John Galliano rounded up the best of the best to walk Dior's 60th anniversary couture show at Versailles on Monday.

And oh yeah, the clothes were fucking amazing, too.

closet space

At times like this, I wish I were Posh.

According to Perez Hilton, Posh is designing a $500,000 closet for her new house in LA. What does that $500,000 buy you?

A leather floor, a chandelier, an Andy Warhol print, and a camera that offers a 360 degree look at her outfit.

It's good to be Posh.

a shocking revelation

Minnesota Nice Midwest just pointed out that Suri Cruise has essentially the same haircut that Posh, Tom and Katie share.

Does their hair need to be cut that way so the tinfoil helmets fit right?

scientologists unite

Is it just me, or are they all starting to look alike?

just what the world needs

Here comes baby #5! (Allegedly)

The NY Post and Star are reporting that Shar Jackson is pregnant with K-Fed's baby again!
And K-Fed doesn't know.
Oh, yeah. Nothing can go wrong with this plan.

I wonder what Britney will have to say about this. Oh, wait. I think this says it all:

Edit: According to Shar's people, she is not pregnant. The panty shot is still valid, though.

Seriously. The woman is wearing a sparkly poop sack. And she still looks fabulous.

Sometimes life just is not fair.

i hope this comes true!

Paris Hilton goes to jail!

After driving on suspended license, Paris has been sentenced to 45 days in jail. (Insert joke about jail actually being The Simple Life here.)

she's back y'all

Well, at least her abs are.

I don't know how she did it (I'm guessing the millions of dollars at her disposal didn't hurt) but Britney is looking fABulous!

tmz

The beauty of Brit is that she never lets us forget her roots (see cowboy boots and Ms. Junior Texas Cheerleader 2001 hot pink belly-baring shirt). We know where you came from Brit-Brit; thanks for bringing us back.

when fashion hurts

I am a firm believer in the power of fashion. Don’t believe me? Watch She’s All That: a simple tight red dress (and contacts) transforms Rachel Lee Cook from a nerd to someone Freddie Prinze Jr. could actually love.

However, there are some fashions that are not meant to be: hot pants, dickies, most anything donned by Lil’ Kim.

This list of fashion faux pas has been generally benign until now.

The “Stop Snitching” fashion line is designed to scare would-be witnesses from coming forward. The “Stop Snitching” movement extends to murder, robbery, and rape.

classical values

Sixty Minutes recently did a story regarding this “movement,” interviewing rapper Cam'ron (artist of such classics as A Pimp's A Pimp and Where The Fuck You At). Cam’ron tells Anderson Cooper that if a serial killer moved in next door to him, he "wouldn't call and tell anybody on him. But I'd probably move… But I'm not gonna call and be like, you know, 'The serial killer's in 4E.'"

This seems counter productive to a safe and healthy society.

3) Equus is a very serious, important, disturbing play; and
4) I'm disgusting, but ...

how come no one told me when the news came out that Daniel Radcliffe would be performing nekkid on stage that he's grown up to be kind of ... erm ... I feel dirty typing this ... hot?

the worst idea ever

Sheryl Crow, in the weeds. An appropriate place to save the world.

Sheryl Crow has an idea of how to save the world. I'm all for saving the world but I can't get on board with this idea:

"I... like the idea of not using paper napkins, which happen to be made from virgin wood and represent the height of wastefulness. I have designed a clothing line that has what's called a "dining sleeve." The sleeve is detachable and can be replaced with another "dining sleeve," after usage. The design will offer the "diner" the convenience of wiping his mouth on his sleeve rather than throwing out yet another barely used paper product. I think this idea could also translate quite well to those suffering with an annoying head cold."

I'm all for the saving the world but I REFUSE to wear a shirt that has a "dining sleeve" stitched on to it. What would that even look like? I would imagine something like this:

Prototype of Dining Sleeve clothing line

While not dating, Ann Coulter and Jimmie "JJ" Walker were each others date for the 5th Annual TV Land Awards. (Insert your own DYNO-MITE joke here.)

I am not quite sure what to say. I think this picture says it all.

(Although didn't Ms. Coulter accuse the 9/11 widows of being publicity mongers? Pot, meet Kettle.)

Hugh Hefner has announced a triple-whammy of Anna Nicole Smith tributes: in the May issue of Playboy, on Playboy TV, and at playboy.com.

I love it! A return to Anna Nicole's glory days! Anna Nicole, '93 Playmate of the Year! This is the way she ought to be remembered.

fergalicious

By now, most of us know that Fergie peed her pants onstage:

I was confused as to why and how this could happen (I think we all were). Graciously, Fergie has decided to share her mindset after the unfortunate (and odd) situation to Playboy (!):

"Embarrassment. Everyone told me not to talk about it, but I wanted to call people and tell them what had happened. I was advised not to, and I didn't for a while. Now I'm just honest about it. It's embarrassing, but you just have to let it go at some point."

She must mean "let it go" figuratively because she literally "let it go" on stage (rim shot, please!).

PS: If I was a famous singer/transsexual dating the guy from "Las Vegas" the last thing I would want to do is talk to Playboy about peeing myself.

(via Perez Hilton; post here)

would she go down on you in a theater?

Alanis. Covering. My Humps.

Who knew that slowed down, "My Humps" could actually be haunting and melancholy? (The words are still ridiculous.)

And Alanis in ghetto fabulous gear? Actually pretty fabulous.

Please, someone tell me what this guy has got that made Nicole Richie, Mandy Moore, and now Jessica Stam fall for him. Cuz it sure as hell ain't his face.

missing the old britney

A friend recently reminded me of the 2001 MTV VMAs, in which Britney performed "I'm a Slave 4 U" with the lion and snake. And watching it again ... what happened? Remember when Britney was the standard by which to measure all fabulous, extravagant, professional performers? Look at her strutting around and carrying the whole damn show by herself. You can't take your eyes off her. We don't have anyone who pushes the envelope like that anymore, especially now that Xtina is all '40s glam. Probably no one can ever live up to the Britney of '01, not even Britney herself.

(thx, liza)

we get it, already

I understand that the Jolie-Pitts are beautiful/stunning/breathtaking/magical not only in their looks but in their philanthropic ways. Really. I understand it. I get it.

It is because I have an innate understanding of the beauty that is the Jolie-Pitts that I feel entitled to comment on this picture:

www.people.com

There are so many questions including (but not limited to): Why does a 5 year old have emo-style platinum blond highlights? How does a 5 year old sit still long enough for highlights to process? How does a 5 year old know what highlights are? Did Maddox tell his mom that he wants Elmo but, due to inability pronounce the letter 'L', ended up with the above?

ridiculous controversy

Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2007 Advertisement, courtesy msnbc.com

Stefano and Domenico are pulling this ad from campaigns worldwide, after insistence from both the Spanish and the Italian governments. While I generally believe that images like this contribute to a variety of negative consequences for women, I just don't understand: why this ad? why now? This is not the first or the last time that a strange, sexualized, objectifying image will be used in fashion. I think D&G are, for some reason, the scapegoats for the entire fashion industry.

rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens...

....These are a few of my favorite things (insert Julie Andrews making dresses out of curtains here).

I was up late one night, watching Cheaters (thanks Joey Greco, for teaching me to love again) and eating chips and cheese, when an infomerical for Sheer Cover came on. Sheer Cover is a mineral-based makeup from Leeza Gibbons.

She has been called a social entrepreneur, but if you ask Leeza Gibbons what she does, she'll simply answer "I'm a storyteller."

I watched, in rapt attention, as Melissa Gilbert (from Little House on The Prairie. Michael Landon was her TV father; everything she says must be true!) showed me how Sheer Cover covered her fine lines and wrinkles.

(Side note: How did the business relationship between Leeza Gibbons and Melissa Gilbert come to fruition?)

After watching for about an hour, I had to order it. It came about 2 weeks later and I must say I am impressed! It does cover pores and pimples without making you look like a mannequin. It is also very light and blends well.

Laura Ingalls Wilder, you've done it again!
