Points for just showing up

Lindsay Lohan was on Letterman last night. You may have already heard about their “awkward” exchange when he pressed her on her rehab and when she’s going and her addictions, etc, but when you watch it back, you’ll see it wasn’t awkward. It was banter. She actually sasses him. Full Story
Shia LaBeouf’s man fixation
FameFlynet, Splash
As I mentioned last week, I am loving Shia LaBeouf right now. I love him so much. Because he has been nothing but entertaining. Crazy, but entertaining. Shia was supposed to be on Broadway in Orphans. But he and Alec Baldwin couldn’t stop yelling at each other. Full Story
Tom Cruise the conversationalist

God that was painful. Just sat through Letterman’s interview with Tom Cruise last night. It was 3 segments which...if you’re familiar with Dave, you know, normally, only the veteran chatters, the good ones, they get 3 segments. Like Tom Hanks. Or Julia Roberts. George Clooney, Sandra Bullock, the ones who can play, and roll, and wit. Full Story
Amy Poehler’s party

I know it was officially the Time 100 party last night but scanning through all the pictures it really looked like it was Amy Poehler’s party. I want to go to an Amy Poehler party. Remember at the Emmys when all the comedy ladies took the stage like a pageant and held each other until a winner was crowned? You know that was all Poehler, right? Poehler is what Ashley Judd was trying to write Full Story
He’s a Loud Talker
Two former Oscar hosts decided to be smug together on television last night as James Franco appeared on Letterman to promote Your Highness for his first interview since sucking at the Oscars in February. And how does he sum up his disappointing performance? Well, he said he tried his best, he said Anne Hathaway was too hyper, and that we’re all hypocrites for hating on his hosting duties after saying the Oscars are irrelevant. Full Story
Hard for Portman
Did you watch Natalie Portman on Letterman last night? I actually wasn’t intending to watch it, but I saw pap photos of Jay Pharoah arriving at the studio and I set the PVR to make sure to catch him, and then when Jacek and I turned it on later, there she was as the first guest, and that kicked off 15 minutes of co-jerking between him and Dave, the two of them sharing hard-ons through the television.

Eat Pray Letterman
Julia Roberts is in New York today, photographed here arriving at Letterman for her appearance tonight, the first time she’s visited him since his infidelity scandal. As you know, Julia is a Letterman favourite. Their chemistry is always, always amazing. One of the few 3 segments guests on his show. Full Story
Letterman hates Stewart
But she has great new hair. LOVE the new hair. And all the ways she was wearing the new hair. Punches up the layers, makes her eyes look different. Very, very beautiful. Kristen Stewart was in New York last night to promote Twilight Eclipse on Letterman and then for the NYC premiere. Two similar dresses. Full Story
Salma on her ranch and her snakes
It was the most wonderfully awkward interview. Dave does that thing he’s so good at doing – he mocks her but also adores her, and he doesn’t understand her, but he really isn’t trying either, and as a result, her amazingness was allowed to flourish for us all. This is good tv. Full Story
Pippy keeps paying off
Justin Timberlake’s good standing with Anna Wintour is yielding many, many benefits for Shelfy Biel. She presented the Womenswear Designer of the Year Awards at the CFDAs last night in New York to Marc Jacobs. So Jessica, she’s some kind of Fashion Person now. Based on what? Oh right, Justin has his own clothing label. Full Story
Rise and rise again...
Until lambs become lions. The question is will these words be as powerful as the ones that came before? Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next. Maximus is back. Only this time he’s called Robin Hood. And the film opens on May 14th. Full Story
Leaving with his lunchbox and sexy in the morning
RDJ left Letterman with his ubiquitous lunch box yesterday. I know it’s not really a lunch box but I like calling it one. Sounds better than his “camera case in which he stores his vitamins which is not a euphemism for drugs, he really does take a lot of vitamins”. See? Lunch box. As usual, he was great on Letterman last night. Full Story
RDJ everywhere
Iron Man 2 drops in 10 days. Robert Downey Jr will be everywhere. Win win win for everyone. He calls it “selling soap”. Tonight RDJ will be on Letterman. And he’s always great on Letterman. Last time he was on Letterman in December for Sherlock Holmes Dave adored him, even when he Tiger Woodsed him. Full Story
Coats > Movies
Jennifer Lopez is hustling for The Back-up Plan. Last night it was a visit to Letterman. In a really great black coat. She was also photographed out and about New York in a shorter belted one. Both gorgeous. She looks gorgeous. They’re pulling out the best JLo in the hopes of a big box office. But will it work? Well. Full Story
