Paris shafted by grandpa

December 30th, 2007 · Comments

No, it’s not what you’re thinking. But I got your attention, didn’t I?
It’s been a while since we’ve featured Miss Hilton, but she’s kinda done everything worth mentioning already. Which, it seems, has been a continuing source of irritation for her grandfather, octogenarian tycoon Barron Hilton, who has decided to bequeath 97% of his $2.3 [...]

Mischa Barton goes down in style

December 29th, 2007 · Comments

Marissa Cooper would’ve been proud of Mischa’s recent antics. Babe-rific Barton (my latest uber-crush) got done in the wee hours for DUI, driving without a valid licence and possession of sticky green and a controlled substance (mug shot above). That’s an impressive rap sheet! Nice going, Coop! I was wondering why she never pitched at [...]

Mythbusters – Do hot chicks baff?

December 26th, 2007 · Comments

Not exactly new, but new to me: here’s an unaired clip from Mythbusters. It’s a great show, but there are so many great inappropriate myths that are just itching to be busted. Like the one I first heard in Standard 6 about the girl and the pig. Disgusting. But is it even physiologically possible? I [...]

Britney’s sister is pregnant

Awesome! And thanks to Kevin for reading my mind on this one! Britney Spears’s 16-year-old sister (on the right) is up the duff. It’s like a tasteless soap opera.
The cable channel [Nickelodeon] confirmed a report in the forthcoming edition of celebrity gossip magazine OK! that Jamie Lynn Spears is expecting a child.
A high school [...]

South Africa outlaws the underage PDA

December 17th, 2007 · Comments

The South African legislature has taken a gigantic progressive leap in battling the spiralling domestic crime rate with its new Sexual Offences Act, which was signed by Uncle Thabs last Thursday. Everyone will be very impressed to know that it is now illegal for teenagers to engage in consenual PDAs. Hey, believe it!

Another early Christmas present for me

December 17th, 2007 · Comments

Guitar Hero 3: Legends Of Rock. It arrived at the office today in a box big enough for a dishwasher, surrounded by bubble wrap. And I could swear it was glowing faintly when I first hauled it out.
This game totally lives up to its hype.
I’ve only just been able to put the little plastic [...]

FabCap gets the nod

December 17th, 2007 · Comments

“FabCap” – that’s what they called him on the news this morning. Not sure whether it’s going to catch, but no doubt he’ll be given loads of other silly names in the months to come.
Fabio Capello, formerly of AC Milan, Roma, Juventus and Real Madrid, will be formally introduced to the world as the [...]

Scott Weiland could do time

December 16th, 2007 · Comments

Ordinarily I wouldn’t waste my time with a story like this. Velvet Revolver and former Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland (centre above) was charged last week after crashing his car whilst under the influence of drugs a month ago. Weiland’s long history of substance (particularly heroin) abuse was instrumental in the collapse of STP [...]
