R.I.P., James. And thanks for the shoes. More »

Casey Anthony was just declared not guilty of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, or aggravated manslaughter — which is shocking because the evidence all seemed to point to Anthony being a psychopath who calmly planned out the murder of her daughter Caylee. The media attention surrounding today’s verdict got us thinking about other high-profile cases, and the inevitable TV movies and feature films depicting women who kill. More »

Sometimes even celebrities need a few words of inspiration. And sometimes they need them so badly they decide to tattoo these words directly onto their bodies.

Amanda Knox: Murder on Trial in Italy premiered on Lifetime last night and it was, in a word, awesome. Starring Hayden Panettiere as Amanda Knox and Marcia Gay Harden as Amanda’s mother Edda Mellas, (because Lifetime must have a contract that stipulates that Marcia Gay Harden play the mother in every movie.) The movie is told from a pretty impartial point of view; Amanda Knox is never shown confessing to the murders, but her apathy reveals a darker side that the Italian police and media found so troubling.

What’s that old expression again? Nothing is certain but death, taxes and Law & Order? We can’t remember the last time we channel surfed without coming across an episode of the franchise on one network or another.

From a pre-teen Leighton Meester to Stephen Colbert with mommy issues, we put together a gallery of some of the best before-they-were-famous L&O clips. More »

It’s easy enough to say, “You know who Michael Pitt looks like? Sort of like a chubby Leonardo DiCaprio, if Leonardo DiCaprio wasn’t already a chubby version of himself half the time.” (Actually, that’s a mouthful.)

Even Jared Leto‘s desperate attempt to be “different” calls to mind another, even more desperate fame-junky. Check it: More »
… depending on whether you could pull off the sleek, swept-back pixie that Hayden Panettiere debuted last week. She follows the lead of other cropped cuties like Ginnifer Goodwin, Carey Mulligan and Mia Wasikowska. The cut is gamine, sporty and elegant but also a major commitment that gives us reservations on taking it all off (and having to live with the consequences, for better or worse!). We asked if you’d take the leap, and most of you expressed ambivalence… More »
