pick up the pieces

Let's face it. When it comes to the Celebrity Deathpool, 2009 was a bitch. Most recently, Bea Arthur, David Carradine, Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett. Even this week, Fred Travelena and Karl Malden. But none have made quite the impact with death, than Michael Jackson and Pizza The Hut Himself, Dom Deluise. Luckily they both live on in celluloid and on YouTube.

shoes that look like feet

Vibram Five Fingers believes the typical human foot is an anatomical marvel of evolution with 26 bones, 33 muscles and hundreds of sensory receptors, tendons and ligaments. Like the rest of the body, to keep our feet healthy, they need to be stimulated and exercised. As a recent discoverer of the pleasures of flip-flops (they were banned from my house because only poor people and hippies wore them), I'm 100% down with JJ Casuals.

beat it

Thanks to Entertainment Tonight, specifically Mary Hart and Mark Steines, who are the biggest ambulance chasers in the celebrity news industry to keep us abreast on all the latest Michael Jackson news. And thanks to Ryan for pointing out how classy they are for running this "EXCLUSIVE!" last photo of Michael. His eyeliner looks great! Back to you, Mary.

Ugh. Perez Hilton's kerfluffle with the Black Eyed Peas at the MMA in Toronto, that turned into a slap fight, with name-calling, hair-pulling and girly screaming has now become the trending topic on Twitter. Citing Perez' hate speech to will.I.am in which he said, ""I don't need to respect you, and you're a fag. You're gay, and stop being such a faggot," a spokesperson for the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation says: "These are vulgar antigay slurs that feed a climate of hatred and intolerance toward our community. For someone in our own community to use it to attack another person by saying that it is 'The worst possible thing that thug would ever want to hear,' is incredibly dangerous. It legitimizes use of a slur that is often linked to violence against our community. And it sends a message that it is OK to attempt to dehumanize people by exploiting antigay attitudes."

Don't expect this to be over until the fat blogger whines. And no, I will not post a picture of that Notorious P.I.G.

Paris Hilton travels in style during a visit to Dubai to film a new installment of her reality series, Paris Hilton's Dubai BFF. They'll never get the smell off that camel.

I seriously am having a hard time picking my favorite red carpet moment for Bruno. It's a three-way tie between Steers & Queers, Muppet Genitalia and the fashion ensemble that includes a cropped jacket, low riding clam diggers and a high-riding thong.

no happy ending

Last season's American Idol runner-up David Archuleta, of the strong Mormon values and the stage father from hell, has one more reason to be ashamed of his daddy. James Jeffrey Archuleta was charged with soliciting a prostitute. The senior Archuleta got caught up in a police raid on a massage parlor in Midvale, Utah.  He was cited with a Class B misdemeanor, soliciting prostitution.  At a subsequent court hearing, Archuleta pled “no contest” and paid a fine of $582.
