Britney Spears Invades ‘How I Met Your Mother’, I Get Freaked Out

I’m not going to lie. I’m kind of addicted to television. However, I like to think that I watch television of a pretty high quality (mainly sitcoms that are actually funny, documentaries with the occasional Haunted Insert Noun Here, and smart dramas that don’t involve horny doctors in fictional hospitals).

So when I found out that Britney Spears had been cast on my second favorite sitcom (behind The Office), How I Met Your Mother, I was a little perturbed to say the least.

How I Met Your Mother has succumbed to stunt casting before, giving guest spots to stars like Mandy Moore, Enrique Inglesias, and in one episode, Heidi Klum and a bevy of Victoria’s Secret models. However, these cameos were mainly a way to try and reign in more viewers, as HIMYM has often had low ratings, despite the inherent hilarity of the show.

But now the makers of the show have gone too far. I try to avoid Britney Spears columns like the plague, considering that I really don’t like voluntarily hearing about a person’s psychological meltdown. Schadenfreude really isn’t my thing. So when I saw the headline announcing this guest spot, I was thisclose to skipping over the article entirely. Imagine my horror when I realized the sitcom gig in the headline was referring to my beloved, pure, funny, and original How I Met Your Mother. Read More »


Music Bite: Mandy Moore, *More* Than a Pop Princess

823_mandy.jpgEvery once in a while, I’ll hear a song, and I’ll think to myself, Christ. This song is beautiful. Who sings it?

And then I find out Mandy Moore sings it. And it takes me a second to not freak out, because, like, I don’t usually turn to Mandy Moore when I want music that actually means something. But you know what? The chick has got some serious skills.

She’s grown up. Broken up (with Zack Braff. Me thinks she’s better off now), ripped away her computerized vocals, and poured her heart out to a piano.

Gardenia is off her newest album, Wild Hope. And even though the title seems just a bit cheesy, this song is anything but. If you’ve ever had to pick yourself up from the floor after a hideous break-up, Gardenia is your anthem.


Celeb Plastic Surgery: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly

Sure, it’s a given that if you’re a somebody in Hollywood, you’ve probably got a fake…something. Nose, chin, ass, boobs–it’s a virtual grab bag of faux perfection!We can always tell when a celeb gets some work done. Always.

There are entire websites dedicated to outing stars who go under the knife! And, correct me if I’m wrong, but it almost always looks comically obvious, or even worse, botched.

So, why is it that celebrities keep going in see see their Docs to fix, correct, tighten, or sculpt? Answer: They’re crazy. Most of them are plain old nutjobs, if you ask us!

It’s hugely rare to see a celeb go in for their Frankenstein-esque procedures and not come out looking like…well, Frankenstein. But there are a lucky few that just so happened to come out alive! Thank God.

Wilmer Valderrama: Are You Fu*#ing Kidding Me?

fash6_gallery__470×352.jpg

Against my wishes, Wilmer Valderrama is still famous.

IMDB says he’s got 4 movies coming out, including a remake of CHIPs where he plays Ponch.

Plus, he’s got that show on MTV…that show that makes me want to vomit in my hand and then throw it at the TV; Yo Mamma. A program so lame, so boring, and so repetitive, it has to potential to push viewers into an immediate coma.

I didn’t always wish Valderrama would go away. Years ago, when he was just starting on That 70’s Show, I thought he was adorable. Hilarious, too. But everything changed when he started dating Lindsay. His attitude and ego soared (although maybe they had already been that way?), he oozed skeeze, and was talking trash about harmless little Mandy Moore.

Then he started to design $80 T-shirts, and then…Yo Mamma. Read More »


Cameron Diaz and John Mayer??

DAMN, this chick knows how to score the hotties.Apparently, Cameron Diaz is now hooking up with John Mayer, who has gotten so hot lately, it’s not even funny.

First, Jared. Then, Justin. Now, John? After meeting up in NYC with Mandy Moore early in the week, (which looks pretty platonic to me) he spent the night dining with Diaz at a romantic restaurant. Ooooooooh!

Unfortunately, this tall and lanky couple can’t really be confirmed until we see actual proof of them holding hands and sucking face. Read More »


Mandy Moore Gets Herself an Umbrella

You know that Rihanna song you’ve been hearing all summer? The song which has spawned it’s own line of ridiculous rain gear? That song you want to hate but can’t quite deny the catchiness factor?

Well, someone else has reluctantly admitted it’s awesome.

Mandy Moore, one of those “normal” celebrities who doesn’t whore herself out or shove drugs down her throat, recently covered the pop hit of Summer 2007, doing it a cool, folky justice. Read More »


Zach Braff is Creepy

zach-braff.jpgAnyone who would cheat on Mandy Moore is just a little bit devoid of morality, but for some reason, Zach Braff is especially slimy. The guy has become ubiquitous, skulking around NYC romancing groupies left and right. He’s so smarmy Mandy managed to pen a whole album about his toxic ways. I don’t wanna taste of that candy.

But Braff is fighting back. He doesn’t want his nice – guy image tarnished by Mandy and more’s testimonials. Yesterday, he attempted to make nice with the ladies in the classiest of ways: through his myspace blog. As he writes: He’s just a normal guy. He’s 32. He’s dating. He’s happy!

Of course he’s happy, screwing (literally and figuratively) people without a care. You see, Zach Braff represents a dangerous breed of man: the sensitive intellectual who will secretly and stealthly screw you over. This guy reels you in with his kind eyes, open ears and taste in indie rock, only to dump you cold as soon as he’s bored, or even worse, keep “listening” to you while simultaneously “listening” to six other women.
