Can’t get enough Jessie? Well, here he is on The Gregory Mantell Show, an internet based series about bodybuilding, bodybuilders, and the people who love them. This clip is remarkable less for the silly things that Jessie says (we’re used to that by now  but they’re still hilarious), but more for the way the …

RIP LeRoi I’ve been a pretty big slacker lately with the celebrity obits on this site, but when it came to the passing of Dave Matthews Band saxophonist LeRoi Moore, I just had to write something. As many of my friends know, I’m an unabashed DMB fan  the owner of several bootlegs, t-shirts, and …
The Olympic Games may be in full swing these days, but they’re not the only place to find intense sparring, emotional intrigue, and slack-jawed googly eyes. No, for all those fine elements (particularly the latter), we have The Hills, which made its triumphant, if arbitrary return for Season Four last night on MTV. I say …

With today being the seven year anniversary of me moving to Los Angeles, I decided to browse nostalgically through my old iPhoto library, and much to my surprise, I came across a series of photos that I never published back at TVgasm.

There wasn’t anything particularly stunning about this latest installment, but it was fun and funny all the same  culminating in two laugh-out-loud segments focusing on first April’s “pet” poodle Polly and then on …

Time to blatantly shill: as I mentioned earlier this month, MTV interviewed me for their upcoming launch special for The Hills: Season 4. That program, titled Drama in The Hills: US Weekly Presents the Top 10 Most Memorable Moments Ever, will be premiering Saturday afternoon at 1 PM EST. I’m sure I will only be …
Back in May, I posted about my semi-awkward encounter with Lenny Kravitz in Prague, and I’m happy to report that the commercial around which the whole debacle centered has finally made it to air. Above, check out the new spot for Kohl’s, and know that in one of those windows behind Lenny’s head, my mom …

Recently, my friend IndianJones and I dropped by local watering hole Cabo Cantina for a few beers and encountered that most glorious of Los Angeles events: the child star sighting! I quickly whipped out my camera and very subtly snapped a few shots. Only one turned out well though. So who was the mystery man? …

Because Mad Men is such a wonderful, all-encompassing experience, I’m never one to pass up an article about any of its cast members, even if one of those cast members plays a loathsome snake in the Sterling Cooper agency. And so it is on that note that I bring you this Associated Press interview with …
