			<title><![CDATA[ Ali Lohan 'Makes It Delicious' In Televised Tryout For Vaunted Porn Producer [Ali Lohan] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><script type="text/javascript"> newVideoPlayer("/aliporn_def.flv", 506, 423,""); </script>It’s always a hoot when you show up to an audition thinking you’re just trying out for another <a href="http://defamer.com/5018506/ali-lohan-mere-inches-away-from-her-big-break-in-worst-movie-ever-made-remake">straight-to-DVD horror remake</a>, only to find out afterwards that you just emoted all your talents in front of a <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2008/07/29/ali-lohan-to-porn-legend-put-me-in-your-flick/">titan of the porn industry</a>. In yet another display of complete parental ignorance, Dina Lohan’s decision to send Lindsay-wannabe Ali on a journey to score a part in <i>Troll</i> in this weekend’s <a href="http://defamer.com/5030263/dina-lohan-mother-of-the-century-ali-is-a-little-scared-because-shes-meeting-adults">season finale of <i>Living Lohan</i></a> was kind of equivalent to sending your 14-year old daughter on a read-through of <i>Bun Busters 13</i> or <i>Breast Wishes 15</i>. Yes, Ali’s eager efforts to make it big in showbiz has officially included a smiley “nerve-wracking” experience reciting classic lines like “Ratburgers!” in front of the multi-colored hair piece-topped Peter Davy, responsible for discovering <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houston_(porn_star)">gangbang queen Houston</a>, among many other hardcore accomplishments. The clip, including Ali's stomach-tightening attempt to impress the porn industry professionals, after the jump.</p> <p>We, just like most of you, watched the Sunday finale of Dina’s pet project somewhat naïvely, unsuspecting of any cameos by canonized porn producers or guest spots made by directors intending on using Ali’s potential role into a “private instruction” on how to turn an otherwise innocuous ‘80s film remake into a “delicious” and sexy flick made magical by “people in China.” While the <i>Troll</i> director’s instructions guide Ali through much of the embarrassing audition, we have a sneaking suspicion that Davy’s presence is to blame for the wee Lohan’s need to imitate the “acrobatic” lead’s performance as Eunice, the “guardian against dark magic,” by imagining the casting room’s crew of greasy-haired Skinematic and Blowtime veterans are “really big movie people.” Typically, we await tomorrow, when Dina <a href="http://defamer.com/5030244/for-first-time-ever-lindsay-lohan-not-rushed-to-hospital-sam-ronson-not-a-bitch">releases a statement</a> denying Ali was ever in such a room whatsoever, and that any footage documenting the fact that she was were created by vicious haters is pure “bull doodie.”</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.tmz.com/2008/07/29/ali-lohan-to-porn-legend-put-me-in-your-flick/">ALI LOHAN TO PORN LEGEND: PUT ME IN YOUR FLICK!</a> [TMZ]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ John Mayer And Josh Brolin Shear Their Locks, But Does A Buzz Cut Always Clean Up A Star's Image? [John Mayer] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_buzzcuts.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Ah, the buzz cut: that sometimes-risky, sometimes-successful ‘do usually sported by male celebrities when it's required for a role in a military/secret agent/futuristic film or because they need a quick way to change their public image. But no matter what their reasons are for taking the razor to the scalp, the look has roughly a 50/50 chance of working. Two of the most recent stars to shave it all off are <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1039485/Style-like-Beckham-Rocker-John-Mayer-copies-Davids-look.html">Jennifer Aniston arm candy John Mayer</a> and <a href="http://defamer.com/398488/josh-brolin-jeffrey-wright-hauled-off-by-cops-in-lifelike-w-publicity-coup">new member</a> of the <a href="http://defamer.com/399024/even-i-draw-the-line-at-hitting-my-own-mother-says-outraged-joker-about-recent-christian-bale-arrest">Movie Press-Generating Lawbreakers’ Club</a> Josh Brolin, and while Mayer irritatingly manages to pull the look off despite his big <s>head</s> ego, Brolin’s <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/23/josh-brolin-im-in-a-bad-p_n_114550.html">close cut</a> reveals a bit too much skin. Which immediately made us reminisce on buzz cuts of the past, both the bad (Hey, Jude), the good (pre-Scientology Tommy C.), and the very ugly (Attack Of The Killer Umbrella-Bearers):</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/cruise_pitt_timberlake_buzzcuts.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/cruise_pitt_timberlake_buzzcuts.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a><br> <b>Buzz Cuts Gone Good:</b><br> Though they both donned <a href="http://www.filmreference.com/images/sjff_03_img1279.jpg">powder-dusted ponytails</a> together in <i>Interview With The Vampire</i>, both Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt's best look to date is the crop cut. Think Cruise in all the <i>MI</i> films as opposed to his <a href="http://defamer.com/5023476/tom-cruises-comeback-film-a-village-people-biopic-starring-tom-cruise-in-every-role">Village People allusion</a> in <i>Magnolia</i>, or Brad in all the <i>Ocean's</i> movies vs. <a href="http://defamer.com/5008912/top-five-most-cringeworthy-facial-hair-moments-in-cinematic-history">that caveman look</a> we never even got to see on the big screen for <i>The Fountain</i>. And for all his demerits, from daring to <a href="http://defamer.com/5009423/justin-timberlake-thinks-madge-or-whatever-she-calls-herself-isnt-nearly-as-hip-as-he-is">put down Madonna</a> to failing to ever <a href="http://defamer.com/367609/justin-timberlake-is-only-funny-when-he-puts-his-dick-in-a-box">make us laugh</a>, Justin Timberlake's sole redeeming attribute is his near-perfection of the style.</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/jake_jude_britney_buzzcut.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/jake_jude_britney_buzzcut.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a><br> <b>Buzz Cuts Gone Bad:</b><br> We happen to be among the few remaining females still ignoring all those silly gay rumors and clinging to Jake Gyllenhaal's heterosexual plausibility. But every crush reaches a standstill at some point, and re: Jake, that point was officially reached courtesy of <i>Jarhead</i>, which required The Jake to feign military obedience and cut it all off. Despite a yearning to see as much of Jake's skin as possible, we didn't appreciate said skin being exposed so plentifully on his scalp. And anyone besides us feverishly following the <a href="http://defamer.com/380411/jude-law-in-bitter-struggle-to-save-his-hair">depressingly rapid decrease</a> in blooming hair on Jude Law's curiously peaked head knows a buzz cut hasn't resulted in the best aesthetic for the <a href="http://defamer.com/5010003/jude-law-and-kimberly-stewart-drown-sorrows-in-each-others-pants">rock heiress-snogging</a> star. Finally, we know she's not technically a male celebrity, but no one proved just how wrong a buzz can look than Britney Spears and her infamous <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/britney-spears/newly-bald-britney-spears-makes-tragically-unfashionable-cry-for-help-in-the-valley-237628.php">self-shearing</a>.</p> <p>[Photo Credit: Getty Images, <a href="http://www.celebritydetails.com/pics/pitt_brad/buzz_cut.jpg">Celebrity Details</a>, <a href="http://www.beauty-and-the-bath.com/image-files/tom-cruise-mens-buzz-cut_fs.jpg">Beauty And The Bath</a>, <a href="http://www.darkhorizons.com/news04/alpha2.jpg">Dark Horizons</a>, <a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2008/03/britney-spears-bald-400a030207.jpg">All Things D</a> and <a href="http://dyli.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/jude-law.jpg">Dyli.org</a>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1039485/Style-like-Beckham-Rocker-John-Mayer-copies-Davids-look.html">STYLE IT LIKE BECKHAM: ROCKER JOHN MAYER COPIES DAVID'S LOOK</a> [Daily Mail]</li> <li><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/23/josh-brolin-im-in-a-bad-p_n_114550.html">JOSH BROLIN: I'M 'IN A BAD PREDICAMENT RIGHT NOW'</a> [HuffPo]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Woody Harrelson Vs. Kate Hudson: Why They Just Can't Get Along [Woody Harrelson] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_woody_kate_owen.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Considering the free-lovin’, liberal personalities of two <a href="http://defamer.com/5021494/kate-hudson-goldie-hawn-and-some-homeless-guy-who-looks-like-lance-armstrong-all-went-to-lunch">undergarments-fearing</a> stars like Woody Harrelson and Kate Hudson, we were a bit surprised to hear rumors that Woody is “relieved” and happy now that Kate is out of BFF Owen Wilson’s love life for good. <a href="http://janetcharltonshollywood.com/gossip/owen_wilson/woody_harrelson_is_delighted_that_owen_wilson_and_kate_hudson_are_history_20080728.php">Janet Charlton is reporting</a> that “Woody and Kate NEVER got along, but they put aside their differences for Owen...[Woody] never thought she was the right girl for him.” So why would these two hippie dippy celebs find it so hard to get along? After a bit of digging, we came up with three theories, from Woody’s big-screen debut alongside Goldie Hawn, to the <a href="http://defamer.com/376856/owen-wilson-and-woody-harrelson-go-for-a-swim-minus-one-set-of-swim-trunks">skinny-dipper</a>’s habit of setting Owen up with mystery blondes while he and Kate were still together:</p> <p><b>1. Woody Was Owen's Personal Madam</b>: Back in March 2007, when Owen and Kate were still in Phase One of their double act of a relationship, Wilson reportedly went on a Hawaiian vacation with his partner in paparazzi-bashing crime Harrelson, who owns a crash pad on the island. And the first sign of trouble in paradise came when Wilson was said to be hooking up with a Kate-lookalike <a href="http://www.celebitchy.com/3460/owen_wilson_and_kate_hudson_are_having_trouble/">coincidentally introduced to him</a> in Hawaii by the Woodster.</p> <p><b>2. Woody's Bare Butt Possibly More Scrumptious Than Kate's</b>: And who can forget the, well, unforgettable sight of Harrelson's own set of natural born relationship-killers: the <a href="http://defamer.com/376856/owen-wilson-and-woody-harrelson-go-for-a-swim-minus-one-set-of-swim-trunks">buns seen 'round the world</a> while skinny-dipping with Wilson on a mid-<i>Marley And Me</i>, mid-<em>Kate & Owen: The Sequel</em> jaunt to Miami. Even Kate herself has pointed out her <a href="http://defamer.com/5015236/kate-hudson-teaches-boobies-obsessed-son-why-everyones-always-rubbing-up-against-each-other">own lack of assets</a>, and no matter how straight the Wilson is, who wouldn't be distracted from their current paramour's figure when face-to-ass with that behind?</p> <p><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/wildcats.jpg" class="right"><b>3. <i>Wildcats</i></b>: Speaking of Woody's behind, both it and he made their film debut in the 1986 Goldie Hawn vehicle <i>Wildcats</i>, where Harrelson played Krushinski, the token dumb football player to Goldie's token ironic Chick Who "Gets" Sports role (see also: <i>Bend It Like Beckham</i>, <i>A League Of Their Own</i> or <i>Blue Crush</i>). As the <i>NY Times</i> noted in <a href="http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9A0DE1DF1630F937A25751C0A960948260">their review</a>, this was "very much Miss Hawn's movie," the trailer <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_rGfgTLonU">speaks for itself</a> when it comes to showing how Kate's mom dominated gum-chewing Woody's first chance to show his stuff, and despite its memorable spot in '80s cult classic sports movies, the film holds a <a href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/wildcats/">15% Fresh rating</a> at Rotten Tomatoes. Whether or not Woody blames his dim debut on The Family is just a thought, but anyone as proud of their backside as he is might be miffed that its first shot at stardom was overshadowed by Goldie and her "sunny," "sexism-attuned" performance.</p> <p>[Photo Credits: <a href="http://celebpulp.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/kate_hudson_owen_wilson.jpg">Celeb Pulp</a>, <a href="http://www.ecorazzi.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/woody.jpg">Ecorazzi</a>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://janetcharltonshollywood.com/gossip/owen_wilson/woody_harrelson_is_delighted_that_owen_wilson_and_kate_hudson_are_history_20080728.php">WOODY HARRELSON IS DELIGHTED THAT OWEN WILSON AND KATE HUDSON ARE HISTORY</a> [Janet Charlton's Hollywood]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Career Paths [Blake Lively] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/340x_pantsthenandnow.jpg" class="left image340" width="340" />Only three years ago, Blake Lively was just That Blonde Girl from <i>The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants</i>, and America Ferrera was just the Token Dorky Sidekick. Alexis Bledel and Amber Tamblyn, on the other hand, were bonafide TV stars. My, how things have changed. With the film's sequel debuting next month, we take a look at how each of the leading ladies has done career-wise since the original <a href="http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=travelingpants.htm">racked up nearly $40MM</a> at the box office in 2005. While there’s a bit of bad news for the original's biggest stars, there’s an alternate way of looking at this role reversal: any actress’ status as the perennial “buddy” can obviously change with one little show that could.</p> <p><b>Blake Lively/Bridget</b>: With only one credit behind her before the first <i>Pants</i>, 1998’s <i>Sandman</i>, Lively got her big break as Bridget the jock. Even though no one knew who she was at the time, she built her buzz by appearing in a few cheesy movies like the Justin Long vehicle <i>Accepted</i>. But now, thanks to <i>Gossip Girl</i> and its sultry appeal (<a href="http://defamer.com/5028841/why-the-racy-new-ad-campaign-for-gossip-girl-will-backfire">ratings be damned!</a>), Lively is arguably the boldest name on the sequel’s marquee.</p> <p><b>America Ferrera/Carmen</b>: Cast as the not-so-pretty one who most magically fit into the same jans all four girls kept handing off, America is obviously the biggest success story when it comes to acting cred (an Emmy), ratings (<i>Ugly Betty</i>), and general public appeal (we don’t even want to think about counting how many magazine covers with the hed “America The Beautiful!” she’s appeared on in the last two years).</p> <p><b>Amber Tamblyn/Tibby</b>: Having blown away TV critics as the lead in <i>Joan of Arcadia</i> the same year <i>Pants</i> came out (and racking up Golden Globe and Emmy noms along the way), Tamblyn was a shiny bright new fixture on the circuit. But the only notable film Tamblyn has appeared in since? <i>The Grudge 2</i>. Oops. The only reason we can think of for Amber’s dimming star? Michelle Trachtenberg. Sort of the more telegenic, tabloid-friendly version of Tamblyn, with all sorts of Pete Wentz/Ashlee Simpson sloppiness to keep the kids entertained.</p> <p><b>Alexis Bledel/Lena</b>: <i>Pants</i> came out at the height of <i>Gilmore Girls</i>’ gooey success, just before new writers took over and turned the show into an even faster-paced linguistic mess of confusion. And Bledel was the biggest draw among all four, cast as the “pretty” one with the heftiest romantic plotline and most cinematic backdrop (finding love in Greece). But the only upcoming flick on Bledel’s radar at the moment &mdash; aside from <i>Pants 2</i> &mdash; is <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1142433/">a comedy with Michael Keaton</a> (which would've been a great gig in the late 80s, but today? Not so much). And the last time we saw her out and about was at the 2006 fashion shows alongside then-boyfriend Milo Ventimiglia &mdash; while Milo’s struck gold in <i>Heroes</i>, Alexis has yet to find a similarly cozy rebound gig.</p> <p>[<i>Photo credits: Getty</i>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1039478/Ugly-Bettys-America-Ferrera-shows-pretty-New-York-premiere.html">UGLY BETTY'S AMERICA FERRERA SHOWS HER PRETTY SIDE AT NEW YORK PREMIERE</a> [Daily Mail]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Dina Lohan, Mother Of The Century: ‘Ali Is A Little Scared Because She’s Meeting Adults’ [Living Lohan] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><script type="text/javascript"> newVideoPlayer("/dina8_def.flv", 506, 423,""); </script>We don’t know whether to cry tears of sadness or sweet relief, but last night brought us the heartbreaking season finale of Dina Lohan’s <a href="http://defamer.com/363780/dina-lohans-dreadful-dreams-come-true-now-that-living-lohan-reality-show-gets-picked-up">dream come true</a>: the Lindsay-free joy ride through the one of the most frightening TV family’s household that was <i>Living Lohan</i>. And despite all Dina’s efforts to convince us we should be happy for little 14-year old Ali and her double whammy of career success stories featured in this episode, the last few months have taught us that a <a href="http://defamer.com/5018506/ali-lohan-mere-inches-away-from-her-big-break-in-worst-movie-ever-made-remake">role in the <i>Troll</i></a> remake and a single that makes our ears bleed do not necessarily a superstar make. But, as we’ve learned throughout the season, no matter how small these sad triumphs, if it weren’t for Dina and her never-ending flow of parental lessons, Ali would still just be some normal teenager allowed to go to the mall with friends and shop, instead of Dina's way of remaining the Mother Of The Century:</p> <p><b>1) Guarantee Daughter Flops An Audition By Giving Her The Script The Day Before!</b> As we noted a while back, Ali is reportedly slated to appear in the <a href="http://defamer.com/5018506/ali-lohan-mere-inches-away-from-her-big-break-in-worst-movie-ever-made-remake">“Worst Movie Ever Made,”</a> a remake of cheap horror dramedy <i>Troll</i>. And though it’s quite obvious to everyone else that the producers are intent on casting a Lohan to get their movie some publicity, Dina manages to make the situation as difficult as possible by handing her the script one day before her audition. But we can’t really argue with this nugget of wisdom: “If you’re a really good director, you will know and you will see if someone has talent whether they know the lines or don’t know the lines.”</p> <p><b>2) Show Support During Said Audition By Telling Daughter, "You Don’t Need Mommy"!</b> After noting how scary it can be for someone like Ali, who doesn’t exactly have the most mature parents in the world, to meet real-live “adults,” Dina responds to her tween’s meager request for assistance during the meeting with the flick’s director by telling her, “You don’t need mommy.” Way to bolster her chances for an inevitable estrangement <a href="http://defamer.com/5011638/lindsay-lohan-and-samantha-ronson-officially-make-lesbianism-chic">“just like Lindsay!”</a></p> <p>And that's a wrap! While we have yet to learn whether or not they'll be a Season Two of <i>Living Lohan</i>, one thing is certain &mdash; whether or not Ali succeeds in her career, Dina will surely find a way to continue to keep her name in the news. After all, isn't that what living Lohan is all about?</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.eonline.com/on/shows/livinglohan/index.jsp">LIVING LOHAN</a> [E!]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ For First Time Ever, Lindsay Lohan Not Rushed To Hospital, Sam Ronson Not A Bitch [Lindsay Lohan] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/lohanthumb_01.jpg" align="left" hspace="4" vspace="2">Just when things seemed to be coming up roses for Lindsay Lohan, none other than (surprise!) <a href="http://defamer.com/5027520/dina-lohan-mother-of-the-century-i-now-realize-ive-been-punkd-by-an-11+year-old">Mother of the Century</a> Dina has jumped on the chance to turn two otherwise non-items into full-out scandals reminiscent of Lohan’s <a href="http://defamer.com/5024975/lindsay-lohans-new-fashion-line-handily-equipped-with-kneepads-for-fellow-bj-queens">cokepants</a> days. First, reports surfaced that her <a href="http://defamer.com/5015006/three-simple-rules-for-getting-lindsay-lohan-to-work-on-time">cigarette-</a> and <a href="http://defamer.com/5008881/lindsay-lohan-samantha-ronson-and-the-case-of-the-mystery-hickey">hickey</a>-delivery girl Sam Ronson refused to play vocally challenged Ali Lohan’s new single at a DJ’ing gig last week because she felt the song was <a href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/07272008/gossip/pagesix/lo_down_sam_121796.htm">“really bad.”</a> Not exactly breaking news, right? Thanks to Dina and <i>Living Lohan</i>, we already know <a href="http://defamer.com/5020873/dina-lohan-mother-of-the-century-hot-is-not-in-my-vocabulary">anything Ali squeaks out</a> won’t turn her into the next Whitney Houston (or even the next Lindsay). Then, over the weekend, <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/27/2008-07-27_lindsay_lohans_fine_after_latenight_bike.html">TMZ reported</a> that Lohan and Ronson were victims of a hit-and-run bicyclist while taking an innocent walk home after a night out in New York, ending with Lohan in the hospital. And so what? It’s not like Lohan was the hitter-and-runner, and any hospital stay without the phrases “asthma attack” or “fainting spell” attached to it is fine by us. But courtesy of both Michael Lohan and Dina's consistently yapping mouths, we will know have the pleasure of associating both stories with the phrase, “bull doodie”:</p> <p>As TMZ <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2008/07/26/lindsay-lohan-run-down-by-a-bike/">claimed</a> on Saturday, Lohan was driven to a local NYC hospital after the lovey dovey lesbian duo were out late Friday night and a wayward biker struck the seemingly soberific star. After her both her rep confirmed the hospital stay to TMZ, and a hospital source stated the <a href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/07282008/news/regionalnews/injured_lindsay_is_loh_kay_121876.htm">same details</a> to the <i>NY Post</i>, the wonderful beacon of maternal guidance that is Dina tells the <i>Post</i> today that the entire story is "bull doodie." And! Even Michael Lohan, surely the runner-up for Long Island's <a href="http://defamer.com/388276/dina-lohan-is-this-years-most-outstanding-mother-says-cleavage+bearing-long-island-mommy-cult">Father Of The Year</a> trophy, chipped in to assure the same paper that Lohan texted him over the weekend to say she was "fine, Daddy." Hey, who needs hospital sources and reps when you've got parents like that to bring the truth forward with oh-so-believable rebuttals?</p> <p>As for poor Ali, the <i>Post</i> reported over the weekend that notoriously smug (when it comes to musical taste) girlfriend Ronson had the nerve to turn down Dina's request to play the tween hack's new single at a NYC party &mdash; but today, Ronson reportedly <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20215236,00.html">took to her MySpace page</a> to shoot down the rumors, calling the deafening ditty a "fucking great pop song." Which is sweet, until you realize that Ronson doesn't actually <a href="http://www.myspace.com/samantharonson"><i>like</i></a> pop songs &mdash; though we'd instinctively suspect Dina of instructing <a href="http://defamer.com/5027520/dina-lohan-mother-of-the-century-i-now-realize-ive-been-punkd-by-an-11+year-old">child-for-hire</a> Cody to bust into Ronson's blog and write the entry himself, we prefer giving our favorite scissor-kicking couple the benefit of the doubt here. Maybe Lindsay does call Michael "Daddy." Maybe Ronson does love Ali's music. And maybe, just maybe, "bull doodie" is the new "crack is whack." </p> <p><ul><li><a href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/07272008/gossip/pagesix/lo_down_sam_121796.htm">LO-DOWN SAM</a> [NYP]</li><li><a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20215236,00.html">SAMANTHA RONSON: ALI LOHAN SINGLE IS 'GREAT'</a> [People]</li><li><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/27/2008-07-27_lindsay_lohans_fine_after_latenight_bike.html">LINDSAY LOHAN'S 'FINE' AFTER LATE-NIGHT BIKE HIT</a> [NYDN]</li><li><a href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/07282008/news/regionalnews/injured_lindsay_is_loh_kay_121876.htm">PARENTS DENY LINDSAY LOHAN INJURY STORY</a> [NYP]</li></ul></p> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Condom Company Recruits Miley Cyrus As Another Make-Out Session Is Caught On Camera [Miley Cyrus] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_mileythumb_01.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Astonishing as it is, Miley Cyrus &mdash; the little tween queen of<a href="http://defamer.com/5024904/why-lindsay-lohan-is-to-blame-for-miley-cyrus-latest-nude-photo-scandal">sexy “private” pictures</a> that keep somehow keep becoming public &mdash; is currently at the center of three separate scandalous stories. Last week, the 15-year old Jesus-loving and <a href="http://defamer.com/5010763/tarnished-tween-queen-miley-cyrus-caught-eating-her-clothes-off">shirt-eating</a> mini-millionaire not only accidentally (of course!) found herself the victim of an iPhone hacker who published naughty wet t-shirt shower photos of her on the web, in addition to being the provacateur of a <a href="http://defamer.com/5029296/miley-cyrus-vs-selena-gomez-mean-girls-comes-to-life-in-scheisty-video-attack">YouTube revenge video</a> against Disney rival Selena Gomez. But there is so much more! Not only has Miley instructed her publicist to apologize for her role in said video, but the belly-baring icon of all young Christians has just been targeted as Lifestyles Condoms’ newest spokeswoman because a brand rep feels she’s “relatable to the afflicted set,” and another clever blogger has unveiled yet another borderline-scandalous series of photos featuring the husky-voiced star getting hot and heavy with <i>yet another</i> ex-boyfriend &mdash; and we can’t help noticing just how well-timed this particular “leak” is with regard to enemy Gomez’ recent hook-up to that man-boy in the middle of their rift, Nick Jonas:</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/mileybigkiss_02.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/mileybigkiss_02.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a><br> Unlike <a href="http://defamer.com/5011496/those-highly+anticipated-miley-cyrus-first-kiss-photos-worth-150k-yeah-we-got-em-already">those many photos</a> of Miley kissing recently stolen ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas, Hilary Duff and some rando old man, Cyrus was <a href="http://celebslam.celebuzz.com/more-miley-cyrus-photos-leak/">mysteriously photographed</a> in a series of heavy lip-locks with the not-so-famous fellow crooner Thomas Sturges this month, a little-known singer who is said to be another ex of the apparently quite experienced Miley. We don't know about you, but when we were 15, we were still trying to get the tall blond boy who doodled cartoons during chem lab to at least lock eyes with us just once, let alone come within tongue-twisting distance. But luckily for Miley, all these presumably distressing photo leaks have landed her a potentially lucrative <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/27/2008-07-27_condom_maker_seeks_endorsement_deal_with.html">spokesperson job offer</a> for Lifestyles Condoms, who claim her virgin-esque image is ideal as an "influential" face for the brand. Plus, they're offering the uber-mature tween a lifetime supply, "for when the time is right." Which, we have to assume, was approximately one year ago. The silver lining? Miley is <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,392042,00.html">"super sorry"</a> about ripping rival Selena Gomez apart on YouTube! Because, like, "Elvis said imitation is the greatest form of flattery!" And, like, Miley is way richer than Elvis and way more important, so quoting him quoting an <a href="http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/c/charlescal203963.html">18th century writer</a> sounds way smart and stuff!</p> <p>[<i>Photo credits: Oceanup.com via <a href="http://celebslam.celebuzz.com/more-miley-cyrus-photos-leak/">Celebslam</a></i>]</p> <ul> <li><a hef="http://celebslam.celebuzz.com/more-miley-cyrus-photos-leak/">MORE MILEY CYRUS PHOTO LEAKS</a> [CelebSlams]</li> <li><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,392042,00.html">MILEY CYRUS SORRY FOR MOCKING SELENA GOMEZ IN YOUTUBE VIDEO</a> [Fox News]</li> <li><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/27/2008-07-27_condom_maker_seeks_endorsement_deal_with.html">CONDOM MAKER SEEKS ENDORSEMENT DEAL WITH MILEY CYRUS</a> [NYDN]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Madonna Takes Needle To Gerard Butler's 'Little Bottom', Only Succeeds In Making Him 'Severely Ill' [Madonna] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/madgerthu.jpg" align="left" hspace="4" vspace="2">Madonna broke into the public consciousness not because of her vocal talents, but because of her catchy tunes, dance fever, and suggestively nymphomaniac tendencies. But now, the nearly-50-year old has finally morphed into the modern day Britney Spears: she's forcing unwilling male stars to pull down their pants, she's making headlines mainly due to <a href="http://defamer.com/5019239/three-reasons-why-madonna-will-never-have-incredible-sex-with-guy-ritchie-again">a messy divorce</a>, <a href="http://defamer.com/397886/the-defamer-guide-to-the-whole-madonna--a+rod&mdash;lenny-kravitz-situation">rumored affairs</a> and plastic surgery rumors. Just as the British tabs begin to accuse the <a href="http://defamer.com/356729/madonnas-new-film-helps-viewers-get-in-touch-with-their-inner-slut">failed director/actress</a> of going under a very sharp knife, it seems as though the exercise addict has used her seduction technique of shooting B-12 shots into hunky acquaintances’ butts. But this time around, unlike the soaring success story that was <a href="http://defamer.com/366344/how-to-get-justin-timberlake-naked-a-bedtime-story-by-madonna">Justin Timberlake’s energizing vitamin-equipped ass</a>, her second attempt on quasi-ex-husband Guy Ritchie’s newest leading man, Gerard Butler, left the poor man’s Clive Owen “severely ill.” Butler’s tale of Madge’s terrorist attack on his “little bum,” plus the allegations being made about how the extremes the <a href="http://defamer.com/5021099/flacks-denial-pretty-much-confirms-madonna-and-a+rod-are-doing-it">Yankee doodler</a>’s “grueling” beauty regime have affected her oddly sharp cheekbones and “popping veins,” after the jump.</p> <p><a href="http://defamer.com/387784/cameron-diaz-spotted-leaving-party-with-second-most-famous-entourage-cast-member">Cameron Diaz' ex</a> and <i>3000</i> star Gerard Butler (we keep trying to forget that we first noticed him in <i>Phantom Of The Opera</i> even though every time we see his now-rugged face we can't help picturing him over-earnestly busting out "Music Of The Night") is fortunate enough to be starring in Ritchie's upcoming <i>Rocknrolla</i>, which means he was unfortunate enough to <a href="http://www.starpulse.com/news/index.php/2008/07/27/gerard_butler_got_sick_after_madonna_gav">run into Madge</a> at some point during filming. And as we learned months ago, the Ritchie groupie is always equipped with a baggie filled with needles filled to the brim with Lindsay Lohan's favorite <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/lindsay-lohan/lindsay-lohan-comes-clean-sort-of-146424.php">"asthma attack" cure</a>, Vitamin B-12. But according to Butler, the normally healthy kick to the ass advertised extensively be Madonna's most <a href="http://defamer.com/5009423/justin-timberlake-thinks-madge-or-whatever-she-calls-herself-isnt-nearly-as-hip-as-he-is">fickle supporter/critic</a> Justin Timberlake, "the injection failed to boost Butler's immune system - and left him feeling worse than before." </p> <p>Even more embarrassing for Madge, Butler describes her as "the nurse" on set. Meaning she's gone from platinum singer to failed director to failed on-set medical assistant. Frankly we don't blame her if she <i>did</i> get some "filler in her cheeks," as a <i>Daily Mail</i> plastic surgery <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1038955/Have-age-stress-launched-shocking-attack-Madonnas-face.html">believes</a>. A little nip and tuck, which, in Madonna's case, doesn't look as horrific as the tab makes it out to be, can go a long way in boosting one's self-esteem. Just look at <a href="http://defamer.com/367501/british-press-continues-its-assault-against-celebrity-body-parts-sinks-its-claws-into-bat-face">Bat Face</a> victim Nicole Kidman &mdash; it's almost like she <i>never</i> looks unhappy, even when she's so bored by her husband's music that she <a href="http://defamer.com/370925/all-the-excitement-and-thrill-of-watching-keith-urban-perform-puts-nicole-kidman-right-to-sleep">nods out</a> for a while! </p> <p>[<i>Photo credits: Splash</i>]</p> <p><ul><li><a href="http://www.starpulse.com/news/index.php/2008/07/27/gerard_butler_got_sick_after_madonna_gav">GERARD BUTLER GOT SICK AFTER MADONNA GAVE HIM SHOT IN THE BUTT</a> [Starpulse]<li><li><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1038955/Have-age-stress-launched-shocking-attack-Madonnas-face.html">HAVE AGE AND STRESS LAUNCHED SHOCKING ATTACK ON MADONNA'S FACE?</a> [Daily Mail]</li><ul></p></ul></ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ If It Weren't For Those Silly No-Smoking, No-Cursing Rules, Katherine Heigl Would Totally Go Mormon [Katherine Heigl] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_heiglthu.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Katherine Heigl has never failed to shock us, whether she’s yapping about her <a href="http://defamer.com/376208/katherine-heigl-doesnt-understand-why-any-guy-gay-or-straight-wouldnt-want-her">highly tuned gaydar</a> or wearing dresses made out of <a href="http://defamer.com/375988/joshua-your-mother-is-never-allowed-to-buy-me-anything-again-ever"><i>The Darjeeling Limited</i>'s costume leftovers</a>. But her latest comments on her childhood spent growing up Mormon suggest that, on top of burning Emasculated Husband Joshua Kelley’s <a href="http://defamer.com/5020051/joshua-kelley-just-wont-shut-up-about-curling-katherine-heigls-hair">pinky finger</a> and <a href="http://defamer.com/374347/">forcing him to wait</a> until the very second her biological clock beeps “Procreate!” to have kids, she may even make the poor guy raise said kids <i>Big Love</i>-style. As she recently <a href="http://www.starmagazine.com/katherine_heigl_mormon_again/news/14404">told</a> a British tab:<br></p> <blockquote>“I'm not as disciplined about it was I once was, but I hope to find my way back as I get older and a little less selfish...I'm ashamed to say that I've just got very lazy about it. I satisfy my vices instead of fighting them.”</blockquote> <p>And this is certainly not the first time <a href="http://defamer.com/5015546/katherine-heigl-chases-oscar-gold-while-stepping-on-those-that-made-her-ascent-possible">Hollywood Public Enemy</a> Heigl has spoken out about her “support” of the Church. A colorful collection of quotes she’s given throughout the years on the Mormon religion, after the jump:</p> <p><b>On Her Mostly Mormon Friends</b>:<br> <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/2007-05-20-katherine-heigl_N.htm"><i>USA Today</i></a>, 2007:</p> <blockquote> <p>"I haven't [practiced] since I was about 19 or 20, when I moved to L.A. and was working a lot. I couldn't find a ward I was comfortable in. It kind of petered out mostly because of that. My good friends are Mormon, some of the best people I know."</p> </blockquote> <p><b>On Raising Her Kids Mormon</b>:<br> <a href="http://www.greysanatomyinsider.com/2007/06/katherine-heigl-the-girl-of-summer.html"><i>Glamour</i></a>, 2007:</p> <blockquote> <p>"I’m having a glass of white wine right now; that’s not exactly being a good Mormon! But I am really supportive of the Mormon church and so profoundly grateful for the childhood I had. It’s hard work to grow and change and be honest with yourself about your mistakes, and I think the Mormons handle that beautifully. The faith I grew up with has influenced every decision I’ve made in my life — well, except for the bad ones! I haven’t decided yet. I’ve always thought I would raise [my children] Mormon because I had such a wonderful childhood."</p> </blockquote> <p><b>On The Church's Influence On Her Childhood</b>:<br> <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/services/presscenter/pressrelease/katherine_heigl200801"><i>Vanity Fair</i></a>, 2008:</p> <blockquote> <p>"A couple of Mormon families were a great comfort [after the death of her brother when Heigl was seven years old]. Both my parents felt a great desire for answers, and they found an answer in the Mormon church. Everything was kind of a mess for a while. It wasn’t like <i>Ordinary People</i>, where it destroyed that family so badly that there was never finding any joy or loving or appreciating being alive again. But I give my parents unbelievable credit for pulling it together, and I give the Mormon church a lot of credit for helping them to do that.”</p> </blockquote> <p>[<i>Photo credit: Wireimage</i>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.starmagazine.com/katherine_heigl_mormon_again/news/14404">KATHERINE HEIGL WANTS TO GO MORMON AGAIN</a> [Star]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Why Keira Knightley’s Newest Rival Will Never Be ‘The Next’ Pout-y Princess [Keira Knightley] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/keirathumb.jpg" align="left" hspace="4" vspace="2">The Brits are always fond of reminding us of just how many stars they’ve discovered, sent our way, and watched dominate the last decade’s Best Actress Oscar pool. And Keira Knightley is certainly one of their most notable success stories. But as much as they love gushing over their own born-and-bred A-listers, whenever a newer, younger little Brit with potential comes along, they love yanking that shiny crown off the last <a href="http://defamer.com/387405/why-does-keira-knightley-always-look-so-sad">pout-y superstar</a> and placing it atop the unknown’s pretty-ish head. Which leads us to 16-year-old Georgia "The Next Kiera Knightley" Groome, the <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1038427/Meet-Midget-Jones-Georgias-hailed-Hollywood-Keira-Knightley.html">upcoming star</a> of the irresistibly-titled <i>Angus, Thongs, And Full-Frontal Snogging</i>, hailed by <i>The Daily Mail</i> as <i>Bridget Jones</i> for teenagers. But after reading more about the film and its quirky dialogue (imagine a script co-written by Diablo Cody and Anthony Burgess), not to mention its leading lady’s disturbing ignorance on all things Johnny Depp-related, we came up with three reasons why Georgia will have a hard time filling Keira’s impossibly narrow shoes:</p> <p><b>1. The Script Makes <i>Bend It Like Beckham</i> Sound Like Shakespeare:</b> Diablo may have been able to get away with now-sticky phrases like "Honest to blog" and "Phuket, Thailand!" thanks to the plucky work of Ellen Page. But take a gander of these cringe-worthy attempts to make the next "fetch" happen from <i>Angus</i>: "'Oh my giddygodspyjamas" (what she exclaims when she sees a boy she likes), "nunga-nunga holder" (bra) and "Vulgaria!" (the biggest put down). Call us nuts, but we find it hard to get on board with a star whose "As <i>if></i>!"-esque breakthrough quote-worthy line includes any of the above. </p> <p><b>2. Georgia Has No Cokepants Escapades Or Nudity Scandals In Her Future:</b> As she tells the <i>Mail</i>, "I don't think I could handle all that fame and attention...Basically, I like living with my mum and dad, I like living at home, I like school and I'd miss all my friends.'" Oh dear. We're not sure an actress can even get her passport stamped on this side of the pond spouting that kind of saccharine wholesomeness. At least Keira busts out an F-bomb or twelve in nearly every interview she's given. </p> <p><b>3. Anyone Who Dares To Neglect Johnny Depp's Pre-<i>Pirates</i> Career Is On Our Shit List:</b> And we don't care how young they are. On the topic of Depp, Georgia gets all gooey-eyed and 'fesses to a crush (permissible), but goes on to say she didn't know who he was before she saw his Keith Richards impersonation in the swashbuckling blockbusters. In our world, that kind of talk is pure sacrilege, even for a 16-year-old.</p> <p><ul><li><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1038427/Meet-Midget-Jones-Georgias-hailed-Hollywood-Keira-Knightley.html">MEET MIDGET JONES!

			<title><![CDATA[ Brad Pitt To Bleeding Paparazzo: 'If You Want War, You Will Get It' [Brad PItt] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/fightclub.jpg" align="left" hspace="4" vspace="2">In the latest Pap Said / Celeb Said scandal, the mystical forests of Brangelina's French estate turned into a bloody battleground where one ruthless pap and the Jolie-Pitts’ head of security attacked each other with walkie-talkies and teeth. As <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/25/2008-07-25_police_paparazzi_guards_fight_at_angelin.html">the <i>NY Daily News</i> reports</a>, freelance photographer Luc Goursolas was so determined to slip into the compound unnoticed that he spent five hours on foot, decked himself out in camouflaged clothing, only to come face-to-unhappy-face with the soccer team’s unamused top guard. As Goursolas claims:</p> <blockquote><p>”I was pouring blood. I threw myself at them, put blood all over them, and told them that I had HIV so they would stop hitting me...The forest belongs to everyone.”</p></blockquote> <p>But from the sound of it, Pitt disagreed so vehemently with this last statement that the actor underwent a <i>Hulk</i>-like transformation into Tyler Durden, and joined this fight club himself:</p> <p>The scene, reminiscent of that <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/linday-lohan/lindsay-lohan-paparazzo-found-not-guilty-of-trying-to-make-her-hit-him-145761.php">infamous slapstick evening</a> when a NY pap jumped on top of Lindsay Lohan’s car and called it a hit-and-run, is similarly described in very different ways by Goursolas and Tony Webb, the guard at the center of the action. But figuring out who to believe means figuring out whether or not Pitt really morphed into our favorite rippled muscle man role in his steadily dimming archive. Despite the pap’s claim that the guards “hit him with a walkie-talkie, punched and kicked him, leaving a head wound that required three stitches,” Webb and his Chosen Two-protecting soldiers are the only ones who left a local hospital with nostalgically-termed “doctor’s notes” giving them four days off-duty. So as much as we enjoy the vision of Pitt storming out of his chateau shirtless, fists clenched, and telling the pap that “what you are doing is bad!”, doctor’s notes speak a bit louder than colorful words. </p> <p><ul><li><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/25/2008-07-25_police_paparazzi_guards_fight_at_angelin.html">POLICE: PAPARAZZI, GUARDS, FIGHT AT BRAD PITT AND ANGELINA JOLIE'S CHATEAU</a> [NYDN]</li></ul></p> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Miley Cyrus Vs. Selena Gomez: 'Mean Girls' Comes To Life In 'Scheisty' Video Attack [Miley Cyrus] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><script type="text/javascript"> newVideoPlayer("/selenademi_def.flv", 506, 423,""); </script>We didn’t actually think she had it in her, but the world’s <a href="http://defamer.com/5027962/as-miley-cyrus-prepares-to-go-nude-in-new-role-tween-rivals-challenge-her-to-a-strip+off">most rapidly maturing</a> 15-year old, Miley Cyrus, is behaving like, well, a 15-year old for once. Just as reports <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/24/2008-07-24_miley_cyrus_ex_nick_jonas_dating_selena_-1.html">surfaced</a> that her rival in tween porn and Disney affection Selena Gomez may be dating Cyrus’ ex-boyfriend, we learn that the Battle Of The Tweens has been going on far longer than we thought. About a month ago, the <a href="http://defamer.com/5024904/why-lindsay-lohan-is-to-blame-for-miley-cyrus-latest-nude-photo-scandal">wet t-shirt contestant</a> decided to team up with her BFF and film a YouTube video mocking Selena and her partner in underage midriff-baring crime, Demi Lovato. Have we lost you? Not to worry! The only two things you <i>really</i> need to know before watching this oddly hilarious clip are: we’re slightly worried Miley has found her daddy’s liquor cabinet, and Demi Lovato is the next Demi Moore.</p> <p>The <i>NY Daily News</i> is <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/24/2008-07-24_miley_cyrus_ex_nick_jonas_dating_selena_-1.html">reporting</a> that Gomez, the sultry-ish star of <i>The Wizards Of Waverly Place</i>, has been dating yet <i>another</i> 15-year old, singer Nick Jonas. As many of you may know (however embarrassing it is to admit), Jonas is the rumored intended recipient of most of Cyrus' kissy-face iPhone photos and pouty shower shots that hit the Internets recently. While Jonas is admittedly cute in an adolescent John Mayer sort of way, we don't see why a break-up with the kid should prompt Miley into such bitter antics. Making fun of Gomez and her alarmingly sexy best friend / fellow Disney star Demi Lovato in this clip, Cyrus drops some low-blows about the gap in Lovato's teeth (one that has since been fixed) and the fact that Lovato wears a touch of black make-up (and looks just fine in it). However, the attack seems to be backfiringl, mainly because Miley &mdash; who frequently succumbs to giggle attacks and slurring throughout the vid &mdash; made her rep as the good girl next door and not as a conniving backstabber (or, for that matter, as an burgeoning anti-Semite with her use of the word "scheisty"). Fasten your seatbelts, it looks like we have another Lohan vs. Duff feud brewing as we type.</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/miley-cyrus-mocks-selena-gomez-on-youtube">MILEY CYRUS MOCKS SELENA GOMEZ ON YOUTUBE</a> [Us]</li> <li><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/24/2008-07-24_miley_cyrus_ex_nick_jonas_dating_selena_-1.html">MILEY CYRUS EX NICK JONAS DATING SELENA GOMEZ, THE 'NEXT MILEY CYRUS'</a> [NYDN]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ We're So Excited: Screech Set To Unveil The Sex And Drugs Behind The Scenes Of 'Saved By The Bell' [Saved By The Bell] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_sbtbth.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />When we used to wake up in the mornin’ after the alarm gave out a warnin’, it was always alright ‘cuz we were <i>Saved By The Bell</i>. Yes, all you ‘80s-born kiddies, the show we embarrassingly grew up watching religiously despite the fact that catching a rerun these days makes us dry-heave, is in the headlines again. The frizzy-haired, unemployed <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/dustin-diamond/dustin-diamond-sex-tape-reviewed-verdict-save-your-money-216757.php">trophy winner</a> of the World’s Most Nauseating Sex Tape (that is, until Mini-Me <a href="http://defamer.com/5019704/mini+me-sex-tape-conclusive-proof-that-our-civilization-is-doomed">stole the title</a>), Dustin “Screech” Diamond, has given up on those comedy club circuit dreams and made the heroic decision to put his nose to the <s>mirror</s> grindstone. <a href="http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2008/07/screechs_saved_by_the_bell_tel.html">As <i>Vulture</i> reports</a>, we will soon have the pleasure reading a tell-all book scripted by Diamond, detailing what really went on behind the scenes of that epic show. And if you’re like us, who consider Jesse Spano’s “I’m So Excited...I’m So...Scared” scene a pivotal moment in our adolescence, don’t despair &mdash; Diamond is said to be more than ready to spill each and every bean when it comes to revealing all of the dirty deets of Bayside High School's Class of 1993.</p> <p>However sad it is, it seems that the aforementioned influential scene of diet pills and pointless high school ambition best exhibited by Jesse's freak-out was not as fictional as our wee tween minds originally believed. According to <i>Vulture</i>'s sources, Dustin and his ghostwriter (i.e.: mainly his ghostwriter) will reveal all kinds of details about the "sexual escapades among cast members, drug use, and hardcore partying" that went on after Mr. Belding shut down the lights each night. As insanely thrilled we are to go and purchase a retro wall <i>SBTB</i> wall calendar on which we shall X out each day until the book is released, there's still a tiny part of us that always hoped Zach and Kelly never actually did the deed after "Cut!" ended the day. Nor do we want to learn the inevitable truth that Slater was on steroids. Same goes for <a href="http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-larkvoorhiessuetabloidcocaine,0,4847988.story">how many rails</a> it took to keep Lisa Turtle from transferring to rival Valley High. Oh well, it can do anything more to ruin our childhood memories than <i>The Phantom Menace</i> did, right?</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2008/07/screechs_saved_by_the_bell_tel.html">SCREECH WRITES 'SAVED BY THE BELL' TELL-ALL</a> [Vulture]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Chosen Two Outed As Test Tube Babies [Angelina Jolie] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_brangethumb.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Excellent news to report for anyone who still thinks Angelina Jolie is perfection incarnate, in spite of that silly husband-stealing fiasco, <a href="http://defamer.com/5009702/angelina-jolie-drug-tape-revelations-sm-is-from-the-heart-and-soul">heroin tape</a>, Billy Bob phase, <i>Life Or Something Like It</i> and...well, there are probably a few of you left! According to <i>Us</i>, the conception of the <a href="http://defamer.com/search/chosen+two/bydate/?timerange=all">Chosen Two</a> was quite <i>literally</i> chosen to arrive at a specific point in Brangelina’s magical life. A source tells the weekly that the “impatient” soccer team managers didn’t rely on Brad’s super-sperm or Jolie’s <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2005/5/4/133616/3893/Title/Jolie_Hotel_Sex_Loud_Enough_To_Rouse_A_Sleepin_Kenyan">scream-filled</a> bedroom style to spontaneously produce Knox and Viv. Rather, the no-longer-immortal duo paid a hefty sum for in vitro treatments to speed up their plan to “have 10 kids...while [they’re] young." But their goal may not work out quite as planned. Reports that Angelina is being forced into joining the <a href="http://defamer.com/5026365/zac-efron-joins-matt-damons-weight-gain-club-just-for-fun-not-for-the-art-of-any-craft">trendy rapid weight loss/gain club</a> for her next role may cause a serious delay in recruiting new Jolie-Pitts for quite some time.</p> <p>Even though its <a href="http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=thomascrownaffair.htm">B.O. numbers</a> didn't exactly scream "Sequel!", the folks behind 1999's <i>The Thomas Crown Affair</i>, also known as <i>Yet Another Chance For Pierce Brosnan To Convince Us He's Charming</i>, are in pre-production mode for the second installment, slated for a 2009 release. The film's original female lead, Rene Russo, <a href="http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=4615">intelligently declined</a> to participate in the inevitable disaster, leading producers to seek out Jolie as her replacement. The only glitch? Said folks have worked with Jolie before on <i>Wanted</i>, and <a href="http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/Angelina+Jolie-21951.html">reportedly</a> fear another round of Lohan-esque fainting spells the then-skinny-as-a-rail Jolie kept experiencing while on set. As a result, they're said to be requiring their leading lady to pack on 30 pounds. As in, now. One week after giving birth to <i>twins</i>. Which begs the question: is it possible that Jolie has sped far ahead of post-pregnancy slim fast stars Jessica Alba and J. Lo in shedding her tent-dress-requiring baby weight <i>already</i>? And if not, why the need for this unnecessary sequel to star such a "weighty" co-star?</p> <p>Ah, yes. The role is that of an "action woman." Because Jolie hasn't ever portrayed a <a href="http://defamer.com/396695/wanted-ups-the-action-ante-but-afterparty-leaves-us-thirsty">gunfire-equipped</a>, <a href="http://www.virginmedia.com/movies/movieextras/top10s/top-ten-hitman-movies.php?ssid=7">stunt scene-ready</a>, <a href="http://www.comicbookhotties.com/models/angelina-jolie-pic.asp">action hero</a> before or anything.</p> <p>[<i>Photo credits: X17, Wireimage</i>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/angelina-jolie-twins-conceived-through-in-vitro">EXCLUSIVE: ANGELINA JOLIE'S TWINS CONCEIVED THROUGH IN VITRO</a> [Us]</li> <li><a href="http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/Angelina+Jolie-21951.html">ANGELINA JOLIE'S WEIGHTY ROLE</a> [Female First]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Why The Racy New Ad Campaign For 'Gossip Girl' Will Backfire [Gossip Girl] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_ggthumb.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" /><i>Gossip Girl</i>, the show that the media can't stop gushing over despite the fact that <a href="http://www.jackmyers.com/commentary/Jack_Myers_On_the_Road/25678379.html">nobody actually <em>watches</em> it</a> or anything, has of course been renewed for a second season. And in an apparent attempt to lure the large audience of celeb voyeurs that's currently interested in the cast members' <a href="http://defamer.com/397879/shockingly-rumer-willis-fails-to-seduce-chace-crawford">bi-curious antics</a> off-screen than on, the sultry young things-obsessed marketing crew at the <i>CW</i> has released some "inappropriate" images from the second season’s ad campaign. Thanks to Miley Cyrus and her “scandalous” series of <a href="http://defamer.com/5024904/why-lindsay-lohan-is-to-blame-for-miley-cyrus-latest-nude-photo-scandal">endless flesh-baring spreads</a>, any photos featuring tweenyboppers practically banging each other or doing their best O-face are fine by us. But releasing racy promos like these is a practice long used by <i>GG</i>’s predecessors, and the sleazy plan relying on that old promise that Sex Sells has a history of backfiring in many a series’ pretty little sweat-drenched faces:</p> <p>First, a closer look at the "sexy" ads in question, which include pull-quotes suggesting just how much closer potential viewers will get to the cool kids' table. Watching this show is so dangerous! Your parents will have nightmares just thinking about the (sort of) short skirts Blair wears! Do the <em>nasty</em>!<br> <a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/ggbig.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/ggbig.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <p>Sadly, progressively heightening a show's sex appeal with ever-so-slightly hotter ads might not be the wisest move. After <i>Buffy</i> got the shove-off to the vintage UPN, Sarah Michelle Gellar was photographed posing in that trademark <i>Cosmo</i> cover stance, suggestively, maybe, possibly, on the verge of masturbation. One season later, and the series' ashes lived on in that icky spin-off <i>Angel</i>. As for <i>Beverly Hills: 90210</i>, the standard smiley group shot used in promos rarely veered far off course. But once Season 10 wheezed its final pointless breath, Donna and her new boobs sat front and center, Kelly was forced to be groped by New Brandon Replacement <a href="http://defamer.gawker.com/tag/47/" class="posthashtag">#47</a>, and Steve Sanders was permitted to play "sexy" while raising a risqué, black denim-clad leg around New Brenda Replacement <a href="http://defamer.gawker.com/tag/287/" class="posthashtag">#287</a>. And the poor <i>OC</i> decided that turning Marissa into a lesbian wasn't quite sordid enough, so the previously wholesome ads ended, along with the series, with uber-tanned Mischa pushing whatever boobage she had together in the sand, while Ryan appeared ready to give her the old in-and-out from behind (Chino-style!).<br> <a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/buffbevocbig.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/buffbevocbig.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <p>Oops. After the sight of Rachel and Monica <s>passionately making out</s> giving each other a friendly peck <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/courteney-cox/decide-for-yourself-just-how-disappointing-the-rachel+on+monica-kiss-is-247866.php">failed to increase ratings</a> for <i>Dirt</i>, some genius thought the image of Courteney Cox covered in actual dirt (get it?!) would do the trick. But rather than getting new viewers all hot and bothered, everyone just felt, well, dirty (get it?! Sigh.) Finally, the recently canceled <i>L Word</i> used a rather obvious promotional image by shoving all the chic lipstick lesbians together in one big ol' nude orgy party. The problem with this image? See the previous sentence (specifically, the "canceled" part).<br> <a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/dirtlwordbig.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/dirtlwordbig.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <ul> <li><a href="http://tvwatch.people.com/2008/07/23/omg-check-out-the-new-gossip-girl-ads/">OMG!

			<title><![CDATA[ Matthew 'Matty Cakes' Broderick Caught Red-Handed While Cheating, But Does SJP Really Care? [Matthew Broderick] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_fabny110207m_017sjpmatt.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Unlike most adulterous celebrity scandals, the latest claim that <a href="http://defamer.com/383323/and-the-award-for-most-awkward-on+screen-sex-partners-goes-to-helen-hunt-and-matthew-broderick">Most Awkward On-Screen Sex Partner</a> Matthew Broderick has pulled a <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,26334,627951,00.html">Beckham</a> / <a href="http://defamer.com/5014151/ryan-phillippe-reclaims-manhood-poses-for-revenge-photo-with-reese-witherspoons-arch-enemy">Phillippe</a> / <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/irreconcilable-payscales/ethan-hawke-on-the-difficulty-of-loving-a-more-successful-actress-290883.php">Hawke</a> by getting involved in a long-term affair with a 25-year old redhead is actually filled to the brim with hilariously kinky details. The <i>Star</i> <a href="http://www.starmagazine.com/matthew_broderick_cheating/news/14391">exclusive</a> includes all sorts of juicy and slightly nauseating allegations, making Pat O’Brien’s “I want to fucking eat you!” <a href="http://defamer.com/hollywood/gossip/pat-obrien-update-fewer-f+bombs-but-just-as-disturbing-36942.php">sweet nothings</a> seem tame in comparison. As sad as any remaining fans of Ferris may be to hear it, the mag’s sources claim <a href="http://defamer.com/5025857/sarah-jessica-parker-and-the-curious-case-of-the-missing-mole">newly mole-less</a> SJP’s hubby is fond of popping ‘round his do-gooder mistress’ bedroom, darting out after 30 minutes, and leaving the girl “passed out on her bed in her panties.” But is this really so shocking? After the jump, we cover the many times Parker has hinted that the long-married couple has serious issues, from her comments that he’s always “secretly manipulating you,” to the time she confessed she just adores seeing him “have great chemistry” with other women:</p> <p>Beginning in 2001, when she <a href="http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,238378,00.html">forgot to thank</a> her husband during her Best Actress speech at the Golden Globes, Parker has been blabbing to many a tab about just how <a href="http://defamer.com/384993/sarah-jessica-parker-there-are-many-times-matthew-broderick-wishes-he-wasnt-with-me">“treacherous”</a> her 11-year marriage is. Just two years ago, she <a href="http://www.celebitchy.com/2006/03/sarah_jessica_parker_is_insecu.html">said in an interview</a>, "I feel bad that he’s not on the market...He’s just getting to his prime and I’m holding him back. Every now and then I see him with a woman and she’s really smart and beautiful and I’m like, ‘God they have great chemistry. They’d be great together.’” Not to mention her recent delight in <a href="http://fametastic.co.uk/archive/20080510/11238/sarah-jessica-parker-pimps-out-matthew-broderick-for-playdate/">telling</a> <i>NY Mag</i> that he “doesn’t have enough friends.” Ultimately, the fact that Broderick has been trysting all over town making late-night visits to the mystery woman’s bedroom (and lasting 30 minutes, no less!) sounds like a dream come true for SJP. All her wishes have come true: on the market? Check. More friends? Nailed one. Plus, her <a href="http://nymag.com/movies/profiles/46660/index1.html">remark</a> in the same <i>NYM</i> piece that “Broderick says, ‘That’s your fault!’ when he sees a thong poking up from low-slung jeans” must feel oh-so-satisfying. Parker can even claim responsibility for <a href="http://www.starmagazine.com/matthew_broderick_cheating/news/14391">Matty Cakes’</a> newfound happiness inside those thongs he apparently stares at every time they leave the house together!</p> <p>[<i>Photo credit: Splash</i>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.starmagazine.com/matthew_broderick_cheating/news/14391">EYEWITNESS EXCLUSIVE: MATTHEW BRODERICK CHEATS ON SARAH JESSICA PARKER</a> [Star]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Showbiz Has-Beens James Blunt and Gary Dourdan Enjoy An Excellent NSFW Adventure [James Blunt] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_bluntthumb.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />How's this for an unlikely couple? Former <a href="http://defamer.com/385369/fear-and-loathing-in-palm-springs-with-former-csi-star-gary-dourdan"><i>CSI</i> star-turned-drug-runner</a> Gary Dourdan and the singer responsible for the most annoying song of the decade, James Blunt, have apparently pooled together whatever cash they have left in their respective bank accounts and gone on holiday together. While on an Ibizan vacation of sin, the heroin/ecstasy enthusiast and the notorious player teamed up to stage a far racier version of Miley Cyrus’ <a href="http://defamer.com/5024904/why-lindsay-lohan-is-to-blame-for-miley-cyrus-latest-nude-photo-scandal">homemade porny photo spreads</a>, as they posed alongside at least three topless <s>prostitutes</s> female friends who were overjoyed to fake anal sex and engage in a little lesbian chic foreplay for the paparazzi. The NSFW photos, including a particularly fun shot of the blondest, nude-iest girl for hire who appears to be delighted to have her head shoved towards the third wheel's crotch, after the jump:</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/bluntbig1.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/bluntbig1.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <p>While James' blonde co-star in grainy quasi-sex tape magic does admittedly have one hell of a (fake) rack, we fear this aspirational photo shoot most likely filmed in an effort to turn Blunt into the next Dirk Diggler and Dourdan into the next <a href="http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0006805/">Buck Swope</a> will flop &mdash; mainly due to that extraneous boat-climbing fellow with the overly tight Hawaiian trunks and Blunt's far-from-beautiful paunch.</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/jbluntbig2.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/jbluntbig2.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <p>[<i>Photo credits: X17</i>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/article1454833.ece">POSH BLUNT'S TOPLESS BABES</a> [The Sun]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ As Miley Cyrus Prepares To Go Nude In New Role, Tween Rivals Challenge Her To A Strip-Off [Miley Cyrus] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_mileythumb.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />After many months spent <a href="http://defamer.com/384836/investigating-the-miley-cyrus-topless-photo-scandal-career+ender-or-standard-starlet-move">posing topless</a> in glossies, <a href="http://defamer.com/5011496/those-highly+anticipated-miley-cyrus-first-kiss-photos-worth-150k-yeah-we-got-em-already">making out with girls</a>, and staging her very own <a href="http://defamer.com/5024904/why-lindsay-lohan-is-to-blame-for-miley-cyrus-latest-nude-photo-scandal">wet t-shirt photo shoots</a>, Miley Cyrus is finally giving up on that whole innocent tween image perfected by Disney and is officially turning into Lindsay Lohan. As MSNBC <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25786912/">reports</a>, Cyrus is supposedly “really interested” in nabbing a role in <i>Undiscovered Gyrl</i>, a screen adaptation of an as-yet-unreleased novel written by <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/07/14/2008-07-14_side_dish_kate_moss_buys_for_baby.html">Naomi Watts’ ex-fiancé</a>. So what does the role of “Gyrl” entail? The plot of the novel revolves around an 18-year old blogger whose interests include alcohol abuse, sleeping around with as many men as possible, and reckless partying. Naturally, a part like this will require several nude scenes, meaning the 15-year old belly dancer and tween icon would finally get <i>paid</i> for revealing her naughty bits this time around, should she get the part. But stripping down and playing bad girls on-screen isn’t the only sign that Miley is Lindsay 2.0 &mdash; thanks to her newfound (nudity-based) fame, the underage millionaire has already launched a nasty war of words against her competition, morphing into a real-live <i>Mean Girl</i> overnight:</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/mileydemiselenabig.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/mileydemiselenabig.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <p>As we noted <a href="http://defamer.com/5017731/rising-disney-star-eyes-miley-cyrus-tweenybop-throne-earns-spot-on-all+time-best-teen-feuds-list">last month</a>, another astonishingly mature-looking 15-year old at the House of Mouse was rumored to be crowned The Next Miley: Selena Gomez, star of some kind of <i>Clarissa Explains It All</i> reincarnation called <i>Wizards Of Waverly Place</i>. And yet <em>another</em> 15-year old Disney starlet, Demi Lovato, is teaming up with Gomez to steadily out-scandalize Cyrus. Back in May, the competitors were seen wearing matching black bikinis in <a href="http://www.hollywoodgrind.com/selena-gomez-and-demi-lovato-in-bikinis/comment-page-5/">a very touchy-feely series</a> of <s>self-released</s> leaked photos set in a hot tub. And Lovato, a dead ringer for Shannon Elizabeth circa-<i>American Pie</i>, recently nabbed the lead in Disney's upcoming <i>Welcome To Mollywood</i>, which sounds like a sneaky attempt on the network's part to both steal Defamer's own Molly Duo's collective thunder (not to mention, uh, <i>Mollywood</i>'s!), and focus all their efforts on introducing Lovato as, well, the new Miley.</p> <p>Miley's response to all the impending de-crowning? As Female First <a href="http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/Miley+Cyrus-21917.html">reports</a>,</p> <blockquote> <p>"Miley has revealed talented Disney actresses Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato have no chance of being 'the next Miley' because there is only one. She said: 'People are looking up to what I do. But, I don't think there could be a next Miley. I think they should be the next Selena, Demi. Make their own way.'"</p> </blockquote> <p>Thanks for clearing that up, Miley! Not only did you just proclaim that all your fans are "looking up to" your homemade pornos, but managed to spark a tween battle reminiscent of Lohan Vs. Duff. This is going to get good...</p> <p>[<i>Photo credits: <a href="http://egotastic.com/entertainment/celebrities/miley-cyrus/miley-cyrus-not-naked-in-the-shower-plus-a-whole-new-sex-scandal-003790">Egotastic</a>, <a href="http://www.hollywoodgrind.com/selena-gomez-and-demi-lovato-in-bikinis/comment-page-5/">Hollywood Grind</a></i>]</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25786912/">MILEY MIGHT BE GUNNING FOR RACY FILM ROLE</a> [MSNBC]</li> <li><a href="http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/Miley+Cyrus-21917.html">MILEY CYRUS TO STRIP ON SCREEN</a> [Female First]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Like, This Is So Totally Embarrassing: Our Top Five Classic 'Valley Girls' [Valley Girl] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_valleygirlthumb_01.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />As <i>THR</i> reported recently, MGM is planning a <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/film/news/e3i7d21992b375a28c61c7cd0dd99f71509">musical remake</a> of the cult classic <i>Valley Girl</i>, which became the epitome of everything the magical land of acrylic nails and gum chewing addictions stood for in the early `80s. However, the remake is <a href="http://www.cinematical.com/2008/07/20/cult-comedy-valley-girl-to-be-remade-as-a-musical/">ruffling the feathers</a> of many an industry insider, mainly because the brains behind this project are less interested in revisiting the infamous twang and mall headquarters associated with girls from the Valley, a group the film arguably captured better than any successor. Instead, the epic soundtrack will serve as the reincarnation's primary subject. But whether or not the idea tanks, we're just happy to have the chance to round up our five favorite on-screen Valley Girls to ever gag us with a spoon:</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/kikiromystacybig.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/kikiromystacybig.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a></p> <p><strong>Torrance Shipman</strong>, <i>Bring It On</i>: For every sweet as sugar Valley Girl like the original film's Julie Richman, there is the head cheerleader. Torr, her sidekicks, and her priorities dipped into the shallowest end of the San Fernando pool of prissy dumb blondes (with hearts of gold! In the end, of course!) <b>Classic Quote</b>: "I <i>am</i> only cheerleading."</p> <p><strong>Romy And Michele</strong>, <i>Romy And Michele's High School Reunion</i>: A rare glimpse into the lives of the post-grad working life of the VG, Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino actually made anyone unfamiliar with the Valley kind of want to live there, where folding sweaters defined the girls' perfection of living by that old mantra: ignorance is bliss. <b>Classic Quote</b>: "You look so good with blonde hair and black roots it's not even funny."</p> <p><strong>Stacy Hamilton</strong>, <i>Fast Times At Ridgemont High</i>: For every Torrance, there is a Stacy Hamilton: that shy, naive non-looker with the way hotter friend, who falls for the short, pale, and not handsome bad boy because he smokes cigarettes and dresses in all black. <b>Classic Quote</b>: "When a guy has an orgasm, how much comes out?"</p> <p><a rel="lytebox" href="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/taibuffygirlsbig.jpg"><img src="http://defamer.com/assets/images/defamer/2008/07/taibuffygirlsbig.jpg" class="left image500" width="500" /></a><strong>Tai</strong>, <i>Clueless</i>: Most people instantly envision Cher as a classic VG, but the contemporary Emma lived in Beverly Hills. And sure, Tai does hail from the scary land of Manhattan where "coke" means cocaine, not Coca-Cola. But by the climax of the flick, Tai represents everything VGs stand for: short skirts, make-up, gold jewelry and boyfriend-stealing. <b>Classic Quote</b>: "You think I'm a mentally retarded airhead?"</p> <p><strong>Buffy Summers</strong>, <i>Buffy The Vampire Slayer</i>: Oh, Buff. The yellow cheerleading outfit. The gum. The bleached hair. The mini-skirts with polka dots used to attract football players. The like, icky gross feeling you get around dudes with British accents who are old and stuff. Our favorite, by a landslide. <b>Classic Quote</b>: "Right, I'm the chosen one. And I choose to be shopping."</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/film/news/e3i7d21992b375a28c61c7cd0dd99f71509">MGM DEVELOPS MUSICAL 'VALLEY GIRL'</a> [THR]</li> </ul> ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Natalie Portman And 'Ratty-Assed' Boyfriend Invite You Into Their Trippy 'Tantric Revelry' [Natalie Portman] ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/1/2008/07/thumb160x_natvideo_def_01.jpg" class="left image158" width="158" />Feel like crying today? Great! Thanks to Natalie Portman, queen of bizarre short films that never fail to please, a new music video collaboration with her <a href="http://defamer.com/378231/natalie-portmans-new-boyfriend-loveable-hippie-or-serial-killer">homeless-but-hot</a> folk singer boyfriend Devendra Banhart will bring on the tears. Whether they’re from fits of laughter or rage, we can’t say for sure. What we do know? This acid trip of a video starring Natalie as Princess Carmensita and Devendra as her “ratty-assed Compadré,” whose impressive <a href="http://defamer.com/377784/broadway-audiences-will-soon-learn-if-daniel-radcliffe-is-hung-like-his-horse">Harry Potter treasure trail</a> peeks out from various loincloths, might just be the best short Natalie has ever been in. Sure, her <a href="http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live/video/play.shtml?mea=2922">Gangsta Rap</a> on <i>SNL</i> was epic (“All the kids lookin’ up to me can suck my dick!”), her bare butt saved <i>Hotel Chevalier</i> from putting us to sleep, and the best short film from <i>Paris, Je T’Aime</i> featured Natalie in one of the most <a href="http://j2jamora.multiply.com/video/item/7/Paris_Je_Taime_-_Faubourg_Saint-Denis">romantic visions of Paris</a> we’ve seen to date. But can any of these compare to killer snakes flying out of her eyes, demon avatars best viewed while stoned, or watching Natalie transform herself into an octopus, whose tentacles Devendra “entangles himself in”? Watch this truly bizarre video after the jump.</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/k_QAPjtO2cA&hl=en&fs=1"> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/k_QAPjtO2cA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p>From what we can tell, Devendra plays the Ewan McGregor savior type to Natalie's Nicole Kidman-esque captive, à la <i>Moulin Rouge</i>, rescuing her from some kind of King capable of multiplying himself in an effort to hypnotize the doomed lovers. But thanks to a magic rainbow attack thrust from Devendra's forehead and dusted with Natalie's "divine aura," the King is dead. Unfortunately, a Goddess of Change lures Nat's hero away by wearing nothing but blue body paint (Devendra "likes her dress"), and our Princess pouts, turns herself into an octopus and, well, we finally get it. Banhart is not some scruffy hobo undeserving of the most likable actress in town &mdash; he's kind of gorgeous, his torso is kind of mesmerizing, and as for the song? It's headed straight into our iPod as soon as we finish this post.</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20213935,00.html">NATALIE PORTMAN GOES BOLLYWOOD IN BOYFRIEND'S MUSIC VIDEO</a> [People]</li> </ul> ]]></description>
