Remember the video? I watched this video over and over again. Captain Spain, overcome with emotion after winning the World Cup, interviewed by his presenter girlfriend, can’t help himself and kisses her on live TV. And then I was obsessed. There followed a holiday to the USA and a lot of Spanish affection along the way. Full Story

Written by Duana So there I am in the nail salon, in the middle of a rather intense conversation with Lainey, when I had to stop, even though I was being a terrible friend and all, to point out that a certain gossip rag indicated that Melissa McCarthy and Jenny McCarthy are first cousins. Full Story

Before we get into this, let’s just revisit one of the best, best, BEST moments of the year and perhaps the Best Quote of 2010. It’s James Franco I Went To Film School during the Hollywood Reporter Best Actor Roundtable. Remember he also declared that he doesn’t “fight for roles” anymore? Start at the 20:25 mark and enjoy it again. Full Story

Written by Sarah (Lainey intro: I asked Sarah for her thoughts on the best and worst in our ongoing Year in Review feature. Obviously I vehemently disagree with Jake Gyllenhaal, even though Prince of Persia totally sucked. As you know, I don’t mind Swifty and Jakey as much as the rest of you. Full Story

Written by Duana (Lainey: aaaaannnnd…. Duana with a controversial position.) It’s like, I don’t want you not to be happy, or anything but … you’ve changed. You just aren’t the same any more. And – I’m not saying it’s him, or anything, but maybe you need to investigate like, what your priorities are? Because the thing is, I love you, and I miss you. Full Story

Not sure where you are but here, in Canada, the Olympics were a big deal in 2010, an even bigger deal in Vancouver, where I live. Every Games produces darlings. There were several Canadian darlings. Among them Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir who took gold in Ice Dance. And they did it with a f-cking statement. Full Story

It happened in June. Six months ago and it still makes me sick. Chris Brown performed an MJ Tribute at the BET Awards. Instead of properly honouring the legend, he decided to make the occasion all about Chris Brown, breaking down into tears during Man in the Mirror, too “overcome” with fake emotion/false remorse/self love to sing the words, sobbing instead into his microphone as fangirls lost their sh-t over his “realness” and other people choked on the fontrum. Full Story

This was the interview where he called Jessica Simpson sexual napalm. Totally offside and really, really disrespectful and I know this is wrong but every time I hear that expression now, SEXUAL NAPALM, I see Porny and her high waisted pants and, well, I chuckle. But it was – if anything –the only funny part of an interview that was terrifyingly stupid and offensive. Full Story

You know how I feel about Justin Timberlake, actor. I have very few complaints about Justin Timberlake, musician. And his Hallelujah with Matt Morris during Hope for Haiti Now was, really, in the worst of times, an unforgettably powerful performance. For days afterward I saved this on our PVR and watched it back over and over. Full Story

I’m sorry to have to do this to you at the end of the day. But in counting down the Best & Worst of the year, how could I not include this? It’s Noah Cyrus. Remember she lipsynched? To Ke$ha??? This child wants you to know her. Badly. She will keep wanting it until she’s like the rest. Full Story

Brendan Fraser provided two great moments worth coming back to this year. Have you forgotten him at the Globes? Dude, they made music videos out of what he did at the Globes. Here. Let me remind you. Maybe it’s just me. But if I’m, like, making a salad or something, and this visual suddenly pops into my mind, I’m straight up laughing. Full Story

We continue to recap the year’s best and worst. Back in February, Kellan Lutz wore an all-white outfit, and took the dog for a walk. The paps were around. And he really really wanted to read his book. So he climbed a tree. And was obviously fully engrossed. Photographers took his picture. His fans, the Twi-Hards, who are, as you know, learning impaired, seemed to think this was by accident. Full Story

In the annual recap of our best and worst gossip moments, it’s impossible not to mention Mimi. And several times. So let this be the first. Remember when Mimi went to the Palm Springs Film Festival and got up on stage... drunk!?! Sigh. These are the best gifts. The escort on stage. How she tiptoe skips up to the mic. Full Story

This is an annual December feature. It’s time to look back at 2010 – the high times, the low classy times, and all the amazingness in between. If there are moments that stand out in particular for you, please let me know. I couldn’t think of a better way to kick this off though than with Salma and that Snake. Full Story
