Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep Seal Tie with a Kiss
January 17, 2010 | Celebrities, Entertainment
Two of my girl crushes, Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep, celebrated their tie for best actress honors at the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards as any esteemed actresses would: by playing tonsil hockey on stage.
This is bulls—,” Sandy said jokingly Friday before lip-locking with Meryl, with whom she tied for the award (she for the Blind Side and Meryl for Julie and Julia). The tie was an obvious surprise, but as the audience cheered, Sandy exclaimed: “This is an honor.”
If this girl-on-girl action becomes a tradition, the impossible could happen next year: Academy voters will make sure Jessica Alba and Blake Lively tie for best actress honors at the Oscars.

January 16, 2010 | Entertainment
Join me for an interactive gabfest about the Golden Globes’ red carpet shenanigans. The Golden Globes happen to be my favorite awards show; movie and TV stars come together to drink a whole bunch of alcohol — leading Jack Nicholson to moon the audience and Jim Carrey to talk with his ass.
What’s not to love about that?
So just come back here on Sunday to chat about E!’s Live From the Red Carpet (3-5 p.m. PT/ 6-8 p.m. ET).

NBC Pays Conan O’Brien to Stop Working for Them
January 15, 2010 | Entertainment
In news that makes me feel AWESOME about the forty cents I made from Google AdSense today, NBC has agreed to pay Conan O’Brien $30 million to not work for them.
That’s right: Sources involved in the negotiations confirm that NBC has re-hired Jay Leno has “The Tonight Show” host, while giving Conan a really sweet payout and not-so-gentle push out the door.
And if they’re not happy with Leno (again), maybe they can replace him with Jimmy Fallon! Hell, he’s proven to be as effective at hosting a talk show as NBC is in managing employee relations and programming.

Stars Honor Themselves at First Annual Self-Congratulatory Awards
January 6, 2010 | Entertainment, Satire
BEVERLY HILLS — The entertainment industry is abuzz with excitement about the first-ever Self-Congratulatory Awards (SCAs) being held at Kodak Theatre later this month. The ceremony will finally offer movie, music and television stars the opportunity to pat themselves on the back in front an audience of equally self-indulgent peers.
“It’s about time stars take a moment to honor themselves,” notes presenter Paris Hilton. “Letting people soak in our awesomeness and see the sick swag we get is the least we can do for them — and for ourselves,” she adds as she tests out poses in our office’s conference room window.
According to the diamond dust-embellished invitation, the ceremony will feature a steak and lobster dinner, an open bar sponsored by Dom Pérignon, and a touching tribute to acknowledge those Americans suffering from the current economic crisis.
The SCA nominees are:
HIGHEST NUMBER OF RANDOM RED CARPET APPEARANCES:
Eva Longoria
Emmy Rossum
The Cast of Gossip Girl
Paris Hilton
Bai Ling
MOST IMPRESSIVE GOD COMPLEX:
Sean “Diddy” Combs
Madonna
Kanye West
Paris Hilton
MOST FAMOUS FOR NOTHING:
Kim Kardashian
