, who was supposed to foot the bi...

Lauren Conrad to Release Online Fashion Line

Lauren ConradI suppose it should be refreshing that the latest celebrity to launch a fashion line actually went to fashion school. Lauren Conrad, former star of Laguna Beach and the last bastion of likability on The Hills (I liked you for one day, Heidi. But then you got back with Spencer and I remembered you suck.), is launching her own fashion line -- digitally, on Virtual Hills.This is more an MTV story than a Lauren Conrad story. Poor MTV has been flailing in the online arena lately, as more of their target ...

I Really Don’t Think Wills is Marrying Kate Anytime Soon

Kate MiddletonSo this article has the Internet all abuzz this morning. It's an article from the U.K.'s Daily Mail, and it's been as slow a news week in Britain as it has over here, so this is what they're running. Check out the actual quotes here: Royal photographer Arthur Edwards says, "She's in love with Prince William. I'm sure one day they'll get married...I have talked to him about that and he's made it clear... he wants to get married." And then Clarence House is all like "Prince William has no p...

AmIdol Fights Back!

ViewToo funny. American Idol has barred The View from using clips from the show, after Rosie O'Donnell mouthed off about them one too many times. I guess the number-one show in the country doesn't really need the free PR from ABC's gabfest, but the girls of The View made a point of laughing about their new punishment (video here), and we're all going to write about it today, because it's funny, and a portion of you are going to watch The View tomorrow as a result. So, in effect, the producers America...
