Parent Pimps 30 > 29 Feng shui speaking, 29 isn’t a great year. I had a terrible 29, and almost all my friends too. For me, in the lunar cycle, at 29 The Ox has to eat some sh-t. And I did. And so did my Porny last year. On her 29th birthday Tony By Lainey • Jul 12, 2010 05:23 am

Girly Throw Downs Dear Mel: you’re done It’s been two weeks of Mel Gibson leaks. Summary: he’s racist, he’s allegedly abusive, he allegedly beat the sh-t out of his baby mother Oksana Grigorieva, and they’re haggling over it in court, and there are tapes. She denies releasing the tapes. And so far there By Lainey • Jul 09, 2010 11:03 am
Media Manipulation The Jolie in DC: not very exciting Angelina Jolie and the cast of Salt were in Washington DC today for the junket. Salt opens on July 23. I hear tracking hasn’t been great.

Dev Patel I think we’re through At least until The Last Airbender has been purged. I am a fickle bitch, as you know, especially when it comes to quiver.
