Lately, everything that Rihanna does has one of two effects on me: one, “ugh,” or two, “LOL.” There’s no “oh, that’s respectful,” or “that’s really neat!” There’s not even any kind of “lookin’ good, girl!” It’s either ughs or LOLs with Rihanna, and in a recent interview on Ellen she took things a little more towards the uncomfortable.

On being single: “I’m not necessarily happy being single. It’s not really that cool. It sucks but it is, what it is. Let me say this right, because I don’t want to make it seem like, my work is my everything. I do put a lot into my job. Most of my time if not all of it. It definitely affects my personal life. My personal life is pretty much non-existent. Which is not good, not for the long run. Not for me, not for “Her”(points to in-between her legs) It’s not fun.”

On her taste in men: “I like men that are more aggressive but mysterious but I like a man to be very sure. I like them to be sure of them selves and know that you’re the man. I’m the lady and the only way for us to make this work is for us to play our roles. You know, I can’t really be the man for you. I don’t want to have to be. I’m the man at work all the time.”

Also Twitter: “That’s why I stay on Twitter a lot. So I can conversate with my fans. Because I don’t get any booty calls.”

Does anyone else have That Friend?  You know, the one who’s always all “man, I haven’t had sex in forever.  I need to get laid.  I’m so sexually frustrated.  I have intense anger issues that stem from the lack of someone else’s genitals directly in contact with mine. ” Because I do, and it gets old quick.  And so does Rihanna.

But hey, at least she isn’t a gimmick, right? That would be so awkward.

“I empathize. It’s not easy. It’s the hardest thing in the world. People judge you because divorce is seen as failure. [Kim] took a risk. No one should be attacking her. Our attention should be focused on things that are truly scandalous.”

- Olivia Wilde, one of the most beautiful ladies in the land, wants you to know that you need to back off poor Kim Kardashian.

While I’ve always had a lot of admiration for Olivia Wilde’s face, I’ve never really cared much for her words or her actions. Despite that, I think she might have a point here. We shouldn’t be attacking Kim, and we definitely should be focused on truly scandalous things. Like her ass. That’s what Olivia Wilde is saying here, right? We need to focus more on Kim Kardashian’s ass.

Just last weekend, I was missing this girl. Do you remember? I was going on and on about how Ke$ha has been flying a little under the radar: no money shots in ages, you guys. But it’s a brand new day, and on this lovely day, we have a brand new Ke$ha song to share with you.

What do you guys think about “U Better Know,” besides how annoying it is that she refused to spell out the word “you”? Remember, she did say that her new album was going to sound different. Do you like it better? With Ke$ha’s music, is there any such thing as “better”?

Some quick backstory: in 1981, screen legend Natalie Wood was on a yacht with her husband, Robert Wagner, and her young costar, Christopher Walken. There was a fourth person aboard, too: Dennis Davern, captain of the Splendour. Everyone was tipsy—Wood and Wagner were reportedly mixing alcohol and Quaaludes—and Wood apparently slipped overboard and drowned (according to most reports, Wood had been trying to “tie down a dinghy”). The Los Angeles Coroner Department ruled her death an accident. She was 43.

But Dennis Davern has stepped forward with “new information,” and in turn, the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department has decided to reopen the 30-year-old investigation, the department announced yesterday.

According to the press conference I just watched, “new information” is “substantial enough” that the Sheriff’s Department wants to “take another look at the case,” “re-interview some people” from the original case, “interview some new people,” and “reevaluate the evidence.”

The homicide detective leading the investigation, Lieutenant John Corina, was visibly reluctant to detail what this “new information” is, but it’s a sure bet that Dennis Davern’s 2009 allegations—that Robert Wagner told him to not look for Wood in the water, and to not give a full account to investigators—has something to do with the investigation’s revival.

Do detectives plan to “re-interview” Captain Dennis Davern?

I don’t know about you guys, but when I heard that Leonardo DiCaprio was slated to play Jay Gatsby in Great Gatsby 2012, I was pretty stoked. I’m not a huge fan of Leonardo, but if I really thought hard about it, there probably wasn’t another snotty, pretentious actor who could really pull Gatsby off. Tobey Maguire cast as Nick Carraway, now, eh. I think they’d have been better advised to cast someone like – ahem – Ryan Gosling in the role of Nick Carraway, but hey. Life isn’t always fair and sometimes you end up with two main actors who think their shit doesn’t stink in a movie based on one of your favorite books.

We’re supposed to, what, feel bad for this asshat? Are we supposed to be all weepy and sentimental because a doofy douchebag couldn’t keep his juvenile penis in his pants and had to squeeze it out over a chick that wasn’t even all that great to begin with? Please. I have absolutely no remorse in thinking this guy is a letch, and any sympathy he might have gotten from me completely went out – wait, no, never mind. This tool doesn’t deserve sympathy from anywhere.

“Marriage is hard”? Is that what I’m getting from his comments? It’s that hard to keep your ass from thrusting in the general direction of even marginally-attractive women? Who the hell wrote this BS, Michael Kelso?
