For all you fans of HBO’s Eastbound & Down:
“Fans of hilarious, unrepentantly crude, and life-lesson-phobic television rejoice: HBO has just picked up Eastbound & Down for a second season, which will air sometime in 2010.”
And as to the controversy as to whether or not Katy Mixon used a body double in the Season Finale, here [...]

“Powder Blue” … Certain to win an Academy Award …
and she may actually be topless or nude in it…
Q: I assume you’re still sticking to your policy of no nudity in the film? I heard you picked out your own body double for Nailed.
JB: “Yeah I did pick out my own body double. That was [...]

David Letterman, that sneaky old bastard, secretly tied the knot with longtime girlfriend (and mother to 5-year old Harry) Regina Lasko. Even sneakier? US Weekly, which scooped the story. Dave and Regina have been dating since 1986. There’s still hope for Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins!

Also recently hitched is Danica McKellar — [...]

Baby Liam has a daddy! Harrison Ford popped the question to Calista Flockhart after seven years of courtship. He slogged through the desert of her post-Ally-McBeal non-career, only to have his patience rewarded with new success on Brothers and Sisters. Also? Calista is 44 years old. Dizzamn. And they tell [...]

It is a pattern pitifully familiar here in the 21st century. Some men just can’t handle being outplayed or outearned by their lady counterparts. Or perhaps successful women feel like they can score an even better mate once they eclipse their current model. Either way, this trend is noticeable in particular among [...]

Joaquin Phoenix? Remember him? Well, he joined the ranks of Farrah Fawcett, Madonna, Courtney Love, and Drew Barrymore for most-awkward David Letterman appearances. Was it an Oscar-worthy hoax? A drug-induced haze? A plea for help? Whatever it was, for the love of God, please check it out:

The biggest [...]

Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight leaving Grey’s Anatomy … OR ARE THEY?  Cue the dramatic music.  Scratch that - no one cares.  I stopped watching that show months ago when they got into haunted boots-knocking.
Norm Macdonald, arguably one of the most underrated funny dudes ever, sacked up and insulted Jay Leno … on the Conan [...]

You think that $225 Fleetwood Mac ticket was a little steep already?  Now competition is no more.  Live Nation and Ticketmaster are merging.  Now, LN is buying Ticketmaster, so maybe things will change for the better, so … nah, I doubt it.  I’m prepared to pay $85 to see Lifehouse again ($25 of which will [...]

Chris Brown, on the night of the GRAMMY AWARDS, decides to physically abuse cute-as-a-button girlfriend Rihanna.  Chris?  This story does not end well, I saw it the first time, and it ends with her strutting her hot legs around until she’s 70-plus while you’re dead and buried.  Speaking of dead and buried, this was not [...]

New study links television watching with depression.  Hmmm.  Only if you are A), watching Mad Men and it is one of those scenes with Betty and creepy-10-year-old Glenn or B), watching Two and a Half Men wondering why it is on the air while Arrested Development got cancelled.
Christian Bale went nuts on the set of [...]

The Super Bowl happened, the game was actually compelling, the ads sucked.  And that’s the last I’ll speak of THAT!  (Still trying to drag Slappy out of hiding.  Come talk two of your loves, friend - football and advertising).
In other news …
Michael Phelps done got caught toking up at a party in South Carolina.  Funny [...]

Jax asked a few days ago where Slappy had been. Well, he’s been swamped at his “day job,” for one, but hopefully this post of mine gets him out of hiding. Months ago, I listed my least favorite “Wack Packers,” those freaks of society that plague or promote the Howard Stern show, depending [...]

Kelly Clarkson’s new single jumps the f*ck right up the Billboard charts, from 97 to 1 (with a bullet). You might say that since she’s been gone, we’ve missed the hell out of her. Welcome back, Kelly!
NBC says it still has two ad spots to sell for this Sunday’s Super Bowl. [...]

Remember Evan Rachel Wood?  She of the Marilyn Manson banging?  She has evidently made another stellar mating choice, “canoodling” with Mickey Rourke, who (ewww), played her on-screen father in The Wrestler. Okay, first of all, there’s the on-screen father/daughter thing as aforementioned.  Secondly, she is 21 to his 56.  Thirdly, he’s MICKEY ROURKE.  Fourthly, this [...]

John Updike, prolific author of The “Rabbit” series, The Witches of Eastwick, and dozens of other novels, passed away today at 76 after battling lung cancer. To be honest, I’ve never read any of his books because I’m not a dude living in New England. But seriously, I knew him to be [...]

Prince Harry, third in line to the Throne of England behind his Pops and his brother William, was reportedly dumped by his law-school girlfriend. He now re-joins the eligible bachelor list, along with George Clooney, Artie Lange, Corey Haim, and the guy who played “Ned Ryerson” in Groundhog Day.
Elsewhere in breakupsville, Glen Hansard [...]

Oscar nominations came out!  Benjamin Button and Brangelina both scored, my fave lady Kate Winslet got a Best Actress nomination - for the same role in The Reader for which she won a Golden Globe as … wait for it … supporting actress. Oh-kay.  She may continue to be my little Susan Lucci of the [...]

Jennifer Love Hewitt, she of the poor taste in men, called off her wedding earlier this month and is now telling the world WHY.  US Weekly, master of journalistic intrigue, cites “jealousy, fights, and [Jennifer's] insecurities” as the root of the problem.
Shia LaBeouf is Shia LaBusted (rimshot!), as his license was stripped from him following [...]

One of the few celebrities I’ve met in my day was River Phoenix.  It was April 1991, he looked a hot mess, had bad skin, worse hair, was rude, and was, as it turned out, about 2-1/2 years from a very premature death by opiates.  I’ve always felt bad for Joaquin “I used to be [...]
