Simple Explanation For Obama-Johansson Emails

  • Maybe Barack Obama surprised Scarlett Johansson with a bunch of long emails because her brother, Hunter, works for him. Uh, sure. [P6]
  • Richard Dreyfuss had a close encounter of the strip club kind. For "several hours." Or just maybe it was some other balding, white-haired, older white guy in a strip club. But what are the odds of that? [P6]
  • That big $2 million performance Amy Winehouse snagged? The one for the Russian oligarch? She landed in Russia drunk/high and stumbled down the carpet two hours late. Then she flashed the audience. So it's not clear what the source who says "she still put on a terrific show" means, exactly. [R&M]
  • The marriage of Madonna and Guy Ritchie has entered the "Kabbalah Marriage Counseling" phase. [Fametastic]
  • Apparently 50 Cent finds naked girls waiting for him in his hotel room closets. He throws them out because "I don't want no [beep] that costs $50." Wow, no wonder all the businessmen are always so happy in those Holiday Inn Express ads. [P6]
  • Naomi Campbell settled with a Slovakian housekeeper who said she was abused and mocked by Campbell for her language skills. As though any housekeeper who could read or hear things in English would ever take a job with Naomi Campbell. [Showbiz Spy]
  • Singer Lance Bass' ex-boyfriends hooked up with each other, and the Post finds this touching, because it is a big supporter of gay unions. [P6]

Celebrities Well Aware That You Hate Them

Ryan Seacrest, American Idol emcee and probable gay, graces the cover of Details this month, looking forlorn next to a headline that reads "Ryan Seacrest Knows What You Think of Him." It's remarkably similar to Lance Bass's January Advocate cover, which featured the pensive-looking "singer" and the sad statement that "Lance Bass Knows You Talk Trash About Him." Why the similarities? Why the self-pity?? Jossip suggests it's because, you know, "there are so few things you can say about gay people to make them sound interesting." This is true! Also, no one likes Ryan Seacrest or Lance Bass. Click here for larger image, at Jossip.

Celebrity Sightings, Freelance Job Make A Vicious Beating Worthwhile!

It was Saturday, March 24th at 10:50 p.m. Ken Derry, an aspiring writer and head of publications for the Yankees, was surrounded by a group of teenagers. They attacked him, twice! Derry's assailants punched his face in and even pushed his girlfriend. But it wasn't that bad a night, in the end. For one thing, as he writes, he got a published story out of it! More »

Is Part Two of the Lance Bass Autobiography In The Works?

Last night at a David Kuhn-thrown party at Hotel QT, (more later) we ran into Patrick Price, who was Lance Bass's editor Simon Schuster editor Out of Sync: A Memoir. You can look it up, he is the 66th person thanked (after "all my buddies at NASA," God and Jamie Lynn Sigler). Price is a smart looking petite gay man. Bass is the lesbian from 'N Sync who wanted to be an astronaut. So how was working with young Mr. Bass? There was a long pause and a 'how do I say this without getting fired' look: "I mean it's very much Lance Bass. It's very unfiltered." To wit: "We had such starlight in our eyes, we believed we were going to blow everybody away. Then the final votes came back and it turned out we'd lost—to a girl who was deaf!" [Page 10] But more important were questions of the future, not the past. Would there be a Out of Sync Two (perhaps even titled A Life Lived Bass Ackwards?). Price smiled shiftily: "Well, his life continues. There might be a volume two!"

Lance Bass Still Gay; Possibly Also Alcoholic

Publicist Ken Sunshine perhaps needs to take a small vacation? In response to questions about a claim his client Lance Bass made in an interview about having been married in Vegas seven years ago (to a woman), Sunshine said that Bass had in fact, never been married and replied: "By saying he was married in Vegas, it was a way to get free drinks." Way to quash those barely-at-bay rehab rumors.

Oh noes! The gays are giving Lance Bass' memoir "Out of Synch" a bad review! Apparently the book is full of "ego-stroking and cattiness" and THEY DON'T LIKE THAT, the gays. (Um?) [After Elton]

Not only does Village Voice gossip Michael Musto mention barebacking twice in this week's column, but, the following pickup line actually worked on him last week: "You're lovely. I want you to ride me all night. Why are we still here?" (See? Didn't even have to use a neg!) Last we saw Mr. Musto—last night, leaving Lance Bass's book party at 8:53 p.m. (the party started at 8:00, Lance arrived at 8:20), he was in the company of a young hottie. Is our Musto the new gay mack daddy? The boy was saying "I have about 15 drink tickets left!" Young and thirsty, just the way we like 'em too!

Lindsay Lohan Stole A Utah Gal's Fiance

  • Oops, that snowboarder named Riley who Lindsay Lohan had a rehab romance with was already engaged to someone else. [Us Magazine]
  • Britney Spears was one of the first people who Lance Bass told when he came out of the gay closet. "[After her first marriage], I knew she was about to go through a lot of crap. I felt the need to share something. So I sat her on my bed, and I'm like, Well, I'm gay!" Lance says Britney was "surprised." God she is dumb. [Page Six]
  • Ellen Degeneres, dog adoption gone awry, something something. [TMZ]

    Lance Bass And 'New York' In Spatty Meowfest

    For a brief glimpse of a moment last week we genuinely liked Lance Bass. He'd just given an interview with New York mag's party hobbit Jada Yuan in which he A) bitched accurately about the NY real estate market B) dissed astutely Justin Timberlake's new restaurant and C) copped admirably to being the worst dancer in 'N Sync. "I've been a few times," he said about Southern Hospitality. "But it's really up there. The Upper East Side? I'm not in college anymore." Now Bass claims that he said no such things and he's demanding a retraction. More »

    Get Ready For The 'Bass Ackwards' Book Club

    Excellent news, people. Lance Bass, who refers to himself as LBeezy, writes on his MySpace blog that "Howdy!! I just got the cover from my publisher of my book! It is under my pics because I dont know how to post it here. And since we are on the subject I just want to say I do not want my book to flop! One funny night I decided to "jokingly" say "oh it will probably flop" to a TMZ "reporter". (like all my quotes?) Again it was a joke. Im not an idiot— I wrote this book so that it might help those out there interested in the music industry, space, and/or coming out storit?y." So many topics!! How will the bookstores know where to shelve this one? (Hint: "space.")

    Scenes From A Ball

    Heatherette's fantastical, Tinsley Mortimer-studded voyage to the Life Ball in Vienna occurred over Memorial Day weekend, as James Kurisunkal and his email aliases so reliably informed us, but it's taken the Post's Brian Niemietz until now to recover from the festivities enough to tell us about them. And oh, what a Ball it was!
    Lance Bass accidentally smashed a champagne flute against a fellow partygoer's mouth while dancing wildly, thus requiring stitches. It wasn't until the next morning that the smashee, a makeup staffer on the trip, realized glass shards were embedded in his bleeding lip. Luckily, a dentist and volunteer organizer named Fernando was on hand to provide stitches.
    Could this be the gayest paragraph ever to have appeared in the Post? All Cindy Adams columns excluded, of course. More »

    Jon Bon Jovi Won't Play BEA

    Very bad news! Fans of Jon Bon Jovi will have to wait "indefinitely" to read the "never-before-told stories of Jon's experiences as a screen actor, as well as insights into his commitment to social and political causes; and behind-the-scenes descriptions of the songwriting sessions that gave birth to some of the greatest hits of the modern era" in his bio, Believe, which has been "postponed" by Random House imprint Flying Dolphin Press. But it gets worse: The book's unreadiness for publication means that Bon Jovi won't play their hotly anticipated Book Expo America benefit concert (sharing a bill with Amy Grant! Baby, baby!). Still there's hope: if a new headliner can be arranged, the BEA allows that the show might be able to go on. "Our minds are very open," their event planner tells Bookslut. In that case! How about the author of the soon to be classic Out Of Sync? Yes, Lance Bass comes out (har) in October. —emily

    Retitle Lance Bass's Gaymoir!

    Former boybander Lance Bass, who not-shocked the world with an announcement of his gayitude this past summer, has just sold a memoir to classy S&S imprint Simon Spotlight Entertainment. It's called Out Of Sync, and it's "a 'candid' book about his life, his music, and his life as a gay man." We like the concept, but frankly, we think the title needs some work! Here are a few of our suggestions. We implore you to leave yours in the comments.
  • A Life Lived Bass Ackwards
  • Lance Bass: Reaching For The Stars (get it? because he wanted to charter a space shuttle?)
  • Bi Bi ... Actually, Just Really Gay
  • Tearin Up My Fart
  • Here's What I'LL Say, Reichen, You Cheating Bastard
