REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ PHOTOCAP: Caribbean Queens

After months of buildup, the entire cast (minus Ashley, who was too dumb to get her passport in order so she could go on a FREE vacay) headed down to Punta CaƱa to enjoy sun, waves, and plenty of booze. It looked like a rather wonderful time, and for the most part, there seemed to …

VIDEO: Kid Dances to Nicki Minaj in Apple Store

This video is one part mortifying, one part awesome. It’s a tween dancing to “Super Bass” by Nicki Minaj in a crowded Chicago Apple Store. It’s not quite as endearing as that one kid who lipsynched to the Black Eyed Peas in an Apple Store (video sadly removed), but I have to give this footloose …

BIG BROTHER FINALE PHOTOCAP: Ain’t No One Coming Between Her and Her Prize

The confetti has fallen. The seats have emptied. The house has been cleared out. Big Brother 13 is over, and another season is behind us. It’s taken me a day to get around to this photocap — not because I’m curled up in a ball of sadness, but because in the wake of the finale, …

RACHEL ZOE PHOTOCAP: Announcing the Rachel Zoe Collection

High drama in the world of The Rachel Zoe Project. Our star headed to New York to debut her collection to the media and buyers, and the stakes could not have been higher. We knew this because Rachel reminded us about this every two seconds. In fact, just when we thought she’d passed one hurdle …

FROM WORST TO BEST: Ranking The Big Brother Alliances

One of the great pleasures of watching Big Brother is observing how people stuck in a house battling for money will claw and fight their way to the top of the heap. This often involves the formation of alliances, replete with stupid names, and more often than not, those alliances collapse in the most spectacular …

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS PHOTOCAP: The Ladies Go Downhill

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills traded in the sunny shores of California for the snowy peaks of Colorado last night as the women all headed east for a weekend at Camille’s mountain home. As you can imagine, this led to our first triumphant ski-bunny montage in the history of the Housewives, but sadly, there …

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ PHOTOCAP: Little People, Big Emotions

Congratulations to Bravo for singlehandedly bringing utter shame upon me for feeding the machine that is The Real Housewives of New Jersey. All season, I’ve been extolling this revamped cast’s virtues, citing the complex and all-too-real emotional issues that have plagued the Gorga-Giudice households week in and week out. Great drama! The best! And then …

Fall TV Preview, Based Solely on Billboards and Posters

Here in Los Angeles, the streets are festooned with umpteen billboards and posters promoting new TV series premiering this fall. I’ve been stuck staring at them for weeks now, and recently I’ve begun to realize that I have no idea what half of these shows are supposed to be about, based solely on what I …

BIG BROTHER PHOTOCAP: Sharks and Floaters

We’re coming down to the wire on Big Brother, and I find myself torn in many ways. On the one hand, I’ve found myself rooting for Rachel out of all people. After all, she is the unquestionable star of the season (as she was last year), and despite her ridiculous histrionics, she’s actually played a …
