Baked Fish Is The Best


· We have to admit that, up to this point, we haven't been regular watchers of BET's Hell Date. That's all about to change.
· Remember when we said yesterday that we were totally going to buy the new issue of GQ because Rachel Bilson is on the cover? Well, we lied. Egotastic has got the pictures. Frankly, we were hoping for more.
· Our favorite Olsen, Ashley, made out with our least favorite Leto, Jared.
· Absolut Vagina! Probably better than Absolut Kurant.
· Enjoy this complete retrospective of Amy Winehouse's hair.
· I'll Say I'm Sorry, But I'm Not Taking Off My Glasses: The T-Shirt [via Gorilla Mask]
· And you thought Kirk Douglas looked old?

Latest by BlowHarder: Yeah, so what's the story with this Hell Date thing? Is, like, one of them a plant? Because in this clip I can't tell which is supposed of them is supposed to be the nightmare. more »

Trade Round-Up: Chinese Pirates Already Disrespecting 'Spider-Man 3' Copyrights

· Realizing that he's only played a lawyer once (Fatal Attraction), Michael Douglas quickly signs on to fill the courtroom-drama-shaped hole in his career by starring in Tragic Indifference, based on a landmark case against Ford over its "indifference to flaws in its SUVs." Scene-chewing delivery of a stirring closing statement to follow. [Variety]
· Chinese Pirates 1, Sony 0: China's camcording brigade has already made pirated copies of Spider-Man 3 available on the streets of Beijing, nearly two weeks ahead of the movie's U.S. debut. Didn't that flashy Tokyo premiere teach the scofflaws anything about respecting copyrights? The MPAA's next step: dispatching piracy-hating stuntman Manny Perry to smash some black market DVD stalls with a Louisville slugger. [THR]
· The Coen Brothers will make the Fargoesque dark comedy A Serious Man for Working Title and Focus Features. Lantern-jawed muse George Clooney has yet to be attached. [Variety]
· Should ABC pick up the much-discussed Grey's Anatomy spin-off for the fall, creator Shonda Rhimes has selected Krista Vernoff to run the Grey's mothership and Marti Noxon for the satellite; Rhimes will oversee both, which will primarily involve ensuring that both shows' characters have properly overwrought speeches about their impossibly complicated love-lives to deliver and collecting enormous paychecks [THR]
· Lifetime proves its admirable commitment to keeping the female television drama stars of the 90's off the streets, signing up 90210's Jennie Garth and Party of Five's Lacey Chabert for made-for-TV movie gigs. [Variety]

Short Ends: A Black Day For Yellow Wiggles

· The headline "Yellow Wiggle Decides to Stop Performing" may not mean much to you, but trust us, there are millions of four-year-olds tearfully clutching CD covers right now and angrily accusing Yellow Wiggle Ono of having broken up their favorite band.
· By now you've probably heard that Sofia Coppola is a new mommy. Just like the one she almost got last week!
· We know you simply couldn't go on without knowing how Michael Douglas is doing after almost falling during a Bermudan "roof-wetting" ceremony. He's OK!
· Yes, all of Cracked.com's lame fight scenes are pretty terrible, but the knife-licking insanity of #1 wins by a wide margin.
· After over two decades, Beverly Hills is almost ready to endorse a subway route, but residents are secretly hoping the "wrong kind of people" who will inevitably end up riding it will bypass their manicured streets for whatever Santa Monica crack motel they're headed to.
· For those of you for whom the Michael Richards "Afro-American" apology on Letterman left them wanting, perhaps you'll prefer these more coherent sentiments from an old episode of Seinfeld...though they'll probably end up doing more harm than good.

Short Ends: Lifting Michael Douglas

· Defamer Celebrity Style Secret: Wear your jowls on the back of your neck and your original hairline at the base of your skull to look years younger! [Hat tip to Gilded Moose for alerting us to Michael Douglas' alarming facial tightness.]
"'Hitler was a bad man, but what's wrong with having food here?' said Ashwini Phadnis, 22, a microbiology student as she tucked away a piece of chocolate cake." Real wire story on India's Hitler's Cross restaurant or Onion article? You make the call.
The Gut's figure sketching class is really starting to pay some dividends.
Now that she mentions it, yeah, Kevin Federline does resemble a weasel.
· We highly recommend Defamer blogfather Choire Sicha's piece on the short shrift honkies receive in Snakes on a Plane. Being white on Samuel L. Jackson's plane is more deadly than being a virgin in a slasher flick.
· Every model could really learn something from Jeremy Piven's unconventional hand placement choices. More »

Latest by Bon Jour, Pee Wee: Rumor has it, that's why he grew out that hideous beard in the recent past, to cover up surgery scars. Too lazy to look for a pic. more »

No, Not That Michael Douglas. The Other One.


Please note the newswire's careful repetition of the "former TV show host" identifier, a compassionate touch obviously included to prevent a series of tearful condolence phone calls to Catherine Zeta-Jones—whose much older husband, quite frankly, is probably one more sexagenarian facelift away from some tragic, fatal complications.

Breaking! Michael Douglas Engages In Incestuous Watersports!

While Tom Cruise holes up in his compound and selfishly withholds all information about his alleged offspring from the world, Hollywood veteran and proud older dad Michael Douglas can't wait to let the world know about all the wonderful things his kid is up to: More »

Short Ends: Your Very Own Black Bar

· Those sweethearts at TMZ.com are at it again, sending out some obnoxious punk with a video camera to get into Woody Harrelson's face until he retaliates, which provides them with yet more scummy scoops for their site. As Tabloid Baby blog points out, Time Warner is skating up an oil-slicked slope with this one.
· Let this be a warning to you: The only one who has a right to use Michael Douglas' image to whore out goods and services is Michael Douglas.
· Watching aspiring soap actors unsuccessfully try to tear each other's clothing off never gets old.
· You can now pre-order "Cobras in the Cockpit"—the totally unauthorized SoaP-inspired boardgame. It's no fun for the whole family!
· Save a tabloid editor the time and trouble of having to censor your underage, partying face from photos by wearing the black bar to the club.

Michael Douglas Denies Having Said Thing He Probably Said

When a GQ profile quoted Michael Douglas as taking a petty swipe at everyone's favorite globetrotting altruists Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie ("I don't know about Brad Pitt, leaving that beautiful wife to go hold orphans for Angelina. I mean, how long is that going to last?" were his reported words), it instantly became the diss heard round the world. But the impressively bearded actor has gone on the record with Extra, claiming that the quote was entirely fabricated: More »

Michael Douglas Puts Long Odds On Team Jolie

A little trash talking and competition between celebrity UN spokespersons is nothing new who could forget that regrettable 1976 gala podium hair-pulling incident between Shirley Temple Black and Audrey Hepburn? but when UN Messenger of Peace Michael Douglas recently took a swat at UN Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie, he took things a step too far, dragging her innocent assortment of adopted orphans and their proud new dad into the ugliness: More »

Zeta-Jones: Keep Your Grubby Hands Off My Irresistible, Sexagenarian Husband

In Brazil to promote her new movie The Legend of Zorro, Catherine Zeta-Jones laid down the law when it comes to the daily barrage of lustful, pansexual mummy-fetishists beating a path directly for the contents of eternally youthful husband Michael Douglas' pants: More »

trade roundup

Trade Round-Up: Ben Stiller Unleashes Neurotic Curse On Family Audiences

· With an eye towards cleaning up at next year's holiday box office, Fox signs Ben Stiller for A Night at the Museum, in which Stiller will star as a security guard who "unwittingly unleashes a curse that brings to life the bugs and animals on display." Excuse us. Stiller will star as a twitchy, neurotic, and impotent-rage-prone security guard who "unwittingly unleashes a curse that brings to life the bugs and animals on display." [Variety]
· Despite CBS's killer hurricane and NBC's live debate on The West Wing/two-hour L&O:SVU counterprogramming Hail Marys, America still preferred to watch the creepy, gay-seeming pharmacist contemplate date-raping Marcia Cross on Desperate Housewives. [THR]
· Michael Douglas mercifully chooses a role which will probably not require any further restorative plastic surgery, signing up to play "an eccentric and manic-depressive father who becomes obsessed with his belief that there's buried treasure in the San Fernando Valley" in the Alexander Payne-produced King of California. [Variety]
· Now that an Everybody Loves Raymond spinoff looks like a longshot, Brad Garrett realizes that he might need someone to find him a job, hires William Morris to hunt down the appropriate sitcom second-banana roles and CBS MOWs. [THR]
· It's William Morris Signing Day! Catherine Zeta-Jones returns to the welcoming arms of longtime WMA agent George Freeman, whom she jilted for CAA two years ago. [Variety]

Michael Douglas Discovers Fountain Of Youth


Maybe it's the Don-Johnson-at-his-swaggering-best stubble, maybe it's the fresh coat of Just for Men's "Natural Ash Brown," or maybe it's the fact that only one of the "weeping wounds" on his face is bandaged, thereby deflecting all suspicion that he's very recently had some elective age-correction surgery with some canny facial asymmetry, but that Michael Douglas is looking awfully spry these days. In fact, he's so darn youthful we feel we must issue an apology for referring to Catherine Zeta-Jones as a "mummy war bride"—at least until his face starts to slacken again.
