The 20 Ugliest Celebrities

Lyle Lovett, Donatella Versace, Tori Spelling, the guy from The Pogues pictured above? Who's your pick for ugliest celebrity? 

Oddee.com posted their Top 20 list of ranky-rank celebs. And I have to say they did quite a nice job with their pickins. I agree with all, except they need to take Rosie O' off the list and replace her with one of two key players: Rumer Willis or Fergie!

I Have No Explanation for This, I'm Sorry

Not sure which is more alarming: Phoebe Price's choice of "outfit" at last night's Teen Choice Awards--or--the fact that Phoebe Price was even invited to the Teen Choice Awards. Wonder if she and Mariah exchanged fashion tips before attending the event.

I'm sure Michael K. is having a field day with this one.

Other hideous choices from the event included Minka Kelly's plain white dress and eye-blinding tan, Demi Lovato's horseback riding get-up, Selena Gomez' plastic-looking, fluorescent-colored blue shoes, Brittany Snow's neck bumps, Miley Cyrus' nightclub ensemble, and Kim Kardashian--yes, Kim Kardashian's choice of lipstick and church-going dress. She's been failing me a lot lately. [sigh]

In happier Teen Choice Awards fashion news, Blake Lively, Vanessa Hudgens and Katharine McPhee looking absolutely stunning at the event!

Guess the Hot Celebu-mom!


Do not adjust your computer screen, for this is not a joke. In wake of her son's DUI arrest over the weekend, Shia Le Boeuf's mom Shayna has surfaced. And it ain't pretty. And I hear Papa LB is even worse!
And you wonder why the kid has problems...

Hayden and the Chipmunks

Who knew Hayden Panettiere had such chubby cheeks? She can thank her new 'do for bringing that to the surface

Paint Yourself With the Colors of 90210


The popular nail polish line O.P.I.--known for developing themed shades often related to countries, seasons and so forth--will develop it's latest collection, titled "90210," in anticipation of the new spinoff series. Details related to the specific shades and their titles are not available just yet, but are to be released within the coming weeks.

Some possibilities are listed here

Why Eva, Why?


What is this crap? Eva Longoria chopped off her lovely locks so that she could give herself the 'do from hell. I wonder if Tony Parker is rethinking this marriage. Ugh. So gross. I actually thought she was quite attractive before this. [sigh]

UPDATE: Eva Longoria's rep Liza Anderson reveals exclusively to People.com that, "Eva is reflecting a change in her on-screen [Desperate Housewives] character Gabrielle — who goes from her usual sex kitten to an over-worked housewife with kids in season five. She’s making herself look like that as her character has let herself go. Gabrielle has gained weight and cut her hair. She’s a worn out mother with two kids.”

Thank goodness! At least there's a reason for this disastrous 'do!

Ali Lohan Loves Her Some Tranny Lips



An ever-gorgeous Ali Lohan graced television screens last night, with the debut of her made-to-match lipstick line: the Tranny Collectors Edition.

The lovely and talented Grammy award-winning vocalist displayed a flourescent shade of lip color that went identically with the hot pink top the famewhore wore on last night's episode of "Living Lohan."

And good heavens! For only being 14, Lohan already appears to be displaying facial expressions of cracked-outness just like big sis Lindsay!

SUCH a winning fam, I tell ya!

Seventeen Magazine Reminds Fat Girls That Lane Bryant is the Only Denim Line That Will Fit Them

As one of my favorite blogs, Jezebel, points out, Seventeen's latest mag issue (you know--the one with an utmost unflattering photo of Blake Lively adorning the cover) shoots down overweight women by listing different denim lines and the sizes they would wear in those lines, depending on your waist and hips. Well, the mag has no problem pointing out (see above) the fact that these jeans won't fit just anyone. Check out the "Sorry! They don't come in this size!" part of the chart. Gawd, why even bother listing them at all? Oh, that's right. Seventeen readers couldn't possibly be fat!

Eyes Lips Face Cosmetics : Bang For Your Buck Is An Understatement




Remember the make-up line Wet ‘N’ Wild? Well if you lived through the ‘80s, ‘90s or both, then of course you do. W’n’W was the so-called “line” (haha) of “cosmetics” you could buy at your local Sav-On for a whopping $.99. The line consisted of everything. You know, glosses, lipsticks, mascara, even face powder. I think the lipsticks were the most common. Anyone who lived through at least one of those decades knows that if they dug up an old handbag, they’d find a bright-colored melted Wet ‘N’ Wild stick smothered all over the faux-leather interior of their no-longer-used shoulder adornment.


Well how about a Wet ‘N’ Wild for the new gen? Okay, not to disappoint, but there will never be another W’n’W. The next time you’re craving a stick of hot purple or magenta lip spread, you’ll probably have to wait until Halloween. BUT… on the bright side, if you’re simply just looking for a way to spend (a LOT) less on makeup, Eyes Lips Face (e.l.f.) is the destination. Sold exclusively online, this more-than-affordable line of cosmetics features mascara, lip-liner, eyeliner, tweezers, bronzer, eye-shadow, lipstick, lip gloss, nail polish, lotion, brushes and so forth. And what’s amazing? Nothing costs more than a $.1 (no lie). And what’s even more amazing? The line is actually of quality!


I heard about the line a couple times from word-of-mouth (and if you go to the website, you’ll see the line is featured in past issues of Seventeen and Glamour), and though I am not one to do the whole online shopping thing, I decided to take a leap out of my norm and test this stuff out. I ended up purchasing about 16 items or so (the brushes never arrived, so they must be out-of-stock), and the price of the items, combined with shipping, was seriously less than the cost of an average dinner in my world.


I didn’t have many expectations from the inexpensively priced (and packaged) makeup goods, so I went into the trial process blindfolded in a sense. The result? Far more pleasing than could be expected. The eye-shadows and lipglosses are fantastic! The glosses are beautiful colors and the texture is nice—not to mention, the gloss stays on for quite some time. The eyeshadows are very pretty colors which can not only be worn wet, but mesh well, when applied under or over colors from different lines. The bronzer is not particularly bold-appearing or of deep color, so if you are really looking for a strong bronzer, I’d go with a MAC or NARS bronzer. But as for the e.l.f. bronzer, it does provide a pretty shimmer, if that’s the essence you are seeking. The lip liners and so forth are all decent. The only thing I used that I would not recommend (even for a dollar) is the tweezer. Being a tweezer fuh-reak (I own at least 10—literally), I have to say the e.l.f. tweezer is definitely the worst of my collection.


But overall, I definitely think everyone should check out the Eyes Lips Face website, and make some purchases. Plus, they usually have some free gifts included with practically any purchase. Hope you likey! Let me know!

Abigail Breslin : The Paradigm of Perfection


At only 12 years old, adorable Abigail Breslin absolutely shines in this beautiful little number at the NYC Premiere of "Kit Kittredge: An American Girl." Breslin is so adorable. I just want to adopt her! What a little princess.

…Because Everyone Should Get the Chance to Have a Nationally Publicized Sex Tape, Go to Jail and Desperately Seek a New BFF Via Reality-TV…


Jessica Simpson’s gonna be pissed! I thought her and BFF Ken Paves’ hair extensions were supposed to be the hottest. Silly me, what was I thinking? If it’s got Paris’ name attached to it, then it’s gotta be hot. And on ParisAndSally.com, the heiress states her claim rightfully so:

“Everyone should get the chance to be me. That's why I created the world's hottest hair extensions. Choose from ten fabulous shades and you will be a clip away from hotness.”

I’m so over all these stars promoting fake hair! When’s Kim Kardashian going to start promoting her own line of booty enhancers?

She's Got the Legs of a Supermodel!

Haha, no, really. Those are the ever-so-glamorous legs of "supermodel" Agyness Deyn. Pretty effing nasty, huh? Guess all that catwalk-ing gave 'er a bruisin! Or maybe she's been spending too much time with Amy Winehouse. Either way, guh-ross.

Amy Winehouse Re-Defines the Phrase "Bad Hair Day"


We've seen Amy look diasastrous plenty of times, but she typically keeps her hair-do consistent (not that I'm saying it's a good consistent, but at least it always looks the same). Here, it appears the troubled singer's mane got caught up in a tornado of sorts.

Check Me Out On the Style Network's Page

The people at the Style Network asked me to review a product. So I reviewed this deoderant which is claimed to last 7 days with just one application. Krayzie, eh? Wanna know if it worked? Click here to view my little review and photo (not the *most* flattering pic of me ever, but what can ya do?)

Best Looking Baby Adorns Best Looking Mag Cover


I’ve always had this infatuation w Brit and K-Fed’s kids (Tater Tot & Small Fry), and I’m not going to lie—I think little Suri Cruise is absolutely precious. Buttt… as much as I hate to admit it, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt is by far the most beautiful child perhaps ever to grace the planet (?). I mean when they said that the Brangelina spawn would be the best looking human ever, I honestly didn’t buy into the hype. I *still* think Brangelina make a weird couple, and I totally thought their spawn would turn out quite obscure. But just goes to support the argument that it is like impossible for celebs to have ugly kids. It JUST DOESN’T HAPPEN. Gawd, wtf?

She Almost Looks Cute (?) Here



Come on...for HER...she looks good. I like the pink polkas on her. Here she is in London, accepting a cat from a friend. Weird, ok. I really do love her though. She's just awesome.

Yo Linds, Casper Wants His White Back!



Apparently Lilo's Sunset Tan sessions are all used up, because homegirl looks like she hasn't seen the light of day in a year! Maybe she and galpal Samantha Ronson are trying to match skin tones...or maybe lesbians don't do the whole artificial tanning thing. Either way, a little color wouldn't do any harm. Her legs are only like 2 shades off from matching her jacket! And I thought I was lookin pasty these days.
