If you want my body, and you think I'm sexy...
Coincidence?...
...I think not...
Is Dave trying to position himself as the next Rod Stewart?
(Dave, this post was Leah's idea, so get mad at her, not me...I just couldn't resist - the comparison is too good)

Breaking News: Ashlee Simpson, a poseur fakey dumbass
Oops!
When Leah called me with the news this morning it seriously made my day- Ashlee Simpson was totally caught lipsynching last night on Saturday Night Live. Check out the article on NY Daily News:
Bonus insider gossip:
Leah's husband knows someone who works backstage at SNL who said that Ashlee threw a full-on temper tantrum when she stormed off stage- locking herself in her dressing room, throwing shit around- and her mom had to come tell her to pull it together, get back onstage, and act like a professional. Love it. Wonder whose idea it was to blame it on the band?...what a bee-yotch.

Oops!
When Leah called me with the news this morning it seriously made my day- Ashlee Simpson was totally caught lipsynching last night on Saturday Night Live. Check out the article on NY Daily News:
In the key of fakeThe funny thing is that they edited it for the west coast broadcast so that you couldn't tell that she had been lipsynching- which allowed her to blame it on her band, saying that they started playing the wrong song. Puh-leeze. Check out the video of the east coast broadcast to see for yourself. Be sure to note the idiotic leprechaun jig that she breaks into while she's trying to figure out what to do.
Teen songbird Ashlee Simpson had a microphone malfunction on "Saturday Night Live" last night, scurrying off stage when a production glitch caught her lip-synching the wrong tune.
The pop star, younger sister of singer and TV star Jessica Simpson, sounded great belting out "Pieces of Me" in her first segment on the show. It was the same song that she butchered at August's MTV Music Video Awards, drawing withering reviews for a flat, out of key performance.
But the triumphant moment turned into a debacle when she came out to debut the song "Autobiography" for a second set. But whoever was responsible for piping in a studio-engineered rendition for Simpson to mouth screwed up, playing "Pieces" once again.
The raven-haired beauty hopped around briefly, then slinked off the stage as her hapless band half-heartedly faked away. It didn't take long for critics to vent their rage on Ashlee Simpson's official Web site...

From Lucky Magazine interview:
LM: What are your takes on lip-synching?
AS: I'm totally against it and offended by it. I'm going out to let my real talent show, not to just stand there and dance around. Personally, I'd never lip-synch. It's just not me.

Save Mary Kate!
MK, a cutter?
More drama surrounding the emaciated Olsen...Is she a cutter? Is she going to join the ranks of the NYU suicidal? Is that just a clever photoshop job? Only time will tell...I tried hard to figure out what magazine this "star insider" image is from, but I can't find it anywhere, so the veracity of the photo may be questionable...thanks to Whatevs for pointing it out...and for the Heathers/Big Fun reference. Hee!

Lady In Red (I love you)
Sick Sick Sick
So Leah called me today with a theory that the classic prom song, Lady In Red, by Chris De Burgh , is really written by a gay man to his fag hag. Her rationale? That no straight man is going to notice the "highlights in your hair that catch your eyes", no matter how in love he is with you...
I'm not sure if I'm on board with the fag hag theory, but I do have a bone to pick with "Lady in Red". Namely that it is the sickest song ever...The way he gets all whispery and weepy is disgusting.
Like in the part where he goes: "The lady in red is dancing with me...Cheek to cheek"...The way he huskily whispers the "cheek to cheek" makes me want to puke...bleccch.And then at the end where he breaks down and is basically weeping as he chokes out "My lady in red...(I love you)".
But the worst part is how the song has ruined red dresses forever! Now, if a woman is wearing a red dress, she is either secretly hoping or secretly dreading that someone will be thinking of her as the "Lady in Red".
Take the girl in the picture above (found via random googling). She is clearly loving her "Lady in Red" look. So much so, that the caption on the website even reads "Cue for a Chris de Burgh song while Jody dazzles the crowds". Gross. (By the by, if you're bored, check out the website, which is an unintentionally hilarious depiction of some weird dinner/dance).

Extreme PDA
Get a room!
...please!...
What is WRONG with Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias? Why are they constantly in the middle of an Extreme PDA moment? Why can't they have sex inside like normal people? At least most of the time...I don't know, but if I had cameras and reporters stalking my every move, I'd be a bit more discreet. Luckily, no one cares about me so I can be a big old ho-bag where ever I want!

Fat Cats
Magic the Cat...
I've been meaning to post this for a while...There's this children's book called "Magic Thinks Big" about a big, fat, indecisive cat...
...Howard the Cat
The resemblance is striking, is it not?

Magic the Cat...
I've been meaning to post this for a while...There's this children's book called "Magic Thinks Big" about a big, fat, indecisive cat...
In this charming adventure, Cooper takes readers into the mind of a sizable tabby cat. Sitting in a doorway, Magic has a big decision to make: "Should he go in? Or out? Or should he stay right where he is." Not one to waste energy, the cat ponders his options at length and uses his imagination to consider all of the possibilities. Perhaps getting a bit carried away, he muses about catching a salmon and riding on the back of a moose to an island to share it with some friendly bears. However, in the end, it is revealed that Magic has not moved a muscle.Now check out Brian's cat, Howard, who I have been arguing suffers from morbid obesity, tipping the scales at 18.5 pounds.

The resemblance is striking, is it not?

Oh Dear
What the...
Stereogum has posted some really god-awful pics of Britney caught in a quasi-nose pickin' moment with what appears to be zit cream all over her face. Also, her hat says "Carpe Assum, Seize the Ass". It's really awful. So bad that it makes me think the picture must have been doctored. I don't know. You be the judge. I can't look at it anymore. It makes me feel weird.

My Fave Show
Like most unemployed people, I've been watching a lot of TV lately. And what that means right now is I've been watching A LOT of The Surreal Life. Honestly, it is the best show ever. It is sheer genius and I sincerely wish that I could get a job as one of the casting people.
What I have been pondering lately, though, is just which season of the show is my favorite. They all have their strong points. Season 1 has the excitement of watching roly-poly Emanuel "Webster" Lewis break-dancing and the horror of Corey Feldman singing his god-awful single. But Season 2 has Real World Ho-Bag Trishelle unsuccessfully trying to hook up with Vanilla Ice- multiple times- and then being called out on her skankiness by none other than Sally Jesse Raphael and her red glasses! And finally Season 3 has the psychotic chemistry of the most unlikely couple of all time- the barely intelligible Flava Flav and the insane giantess Bridgitte Neilson. I would like to take an informal poll- what do you all think? Which season is the best?
Season 1: Freakish Former Child Stars
Season 2: Drunken Slutsville
Season 3: Crazy Love. Literally.

Umm..as someone who is currently looking for a job, I find this terrifying...(via whatevs)
There is no conclusive data on the spread of blogs to the job market, largely because they are difficult to track, said Michael Gartenberg, a vice president and research director at JupiterResearch in New York who covers blogs. But based on anecdotal information, he said, people are using blogs on both sides of the job search process.Dear God. Can you imagine if any of my potential new employers read this blog for a sense of my "thinking and perspectives"? I think I will stick to the "scripted process" of resumes and interviews, thank you very much! No need for anyone who might be thinking of paying me money to witness my blathering on Paris' slutty narcissism, the brilliance of The Surreal Life, or people who get off on hanging themselves from meathooks...
"It's a trend on the rise right now," Mr. Gartenberg said, "especially for employers, who get a much better sense of a person this way. Résumés and interviews are a very scripted process; read someone's Web log and you get a good sense of that person's thinking and perspectives."

This Ain't No Disco...
I know, I know, I've been totally neglectful of this blog. Britney's had, what may possibly be the trashiest wedding of her lifetime and where was I? But I've had a lot going on, you know? Like major life changes- leaving the job, relocating across the country, etc. So now, after a tearful goodbye to New York, I've arrived safe and sound in LA...my posts may be spotty until I get my computer and wireless card up and running, but they will be coming...
For now I will tell my first LA Story...So it's my first night at my new place. Heather and I had just returned from a night on the town and were getting ready for bed when we hear a woman outside screaming for help. Being the socially conscious citizens that we are, we called 911 and ran outside, along with the other neighbors. Apparantly there has been a rash of break-ins and car thefts recently, so people are on edge. Anyway, what we found was a wasted chick from San Diego who had been "abandoned" by her friends at some bar without her purse or cell phone, had no idea where she was, and decided the best course of action was to plop down on the corner and scream bloody murder. Of course the neighbors were quick to be all "so you two've got this under control, right?"...So we had to let her use our bathroom and talk to the cops and all...in the end her friends came looking for her and were like "we didn't abandon you, you wandered away and we've been looking for you for over an hour". Oh the drama...Welcome Back Reb!!!
