I endorse this Gossip Roundup. Also, isn't it funny to think what Britney Spears' ode to threesomes would be at different points in her life? In the beginning it was spin the bottle with those thugs from Kids Incorporated, now, it's two male models or backup dancers or whatever, but in the middle, it was a Slurpee and a Seven-Layer Burrito with extra Fire Sauce. That video, I'd watch. #tomcruise
When I first heard Bronson Pinchot speak out of character, I had the same reaction as I did when I found out All in the Family and The Jeffersons were taped in Los Angeles.... pure shock and a feeling of being ripped off :[] #tomcruise
Perhaps this is already well-understood about the novel, but reading Fury, I felt like Rushdie was giving me an insight into his inner self that I wished he had kept to himself.
Every story about him since then has firmly supported that reading. #tomcruise
@92BuickLeSabre: That novel sucked the paint right off the walls. One of the few times a book has been so bad that I've been tempted to think anything good about the prior works was a mistake.

Did anyone else think Warren G deserved to get almost robbed in that song? Who jumps into a dice game on the corner of 21 and Lewis with a bunch of strangers? That's just asking for it.
Also, do you think that girl with the broken down car was cool with Nate just taking her to the East Side Motel like that? I mean she probably wants to call a tow truck or something, and now Nate Dogg's forcing her to go to an orgy?
I think if you look at Eric's interviews as a group, you'll see that he takes a consistently satirical approach, and that he was playing up his role as square clueless white guy here.
@the_coast_guard: Yeah. Seriously. Who do you have? No ID, who's been important for five minutes? Kanye? The Neptunes? Just Blaze? Timbaland? Or are you more a DJ Clue guy? I could keep going. No. I won't leave hip hop alone.
I love that most homophobic people seem to think being a lesbian is a phase one goes through in college or doesn't exist. I find it interesting that every time someone claims that they dislike homosexual PDA, they only talk about dudes.
Also, duh. Vanity Fair, and pretty much all magazine media, is hella racist. If you only hire the kind of person whose sole exposure to people of color is that one kid in school or the unfriendly black hottie table at Yale, you're going to run into article like this.
@Trulymadlyme: I think you are being too generous -- these magazines seem to mostly hire people who have met any non white person via pop culture because it's, you know, safer that way.
@IamnotStarJones: And GW at VF is playing the role of the Jester. I get it. But let's not pretend these few people of color running around Conde Nast (see ADT at Vogue) aren't basically just cashing in on stereotypes.
@Trulymadlyme: So when a Nilla racist who works for a magazine catering to Nillas scores an interview with a semi-enlightened homophobic black man, we get what, exactly?
1) A hot mess - like Nilla wafers and chocolate pudding microwaved on high for 10 minutes?

Oh, and houndstooth hats. In the South. So that in the summer heat the hats (and the men who wore them) smelled like a damp Cockapoo.

2) Ironic chocolate-covered pretzel logic?
3) Blithering, smug idiocy?
4) A splitting headache?
5) A galloping case of misanthropy?
