| New Photos From The Set Of Mad Men Show Don And His Child Bride Fighting Posted: 13 Oct 2011 11:23 AM PDT
Anyone who’s still sore over Don Draper‘s abrupt rejection of the smart and beautiful Dr. Faye Miller in favor of his non-face-washing woman-child of a secretary will be happy to see that the two are going to hit some rough waters next season. Some new photos from the set of Mad Men show Don and Megan (ugh) having it out in front of (what else?) a Howard Johnson. Prediction: Don’s stupid marriage to stupid Megan is not long for this world.

| Video: The Music Video For Betty White And Luciana’s ‘I’m Still Hot’ Is Here Posted: 13 Oct 2011 11:13 AM PDT Remember that weird/awesome song that Betty White recorded with someone called Luciana? Well, now there’s a music video for it, and it’s every bit as great as I thought it would be. “I’m Still Hot” opens with Betty at the LA Zoo, which, not coincidentally, will receive a portion of the proceeds from the single’s sales. Luciana rolls up in her car, and it. is. on. Betty sits on a throne surrounded by beefcakes, talks about how she’s “living life at the top,” and even recruits a body double for some break dancing. Adorable! This is all lots of fun, but it also bears mentioning that the whole enterprise is sponsored by The Lifeline Program, which has hired Betty as its spokesperson. What this for-profit company does is buy insurance policies from the elderly and the terminally ill for significant sums (but less than the actual payout when the person dies). The elderly person gets to take a big chunk of money and have fun (or just, you know, avoid homelessness) in his or her golden years, and the company gets to keep the insurance money when they die. Basically, it’s for old people who’d like to enjoy their insurance money before they kick, rather than letting their ungrateful grown children enjoy it afterwards. And/or people who have no money and no other option. It seems like it could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending. Anyway, dude, Betty White is rapping. Look at her go!

| Adultery Site AshleyMadison.com Offers David Boreanaz $250K To Be Their ‘Brand Manager’ Posted: 13 Oct 2011 11:10 AM PDT
AshleyMadison.com could probably use a positive spin, so they’ve reached out to David’s rep with a letter outlining their terms. The company is offering him $250,000 to…
The fact that David and Jaime were able to “bond” over his infidelity is exactly what AshleyMadison.com is looking to promote. CEO Noel Biderman – the same man who wrote the letter to David — told E! Online,
David hasn’t responded yet, though it’s interesting timing that just last night he tweeted a photo of him and Jaime enjoying Indian food in NYC with the caption Bonding. Related posts: Post from: Crushable |
| Posted: 13 Oct 2011 11:06 AM PDT Last week, we posted the trailer for Young Adult, Jason Reitman and Diablo Cody‘s new flick starring Charlize Theron. We’ve watched the teaser several times since then and decided it needed more analysis. Hence: The trailer opens on an aerial shot of a motel that sits next to a Home Depot, presumably meant to indicate that we're back in Kansas anymore. Charlize, who wears a Hello Kitty shirt (artifact of immaturity!), checks in with the woman at the front desk. (Side note: Somehow we let a new stock character slip into the language of American cinema, and it's the surly teenage goth girl who works the register. This girl, who is all eyeliner and no intonation, stands non the other side of the counter from our protagonist in half the movies made this decade.) So surly goth girl has welcomed Mavis to the Hampton Inn in her flat monotone goth girl voice. Charlize's bag begins to vibrate and bark. Counter Girl asks if she's got a dog in there. Charlize denies it. The woman says smalls dogs are actually allowed with a pet deposit. Charlize says that's good, because she does have a small dog… in her vehicle. That's joke one. Joke two is that the thing in her bag is not actually a dog, it's a vibrator. The town Mavis grew up in is called Mercury, not for the planet, the element or the god, but for the SUV manufacturer. In a Mercury bar, Mavis chugs whiskey with her old pal Patton Oswalt. Then she fixes her hair in her hotel and attends a daytime gathering in someone's home. A woman at said gathering refers to Mavis as a "psychotic prom queen bitch," which is confusing because I thought that was the premise of Jennifer's Body. David Bowie's "Queen Bitch" plays during all of this, because: subtlety. In the next sequence, we learn why Mavis has traveled home to Mercury. She wants to win back the affections of Buddy Slade, her high school boyfriend, who's married with a baby. Buddy is played by a very blonde and sweater-wearing Patrick Wilson. (Side note: Do you get the sense that Patrick Wilson is an actual, real sociopath? Great. Glad we agree.) Next up, Mavis has dinner with an older woman I assume to be her mother. This woman comments that Buddy's infant child is, "just darling," and in response, Mavis snorts. She does not find the baby darling at all, because she is a different kind of woman — one who's better than all these small town folk because she’s got her career and her New York and her vibrator dog. Montage time! Mavis gets her nails done, Mavis does shots of whiskey with Buddy, Mavis is bumped by a mean woman and spills wine all down her shirt. That's another thing we can do away with in movies, maybe?, the wine spill” We live in an age of Tide stain remover pens, which renders the wine spine a not-very-big-deal. Intertitles read, "Everyone gets old. Not everyone grows up." Mavis heads to a department store to buy a new outfit for the rock concert she's going to with "an old flame." Buddy's wife will be there also, and it's this presumably sweet and anti-Mavis woman that Mavis wants to impress and indimidate. Might we suggest another bit of infantilizing Hello Kitty garb? Presumably, though, Mavis will pick out something sexy and take it up to the register, where a surly girl in chains and eyeliner will ring her up. "Young Adult," another title reads. Ah yes, a double-entendre. The trailer closes with Patrick Wilson explaining to Mavis why she needs to leave him alone. "Mavis, I'm a married man,” he says. "I know,” a totally-not-comprehending Mavis responds. “We can beat this thing, together." Related posts: Post from: Crushable |
| The Cougar Town Cast Is Making A Bunch Of Fun Cameos On TV Shows This Fall Posted: 13 Oct 2011 11:26 AM PDT
Now, the entire Cougar Town cast is doing a mass exodus of cross-promotion all over TV this fall. Since the show won’t return for its third season until January, they figured they had time to kill. Plus, it’s a great form of guerilla marketing that fans will actually enjoy watching. So far 13 shows are onboard to feature the stars what sound like they’ll be non-speaking roles—a treat for loyal viewers who can spot Busy Phillips, Dan Byrd, Josh Hopkins, or Brian Van Holt. Here are the ones we know, by network:
The two big guest roles so far both happen tonight, on Shonda Rhimes‘ two medical dramas. Ian Gomez will convince us he’s a doctor on Grey’s Anatomy; then Courteney Cox and Christa Miller play a lesbian couple at a fertility clinic on Private Practice. Courteney and daughter Coco were spotted earlier this week on Dancing with the Stars to cheer on her estranged husband David Arquette, but we assume that that appearance was unofficial. Whichever actor appears on that show will probably do so in-character. And here’s that Abed cameo, if you’re curious: Related posts: Post from: Crushable |
| Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Kim Zolciak Overestimates Her Fame, Bans Cameras At Wedding Posted: 13 Oct 2011 08:58 AM PDT
Who does Kim Zolciak think she is, Kim Kardashian or Jennifer Lopez? TMZ just obtained these wedding invites, in which the Real Housewives of Atlanta star informs her guests that no cameras or cell phones will be allowed on the property for her November 11 wedding. There are many things wrong with this. 1) Kim assumes that the guests will be so overwhelmed by her fame that they’ll be compelled to post the footage online. Except that she’s nothing more than a reality star with a collection of bad wigs. 2) She says that it’s to protect her and fiancé Kroy Biermann‘s “privacy”… but she also clearly says that they’re having the ceremony filmed. With any other person you might think, Of course they’re filming it, to watch with their kids someday. But she also warns guests that they’ll have to sign a release—so this is undoubtedly ending up on a RHOA episode. (Though the way Kim’s acting, she probably thinks she can sell it to E! or Style.) Note the date—11/11/11. Someone thinks she’s #1, eh? Related posts: Post from: Crushable |
| The Daily WTF: Cool Tattoo, Bro Posted: 13 Oct 2011 08:54 AM PDT
Cool, tattoo, bro. Super clever. What a great way to ensure that no one will want to talk to you ever again. “Oh, Randy? Yeah, you don’t want to get into conversation with him. He seems like a nice guy, but the second you start on something slight long-winded, he’ll pull down his jeans and shove his ass right in your face. ‘Cool story, bro,’ he’ll say, echoing his tattoo. And then he’ll cackle and high-five himself. So really, it’s best to just leave Randy to his own devices.” (Sorry about the butt.) (via BuzzFeed) Post from: Crushable |
| Jessica Alba Sues ‘The Belly Bandit’ For Claiming She Endorsed It Posted: 13 Oct 2011 08:54 AM PDT
Have you heard of The Belly Bandit? It’s a post-pregnancy weight loss device that claims to wrap around your tummy and basically smoosh the fat away. Apparently, it’s popular. There’s even a sexy black lace one made by Kourtney Kardashian. That’s right: a sexy black lace fat smoosher. All that success may have gone to their heads, because the makers of the Bandit made the mistake of using celebrity mom Jessica Alba‘s image without her permission, and now she’s suing them like whoa. In addition to putting her in their “celebrity testimonials” section, they put “Jessica Alba’s #2 Secret for a Fast Post Pregnancy Slimdown!” on the thing’s packaging. What’s #1? You don’t want to know. In addition to $1 million in damages, Ms. Alba is demanding a cut of the profits they made using her name and fake endorsement. Ugh, how dumb can you be, Belly Bandit? Everyone knows Jessica Alba slimmed down like all the A-list actresses do: using the Hollywood Cookie Diet. (Via The New York Daily News) Related posts: Post from: Crushable |

This is probably the best news of the day, and it’s barely lunchtime. AshleyMadison.com, the “married dating service,” has landed on the best possible cheating celebrity to serve as their “brand manager”: David Boreanaz. You’ll remember that earlier this week 
Cougar Town creator Bill Lawrence is a big fan of cross-promotion: Last season, the Community character Abed (Danny Pudi) popped up in the background of a Cougar episode; and when Scrubs was still on the air, Bill let star Sarah Chalke play a recurring role on How I Met Your Mother.
