Kimberly Stewart So they’re not barbies… Is this a bad thing? The new cover of Tatler features not generic looking genetic freak models, or photoshopped starlets, but 3 wickedly tarty daughters of rock royalty: Kimberly Stewart, Leah Wood, and Peaches Geldof.

Dumbass Old Bat off her rocker In what universe is Frank Langella more fascinating than Tina Fey??? Who? Frank Langella. Who? Exactly.

Famewhores Sunday Rose: just like Little Sci Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise were together a long time. You learn a lot over a decade.
