Smutty Surgery Megan Fox’s pretend face Megan Fox has been working. She has not been famewhoring, she has not been pap-baiting, and as far as celebrity famewhoring pap-baiting offenders go, she’s actually not the worst. You’ll note, it is possible to go long stretches without seeing Megan Fox “candids”. And it’s By Lainey • Apr 19, 2010 05:32 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Tilda is Eva We Need To Talk About Kevin is on my 25 Books list. Click here to view. Not sure if you can love a book like Kevin, but it certainly stays with you.

Movie Reviews and Previews Kick-Ass Finally. Kick-Ass opens tomorrow. I’d been jacked for Kick-Ass for several months as the online campaign began to gain momentum. I saw it at a press screening several weeks ago in an empty theatre with a handful of journalists and loved every minute. But I can’t By Lainey • Apr 15, 2010 07:32 am
Style She needs this Jennifer Lopez’s Louboutins, the song, wasn’t the hit she had hoped. And she’s had label problems. And despite her statement that she’s signing with Def Jam (has Def Jam even made that confirmation announcement yet?) there’s no doubt her status in the recording industry is By Lainey • Apr 15, 2010 04:55 am
Break Ups CarbFace is a whiny bitch Ryan Phillippe went on Howard Stern and went waaaahhhh today when asked about his failed relationships.

Movie Reviews and Previews Kate and... Colin? Ummmm... I worry. Kate Hudson, as you know, makes the same movie over and over again.

It was made for, like, only $15K and is receiving wonderful reviews across the board which proves it’s really always the story. The premise: they’ve been together for a long time, want to shake it up, and decide to take “days off” from By Lainey • Apr 09, 2010 10:59 am
Faux Gossip Dumbest idea ever Last year those UK tabloids kept reporting that Johnny Depp had been confirmed as The Riddler in the new Batman movie. At the time there wasn’t even a script ready for the new Batman movie. Needless to say the story was full of sh-t. As is this one. By Lainey • Apr 09, 2010 10:08 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Sex & the City ... in the desert So there’s a new Sex & the City 2 trailer. And thanks God there’s no mute Asian baby, but there’s also not much of a city.
