The happy and third-party-friendly couple are about to make news for something other than a videotaped make-out sesh with a sex addict. They finally officially announced Rebecca’s pregnancy, and word is she’s having a girl! Congrats to the family!

jersey-shore-snooki

Jersey Shore is really the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time. Whenever I’m all like, “I wish there were an interesting story to write about today,” the Shore delivers.

Up now: Snooki’s war with Domino’s Pizza. Hey, you guys, remember back in April when those Domino’s employees posted a video of themselves doing gross things to your pizza? (The video’s been removed from YouTube due to a copyright claim by Kristy Hammonds, one of the people doing gross things to the pizza in the video. That is actually fairly brilliant maneuvering. Hat tip, Kristy.) Domino’s is one of several sponsors who pulled their ads from MTV’s Jersey Shore earlier this year as a result of the backlash from the show’s characterization of Italian-Americans. (Other pulled sponsors: American Family Insurance, Dell and UNICO.)

Snooki, who is amazing, had some choice words about that: “Fuck you! If you don’t want to watch, don’t watch. Just shut the hell up! I’m serious … Fuck you!”

Now, from E!:

A rep for Domino’s says his first thought was to decline commenting to avoid giving Snooki extra publicity. But unlike Dell, he went ahead and gave us a lengthy comment anyway…

“Our first response was, ‘What a classy young lady—her parents must be so proud,’” the rep told us today. “There’s no need to get into a war with this young girl, because tick-tock, her fifteen minutes are almost up.”

First off: Ouch, E! Good luck the next time you need a quote from that PR firm.

Second: I hope Snooki is famous forever and ever. Or at least for long enough to be on Celebrity Rehab.

Third: Is Bump-It advertising on Jersey Shore yet? If not, they should be. Like, a lot. I want the show to open with the words “Jersey Shore, brought to you by the good folks at Bump-It.”

Gaboure Sidibe, star of Precious, visits the Duracell Lab in Times Square for a little photo shoot.

I have to say, I finally managed to download a real torrent of this movie (legal note: I’M TOTALLY KIDDING!), and, while I wasn’t like, “OMG this is the greatest film of all time,” I was completely and totally blown away by the caliber of the acting. Everyone was absolutely brilliant, up to and including Mariah Carey. I smell lots and lots of Oscars.

Lindsay Lohan Tweets About Clothing Line

Earlier this week, Lindsay Lohan announced on her Twitter that she’s releasing a full clothing line. Today that was confirmed on WWD that Linds is, in fact, releasing a line that has more than just leggings. Aw, remember when this girl was an actress?

The line is set to include everything from an $18 dollar pair of leggings to a $300 dollar leather jacket and each item purchased comes with the satisfaction of knowing that the woman who approved the design of your clothes is probably spending her cut on blow and vodka. The sketches that I’ve seen actually don’t seem that atrocious (Her leggings give me night terrors.), but we all remember The Ungaro Incident. However, her price points are significantly lowered and there are still tons of women out there that want to dress like this crazy bitch, so it could be a success.

Now do the girl a favor and follow her so she can give you the breaking news!

Jersey Shore Cast

“The governing body wants it to be known that they did not solicit, promote or participate in the filming of this show. The production company that filmed the show did obtain a shoot permit to film in Seaside Heights, but these permits must be issued as it is a first amendment right to film in public places. Furthermore, the Borough does not condone any discriminatory remarks against Italian Americans, domestic violence or the promiscuous and otherwise bad behavior portrayed on the show.”

- John Camera, the administrator of The Borough of Seaside Heights, stepping out to say that Jersey Shore has nothing to do with Jersey Shore.

Keep telling yourself that, buddy.

Brooke Mueller and Charlie Sheen

Another day in the Brooke Mueller and Charlie Sheen saga turns up yet another story and this one does not paint a pretty picture of Brooke at all. Turns out that back in the day (1996), Brooke was somewhat of a party animal and was arrested twice, once for a DUI and a second time for cocaine possession.

From E! Online:

E! News has learned she was arrested on two separate occasions: once for driving under the influence and causing damage to property, and later for possession of cocaine. (Both cases were ultimately dropped.)

The first charges came back in 1996, when a Palm Beach police officer spotted the then 19-year-old Mueller driving erratically. The car, which held three other passengers, rounded a corner and crashed into a road sign, knocking it down but managing to avoid any injuries.

Not to downplay the dangers of drunk driving and drug use, but who cares that when Charlie Sheen’s wife was 19 she did this stuff? Sure, it’s relevant if you consider everything a person’s done in their life when assessing their ability to parent or be a decent person, but if that’s how we’re making judgements, then no one’s going to cut it. No matter what Brooke put up her nose in the mid-90s, attacks on her character take away from the severity of Charlie’s crime. Holding someone at knifepoint can not be explained or excused because the victim is maybe a bad person or has done bad things in their life. If we found out Tiger Woods’ wife had some old DUI charges, would we excuse him having over a dozen mistresses? Probably not so much. Let’s not cloud the facts with irrelevant details, huh?
