I both did, and did not, want to watch the pilot of CBS’s Elementary, which premiered last night at 10pm, but which has also been floating around the internet for a bit longer than that.

I’m sorry to report that Beyonce is not pregnant. OR IS SHE? Nah but she’s not. That’s what Jay-Z says. So she’s totally not pregnant, if you believe Jay-Z, Sultan of lies. [Us] Fun fact, I kind of adore Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott. I know!* I think they are clever and sweet and [...]

Contrary to the feelings of others who write for this site, I actually and factually can think of nothing I would rather do less than go spend an evening listening to Anne Hathaway sing to a small group of people, from a selection of Broadway hits. I would probably jump up and start being all [...]

Karmin Shouldn’t Be Rolling Stone’s Top Pick

No comments yetPosted in Prime GossipSep 26, 2012

Whatever you guys, I may not be quote unquote hip, groovy, or down with what the kids are into these days, which is admittedly contributing to my elder-person grumpiness, but I think it’s a great pile of loose stool that Karmin was called out as readers’ top female band by Rolling Stone.

Lindsay Lohan Went to the Hospital

Beyonce might be pregnant. Or maybe she had a steak. Maybe sweet potato fries, or maybe she drank a fizzy drink. The truth is no one knows.

Today is Friday, September 21st in the two thousand and twelfth year of our over-lord Kim Kardashian. It is also known as the day LMFAO* broke up. But because my mom is a children’s librarian, I will call it A Day No Gerbils Would Dance, as a YA homage to Mr. Robert Peck. If you [...]
