OMG! You think Jennifer Hudson looked great!? What were you smoking, cos I want some! I can't deny that the dress was gorgeous; the colour set off her skin & the empire waist was fab, but the bust wasn't right for a girl with a D cup. Not at all. She looked like a fuckin' python strapped chess piece!

You so remind me of somebody . . .

jennifer hudson's dress was better than last year's, i'll give her that.

diablo cody could have worn a bathrobe and still woulda been the coolest girl there. didn't like the dress, but the leopard print was perfect.

i loved jessica alba's dress... color, boob plumage, everything.

Few things!!

I saw Christina's boobs on TMZ, they made a comment about the size of them. Hey Douchebags, she gave birth last month!!!!

I like Diablo's dress.

Jennifer Hudson's dress was nice, but I don't think it was that nice on her. Word on the uniboob deal.

I did not like Cameron Diaz's dress.

Jennifer Garner looked lovely.

On a completely different note, Lindsay Lohan does Marilyn. I forgot to bring this up when I first saw it...

So, I heard this morning that Noel Gallagher is selling his house (can't remember where) because he can't stand living next to James Blunt.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Poor guy.

I went to take a look at CA's boobs on TMZ, and they didn't look at all horrid. But there are some pictures of her floating about the internet right now, and they are extreme close-ups and in extreme color and it's just tooooo much with the bleach blonde hair, the big red lips, and the huge mommy boobies with the clearly visible green veins... yuck

So Pammy apparently wants her marriage to Rick Solomon annulled on the grounds of fraud.

i am not in on the diablo cody fan base. she reminds me of a typical hottopic schlumpy goth chick. and she's not a stripper turned writer. she's a chick who stripped out of kinky courosity and then wrote about it. as peter griffen would say, "that really grinds my gears". plus...diablo cody? seriously? someone changed their name to that?

What does that even mean, anyhow? Seriously--Wasn't that the grounds for Renee' Z and Kenny C?? I mean...what does that MEAN??? She found out he doesn't have a dick? That would be fraud. She found out he doesn't have money? That would be fraud. She found out he doesn't.....? What??!!

Can anyone TELL me?? *taps toes and waits*

--Quiet--

Quiet...I am confused about the fraud thing too. Apparently that is a common reason cited for annulment. But I have no idea what it really means.

Oscar notes:

I thought Diablo Cody looked beautiful. Loved the dress, loved the hair and makeup.

I did not like Jessica Alba's dress at all. I thought it looked kinda cheap. I was not a fan of the feathers.

I thought Cate Blanchett looked AMAZING

Daniel Day Lewis's wife's dress was horrid. Those 2 have some terrible fashion taste.

Thought Jennifer Hudson looked great.

I loved Katherine Heigl's dress, hair, & makeup.

Nicole Kidman...not sure what that necklace was doing

I love Ellen Paige, but did not like the dress she was wearing.

Jennifer Garner looked SO beautiful

All in all the looks were boring this year. Everyone played it safe, not sure why.

That is hilarious that Noel G does not want to live by James Blunt anymore. Can't say I blame him!

I should have left Mr. Pug on the grounds of fraud when I found out he doesn't do dishes.

"You or your spouse were fraudulently induced into entering the marriage. Fraud may include the concealment of an important fact, such as permanent impotence or sterility, a criminal history, or infection with a sexually transmitted disease."

Fraud in the state of California is the most broad legal term for annulment. I'm sure that's why they chose it.

Me, I think it's just cheaper than a divorce to get an annulment. If the marriage never existed she won't have to give him shit. Plus, she won't be refered to in the press as the "thrice married Pamela Anderson". She can forget all about that slimey time in her life.

ETA, I think Kenny Chesney looks like he molests pets.

Oh, I'm pretty sure there is more slimey time in her future. Do we really believe she won't be married [and possibly divorced again] at some point in 2008? The year is young, people.

She needs to stop getting involved with people who frequently video tape themselvese having sex with their partners!

And enough with the ratboys already. Just because he has a big cock doesn't mean he's a nice person!

AP, Kenny Chesney does have a certain creep factor to him.

Word! What is with the ratboys?

I just find Salomon sooooo skeevy. Put Tommy Lee & Kid Rock together & they are not as icky as he is. He gives me the heebies. The guy actually sold their sex tape! Who does that?! Every time I see him I want to have a hot HAZMAT shower.

It's the hat, CH. It's the hat. Worn all low & shady like, so you can't see his eyes. And maybe the boots. If you aren't mucking out a stall, they are the male equivalent of high heels.

When he takes the hat off though...not the most attractive of men.

Any man who would sell your sex tape is probably not the nicest of people.

I really don't mind Pammy, but she deserves a good shake for her taste in men.

I'm right there with you. I read her book when it first came out and besides that whole smug "aren't I cook and hip" attitude that permeated it, she really, really pissed me off with a sentence near the end. She acknowledged that a lot of women in sex work had histories of abuse. She then said "I was never molested as a child. I guess I wasn't pretty enough."

Excuse me, but WTF??!!??
How far is that from "what were you doing to deserve being raped?"

That was inexcusable.

Plus, that dress looked like Miami Beach matron all the way.

Fuck, that sentence was totally inappropriate. Woooooow.

annoush, are you fucking serious? It implies that children are molested b/c they are "pretty," rather than because the molesters are sick. It puts far too much on the child, when they should be completely removed from the equation when looking for cause. UGH.

I just heard that Britney's expecting again. Why do some people breed?

*will look for an article or something about it.*

I thought Diablo Cody was cool until I learned more about her from you guys. She seems more like a trendy jaded hipster who tries to rile people up. Maybe she'll fade into the background now that she's got her big award.

Here's a link to an article about the rumored pregnancy.

http://www.transworldnews.com/NewsStory.as...38482&cat=2

(giddy over getting to break some kind of news)

One of the mags has rumours of Brit's pregnancy on the front cover.

Kat Von D is busy mouthing off again about the Miami Ink boys.

And that sick motherfucker Joe Francis is still in a Nevada jail!!!! bwaaaahahahahahaha.

Any recent news on Brit Brit's pregnancy status?

speaking of weight gain, has anyone seen pics of K Fed lately??? He was always a rat boy, but now he looks like a (more?) grotesque rat boy.

Ya, I saw that picture of K-Fed playing golf and he gained so much weight! Does he not dance anymore??

his gut was actually hanging over his pants, like flopped over his belt buckle. it was so gross.

I've been away for a couple weeks-- what's the latest on this Kat Von D stuff- did she really send that picture?

I watched the last episode of LA Ink, where Pixie stormed out- man, there were so many things both sides did wrong there.

I don't watch LA Ink, so I have no idea what's going on, as for the picture thing, there was supposed to be something on Miami Ink about what happened. I think I'll do some poking around to see.

Halle Berry named her daughter Nahla Ariela Aubry. I wonder if the first name is pronounced the same as the lioness cub in The Lion King and if the middle name is after The Little Mermaid.

Bunny, that's hilarious!

Omg that does sound SO disney!

Actually there are a lot more cool disney names to choose from. Ursula, Maleficent, Bambi, Cruella, Drusilla, Lucinda (wasn't that the other stepsister?), Wendy, Alice...

actually I looked it up, the other ugly stepsister was Anastasia

LOL bunny, I forgot all about The Little Mermaid!

My friend and I were griping yesterday about the unnecessary "h" in Nahla. At which point I brought up Lion King. Poor kid.

The worst Media Whore of all time... Michael Moore! This guy does nothing but cause contoversy for the sake of controversy. Dishonest and misleading film tactics, rabblerousing... We need less Moore! We need less Moore!

Hee, the Disney connection amused me!

I was reading this and I'm thinking that the "very personal" implies that Coco has the condition...

not sure about the disney connection with Nahla.

the word nahla, also written as nahlah, is used in swahili (a traditionally oral, unwritten language) and is supposedly arabic in origin (i don't speak arabic, but it *is* a different written alphabet, so the words need to be transcribed).

ANYway, it means a drink of water, in both swahili and arabic. both languages are african. i'd guess that halle got the name from those connections rather than being pure disney.

in spanish, ariela means lion of god. my guess is that may originally be arabic as well, given the moorish influence so predominant in spain and portugual.

it's pretty, regardless. at least it isn't pilot inspektor or apple or something equally ridiculous.

I don't think that anyone is suggesting that Disney invented the names Nahla or Ariel (or "Ariela" in this case). We all know those names have been around for ages. Nevertheless, these are still the names of characters in two very popular Disney films from the late '80s and '90s. So for Halle to use both names for her baby ... well, it sounds especially Disney-esque to those of us who grew up watching The Little Mermaid and Lion King.

Gods, the ED condition sounds horrible!

I think it says something about my "media conditioning" that I know consider Apple to be perfectly acceptable baby name.

Talk about "media conditioning"- when I read "ED", I thought of Bob Dole and those early Viagra commercials. Then I remembered the skin condition article. Yeah, that's unpleasant.

I, too, think Apple is far, far from the worst baby name out there.

so, it's like 430 in the morning. i'm sick, working on reports watching grindhouse, when i wonder, "has rose mcgowan had face work done?" actually, i've been wondering that for some time because there is something different about her.

oh, and imagine my surprise to find out she is engaged to robert rodriguez.

star, I heard that she was actually in a bad car accident and that's why she looks different. Here's a quote from wikipedia "McGowan suffered serious injuries in a car accident early in 2007. Riding as a passenger, her car was struck by another vehicle and the force of the impact drove her eyeglasses into her face. McGowan is quoted as saying, "I didn't realize I was hurt until I put my hand to my face and felt the flap of skin. My glasses had sliced me under my eye." After obtaining the services of a plastic surgeon, McGowan is reported to be suffering no long-lasting consequences from the incident."

ahhhhh. thanks candycane_girl. makes sense now.

So, I read in the Globe and Mail today, which got the information from the AP, quoted from the Boston Herald, New Kids on the Block have reformed and are releasing a new ablum. I wish I was telling this to you on April Fools.

I'm surprised Donnie Wahlberg went along with it. VH1 tried to reunite them a few years ago on a show called Bands Reunited and I think only two guys were up for it.

well there's usually one thing that makes bands change their minds - $$$$$$$

Nobody seems to be talking about how Madonna looks totally different all of a sudden...

Awful Plastic Surgery is talking about it, Dusty. Scary.

They were making fun of her on The Soup recently (?- I think; maybe it was something else on E!) where she was with Mr. Madonna at the opening of one of his movies and someone was trying to interview Guy. She kept butting in, interrupting, saying all this stupid stuff. It was very uncomfortable to watch and Guy looked like he was restraining the urge to strangle her.

Do we think JayZ & Beyonce got married or not? All weekend, I kept hearing they got married on Friday . . .

ETA: it is official.

Does anyone have thoughts on Lily Allen's new blonde hair? I'm not sure if I like it or not.
