Chace Crawford & Ed Westwick Play Some B-Ball

New scenes for 'Gossip Girl'
Monday, February 23rd, 2009

New scenes are being filmed in NYC this week for upcoming episodes of The CW hit show Gossip Girl as co-stars Chace Crawford (Nate Archibald) and Ed Westwick (Chuck Bass) were spotted on a public basketball court earlier today shootin’ hoops and shootin’ new scenes:


As you may recall, a couple of weeks ago we saw photos of GG’s Leighton Meester gettin’ smoochy with one of her male co-stars (mebbe one of these guys, mebbe not) but it would seem that Gossip Girl is also workin’ on their bromance story lines as well. HMMM. After the jump, check out a few more photos of Chace and Ed goin’ at it on the basketball court …

Prince Harry Begins His Military Pilot Training

He feels the need, the need for speed
Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Prince Harry was spotted last week in his military training garb at RAF Barkston Heath in Lincolnshire beginning his initial training sessions to become a pilot in Her Majesty’s Armed Forces … here are a few photos of Harry getting himself familiarized with the controls of a Slingsby Firefly plane:


I must admit, Harry looks a might better as Top Gun-like airman than Prince William does as an In the Navy seaman. I’m not sure if the British Armed Forces have the same sort of training practices that we have here in the US (at least in movies) but I’m hoping that Harry will, one day soon, get himself a kickass pilot nickname … like Condor or Velociraptor or something like that. I doubt he’ll get saddled with a nickname like Maverick, Goose or Ice Man but at least we can hope for something cool. After all, look what having a fun Top Gun nickname did for Tom Cruise.

Bump Watch #2: Nicole Richie

Here we go again
Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Here is one of the first photos of Nicole Richie, out with her boo Joel Madden, that was snapped after news came out that she is pregs with the couple’s second child. Altho Nicole isn’t really showing yet, we can now be very sure that she is pregs and her tiny bump should be popping out anytime now:


As some of you may recall, Nicole had herself one of the cutest little baby bumps around when she was pregs with Harlow Winter and she was deffo one of the most stylish pregnant women ever. And all of you are well aware that the couple makes cute babies. I cannot wait to see Nicole carting around her little bump again. And so … Bump Watch #2 for our dear Nicole is now underway. I can’t wait to see more!

One Of ‘The Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ Cannot Pay Her Bills

It's also the one who cannot sing or buy a nice wig
Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Pink reader Jason gave me the head’s up that one of the Real Housewives of Atlanta had to have her official blog site shut down due to “non-payment”. It appears that the horribly tragic Kim Zolciak (the real “Housewife” who thought she could sing and only managed to EMBARRASS herself on national television when she tried to show off her skills) cannot afford to pay her webhosting bills and had to have her creditors post this message on her official site:


Sad. But, hilarious. As much as I cannot stand Kim, I really do love The Real Housewives of Atlanta (they’re my faves) and I am very much looking forward to watching her future pathetic attempts to garner fame and fortune in season 2 of the show. There has been much said about the “fakeness” of my fave Housewife Nene Leaks but this just proves that Kim is the fake one … who can’t pay her bills … or find a wig that fits. Incidentally, you might recall that this same thing happened to Michael Lohan when he didn’t pay his webhosting bills. Not that I’m trying to offer any help to either of them, but Kim and Michael are of the same sorry ilk and would prolly do much better if they teamed up to become one mega pathetic Z-list couple. Between the two of them, I’m sure they could afford to pay for webhosting a blog … I think. Mebbe they should just go with one of those free accounts to avoid this sort of embarrassment in the future … but, then again, what fun would that be for us?

Would You Rather Smell Like Céline Dion Or Jenna Jameson?

Why choose?! Smell like BOTH!
Monday, February 23rd, 2009

The world of celebrity fragrances just got a little bit bigger … both Céline Dion and former-porn star Jenna Jameson are comin’ at us with with new perfumes for those special ladies that want to smell like their fave celebs. So, if you’re in the market to smell like an overbearing French-Canadian chanteuse than Chic by Céline Dion is for you. If, instead, you’d like to smell like a pioneering porn star business woman, than Heartbreaker by Jenna Jameson is more your style. Here is the promo ad for Céline’s new fragrance for those of you interested:


Celine Dion is at it again, adding another scent to her growing fragrance empire. Campaign images for the singer’s sixth major fragrance, Chic, will appear in-stores only in April before hitting European magazines next fall, but PEOPLE.com has nabbed an exclusive first look. The ads, which feature the jet-setting star boarding a plane, are meant to reflect a fresh take on fragrance and are inspired by the diva’s sense of style and dynamic personality. “Celine Dion Chic is for the woman who seeks affordable luxury, who wants to project a sense of style with confidence and glamour,” explains Steve Mormoris, Coty’s Senior Vice President of Global Marketing. But what does the diva herself think? “For me, this fragrance truly embraces the glamour of fashion with a sophisticated edge,” says Celine in a statement. “I hope all women feel as elegant and feminine as I do when wearing this fragrance.” Fans will have to wait to sample the scent until it hits stores in April — just as the singer’s Taking Chances world tour wraps up.

Not really your thang? Then, after the jump check out the new promo image for Jenna Jameson’s new fragrance Heartbreaker to see if it’s more your style …

West Hollywood’s Hottest Oscar Party

The TV Guide
Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Well … at least it was the funnest ;) Last night, David and I hosted our first shindig in our new home and had over a few friends to watch the Academy Awards with us. We rolled out an actual red carpet (well, towel) and had each guest pose for the paparazzi (well, my digicam) and then snacks, food and booze was had by all. Here are some photos of the red carpet arrivals:


Here are a few more arrivals pics and a few pics of the winners from last night’s Guess the Oscar Winner game:


It turns out that Mike won first prize — his own Snuggie! Darion won second prize, a Jack Bauer from 24 action figure and Alek took home third prize, a limited edition Echo from Dollhouse action figurine. After all the ballots were tallied and the prizes were handed out, it turned out that there was an error in calculation (math was never my strong suit) and Darion and Alek tied for second place. Fortunately, the award for tying for second place is a limited edition Echo from Dollhouse action figurine. So, yay!!!

The party went off without a hitch, we all had a great time. Everyone went home with a giftbag full of goodies … DVDs, CDs, nosiemakers, slap bracelets and an official Pink is the new Blog sticker! Yay!!!

I did get some bad news yesterday, tho. My mom was injured in an accident late Saturday night and had to get stitches in her head. She’s OK but after hearing her on the phone I decided to fly home to see her for a few days. I leave tonight and arrive early tomorrow morning. I’ll be there until Thursday. Posting should still be on schedule but depending on how things go over the next few days, it might be a little slow. In any event, I hope y’all had a great Oscar night last night … and I also hope you take some time to tell the people in your life how much you love them.
