Live-Blogging E!’s Golden Globes Red Carpet Pre-Show
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).

What I Learned from the 2009 Oscars
February 22, 2009 | Pop Culture
1. Screw Clooney. I’ve decided Hugh Jackman is my baby-daddy. Congrats, Hugh!
2. The ceremony producers were clearly dying to employ a split-screen between Jennifer Aniston and Brangelina during Jen’s presentation, given how many times they cut away to the Brange. Aw-kward.
3. Phillip Seymour Hoffman just came from robbing a bank.
4. Between the “Milk” screenwriter’s touching speech and Heath Ledger’s win, I should have kept a box of Kleenex handy. I’m snot kidding.
5. That Octomom sure does clean up nicely.

Live-Blogging E!’s Live from the Red Carpet: 2009 Academy Awards
February 22, 2009 | Pop Culture
Most recent observations on top:
- Brad Pitt says a total of five words to Seacrest while scurrying away. Clearly, Brad is a big fan of Seacrest’s work.
- Girl crush alert #2: The Kate Winslet edition.
- Beyonce wins Tackiest Dress Thus Far.
- Girl crush alert: The Penelope Cruz edition.
- I do love Angelina’s hair, though. So wavy and purty.
- Angelina Jolie could pull off a red leather jumpsuit, and yet she’s wearing ANOTHER black dress. Oh, Angelina. Why you gotta play me like that?
- Jessica Biel at the Oscars, on the heels of her Razzie nomination for “Chuck and Larry.” Yeah, that makes sense.
- Robert Downey Jr. cleans up well. Hubba hubba, as my Great Uncle John would say.
- Whenever Seacrest is at a loss for words, he just says “well-done” in a complimentary tone. WTF? I think we have a new drinking game!
- Evan Rachel Wood wears a nude dress. As ill-advised as a Mickey Rourke hook-up.
- Diane Lane is so purty.
- Okay, Mickey Rourke is melting my heart o’ ice with his Loki locket.
- Natalie should rub off some of that excess shake-n-bake on Anne Hathaway.
- Oh, Natalie Portman. Not the Shake-n-Bake tan!
- Loving Sarah Jessica Parker’s “barely mint” fairy princess gown. As for Matthew Broderick’s hair… oh, honey, no.
- Heidi Klum leaned in for the two-cheek kiss, and Seacrest totally left her hanging.
- John Legend’s girlfriend’s breasts: Girls on the Loose.
- The kids from “Slumdog” are too damn cute.
- Ryan’s highlights are clearly affecting his brain.
- Seacrest to Kevin Kline: “I hear you’re presenting!” Kevin Kline: “Um, I am?”
- Oh, dear god. Giuliana and Ryan’s filler conversation before the (big) stars show up is enough to lull me to sleep. The only thing keeping me afloat is my Sugar Patch Kids sugar rush.
- Ken Baker “breaks” the news of Nicole Richie’s pregnancy… which People reported, like, ten years ago. Woo-hoo! Go, Ken.

M.I.A. Almost Went into L.A.B.O.R. at Grammys
February 9, 2009 | Pop Culture
British/Sri Lankan raptress M.I.A. who, as you may have noticed, is nine months pregnant, performed at last night’s Grammys ceremony — but not without a little backstage drama.
Jack Sussman, CBS’ exec VP of specials and live events, told EW:
“She went into contractions when the show went on the air and she was not supposed to go on until act 8! I asked her to just hang on until 10 ET. The kid’s a gamer…and by the way, the gurney is always there. Every once in a while, someone falls.”
How reassuring! Meanwhile, M.I.A., Jr., the baby inside said womb, told CandyKirby.com:
“I was just trying to get the hell out of there before the world saw me in that God-awful outfit. I mean, did you see what Mom was wearing? Cow-whore chic! How embarrassing.”

What I Learned from E!’s Grammy Red Carpet Coverage
February 8, 2009 | Pop Culture
1. Kim Kardashian should stick to her day job. Whatever that is.
2. Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry showed up to the same event, therefore, they may indeed be different people. However, they have not yet posed in a photograph together. The investigation continues…
3. E!’s Ken Baker claims to have “breastfeeding sources” that can confirm Ashlee Simpson is nursing her baby. Um, okay. Something tells me those “sources” = binoculars + a view into Ashlee’s window.
4. When you find you’re shorter than teenage girls, it’s time to borrow Tom Cruise’s lifts.
5. Maternity fashion: classier than ever.
