• Top Three People Who Could Use a "Project Runway" Makeover

  Posted by Lindy Parker

  So it seems Heidi Klum has a few ideas about making Susan Boyle's look a little more stage-ready... Heidi Klum says Project Runway contestants and the world's most famous YouTube sensation make a pretty good match, too. "She could be a good challenge," Klum told me last night at a party to launch the back plates she's designed for the LG Rumor2 mobile phones. "Maybe she could be on season seven." (E! Online) It's probably no secret that we're against this plan, mostly because we like to limit our Susan Boyle intake to nil, but it did start us thinking about people on whose look we'd like to see get a little re-vamp...

• Gilles Marini Sends A "Sex and The City" Shout Out To Sarah Jessica Parker

  Posted by Olivia Purnell

  Dancing With the Stars sexpot Gilles Marini has so many lovely attributes. First, his pectoral/ab game is really serious. We became aquainted with said washboard situation during his shirtless turn in the Sex and The City movie. Second, he has some pretty amazing Latin dance moves. He and Cheryl Burke are kinda tearing it up on DWTS. In addition to his ridiculous torso and dance floor prowess, Gilles is also a sweetie pie. Upon hearing the good news about Sarah Jessica's coming twins, Gilles simply raved about Sarah Jessica Parker's attributes as an actress and a mom. That's kind of him, but does Gilles know SJP could care less about him? Let's compare thier comments shall we?   Read More... + DIGG + DEL.ICIO.US + REDDIT Posted Apr 30 2009, 02:28 PM with no comments Filed under: Sex and the City, Sarah Jessica Parker, Gilles Marini

  Dear Matt Giraud, OMG, we nearly had a heart attack.  When it got down to you and Adam in the bottom two, we seriously had a moment of panic unparalleled in our previous Idol watching.  Adam was this close to going home!  Not that we don't love you Matt, but we sort of feel like since you were already voted off once, every week you lasted after the judges saved you is just a bonus anyway...

• "The Colbert Report": Many Conservatives Don't Get That It's Satire [VIDEO]

  Posted by Jake Kalish

  According to a new study by three Ohio State professors, published in The International Journal Of Press/Politics, both conservatives and liberals find Stephen Colbert funny - but conservatives are much more likely to believe he means what he says and that he genuinely dislikes liberalism. Wow. Satire can be difficult, but this one shouldn't be so tough to figure out, boys and girls. Take a look at these findings. And if you're still not sure, take a look at then-President Bush's real-time "I will have you murdered" reaction to Stephen Colbert's speech at the White House Correspondent's Dinner in 2006...   Read More... + DIGG + DEL.ICIO.US + REDDIT Posted Apr 30 2009, 10:22 AM with no comments Filed under: Comedy Central, Stephen Colbert, satire, President Bush, conservatives, studies, liberals

  We're counting down to the final three episodes of Fringe's first season and we're sort of bummed that one of the final episodes would skimp so much on the conspiracy arc, but whatevs, we've got two more episodes left and we can't wait. Executive producer Roberto Orci is teasing us with promises of an explosive finale. "We were saving so many juicy secrets for years and years, and we're actually going to stick a bunch of them in the finale. That may be the worst idea ever, but we're doing it."

• Bea Arthur Roasted Pam Anderson! [VIDEO]

  Posted by Olivia Purnell

  Bea Arthur is proabably best known for her primetime comedy.  From Maude to Golden Girls, there's no question about it, this funny lady was a class act. But Bea also knew how to work blue.  In 2005, Bea took part in Comedy Central's Roast of Pam Anderson. During her turn at the microphone, the former Dorothy read from Pamela Anderson's literary debut, a novel entitled Star. Was there ever better material for a Golden Girl? Click through to see Bea skillfully narrate how to trade handjobs for a mountain bike, and, you know, anal sex advice.  Yes, boys and girls, this is probably NSFW.

• Is "Gossip Girl" Star Ed Westwick The Next James Bond? [PHOTO]

  Is the world ready for Bass as Bond?  Maybe if it was a new CW drama about Bond during his teen years -- a Smallville-ish take on the misspent youth of 007 called something like "Bond Beginnings."  Yikes.  We're fairly certain that's not what Ed Westwick had in mind when he told Interview Magazine he was gunning for the role.  Daniel Craig better watch his back...

  We feel like the American Idol producers are resting a little easier now that there's only five contestants left standing, and they don't have to worry as much about going over time.
