Sweet Minty Jesus.

How awesome is that picture juxtaposed with Miley’s inspirational quote?

Miley’s reputed main squeeze, Justin Gaston, recently did a racy shoot with VMan Magazine. Good thing Justin and Miley are both *ahem* chaste and uh…regular church goers. Otherwise, I could see how Billy Ray might consider revoking his apparent sanctioning of this relationship. Any guy willing to get greased up, semi nude, and crotch- grabby probably shouldn’t be hanging out with someones hormonally charged rebellious teenage daughter.

For more pics of Justin sporting tight pants, mysterious bulges, and questionable hair see below.

While the rest of you are tuning into the Oscars to see who made the best/worst dressed lists I’ll be hunched in front of my tv with snacks and a warm towel waiting for Hugh Jackman to fulfill his promise.

Hugh is hosting Sunday’s Oscar Ceremonies and he told AP Press that he plans to go as God made him – naked and smiling.

“I haven’t told anyone this, but we are going to do most of it naked and we’re going to sing through the whole show,” the affable actor joked during an interview backstage at the Kodak Theatre.

But Hugh was quick to assure the interviewer that he wouldn’t just let it all hang out.

“There will be a strategic leaf placed here or there,” he said. “We don’t want to be distasteful or anything. This is a raw night. This is the Oscars. Raw emotion, that’s the quality we’re going for.”

Come on, Hugh! A quick glimpse of Wolverine’s twig ‘n’ berries would be GREAT for ratings. Just make sure you neaten that area up first, you’re a wee bit hairier above the waist then I generally like ‘em so I can only imagine the forest that treasure trail leads to.

Kate Walsh and Balthazar Getty, neither of whom have had much luck with marriage lately, cuddle up at the Oliver Peoples Hollywood luncheon yesterday in LA.

But my favorite thing about this photo?

The little scrunched-up bulges in Balthazar’s pants.

What did Wendie call that again?

Oh, yes. An ass twat.

Awww, quality time, 2009-style.

Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson both gabbed away on their cell phones as they went shopping at a jewelry store in LA yesterday. Also present: Samantha Ronson’s dog. Jesus, you have to be spending a lot of money at a jewelry store in LA for them to just let your dog hang out on their fancy carpet

See, this is the problem with handing a young person who’s never had money before a potentially lucrative career — they have no understanding of the fact that the money isn’t guaranteed to keep coming. Fremantle ought to make these kids sign an agreement saying that a portion of their earnings every year goes to paying for a financial adviser, because they don’t really seem to be champs at managing their own cash flow.

Just like Fantasia before him, Ruben Studdard is in a ton of debt, because he hasn’t been paying his taxes.

In fact, Ruben owes $254,119 in state and federal taxes, including a $60,469 lien filed by the IRS on February 4 of this year for 2007 taxes.

Why didn’t you pay your taxes like the rest of us do, Ruben???

Meanwhile, Clay Aiken’s been dropped by his record label, RCA. Clay’s 2008 album, On My Way Here, sold 159,000 copies in the United States. His 2003 debut, Measure of a Man, sold 2.78 million. BIG DROP.

I hope he’s at least been paying his taxes!!!

Hey, guys, in case you haven’t noticed, TMZ ran a photo taken of Rihanna after she got her ass kicked by Chris Brown.

Now the Los Angeles Police Department is investigating the leak of the photo from its files, saying in a statement it “takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence.”

Said Rihanna’s father, Ronald Fenty, when asked about the photo leak: “It’s good and it’s bad to see the picture because there’s other people who were thinking differently, that (Rihanna’s injuries) may not be that bad, just a little spank or a little thing.”

TMZ chief Harvey Levin insists the photo of a bruised Rihanna that his website published last night was “represented” as totally legit when they secured it — that is, it wasn’t stolen from the LAPD. Riiiight, Harvey. I’m so sure you thought that the LAPD was happy to sell you a photo of a domestic violence victim. The mayor probably even offered to autograph it, right?

Oh, and for those of you who think I shouldn’t have run that photo: I don’t know about you guys, but it’s my job to read all the comments posted on this site, on ALL Rihanna/Chris Brown posts, and I’ll tell you that the comments claiming that Rihanna “had it coming” or that Chris Brown was “still their hero” have died WAY DOWN since this photo leaked last night. That’s was the intended result, and I hope this photo helps show the world that the end result of domestic violence is not something to be excused or explained. Well worth any charges of “hypocrisy” in my mind.
