Last night was the Celebrity Apprentice finale. It was absolutely riveting television and I cannot believe I didn’t watch this season. Joan Rivers won $250,000 for her charity, God’s Love We Deliver, but more importantly Joan Rivers’ face is an absolute work of art. That thing doesn’t move.
A couple years ago, Donald weighed in on the whole Lindsay Lohan situation, which oddly enough is relatively unchanged today. The advice he had for Lindsay was, “Find what you love doing (other than drugs and alcohol), work hard, stay focused, get a new set of parents.” She obviously didn’t take his advice but she apparently did send him a case of her Sevin Nyne self-tanner. Donald was distractingly orange last night.
Anyway, The Great Pumpkin is in love with himself and had a three-hour finale that seriously could have been done in sixty minutes. Joan won. Donald’s a tangerine. Oh, and you could see clear through professional poker player and challenger Annie Duke’s dress.
“He was young and talented and hardworking and enthusiastic and over time success made him move into a house that was too big. He surrounded himself with toys he didn’t need [and became] sexually confused and racially divided. He ended up broke and liquidating all of his assets. Michael Jackson is America.”
Comedian Colin Quinn defining the similarities between Michael Jackson and the state of our country in his one-man show “My Two Cents.”
It’s the battle of the Gossip Girl actresses-turned-singers!
Not only is Taylor Momsen’s band, Pretty Reckless, signed to a huge record and management deal, but now we have a second single out of Leighton Meester — kind of. Leighton’s featured on the new Cobra Starship single, “Good Girls Go Bad.” Her bit starts around 1:15. I gotta admit — this is a hot track. A really hot track, and I expect it’ll explode this summer. It’s trending heavily on Twitter right now, and that’s probably just the first sign that we’re gonna be hearing a lot more of this song.
Dude. Blake Lively. WHERE THE HELL IS YOUR SINGLE? Get on top of that, girl. You’re losing ground here.
I realized that when I posted originally about how we’re hiring for our sister site, Zelda Lily, I totally didn’t include a deadline. That was silly of me and definitely just one symptom of me being overworked and needing to bring on more peeps!
The deadline to apply is the end of the day on Wednesday, May 13.
Please check out the original post here for further details and application guidelines.
I’ve had a lot of awesome applications so far, including some fantastic teenage writers applying for the intern positions. I am always so blown away by how intelligent and articulate this readership is. You guys rock.
Congrats to Taylor Momsen, whose rock band, Pretty Reckless, has been signed to Interscope Records and management firm DAS — both HUGE names in the business with long histories of success.
“Rock singer/songwriters like Taylor don’t come around very often. Taylor is an artist with a genuine voice and a unique point of view. DAS is proud to add her to the list of superstar artists that have been managed by our company,” says David Sonenberg, President of DAS Communications.
I have to admit, I watched the video of Taylor’s band performing live last week (you can view them here) and I wasn’t especially blown away. Maybe she does better in the studio? Then again, she’s still really young, so perhaps there’s potential there that just has to be nurtured. Regardless, I’m interested to hear what comes out of her record deal. And good for her for defining her own image and participating in the songwriting process and stepping out as a creative young woman. I’m rooting for ya, Tay-Tay.
Thank you to moms everywhere for pushing us all out of your vaginas. I could do without the guilt trips or off-hand comments on how I look in my bikini, but that whole giving me life, love, and support thing is pretty awesome. I hope my mom enjoys the travel cooler I got her for her car. It refrigerates and heats (swanky!) and should come in really handy on road trips with the grandson or emergency organ transplant deliveries. I’m not really sure what her hobbies are these days.
I also hope she isn’t taking it too hard that I still haven’t confirmed her as a friend on Facebook. I love you mom, but for the good of the entire family, there are some lines that just shouldn’t be crossed.
I would like to tell you that the term “retard” is very offensive to me. I am not offended because I ASSUME it would offend someone who has mental retardation. I am offened on how the word came to...
I am not offended that Rosie has a fear or anxiety of LP. I feel that when someone knows very little about things and or people they tend to be anxious. Think about it if you had never been around someone...
