Oscar Schmoscar
Remember when the Oscars meant something? Families would gather round their one television set, snacks piled high. It was the signature event of the movie industry, when actors still held a mystique because they were so inaccessible. Their lifestyles were imagined rather than paraded for the media, only few would speak out in support of [...]
The Charlie Sheen Sex Scandal, Part Deux
I have been waiting for someone to break the story about the Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller sex scandal for weeks. My source told me all the salacious dish about their drug-induced, hyper-active sexcapades but asked me not to share it with my lovely readers. Well, now that RadarOnline has done so, I am happy [...]
Leave Naomi Alone
Is the world bored? Whoever is interested in how Naomi Campbell treats her staff, please raise your hand. And with your raised hand, look in the mirror and ask yourself, “Why do I care whether Naomi Campbell whooped her limo driver or not?” And that the New York City police are looking for her is [...]

So here you go….the riveting news…the following people will be on Dancing With The Stars. Starting with the most riveting women on Earth. Kate Gosselin.
Next up is Buzz Aldrin. Yes, that Buzz Aldrin, the man on the moon circa 1969, and currently a fixture on the Beverly Hills social scene.
One of my favorite people, Shannen [...]
Charlie Sheen Back In Rehab?!?
Remember Christmas? So much drama happened this past holiday, and I don’t mean your traditional family dinner with cursing and yelling and depression. That is child’s play compared to the near fatal plane crash by terrorist slash underwear model Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab. And what about that nativity scene at the Charlie Sheen mansion in [...]
Where’s Waldo a.k.a. Zoe Saldana?!?
Twice this week, Cathy Horyn from The New York Times Style Section has mentioned Zoe Saldana in relation to attending New York Fashion Week events and in both cases…she got it wrong. How does that happen? Cathy Horyn is like the goddess of The New York Times Style. Her sensual, melodic voice recapping each the [...]
There’s Was A Tiger In His Tank
Just watched the press conference with Tiger Woods, looking all pouty and apologetic for have endless amounts of glommy and poontang with a gaggle of hussies. I am not buying any of it. As you all know, golf has never been a big attraction for me, so why would I hang on every word that [...]
“Bloggers Are The New Celebrities”- Women’s Wear Daily
With all the recent hub bub about celebrities sitting front row comes a new declaration from Women’s Wear Daily that bloggers are the new celebrities populating Fashion Week. That’s pretty amazing when you consider that just a few short seasons ago, bloggers were like flies to publicists, annoyingly buzzing around their heads trying to get [...]
Alexander McQueen Collection To Carry On
An inside source within the Gucci Group, that owns majority share in Alexander McQueen (may he rest in peace), told me that they are busy looking to appoint someone from within the company to spearhead the label. Who on Earth can continue the tradition of Alexander McQueen’s long standing reputation as a master technician and [...]
Gaga Needs Pearly Whites
I know, I know…blasphemy to say anything contradictory about Lady Gaga. I get it…she’s fierce. She’s Perez Hilton’s best friend. She’s the apple of everyone’s eye from 6 to 60 years old. I get it. “She’s the new Madonna, but better”, some people say. But can I just point out her teeth here glittering amongst [...]
Congratulations New Orleans Saints
Not that I am a big football fan, though once you start watching the sport, it’s hard to tear yourself away…for more than one reason. But I watched the Super Bowl and was moved by the win by the New Orleans Saints. As these guys run around the field, bang heads, slap each others’ rear [...]
Governor Paterson Scandal To Break
So, now I have heard everything…but this ditty takes the cake. My inside source in Albany said that New York Governor David Paterson is embroiled in a controversy that will make you chapp dein kop (hold your head in Yiddish). The New York Times is working on the story, which is said to break momentarily. [...]
Tiger and Elin…Happy At Last…ish
After what was surely the greatest media story on Earth, second to the death of Michael Jackson, The Tiger Woods Affair…rather….affairs, took an unexpected turn when Elin, the long suffering golf club aficionado, reunited with her overly poontanged husband, Tiger. In the midst of that media flurry, when the public was introduced to 13 of [...]
How Is Jenny Sanford a Style Story?!?
It has been a while since I have commented on The New York Times Style Section. Seemed like someone was listening and there were actual fashion related stories running in the bi-weekly Style Section…ya’d think. But today, the lead story in the Sunday Style is all about Jenny Sanford. Now, she is a lovely woman [...]
And The Winners Are…
What is the deal with nominating ten films for Best Movie for an Academy Award? They needed to add those extra five like I am going to the moon. Sure, they talked on and on about the Golden Age of Hollywood and that they had ten nominees. Yoo hoo, that was when Hollywood was churning [...]
Brad and Angelina Are Fine…You All Should Be So Fine
At the Grammy Awards, some queen from E! Entertainment reported that Brad and Angelina were not separated. Well, did he read I Mean…What?!? My source said days ago that there was NO TRUTH to the rumor about a pending split between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. I was told by the insider that while in [...]
Who Let The Dogs Out
It really is a shame that dogs have gotten a bad rap because of the basic human need to name-call. What is more amazing than your dog? Nothing. The expression, “It’s a dog’s life” refers to the easy, pressure-free existence that our pampered dogs live. Laying, stretching, nibbling, laying, stretching, nibbling. They are plenty busy. [...]

The Gay Divorcee
Who says that I Mean…What?!? wouldn’t lead to major things? Actually, several great opportunities have come my way, mostly writing gigs, which has officially become my mid-life career. Hey it’s sure beats the mid-life crisis…trust me. One of the gigs is writing articles for a just-launched website catering to the newly divorced set called Divorce [...]
How Beautiful Is Liv Tyler?!?
Some girls have all the luck, like being born into a cool family, being the kind of beautiful that gives you the opportunity to model, work as an actress, experience motherhood…all the things that I would like to be and do when I grow up. Liv Tyler is one of those girls. Today, Women’s Wear [...]
Honestly, Do You Care About This Leno-O’Brien Saga?!?
There’s no accounting for taste, or what the American public will salivate over in terms of media nonsense. Case in point: The Jay Leno – Conan O’Brien Saga of Tremense Proportions. I could care less which one of these guys is on which channel and at what time…if ever again. We (those of us on [...]
Dumbing Down Fashion – The Video Era Is Here
Somebody stick a fork in me to see if I am totally cooked. The Story of the Week in Women’s Wear Daily is Fashion Video Games Target Female Customers. How depressing is that? The big news, in addition to the fact that it’s bad news from my vantage point, is that Project Runway is doing [...]
Anna Wintour On A Subway?!?
Today’s Page Six item in the New York Post says that the new Vogue Publisher, Susan Plagmann is cracking down on expenses for the magazine and that, “Senior people have been told they must take more subways to meetings as opposed to Town Cars to save money.” Well, shut my mouth. Frankly, I don’t care [...]
What Is More Fabulous Than This?
I just needed to post these images for Elizabeth Taylor circa 1963 from Cleopatra. I mean come on…who is as remotely beautiful as this in the movie business today? Kiera Knightly? I don’t think so. Penelope Cruz? Maybe-ish. She’s stunning, sure, but La Liz was the most gorgeous thing that ever walked the sound stages…and [...]
