| Jennifer Aniston & Justin Theroux’s casual photo-op in Paris: super-cute? Posted: 12 Jun 2012 08:32 AM PDT
Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are in Paris. Thank God. I'm actually really grateful that JustJen came outside and walked around Paris in full view of the paparazzi. It's been forever and a day since we had new candid photos of them together, and these photos should get me through the summer. Jennifer is so thoughtful! Apparently, JustJen arrived in Paris on Sunday, and they immediately checked into a luxury hotel on the Right Bank, but they only stayed there for a night and then switched hotels on Monday. According to People Mag, they've already taken a walk in the Tuileries Gardens, gone shopping at the boutique Colette, and a stop by the Palais-Royal. I think both of them look pretty good in these photos – they look relaxed and happy and coordinated but not matchy-matchy. I wonder if one of them (or both of them) puts thought into that. Is it like, "Hey, baby, we're going to walk around Paris – shades of blue and black?" Justin's pants are still too tight for my taste, but at least they're not those ridiculous skinny jeans that we was wearing all of last year. I really like his leather jacket – Aniston should totally borrow it, because I kind of hate her dated navy blazer. That kind of blazer was super-popular in the early 1990s. Didn't Julia Roberts wear the same blazer in Pretty Woman? Those giant gold buttons are hypnotizing – Duchess Kate woulf adore this buttony blazer. As for Jennifer's jeans – she's always trying to make a new jeans-style "happen" but I rarely see the appeal in her pants-style. Those jeans look super-tight in the crotch too. In case you're wondering "WHY?" for this photo-op… Rock of Ages comes out on June 15th. Justin adapted the screenplay, and he's been doing the red carpet premieres solo. Like, Jennifer thinks it's a bridge too far to walk a red carpet with him, but they'll totally do a posed photo-op in Paris? Celebrities are so bizarre. Still, their body language seems very relaxed. While I think both of them have ulterior motives in this relationship, I do think they're for real, and I buy that they adore each other.

| Should Rihanna go to rehab & does she have narcissistic personality disorder? Posted: 12 Jun 2012 08:22 AM PDT
There are some new photos of Rihanna out and about in New York City yesterday. CB had to blur out her nips, which says something about Rihanna's "street style" doesn't it? I can't imagine walking outside of my home wearing what amounts to a transparent, bandeau-style tube top and little skirt. I don't care if it's really hot outside – there's no excuse for this. Meanwhile, the whole "Rihanna has been partying way too much" story is getting more and more traction. Several outlets claimed that Rihanna canceled a trip to the UK last week because she was so hungover/strung out, although Rihanna claimed she just canceled the trip to spend time with her family. Now there's a report claiming that Jay-Z wants Rihanna to go to rehab:
Hm… I think it's more likely that Rihanna is simply partying too hard and surrounding herself with yes-men who let her do whatever she wants. I don't think she has a personality disorder, and I don't think she's "crazy" or she has some kind of intense psychological problem. She's just a messed-up girl with too much money, too much access to drugs, and zero limitations. Do I think she's really screwed up about men? Sure. Do I think she should stop tweeting all of her personal stuff? Sure. But all of that is not narcissistic personality disorder. It's all part and parcel of being a screwed up young celebrity. Rihanna should take a break – from everything. No partying, no work, no Twitter, no dating. Just go somewhere and get some rest and get her head together. But no one ever listens to me.

| Jodie Marsh on how bodybuilding saved her from committing suicide Posted: 12 Jun 2012 08:01 AM PDT
Jodie, 33, has found new direction and literal strength through a strict bodybuilding regime and a diet that just sounds awful to me. Jodie just won her division of in a women’s bodybuilding contest in the US, The International Natural Bodybuilding Federation championships in Washington DC. She gave an extended interview to The Sun detailing how she was so depressed she considered crashing her car and ending her life. Bodybuilding lifted her out of despair and helped her become a champion. In this contest, she kind of looks like tanning mom on steroids in a Ronald McDonald wig, but good for her. I can’t imagine having the discipline and commitment it must have required to achieve this kind of body. Here’s more, thanks to The Sun:
[From The Sun] You can see her diet on The Sun’s website and it’s outrageous. All she eats are eggs, rice, vegetables and protein shakes. She doesn’t even get chicken, but she’s a vegetarian so that make sense. I’m not a fan of that look, but good for her. She’s obviously found her purpose. Hopefully that brown stuff washes off.

| Miley Cyrus shows off her gluten-free Pilates body in a corset: too thin or just fine? Posted: 12 Jun 2012 07:53 AM PDT
This is a photo Miley Cyrus tweeted and then deleted (I can't find it on her feed). Yeah… when I was 16 years old, I was obsessed with corsetry too. You can have a lot of fun with that stuff when you're young and thin. Nowadays, I have to talk myself into even looking at Spanx because I know all of that shape wear stuff is so uncomfortable. Control-top pantyhose is my limit. So, do we need to have a conversation about Miley's really slender figure? I've said before that I kind of envy her life these days – she spends her days going to Pilates classes, getting high and having sex with her hot fiancé. But in the corset photo, and the photos of Miley shopping in New Orleans (below), you can really see how much weight she's lost over the past few months. I'm not going to get all judgy – after all, we do know she's been exercising a lot and she went gluten-free. And she still has her teenage metabolism. Maybe her weight loss is healthy. I don't know though… personally, I'd like to see her gain some weight back. She looks so friggin’ tiny. Meanwhile, just days after Miley announced her engagement to Liam Hemsworth, Miley's big brother Trace Cyrus announced that he and Brenda Song have called off their engagement. Brenda and Trace's relationship over the past year has been kind of sketchy – first, they announced their pregnancy, and then Brenda's mom claimed Brenda was never pregnant, and then Brenda and Trace got engaged… it was all a big mess. Trace released a statement: “Brenda and I have decided to go our separate ways. We split up a couple of months ago. We will continue to focus on our careers. I wish Brenda the best and much success in the future. I hope everyone can respect our privacy about this situation.” Poor Trace. Ten bucks says Brenda dumped him.

| Lady Gaga to Madonna: “Things are really different than they were 25 years ago…” Posted: 12 Jun 2012 06:44 AM PDT
Lady Gaga tweeted the above ^^ photo last night – it looks like her face/head is still really bruised after one of her dancers slammed a metal pole into her head onstage in New Zealand. Poor Gaga – I bet everything in that general area is as sore as can be. Anyway, you remember how there was video of Madonna "covering" Gaga's "Born This Way" a few weeks ago? The medley is actually part of Madge's show now – she sings "Express Yourself" and then goes into "Born this Way" and then moves on to another song. Pretty much everyone thinks Madonna is just doing it to make a point – that point being "Born This Way is pretty much the same song as Express Yourself, so Lady Gaga is a copycat." Once again, here's how Madonna does it: I actually think Madge is pretty smart for making her point that way – she had already made some comments about it ("I thought, 'What a wonderful way to redo my song.' I mean, I recognized the chord changes. When I heard it on the radio, I said 'that sounds very familiar.' It feels reductive") in interviews, but hearing "Express Yourself" and "Born This Way" side-by-side, live, in concert, is extraordinary. Gaga didn't really have anything to say when the Madonna videos first came out. But when Gaga was performing in New Zealand last week, many think she made some pointed comments directed at Madge. In the middle of her stage show, Gaga said:
Yeah… I get Gaga's point: "Stop hating, bitch." She wants to call a truce with Madge. Sort of. Obviously, many people think the "Things are really different than they were 25 years ago…" comment is pointed – as in, Madonna's heyday was 25 years ago, and Gaga is saying things have changed since then. Although I have to say – Gaga's argument falls flat. If she just kept it about respect and NO HATE, that would be one thing. But making it about how things were "25 years ago" is ridiculous given that Gaga is flat-out copying stuff Madonna did 25 years ago. Obviously, Madonna is still relevant, and she was relevant 25 years ago, which is why Gaga copies so much of Madonna. Gaga's comments start around the 2:20 mark.

| Lindsay Lohan told crack-lies to the police after her car accident, of course Posted: 12 Jun 2012 04:33 AM PDT
Last Friday, Lindsay Lohan crashed her (rented) Porsche into the back of an 18-wheeler. Cracktastrophe, crack drama and crack denials ensued. Because Lindsay's brain is so fried and permanently pickled, she and her crack team of handlers/enablers had a hell of time getting their stories straight. If you'd like to see recap all of the events as of Sunday, go here. I'm not even going to bother trying summarize beyond "Bitch is a crack liar, and the state of California is a g–damn joke." So, what new information do we have now? Lots and lots. Bullet points! *Larry Thompson, the producer of Liz & Dick, told Deadline that Lindsay is "shaken but not stirred… She wants to work, we are sending her to makeup hoping to resume production and get as much as we can done." Even though Lindsay came to work after her ten-second trip to the hospital, producers had to rearrange the schedule because of the extensive makeup work that needs to be done to cover A) Lindsay's bruises and B) Lindsay's crack face. *Thompson also told Deadline that Lindsay isn't supposed to be driving – his production company provides Lindsay a limousine to and from work, but on Friday "When they went to pick her up today, for some reason she decided they (Lohan and her assistant) would get in her own car, so the limousine driver followed them." Thompson has already alerted the insurance company that the production is already losing money, and Thompson says, "I was nervous before the movie started, now I'm just petrified… I was telling someone: Lindsay went to the doctor, and I should go see a psychiatrist." For God's sake – don't act like you didn't KNOW something was going to happen. It's Lindsay Lohan, for the love of God. OF COURSE she's going to act like a crackhead. Why are people expressing surprise? *Meanwhile, Lindsay's poor cracked-out rep Steve Honig was sent out to formally deny certain aspects of the story to People Magazine. Honig tells People, "Lindsay cooperated fully with law enforcement. She has answered all their questions and provided them with everything they have asked for.” Honig also slams the other driver for his allegations that LL was trying to bribe him – Honig says, “It seems to me once he realized he wasn’t going to get anything from Lindsay he decided to get cash by telling tales to the tabloids. I hope he got whatever money he was looking for. Personally, all I care about is that Lindsay and [her assistant] Gavin are okay.” Oh, STFU. *BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TMZ reported on Monday that "law enforcement sources" are telling them that "Lindsay Lohan lied to cops Friday by telling them she was NOT driving the Porsche that slammed into a truck on the Pacific Coast Highway, and as a result she could be prosecuted and her probation could be revoked." When Lindsay was in the hospital right after the accident, cops from the Santa Monica Police Dept. took her statement, and "Lindsay told police she was a passenger in the Porsche and her assistant was driving. But the lie didn’t stick because later Lindsay’s assistant told police Lindsay was behind the wheel." Witnesses saw Lindsay behind the wheel too, and why would her initial story be "he cut me off" and "my brakes failed" if she wasn't driving? *So what could come out of Lindsay telling police officers flat-out crack lies? I believe the state of California's penalty for "a celebrity lying to a police officer" is "a slap on the firecrotch." In reality, TMZ says that it's a crime to provide false information to a police officer and considering Lindsay is STILL on probation, she could be violated and sent to jail. Which won't happen.

| Charlize Theron shows off her newly buzzed hair during an outing with baby Jackson Posted: 12 Jun 2012 04:25 AM PDT
These are some new photos of Charlize Theron and her son Jackson in LA yesterday. Fame/Flynet says she was taking Jackson to the doctor for a checkup – I always wonder how photo agencies get those details, or whether they're just making the assumption, "Oh, she's walking into a pediatrician's office – it must be time for Jackson's checkup!" Anyway, I just wanted to talk about these photos because there's a lot to discuss: *OMG Jackson is so cute. OMG. He has a beautiful little face. And he's so tiny and alert! BABIES! I love his green pants. I love his itty-bitty kicks. And I especially love his hat. *Is Charlize carrying a diaper bag? Is that fabulous black suede bag her diaper bag? Or is it just a tote bag that she repurposed as a diaper bag? My guesstimate for the cost of that "diaper bag": $2000. *I kind of love Charlize's outfit. It's the kind of outfit that only really works on someone like Charlize, though. I couldn't work those Capri pants. And horizontal stripes make me look like a circus tent. Also: LOOK! She's wearing flats. Hallelujah. *As Lainey pointed out, it really looks like Charlize buzzed her hair. Is it all gone? Is Charlize copying Anne Hathaway? Did Charlize just get tired of her sometimes unflattering weaves and hairpieces, and in a fit of pique, she just shaved her head? Or did Charlize get a buzz cut for her role in Mad Max: Fury Road? Charlize is supposed to do that film at some point (IMDB says July) with Tom Hardy, Zoe Kravitz and Nicolas Hoult. *Re: the buzz cut – if it is for Mad Max (probably), do you think more or less of Charlize for undergoing a drastic style change for the sake of a film which will definitely not score her an Oscar nomination? Do you get what I'm asking? Like, Anne Hathaway cut off her hair for Les Miserables, and that transformation will be the centerpiece of her Oscar campaign. Do you think Anne's transformation-for-awards is better or worse than Charlize's transformation-for-badassery?

| True Blood premiere: amazing or more of the same convoluted plot lines? Posted: 12 Jun 2012 04:21 AM PDT
Also, I’m going to be frank here, I was really hoping that Tara was dead for good. (You can watch creator Alan Ball explain why they wanted to bring her back as a vampire in this “behind the scenes” video on HBO’s website. It’s all about putting her in charge instead of having her be a victim.) People has a good overview of the plot this episode, so I’ll quote their recap as it would exhaust me to do my own. (You can watch a video recap here.)
[From People.com] I didn’t see Tara bite Sookie at the end of the episode – I saw Tara lunge at Sookie, (which makes sense as Sookie is supposedly irresistible to vampires) and I assumed that Pam would jump out at the last minute and save her. During that scene I was wondering why Jessica hasn’t whoosed over to help. She’s in the mansion right near them, after all, and she has vampire super hearing. Some of my favorite parts of this episode were the brilliant quotes from the key characters. The absolute best line was from Pam: “I am wearing a Walmart sweatshirt for ya’ll. If that’s not a demonstration of team spirit, I don’t know what is.” I also liked when Jason explained to the co-ed that he shouldn’t sleep with her, and when he told gay vampire preacher Steve Newlin that he wasn’t interested but let him down easy. Steve exclaimed “I’m a gay vampire American, and I love you Jason Stackhouse.” Jason said he was flattered but added “This dog doesn’t bark that way.” It’s the lines that keep this show interesting when the plots drag on, but that’s nothing new for True Blood. Here are some photos of Alex Skarsgard bringing his casual hotness to the street. This man just exudes sex. There are also new photos of Joe Manganiello hosting a pool party, and you can see those here. He doesn’t do it for me, so I’m not going to include them. Alex is wearing a Sweden jersey to support his country in the European soccer championship. Unfortunately Sweden lost 2:1 to the Ukraine in yesterday’s match. They still have two more matches to redeem themselves, although they’re playing strong contenders England and France. I’ll be rooting for them and thinking of Alex. Look at these pics – his friends are hot too!

| Are Kanye West & Kim Kardashian “seriously” talking marriage & babies? Posted: 12 Jun 2012 04:20 AM PDT
Despite the fact that Kim Kardashian is very much married, and will likely be so for the rest of 2012, she and Kanye West do seem to be moving steadily along. Honestly, everything seems to be going very smoothly for them, which surprises me for several reasons. One, Kim is a drama-queen and a famewhore who can turn any little thing into an international headline. Two, Kanye is a drama queen in a completely different way – he is the very definition of a touchy, melodramatic "artistic" personality. How is it that Kim and Kanye have been dating for months (years?) with so little public drama? Sure, there have been some stories about Kim being a jealous monster, but mostly it's been sunshine and roses around Kimye (eh). Maybe they "get" each other. Maybe they're both superficial monsters who only care about sex and possessions? Or maybe it's the real deal. That's what Us Weekly keeps claiming – every other week, Us Weekly has story about Kim and Kanye talking about marriage, moving in together, and wanting to get pregnant. Is that really happening?
I've mentioned that my mom is into the Kardashians, right? Well, over the weekend my mom put on her "I'm a mystical prophet who can predict the future of celebrities" voice and she said, "The next thing is Kim is going to get pregnant. She'll probably do it before she's even divorced." My mom is right about a lot of things, so maybe she's one of Us Weekly's sources. What would a Kim-Kanye pregnancy look like? It would be epic, that's for sure.

| Eva Mendes & Ryan Gosling are back in LA, she continues to ply him with Starbucks Posted: 12 Jun 2012 04:17 AM PDT
These are some new photos of Eva Mendes getting (you guessed it) Starbucks yesterday in LA. So it appears that Eva and Ryan Gosling are back from their wonderful and exciting Canadian tour, where Ryan brought his girlfriend to his mom's college graduation, thus signifying to the world that Eva is THE ONE. Did you just have a rage-stroke? I don't really know if Ryan thinks Eva is "The One" but they do seem to be surprisingly solid for a celebrity couple. Especially considering that just a few months ago, it seemed like Ryan was looking for a way out. But Eva got him back! How does she do it? An insane body, for sure. But she's also plying him with unlimited Starbucks. Can you just spend a minute talking about these photos? I realize that it might have been steamy and humid yesterday in LA (was it?) – but it feels like the paparazzo smeared Vaseline on the lens so that Eva could be photographed like an old-fashioned romantic heroine. I wonder if this was a mistake, a minor glitch by the photographer… or whether Eva is setting these candid photo-ops up, and she likes to be photographed a certain way? She definitely wants people to know she's buying coffee for Ryan – even the photo agency notes that she was picking stuff up for her boyfriend. Is Eva the official coffee-getter of the relationship? Because I never see Ryan at Starbucks. At some point, shouldn't they invest in a quality coffee maker? Perhaps a French press? Anyway, they've lasted longer than I had predicted, so I'm not going to make any more calls about their future. They've been doing this for eight or nine months so far – it will be a year in September/October, I think. What's next? A breakup? Or a baby? All of the caffeine isn't good for babies.
