Parental Emulasian
Listen, I'll admit it. Every time I look at Angelina with her brood of cutest children ever, my uterus starts to quake a little. And I'm not really into kids, quite frankly--they seem way too easy to break, and they always need to be feed Cheerios or mac 'n cheez, and they always ask questions like "Why? But why? But why? But why?"--and once they're three, they're only a decade being a teenager with a cell phone and belly ring and penchant for HATING YOU. Blegh. But look at those little... Read Full Story
Bad Timing Is a Bitch
During this horrible economic crisis, deemed our "economic Pearl Harbor" by Warren Buffett, when the Dow drops 700 points in a day and dips below 10,000 for the first time in 4 years, and people are worried about their jobs and their retirements, what we really need in this country is...a bailout plan? Job creation? Change? No, silly. We need more FABULOSITY. Which explains why E! chose to premiere Kimora Lee Simmons's E! True Hollywood Story Friday, chock full of sage wisdom for these...

DISGRASIAN OF THE WEAK: Gwen Ifill
Dearest Gwen, Love you, love your work. There is no question of that. Here's the thing: You had a tough night last night, with a big spill down the stairs, tons of folks accusing that you were probably too Pro-Obama to moderate the Vice Presidential debate fairly, and close physical proximity to the most ridiculous candidate ever to stand on the debate stage. That all sucks. And you had a big job on your hands. But we can't help but think that the fear of seeming biased ultimately caused... Read Full Story
Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting (Again)
DreamWorks has announced that they are officially working on a sequel to their animasian money-pooper hit, Kung Fu Panda, with a 3-D sequel slated for release in 2011. Funnyman Jack Black will reprise his role as Po the plucky Panda, and Angelina Jolie her role as the Tigress. Oh boy! I can't wait until the release of the next film and am truly looking forward to again seeing Black do... ...stupid kung fu poses... ...in every... ...friggin'... ...goddamn photozzZzzZzzzz. Source...

Sign O' the Times
Seen this week on McCain Blogette, Meghan McCain's "Musings and Pop Culture on the Political Trail" blog: Shannon Bae, filmmaker and member of Meghan's blog "team," in Sacramento I really don't care who people vote for. Okay, maybe I care a little, but what I'm mostly concerned with is that people care about who they themselves are voting for. That's why I find the homemade sign "KOREANs 4 McCAIN" (pictured) so appalling. To put it mildly, it is a piece of dogshit. The "s" tacked on... Read Full Story
Men Seldom Make Passes at Girls Who Wear Glasses, But When They Do, They Earn Fatwas
Hey, here's a first: Pakistan President Zardari has accomplished what no other person has ever done in the history of all mankind--he's united Muslim clerics AND Pakistani feminists, together in condemnation of his icky behavior during a recent meeting with VP wannabe Sarah Palin, which demonstrated that the days of Pervezes ruling Pakistan are not yet over. Despite his unprecedented achievement, Zardari still incurred a fatwa. Poor guy! It has yet to be confirmed whether a second fatwa... Read Full Story
BIRTHDAY CELEBRASIAN!
Happy birthday to our favorite Harajuku slave owner people-as-accessories designer style biter pop songstress Gwen Stefani, who turns 39 tomorrow. Because Gwen is no longer "just a girl," it's probably time for her to say goodbye to the folly of her bygone youth--and by that we mean, STOP KEEPING HUMANS AS PETS AND INVEST IN A SHITLOAD OF EYE CREAM, YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT.

Viet Mankinis
Say what you will about the Borat mankini--the hideous neon yellow reminds you of that crazy hipster, Blaine, from this season of Project Runway, the V-shape sends you into Nixon flashbacks, the exposed pelvic bones and pubes make you wanna ralph. Sure! Personally, I think it's pretty rad. But, oddly enough, the outfit really, really offends some folks. Apparently, it really bugs ma peeps back home in Vietnam! Word on the world news front is that two college kids in Hanoi have been... Read Full Story
Gotcha Again: Sarah Palin Reads!
In yet another installment of her ongoing interview with Katie Couric, Governor Palin was asked to divulge what news publications she'd read prior to her bid for VP, aiding the development of her positions on the issues (jump to 3:45 of the clip below). Transcript below: COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your worldview, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world? PALIN: I've read... Read Full Story
