Nothing Comes Between Me and My Calvins

The new Calvin Klein Jeans commercial is HOT. So hot that it has already been banned from late night television. I have to say, I’m going to join the masses and deem this offensive. Unlike the FCC, though, it wasn’t the oh-so-steamy kissing, playful touching, or racy threesome action that did me in (in fact I enjoyed watching this commercial over, and over, and over… for research purposes, of course). So what did I think was so offensive?

Did you …

Attention World: Jessica Simpson is NOT Fat

Dear Mean Bloggers/News Outlets of the Americas,

Are you kidding me? Like, seriously; are you freaking kidding me?

You’re calling Jessica Simpson fat? FAT?! Maybe she put on a few pounds this winter (just like the rest of the population), or maybe she is the victim of a terrible, TERRIBLE, wardrobe malfunction (hello, mom jeans), but the girl is by no means fat.

I won’t even comment on how ridiculous our society is that this is one of the top …

Global Warming: The World’s Hottest Leaders

As pictures of Barack Obama flood the front pages, we can’t help but admire the hotness that is our new president. We wouldn’t mind having foreign relations with him, if you know what we’re sayin’…

There’s just something about a man in power that we can’t get enough of. Give a guy a nice suit, some secret service and an oversized desk and we are weak in the knees.

And President Obama isn’t the only hottie in a leadership role.…

Assault with a Deadly Taco

19-year-old Zachary Moir is being held on $1,500 bail and has been sitting in jail since Tuesday. His crime is a little surprising as he didn’t bring a gun to school, yell fire in a crowded movie theater, steal or drive drunk. Instead Zachary Moir has been charged with domestic violence battery after throwing a taco at his mother.

That’s right, a taco.

Dena Moir, Zachary’s mother, called Volusia County sheriff’s deputies to on Tuesday to report the incident. After …

Teen Plastic Surgery on the Rise. Why?

When Oprah high fived Kate Winslet and proclaimed “God bless your real breasts!” I smiled and felt a little bit prouder for women with real breasts everywhere. Not everyone has huge, perky, volleyballs on their chests and it’s about time someone recognized it. Maybe it’s silly that it took a reminder from Oprah Winfrey that breasts move, but after the article in the New York Times yesterday, it looks like more women need to be reminded.

The latest figures show …

New Kids on the Block? Try New Kids at Sea…

Looking for a little something different (and totally rad!) for Spring Break this year?

Why not take a cruise back to the late eighties with your favorite boy band, New Kids on the Block? The band (yes, they are still a band) announced today that tickets for their concert cruise, which sets sail on May 15th, will go on sale tomorrow (Wednesday, Jan. 14). The ship will travel from Fort. Lauderdale, Florida down to the Bahamas where I imagine …

A Look Back at (Male) Idol Winners Past

It’s that time of year again! The time of year young performers from around the country line up to put their hopes and dreams out on primetime TV. When we can sit around in flannel pants and guiltlessly judge, mock and swoon over every audition tape that comes our way. When Paula stands up and speaks some nonsense gibberish at starry eyed singers.

That’s right ladies: American Idol starts tonight (OMGI’mSoExcited!).

In honor of some of the awesomest entertainment on …
