vanessa minnillo like you've never seen her

everyone knows three things about vanessa minillo:
-she was a former miss usa (or something)
-she hosted TRL on MTV
-none of that mattered until she started dating nick lachey. and even then, she's still sorta irrelevant

so between being a former beauty queen, an mtv vj, and dating a jessica simpson's ex, it's no surprise that she hob knobs with other celebrities, right?

it is surprising however when a picture like this (left) surfaces. according to the ny post, it might cost her any prospective jobs.

something inside me says i should feel sorry for vanessa. but then i come to my senses and say "there should be consequences for hanging out with lindsay lohan."

geek chic: lego zipdrive

tivo alert! britney's mom to appear on the view

according to the view's website, britney's mom, lynn spears, is scheduled to appear on the show this wednesday*. i'll be sure to tune in. if anything just to see if she talks about poor little britney's nasty hair extentions. i mean, look at them!

*update: they've since taken this info off the website

dina lohan's coattail riding has paid off--sorta.

according to the ny post, dina lohan has finally managed to get her own tv show. after ten years of whoring out lindsay to the media and hollywood, she's on her way to whoring out her other two children, ali and cody.

her new show will apparently be a reality show that will air on e!, and is tentatively titled "mom-ager". although dina and her reps refused to reply to e-mails and phone calls.

there are so many things wrong with this that i don't even know where to begin. the lohans should just move to dubai or something. that way they can continue living their extravagant lifestyle, and i'll never have to hear about it. the end.

photo-op of the day: salma's ever-growing body parts

i'm not exactly sure how long it's been since salma hayek got pregnant or when she is due, but after looking at this picture, i can't help but wonder one thing......her boobies look rather large. as does her stomach. but which has gotten bigger? her breasteses or her baby tummy? i can't tell. please, help me out.

pirates continues to dominate the box office

after two weeks of being in release, pirates of the caribbean: at world's end managed to keep the top spot at the box office. despite heavy advertising, critical praise, and word of mouth buzz, the judd apatow comedy knocked up came in at number two (although it did make a respectable $29 million). i'm happy that mr. brooks only made 10 million. not because i'm still mad at kevin costner for waterworld, but because whoever cast dane cook in that movie should be fired. and lastly, thank goodness shia lebeouf still has a movie in the top 10. here's the rest of the top 10:

1. pirates of the caribbean: at world's end- $43.2M

2. knocked up- $29.3M

3. shrek the third- $26.7M

4. mr. brooks- $10M

5. spider-man 3- $7.5M

6. waitress $2.02M

7. gracie $1.35M

8. bug- $1.22M

9. 28 weeks later- $1.2M

10. disturbia- $1.13M

the day is finally here...

...paris hilton has finally gone to jail.

let's look at this mugshot though. i thought she was going to have her extentions taken out (cause she had to, not cause she had a choice)? and all this make up. i was really hoping for an au naturel mug shot.

all of that aside, paris hilton finally surrendered herself to authorities. that is of course after an afternoon of partying at the mtv movie awards. too bad people were making numerous jokes at her expense and cheering on the fact that she would be going to jail in a matter of hours.

let's hope this is the beginning of 23 paris hilton-free days.

the pen is mightier than the sword

well, what do you do when you've had a life as interesting as rosie o'donnell's? the way i see it, one (or more) of three things happens:
-you have an episode of e! true hollywood story done on your life
-you have a lifetime original movie made about your life
-you write a memoir about your life

rosie chose option number three. according to the associated press:

Rosie O'Donnell has had "an interesting year," she confided Sunday, and a lot of it will be in her new book, "Celebrity Detox," coming this fall.
Speaking at a breakfast gathering at BookExpo America, the publishing industry's annual national convention, O'Donnell said her long-delayed memoir on fame will not be "vindictive" or "mean-spirited," but will offer a candid look at her very public life, including her brief, battling stint on "The View."

i'm sure elisabeth hasselbeck and barbara walters are shaking with fear over what rosie is going to say in her book. i'm not big on celebrity tell-alls, but i might have to sneak a peek of this one at barnes and noble.
