Hey Don’t Forget About the CNN Headline Tee Contest

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Um, so I don’t know what’s up with you guys on this one. Normally when I run a contest my inbox gets FLOODED with responses. This time, I’ve gotten hardly any. Do you guys not want the prize? Do you not know who Kendra Wilkinson is? In case it’s the latter, I’ve made a slight change to the contest entry requirements. To win, send an email to evilbeet@gmail.com finishing the following sentence:

Hugh Hefner’s girlfriend checks CNN.com on a regular basis because ___________________ .

Headline should be “CNN Contest.”

I’ll pick four winners to receive a CNN Headline tee. You get to pick the size, color and headline of your T-shirt. For some ideas, click here.

I’m extending the submission deadline to midnight PST tonight.

Guns ‘N’ Roses Go After the One Dude Who Still Cares About Them

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

So, the Feds arrested a 27-year-old blogger this morning on suspicion of violating federal copyright laws. Kevin Cogill was taken into custody after being accused of posting nine unreleased tracks off the new Guns ‘N’ Roses album, Chinese Democracy, on his website. The songs were later removed.

Um, does anyone else think it’s sort of ironic that an album titled Chinese Democracy has prompted federal agents to raid a journalist’s house in the wee hours of the morning and take him into custody?

I’m just saying.

Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Vanessa Minnillo: Love It or Leave It

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Both these looks are worthy of discussion.

At the launch of Tide and Downy Total Care in NYC. Yeah. They walked the red carpet for a detergent. Either Tide has an awesome PR firm or these girls are really desperate for invites.

Haley Joel Osment Heads to Broadway

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

First off, I would like to formally apologize to you guys for this being the slowest news day in the history of the world. Were I famous, I would photograph my vagina and post it here just to inject a little fun into today. Since Leo is more famous than I am, perhaps I could photograph his wee-wee and post it here. His wee-wee is funny because it has these huge long black hairs growing out from the tip of it. They crack me up. I’m like “My dog has crazy pubes!!”

Anyway.

Haley Joel Osment is the latest in a string of former film stars to join the cast of a Broadway production.

CASTING is complete for the starry Broadway revival of “American Buffalo.”
Joining John Leguizamo and Cedric the Entertainer in David Mamet’s crackling drama will be sweet-faced Haley Joel Osment of “I see dead people” fame.

The actor, who was nominated for an Oscar in 1999 for his performance in “Sixth Sense,” will play Bob, a con man in training who becomes involved in an elaborate scheme to steal a rare coin collection.

Osment, who also starred in the films “Artificial Intelligence” and “Home of the Giants,” is making his theatrical debut in “American Buffalo,” which opens at the Belasco Nov. 17.

He’s taking a leave of absence from New York University, where he’s double-majoring in fine arts and Middle Eastern studies.

“I initially considered trying to do my academic classes during the day and the play at night, but it’s probably not a good idea to mix those things at the same time,” he told The Post. “It’s my first time out, so I’m sure I’ll be putting in a lot more hours in the theater than I would on a film set.”

From what I hear, the character Haley’s playing is a little rough around the edges — he’ll be doing a great deal of hardcore cussing. Should be fun.

But, frankly, I’m far more interested in what HJO plans to do with a double-major in fine arts and Middle Eastern studies. Face-painting terrorists? I’m open to your thoughts.

Um. Matthew McConaughey’s Mom Reveals That His Dad Died Having Sex

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Kay McConaughey has just released a new book titled I Amaze Myself!

And, uh, apparently she talks about how her husband died having sex with her.

“On Monday mornings, he and I often said goodbye by making love,” Kay says exclusively in the latest issue of Us Weekly. “But one day, all of a sudden, it just happened.

“I knew that something was wrong, because I didn’t hear anything from him. Just nothing,” she says. “But it was just the best way to go!”

And when her man couldn’t be revived, she made sure he was taken from the house in the buff.

“I was just so proud to show off my big old Jim McConaughey — and his gift,” she says.

Matthew, I’m sorry for all the times I’ve made fun of you for being weird. You actually turned out just fine considering the circumstances.

Now You, Too, Can Dress Like Michael Phelps’ Mom

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Chico’s has unveiled the “Debbie Phelps Collection,” which is apparently the Chico’s clothing Ms. Phelps packed to watch her hottie son break all sorts of world records in Beijing.

I wonder if they donated all that clothing to her for the publicity.

Check out the collection here.

Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton Call off Their Engagement

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton really need to just stop dating each other once and for all.

The couple dated for five years in the early ’90s, then split up, then started dating again in 2005 (almost immediately after she broke off her engagement to Nicklas Söderblom), and got engaged in March 2006. And now they’re splitting up again. Nicollette’s rep confirms the news.

If these two get back together again in a couple of years, I’m gonna be way annoyed. This is in stark contrast to Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling, who can split up and get back together as frequently as they wish, as long as they eventually die peacefully in one another’s arms after retelling each other the story of their eternal love. Sigh.
