So the lovely ladies of Whatever Hollywood are at it again, drumming up support for another viral conquest. Their latest goal: getting Jimmy Kimmel to appear on their site. It’s a noble cause, and while I have to admit that I would have aimed a bit higher (cough, Bea Arthur, cough), I can never ignore …

The Most Annoying Song… Ever?
“Krazy” by Pitbull featuring Lil Jon: this might just be the most annoying song you’ll hear all week. It’s been on the radio and in the clubs for the past month or so (at least here in LA), and each time I hear it, I can’t help reflecting on just how supremely irritating it is. …
EXCLUSIVE: Inside the Fox Reality Channel "Really" Awards
I’ve had quite the run of exclusive experiences of late: a meet and greet with Julie Chen, a visit to The Soup, a stroll through the Gossip Girl set, and of course, back to back infiltrations of the Big Brother finale and wrap party. Am I bragging? Indeed. (Somebody’s gotta drum up traffic around here). …

HILLS RECAP: When the Cat's Away, the Mice Will Play (and go on dates with your exes)
After last week’s less than exciting episode, I was thrilled to see The Hills back in fine fettle as the various sidekicks that orbit the Conrad universe manage to crash and burn without the stern presence of their Master. Yes, Lauren was off to Italy for most of this episode, which meant that all her …
ADVENTURES IN MIDDLE EASTERN FOOD: Marouch Edition
A few weeks ago, I headed off to local Middle Eastern restaurant / institution Marouch for the first time to enjoy some hummus, pita, and various other delectable treats from the Fertile Crescent. Joining me in the fun was my old friend and Metromix contributor Katherine Spiers, who for the past two years or so …

SHOCKING NEWS: Clay Aiken Is Gay
This may be a bit of a surprise for most of you, but in the upcoming issue of People Magazine, heretofore hetero icon Clay Aiken reveals that he is, in fact, gay. Take a moment to absorb that. All kidding aside, good for him. But now there are significantly less jokes to make. More information …
Serena van der Woodsen FTW!
This season of Gossip Girl has been getting stronger and stronger, especially now that all awkward attempts at integrating Vitamin Water into the proceedings have been relegated to a mere refrigerator in Vanessa’s stupid gallery café (attendance: zero). Last night’s episode, with its crackling dialogue and deft plotting, proved to be the best so far …
Cloris Leachman FTW!
I kind of fell out of Dancing with the Stars a few seasons ago, but I may just have to start tuning in again after having watched this segment of Cloris Leachman’s performance on the show. In one word: hilarious. Who needs fancy footwork when you’ve got a plunging neckline and a sailor’s mouth? Via …
HILLS RECAP: Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves
After several episodes of increasing tension between Audrina, Lauren, and Lo, The Hills settled back into a casual groove this past week with an installment that was a bit less action-oriented than recent eps. Basically, nothing happened. I mean, nothing. Granted, there were several breezy lunches, which were about as riveting as one would expect. …

SO I THINK I CAN DANCE: Me and Renny Edition
In case you haven’t seen it, last week at the Big Brother wrap party, I was privileged enough to dance with the one and only Renny, an experience I will treasure and love for many years to come. Intern Nick of TVgasm was there to capture it all (it was he who snapped the photos …
