What the what? Chris Kattan of Saturday Night Live fame was recently married. Pretty cool, or so we thought. But then 8 weeks after getting hitched Corky Romano goes and gets himself separated according to E!Online. Don’t get us wrong, 8 weeks is a long time for anyone to do anything or anyone… if they’re 14. All the way back in late June we thought that these 2 stood a reasonable chance of making a real go of it. It wasn’t like they got married on an emotional bender in Vegas (we’re looking...

by Sarah Most weddings go off without a hitch; the bride wears white, couple says “I do,” and everyone gets trashed at the reception. But not all weddings go as planned. Below, this week’s wedding debacles… Waiters and barkeeps beware! You may get a little more than a sloppy kiss from a happy bridesmaid at your next job. It must have been the bride and groom’s violent love set off a guest at the a celebration in Edinburgh UK, where someone, (an unrequited love, perhaps?) attacked a waiter... Read Full Story

by Jessica Fancy a shag with Dave Eggers, Diablo Cody or David Sedaris? Better check the Guardian’s list of Top Ten Literary Virgins first! Yes, some of the great writers of Western civilization lived most or all of their lives sans carnal knowledge — including romantic scribe Jane Austen. The Guardian writes: Despite the “quite a bit of sex” smeared on [Jane Austen’s] life and work by the biopic Becoming Jane and virtually all the recent screen adaptations (notably the obnoxious...

Damn, dude. The US Track & Field team cannot seem to get it going. First Tyson Gay falls apart in the 100 M, though no one may be able to touch that Bolt guy. Then Lolo Jones finally met a hurdle she didn’t like (in the 100 M Hurdles) and displayed her devastation on the track after finishing. And Sanya Richards had a huge lead in the 400 M (a lap around the track) but tweaked her hammy and staggered to a Bronze finish. Following Tuesday’s events the US Olympic track squad had a disappointing... Read Full Story

by Michael Berger When the games come to a close, 302 gold medals will have been awarded at the 2008 Summer Olympics. Katerina Emmons, a shooter from the Czech Republic, won the very first one. Emmons was indeed the first athlete in Beijing to hear her national anthem played on the medal stand, amidst the awe and exuberation of being crowned an Olympic champion—a feeling made even more special by the person with whom she was able to share it. Her husband. Sometimes the toll of becoming an... Read Full Story

Don’t get us wrong, we like Donnie Wahlberg’s work but this being news is because today is a slooooow news day. Things had better pick up after Labor Day, we almost posted a picture of Adrian Grenier seducing some girls on a beach with the time-testing technique acoustic guitar d-baggery. Yeah, slow.

by Jessica Here’s a study that’ll launch a cadre of 13-year-old boys into careers in evolutionary psychology: British researchers “discovered” that men are most attracted to petite women with long legs and big boobs. The Daily Mail reports that in the study, both men and women found “symmetric” bodies more attractive than “asymmetric” ones. However, scientists say we don’t notice body symmetry directly; instead we look for cues of symmetry, such as height and the length of the legs. I... Read Full Story

As part of a safe sex initiative in India, the BBC World Service Trust India (in conjunction with the Gates Foundation) has introduced a novel approach to the stem the tide of AIDS in the tech-savvy country; a ring tone.

by Sarah Ever woken up after a night out and found the person you’re in bed with doesn’t look like the hotness you thought you were going home with the night before? Well, science is on your side; that dude did look better last night. Researchers in England have shown what generations of college students have always known: beer goggles exist. Scientists compared people who downed vodka, wine and beer to those who didn’t drink any hooch, and found that the imbibers thought people were more... Read Full Story

Jeepers creepers. No one knows when it’s time to letting sleeping dogs lie, do they? OK, so you know how Jennifer Aniston was totally into John Mayer (honestly, who among us hasn’t been there?) and then things went south? Great. You’re most of the way there. While there is all matter of conjecture about what caused the split (some gossip hounds think that the twin billing courtesy of Angelina Jolie was partly to blame), there even appears to be some dissenting opinions over who dumped whom...
