The Littlest Olsen Makes Good

Photo: Elizabeth Olsen attends the London premiere of Martha Marcy May Marlene on October 21 I used to joke about the "third Olsen sister," some terrible gnome that the twins keep locked away in a basement (see also: Kristen Wiig as Judice). Joke's on me; turns out there is an Olsen sibling. Or maybe I did know that, but the knowledge somehow got lost in my brain's muddle. Oh, well. Anyway. Meet 22-year-old Elizabeth Olsen. You're gonna hear a lot more about this kid in coming months, I swear. She's currently getting ridiculously rave reviews for her eponymous role in Martha Marcy May Marlene---and I'm talking Kirsten-Dunst-in-Melancholia r...

Terry Richardson Does Beyonce

'Me and Beyonce,' a photo by Terry Richardson Man! Beyoncé looks great! You can't even tell she's pregnant! Anyhoo. Here's the beautiful and talented Beyoncé Knowles, just chilling out with---oh. Ugh. Terry Richardson? You again? Oh, well. I don't love Richardson's penchant for self-insertion ("Try on my Sexual Predator Spectacles! It'll be so charming!"), although would-be celebs could sure learn a lot from the photographer's entrepreneurial sense of "branding." What I do love: the face Beyoncé is making. It reminds me ...

Cupcakes Denied Entry at L.A. County Morgue

Photo: Lindsay Lohan at the morgue! Lifted from eBaum's World. (Sorry.) Two days ago, Lindsay Lohan was denied entry into the L.A. County Morgue. You knew that already. But Lohan returned, undaunted, yesterday morning---at 5:35 a.m., bless her crazy little heart. (She was 85 minutes early.) The kid reportedly felt so bad about her tardiness on Thursday, she tried to treat her new coworkers to cupcakes and In-N-Out burgers. But Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter wasn't having it. Instead, he turned the cupcake deliveryperson away. (Nooooo!) "It's unacceptable," Winter told TMZ at the time. "W...

It’s Never Too Early in the Day to Have Your Mind Blown

Good morning! What are you having for breakfast? Personally, I'm thinking yogurt. In this totally '80s commercial, Müller Rice rescues a house from from certain demolition. Müller's dairy truck saves Knight Rider's K.I.T.T. from a parking ticket (is that really William Daniels' voice?). And thanks to the power of Müller Yogurt, all the corporate zombies turn into "Mr. Men" characters. Seriously. I've already said too much! I'll just leave this here, then. /> Good morning!

Human Rights Watch: Consultants to the Stars!

Photo: Ramzan Kadyrov -- the young one on the left -- sits with Jean-Claude Van Damme and Hilary Swank In lieu of Hilary Swank's recent brouhaha---you remember, the one where she inadvertently attended the birthday of an alleged mass-murderer and war criminal, for money---new services are being unfurled to help celebrities, y'know, avoid that kind of thing. Gawker has the full report: How do you know if the guy who paid you six-figures to attend his birthday party in Chechnya is a bloodthirsty madman who tortures for sport? Looking that stuff up---and knowing whether to care about it---is hard. Th...

Oh, Goodie: Dina Lohan Has Written a Lindsay Tell-All

Photo: Lindsay lookalike Dina Lohan goes for a stroll (September 13) The progenitors of the awfulness that is Lindsay Lohan have finally turned on their own creation, metaphorical pitchforks in hand. Yesterday, dad Michael Lohan hopped aboard the "let's talk about Lindsay's need for orthodontic intervention" train by speculating, on television, that his daughter smokes crack. Michael "Mitch Winehouse" Lohan, YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG. But never one to be forgotten, Celebrity Mom Dina Lohan is jumping in on the anti-Lindsay action. How, you ask? By writing a ...

But What Vinny G Really Wants to Do Is Direct!

Photo: Vinny G and his new mohawk on October 9 Kidding. Kind of. But, seriously, dude. This is the second time I've read about Jersey Shore's Vinny---and his dreams of acting---in as many days. From his interview with New York Magazine: That's the reason I do [reality television]. I've always been in school plays and performing monologues and taking drama. Now I'm in acting classes. I do it the real way. I want to be a working actor. I would love that. I just like being on a series and having a script, and I want that to be my nine...

Scarlett Johansson and Joseph Gordon-Levitt Are Probably Dating

Photo: Joseph Gordon-Levitt! Scarlett Johansson! Making out! WHAAAT Oh, I almost forgot to tell you guys. Scarlett Johansson and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were spied making out with each other a month ago. A month ago! I know! And we're only just hearing about it? Some scoop, Us Weekly. Anyway, I am not entirely opposed to this new pairing. The two are pretty close in age (he's 30), have both been in the biz since they were each 10ish, and have talent to spare. Scarlett has always struck me as a little self-absorbed and over-serious, and maybe Joe could help her mellow out. It...

Desperate to Help Lindsay Get Over Herself, Judge Orders Lindsay to Work at Morgue

Photo: Lindsay Lohan enjoys the sights from the front row of Milan Fashion Week last month So Lindsay Lohan isn't working at a women's shelter anymore. And heads up! She isn't working at the Red Cross anymore, either! Nope. Stephanie Sautner, the judge overseeing Lohan's probation case, has ordered the innocent, blameless starlet to work 120 hours at the L.A. County Morgue instead. That's right---Lindsay's court-ordered community service has basically turned into a "Scared Straight" program. According to TMZ, Lohan's duties at the morgue will likely be, erm, janitorial. And here's ...

Watch This: Justin Bieber’s “Mistletoe”

Kiddies! I hope you're feeling that Christmas spirit! Eh? Eh? OK, I can see that you aren't. That's fine. But maybe a little melody from Justin Bieber will jingle your bell. Eh? Eh? Well? Are you feeling it? Is this going to be a Very Bieber Holiday? Hmm. This makes me really homesick for a certain New Kids on the Block album, actually. I love a good seasonal pop ballad. /> Kiddies!

Quotables: Tell Us What You’re Really Thinking, Susan Sarandon

Photo: Susan Sarandon at UNIQLO on October 13 "The last one, not this Nazi one we have now." ---Susan Sarandon, clarifying that she mailed a copy of the book Dead Man Walking to Pope John Paul II. She certainly never mailed anything to that other guy, Pope Benedict XVI! What a total Nazi! About that whole Pope Benedict XVI thing: the president of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, Bill Donohue, has issued a statement. "The fact is that Joseph Ratzinger (the pope) was conscripted at the age of 14 into the Hitler Youth,...

Watch This: Britney Spears’ “Criminal”

Photo: 'Criminal' Britney Spears applies some Radiance by Britney Spears Here's Britney Spears in her latest video, "Criminal"! (Which I predict will make karaoke very confusing for anyone hoping to sing a certain Fiona Apple song.) The video stars Spears' agent/boyfriend, Jason Trawick, as her partner in crime. I sure hope it's your longstanding dream to watch these two real-life lovebirds, ahem, 'gilding the lily', because there's a lot of hanky-panky all up in this business. The music video itself is very cinematic. It opens with Britney fighting with a ...
