Gossip Girl‘s Georgina Sparks Reveal And Reversal Was A Cheap Trick
We would have been OK if Georgina Sparks (Michelle Trachtenberg) were Gossip Girl, but then the writers blew it this week and basically retracted their big “reveal.” Now Georgina’s back to being annoying, not to mention utterly powerless. More »
Gossip Girl Power Ranking: ‘The Backup Dan’
This episode should have been retitled “Dan and Blair Sit Around in an Airport and then a Hotel While Other People Wonder Where They Are,” but at least Blair stood up for herself and we now know the truth about Gossip Girl and the real Charlie Rhodes. More »
Conspiracy Theory: Georgina Sparks Is A Gossip Girl, But Not The Gossip Girl
Here’s what I’m thinking: Gossip Girl is a code name given to any number of in-the-know New Yorkers with an exhaustive list of tipsters and a grudge against the Upper East Side kids. Which means that Georgina Sparks is only GG’s latest disciple, not the original snarky blogger herself. More »
Gossip Girl Power Ranking: ‘G.G.’
Blair loses out this week after abandoning her wedding reception… but Dan, who steals a limo for her a la The Graduate, nearly makes it to the top of our power ranking. The only person in his way? Georgina, who might also be Gossip Girl herself! More »
13 Actresses Just As Pale As Michelle Trachtenberg
Michelle Trachtenberg recently told US Weekly that she was considered for the role of Bella in the insanely successful Twilight franchise due to her uniquely pale complexion. “There was definitely interest here and there because there’s only so few pale girls in Hollywood,” she explained. I had no idea white people were so underrepresented in popular culture! Oh wait, they’re not. Here are 13 working Hollywood actresses just as pale as Michelle Trachtenberg. More »
Casting HBO’s TV Adaptation Of The Corrections
It’s official, the film adaptation of Jonathan Franzen‘s novel The Corrections will air as a series on HBO. Hooray – I love that book so much! Dianne Wiest and Chris Cooper are already cast as the matriarch and patriarch of a dysfunctional family, but who will play the other characters? Like annoyingly rebellious academic Chip? Or chef Denise, who’s exploring her sexuality? Here’s my dream cast — take notes, HBO. More »
Snap This: So a Bunch of Geek Icons Walk into a Bar…
Seth Green just tweeted this photo of Katee Sackhoff, Michelle Trachtenberg, Billy Baldwin, and Harold Perrineau, Jr. at the table read for Sexy Evil Genius, a new indie film. Of course, in this photo we’ve got a bevy of geeky shows represented: Lost, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Battlestar Galactica. The sexy evil genius of the title is Sackhoff, who lures her exes to meet her at an L.A. bar, though they have no idea what her devious intentions are. More »
Famous ‘All My Children’ and ‘One Life to Live’ Alumni
Many hearts were broken – including ours – when ABC announced the cancellation of two of their long-running soaps, All My Children and One Life to Live. Though soaps get a reputation for being full of evil twins and demonic possessions (which, sometimes, they kinda are), soaps are also a breeding ground for young talent. More »

Sweet Repeat: Celebrities Looking Miserable In Front Row of Fashion Week
We know Fashion Week, for all it’s glamor and gift bags, can be exhausting. But most of the time, we’re grateful to even get a seat or be snapping pics on the red carpet, even if it means walking 20 blocks on the West Side Highway (in heels) just to make it to a show someone’s decided to hold in a Pier that resembles a giant, abandoned warehouse that someone threw a runway in the middle of.
But what we don’t get is why celebrities – those who are given the star treatment, the best seats, and all the swag they could ask for — always look so miserable while models parade by them like they were the royal court back in medieval times. Cheer up, people! Or at least, try to look a little less put-out. More »

Weird Party Crash: A Target Opens In East Harlem
Have you ever gone to a party that is so random yet you continue to stay precisely because it is so random?
Past college parties come to mind. So does this rando party at Moby’s house with a performance artist named Mangina.
That was our mindset Tuesday night as we attended the grand opening of a Target store in East Harlem. Targets are rare in NYC, so a new one is as big a deal as when Trader Joe’s opened downtown and… More »
Gallery: CFDA Awards Summon The Olsens, SJP And Jessica Biel
Purportedly, the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Awards are supposed to celebrate the people who make the glitterati sparkle. But despite the multitude of A-listers at the event last night in New York, the color scheme for this year is either “beige” or “totally insane.” No in-between. (Editor’s Note: Totally insane? How about awesome! The daring designs look fantastic). On one side you have Alexa Chung and Alexis Bledel; on the other, Sarah Jessica Parker and Jessica Biel…. More »

Check out this crazy gossip about Ashlee Simpson. Someone said she went all crazy on Pete Wentz’ ex Michelle Trachtenberg while out Monday night.
The source claims that Ashlee got drunk, said some vile things about Michelle (including that she slept with Pete while he and Michelle were dating) and then proceeded to give Pete a lap dance.
Hmmm. I said BOGUS the first time I heard this, but then caught a follow up from Ashlee’s rep, which… More »
