I know, you guys, I’m really excited about this too.

After that glorious appearance on the Home Shopping Network to sell some clothes from her new fashion line, she’s been receiving a ton of job offers.  According to The National Enquirer

“She’s already been presented with a reality show concept and a sitcom script with her playing a wacky grandma,” said a source close to Liza. “Her handlers are comparing it the recent resurgence of Betty White’s career. It’s the last thing Liza or her people expected, but they’re not complaining. They’re busy fielding offers.”

Oh, please let Liza follow in the footsteps of Betty White.  I would love nothing more than for her to host Saturday Night Live. She’d forget lines all over the place and just improv the whole thing because she’d be running on natural hilarity and a handful of painkillers.  And we all know it’s just a matter of time before she makes an appearance on Glee.  Let’s get this show on the road, Liza!

On a more personal note, I found it kind of shocking how much Liza reminds me of my grandmother in that HSN video. Seriously, exchange her outfit for a muumuu, dye her hair some ridiculous shade of burgundy, then give her a beer and toss her on the front porch of a house in a meth ghetto in Tennessee, and that is my grandmother.  Crazy.

Although the Twilight cast has copped to enjoying her, Miley Cyrus is once again mouthing off about how much she can’t stand the vampire saga. Miley was quoted as saying, “I’d rather keep the dead and revolting things like vampires and werewolves out of my life,” and while I don’t believe that’s totally true (I mean, have you seen her brother?), I agree that Twilight is completely unappealing.

So who do you think is better (or worse)? Miley or Twilight?

My fellow children of the 90s, gather ’round for the greatest comeback of our lifetime. Or something. What I’m trying to say is is that Ace of Base has put out a new single, and while it certainly is no “The Sign” or even “All That She Wants”, I’ll take it. It’s been so long since I’ve heard anything from these crazy Sweedish kids that I’d take a 30 second clip of them vomiting into each other’s mouths over the silence I’ve had to endure.

“All For You” admittedly kind of blows, but I could see myself not hating it if I was a little drunk and it came on at the gay bar or whatever. That’s more than I can say about most people.

Pink is definitely something else. She was strapped into some kind of harness-thing at her show yesterday in Germany, and somehow it wasn’t rigged properly, coming undone at the worst moment. The end result? Pink busting her ass — on stage — uttering the word “fuck” in a plethora of ways, and managing to walk away (OK, she was carried) still looking (and sounding) like the bad-ass that she so obviously is.

But I loved it. It was great, Pink. The song was a great song to wipe out to and the swearing made it even more authentic, but your backup dancers’ costumes have to go, girl. It made me think “carny freak,” and that’s definitely not an image you want associated with your name. Nothing says “wimpy and not-at-all tough” than striped carny attire and weak chins.

But yeah, best wishes for swift recoveries!

“Do I want to be a father? Yes, but I think I have a few more years. That said, I don’t think I need to have children to play a father in the movies. This feeling is in me, I understand it completely.”

Leonardo DiCaprio on procreating with current lady-love Bar Refaeli.

… I wouldn’t need too much convincing either, dude.

That’s pretty bad.  I mean, it might not mean much coming from me, as I check my Twitter intermittently and only use it to stalk John Cusack, but come on, LeAnn.  A week?

Last week, LeAnn told the public that she was taking a break from Twitter, because she couldn’t hack the scrutiny that a homewrecking celebrity with a Twitter account is sometimes subjected to:

“taking a break from twitter for a while…It’s unhealthy for me and my family to have to read negative comments from people who’s [sic] opinions have no bearing on my life.”

But though she wants to be emotionally healthy and spiritually rich, she’s back at the keyboard again, assailing her followers with affection for those who admire her:

“Hi twitter land! Miss u all and thought I’d just say hello! I have so many darling fans and want you all to know how much u r appreciated…Hugs to all! Can’t stay away for too long :)”

Yeah. I was totally heartbroken … for that week … that I couldn’t be subjected to LeAnn fighting with her followers over kissing co-cheater Eddie Cibrian in public. I just knew there was something missing from my life, though I wasn’t sure what it was at the time.

All is right with the world today.
