Readers Respond: 14 Is Too Young To Have Sex
Yesterday, we found out from Khloe Kardashian that she gave up her v-card at 14 and regrets it. Not only that, she thinks that the age of 14 is far too young to have sex. After the first time she had sex with her 18-year old boyfriend, she stayed celibate for three years.
The whole thing perplexed us a bit so we put the question to you, Dear Crushable readers. And as it turns out, you overwhelmingly agree that 14 IS too young to have sex. More »
Readers Respond: ‘Glee’ Christmas Photo Creepier Than GQ Spread
Last week we had to gargle our eyeballs with Listerine after seeing Matthew Morrison and the cast of Glee posed for a holiday photo in what has to be the world’s gnarliest sweaters. There was something so creepy, so off-putting about that image that we found it 100 times more offensive than that supposedly raunchy GQ shoot that lead to so much controversy over the appropriate skirt levels of Lea Michele and Dianna Agron. But we put it to a vote, and you guys responded overwhelmingly: More »
Poll: Are Hair Removal Coupons Appropriate Gifts?
At the very end of Fashion Week, Liana and I attended an event where the shwag bag at the end of the night included Pop Chips, Vitamin Water, and….a gift certificate to get “laser hair removal surgery” valued at $295. Uh?
Now, I don’t think the event planners were trying to tell us that we need to wax our upper lips more. But there was something a little bit off-putting about this free “gift.” It’s like giving you a bag of… More »
Poll: Does Birth Control Make You Psycho?
Our friends over at Lemondrop posted an article today revealing the findings of a recent study that says women tend to get more aggressive and jealous when they are on some form of hormone contraceptive. That would totally back up my claim in college, which is that birth control worked only in the way that it made you so crazy, no guy would have sex with you. More »
Readers Respond: ‘Harry Potter’ Better Than ‘Twilight’
Well, I can’t say that I saw this coming: Last week when we asked readers to weigh in on the ultimate, decision-set-in-stone debate of the Twilight Saga versus the Harry Potter series, we were expecting to get a spirited number of responses from both Team Harry and Team Edward. But according to our poll, you guys prefer your wizarding to your vampires by a wide, wide margin. More »
‘Harry Potter’ Vs. ‘Twilight’: The Ultimate Crushable Poll
To an alien race, J.K. Rowling‘s Harry Potter books and Stephanie Meyers‘ Twilight Saga may seem to be more similar than different: both are children’s series that have developed a weird adult cult, both have become giant movie franchises, and both are drawing out their final chapters into two seperate films.
But as millions around the world know, the real question isn’t Team Jacob or Team Edward, it’s Twilight versus Harry Potter. And today Crushable nearly imploded when we found out that two of our staff were mortal foes when it came to choosing sides. Read our point/counterpoint and then vote in our Harry Potter/Twilight poll to determine, once and for all, the superior series. More »
Readers Respond: Thumbs Up On Lea Michele’s Racy Boob Shot
Last week we asked Crushablettes to weigh in on Glee‘s Lea Michele and her Marie Claire U.K. photo shoot, which included a shot of the pint-size actress wearing a tutu (incorrectly) and showing off a bit of those b-cups that Finn slobbered over on last week’s episode. Was it too racy? Totally normal for a 24-year-old to show a little skin? More »
Join Crushable For Our ‘Sunday Night Live’ Chat!
We had so much fun watching BoardWalk Empire and Bored To Death last weekend that we decided to make it a weekly feature. But there’s so much good stuff on television Sunday nights that we’re having trouble deciding what to watch. More »
Poll: What Do You Think Of Lea Michele’s Boob Flash In Fashion Mag?
Lea Michele is best known for two things: Playing the uptight, divalicious Rachel Berry on Fox’s Glee, and acting like an uptight, divaclicious biatch with boyfriend Theo Stockman IRL. So we were kind of shocked to see Lea baring her B-cups with barely some crepe paper between her and her viewing audience in the UK edition of Marie Claire. Yikes! It’s like last week when Rachel decided to go all Britney Spears, circa 2000.
But is Lea’s distancing herself from her goody-goody two-shoes character really the best idea for her image? Sure, she looks more grown up, but is it trashy? Tell us what you think in our poll below, along with the full-sized picture. (Barely NSFW, but we wanted to let you know.) More »
Poll: Where Will You Wear Your Spirit Hood?
A lot of time, publicists email us with press releases for products we would never in a million years care about. But once in awhile, you find a diamond in the rough. Such is the case with Spirit Hoods, which are made in the “‘Spirit Den’ in the heart of LA” and are basically giant fake furt hats with sleeves and paws attached. No, they aren’t for Halloween, they are for every day-wear. Ke$ha wears them! So we turn to,… More »
Poll: Guys Carrying Around Teddy Bears For Comfort – ‘Aw’ or ‘Ew’?
A new study shows that 1 out of 4 adult guys carries some sort of plushie totem around while traveling. (By the way, who is funding the world’s worst studies these days?)
Which is cute in a way, especially if it’s a reminder of your daughter or something your wife gave you. But then there’s this:
The stuffed animal supposedly reminds them of home and — some say — helps fill a cuddle-void left by distant partners.
Okay…cute. But then the next paragraph: More »
Poll: Are Drew Barrymore and Justin Long Insufferable Or Adorable?
Are they or aren’t they? That’s the question most people have to the ambiguous relationship between Justin Long and Drew Barrymore. The maybe-couple are co-starring in their second movie (after He’s Just Not That Into) in Going the Distance: A film about long-distance dating that doesn’t look half bad just on the basis of its supporting cast.

Poll: Will You Go See ‘Scott Pilgrim’ Or ‘Eat Pray Love’?
Here at Crushable HQ, we’re torn: Two buzzy movies arrive in theaters tonight – that would Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Eat Pray Love – and we don’t know which to see. We want to see both: More »
No, You DON’T Think Blake Lively Shows Too Much Cleave
We asked, you answered! In our poll “Does Blake Lively Show Too Much Cleave?” a majority of you - 62% to be exact – agreed that the sexy Gossip Girl star we love to objectify looks curvalicious. However, 33% of poll-takers sniffed, “Yes – put those puppies away.” The rest of you were all, “Who is Blake Lively?”
So, note to Blake’s boob-haters: You are in the minority…. More »
Poll: Do You Think TV Needs More Gay Characters?
Television sitcoms have regularly come under fire over the years for not including enough minorities, whether they be women, racially diverse characters or lesbians and gay men. Responding to recent criticism from GLAAD, CBS programming exec Nina Tassler announced yesterday that the network would be adding gay characters to three shows. Do you think that was a smart move?
Tell us in our poll: do you think TV needs more gay characters? Or should programming execs focus on making shows more… More »
Poll: Does Blake Lively Show Too Much Cleave?
Blake Lively has glorious breasts, no question. We’ve written about them in the context of her plunging V go-to style. We’ve objectified them. Girlcrush. Is that wrong?
When she came to Comic-Con to promote The Green Lantern, her outfit was not out of the ordinary for Blake: She knows what works for her – and what’ll get her photographed – and in Blake’s case, it’s her tanned and toned Amazonian body. Oh, who are we kidding? It her rack!!!!

Poll: Which Famous Taylor Is Your Favorite?
We’ve noticed we write a lot about Taylor here at Crushable — but there are so many Taylors in Hollywood right now it’s hard to keep track of which one we write about more. There’s pop princess Taylor Swift, former Gossip Girl actress Taylor Momsen, Twilight star and ab-licious teenager Taylor Lautner and Friday Night Lights star and ab-licious 20-something actor Taylor Kitsch. Not to mention the Taylor of our middle school dreams, Taylor Hanson. Which of these famous Taylors… More »
Poll: Will You Watch ‘Abusers’?
Not all reality TV is a fluffy guilty pleasure. Just look at important and disturbing shows like Intervention and Hoarders. Soon, another serious reality show will join the list, Abusers, “a new intervention-style reality show that depicts real-life cases of domestic violence and offers counseling and support for both the abuser and the victim.”
We have to admit to being skeptical about shows like Intervention, but while watching it, it’s clear producers are sensitive to the challenges and pitfalls… More »
Poll: Where Else Can We Send Justin Bieber Besides North Korea?
You know, we generally don’t support the Internet pranks of 4Chan, which can be equally mean-spirited, dogmatic, and in some cases actually harmful (though when it comes to things like bringing down Scientology with their Anonymous group, they can actually be seen as crusaders of a sort), but their newest plot to vote Justin Bieber into North Korea is actually brills. Not brilliant; “brills.” The word “brills” was invented for stunts like this, which will never actually get off the… More »
Half Of You Hated Miley’s ‘MuchMusic’ Outfit
Miley continued her tough Coyote Ugly look at an MTV performance yesterday (see: photo above). Despite the low-slung leather pants, bodysuit and flashes of skin, her ensemble wasn’t nearing as scandalous as what she wore to sing at Sunday’s MuchMusic awards show.
Surprise! In our Miley-focused poll yesterday, 50% of you found the singer’s MuchMusic garb so offensive, you deemed it “heinous.” Meanwhile, 26% selected “trashy but cute,” 15% picked “Derivative — from Xtina’s closet, circa 2002,” and the rest –… More »
