Did everyone see the in-depth interview with Conan O’Brien on 60 Minutes on Sunday? If not, you can watch it on CBSNews.com.
But that’s beside the point.
The most important thing that came from that segment was the shot of Conan and friends in a room that had black Ikea area rugs marked with little squiggly [...]
This is news that I is kind of relevant (a.k.a. filler on my blog)
Isaac Mizrahi probably went to the same “fashion designers can be directors” school as Tom Ford because he’s going to “direct and design a production of the Stephen Sondheim-Hugh Wheeler tuner “A Little Night Music” at Opera Theater of St. Louis in [...]

Apparently, the eccentric thespian John Malkovich is taking a crack at “fashion design” (emphasis on the quotes) – and why not? If Sarah Jessica Parker could do it with Halston and the Olsen twins can be members of the CFDA, then it’s the most logical decision that he could make.
Malkovich told CNN.com “I’ve always had [...]

+ No more Glee until April 2010 – but thank God for Hulu (and P.S. Did anyone else get “you go girl!” goosebumps from Amber Riley’s opening number?)
+ Top Chef finds a winner and it isn’t Kevin. It’s a Voltaggio brother. Which one? I’ll give you a hint: it’s the one that shows [...]

- And there’s no other way to celebrate an H&M collabo by suing your mom. Yes, we’re talking to you Tamara Mellon.
- Angelina Jolie is slated [...]

Twilight: New Moon hasn’t even come out and websites are already posting pictures from Eclipse, the third installment of the soon-to-be fatigued vampire tween saga – and the picture they put in People magazine is the most boring piece of bullcorn I have seen:
Really? People are hyping up this movie with a picture of the [...]

Well, of course I should be – check out this story from the peeps at Gawker:
…Miley Cyrus pulled her eyelids back to look like an Asian caricature.
People are offended, obviously. Asian American group OCA (we’re guessing it stood for “Organization of Chinese Americans” at one point?) made a statement to TMZ:
…Not only has Miley Cyrus [...]

- Pantone picks mimosa as the color of 2009. In a close second was Sunny Delight orange.
- Thierry Mugler is set to costume Beyonce’s tour. I am sure House of Dereon is extremely disappointed.
- I finished reading Revolutionary Road and then watched a screening the next day. Besides being scared out of settling down [...]
