Pam Anderson arrived in high-style this past weekend at the low-key, so totally not a celebrity-sighting destination, Millions of Milkshakes.

Anderson’s milkshake concoction — a vegan-friendly vanilla shake — follows the ranks of Jon Gosselin, a few Kardashians, Paris Hilton and other down-home celebrities that just enjoy being shameless hams chilling out in Hollywood W, without subjecting themselves to the throngs of adoring fans.

Kenny Chesney is running for “least appealing schlep in Hollywood” and I think — unsurprisingly — he’s in the lead today.

Remember when he and Renee Zellweger married abruptly in 2005? I mean, to me, that came way out of the blue. Total shocker. I’d been a long-time fan of Renee’s, but couldn’t give a crap less about Kenny Chesney or whatever “country-western” singing star it was that I used to confuse Chesney with anyway.  I thought it was one of those crazy, impetuous things that just sort of happened (hello, Mrs. Britney Alexander) ’cause it’s Hollywood. Shit like this tends to go down every few seconds there.

The couple was said to meet during a Concert for Hope benefit, where Renee answered telephones and Chesney performed. The two were married a few months later — first marriages for both — in the Virgin Islands and the marriage was annulled mere months later. Renee cited “fraud” as the basis for the couple’s annulment.

However, Chesney, who’s only spoken briefly about his 4-month (or so) marriage to Zellweger, spoke to Oprah this past weekend about the specifics of the marriage and subsequent annulment:

“Country superstar Kenny Chesney was on Oprah Friday, and as only she can do, Oprah got him to talk about his short-lived marriage to Renee Zellweger.

The pair met in January 2005, married in May 2005 and had the marriage annulled that September, citing “fraud.”

After Kenny talked about how busy he is, Oprah asked if the lack of time was what happened to his relationship with Renee.

He said, “that and the fact that I panicked.” Then he started talking about “the box” in which he put everything he values, like his friends and musical success, and how he worked to “protect it… I protected that box.” So, Oprah asked, where was his marriage to Renee?

“Well, it was out.. out of the box!”, he exclaimed with a maniacal laugh. But he did call Renee a “sweet soul.”

Chesney then said he still hoped to be married, but “felt that the idea of marriage made me lose my identity… I just don’t know that I’ve found anybody bigger than that.”

Yyyeah, Kenny, I don’t think you’re going to find anyone much bigger than Renee.

Or your ego.

“No wife is blind enough to miss that much infidelity. Elin had 2 b a willing participant on the ride 4 whatever reason. kids/lifestyle ;^)”

- Jim Carrey chimes in on the Tiger scandal via Twitter.

So let me get this straight: Because of the sheer number of women that he slept with, there’s no way that an athlete who travels for much of the year and has plenty of money to make his problems disappear could have managed to hide his affairs from his wife? I gotta go ahead and say that that’s a pretty dick sentiment, Jim Carrey.

People have been throwing out the idea that Elin and Tiger had some sort of “arrangement” where he could sleep around since the scandal broke, but I’m not sure I’ve ever bought that. On the other hand, it would add a pretty twisted element to this whole scandal if it turned out that Elin didn’t care about the affairs and was acting mad to play the part. That might explain why she’s been so forgiving of her husband. But realistically? That woman was probably just as shocked by his manipulation as the rest of us.

Here’s a list of people I don’t want at my funeral: Judy Haim, Corey Feldman, Todd Bridges, Baywatch‘s Nicole Eggert, Teen Witch star Robyn Lively and former Playmate Julie McCullough. We clear? OK, that being said, that’s the exact list of people who gathered at a Marina Del Ray restaurant to pay their respects to their recently deceased friend, Corey Haim.

Another attendee, Kristy Swanson, spoke to People and said the following of the memorial dinner:

“It was like a reunion. Robyn brought tons of old pictures – lots of people with crazy hair and funny clothes, and people gave Judy gifts. I had a picture of me with Corey on the set of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and I gave that to her. There were no speeches, just lots of picture taking, talking and sharing pictures of our kids.”

Well, that’s nice. But wait a minute– does anyone else find it odd that Feldman & Co. skipped his Canadian memorial service so it could be private and family-oriented, and then they have a dinner which they report the details of to the press? I have a hard time believing that someone like Corey Haim had a single friend in the world (one that didn’t enable him, that is), let alone that these people aren’t milking his death for any shred of relevancy that they can dig up.

Dixie Carter passed away yesterday in Los Angeles at the age of 70. Dixie, who was best known for her role as the strong, smart and sassy Julia Sugarbaker on Designing Women, was survived by her husband and two daughters.

The scene above from Designing Women, which is arguably the best moment from the entire series, is the quintessential example of what a fierce role model Dixie’s most famous character was. While Dixie was rather conservative in her private life, the character of Julia Sugarbaker was a huge influence on me (and many women I know) when I was growing up. She was truly, with the exception of maybe Roseanne and Murphy Brown, one of the only women I saw making intelligent commentary on TV when I was a kid and because of that I’ve always been quite fond of her.

You’ll be missed, Dixie.

Ever since that horribly creepy Tiger Woods Nike ad came out last week, the ‘nets have been flooded with spoofs, knock-offs and parodies. Needless to say, nothing will every quite top the unintentional hilarity of the original version (maybe “hilarity” is the wrong word, as it mostly elicits nervous laughter, but you know…) but this FunnyOrDie vid actually made me chuckle. I won’t give away the punchline, but trust me when I say that what “Tiger” says he’s learned from this whole scandal is funny ’cause it’s true.

Also, “What up daddy zombie voice?” is totally going to be my new outgoing message on my voicemail.
