Wow, some people are completely pissed off about this new DirecTV ad featuring David Spade and the late Chris Farley.  Farley’s role is spliced together from his movie Tommy Boy and David Spade appears to be having a conversation with him.

We’ve had everyone from Fred Astaire to Nat King Cole peddling soda — and don’t believe for a second that we won’t see Michael Jackson doing the same in the next few years — so I don’t understand all the controversy.  If the estate is being paid, why shouldn’t dead dudes sell stuff?  Tacky or okay?  (Certainly not funny.)

There have been rumors for a few weeks, but now it seems like there may actually be some truth to those whispers.  Could Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner be dating?  They were seen together at a hockey game at the Staples Center on Sunday — way to keep it under wraps, guys.

Swift is 19 and Lautner is 17 and they’ve probably been dating for a few weeks — so a relationship that’s both young and young.  And for the record, I’m totally behind the Taylor/Taylor duo … haven’t seen anything that cute since, well, Paris & Paris.

Lindsay Lohan and Paula Abdul were canoodling last night at Richard Branson’s Rock the Kasbah party — oh who even cares where they were? — and seemed quite chatty.  Can you even imagine what a conversation between these two would sound like?

LL:  Hi, Paula.  I’m a really big fan.  I hope to attain your level of tolerance celebrity one day.

PA:  Linds!  Rock on!  You just *unintelligible slur* need to believe in yourself.  Don’t ever forget that!

LL:  I know.  I’m working too hard.  I’m a workaholic and now that I’m a designer, I just find the work so exhausting.  No rest is really making my *sniff* allergies act up.

PA:  Well … uh … you just gotta believe in *unintelligible slur* who you are and who you are is beautiful.  Don’t ever forget that!

Khloe and Lamar Get Inked!

“I think the best tattoo experiences are the spontaneous ones, because that way you are not only left with the tattoo, but an amazing memory to go along with it!… I just knew I wanted a tattoo for Lamar in the web of my hand, and then once we got to the shop we decided on getting each other’s initials.  I got “LO” in cursive on my right hand and he got “KO” on both hands.”

– Khloe Kardashian explains her new ink in a blog post to her fans.

Yeah. No way either one of them will ever regret that. Never.

Raising Malawi Academy For Girls

Madonna and her daughter Lourdes were n Malawi today for the groundbreaking ceremony at the site where Madonna is building a school she’s raised over fifteen million dollars for. The scene looked very hopeful and exciting for all involved, with the exception of Lourdes, who looked bored and maybe even a little embarrassed, hope that the girl might actually just be a normal teenager with an abnormal mother. I mean, doesn’t Lola look like her mom is dragging her along to a luncheon at the country club when she’d rather be at the mall with her girlfriends? There’s something refreshing about that teenage angst, I’ll tell ya.
