Big News! October 5, 2009WendieChris Noth Here's a change of speed for you: Chris Noth and his long-time girlfriend Tara Wilson are engaged and openly admitting it. These two have been together for a long time -- she worked for his NYC bar The Cutting Room and they were a couple as early as 2002 -- and also share a son, Orion, who is almost two. Noth is 54 -- I'm pretty sure this is his first marriage which is shocking by Hollywood standards -- and Wilson is exactly half his age, natch. Congrats and good luck to the happy couple!...
Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem Are Engaged. Maybe. October 5, 2009WendieJavier Bardem, Penelope Cruz If the NY Post is to be believed, Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are set to tie the knot. Remember how many times we were told that Jennifer Aniston was marrying Vince Vaughn/ex-husband Brad Pitt/Jason Lewis/Courteney Cox/the sperm donor of the twins she was expecting ... and it's never true. I think that engagement rumors are the natural follow-up to pregnancy rumors. Of course, Penelope is denying all the baby rumors and I've posted a picture taken of her on September 11th so you can all s...
Caption This October 5, 2009WendieMischa Barton Before you caption this or any of the gallery pictures of Mischa Barton roaming the streets of New York City yesterday, I'd like to remind you that Misch, double-fisting her Starbucks, just last week defined herself as a "fashion icon". I will send out props for her ability to have a perfectly heart-shaped tear in her t-shirt -- obviously a cast-off of Lindsay's Ungaro collection. [gallery]...
Ready To Meet The Mother? And Thanks For a Great 363 Days October 2, 2009WendieRachel Bilson Sunday marks one year since I began work here at Evil Beet as your Weekend Editor. I thank you for all of your support both then and as I moved to weekdays. For every reader that has vomited their venomous vitriol in my direction, I've encountered a hundred-fold of kind and wonderful people. I even thank the vomiters for reading and sharing their thoughts. I've also learned a lot about myself over the past year, but no self-revelation has been more jarring than when I realized that ...
It’s Friday. Let’s Look at Boobs. October 2, 2009WendieKate Beckinsale It's almost the weekend and everyone is losing their minds. Is it my imagination or has this been the longest Friday ever? I know that all days are supposed to be the same 24 hours, but I question that. I know I'm not alone in my disgust of the length of this day. Would some tits and ass make you feel better? Kate Beckinsale has been named Esquire's "Sexiest Woman Alive". Instead of just a glossy photo spread, Kate has graced the universe with a two-minute video of her prancing around...
How Bad Is Peter Sellars’ Play? October 2, 2009WendieUncategorized Peter Sellars has been heading up a production of Othello that's playing at NYU's Skirball Auditorium. He was fortunate enough to land Academy Award-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman for the lead, but that's where his luck ended. Sellars' production is so bad that a mass exodus occurs during the intermission of every show. According to Will Pulos, a student and digital journalist at NYU, "I basically haven't seen a theatrical exodus that large since sitting through a community thea...
Letterman Extortionist Has Bills to Pay October 2, 2009WendieDavid Letterman 48 Hours producer Robert Halderman -- they call him "Joe" -- is an idiot. As more details of the David Letterman extortion plot are revealed, we've learned that Halderman deposited his $2M check that was given to him a couple of days ago in exchange for his silence. Unfortunately for him, it was a check with no funds to back it up . TMZ dug up Joe's 2004 divorce papers, of course. This guy was paying almost $6,000 a month in child and spousal support. No wonder he needed two million of David Letterman's dollars!...
Jon Gosselin Decides to be a Man. I’m Tired. October 2, 2009WendieJon Gosselin Jon Gosselin was on Larry King Live last night. I'm sorry guys, I don't think we're ever going to be free of these fuckwits. Now that Jon has been fired from his show, he feels that the show is not good for his kids and he doesn't want them involved with any filming. Of course it isn't good for his kids to be in front of a camera if Daddy Goss isn't getting paid for it! Jon explained to Larry that he looked in the mirror one day and didn't like what he saw. Thankfully his girlfriend's fa...
Quotables October 2, 2009WendieLauren Conrad "I think my acting is offensive! I'm an awful actor, I'm not super comfortable with it. In fact I was just trying to do lines … and they'll tell you, I cannot memorize lines." Lauren Conrad finally admits that she's a talentless slob in front of the camera, at last night's LC Lauren Conrad Kohl's launch party. She also confirmed that she will not be playing the starring role in the movie based on her book L.A. Candy. [gallery]...
Your Daily Lohan October 1, 2009WendieAli Lohan, Lindsay Lohan Lindsay showed up tonight at a Vogue party in Paris, because she's completely and totally stoned a fashion maven. I'm pleased to see her not wearing leggings or flannel, but I'm horrified to see her 15 year old sister Ali "How Can Your Mother Let You Walk Out Of The House Looking Like That?" Lohan looking like a backup dancer that just stepped off a Robert Plante video shoot. I can't even discuss the dude standing behind the two of them. He's obviously the dealer a friend, The paps are always loo...
Quotables October 1, 2009WendieMegan Fox "I used to have to dress up as a banana…I had the option of apple or banana. I always went with banana because it was thinner." Megan Fox in Nylon's October issue interview. Please, oh please let a picture of Megan Fox working at a smoothie bar surface. I need to see her dressed as a Chiquita. Also, is anyone working on a coffee table book of Megan Fox quotes? Because I really think it would be a best seller ... especially if you can get your hands on that banana pic. She's ama...
