Gossip Girl hottie Chace Crawford was on hand at Two Trees Farm in Bridgehampton, NY for the opening day festivities for the 2008 Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge lookin’ very much like a big polo fan … but I suspect the lad has no real prior experience with the sport and was just there to pretty up the event. Here are a few pics:

Aww … it really looks like they handed him that huge polo mallet and asked them to just pose with it as if he knew what he was doing. To tell the truth, I don’t even care. He can stand there and hold in his hands whatever he wants and I think I’d be okay with it. It’s too bad his GG co-stars Ed Westwick and Penn Badgley weren’t around to attend the event with him … I like it when the GG boys horse around together. OY! What that terrible? Yeah, mebbe just a touch.

Here are a few pics of Ugly Betty stars Ana Ortiz and Eddie Cibrian filming new scenes for the upcoming third season of the show on location in Queens, NY earlier this week:

Now, while these pics would be much more … enjoyable … if Eddie were shirtless (which is really what everyone is waiting for whenever he shows up on TV), I can make do with his bulging muscles showing thru his tight shirt. I’m so glad he joined the cast of the show last season … I look forward to many more scenes of him mackin’ on Ana‘s character Hilda … hopefully shirtless and hopefully often.

Trent Reznor updated the official Nine Inch Nails website with a couple photos of the physical copies of the new NIN album The Slip. As you should be well aware, The Slip is available for free download HERE (it will always be available for free download) but physical copies have been made for the rabid NIN fans (like me) who want to own a hard copy. The domestic version of the album will be released in numbered limited edition and Trent is showing off the first and last numbered copies of the album:

I can’t wait to get my copy. I’ve already received confirmation from Amazon that my copy of The Slip is on its way. I’m fairly certain I won’t be getting either of these two copies of the album but I’m geeked to be getting a limited edition version of the album (international copies of the disc will be unnumbered, non limited edition). NIN hit the road for their Lights in the Sky tour next month … and I can’t wait for that either! More NIN, Trent … gimme more!

Ack … my time in LA is running out really fast so I’m scrambling today (as I usually do on travel days) to get everything done before I have to jet off to NYC this afternoon. I didn’t really leave the house — I had tons of cleaning and packing to take care of, which is fine, cuz I was finally able to finish watching all 7 seasons of The Golden Girls on DVD:

Now, it’s gonna take me some time to work up my Best Of post but it’s coming … stay tuned.

In all of my travel preparations I had to make time to figure out what to do with my brand new VW Tiguan crossover (which I love, love love). The car is only 3 days old and I’m already leaving it parked in my apartment garage for just over 2 weeks! In order to play it safe, I did get a car cover for my baby and had to tuck it in for a long sleep:

Hee hee … I’ve been kicking around German names for my new baby, I think I’m going to call it Wülfgang Jürgen-Klaüs … that has a nice ring to it, I think. It’s hard leaving my car so soon after bringing it home but … it must be done.

And so … I’m off to NYC for a few days before David and I fly off to London and then Paris. It’s deffo looking like it’s gonna be a great birthday trip … we’ve got a few things in mind to do — we’ll be seeing Kylie Minogue live in concert next weekend — so I’m pretty geeked. No worries, I’ll be working on a daily basis, as usual, so things should be relatively normal along the way. Wee!

• Tori Spelling is very excited to join Shannen Doherty on 90210.
• DMX enjoys his daily arrest.
• Batman: The Dark Knight is lookin’ to set the box office record for the biggest opening weekend ever.
• CBS says Katie Couric will be staying with them for some time.
• Coldplay
  

Woot! It’s that time of the week again … time for the Hot Dude of the Week … and since this week’s pic is way hawt, let’s just skip the formalities and get right to the goods … say hello to John:

Oh my lordy, lordy, lordy … what else is there to say. We’ve got a hot hunk of manbeef who is soaking wet … and he’s wearing white undies. There needs to be a stronger word than just Woot!, I think. This is Woot!10, this is Woot!imus Maximus :) See, it’s guys like John that make waking up on Sunday morning worthwhile … hee hee, it must be really nice for whoever gets to wake up with him on Sunday morning in person. If that person is out there … send us stories or, better yet, more pics. Yeah, that would be awesome. We’ll be waiting … and gawking. Enjoy!!

Lance Bass hosted a kickoff event for the 4th Annual GLSEN Respect Awards which was held at Blu in Beverly Hills, CA this past Friday and he called on a bunch of his friends, including new boyfriend Sebastian Leal, to come out in support. Here are a few pics from the event:

First off, much props and love goes out to Lance for his continued involvement with the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network. They provide such an important service for schools across the country. I worked with them extensively when I was a teacher back in Michigan and they were integral in helping us get our Gay, Straight Alliance club off the ground in a very conservative community. Props also go out to Lance‘s friends for coming out in support of this event. I love that Lance brought along Sebastian to attend the soiree as well … things must be pretty serious if he’s bringing the guy along as his date to public events (tho, I could do without the macho posturing in the first pic of the LaBastian). I absolutely and fully support Lance in all of his GLSEN endeavors and it is my pleasure to help spread the word.

The entire principal cast of the new Beverly Hills, 90210 spin-off show for The CW came out and made an appearance at the 2008 Summer TCA Tour which was held at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Bev Hills, CA yesterday afternoon … here are a few pics of some of the new faces that will be showing up at West Beverly High this Fall:

Even tho the amazing CONFIRMATION that Shannen Doherty WILL BE coming back to 90210 came out earlier this week, none of the former castmembers of BH, 90210 were at yesterday’s event. As I’ve been saying, they are not the main focus of the new show. This new cast of characters will be the central focus of the story and the other “guest stars” will provide support, linking the original show to the new show. I can’t wait … at first, I was very lukewarm to the idea of a 90210 spin-off but the more I hear about it, the more I see — I’m totally on board now. I just hope that my expectations haven’t been raised too high. BH, 90210 was such a cultural phenomenon the first time around, I’m not sure if this new incarnation will have the same impact. It’s possible but … the jury’s still out. Here’s hoping the kids at West Beverly High can take the country by storm again — but just in case, we still have the Upper East Siders on Gossip Girl to fall back on if need be.

Jessica Simpson played The Big Event (presented by Miller Lite beer) at the 16th Annual Country Thunder USA festival which took place yesterday on Shadow Hill Farm in Twin Lakes, WI and she brought along her boyfriend and Dallas Cowboy quarterback Tony Romo for support. Fortunately for her, Country music fans have been surprisingly receptive to Jess‘s attempt at a career in Country music (her first single, Come On Over, is being well received on Country radio) and yesterday’s performance was her big coming out party. Here are a few pics from her appearance and performance at The Big Event:

When Jessica Simpson announced plans to go country after her last pop album flopped, there was a collective eye roll in Nashville. To some skeptics, it appeared to be a calculated move to follow in the footsteps of other pop stars who have found success by crossing over to country radio. After lackluster album sales, acting disappointments and bad press over her high-profile romances, Simpson certainly needed a boost. But “Come On Over,” Simpson’s debut single from her upcoming country album, is not only winning over those same skeptics, it’s gaining ground on country radio. A flirtatious, steel guitar-laced slice of pop country, the song has cracked the top 30 on Billboard’s country singles chart. “The best way to sum this up is what program directors have been telling our promotions staff: ‘I really wanted to hate this record, and I don’t. I love this,” said Tom Baldrica, vice president of marketing for her label, Sony BMG Nashville. Despite her crossover potential, that’s not what the label or the Texas-born Simpson seem to have in mind with the single, which was co-produced by John Shanks, who’s also worked with Sheryl Crow, Michelle Branch and Melissa Etheridge. “If other folks want to play it, we’re not telling them not to,” Baldrica said, “but our focus is on country. We want to make sure she’s in this format because this is where she belongs.” John Hart, a Nashville-based marketing researcher, says the song appeals to young, active listeners who are more likely to call radio stations and attend concerts and events. It tested in the top five in his online sampling the past few weeks and also did well in random telephone surveys that reach country’s more traditional base. “I don’t think people were anticipating the song to be that good,” said John Paul, program director at KUPL in Portland, Ore. His station has been playing the song for two weeks in light rotation. “It’s a good song regardless of who sings it, but having her sing it — whether you like her or hate her, everybody knows who Jessica Simpson is,” he said. “And I think there’s a lot of credibility that she co-wrote the song … Simpson comes to country after her last pop album was a commercial and critical failure — it sold just 299,000 cop-ies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The album “Do You Know” is expected to be released in September; The title track was written by Dolly Parton, who sings background vocals. For her part, Simpson is promoting the song pretty much the same as any new country singer. She courted fans at last month’s Country Music Association festival in Nashville and will perform at state fairs and visit radio stations. “She’s done what a lot of newcomers and established stars have done by putting out fun, uptempo, put-the-top-down and cruise type songs,” remarked David Scarlett, senior editor of Country Weekly magazine. “It’s a great way to introduce herself. I think country audiences will be receptive based on the music they hear. If they like what they hear, they’re going to embrace her. And so far, she’s done very well.”

I may tease Jessica Simpson (incessantly) but for once I’m on board with her career plans. Jessica should’ve been a Country singer from the beginning … her vain attempt (mostly on her father’s part) to become the “next Britney Spears” back when Britney Spears ruled the world was doomed for failure from the get-go (I contend that Xtina Aguilera, who is a much stronger singer than both Jessica and Britney, couldn’t even topple Britney in when she was in her prime so what chance did Jessica really have?). This Country thing might actually work out for her very well. Teaming up with Dolly Parton is brills! I’m not a big Country fan (by any means) but I have a small place for it in my heart (living in Oklahoma gave me an appreciation for the stuff, I can’t lie) … I think it would be great if Jess found success at long last. Tho, she does have some stiff competition out there … Carrie Underwood is a force to be reckoned with (and you know there’s no love lost between Jessica and Carrie — who was Tony Romo‘s last girlfriend) but, in the end, I guess I’m rooting for Jessica. Egads, I can’t even believe I’m saying this … but it’s true. Good luck, Jess, you may need it.

Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey played host at an event here in LA last night for Generation Rescue, a non-profit organization that was formed by parents of children who have been diagnosed with childhood neurological disorders (Autism, Asperger’s, ADHD, ADD, PDD-NOS and other learning disabilities). Jenny became involved with the organization after she discovered that her son Evan suffers from autism. Some of Jenny Mac‘s friends — including Britney Spears, the newly single Sarah Silverman and Rose McGowan — came out to lend their support for the organization. Here are a few pics from the red carpet arrivals:

First off, what a great organization to lend your support to. So much is not known about these sorts of neurological disorders … I think it’s amazing that like-minded mothers got together to take an active step in creating awareness. I believe this is the first “non-party” event that Britney Spears has attended in many months. As you may recall, she agreed to let her ex-husband Kevin Federline have permanent physical custody of her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James earlier this week … and here she is, lending her support to charity (and lookin’ pretty hawt, I might add). I’m going to assume she had no ulterior motives for coming out to this event. In fact, I really do believe that all the celebs who came out last night did so for the right reasons. Kudos to Jenny and Jim for using their high profile celebrity to aid this cause. Color me impressed.
