It appears that Stacy Ferguson has undergone some ill-advised surgeries of the plastic variety. It looks as though she’s gotten a new nose and had some of the fat taken out of her lady lumps and injected into her face since she first appeared on Kids Incorporated alongside another one of our favorites.

I never understood the whole “Fergie’s hot” thing. I think she’s a fine singer who’s in a popular band and that they collectively do an above-average job of producing radio hits, but something about her look is just terribly off to me. I don’t think it’s “meth face”, although I’m sure her history with the drug didn’t help.

Check out the gallery below to see how Fergie morphed from a naturally pretty teenager to somewhat of a swampthing and let me know what work you think she had done in the comments.

Awww, snap. This is what I’m talking about right here. This is the kinda thing that makes me bleed for this shit (gossip, that is.)

CBS announced yesterday that Lindsay Lohan is scheduled to present the Late Show with David Letterman’s signature Top Ten list this Thursday. Lindz will be reading the list via satellite in Los Angeles, and my guess is that it’s going to be pretty funny. Lindsay’s no Paris Hilton (who coincidentally is Dave’s guest on the show that night,) meaning that this bitch has a sense of humor about herself. I expect that Lindsay will make some of the best jokes at her expense that we’ve heard yet.

Dave’s been making sport of Lindsay quite a bit recently, but she’s actually an old friend of the show. You may recall reading that her first ever television appearance was a spot on his show during one of his annual Trick-or-Treaters sketches. Yup, David Letterman is at least partially responsible for creating the Lindsay Lohan we all know today. We live in a crazy-ass world.

The practically perfect Gwyneth Paltrow has done yet another completely amazing thing– earned her first gold record. The news broke last night that the actress’ cover of Cee-Lo’s “Forget You” from her guest-appearance on Glee has sold over 535,000 copies. Must have been her surprise performance at Sunday’s Grammy’s with Cee-Lo that really pushed it over the top.

Gwyneth’s last movie, Country Strong, only reached the number six spot on the box office charts the weekend of it’s wide release, but featured Gwyneth singing throughout the whole thing. And it had Tim McGraw in it.

What am I getting at? Gwyneth is an okay singer, but she didn’t produce a real gold record. She covered one of the most popular songs of the summer on one of the most popular shows on television. Pardon my language, but no fucking shit she has a gold record.

Kevin Federline was photographed taking his gang of children to the park yesterday for a quick game of ball and the pictures are kind of cute but mostly hilarious. Seeing Kevin with all four of his kids is quite a sight, especially since the Kevin we first met was the kind of guy you’d be afraid to leave with so much as a pot of boiling water.

It’s nice to see that his children with Shar Jackson and his sons with Britney Spears all seem to get along, though. I bet that Britney’s boys are psyched when they get to spend time with their dad and their slightly older siblings.

The National Enquirer is reporting that O.J. Simpson, who’s currently serving time in prison for armed robbery, was recently beaten pretty badly by several other inmates. The former football star was attacked in the prison yard by a bunch of skinheads, and apparently was in such bad shape after the beating that he’s now afraid to leave his cell.

From The National Enquirer:

The battle erupted at Nevada’s Lovelock Correctional Center, where Simpson is serving at least nine years for his role in an armed confrontation with sports memorabilia dealers in Las Vegas in September 2007.

Unknown to the former NFL star, The Juice has been a marked man behind bars ever since white supremacists overheard him brag about his sexual conquests of beautiful white women.

“Unfortunately for O.J., a group of young skinhead punks were within earshot – and they were enraged,” Simpson’s former business partner Bruce Fromong told The ENQUIRER in an exclusive interview.

“They waited for a day when he would be in the exercise yard without his usual posse of black prisoners.

“O.J. was completely unprotected when one of the toughest of the skinheads – who’s in his mid-20s – jumped him.”

If you consider the source, this story could be nothing more than a dramatic piece of fan fiction, but TNE says the story is real and has been covered up by the prison staff out of embarrassment. O.J. is no longer staying in the prison’s infirmary, but he is afraid to interact with other inmates.

Of course my initial instinct after reading this story is to feel slightly bad for O.J. Getting beaten by a pack of skinheads sounds like the worst thing ever, but then I remembered that I’m pretty sure O.J. murdered the mother of his children and her boyfriend.

Do you think there’s any truth to these reports, and if so, how do you feel about it?

… Or that’s the feeling you get looking at the cover art for her new Black Friday mix tape, anyway.

As you can see above, Kim is sitting in the middle of a Kill Bill style bloodbath, with what appears to be the disemboweled carcass of Nicki Minaj behind her. And of course, the name Black Friday is a play on Nicki’s #1 album, Pink Friday.

Violence in rap isn’t something that we as a society take all that seriously any more, but 15-20 years ago, the rap community was considered a dangerous place. Kim, who was especially close to the late Biggie Smalls, should know that. Why she would choose to fight back at Nicki with images of death is beyond me. It’s probably poor judgment for her to take a swing at Nicki in the first place, but illustrating her dead is just stupid.

On the other hand, Kim’s an old rapper. She needs to grab our attention somehow, and the last time she was popular, this kind of behavior was considered the norm. Beside, it’s not like Nicki can’t stand up for herself.

What do you think of this cover? Does it offend you? Do you understand what Kim’s trying to do? Let me know what you think in the comments and by voting in the poll.
