they’re at it again! brad & angelina have shown us once again that they can do whatever the heck they want. case in point, their brand new $40 million “vacation” home in northern italy.

the crazy huge villa features a ridiculous 18,000 square feet, home, movie theater, 15 bedrooms and two swimming pools. you know, because one swimming pool isn’t enough.

keep in mind, this just their vacation home. they won’t even live there most of the time! but rest assured when they do, maddox, pax, zahara, shiloh vivienne and knox will have no problems squeezing in there.

i mean, SO FUNNY. joshua jackson, aka pacey witter from dawson’s creek, took to the streets of san diego to launch the event of the century, pacey-con. armed with a megaphone, flyers and a “pacey-con” banner, jackson strolled through the enormous comic-con crowds to film this hilarious vid for funny or die.

dubbed the event “for all things pacey,” jackson graced the crowd with some dramatic script readings from the 90′s hit show. “i do pacey-con because pacey witter is the greatest character in television history,” he says, “ever. period.” this of course being said with creek theme song i don’t wanna wait playing in the background!

jackson was also there to sit on the comic-con panel for his latest role in the show fringe. “people ask me all the time why i’m working on this show, fringe, and the honest answer is i’m only doing it to fund my first love, which is pacey fan fiction.”

such a committed actor! pacey, you’ll always be in our hearts.

sooo, this is annoying. miss amanda bynes has pulled quite the publicity stunt! about a month ago, bynes took to her twitter to announce her “retirement” from acting. yes, at age 24.

“if i don’t love something anymore i stop doing it… i don’t love acting anymore so i’ve stopped doing it… i know 24 is a young age to retire but you heard it here first i’ve #retired… thank you everyone for understanding!!!! i’m so happy you like watching my old shows and movies!!! i love you all!!!! ”

and just one short month later, she has a change of heart! “i’ve unretired,” she announces, again from her twitter. make up your mind lady! i’m sure no one particularly cares either way, but it’s a pretty shameless way to gain publicity.

bynes then took the liberty of posting the trailer link to her latest flick, easy a. the movie tells the tale of a good girl who moves up in her school’s ranks after using the rumor mill to her advantage. amanda, emma stone & lisa kudrow star in easy a, scheduled for release on september 17.

oh me oh my. this 16-year-old is a bit confused. even more so than before!

okay, we get it – you’re EDGY!

with ever-present raccoon eyes and lingerie-themed attire, taylor seems to be reveling in the “i’m a big girl, treat me like one” attitude. her latest? publicly announcing that her best friend is her vibrator. classy!

of her music, she says:

“i’m not looking to be miley fuc**ing cyrus. i don’t care about the fame. i do it because i love music… i’m not dissing miley personally. however, i do think the disney bubblegum shi** that the world is living right now is pathetic. i thought we passed that repression… people will be surprised by [our] record. i mean, it’s a rock record. our record is a life record. it confronts everything head on. it’s death, love, drugs, sex, religion, politics.”

peep her latest display of celebrity – the music video for her band the pretty reckless’ miss nothing in which she recreates the last supper.  crawling suggestively on a tabletop toward older men. making’ you proud, mom?

if i were famous, i would do stuff like this ALL the time. catching people off guard is the best! check it out – funny or die, will ferrell’s brainchild, had the brills idea of sending an undercover jewel to sing karaoke at a hole-in-the-wall bar!

donning a sly disguise, jewel/”karen” is coaxed by her co-workers (actors) to get her booty up on stage. she starts belting out songs by jewel much to the crowd’s delight! the reaction is pretty priceless: “she sounds better than jewel!”

this viral video just might become a tv series! similar in plot to CBS’ reality show, i get that a lot, there’s quite a market for this candid camera-esque format.  the funny or die boys are said to be pitching the show to network execs this week. the jewel vid got 2.5 million views in only 3 days! definitely has some potential. would YOU watch undercover karaoke?

poor annie! how would you like to be showered with lovely gifts, and then have them all taken away? oh, and also your boyfriend gets arrested and goes to jail?

the beautiful anne hathaway has dealt with a lot the past few years. namely, her “trusting” bf, raffaello follieri, was sentenced to 4/5 years to prison for his financial exploits. she insists the rug was pulled far over her eyes – why else would she stick with this slimeball?

back in 2008, the government seized almost all of follieri’s property, including anything gifted to girlfriend anne. now, the government is requesting the rights to sell it all to cover the 2.4 million debt he racked up.

judging by the seizure legal papers, it is clear that anne was spoiled rotten by this guy! they plan to auction off:

“all jewelry, watches, and other items recovered in or about august 2008 from an individual who received them from the defendant, which includes the following: one gold colored Rolex watch; one silver colored Rolex watch; one gold colored ring with light blue-green stone; one silver colored chain approximately sixteen inches long with a cross pendant and blue and clear stones; one pair of colored silver earrings with silver clasps and blue and clear stones; one gold colored ring with clear stones around the band; one silver colored bracelet with floral design and light blue and clear stones; one silver colored bracelet with clear stones; one silver colored necklace approximately sixteen inches long with five flower shaped designs and clear stones; one five-strand necklace approximately sixteen inches long with pearl beads; one gold colored chain approximately thirty-two inches long with a gold colored pendant with a red-brown stone and a gold colored tassel; and one louis vuitton box.”

whew, that’s quite the jewelry collection! but i suppose, why would she want to keep it anyway? only bad memories. good riddance, watches and necklaces!

the MET ball (noun): a gala held at the metropolitan museum of art in which celebs far & wide gather for one purpose – to pay homage to fashion. look FIERCE, or leave.

i gots to say, i was more impressed than i usually am with the MET red carpet. there were definitely some shining moments. i couldn’t narrow down my picks for best – i chose 7! not much to say about the four above. heavenly, i believe would be sufficient enough to describe camilla belle (in jason wu), mila kunis (in vera wang), melania trump (in christian siriano), and anne hathaway (in valentino – her fave). WOW.

below, jennifer lopez worked it ouuuut in zuhair murad. love the silhouette and the design scheme – perfect for her coloring. jessica alba channels old school hollywood in this champagne colored sophie theallet gown. and i’m loving model bar rafeali’s choice of the hem, showing off her gorgeous gams in this rag & bone ensemble.

she’s been off the map recently, but claire danes came in strong at the MET ball, donning a brilliant form-fitting burberry gown. and of course, i loved rachel weisz’s custom-made oscar de la renta gown. who doesn’t appreciate a splash of color?

*   *   *

the MET ball saw a lot of white this year… some did it good, some, not so good. diane kruger chose this calvin klein gown – a great look for her. take a gander at those curves! really not jealous at all! jessica biel rocked the greek goddess look in her ralph lauren collection dress… loved the gown, hate the hair. two-toned brown has never been my thing.

kirsten dunst – what’s with the hemline? i can’t stand the it’s-a-long-dress-but-not-quite-touching-the-floor kinda thing. her rodarte for gap dress had me less than impressed. taylor swift was a different story in her ralph lauren collection ensemble – very age-appropriate and feminine. she might try switching the hairstyle every once in awhile… it’s pretty much the same on every red carpet.

and one of my faves for the night, emma watson in burberry. the stunner can do no wrong in my eyes… gorgeous!

*   *   *

aaaaand for the worst. and man, where there some unflattering choices! dear, sweet kristen stewart. in other words, what the heck is wrong with you? this chanel dress is HEINOUS in every way possible. and what’s with the hair/make-up? time to fire the stylist. the lovely gisele bundchen seems a little more like catwoman than a sophisticated MET attendee. not feeling the alexander wang gown at all.

sienna miller almost had it right in her emilio pucci gown – how much more gorgeous would it be as a full-length? and tina fey, oh tina fey. just because you’re known for being “funny” doesn’t mean you have to dress like crap. who wears a jumpsuit to the MET ball… honestly.

no words for katy perry. her cute circuit dress has actual LED lights included. doesn’t that just scream classy?

*   *   *

so, what do YOU think? agree/disagree with my picks?

holy bondage, christina! trying to stay relevant, are we ms. aguilera? it would appear so, judging by the premiere video her latest single not myself tonight! check it out, above.

the little lady is groping, grinding, humping, stripping, kissing, straddling… with boys AND girls (did anyone else notice that the brunette she gets it on with is channing tatum’s wife jenna dewan??!)

she’s really taking the “sex sells” mentality to heart! the 29-year-old singer embraces her inner dominatrix in the vid, saying “i’m more confident and comfortable in my own skin. “i think i’m even a more sexual christina.”

yeah, like how is that possible? anyone remember her video for dirty?

not to mention the striking similarities between her “new” look and that of lady gaga’s. everything from the tongue-in-cheek dancing to the hair, make-up and outfits. well, they do share a director – hype williams also led lady gaga & beyonce in the video for video phone.

what do you think of the video… or song, for that matter?

hallelujah! and hallelujah one more time for good measure! mad men‘s christina hendricks has been named the america’s most beautiful woman by esquire magazine. so, so deserving.

she just exudes “sexy!” the actress, who received a whopping 30 per cent of the votes, appears on the cover of the the mag’s may issue.

following closely behind the mad men bombshell was previous winner megan fox with 14 % of the votes and victoria’s secret model adriana lima, who earned 17 %. as gorgeous as she is, her interview was even better. check out some highlights below on her “letter to men”:

We love your body. If we’re in love with you, we love your body. Your potbelly, everything. Even if you’re insecure about something, we love your body. You feel like you’re not this or that? We love your body. We embrace everything. Because it’s you.

We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women. When you mention in passing that a certain woman is attractive — could be someone in the office, a woman on the street, a celebrity, any woman in the world, really — your comment goes into a steel box and it stays there forever. We will file the comment under “Women He Finds Attractive.”

We also remember everything you say about our bodies, be it good or bad. Doesn’t matter if it’s a compliment. Could be just a comment. Those things you say are stored away in the steel box, and we remember these things verbatim. We remember what you were wearing and the street corner you were standing on when you said it.

Remember what we like… I mentioned this three or four weeks ago and talked about it briefly, but he was really listening to me. And he actually went out and researched and found this thing for me. It was amazing.

Stand up, open a door, offer a jacket. We talk about it with our friends after you do it. We say, “Can you believe he stood up when I approached the table?” It makes us feel important. And it makes you important because we talk about it.

No shorts that go below the knee. The ones almost like capri pants, the ones that hover somewhere between the kneecap and the calf? Enough with those shorts. They are the most embarrassing pants in the world. They should never be worn. No woman likes those.

There are better words than beautiful. Radiant, for instance. It’s an underused word. It’s a very special word. “You are radiant.” Also, enchanting, smoldering, intoxicating, charming, fetching.

Marriage changes very little. Intelligence and humor (and your smell) are what get you laid. That’s what got you laid when you were single. That’s what gets you laid when you’re married. Everything still works in marriage: especially intelligence and humor. Because the sexiest thing is to know you.

miley cyrus is 17. seventeen years old. and is moving into a 3.4 million mansion in toluca lake. but not to fret, billy ray, she’s just a few 100 feet away!

why is this happening, i ask you? more deets on the mansion…

“the pop star’s new spanish-style hacienda home is 4,045 sq feet in size and has four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms plus a tennis court and pool.

there is a formal dining room with french doors that open to the yard, a wood-paneled study, and a state-of-the-art kitchen with a center island, granite counter tops, several sky lights, and a menu planning area.”

sounds dreamy! and if that wasn’t enough space for one person, she’s also got a 2-bedroom guest house on the property. this way, all her disney buddies can get their own room when they have sleepovers!
