A Show Of Friendship

Or is it 'Friendship For Show'?
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Who says there’s any bad blood between The Hills co-stars Audrina Patridge and Lo Bosworth? Not I! For how can I ever doubt the bond of friendship that exists between these obvious BFFs after seeing these new photos of the pair shopping together (whilst filming scenes for the coming season of The Hills) at the Fred Segal boutique in West Hollywood, CA (the very same store were Britney Spears recently did some shoe shopping) this earlier this week:


HMMM … there may have been some bad blood between these ladies last season on The Hills but it looks like they’ve put all that negativity behind them. At last … it looks like all well in the land of The Hills. Meh … all this lovely dovey stuff’ll prolly only last an ep or two.

Back In The Habit

Waitaminute ... wasn't Amy Winehouse *just* in the hospital?
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

It would seem that Amy Winehouse is feeling much better since being released from the hospital just a few days ago. Despite the fact that she is showing the symptoms that might lead to the development of emphysema and despite the fact that she had to be hospitalized for about a week after passing out on her doorstep, Amy Winehouse is back into the swing of her crazy life. Here are new pics of Amy checking out some magazines before picking up a few bottles of booze (to her credit, mini bottles of booze — Smirnoff vodka and two bottles of Jack Daniels whiskey) at a convenience store in London after visiting her husband Blake Civil-Fielder in jail (on charges that he attempted to pervert justice) earlier today:


Also to her credit, she looks pretty good … better than I’ve seen her in I don’t even know how long. I understand that Amy picked up her supplies on her way to Hyde Park for rehearsals ahead of Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday concert scheduled for tomorrow night. I’m sure the promoters were thrilled that she thought ahead to bring her own pocket-sized booze. HMMM … does anyone else think that Nelson Mandela deserves better?

Grade A, Choice Beef

Can you guess who owns this sexy bod?
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

So … there’s been a lot of hawt beef on the blog today so let’s take the hawtness level down a notch (well, depending on your tastes, this might ratchet the hawtness level up a bit) … can you guess which A-List celeb was spotted sporting all this body on the set of his new movie which is currently filming in Hawaii?


If you’ve been paying attention over the past few days around here, you might have a pretty good idea who it is. After the jump, find out if you’re right by checking out a couple new photos of this shirtless wonder …

Cristiano Ronaldo Vacays In Sardinia

Doesn't need a speedo to bring the hawtness
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Here’s a bit more hawtness to follow up on the new Becks bulge that we’ve been treated to already today … soccer, sorry, fútbol superstar Cristiano Ronaldo (who plays for Becks’s old team Manchester United) was spied sunning it up in Sardinia, Italy this week and thus far I’ve been far from impressed with what I’ve been seeing … all his canoodling with his ladyfriend isn’t really all that interesting to me. I find these photos of the lad all by himself much more appealing:


You know, I’m never quite sure what goes well with short swim trunks … it’s good to know that a simple rosary adds just the right flair to the ensemble. WOOOO man, those bronzed muscles look great glistening in the sun … I have to make a note to get my ass to the beach as soon as I get back to LA. Sure, Cristiano won’t be walking around in SoCal but seeing these pictures of him has inspired me to take in the local sights available to me at home ;) When does this guy get his own underwear ad campaign? Someone needs to sign him up, like, NOW!

Even More Beckham Bulge On The Loose

Four down, one more to go
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

The blog We Love Beckhams has come across two more David Beckham photos from the new Fall/Winter Armani Underwear ad campaign. Previously we got to see the first two photos from this Armani Underwear campaign (HERE and HERE) and now we get two more photos from the same batch, which appear in the latest issue of Grazia magazine:


Woot! Me likey! Personally, I think this batch of Becks bulge pics for Armani Underwear are much hotter than the first batch we got at the beginning of the year. I understand that there are supposed to be 5 photos in total from this new batch … that means there should be one more pic on the way. EmporioArmani.com has been updated for the new Fall/Winter campaign but, thus far, the site only features one new photo of David Beckham (the one where he’s wearing the black undies while in repose). Must have more Beckham bulge!!! I hope the final photo does come out soon :)

Liz Phair Brings ‘Guyville’ To NYC

The TV Guide
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Last night Liz Phair played the first of two sold out shows at the Hiro Ballroom here in NYC and I was fortunate enough to attend last night’s show. Because my ticket came thru at the last minute (thanks Tito!), I wasn’t able to secure a plus one ticket but there was no way I wanted to miss last night’s show. Liz Phair is doing a very short tour (only 3 cities) in support of the 15th anniversary redux version of her amazing debut album Exile In Guyville. On Monday she played San Francisco, CA, on Tuesday she played her hometown of Chicago, IL and last night/tonight she plays NYC. Here are a few of my pics from last night’s show:


Liz was in fine form last night. I’ve been lucky enough to see her a few times on tour (in Detroit, Toronto, Grand Rapids) but never in such an intimate setting as last night’s concert. The Hiro Ballroom is tiny and the stage was practically in the middle of the audience … pretty much everyone in the place was close enough to reach out and touch Liz on stage. I loved every second of her performance. She played all 18 of the songs on Exile in Guyville and an extra encore set of 3 extra songs, one of which was a new as-yet untitled song. After the jump, check out more pictures from last night’s show, the full set-list, some of Liz’s quotes from the stage and a video of her new, untitled song …
