A minute of your time, that's all I need. Do you have a minute? Great.
Are you ready? Are you sitting? Are you a heterosexual female (or whoever)? Good, perfect. Click "play."
…RIGHT? Who doesn't want a little house in Lillestrom? Right? You can totally see why a savings account with a high-yield interest rate is so important. Talk to me in the comments---I'll customize a goal-oriented savings plan that's right for you! ACHIEVE YOUR DREAMS! />

So! Did you watch Two and Half Men last night? Odds are you did---the season premiere raked in 28 million viewers. And heaven help me, I was one of them. There's no DVR up in this piece, either, so I had to miss an entire half-hour of The Sing-Off. Grr! (I also missed Dancing with the Stars and the Comedy Central Roast of Charlie Sheen. I was also curious about David Krumholtz in The Playboy Club. Ah, well.)
Here's a recapitulation of last night's episode of Two and a Half Men:
At Charli...
So a couple very special things happened at the 2011 Emmy Awards last night. For one, freaking Barry Pepper vindicated himself with a gosh-damned Emmy win. For another, my mom is so excited for Emmy-minted Kyle Chandler, star of Friday Night Lights.
But let's forget all those nice things and talk about what Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco wore instead! (She and David Spade presented the Emmy for Outstanding Reality Competition.)
First of all, this ensemble is en pointe, straight up. "Ballerina-lengt...
My darling D.,
I'm sorry we got into a (minor) spat, honey. You said that I was "short" and "abrupt" on the phone last night, and you were probably right. I had a case of the Grumps, particularly because I had cut my leg on the refrigerator (?!) and skinned my hand on a bottle of water (?!?!!).
But I was also annoyed because I forgot the 2011 Emmy Awards were on Sunday, watched Tamara Drewe and a couple episodes of "Lingo" instead, and then discovered that I had missed a live performan...
You can run to Canada, Randy and Evi Quaid, and you can hide, but---I'm sorry, I can't even talk about this with a straight face.
Apparently, Dog the Bounty Hunter's wife, Beth Chapman, is hunting the Quaids.
I mean, I think she is, at least. In the open letter Beth Chapman posted to her blog yesterday, she threatens that, the instant the Quaids return to the U.S., she and Dog will be there, ready to scoop them up and collect the reward. "You are a fugitive!" she writes. "YOU'RE FREE GAME! And we're gonna get ya no matt...
Noted science-fiction author Harlan Ellison---whose sizable oeuvre has been somewhat marred by his own litigiousness---is suing yet again. Ellison claims that next month's In Time, which stars Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried, owes too much to his seminal story, "'Repent, Harlequin!' Said the Ticktockman."
From the Guardian:
According to Ellison's suit, both works are based on the premise of a "dystopian corporate future in which everyone is allotted a specific amount of time to live." The writer also says In Time lifts other concepts...
TMZ is now reporting that darling Mila Kunis's cell phone was also hacked, although the leaked photos aren't quite as saucy as Scarlett's.
But! The photos' subject matter might surprise you! Of the four photos the hacker leaked, two were reportedly of Friends with Benefits costar Justin Timberlake. In one photo, he's "laying [sic] shirtless in a bed." In another photograph, Timberlake is wearing a pair of pink panties on his head. How sexy.
There's also a photo of a peen, but so far, no one has been able to verify the peen's identity. And then ...
We have Duets II fever! The album's September 20 release date can't get here soon enough!
The music video for "Body and Soul"---Amy Winehouse's duet with legendary Tony Bennett---premiered on MTV yesterday, on what would have been Winehouse's 28th birthday:
On Sunday, Tony Bennett will perform at the Metropolitan Opera, marking the beginning of the official celebration of Mr. Bennett's 85th birthday. (No, I know, his birthday was in August. Whatever! Tony Bennett celebrates his birthday whenever he wants! He's ...
Michelle Williams, dolled up as iconic, tragic bombshell Marilyn Monroe, graces the pages of the October issue of Vogue, out next Tuesday. (Famed photographer Annie Leibovitz is behind the lens.)
This isn't the first time Williams has posed as Marilyn: she appeared in a haunting promo shot for her upcoming role in the movie My Week with Marilyn.
In the Vogue interview, pin-thin Williams admits she tried to gain weight for the part. "Unfortunately, it went right to my face," she explains. "So a...
I'm shocked! Seriously, celebrities, what kind of cell phones are you using? These photos are awful!
I think I know how this nude pic leak happened: Scarlett Johansson abandoned her Blackberry in a dumpster because its camera was terrible. Then a dumpster-diver happened to notice the abandoned phone, and he was like, "Boy, these photos are really grainy and washed-out. Hey! Is this Scarlett Johansson's phone? Because that looks like her butt, in flagrante delicto." (If you don't speak Latin, that's "her butt, 'on delicious fir...
Meet Macy Armstrong. She's 13 years old, she's Canadian, and she's pretty much James Franco's biggest fan. She's also a mighty talented fledgling artist---her favorite subject is James Franco, natch.
In a sense, Mr. Franco knows all about fan art: during TIFF proceedings on Sunday, Franco visited Toronto to discuss his own Gus Van Sant -inspired art installation, "Memories of Idaho." (He himself was 13 when Van Sant's My Own Private Idaho was in theaters.)
And that was when Mr. Franco spied our young heroine, Macy, in the crowd. She was wearing...
Some guy got what he thought was actor Terrence Howard's phone number. This story is already great, right? As if Terrence Howard is really the kind of guy you wanna tick off.
So one night in August, the guy's girlfriend drunk-dialed the number. Her call went to voicemail, and she left a three-minute message professing her "undying love" to Mr. Howard. Alas, she had left the message on Terrence Howard's wife's voicemail. Mr. Howard was not amused.
The prank callers probably didn't think...
