Lauren Conrad’s Book Cover Revealed

lauren-conrad LA Candy Book Cover Art Pictures Photos So LC was paid a shitload of cash to "write" a "novel," and here's your first look at the cover art for L.A. Candy. Wanna hear about the "plot"? Conrad's publishing debut is a fictional story about a 19-year-old girl named Jane Roberts who has not-so-subtle similarities to the author. "Roberts can't wait to start living it up," the official book synopsis says. "She may be in L.A. for an internship, but Jane plans to play as hard as she works and has enlisted her BFF Scarlett to join in the fun." In the novel, the two main characters are approached by a ...

Life Is So Much Fun for Chris Brown!!!

jetski2 Yay, everything is so happy and fun!!! Chris Brown was spotted jet-skiing in Miami this weekend, smiling and flexing. No Rihanna in sight, although she's rumored to be there with him. At least they weren't dumb enough to be photographed together yet. I used to really like Chris Brown. Now I can't believe how nauseated I am by him. He still hasn't issued a formal apology, or made any statement to indicate the seriousness of domestic violence, and now he's grinning on a jet ski? This is in such poor taste, dude. ...

Weed’s Pretty Much Legal Now

tfs_mm_hollywoodog Stoners and sufferers of chronic pain are celebrating together this weekend: Barack Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, announced this week that the Drug Enforcement Administration would end its raids on state-approved marijuana dispensaries. During the Bush administration, the DEA repeatedly ignored the states' decisions to legalize medical marijuana by raiding distributors. “What the president said during the campaign ... will be consistent with what we will be doing here in law enforcement,” said Holder. “...

UGH … Rihanna Back with Chris Brown?

rihanna-chris-clive I suppose this is as unsurprising as it is upsetting. People magazine is reporting that Chris Brown and Rihanna have reconciled, and are currently holed up at one of Diddy's homes. I know what you're thinking: Diddy probably lent them that place so he could have his bodyguards hold Chris down while Rihanna kneed him in the balls repeatedly. Right? Nope. "They're together again. They care for each other," says a source. "While Chris is reflective and saddened about what happened, he is really happy to be with the woman he loves." If this is...

I Cannot Believe You Guys Are Still Watching Survivor

400_survivorchina_071309_cbs_jstaab The show has been picked up for a 19th and 20th season. I didn't realize this shit was still going so strong! Survivor: Gabon, the most recent incarnation, averaged 13.8 million viewers among adults 18-49, dominating its Thursday 8 pm slot. I guess I'm not really in a position to judge, since I still love Idol after eight seasons, but Survivor bored me from day one. What's the appeal? Bitchy, dirty, old people on an island? I also don't understand how The Amazing Race is still filming new seasons. Doesn't the same old format start b...

Yup, Adam Lambert’s Gay

If you had any doubts about the Idol Top-12er's sexuality, they can be put to rest right now. I have no idea when or where this took place, but it's a pretty cool video of Adam performing Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" in perhaps the gayest manner imaginable. Truly the only thing missing here is a vibrating plastic fist. He sure can sing, though! source /> If you had any doubts about the Idol Top-12er's sexuality, they can be put to rest right now.

Tokyo ::Hearts:: Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt in Tokyo Japan for Honey Bunch Pictures Photos Paris should just move to Japan. They love her so much there. And they don't watch The Hills, so they don't know what a douche Doug Reinhardt is. Paris spent the day tooling around Tokyo with new flame Doug, promoting her fashion line, Honey Bunch. It is my understanding that this is a Japan-only brand. People are making it seem like she designs the line, but, based on the Japanese sites I've looked at (hooray for Google translate!), it appears she's just the spokesmodel. This is what they say ...

Britney Spears: Kickin’ Ass and Takin’ Names

Britney Spears at the Bambi Awards Pictures Photos GO BRITNEY!!! Her sold-out tour starts next week -- she's currently in Kentwood relaxing beforehand -- and Britney Spears is reminding us all why she's pop's top princess! Britney continues her dominance on the charts, her latest single "Circus" is the No. 1 song on the Top 40 radio charts and her fifth No. 1 song overall.

The Tour Continues

56863267twilight227200940042pm Good to see that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are continuing their international We Don't Give a Fuck Tour well into 2009. This week, they're not giving a fuck in Tokyo, where they're accompanied by a (much larger!) Taylor Lautner. See how cool they are? They don't give a fuck! In additional Twilight news, people are spreading rumors that Drew Barrymore is on the short list to direct the third feature, Eclipse. I think it's waaaay too early to be speculating on this sort...

Jason Wahler Would Rather Be Famous Than Married

Jason Wahler and Katya Decker Sadowski End Engagement Pictures Photos Gasp! First Holly Madison and Criss Angel, and now this??? Is there no such thing as true love anymore?? The Hills star Jason Wahler has called off his engagement to his 21-year-old fiancee, Katya Decker-Sadowski, but he calls it an "amicable split." Jason is now shopping a reality show called Jason and the Cougars. Wow, so he dumps his super-young fiance, and now wants to be back in the spotlight by dating much older women? Super, super classy, dude....

Sarah Welch Sues Over Runway Fall

This is really interesting to me.
Sarah Welch -- a model and former contestant on "The Bachelor" -- is suing several companies involved with the fashion show she worked at the Mondrian Hotel in West Hollywood on October 18, 2007. We found the lawsuit -- filed in Santa Monica earlier this month. Welch claims she suffered "great injuries to her body, shock and injuries to her nervous system" after she fell through a hole in the runway which was created by the performer who went on before her. Welch is suing for negligence and is seeking unspecified damages.
I know Sarah Welch. When I lived in LA, I spent a few months dating a guy who was in business with her boyfriend. Actually, I just checked, and I still have the girl's phone number in my cell phone. The first night I met her, I wrote about it here, and that article about the USA4Real New Year's Eve party was picked up and syndicated in a few different places. A couple weeks later, I got a call from Sarah. "I just wanted to thank you for that article," she said. "I've gotten so much press about that fall, and I think you're the first writer who actually took the time to figure out who I was as a person and write something nice about me. It meant the world to me, thank you." We spoke on and off a few times after that, then I broke up with my dude and I never saw her again. But I stand by my initial analysis. It's kind of a silly lawsuit, but she's a good girl, and I wish her well. /> This is really interesting to me.

It’s Baby Season!

hannigan and denisof 270209 We seem to be rolling into that time of year where it feels like every celebrity's carrying a human in their tummy. Up now: Alyson Hannigan, who was spotted strolling with her hubby, Alexis Denisof, in Santa Monica yesterday. Alyson's due this spring. I'm still pretty far off from having a human in my tummy, but I was re-watching Beverly Hills Chihuahua on DVD tonight, for a review I'm writing, and I had my own little chihuahua sitting right next to me and my kitties perched on the ch...
