The editor of the National Enquirer drops a Dostoevsky reference and the words "philippic" and "verisimilitude" in a WSJ op-ed to tell the mainstream media: You're just mad you got scooped on the summer's best fucking-related stories. [WSJ]
Making their first public appearance since she gave birth to baby Sunday Rose in July, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban spent Monday night at the National Movie Awards in London.
Wearing a gem-encrusted shift minidress from the Prada Resort collection, Nicole was on-hand as she presented the award for Best Musical to the Abba flick “Mamma Mia” at the glitzy ceremony.
Gracing the red carpet with her presence, Emma Watson was on hand at the National Movie Awards 2008 at London’s Royal Festival Hall on Monday (September 8).
Wearing a white Victorian style dress with a jewel embedded bust paired with matching studded peep-toe pumps, the “Harry Potter” starlet graciously posed for pictures and signed autographs for fans on her way inside.
Out and about taking care of her daily errands, Jessica Alba was spotted paying a visit to a friend’s house in Los Angeles on Thursday (September 4).
In fine form following the birth of her daughter, the “Sin City” starlet looked cute in a lacy white scoopneck top underneath a black cardigan sweater with baggy white trousers and white flip flops.
I recently started subscribing to National Geographic, and its coverage of Stonehenge and jungles is incomparable. But I'm convinced that the sly geography wonks on its editorial staff get their kicks each month by selecting the most insane letters to the editor, and putting them into the magazine. The new issue has letters about a March story on animal intelligence. They must have gotten thousands! So who's represented? Inexplicable dog haters, lamb-whisperers, and schizophrenics:
From Leslie White, Tacoma, Washington:
Of all the animals you could have chosen for the cover story about animal minds, you chose a dog. Why not a dolphin, ape, or raven? Dogs are so overdone—and they're also destructive and noisy.
From Ed Healy, San Francisco, California:
Last year I stayed in a place in Mongolia where two lambs were tied up near a stairway. One looked at me with an expression I can only describe as abject terror...Did these lambs know they were going to be killed? Judging by the looks they gave me, I would have to say they did.
From Joyce Weiss, Wynnewood, Pennsylvania:
I swear my golden retriever Chaucer said "hi" to me one morning. I had no witnesses but didn't need any. When a dog looks at you with love in its eyes and whispers, "Hi," it is the sweetest sound imaginable. I've never doubted that animals have more intelligence than some people. Once animals learn to use the computer, we will all be convinced.
Yes.

It’s a very precarious time in Hollywood these days. With the writers’ strike still marching on, celebrities are getting a little cabin fever, so to speak, with regard to awards shows. And with the Golden Globe cancellation this past weekend, Hollywood’s elite are desperate for exposure.
Last night, the National Board of Review held their awards ceremony, honoring greatness in Hollywood productions. And the A-list of celebrities in attendance was a welcome change from the recent writers’ strike drought.
