postcards from the edge

wouldn’t it be fitting (and hysterical!) if katie had to secretly pop some pills to cope with post-partum depression. i think it would be a fitting form of poetic justice.

i wish i had come up with this myself, but i can’t take the credit. in a way, it sort of remind me of something from found magazine.

for more - and there are some goodies! - check out the devishly clever content over at postsecret (via cityrag).

gwen ready to rock billboard

it’s official. gwen will perform at the billboard awards next week.

on top of that, gwen is up for three awards - hot 100 song of the year and digital song of the year for “hollaback girl,” plus new artist of the year. isn’t it a bit silly when someone who has been around for years, only with a band, goes solo and is considered new?

anyway, i am psyched to see what she’ll sing. she could decide to promote new single “luxurious,” please a wider audience by doing “hollaback girl,” maybe do a medley, or, if we’re lucky, debut a new track. granted, this is far-fetched, but i suppose i can keep my fingers crossed. tune in to fox at 8pm eastern on dec 6 to see for yourself.

speaking of gwen, just 18 days till her harajuku lovers tour comes to town, and i’ll be seeing her live. jealous? you should be.

nicole + keith : totally not together

you’re not fooling us, kids! did you know that they still maintain that they are just friends? they were spotted all around nashville last week, including at the starbucks right down the street from my apartment. grrr!

it’s interesting how various celebrity couples try to deny that they are an item. i mean, everyone knows that angelina is doing brad up the butt with her big black strap-on. even jennifer aniston has come to terms with that. after being photographed together a thousand times a day (with the kids in tow, no less!), why can’t they just admit it?

with nicole and keith, my guess is that it’s all nicole doing. she doesn’t want to follow in the disastrous footsteps of her cold mountain co-star renee zellweger. also, being a little secretive is probably another way for her to prove how much classier she is than her showy ex-husband.

going to the chapel

myfairbrady.jpgeveryone has their guilty pleasures. most of mine involve vh1’s celebreality. i know it isn’t pretty, but at least i can admit i have a problem.

as you can probably imagine, i was happy to learn that my fair brady is coming back for a second season. i know that adrianne curry is an attention-starved d-lister - but for some reason (and i can’t explain why), i think she is awesome. i can’t honestly say the same for christopher knight. in fact, he kinda reminds me of my biological father. but it makes for deliciously horrible television, and apparently season two is going to include the nuptials of these two reality tv whores. hurrah!

gobble gobble

happy thanksgiving, everyone! i hope you can enjoy our nation’s most gluttonous holiday, even if you’re forced to spend it with an annoying relative.

but let’s not dwell on that. just pour yourself a glass of wine and flip on the television. if you’re not into football, at least mariah and toni braxton are performing at the annual detroit lions thanksgiving day game.

as for tomorrow, if you’re certifiably insane, have fun shopping. i sure as hell will not be at the mall. also, if you are planning on visiting wal-mart while gift-hunting in the next month, make sure you check out this documentary first. i watched the high cost of low price last weekend, and it might just be the most frightening film i’ve ever seen. seriously, it’s much worse than you think.

of course, i could never finish on such a sour note. here’s something to cheer you up - a very funny turkey day e-card spoof of “i will survive.”

desperate times, desperate measures

i came across this hysterical tidbit on the onion’s website: marilyn manson now going door-to-door trying to shock people. isn’t it sad what he’s been reduced to? the picture definitely makes it ten times better.

also, chances are you already know which word i’d choose to describe the president (via a socialite’s life). here’s a hint: it’s not nice!

yawn

sorry for the lack of posts in the past week or so. actually, there hasn’t been much of interest - at least in my opinion.

a few recent items that are allegedly newsworthy:

> a month after tabloids report the break-up, jessica simpson and nick lachey officially separate. what a shocker.

> britney’s baby, sean preston, debuts in people magazine. boring!

> madonna’s confessions on a dance floor enters the u.s. album chart at no. 1. guess what? even american life did that. ha!

assume the position


one lucky sharp shooter took matthew mcconaughey from behind! how many people can say that?

actually, i’m quite sure that people magazine’s current “sexiest man alive” was just showing off. not that i’m complaining.

you can see more candids of matt over at socialite’s life. just make sure you clean up after yourself.

kylie bounces back

kylieminogue.jpgmore good news for kylie, and even better news for her aussie fans. her promoter just announced that she intends to return to the live stage at the end of next year to perform the australian leg of her postponed showgirl tour. the performances were originally scheduled for may of this year.

i wish i could be there to witness kylie’s triumphant return. watching the concert on dvd later just isn’t the same! my only hope - and i know this will not happen - is that kylie decides to bring the show to the u.s.
