Frontal Mimi
Before we break off for the weekend (Smutty Tingles is still coming), let’s get ourselves in the best mood possible. You know who’s good for that? Come on. You KNOW who’s always good for that. It’s our Mimi. Mimi appeared to be in Monaco this week. Of course she was. At least it looked that way from this photo she posted of herself with Roc on her Twitter Full Story
Yeezus is Amazing

Sometimes things trend on Twitter and it’s nonsense. Sometimes what’s trending on Twitter deserves to be trending. Kanye West’s interview with the NYT is trending. And so it should. This is amazing. It is the most amazing interview you’ll read all month, maybe even all year. Full Story

Today my mission is to get you guys to officially approve the creation of a subcategory of Girl Sh-t, called Naomi Sh-t. I’ll get down to the specifics of what Naomi Sh-t includes in a minute but first the story behind my inspiration, which is the news that one of the contestants from The Face is now f*cking Naomi’s boyfriend! Are you also having Models Inc flashbacks? Good, because this story just gets better. Full Story

The Smiths are getting a lot of attention this week, particularly for the, um, curious Vulture interview -- click here if you missed Duana’s post on it. Patterns and Joe Kennedy? Child’s play compared to the cray cray that is Courtney Love. Full Story
A Love Letter To My Favourites*
*Kerry Washington is my favourite of all the favourites It’s not a “gossip gift” per se, but this potential drama nominees roundtable is the best gift I could have gotten. It’s delicious. I know all these women, I watch all their shows – it feels strangely indulgent to have them all in the same room and saying things that they maybe shouldn’t. Full Story
Mimi in the morning
Wenn, Splash
What a great start to Memorial Day Weekend for those of you in America: Mimi on GMA. It had all the elements of a classic Mimi appearance: -She needed help walking. Several times. She SUMMONED help walking. Several times. -Her dress almost fell off. Because she always wears clothes that are too small. Full Story

There were two moments worth watching last night at the Billboard Music Awards: Chris Brown singing BADLY off-key, and all the drama that went down between Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, and Justin Bieber. More on this in a minute. First, let’s discuss fashion. HATE the white Atelier Versace on Gomez. Full Story

Just one more week to go... And in advance of the release of Season 4 of Arrested Development on Netflix, here are Jason Bateman and Will Arnett walking hand in hand in New York yesterday, photo opping for the paps.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chloe Sevigny -- don’t these two seem like the most natural enemies since cats and dogs? Since Kelly and Brenda? Since Mariah and all other performers? They’re both so pretentious but in slightly different ways, I can’t believe these two haven’t clashed before, but now it’s happening and it’s perfect. Full Story

The opening night red carpet is now underway in Cannes. Here’s how it works at the Palais: The non-festival people usually arrive first. This includes Euro actors, models, Eva Longoria most years, and people like Phoebe Price. They blast loud music out from the speakers to entertain the massive crowds that line the Croisette.

Hack the GOOP Trip
It’s expensive. It’s awkward. It’s web-based. We must be talking GOOP here, right? Right. Over on Groupon this week, for the low low LOW (ie. high high HIGH) price of $2000 you can join the official “all-inclusive” GOOP NY Getaway. Full Story

Inside 2 weeks! Are you ready? The Arrested Development Season 4 official trailer is now available online. Gob, for some reason, but I guess he doesn’t really need a reason, is doing leg kicks on stage in a towel now. And Buster... Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-maaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Was I the only one totally delighted to see that Kitty Sanchez was featured so prominently? And, amazingly, not in the way you’d expect? Or is that too risqué for a trailer? So, are we marathon-ing this together on May 26 on Netflix or what? Like I said before, I propose we start at midnight. Full Story
