"I found myself in the company of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, who had really quality music, much more so than mine. I'm sure there are people scratching their heads, going 'Wow, how is she still around?'"
Total suckfest Mandy Moore, talking about her career in the late '90s to Details magazine. Mandy also swears a bunch and takes off a lot of her clothes for the piece, which exists to promote her new album, Amanda Leigh, where she claims she's doing music she really believes in....
Evil Beet is hobbling into the 21st century, kids. After countless requests, I finally got up off my ass today and figured out how to add "ShareThis" buttons to the bottom of each post. If you click on the button, it'll give you the option to share the post over email, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Digg and like a billion other things, some of which I've never even heard of, because I'm tech-savvy like that.
Hey remember how awhile back I added the Reply option to the comments on here and it was a giant pain in my ass but now you guys totally love it and use it all the time? Yeah. This was a pain in my ass, too. So use it. And don't say I don't love you or listen to your comments. Well, I do love you. I don't always listen to your comments. But I try to respond to requests like this within the year. So enjoy!
xoxo

Dominos Pizza is taking the bull by the horns. Remember this video of Dominos employees doing disgusting things to the food that took over the web yesterday? There's another one above. In fact, later on in the day, I found about four more of these gross things. I didn't watch them all and I'm not posting them all, but they're on the web if you want 'em.
Not only did Dominos immediately fire the employees involved, but now there's an arrest warrant out for them, filed by the franchise owner. The employees apologized in an email, saying it was a prank and that the food was never served. The female employee, Kristy, wrote to the company spokesperson: "It was all a prank and me nor Michael expected to have this much attention from the videos that were uploaded! No food was ever sent out to any customer. We would never put something like that on you tube if it were real!! It was fake and I wish that everyone knew that!!!!" (Do you believe her???) The spokesperson said the company "was not in a forgive-and-forget mood."
Dominos is also considering filing a civil complaint against the employees.
They say on their website:
Since the videos first surfaced yesterday, the two workers have been identified, fired and the affected franchisee has filed a criminal complaint against them, and there are warrants for their arrest.
The opportunities and freedom of the internet is wonderful. But it also comes with the risk of anyone with a camera and an internet link to cause a lot of damage, as in this case, where a couple of individuals suddenly overshadow the hard work performed by the 125,000 men and women working for Domino’s across the nation and in 60 countries around the world.
We apologize for the actions of these individuals, and thank you for your continued support of Domino's Pizza.
Way to go, Dominos. Take serious action against these two, and remind us all that we're leaving a lot of folks floundering in this economy if we stop eating Dominos. This is fantastic PR work on their part. I still don't think I can order a Dominos pizza anytime soon, though. />

Hey, remember on Sunday, when Jamie Foxx went off all batshit crazy about Miley Cyrus, the one who "gotta get a gum transplant" and "do some heroin" and "put some crack your pipe"? As of Tuesday afternoon, he had yet to issue an apology, and word on the street was that Papa Cyrus was PISSED. “He thinks Jamie was out of line and didn’t find any humor in it,” said a source. “He doesn’t understand why he would do that to Miley especially since he has teenage daughter himself ... Billy Ray isn’t going to say anything publicly because he doesn’t want to this to escalate.”
The actor and comedian has been taking a lot of heat lately for his comments about the 16-year-old, which began when a random caller phoned into his radio show to say that he thought Miley was a bitch.
But when Foxx went on Jay Leno's show Tuesday night, Leno pushed the issue, and Foxx finally apologized.
"Did you say something inappropriate?" Jay Leno innocently queried of the Oscar winner on Tuesday's Tonight Show.
"Yeah," Foxx admitted, taking a few breaths before launching into a full-blown apology.
"I so apologize to [Cyrus], and this is sincere," he began. "I am a comedian, and you guys know that whatever I say, I don't mean any of it. [Big laugh from the audience]. And sometimes, as comedians, as we do, we go a little bit too far.
"I have a radio show...We're really the black Howard Stern. We go at everybody. There was a situation with Miley Cyrus, and I just want to say, I apologize for what I said. I didn't mean it maliciously. You know I'm a comedian. You know my heart," he added, turning to Leno.
Then, looking at the camera, "Miley, I apologize, so I'll call you. I got a daughter too, so I completely understand."
What do we think, guys? Apology accepted or no? />

Nadya Suleman, aka "The Octomom," is looking to trademark the term "Octomom." The only problem is that someone else beat her to the punch: a Houston-based novelty company filed an application with the trademark office a month before she did. Only one other person thought to do that??? I would have expected at least 100 applications to be filed. It's a good word to own these days.
Nadya's lawyers are getting in the ring to get that word back:
"It's not going to matter because they had...
Remember how Heidi Klum was basically wearing eight layers of sweatshirts in these photos? And I said that I'd assume she was pregnant except for she looked relatively bump-less in photos taken a couple weeks earlier???
Well, I guess she'd just recently started to show!
Because Heidi is pregnant with her FOURTH child, and her third with hubby Seal. She's a little under four months pregnant, according to sources.
Congrats Heidi!...
Impressing even the most critical of cynics, Audrina Patridge is actually breaking into acting. That should go in quotes. She's breaking into "acting." Ceiling-eyed Audrina and her tattooed sister, Casey, hit the red carpet for the release of her straight-to-DVD flick, Into the Blue 2: More Bikinis. (The actual subtitle is The Reef, but you know this shit is just getting promoted as Audrina Patridge wearing next to nothing.)
Also there: Holly Madison, who really ought to avoid any future red-carp...
We all knew it was just a matter of time. Now the Octomom, Nadya Suleman, and her bazillion helpless children, have landed a TV show. Except it'll only be airing in the UK ... and then they'll see if the US is interested.
"Yes, it is official. I'm going to be doing a show, but it's not a reality show," Nadya tells Life & Style. "What I'm doing with this TV show is basically creating documentaries about the lives of my children. It's going to be an ongoing thing, and it will follow them...
So I've always thought it was kind of bullshit when the judges criticize the outfits of the AI contestants, because we all know those bitches have stylists. I guess whether they choose to listen to them or not is their own decision. But Film.com's Natalie Broulette sat down with Miles Siggins and Soyon An, the Idol stylists, for a chat about what goes into getting these kids stage-ready, and what their personal styles are like.

It was poised to be the auction of the century, but a last-minute settlement between Jackson's production company and the auction house means it's not going to happen after all ... at least not yet. Jackson had originally tried to sue the auction house, but an LA judge put the kibosh on that.
I'm so bummed! Now I won't get to buy any of his "Disneyana." Or that creepy, creepy poem he wrote about playing with little children.
Oh well. Give it another couple of years. This shit'll be back o...
Woot woot!!!!
Governor David Paterson plans to introduce a bill on Thursday that would legalize gay marriage in the state of New York.
We're just going to keep at this shit until all the old people who don't seem to understand that every life should be treated equal finally die off.
Can't be stopped! Won't be stopped! This shit is a BULLDOZER running on a giant engine called Proposition 8. You should have left well enough alone, haters.
You can read more details about the bill, and the issues it expe...
This is RIDICULOUS. Someone at NBC should be fired for this shit. After Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich basically shit all over the Constitution by offering to sell Barack Obama's Senate seat to the highest bidder, NBC wants to make him a TV star. They want him to be on their ellipses-tastic summer juggernaut I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!
"Rod Blagojevich will be a participant on the show pending the court's approval," NBC said.
In the series, 10 celebrities of various backgrounds...
