August 2008 Archives

Barack Obama is a uniter.

Forget Reublicans, Democrats and Independents. Obama has brought together a pair of celebrity gossip rivals.

Ladies and gentlemen, a new entry has entered the running for Cutest Celebrity Baby on the Planet.

Presenting... Nahla!

You might think Sarah Palin - the Republican candidate for Vice President of the United States - is having a great week, but three recent developments have popped up:

In a hilarious - albeit truthful and insightful - rant, the rapper went off on John McCain for being irresponsible enough to place someone as inexperienced as Mrs. Todd Palin on the ticket.

Even on The Sopranos, James Gandolfini put family first.

Now, the actor is doing the same in real life, as he tied the knot with fiancée Deborah Lin yesterday in her hometown of Honolulu, Hawaii."There was a nice big kiss at the end with both hands on the cheeks," a source at the ceremony told People Magazine, adding the couple "looked great."

Julianne Hough is our favorite Dancing with the Stars professional of all-time. No offense, Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

Nevertheless, we can't say we're a big fan of Hough's look below. The off-the-shoulder outfit, the swirling design that leaves one side exposed and one's eyes blurry. It's just too much.

One stars on 30 Rock. The other was just chosen as a possible Vice President of the United States. We can only hope there's an episode of the NBC comedy this fall in which Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) is mistaken for Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Welcome, celebrity news and gossip fans, to The Hollywood Gossip Caption Contest, our Friday tradition. Who wins this edition of the Caption Contest?

Tough call, but our winner is SpaceAceMoonBoots. Congrats. The winning entry now appears below the pic. Thanks for playing, and good luck this week!

With Sarah Palin named to John McCain's Republican ticket, both parties are set for an exciting November election. But we're concerned with something far more important here - ticket nicknames. Vote in the poll below and tell us:

WHICH TICKET HAS THE BEST NICKNAME?

The Bachelorette star DeAnna Pappas and Jesse Csincsak, her fiancé, are getting married next year — and in a twist only appropriate for their reality TV romance, former Bachelor star Andy Baldwin will perform the ceremony!

“Andy Baldwin is a certified minister,” an insider explains to celeb gossip tabloid InTouch Weekly, noting that the rose ceremony veterans met on MySpace (really) - then grew so close that Andy was asked to officiate at the wedding.

It seems evident at this point that Stephanie Rice is not dating Michael Phelps.

But Carrie Underwood might be!!!

As you check out the following Ali Lohan picture on the cover of some magazine called Supermodels Unlimited, keep this in mind:

She's 14 years old!

Tough call, but she edges out Dick Cheney for that distinction. Barely.

Earlier today, John McCain named Sarah Palin, the little-known Governor of Alaska, as his Vice Presidential running mate in the 2008 election.

Just when we thought every possible way of ridiculing Heidi Montagand her music video for "Overdosin'" had been explored, The Soup's Joel McHale proved us wrong yet again. Check out this disturbing, hilarious parody ...

This may not be a Leryn Franco nude photo.

But, dizzzamn, it's still a nice shot of the terrible Olympian javelin thrower...

It's still a week early for the MTV Video Music Awards, but Britney Spears, who is up for three awards, is already garnering support.

Count one hip-hop heavyweight, producer Pharrell Williams, among her fans.

Apparently presidential hopeful John McCain shares a birthday with Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson! What does THAT say about his ability to lead?!

Just kidding. We won't hold sharing August 29 as a of birth with the King of Crazy against John McCain, who turns 102 (give or take 30) today.

We learned a lot about various celebrities this week.Jessica Simpson doesn't often tell people they're the love of her life; Pierce Brosnan's wife, Keely Shaye Smith, is proud of her full figure; and Jason Mesnick is just your basic, normal guy with a rabid reality TV fan base.

Here's a look at who said what over the last few days...

The main American Idol talk this week has centered around Kara DioGuardi as the fourth judge on the show. Look for her in season eight.

But while decisions such as this were being made behind the scenes, the two most popular contestants from season seven were entertaining fans as part of the American Idols Live Tour.

Kim Kardashian's ass may have its own zip code, but it's also about to have its own national stage: season seven of Dancing with the Stars.

As a result, the reality television and sex tape star says she has goals for her most famous body part (no offense to her giant breasts).

You gotta hand it to Michael Lohan.

The awful father and terrible human being has managed to use an event such as his father passing away to garner publicity for himself and to bash his ex-wife.

Face, that is. As well as in the figurative sense, of course.

Really, who can blame Spencer Pratt for his inability to keep his hands (or mouth) off of Heidi Montag? Sure, she has no original body parts left, or any talent to speak. But dating her has allowed him to make millions!

Chris Brown was out for a run the other day and after a difficult start, it finally it occurred to him that he doing wrong. Hey, better late than never. Fortunately, the Rihanna boy toy and possible roommate came through at the end...

The glory that is Chris Brown shirtless. You're welcome, girls.

The battle lines have been clearly drawn for years. But since a recent TV Guide photo spread has actually pitted The Hills' respective "teams" - captained by stars Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag - in tight-fitting football uniforms and ready to rumble, we're forced to ask this time-honored celebrity gossip question once again:

WHICH TEAM ARE YOU ON?

Having already overcome a dangerous foot injury, Kim Kardashian is getting down to Dancing with the Stars business.

The large-boobed reality TV star told Us Weekly that she's been practicing her moves for the show on boyfriend Reggie Bush.
