Here are a couple pics of a very normal-looking David and Victoria Beckham lounging by the pool at their Beverly Hills, CA home with some family members yesterday afternoon. The scene looks nice and relaxed, Becks (of course) looks hawt, Vicki B. looks totally unmade and I think she’s walking around with a Styrofoam plate of potato salad. This has to be the most down-to-earth image of the family I think we’ve seen in ages:

I’m not entirely sure which Beckham boy is on VB’s lap but I’m gonna guess Romeo since he tends to love sitting on his mother’s lap. I love these pics … they’re so … normal. No pretense, no outrageous fashion … just a good ol’ fashioned afternoon by the pool. Love it.

EWWWWWWW … poor Diddy. Here are a few unnecessary yet kinda funny pics of Diddy stepping in a pile of canine excrement (it’s the nicest way I could think of to describe it) while walking the streets of NYC yesterday afternoon:

I know, I know … pics like these are totes unnecessary and I’m really not trying to incur the wrath of the fates by posting them but … it’s Diddy … in poop … LOL.

Teen Vogue magazine held their 6th Annual Young Hollywood Party at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in SoCal last night and managed to cull together only the biggest names in Young Hollywooddom (like Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens) … and a whole bunch of young nobodies (pretty much everyone else). Here are a few pics from the event’s red carpet arrivals last night:

Well, you know that Zac had to be there since he is on the cover of the current Young Hollywood issue of Teen Vogue … and where Efron goes, Vanessa isn’t too far behind. The rest of the celebs who showed up were … well … in my opinion, less than stellar. Without any of the Gossip Girl kids or any of the girls from 90210 in attendance, I’m not sure what Teen Vogue was thinking by parading around these leftovers … the Willis sisters and the Sprouse brothers aren’t my idea of the future of Hollywood, sorry ’bout it. Meh. The party looks like it was a big dud.

The sixth season of Project Runway, which will be moving from Bravo to Lifetime TV, has a tentative debut date of January 20, 2009 and has already secured the first celebrity guest judge — Lindsay Lohan. I gotta say, I kinda love it … and I’m encouraged that the move to Lifetime may not be so terrible after all:

Jennifer Lopez might have been forced to skip “Project Runway’s” season five finale due to a foot injury, but the hit reality design show will return in 2009 on Lifetime with Lindsay Lohan sitting in the guest judge’s chair for the season premiere. Access Hollywood has learned that the actress will help the judges decide whose fashion is fiercest for the show’s first episode on its new network. The 22-year-old actress, who has been in New York recently shooting episodes of “Ugly Betty,” filmed the premiere episode on Thursday. A source told Access the tentative premiere date for “Runway” on Lifetime is January 20, while the season five finale airs October 15 on Bravo.

IEEEE! While I still may have concerns over the new incarnation of the show that I love so dearly, I am really excited by this news. I knew that the contestants for season 6 had already been cast and I heard that filming was already underway but this is the first concrete news that we’ve gotten thus far. It’s interesting that the the premiere ep of season 6 for Lifetime was filmed one day before the season 5 finale ep for Bravo was filmed. Even tho there has been much talk about the new version of Project Runway moving to LA, I’m comforted by the fact that the season 6 premiere ep was filmed here in NYC. It’s still too early to make any judgments … but I’m pleased with this development and am really looking forward to seeing Linds as guest judge next season.

UPDATE: Pink reader Drew gives me the head’s up that Project Runway has begin filming in LA this week, the show has taken over the third floor of one of the buildings at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, he writes:

The rumors about Project Runway filming in LA aren’t rumors anymore. They’re
filming as we speak over at FIDM in downtown LA. They’ve taken over the 3 story in one of FIDM’s buildings. It’s exciting, but students are already passing around a petition stating how irritated they are. PR took over the newest addition to the school and have prevented the students from using the good equipment and supplies. They’re now stuck with hand-me down mannequins and machines and they are PISSED! Good public relations for FIDM, bad news for the students who are paying $25k a year to go there.

Interesting. It should be noted that The Hills also films at FIDM in LA … I wonder how they actually go about with all the teaching with all that filming going on. Also interesting, former Project Runway contestant Nick Verreos is now an instructor at FIDM … small world.

Last night David’s really good friends here in NYC and I conspired to pull together a small surprise early birthday party and we managed to pull it off successfully — he was totally surprised. Marissa was really the brains behind the operation but David’s sister Eden and I managed to keep him in the dark and clueless long enough to pull off the surprise. Here are a few pics from the fun last night:

We went to Sala in the East Village so that we could eat tapas and drink as much as we wanted in their cute little basement barroom. Much love goes out to Monique for sharing her fun photos from last night … I was too bizzy taking Polaroid pics (and have no access to a scanner here) to snap any regular digital pics so I’m thankful that she shared her pics. The party was really fun and all of David’s amazing friends did a great job to help kick off his birthday celebration :)

In a few hours, we jet off to Iceland and I’m SO excited!! I will be working thruout our trip but I must warn that Sunday might be a little hairy. David and I are going on an 8-10 hour glacier hiking trip so I’m not sure what my work day will be like on that day … I’ll do my best to make it up tho :) Keep an eye on my Twitter updates (right sidebar), I’ll be updating often with whatever is goin’ on. Click HERE to see the mobile phone pics that I will be snapping each day for my 365 project.

I’m geeked y’all … Iceland, here we come!!

107.5 The River managed to get their hands on a short clip of Britney Spears’s first single Womanizer off her new album Circus which is due to hit stores December 2. Womanizer isn’t due for an official release until September 22 but you can hear a clip of the song right now by clicking below:

Womanizer sounds a bit like her song Radar from her Blackout album. I think I’ll need to hear the song in full to make a full determination if I love it or not … but this little clip is a very nice tease. What do y’all think of the clip?
