Gallery: Hapy Birthday, Pippa Middleton

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 10:31 AM PDT

Pippa Middleton is one of those rare famous-by-association celebrities who attracts a minimum of ire from the general public. Maybe it’s because she doesn’t seem to be trying too hard to get our attention. Maybe it’s because she seems to agree that all the attention being paid to her (and her nice but relatively normal-looking backside) is a bit silly, but she will play along and smile for the camera nonetheless because it seems to make people happy. In any case, she’s turning 28 today, so I’ve assembled some nice photos of her (and her butt) wearing various outfits and having various types of fun. Happy birthday to you, and your little bum, too.

We Could Get Behind Lady Gaga and Beyonce As Pop Culture Power Rangers

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 10:24 AM PDT

It’s shocking how many times the Power Rangers have changed forms since we watched the original show in 1993. They’ve been ninjas, samurai, time travelers, and possibly dinosaurs? (They’re almost as bad as the Disney princesses!) But we kinda like this new reimagining of them as pop princesses with hair that conveniently matches the colors of the originals’ uniforms.

That’s Katy Perry as the Blue Ranger/intellectual, Nicki Minaj as the Pink Ranger/sexpot, Rihanna as the Red Ranger/leader, Beyonce as the Black Ranger/action star, and Lady Gaga as the Yellow Ranger/tough one.

One suggestion, however: We’d like to nominate Pink as the new White Ranger. (We tried to find a suitable Green Ranger, but the only celebrity with green hair we could find was Avril Lavigne, and that’s just preposterous.)

Celebrity Lookalikes: Mila Kunis and Emma Stone Share a Face

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 10:18 AM PDT

Are they twins separated at birth? Is there something Mary Jane Watson isn’t telling us? Is Hannah Montana real?! I ask these questions in reference to Mila Kunis and Emma Stone, who look absolutely exactly the same. Haven’t seen it before? You were probably blinded by Emma’s bright red hair. Foiled again, Hollywood! Check out what I mean:

Bachelor Pad Superlatives: No Is No, Kasey!

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 09:53 AM PDT

The rules have changed, but the idiots are still the same. They're now competing as couples, which means the stakes are a bit higher…and Erica and Kasey are much, much hornier. As in, they both needed to be told "no" on multiple occasions after unwanted sexual advances. Yikes! Thankfully, Blake continued to provide us with fodder and Erica really, really stepped it up to make this a week to remember. Here is my week 5 recap, superlatives style.

Best Teaser Line:
Michael.

"There’s part of me that wants to punch him in his perfect ridiculous dentist teeth."

I have always been confused by this, Michael. Why doesn't all of you want to punch Blake in the face? What part of you doesn't want to punch him? Your fist?

Easiest lay:
Erica.
Though this was fairly common knowledge, the Nearlywed game made it official when we found out it took a mere three dates to bed Erica.

Runner up:
Ella.
It takes five dates to get in her pants, though considering she has a 9 year old boy at home, maybe technically that makes her the easier lay…when you adjust for her pre-child sluttiness.

Most embarrassing admission:
Michael.
"I haven't had a one night stand in my life."
I don't think any of us would be surprised if we found out Holly was his one and only stand ever.

Runner Up:
Kasey.
The Red Skull admitted he was 21 when he lost his virginity. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahah (deep breath)…..hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Side note- some of that laughter is because he and Vienna have been dating for a year and know absolutely nothing about each other, as evidenced by their last place finish in the Nearlywed game.

Most genius strategy:
Graham and Michelle Money (aka Michelle Kardashian):

"Michael, 7 and sense of humor."

During the Nearlywed game, Michelle and Graham decided to repeat one of those three answers over and over again whenever asked a question. It was a brilliant code to outwit such brilliant minds as Erica and Kasey (aka Red Skull).

Biggest hindrance to a genius strategy:
Michelle.

"Our plan is totally foolproof as long as I remember what the plan is."

Yes, that is the tricky thing about plans, Michelle. And somehow they managed to squeak out a victory, despite her mental shortcomings.

Crushable Quotable: Rookie Blue Star Enuka Okuma Treasures Her Time on Canadian Teen Dramas and with Former Castmate Ryan Reynolds

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 08:54 AM PDT

We’re already in Degrassi withdrawal after last week’s lackluster season finale. Consider it great timing, then, that we recently got to speak with Enuka Okuma, who stars on ABC’s cop drama Rookie Blue, about her acting roots on another Canadian teen drama, Fifteen. Though the name may mean nothing to Americans, one of its other big stars will ring a bell: Ryan Reynolds, with whom Enuka shared the screen for the first season.

Enuka left Fifteen (called Hillside in Canada) after the first season because the show was relocating to Florida and she decided to stay in Vancouver. But she says that even though she doesn’t see Ryan that often, they’re bonded by the time they spent on the soap:

It's been phenomenal to watch his career. He's still the same down-to-earth, hilarious good actor and good guy. We run into each other every now and then — I literally, physically run into him in New York every now and then. [Fifteen co-star] Chris William Martin is good friends with Ryan, as well. Chris and I hang out al the time, but we never see Ryan because he's just never around.

After Fifteen, Enuka also appeared on yet another Canadian soap, called Madison. It was there that she heard about a little program called Degrassi:

My heart is always with the teen shows because I started out on three different shows. [Madison] shot on [Canada's] west coast, but Degrassi was sort of the “East Coast” version of the same kind of show. So in our country people remember both, but Degrassi went on to be huge in the States, so people remember that one a bit more. …That being said, my friends from Madison are still super-close friends of mine, and a lot of them are still acting. Some are producing, directing, writing, but most everyone's still in the game, which is kind of rare. We met a lot of the Degrassi actors as well; they're friends of mine, too. A lot of them are still acting. …Back then, Degrassi was really gritty and the stories were really laughable compared to what they’re doing now. I'm really impressed — the game just keeps changing, because kids are getting more and more savvy. If you want to be realistic in portraying them, you have to respect that things are changing.

You can't feed kids bull. They know, so if you're gonna represent them, represent them the way they actually are. I feel like shows like Degrassi and Skins, they do it. It's hard for people to watch, and a lot of parents are in denial, but it's the truth.

Gossip Girls‘s Jessica Szohr To Star In Teen Werewolf Movie

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 08:58 AM PDT

Now that the character of Vanessa Abrams has been dropped from the regular cast of Gossip Girl (along with the intolerable Jenny Humphrey), actress Jessica Szohr is free to explore other opportunities. Her first big move post-GG has just been announced: it’s a movie called Love Bite, it co-stars some guy who’s on The Borgias, and it’s a teen sex/horror comedy about werewolves. Via Hollywood Reporter:

The script details the story of four friends who find their dead-end town in turmoil after a bloodthirsty werewolf starts gnawing local virgins. The quartet subsequently realize that losing their virginity might provide the best route to survival.

But I thought losing your v-card was the fastest route to death in a teen horror movie? This movie is breaking rules left and right. Also, everyone knows that vampires are better than werewolves. But maybe this will be the film that proves that axiom wrong.

Will this popcorn flick be enough to make us like Ms. Szohr again? Because the way I see it, Gossip Girl has been a double-edged sword for her. On the one hand, nobody would know who she was if it weren’t for her landing a role on the hugely popular show. On the other, she played a character who was pretty much The Worst, a whiny, garish collection of neo-hippie signifiers whose emotional profile the writers often changed with zero explanation in order to move the plot along. It’s not fair, but right now when people look at her, they see Vanessa. Why, I’m getting annoyed just looking at her face right now. Shut up, Vanessa. Go back to Bard or Italy or wherever you have supposedly disappeared to.

I hope for Jessica Szohr’s sake that this movie is not terrible, but I’ll call it a win for her if her character is decently cool and the film gets better reviews than her last big budget film project, Piranha 3D. We are all rooting for you, pretty actress girl who sometimes dates Ed Westwick and is not Vanessa in real life. Go forth and prosper. And maybe don’t wear bright colors for a while.

Gallery: 10 Ridiculous Photos From Burning Man

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 08:48 AM PDT

Burning Man, the Nevada desert’s annual tribute to radical yoga and hallucinogens, ended last night with the ritual sacrifice of some pers0n-shaped wood. I assume the participants are home recovering and taking shower after shower — after they’ve uploaded their photos to Flickr, of course. Here are some of the nuttiest pictures from this year’s festival. Beware of trapezes, glitter and butterfly wings.

Suicide Doesn’t Kill The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, It Only Makes It Stronger

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 08:18 AM PDT

Season 2 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills premiered last night, only three weeks after one of its stars Russell Armstrong committed suicide. Bravo was always going to have an uncomfortable time of navigating this situation — should they shoot new footage to acknowledge Russell’s death, keep on with season 2′s major storyline of his and Taylor Armstrong‘s crumbling marriage, or scrap the season altogether? We knew they’d never ditch their cash cow, but the first episode, “Back to Beverly Hills,” didn’t really commit to any decision, and therefore came out pretty uneven.

This was glaringly obvious a few seconds in: We got the usual titlecard, but with a really somber version of the theme song. It was probably meant to be respectful, but came off as just laughable. As we predicted, the producers started off the season with the suicide special they shot last week: All of the women, except for Taylor, met up to process Russell’s death.

This lasted for maybe five minutes. Then up came a note saying that the rest of the season was recorded prior to Russell’s death, and immediately it jumped into the usual bouncy, bubbly RHOBH opening. Huh?

It looks like for the rest of the season, it’s business as usual. The five-minute suicide talk was an obligation, something that Bravo tossed off to appease those who would be offended that season 2 was going on as if nothing had happened. No more mention will be made to Russell’s death — in fact, now they have the built-in dramatic irony of us watching Russell unravel until he snaps.

What I will give them is that Russell never appeared in the episode, though Taylor talked about their marital problems at least twice. The larger issue there was Ken Todd‘s assertion that going to therapy was a sign of weakness, which really upset Taylor since she wanted a pat on the back for trying to fix her marriage. (Not surprisingly, Ken kept his mouth shut during the suicide special — it’s pretty clear what his real feelings on killing yourself would be.)

The rest of the episode was fairly uneventful: Adrienne Maloof‘s dinner party was an excuse for them to show us how awesome and strong Camille Grammer is being through her divorce, what with her guest spot on S#*! My Dad Says. We got to see Kyle and Kim Richards getting along but both missing their mother… who died in 2002. (Again, awkward when held up against Russell’s death.) Adrienne is bickering with husband Paul Nassif; it seems clear that they’ll have marital problems this season 2, but it’s up to Bravo whether to trade it out for Taylor and Russell’s problems, or keep it in the background.

As much as people talk about respect for Taylor’s family, the fact is that reality shows are necessarily dated, due to being filmed up to six months ahead of time. For instance, the other big reality event last night was Kris Humphries proposing to Kim Kardashian on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. That’s right, we saw Kim’s wedding (or bits of it, at least) before ever seeing her reaction to Kris’ proposal. The same goes for shows where the stars are pregnant, yet by the time their birth airs they’re already post-baby-slim.

So, Bravo wasn’t entirely wrong in keeping the season as something of a pre-death time capsule. But it won’t be an entirely comfortable ride, especially since the preview for this season — while mostly what we’ve seen before — included Taylor drunk and sitting in a suitcase, and lunging after new cast member Brandi Glanville.

Best Quotes

Kyle (during the suicide special): “But there are plenty of women who leave their husbands, and they don’t kill themselves. It was his choice.”

Kim (re: Taylor and Russell’s problems): “You have to work at it. Go to Africa, have a child! Save your marriage.”

We couldn’t actually figure out what Taylor’s zinger to Ken (which she told Kyle in the bathroom) was, but the gist of it was that he shouldn’t call her weak when he’s feeding his pampered pooch at the table. This is what we heard, even after multiple rewinds: “How can you call me weak when you are tearing a dog room dressed up in clothes!”

Questionable Choices: Lauren Conrad Forgot Her Pants

Posted: 06 Sep 2011 08:03 AM PDT

Pantsless celebrities: It’s a time-honored tradition a la hospital stays to recover from dehydration and Proactiv commercials. Lauren Conrad‘s the latest addition to the ranks of the no-pants gang (very menacing, plus motorcycles) with this sheer ensemble that nearly qualifies as public nudity. I like her shoes, though?

Lauren wore this ensemble to a club in Hollywood Saturday night. The Hills star is reportedly dating Teen Wolf actor Colton Haynes, whose shirtless body you can see all over the Internet with a quick Google search. Perhaps LC was just trying to match her beau.
