| Dear ‘Glee’: I Love You, But I Think We Need to Break Up Posted: 25 May 2011 11:25 AM PDT
There's no easy way to say this. We've had some wonderful times together. But I can’t kid myself anymore. I'm the only one in this relationship putting in any effort. And two years is a long time to feel that way. So I'm breaking up with you. Of course, things were amazing at the beginning. I admit it, I was completely infatuated. I was into the littlest things about you — things that other people found irritating. Your contrived plotting. Your weirdly motiveless supporting characters. I found it all charming. I defended you to my friends when they said you weren’t smart enough for me. I argued with them, told them they didn’t understand you. If they watched you like I watched you, they’d see. I told them you were using popular music and stilted storylines to disguise really smart, subversive material. I said it so often that I believed it. But was it actually true? I'm not so sure. I mean, really: A kissing-booth episode? What are you, Happy Days? (“So?” I hear you saying. “The O.C. had a kissing booth episode. Saved by the Bell had one. You loved those shows.” Well, I knew Zack Morris, and you, sir, are no Zack Morris.) I'm not saying you're stupid. You have flashes of brilliance, and lord knows you're smarter than most of the shows vying for my viewing affection. But like pretty much every "lesson" Mr. Schuester teaches his kids, you're just not as smart as you think you are. Unwarranted smugness? Not an attractive quality. And I've just been feeling wrung out by your treatment of me lately. Most days you just seem to decide where you want to end up and do whatever you need to do to get there, without considering me or my needs at all. Damn all consistency or continuity; if it's convenient for you, you'll throw the rules of narrative by the wayside. Hell, you don’t seem to recall conversations we've had from one week to the next. Remember that whole episode about unhealthy eating? Apparently not, because a month later you gave us one about body image issues, and nobody noticed we'd just had several of those conversations already. Santana’s a closeted lesbian? Funny, just a little while ago she was a proud pansexual. ("I made out with a mannequin. I even had a sex dream about a shrub that was just in the shape of a person.") Yes, you’ve tried to make it up to me, giving me little presents when I least expect it. The increased focus on the confidently large Lauren Zizes was a particularly lovely gift. And every scene with Burt Hummel, America's favorite dad, is like a whispered endearment in the night, reminding you why I fell for you in the first place. But they’re too little too late. In the end, I just can’t shake the feeling that we have very different ideas of what this relationship is really about. You seemed to believe that last week's episode was something very special, a beautiful time when we talked about our deep feelings. All I saw was a cheesy attempt at profundity: you held my hand, looked deep into my eyes and told me about how death is really sad and stuff, especially when the dead person is handicapped. Or that — and unless I am very mistaken, this seemed to be the entire point of the episode — it's better to be nice than to be mean. Seriously. That was the profound truth you wanted to tell me, that made it so important to have an almost completely joke-free episode? By the time you read this letter, you will have had your season finale — probably some huge romantic gesture meant to recapture my interest. I'm sure Rachel sang something show-stopping. I'm sure the costumes and the choreography were stunning. I'm sure Sue did something mind-bogglingly awful. But I'm not going to be there. You probably won't notice: You've got so many lovers, and most of them will stay with you no matter what happens, so long as you keep singing those silly love songs. The songs were fun — especially that awesome Thriller/Heads Will Roll mashup — but let's be honest: they were never enough, on their own, to carry all your other baggage. Will I miss you? Of course I will. Every once in a while: I'll be flipping through the channels and see a promo for your next season. Or I'll catch myself singing REO Speedwagon in the shower. And at the end of the night at a karaoke bar, when the DJ finally decides to let someone sing "Don't Stop Believing" and we all join in, I might even get a little misty. But that doesn't mean I'll be coming running back. I've given you too many last chances. It's time for me to go my own way, to learn who I am without you, between the hours of 9 and 10 p.m. on Wednesdays (8 to 9 p.m. Central). Goodbye.

| A Chat with the Mother of Sleeping Lady Gaga Baby Posted: 25 May 2011 11:11 AM PDT Yesterday, we posted a photo of Lady Gaga holding an adorable sleeping child on her lap, and his mother Jessica commented on the post. We chatted with Jessica , who explained the how the photo came to be — apparently Gaga asked to hold little Luke herself. It’s always so refreshing when celebs act like real humans, so check out what Jessica had to say. So, how did your son end up in Lady Gaga's lap? We were walking up to meet Gaga and get her autograph and she actually asked if she could please hold him. She was so sweet and great with him! She even autographed the shirt he was wearing and gave him a kiss! What was his reaction? When we were outside waiting to go in, he was very happy and he was dancing. He had fallen asleep, but when we woke up in Gaga’s arms he just gazed at her and smiled. It was really cute. Lady Gaga really gave us an amazing experience that we will never forget! How old is this cute kid? He’s 18 months old And is he a Gaga fan? He’s been a Gaga fan since he was a newborn. He hated car rides and would scream so hard, but become instantly silent when I would play “Bad Romance.” I would have to put the song on repeat the whole ride! Now, even at the young age of 18 months, it amazes me how he walks around the house singing lyrics from all three of her albums. I played Born this Way (which is awesome) in the car today and he was in his seat singing away! Post from: Crushable A Chat with the Mother of Sleeping Lady Gaga Baby  |
| STD Week: Here’s Everything You Need to Know About the Morning-After Pill Posted: 25 May 2011 10:42 AM PDT
• The pill can prevent pregnancy if you take it for up to five days after sex, and it's most effective when used within 72 hours. But the sooner you take it, the better chance it has of working. • How effective is it? If taken within 72 hours, it reduces the risk of pregnancy by 89%. • The pill is also effective when used right before intercourse – but you really shouldn’t make that a habit. • The pill is very, very safe – there have never been reports of serious complications. • Side effects? Nausea, cramping, dizziness, headaches, breast tenderness, irregular bleeding. Your period is likely to come either earlier or later than usual and be a different flow-level. Plus, you may become an emotional mess for a while. • Where can you get it? At your local drugstore or Planned Parenthood if you're 17 or older. Men too! Just walk on up and ask for it, piece of cake. • If you're younger than 17? You'll need to get a prescription. So again, head on over to your doctor or Planned Parenthood. • How much does it cost? Generally between $10 and $70. Planned Parenthood centers will sometimes charge on a sliding scale based on what you can afford. • What’s it called? Call it the morning-after pill, emergency contraception, or one of its three brand names: Plan B One-Step, ella, or Next Choice.

| Is MTV Covering Up the Ronnie/Situation Fight on ‘Jersey Shore’? Posted: 25 May 2011 10:37 AM PDT
And what is going down? Yesterday, reports circulated that The Situation and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro had gotten into a fight. Ronnie getting in a fight is pretty much standard operating procedure, but The Sitch prefers verbal arguments. From the photos of them returning separately to the house and MTV’s confirmation that Sitch made a trip to the hospital due to “an injury sustained in the house,” it sounds like Ronnie kicked Sitch’s butt. Sitch had red marks on his face (you can see them in this photo at left where he kind of resembles Cornholio from Beavis and Butthead), while Ronnie appeared to be unscathed. Several bloggers (including my personal hero Entertainment Lawyer) think that MTV is covering up what happened in the house, perhaps to protect Ronnie (he already has a pressing charge against him from that guy he punched in season 1 and almost didn’t get a visa to go to Italy as a result). While it is possible that MTV doesn’t want people knowing that two of their cast members got into a physical altercation, there is another possibility: that they’re going to try and make us wait until the show airs to find out what happened. Considering how much negative press the Italy season has gotten before even airing a single episode, I can understand why MTV might feel the need to scramble around and make sure there’s a good reason for viewers to tune in. They’ll probably hype the hell out of it for weeks in teaser clips for the season a la the Snooki punch. But right now, playing coy gets them plenty of press, and when they do finally give us the dish on what happened it will guarantee the show a whole new round of headlines. The Situation may have lost, but it looks like MTV is going to win. Post from: Crushable Is MTV Covering Up the Ronnie/Situation Fight on ‘Jersey Shore’?  |

| Chris Crocker (Calmly) Tells Britney to Leave the Stage Alone Posted: 25 May 2011 10:26 AM PDT
Crocker claims that he’s “keeping it real” when he says that Spears doesn’t want to be on the stage anymore, that it’s her managers who are forcing her to keep her pop career alive. “She doesn't look happy onstage,” he observes. “That's not me criticizing her as a person. That's me criticizing her as a performer… When I defended her in 2007 I was defending the attacks on her as a mother and as a person. She looked suicidal in 2007 and she needed someone to stick up for her.” It’s incredible how reasonable Crocker sounds when he’s not crying and screaming. It’s difficult to tell if his original video were orchestrated to jumpstart his Internet career, because it’s long enough ago that he could really have been a dedicated fan who was truly devastated by the haters going after Britney. Right about after then was the era where we came to suspect everyone of being famewhores. Here’s how he sums it up: “I’m saying, from a person-to-person… that cares about her, I don’t want to see her on stage if she don’t want to be on stage.” Bravo to Crocker for continuing to stand up for Spears, but doing so in an evenhanded way that acknowledged that she’s no longer the icon that he adored in the third grade.

Dear Glee,
We get it. Sometimes, despite all your efforts to be safe and responsible about sex, stuff happens. Like the condom breaks, or it gets stuck, or you realize you forgot to take your birth control. Something that makes you worry you could get pregnant. So, thankfully, there’s the morning-after pill for these situations. And what, exactly, is it? Here's a round-up of facts about emergency contraceptive:
One of the biggest spoilers for reality shows is, well, reality. Thanks to the 24/7 celebrity news cycle, we often know what happens to reality stars during filming, making it old news by the time the episode actually airs. For example, tabloids has pretty extensively covered Jenelle Evans‘ drug arrest long before we got to see the incident take place on Teen Mom 2. And the Italy season of Jersey Shore is proving to be more of the same: 
This just in, just in time for 
Four years after he posted a teary plea to “leave Britney alone,” YouTube celebrity Chris Crocker has turned on the performer who was responsible for his fame. What’s ironic is that his original video — where he writhed around on a bed, mascara tears streaming down his cheeks — went after the people who criticized Spears’ lifeless performance at the 2007 VMAs; | You are subscribed to email updates from Crushable To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now. | Email delivery powered by Google |
