I’m in the office, where the RealNetworks people are kindly giving me new Rhapsody products to replace the Sansa mp3 player that died on my rainy jog last night. Apparently there are more waterproof places to keep your mp3 player than between your breasts. I know this now. But thanks to Jeff on the third floor for my brand new iRiver clix for Rhapsody. See — it pays to Twitter about all life’s little inconveniences. Point is, I can’t exactly rock out to this stuff in my cubicle on full blast the way I want to. I will listen to them more closely tonight and give you my full review.

In an upcoming interview with Page Six magazine, Jamie-Lynn Sigler talks about her ill-advised early marriage, and why she’s glad she never popped out babies. In some ways, it reads like a “Just wait and see how fucked you’re gonna be” to all these young starlets getting knocked up left and right.
“I was told what I needed to be in every given moment – what I should and shouldn’t say. It was such a weird thing when I was 21 or 22 and just getting into the world,” she tells the mag. “I didn’t know who I was. I was living in an idealistic dream world – like, ‘I have a successful show and this handsome man, and I’m 22 and I’m getting married and may have a baby next year!’ But, man, am I glad we didn’t have children.”
Although she’s 27 now, Jamie tells the magazine that she’s “having a second twenties,” because “I think I deserve to form my own life now.”
And as for her rumored romance with Entourage’s Jerry Ferrara? “He is a very special person, and I’ll leave it there.”
You know, in many ways, Jamie-Lynn’s kind of had an similar experience to what Jessica Simpson went through, but has managed to do so in a much more under-the-radar kind of way. It’s interesting, because I have a feeling their stories have a lot of parallels, but public perception of Jamie-Lynn in the aftermath is so different from public perception of Jessica. It’s notable, too, that Jamie-Lynn was in a years-long relationship with Scott Sartiano immediately following her divorce, so it’s not like she’s just been on the singles scene forever.

Per usual, the PETA kids were on hand to protest the Olsen twins’ signing of their new book, Influence, in LA last night.
“The Olsen twins support an industry that forces animals to live in tiny wire cages their entire lives and electrocutes and kills them for vanity,” PETA rep Ashley Byrne said.
In addition to wearing fur and animal skins, says PETA, the twins also use both materials in their fashion line, The Row.
What do you guys think?
Do MK and Ash have a responsibility to go all vegan in their fashion line and in their personal style choices?

This is kind of ridiculous.
First, we hear news that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt will be appearing on HIMYM — they later confirmed that they would be appearing in a dream sequence as themselves. Then, it turns out that Kim Kardashian will be doing a guest spot, too. And now? The newly engaged Kendra Wilkinson is filming for the show today.
Are they really that hard-up for ratings?
And is anyone actually going to watch the show to see all these guest spots? They’ll all be on YouTube anyway.

“I feel like I moved to California, then my mom moved to California, and she did stuff she wouldn’t have done if we’d stayed in Chicago. If I’d never made it in the music business, it never would’ve happened.”
