Fashion Victim of the Week

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

Dude, I’d be depressed if I was wearing an orange jumper too. Can we please talk about those shoes? Mandy, you are a young woman. I know that you are really mature for your age but that doesn’t mean that you can wear granny shoes. I know it is cold in Sundance but the “Frigid Bitch” look is so 2002.

MLK Party? Not The Best Idea Kids…

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

This sounds like the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard of. Some kids at a college in Texas decided that it would be cool to get a bunch of KFC, some 40s, a chick dressed as Aunt Jemima, and wear some “gang clothes” to celebrate Martin Luther King Day.

They stupidly put the photos up on Facebook and they obviously ended up on The Smoking Gun.

Bad idea kids. This day and age you need to be just a little politically correct. Also, what have we learned from famous people like Paris Hilton…when you do something stupid don’t put it on your MySpace or Facebook page.

Wanna see more pictures of the party. Click Here.

Tyra Banks Discusses Her Weight Gain

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

Supermodel-turned-reality-show-host-turned-talk-show-queen Tyra Banks spoke with People magazine about the weight she’s put on since she retired from modeling in 2005. When a tabloid posted these pics of Tyra looking a little hefty in a swimsuit with some disparaging headlines, Tyra’s feelings were understandably hurt. “I get so much mail from young girls who say, ‘I look up to you, you’re not as skinny as everyone else, I think you’re beautiful,’ ” she says. “So when they say that my body is ‘ugly’ and ‘disgusting,’ what does that make those girls feel like?”

Continues Tyra, “I’ve made millions of dollars with the body I have, so where’s the pain in that? If I was in pain, I would have dieted. The pain is not there – the pain is someone printing a picture of me and saying those (horrible) things.”

Tyra’s long been a proponent of a realistic body image for young women, and she always encourages the girls on Top Model to eat healthy and take care of themselves. The competition used to regularly include a token “fat model,” but producers must have realized the hopelessness of that cause, because the more recent cycles have been all thin girls. Last year, Tyra announced that she would no longer allow photo shoots of herself to be digitally retouched before being used in magazine, again emphasizing that this sends a message promoting unrealistic beauty to women. Because, you know, every woman can look like Tyra Banks if she just exercises and eats right.

But is there an additional motive to Tyra’s weight gain? “(TV execs) think it’s better when I’m at 155 lbs. – at 145, they feel I’m not as relatable,” she says. Perhaps Tyra’s trying to discard her supermodel image and adopt a look that Midwestern housewives will be more comfortable taking advice from.

Aw, Cameron’s Happy!

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

Check out these adorable pics of Cameron Diaz — still in Hawaii — with buddy/love interest(?) pro surfer Kelly Slater. It’s good to see her happy again. But this isn’t going to stop Us Magazine from releasing new deets about her Golden Globes war with Justin:

“Cameron was across the room giving them the evil eye,” says a party source. “It was like high school.”

Another witness says that pal Drew Barrymore even attempted to distract Diaz from her ex’s hookup-in-progress with Biel, “grabbing Cameron to dance, trying to make her have fun.”

What Diaz did next, barely five days after announcing an amicable split with Timberlake, her boyfriend of nearly four years, shocked the whole room.

“All of a sudden she just lost it,” says one of the many witnesses to the tantrum of Diaz. “She came up and started yelling at Jessica.”

According to a witness, Biel, 24, stepped away, leaving Diaz, 34, to unleash her fury on Timberlake, 25, who moved with her into a hallway.

Says a guest, “First she started saying all these nasty things to him about Jessica like, ‘What is she? Your new f—king girlfriend? Look at her!’ And then she insinuated things about other guys that Jessica has been with.”

The tirade went on for 45 minutes, until Barrymore finally intervened. Says a source, “Drew had to grab Cameron and say, ‘It’s enough.’”

I can’t say I blame her. Jessica Biel’s kind of a dirty slut. But I do wish I had her ass. Whatever, it doesn’t sound like Justin hit that anyway. Good lookin’ out, JT!

Anna Heche: Still Sane and Well-Adjusted

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

At least there’s one constant in Anne Heche’s life: the crazy. The actress, who dated Ellen Degeneres during her “yeah I’m totally into women since I can’t land an A-list man” phase, has left her husband Coley Laffoon, a camera man. The two met, ironically, while working on a documentary about Ellen’s return to stand-up comedy. They have one son together, which they opted to name Homer — you know, so that he’ll get beat up a lot.

Why the split? Apparently Anne has fallen for her Men in Trees co-star, James Tupper, who has — of course — a wife and child. There should really be an “Anne Heche Ruined My Life” support group. A twelve-step program even. And Anne Heche should attend meetings regularly.

Why Did Ilan Quit His Job?

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

Apparently Top Chef’s Ilan has recently quit his job at Spanish restaurant Casa Mono. Hmm. Is this because he won?? Oh man, please say he did. Because if Marcel won, I’m going to have to, I don’t know, throw a bottle at him or something.

Ian Benardo…Reality Show Whore

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

Ok so I can’t deal with this when people end up on multiple reality shows. Do these people have an agent? There is something seriously wrong with the world when we have reality show rejects that are reoccurring characters.

First he goes on “So You Think You Can Dance” and throws his mink in the corner. Then he goes on “American Idol” and wears some ratty chinchilla scarf.

Some people were not loved enough as children. Here is Ian making a fool of himself on American Idol:

Here here is the mess of crazy on “So You Think You Can Dance.”:

He might not be good at anything but damn does he make for some good TV.

Update: Of course he has a MySpace page. Click here at your own risk.
