Paris Hilton Attempts to Buy Tinkerbell’s Love

I was poking around TMZ and I found this photo of Paris buying her little dog a mountain worth of tacky dog stuff. It looks like she is actually buying a little dog bag with another dog already in it. That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. I guess fake dogs are much easier to carry around.So I remember a while back Paris Hilton used to tote her Chihuahua everywhere. Well, that was until she left it at her grandparent's house and forgot about it. After that little escapade she also got h...

ProjRun: How Much Bullshit is it That Jeffrey Won?

Thank you to a recent anonymous commenter for giving us the title for this post.Michael's line was obviously a huge disappointment, although I'm sure he is crying his eyes out each night right into Brandy's vagina.I love Laura Bennett, and I would wear most of her clothes, but I agree with the judges that she lacks an original point of view and creative vision.Uli's line? Rocked. Those pieces would make any woman look stunning. She should have won, in my opinion.Jeffrey's line did nothing for me. I hated, hated, hated the dress that Marilinda wore. With the zip...

Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe get into a little tiff at the Flags of Our Fathers screening in NYC. Ryan claims Reese is embarrassing him, mostly because her jaw is overshadowing his career. [Cityrag]Victoria Beckham has been offered the hosting gig on Simon Fuller's new fashion-centric reality show.

So Justin has premiered his new “clothing line,” William Rast, during Los Angeles Fashion Week Tuesday. He is in a long line of celebrities that have really no qualifications to make clothes yet do so anyway. Is this a good idea?

I bet Jess totes wears jeans shorts from the Fashion Bug.(Good or ...

Madonna to Adopt Her Three-Year-Old Malawian Twin

In case you weren't tipped off by the rock-hard body and Kabbalah-inspired name change to "Esther" and on-stage urging of her fans to put a certain cylindrical part of our President's anatomy in their mouths and apply pressure (hint: it's not a finger!), Madonna does not half-ass anything. The singer, who has two biological children, and recently adopted a Malawi infant, is coming back for more. Loathe to let this adoption-related publicity die down, Madonna is already talking about adopting a three...

Can’t Buy Me Love: The Mills/McCartney Divorce Gets Uglier

The Heather Mills/Paul McCartney divorce proceedings have stumbled across a landmine of their very own. TMZ has obtained transcripts of the allegations Mills makes in court documents, which are not exactly a big step forward for social perception of amputees (no pun intended -- well, maybe). Mills paints herself as a battered prisoner of war, as helpless and she is legless, begging the abusive warden of Paul McCartney for table scraps, as the ruthless Beatle forced her to cook two dinners a nigh...
