Thank you to all who have submitted applications to be our weekend writer here on EB. Many of them have been awesome. You guys rock so hard. I’ve gotten quite a few emails with questions, and they’re all pretty much the same questions. So here are the answers:

1) You must be at least 18 years old for this position. This is not because I don’t think people younger than that can be fantastic and competent writers — it’s because every now and then there are some naked photos and sex tapes involved in this job, and I just think it’s safer if everyone I’m paying is an adult.

2) I don’t care where you live. You don’t have to be in LA, Seattle or even the United States. However, if you live overseas, you must be able to accept payment through PayPal, because I’m not mailing your check to Australia. (No offense to Australia.)

3) I’m not going to tell you what kinds of writing samples to submit. Consider what the job is and use your best judgment.

The rest of the qualifications and submission instructions are here. The application deadline is Friday, September 26.

Vanessa Hudgens shows off a not-so-tween sexuality at the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood party last night.

Damn, this girl is ready to break out of those Disney chains. And I, for one, am ready to exploit and profit from it.

You guys, wanna know what’s kind of sad?

I don’t recognize half of the people who attended this event. Like I’m vaguely aware than Dylan and Cole Sprouse are big names, but I refuse to run their photos on here, because, clothed or not, it just feels kind of dirty. Like, I just want to give them some Legos and firetrucks and send them off to play in the basement while the grown-ups pose for photos. The weirdest part? They’re 16 years old! That’s older than Miley Cyrus! And I’m sitting here waiting impatiently for the Miley Cyrus nip slip, hoping this chick’ll get her drivers license soon so she can get a DUI, and at the same time I look at these little Sprouse boys and think “They are much too young for all this attention!” Double standards, indeed.

What was the point of this?

Oh, yeah.

Make a sex tape already, Vanessa. For chrissake, you’re 19 already. You’re not getting any younger. Do you want a career or what, kid?

Audrina Patridge’s new costar shows off a new ‘do at the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood party last night.

What do we think?

Does it make her look better? Worse? About the same?

Just when I thought that nothing could get me to tune into Project Runway again, I’ve been proven wrong. It’s gonna take more than a tranny, though (coughTyracough) — this sort of disaster calls for Lindsay Lohan!

La Lohan is scheduled to be on-hand as the guest judge in the season premiere of the new Project Runway, which will take place on Lifetime network instead of Bravo. The show is set to premiere in late January of 2009. Hopefully Lindsay won’t be in jail for hitting the paparazzi by that time!

From a recent interview about Tony Romo: “To be my man, you have to put up with a lot. I toot under the sheets, I spend a lot of money and I can belch the ABC’s.”

Hey, at least she’s honest.

Heh, one girl sent me an entry to the Life of Tim contest detailing how she’d accidentally sharted in bed with a one night stand. I almost peed myself laughing so hard. Seriously these entries are gold. I can’t wait to print my faves.

[W]hen megan fox was 19, she posed half-naked for a magazine photo shoot and boasted in the accompanying interview that she possessed “the libido of a 15-year-old boy.” (She also described a tattoo she’d gotten of her boyfriend’s name as being “next to my pie”—not exactly the kind of thing you say if you’re hoping to keep a low profile.) At that time, Fox was filming the third season of ABC’s Hope & Faith, a family-friendly sitcom starring Kelly Ripa that’s best summed up by its eventual fate—syndication on the WE network—and she was fed up with playing the coquettish yet chaste teen. The show was repressing her, she says, tamping down her sexuality: “Sex is something that everyone does, so why can’t I talk about it?” Sexual double standards make Fox angry, and when conversation turns to tabloid-flamed scandals surrounding other teen stars who’ve been photographed in various stages of nudity and seminudity, she goes off: “With any of the Miley Cyrus shit, or any of that Vanessa Hudgens shit—I would never issue an apology for my life and for who I am. It’s like, Oh, I’m sorry I took a naked, private picture that someone is an asshole and sold for money. I’m sorry if someone else is a dick. No. You shouldn’t have to apologize. Someone betrayed Vanessa, but no one’s angry at that person. She had to apologize. I hate Disney for making her do that. Fuck Disney.”

Can I get that on the record?

“Yeah. Fuck Disney.”

There goes your career.

“Yeah, that was probably a bad move—they own everything. But it’s not right. They take these little girls, and they put them through entertainment school and teach them to sing and dance, and make them wear belly shirts, but they won’t allow them to be their own people. It makes me sick.”

It seems like the closest you’ve come to a controversy like that are those paparazzi photos of you reaching under the table to grope Brian at a restaurant.

“I don’t understand why they’re so scandalous. When they first came out, it was like, Megan Fox was giving Brian a blow job in pub—I mean, uh—a hand job in public. First: Who gives hand jobs? Who’s given a hand job since seventh grade? Not me. And who does it at a café on a public street? I touch him all the time. It’s just like, if you have a girlfriend, you grab her butt or whatever. That’s all it was, but it became a big deal. I don’t know why. For me, touching Brian’s dick for two seconds—that’s not part of our sex life. That’s me playing around; you know, you just cup it a little. For a few seconds.”

Just a tidbit of this brilliant interview GQ has with Megan Fox this month. A must-read!
