Nothing makes me happier than seeing hot men projected as sexy pieces of meat.

So I’m pretty thrilled with this new Nelly ad for Sean John.

“To me, Nelly is the quintessential definition of the Sean John man,” says Diddy. “And let’s be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign.”

Yes indeed.

Thank you, Diddy.

But next time let’s do this shot without the underwear, k? You can just have someone draw your logo onto his wee-wee with marker. And by “someone” I of course mean “me.”

The teaser trailer for Oliver Stone’s W. — a biopic of George W. Bush — was released today, and it looks to be quite a doozy.

What are your thoughts?

Who wants to see a piece of what Penn Badgley’s getting?

The very first (of hopefully many!) Blake Lively nip-slips can be found here.

It’s NSFW. Because it’s a boobie. But you knew that.

I love stories like this!

Colbie Caillat is one of my favorite new artists, and it turns out she was once rejected from American Idol. In fact, she didn’t even get in front of the main judges — she was rejected by the pre-screeners.

A couple years (and 40 million MySpace plays) later she had a record deal and a booming career as a singer/songwriter.

“It happened so fast,” she says. “I was just writing songs and putting them up on MySpace, and then I got a record deal. Then it was like, ‘Whoa, you’re going on tour with the Goo Goo Dolls this summer.’ So it was brand-new, but now it’s been a year for me, so it’s kind of like I’m getting used to it all.”

Today, she’s touring with John Mayer.

You dodged a bullet with that AmIdol thing, Colbie. They would have had you in a contract to sing pop trash for the rest of your life! Everything happens for a reason, kiddos.

Do they ever do “Where Are They Now?” episodes of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition? I often wonder what happens to those people after they suddenly go from lower-middle class to gigantic, fancy home ownership. Some of them, it turns out, have the good sense to put their entire home up as collateral for a $450,000 loan and then default on it.

More than 1,800 people showed up to help ABC’s “Extreme Makeover” team demolish a family’s decrepit home and replace it with a sparkling, four-bedroom mini-mansion in 2005.

Three years later, the reality TV show’s most ambitious project at the time has become the latest victim of the foreclosure crisis.

After the Harper family used the two-story home as collateral for a $450,000 loan, it’s set to go to auction on the steps of the Clayton County Courthouse Aug. 5. The couple did not return phone calls Monday, but told WSB-TV they received the loan for a construction business that failed.

“It’s aggravating. It just makes you mad. You do that much work, and they just squander it,” Lake City Mayor Willie Oswalt, who helped vault a massive beam into place in the Harper’s living room, told a local paper.

It’s so sad that you can’t build good sense with a hammer and nails.

I’m going to leave it as an exercise for the reader to determine where the commas go in the above header.

Ryan Seacrest got bit by a shark while swimming in the ocean this weekend. “He took a bite, and he left,” said Ryan on his radio show this morning. He said he later found one of the shark’s teeth in him. “It was like finding a splinter!”

You know this is all a total cover-up. Ryan’s sex party got a little out-of-hand Saturday night, and he needed to explain away the strange bite marks. And he didn’t find a shark tooth inside him so much as a giant penis, probably.
