I promise you, I’m not working on some Twitter theme today.  It’s just working out that way-everything I want to talk about somehow leads back to that useless social network.

In the past few weeks there have been a couple sightings of Miley Cyrus having lunch with her ex, boy bander Nick Jonas.  Could this white-hot yet chaste love affair be back on again?  According to Miley, no.  And I know I’m repeating myself here, but she has documented it all on Twitter.

Listen, I don’t know who Miley is boning and I don’t really care.  I’m much more concerned about the fact that I was in Baby Gap this weekend and really enjoying a song they were piping into the store-so much so that I made a mental note of the lyrics so I could Google it when I got home to see whose song it was (and you know, let my husband know so he could do whatever it is that he does to make it magically appear in my iPod).  And it was a Miley Cyrus song!  Terror!  Horror!  Herpes of the brain!

And can we take some bets on the fact that there is no way that this is the last Miley has to say about this “stupidddd rumor.”

whats “the rumor” everyones tweeting me about?

regarding “rumor” i like to keep my private life as private as possible. justin and nick are two very amazing people and they both mean so

much to me. it makes me sad to think that people out there arent friends with THEIR ex bf, because let me tell u it IS possible.

i heard once “u can love more than one in your life but there is only one love of your life” i love both of them so much and they are both

very dear to my heart. justin is an amazing person! he can always make me laugh and has a heart of gold. and nick is so lovely. he reaches

out to so many people with his music, not only with his talent but with his heart. our love for music is something that keeps our friendship

together and I KNOW NO MATTER he will be my friend forver. so there thats all i will say about this stupidddd rumor

It’s bad enough that you can’t bring your own bottled water on a flight-unless you’re willing to pay four dollars for the much safer Poland Springs crap that is for sale within the terminal, of course.  But now, apparently you can’t bring your own body art either.

Joel Madden was forced to cover up his tattoos before boarding a British Airways flight this weekend.  He gave in to the man and put on a long sleeve shirt and of course documented the whole thing on Twitter.

Was just told by a british air person I can’t get on the plane till I cover my tatts. Should I fight the power?

Isn’t it comforting to know that airline security is focusing on real threats such as exposed body art?  I know I’ll sleep better tonight knowing that British Airways is vigilant in their concern with the personal safety of all the passengers who could have been harmed by viewing Joel Madden’s tats.

MK and her lovah, artist Nate Lowman, took their bikes for a ride around the East Village this weekend.

Mary-Kate’s bike has a basket. I wonder what’s inside. Probably Ashley.

Despite getting terrible reviews, Beyonce’s new flick, Obsessed, was easily the top dog at the box office this weekend, bringing in an impressive $28.5. The film co-stars Idris Elba and Ali Larter.

I’m not a huge Beyonce fan, but I’ll probably wind up renting this movie at some point just because I’m in love with Ali Larter.

Zac Efron scooted into second place with 17 Again, which brought in $11.7M in its second weekend. It looks like Fighting and The Soloist will take third and fourth places, respectively.

Studios are heading into summer on a box-office tear, with receipts running at a record pace. Revenues for the year are at $3.06 billion, up 17.4% over last year. Factoring in higher ticket prices, movie attendance is up 15.7 percent.

“We have never been in this strong a position heading into the summer season, ever,” said Paul Dergarabedian, president of Media By Numbers.

Well, at least this shitty economy is good for something. Nobody has the cash to travel or shop, so we’re all going to the movies. Although for what it costs to take a family of four to the movies these days, you can probably get a round-trip plane ticket to Hollywood on Priceline.

I leave you this weekend with a little happy news. While the unholy union that took place this weekend might have led you to worry about the state of the world and wonder if it’s not on an express elevator headed straight for the shit pit, this news should give you hope for the future.

In general elections Saturday, Icelandic voters gave the victory to the country’s leftist parties. This is important because it means that Johanna Sigurdardottir (who had been serving as interim Prime Minister) has now been elected to that office– which makes her the world’s first openly gay Prime Minister. It’s refreshing to see that Iceland’s voters concentrated on the politics of the situation, not on what kind of porn the candidates prefer to watch.

Sigurdardottir won’t have any time to celebrate the historic nature of her victory. Iceland was hit very hard by the global economic meltdown and she’s got her work cut out for her. Nevertheless, it is a historic moment, that deserves recognition.

Congrats Iceland! You’ve totally redeemed yourselves from that whole Bjork thing.

Jessica Alba got pulled over for a minor traffic ticket this weekend, and it was caught on tape, but definitely the best part of this vid is listening to the paparazzi be assholes to each other. If you’ve never had the opportunity to watch a bunch of paparazzi in a group, it’s an experience not to be missed. They’re always like this. Seriously if you make a trip to LA, don’t bother actually eating at the Ivy (it’s overpriced and the food sucks), just stand outside and listen to the paparazzi talk shit to each other. It’s hilarious.
