Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Gobble Gobble

Personally I don't understand why Evil B and Evil T get the day off while I am forced to watch the Evil Lab. I know I'm the new guy, but that seems arbitrary.
Personally I don't understand why Evil B and Evil T get the day off while I am forced to watch the Evil Lab. I know I'm the new guy, but that seems arbitrary.The good news is it's just you and me (my little lonely Thanksgiving web surfer) and we can break the rules a little around here. Hey, what's that noise?Why, it's Thanksgiving Music Thursday!Very pleasing yes? It's the band that you first heard on the Cruel Intentions soundtrack, Placebo, back and updated for this new generation with a fun song called "m...

Robbie Williams and Lisa D’Amato???

Okay, okay, I was seriously going to go away for the night, but then I came across this article from -- where else? -- ChinaDaily:Robbie Williams and Lisa D'Amato get it on. The twosome reportedly have been dating for a month.It is said that the singer has been seeing Lisa since he met her at a party in Hollywood last month."Robbie and Lisa hit it off immediately and swapped numbers the first night they met," said a source. "Lisa is young, gorgeous and fun to be around and they are getting on really well."...

Rosie, Ripa, Aiken All Non-Sexually Kiss and Makeup

That's a weird math equation. Clay wouldn't do either Ripa or Rosie, Rosie would probably put the hammer down on Ripa, but I'm guessing Ripa would pass on Mr. "McUseMyHandsBecauseICan'tThink" (that may be the longest McFakeLastName joke ever, EvilB let's put an intern on researching that).Anyway, the news from The View is that everything is fine and could we please move on to talking about Babwa Wa-Wa's wisp again?Walters said:"This is what I want to say. Rosie O'Donnell is one of the kindest, most se...

Blind Item! A New Lip-Syncing Scandal???

Yay!!!
Yay!!!The lawyer who writes the Crazy Days and Nights blog posted a sort of blind item today, implying that someone big in the music industry has been using an unknown singer's vocals on, well, all her albums. The real singer, who he refers to as "S," has not been getting her usual hush money, and now wants to come forward with her story. The famous singer, who he refers to as "MV" (for Milli Vanilli), has been "recording" since 2001, has had several hit songs and at least one gold record. The ki...

Network Televison is Like High School

Today I was in a cab going to work (usually T does take the good ole subway but the foot is still on the mend) and I saw these HUGE NBC billboards up procliaming that they are the #1 network for morning and evening news shows. I didn't really put two and two together until I was reading PageSix. They were up right in front of ABC studios on West 67th St. Evidently, NBC, sad that they are getting wacked in the ratings from shows such as Lost and Grey's Anatomy decided to pull the network equivale...

Screech Sex Tape: The Review

Evil T and I are not especially skilled in the fine art of film review, and Spiteful Lars prefers his pornography to involve Kevin Federline, so we left it up to those lovable pervs over at Fleshbot to review Dustin Diamond's feces-riffic opus, and here's what they had to say:That Diamond, whose financial woes drove him first to radio stations selling anti-foreclosure t-shirts, now peddles a sex tape through "1 Night in Paris" purveyors Red Light District, comes across as painfully self-conscious shou...

Would You Buy Cosmetics From Jackie Chan?

Via CNN this afternoon, "Jackie Chan has launched a cosmetics line, his Web site said Monday, adding to the action star's diverse range of businesses that include fitness clubs, restaurants, a clothing label and cookies."I understand the fitness clubs and I could get used to some hot Jackie Chan active wear but...cosmetics? How is Jackie Chan really in a position to sell womens cosmetics?Evidently, "Chan's skin care products, packaged with recycled materials, use natural ingredients that don't po...

Jay-Z Leaps Towards Mediocre

I have to say I loved Jay-Z a few years back. Before Beyonce, when he was sampling musicals I thought he was at least a litte bit of what the kids call "dope."Sadly he's now very annoying. You can't shake a stick without hearing him talk about coming out of retirement. If you're going to retire when you're in your twenties you better damn well wait a decade to "come back." And why the hell would a rapper even bother retiring anyway? Just stop putting out albums man, we'll get it. It's not lik...

Lindsay Lohan Sobered by Death of Robert Altman

LiLo released the following statement yesterday:I would like to send my condolences out to Catherine Altman, Robert Altmans wife, as well as all of his immediate family, close friends, co-workers, and all of his inner circle.I feel as if I've just had the wind knocked out of me and my heart aches.If not only my heart but the heart of Mr. Altman's wife and family and many fellow actors/artists that admire him for his work and love him for making people laugh whenever and however he could..Robert altman made ...
