I Love the Kentucky Derby

I love the Kentucky Derby--not because of the horse racing. I could give a crap about horse racing-- although I do love to hear Nancy O'Dell talk about how she chooses what horse to bet on based on how nice its ass is. Equestrian junk-in-the-trunk aside, I love the Kentucky derby because it makes obscenely rich (and moderately famous) people put ridiculous things on their heads and stroll around for photo ops because, well, that's just what one does on Derby Day. It's the rich and famous version of peer pressure at its worst, and I love every minute of it. Take a stroll through the photo gallery. You'll find yourself asking questions like: Did a can of silly string explode on Lynn Whitfield's head? Does Bobby Flay ever NOT look like a total prick? If I jump on Brooke Shields' head, will I get an extra life? In case you were wondering, a tiny, screaming, weeping, Creole lunatic riding a horse called "Mine That Bird" won the race today. God, I love the derby. [gallery] />I love the Kentucky Derby--not because of the horse racing.

Joel Madden Goes Blonde

joel madden blonde hair Let me confess right up front that I am a brunette who dyes her hair blonde. Personally, I think that there is something about hot brunettes that makes them so much hotter than hot blondes. But I just can't pull that whole "sultry" thing off, so I dye my hair. Lately, there have been far too many attractive dark- haired celebrities going crazy with the peroxide bottle. The latest casualty? Good Charlotte singer and Nicole Ritchie Baby Bump-maker Joel Madden. This look gets a big thumbs dow...

William Shatner Reacts to the Trailer for the New Star Trek Movie

When Billy Bush from Access Hollywood interviewed William Shatner recently, he had the presence of mind to show him the trailer for the new Star Trek movie, which Shatner had somehow not yet managed to see. For those of you not in the nerd loop, George Takei (who played Sulu in the original series) and Shatner have had an ongoing feud for the last decade or so. It sounds a lot like a 4th grade schoolyard fight (like most celebrity feuds) with Shatner claiming that Takei is just mean to him all the time and Takei taking pot shots at the Shats and his larger-than-life personality every time he goes on a talk show. Shats is still upset that he didn't get invited to the wedding. I'm upset I still have to wait 5 more days before I can see this movie. /> When Billy Bush from Access Hollywood interviewed William Shatner recently, he had the presence of mind to show him the trailer for the new Star Trek movie, which Shatner had somehow not yet managed to see.

The singer became ill and fainted while on a flight to Greece. After presenting symptoms consistent with H1N1, she has been isol...

Actually, she was in a different country and probably had no idea what was happenin...
