Hot on the heels of her success in Transformers, Megan Fox is being pursued to star in the new She-Hulk movie.  A studio source says this:   “She-Hulk comics are popular so it’s only natural that the character makes the transition to the big screen.  The idea is to make She-Hulk sexier but even more savage than the Hulk, which is why Megan is the big favorite for the lead role. She’ll be green of course and will have to hang on to a few more pieces of clothes than the male version when she transforms!”

Oh my God, how much is this movie going to suck?  Who wants to see all the hotness that is Megan Fox turn green and bust out of her clothes?  Sure, Fox unclad sounds appealing at first blush, but she’s going to have huge guns and bulging eyes.

Can we just start taking bids on opening weekend box office receipts?  I’m going with $7M.

I’d like to caption this, “I feel sad that Beet is going to have to pay a week of paid vacation to Wendie because Wendie is an amazing visionary who totally has correctly predicted that Skeletor and I are splitting up in 2009.”

Okay, there haven’t been any official announcements yet, but stay tuned.  God, I hope this doesn’t turn into Pukegate all over again.

Do you ever just avoid something in hopes that it will eventually go away?  I had a friend who did that, and now she’s dead of cancer.  For two days I’ve been ignoring the fact that Mischa Barton is naked on the shudder-worthy cover of May’s Cosmo UK with the headline, “Your Body Rocks,” but this damn story keeps popping up again and again.  Let’s get this over, shall we?  Sidenote:  I just realized that, lately, every time I write about Mischa Barton, I reference cancer.  Coincidence?

The main topic of Mischa’s interview is self acceptance.  “Surely there are more important issues than if someone has cellulite? And I don’t understand the point of people looking for bad things. Why bother? I know it’s human nature to want to pick on other people, but I find it a little shallow,” Barton says.  Obviously, what she doesn’t understand is that, yes,  there are much more important issues than if someone has cellulite.  Unless it’s on her, in which case it is the most important thing that could ever be reported.

And though she’s quick to call her critics shallow, she’s just as quick to let everyone know that she’s gone from a size twelve to a six. Whatever, Mischa.  No one cares that you “feel confident now,” and that you are “happy and healthy.”  You still aren’t talented and isn’t that a prerequisite for being an actress?

If there is any relief in this maelstrom of Mischa it is this:  in being naked on the cover, she has spared us from yet another clusterfuck wardrobe selection.

Good morning, everyone!  I hope you are waking and baking this morning.  I’m so glad that I work in the written word and don’t do vlogging, because I seriously would be cracking up right now and wouldn’t be able to get through this piece.  Oh, and I would have to put makeup on.  Needless to say, I’ve never smoked a joint in my life.  Do they even call them joints anymore?  Roaches?  Spliffs?  Blunts?  Are those all the same thing or are there different varieties?  I need you to educate me.  You can even give me a pot quiz, afterward.  Get it?  Pot Quiz???  Shit, I’m starting to sound stoned.

Rapper Snoop Dogg, idiot extraordinaire, has posted NSFW video on his Twitter live stream of himself (allegedly!) smoking pot.  But don’t worry-he’s got a license to do so.  Which leads me to ponder:  Is no fashion sense a medical condition that necessitates daily use of medical marijuana?

OMG you guys today was AMAZING!!! It was all about my girl BRITNEY SPEARS!!! You guys know how much I love Britney and how excited I was for this show, and it totally lived up to all my expectations. I was so very fortunate to have my BFF Alex come into town to go to the show with me, and I really can’t think of anyone I would have had more fun with. We started the day by hitting up H&M to get some awesome (and cheap!) Britney outfits. There’s a huge H&M in University Village by UW, and I swear we’d walked through almost all of it without seeing anything that was right for the show. We were so disappointed. But THEN we saw these little tutu skirts and colored jackets, and we were like, “Bingo.” We picked up little tube tops to go underneath the jackets, and we were good to go. Perfect Britney Spears outfits, and matchy without being totally matched. I swung by the wig shop near Pike Place that some of you recommended, and they had a perfect little pink wig (although I did have to cut it into a pseudo-bob). We were golden. We went home and got started on getting dressed and makeup. Of course this took waaaay longer than we expected, and by the time we hit the road it was much later than I’d hoped. Plus, traffic down to Tacoma was terrible — I think it took us an hour and a half to go 30 miles. We didn’t even get to the Tacoma Dome until 6 pm. The VIP Experience stuff was at 4:15, and I was bummed that we’d missed it, until we picked up our tickets at Will Call and found out that we had some other type of VIP tickets. It wasn’t the one with the tour anyway, so it was just as well that we’d been super late.

Alex’s fake eyelashes were falling off, and, in our rush, we’d forgotten to pack the eyelash glue. We wandered around looking for other girls wearing fake eyelashes and asked them if they’d brought glue, but no one had. At last, we spotted a drag queen performing with the Movin 92.5 van. “She will have eyelash glue!” I announced. We went up and asked her after her set, and she was like, “Yes of COURSE I do!” and she ran into the van and let us borrow it. She turned out to be Gaysha Starr, an icon on the Seattle drag scene. Here’s a hot pic of her performing before the show:

We decided to grab dinner at the restaurant at the Tacoma Dome, and I was really surprised after an hour of people-watching how few people dressed up. I guess I’m not in LA anymore. Most people were just wearing jeans and a T-shirt. I’m so used to Los Angeles, where you basically wear a costume just to go to a show. I was sporting my pink wig, and everyone complimented it, and some girls actually asked to take a photo with me. The wig was a TOTAL hit. Thanks to the commenter who suggested it. Great idea.

We got to our seats just as the Pussy Cat Dolls were going on — of course, the show started an hour later than scheduled. I have to say, the theater was packed, waaay more full than a theater usually is for an opening act. Nicole Scherzinger & Co put on a good show. I don’t think I fully understood that the Pussy Cat Dolls are basically Nicole and four backup dancers. I mean, no one else really sings at all. I always figured they split up the solos. Not true. It’s all just Nicole. I’m not even really sure why those other girls were there. I kind of felt bad for them.

PCD did a really short set, probably only 4 or 5 songs. I wonder if that’s because they started so late or if that’s how it always is. I figured that after their set we’d have at least an hour or so before Britney, but they got her on pretty quick, like only 20 minutes later. And Britney. Was. Amazing. I mean, the show was just incredible. The audience was on their feet the entire time. The whole stadium was standing for the whole show. The choreography and the effects were stellar, and I have to say that Britney was damn sexy. Her butt cheeks were hanging out pretty much the entire time (but never her pussy!) and she totally rocked all those outfits. And she works hard. That is a tough show to do night after night. I’m very impressed with her. Her dancers and acrobats are equally amazing. Everyone on the stage was just working their asses off. I even felt sometimes like the dancers were working harder than Britney, but of course all eyes were on Brit. We definitely felt like we got our money’s worth. I was just up on my feet dancing and shouting the whole time. I’m sooo not going to have a voice tomorrow.

I also have to say that the videos they showed up on the big screen were amazing, soooo sexy and fun and really brilliantly edited. Whoever did those should get a raise. Right before the encore they did a fantastic montage of all the greatest moments from Britney’s music videos. They even showed the scene in “Toxic” where Britney’s making out with my gorgeous sexy friend, Matt Felker (who refuses to be anything more than friends with me, because he is infuriating like that). I texted him: “Do you know you’re in the Britney show?” He said: “Yes, I’ve heard. Blog about how she should PAY ME for it.” So there ya go, Matt. Blogged. Sex now?

I took a bunch of video for you guys to watch, for those of you who won’t get a chance to see the actual show. The zoom feature on my new camera works wonders. Thanks to everyone on Twitter who helped me pick it out. I don’t know if Britney’s camp will demand they be taken down, so watch ‘em while you can in case I get a complaint and Veoh shuts down my entire account with no warning, like YouTube did last year. And when you hear someone in the background screaming like a banshee and discussing the asses of the back-up dancers, that’s me. When you hear someone singing really off-key, that’s not me. It’s the girl behind me. Promise. The videos are after the jump, along with more photos.

Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar is expecting a baby Buffy this fall with husband, Freddie Prinze, Jr.

In addition to the obvious, the couple have been busy over the past few months.  Gellar is set to executive produce and star in the HBO pilot, The Wonderful Maladys.  Her husband just shot a pilot for ABC titled No Heroics.

Let’s hope one of their shows gets picked up.  Kids are expensive and they totally expect to eat two or three times a day!
