Oh, these two crazy kidders.
Remember earlier this last month when Carrie Fisher took William Shatner to task for a YouTube video he'd made? (Anyway, here it is again, and in it, Fisher presents a compelling argument that Star Wars was better than "Star Trek.")
But now! William Shatner has struck back! In his response video, he teases Fisher for her recent weight loss. Then he argues that Star Wars only got by on its special effects, while "Star Trek" is more "hopeful." Hmm!
The video is almost completely adorable, except for when Shatner insinuates that Fisher's boobs are saggy, which is kind of a low (pun hardly intended!) blow. Still, Fisher's last video was sorta asking for it.
Well? Who is winning this celebrity feud so far? (I love Fisher, but my money is all over Shatner.)

Have you heard about Lincoln? It's a movie about, uh, Lincoln, where Daniel Day-Lewis plays Abraham Lincoln and Academy Award winner Sally Field plays Mary Todd Lincoln. (I feel like the Boniva commercials might undermine her credibility as Mary Todd, but whatever.)
Anyway, the movie is currently shooting in Virginia, where Daniel Day-Lewis recently took his ridiculously accurate facial hair out on a lunch date. Also! According to Variety's Jeff Sneider, "Day-Lewis hasn't broken his Lincoln ...
"Look at the Kardashians, they're worth millions. I don't think they were that badly off to begin with but now look at them. You see that and you think, 'What, you mean all I have to do is behave like a f---king idiot on television and then you'll pay me millions?' …I'm not judging it. Well, I am, obviously."
---Daniel Craig explains that he is a very private person in the January issue of British GQ. He might even dislike the Kardashians more than Michael Bublé does!

I've never quite gotten "into" True Blood---although I am pretty sure I can name the television show's creator and stars offhand. But! If producers have their way, that might be about to change! (The part about actually watching True Blood, I mean.)
The-powers-that-be are apparently rallying hard to add Christopher Meloni to the HBO vampire drama's cast. MY HEAD JUST BLEW UP. Can you even imagine? "Count Stabler"---that has such a nice ring to it.
Ooh! What if…

In this clip, Melissa McCarthy visits Anderson Cooper's talk show Anderson, whereupon Anderson busts out some of McCarthy's high school photos.
And you are not going to believe this: "Missy" McCarthy was the senior voted Most Punk.
McCarthy explains that she had been totally preppy, in that very 1980s way---you know, cheerleading, student council, tennis---until the fateful year she returned from summer vacation with blue Kate Gosselin hair. She also wore turtleneck sweaters safety-pinned together as pants ("My mom loved it! And so did the nuns").
I filched this video from the Hairpin, and I really recommend taking a look at the lively comments section there---especially if you wore JNCO jeans in the 1990s. />

I was 14 years old when I saw Titanic in the theater, and instead of sighing at how romantic it was, I instead tee-hee-heed all movie long.
There is only one scene in Titanic that I remember with any clarity whatsoever. And that is the part where Rose says to Jack, "I want you to draw me wearing this"---where "this" is a necklace---and then Rose's voice drops to a sultry new register, and she intonates, "ONLY THIS." And then Jack sketches Rose with a wildly professional ferocity, and then ...
Yay! Anne Hathaway is engaged! Can you believe it?
She has been dating her now-fiancé, actor Adam Shulman, for three years. I know! It's nuts! It's like everyone totally forgot about him while he was busy being all supportive and loyal and steadfast or whatever. (Meanwhile, Hathaway's jerk ex Raffaello Follieri has been stewing in prison.)
Hathaway describes this Shulman character as "mellow," adding, "Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life."
And I...
"I think I have been rather spoiled here (in America)," he said. "I can't imagine there will be another one quite like this. ... And I think I am extremely lucky to have had the one shot that I have had at it, and I wouldn't go looking for lightning to strike twice."
---Hugh Laurie isn't too sure he wants to continue his television career once House ends. Which isn't exactly news: Laurie expressed a similar reluctance way back in May, too.
But this isn't it for Hugh! The actor goes on to...
Former (?) pop star Lily Allen has finally done it: she had a baby girl! (The father is Allen's husband, London-based painter Sam Cooper.)
And some serious congratulations are in order, here. I don't know if you remember all the crises Lily Allen has somehow lived through---celebrity gossip is a fickle mistress with a short memory---but there was a distinct phase of her stardom where she was out-Winehousing Amy Winehouse. It was actually kind of tough to keep the two straight for a minute there.
But once Allen ...

I hope I'm not ruining your Thanksgiving plans---which were, of course, to sit down with a six-pack of beer, cue up the DVR, and watch the season finale of Dancing with the Stars, all while weeping softly---by telling you what happened on the show last night.
Oh, well, here goes: motivational speaker and All My Children star J.R. Martinez is officially the Season 13 winner. (Thirteen seasons! How, even? I'm not sure I understand how TV works anymore.)
Martinez and his partner, Karina Smirnoff, barely defeated Rob...
Whooooops! Nice pink underwear, Bieber!
Whatcha think, you guys? Does the Biebz have a penchant for pink, or do you think he maybe threw his bright red hoodie into the wash with all his Hanes?
Honestly, though: the whole pink undies thing would be moot, if only Justin Bieber's pants weren't flying at half-mast. I mean, reeeeally, Bieber, hitch those pants back up. I feel like I can almost see something I shouldn't be able and/or don't want to see.
P.S. I'm on my laptop in a coffee shop today, which means I am staring at Justin Bieber's ass in public, in plain daylight. And I hope nobody in her...
