A little less time, a little more music, please.

A little less time, a little more music, please.

Madonna: Reports are swirling this morning that Madonna and Guy will announce the divorce that has been rumored for so long.  Her rep declined comment–perhaps that means an official statement this afternoon?  Check back later today for part 2!

Joe Manganiello: The actor–who plays Owen on One Tree Hill–has a legit Facebook profile.  No shit.

James Van der Beek: The return of Dawson?  Sort of.  One Tree Hill creator, Mark Schwahn, has confirmed that the teen soap veteran will guest-star on a November ep, as a filmmaker.  Kind of like Dawson, no?

Tim McGraw: He’s “embarrassed” that his record label put out another greatest hits album instead of new music.  After all, he’s had THREE compilations out in the last 2 years.  Time for new music is right!

Iron Man 2: Don Cheadle will be taking over Terrence Howard’s role.  We don’t really know what that means considering we never saw Iron Man in the first place.

Matthew Perry: Showtime is making a show starring the former friend but we’re more excited to see him in 17 Again with Zac Efron!

Gossip Girl: Yalies are quite upset with their portrayal in Monday’s episode.  Pretentious much?

TV Guide: The struggling mag has been sold to a private equity company.  No word yet on what that means exactly for the magazine but hopefully it’ll stay around long enough for us to work there!

Fall Out Boy: New album pushed back to DECEMBER?! Blame the election.

SIZZLED OUT: Maureen McCormick (Marcia Brady)

STILL SIZZLING: If rumors of a funeral are true, New York City may get a little less crowded on this TV show.

We actually love the leggings AND the hair.  Good goin', Linds.

We actually love the leggings AND the hair.

DJ AM: Will make his first post-crash DJ appearance tomorrow with  Jay-Z.  Good for him!

90210: Ratings from DVRs significantly boosted the show’s viewership.  The downside?  It means no one cares to watch the show the first time around.  Can’t say we blame them.

Justin Timberlake: JT is in a election-state-of-mind.  He attended an Obama rally and performed…wait for it…VOTE IN A BOX!

Blake Lively: Also apparently an Obama fan, as is boyfriend Penn Badgley.  The two star in ad set to run on the CW, MTV and Comedy Central.  Do celebs really influence how a person votes??

Lindsay Lohan: Launched her leggings line.  Yes, leggings.  And named after none other than Marilyn Monroe.

Madonna: Is it cool to wear part-shoe, part-gun on your feet?  The Madge apparently thinks so.

We know you look best when your brooding but we can't take much more!

Hot and smart? What a combination!

AniMayer: Star and The National Enquirer are reporting that these two are back on.  We’ll wait for more reliable sources before we comment.

Prison Break: Now we’ve watched the show since it began four years but if it gets any more complex, our heads are going to explode!

Gossip Girl: If you didn’t see last night’s ep, you missed some girl-on-girl fighting and Penn Badgley in nothing but his boxers.  But it’s not too late to start watching: the CW has ordered two additional episodes for this season, making 24 in all.

Teen TV: Think the lead characters always go on to big careers?  Think again.

Sophia Bush: In a new interview with CosmoGirl! (RIP), she says she only wants simple hang outs with friends “rather than dance on tables and have nine cocktails.”  Hm, wonder who she’s referring to…

Living Lohan: Ali revealed to Seventeen there might be a second season.  Brace yourselves.

Shannen Doherty: Worked out a deal to return to 90210 for two more episodes.  Not sure how we feel about this considering we were never Brenda fans in the first place.

SIZZLED OUT: John Lennon

STILL SIZZLING: Which former child star says in her new memoir that she dated Michael Jackson, Steve Martin AND her on-screen sibling?  That is one random bunch!

She's 40!

She's 40!

Beverly Hills Chihuahua: This movie topped the box office two weeks in a row!  We have to wonder what this says about America’s taste in movies…

DWTS: Forget all the hoopla surrounding Cheryl Burke’s fit/not fit body.  We still can’t believe Carrie Ann Inaba is 40!  How long ’til she becomes a MILF?

Johnny Depp: Speaking of still being hot for your age, Johnny Depp was just voted sexiest man by Cosmopolitan UK.  Our favorite Johnny look: Crybaby!

Miley Cyrus: The barely 16-year-old claims she’s fallen in love more than 20 times.   So how long until she’s pulling a Britney?

Zac Efron: Not taking over Daniel Radcliffe’s full-frontal role on Broadway.  One word: damn.

Barack Obama: Ballots mailed to Albany residents presented ‘Barack Osama’ as one of the candidates.  Correct versions were later sent out but is the damage already done?

From the hospital, Travis Barker posted this pic on his blog.

From the hospital, Travis Barker posted this pic on his blog.

90210: No new episode tomorrow night.  Somehow, we’ll live.

Travis Barker: Says he’s recovering nicely in a new post on his MySpace blog (complete with pictures!).  But he wants to make one thing clear: don’t believe “rumors” spread by ex-wife Shanna Moakler. Is there even more trouble brewing on the homefront?  It seems this family has all it can handle for a while…

Star Jones: Still trying to make her own star shine a little brighter.  This apparently includes badmouthing her former View co-stars and trying her hand once again at her own TV show.

Jennifer Lopez: Jenny from the block and hubby Marc Anthony traveled to Vegas–and in the “spur of the moment,” decided to renew their vows!  Maybe it’s just us but we thought off-the-cuff weddings in Vegas only happened the first time around.

Betty White: Called Sarah Palin a “crazy bitch.” We always loved that golden girl.

SIZZLED OUT: Angelina Jolie

STILL SIZZLING: This beloved music icon didn’t practice what he preached, and instead embraced cruelty and perversity–all this according to a new biography.  Too bad he couldn’t just give peace a chance.

The movie that brought us Russell Brand.  We're still not sure if that's a good thing.

The movie that brought us Russell Brand. We're still not sure if that's a good thing.

NBC: So it turns out millions and millions of people tuning into your station doesn’t guarantee moolah.  The network actually lost money on their Olympics coverage.  Can’t say we feel bad.

Jennie Garth: The perennial fave 90210 actress admits to questioning the super-skinny bodies of her new younger co-stars.  She says if she were in charge, those girls might get a talking to.  Um, Jennie, didn’t anyone ever tell you not to speak out against your boss?  See Shannen Doherty, circa 1994.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall: We’ll be using this 3-disc special edition to tide us over until the next Judd Apatow pic hits the screens.

Rock of Love Charm School with Sharon Osbourne: Premieres tonight, but how many people actually find Sharon Osbourne charming?

SIZZLED OUT: Foo Fighters

STILL SIZZLING: Which celebrity did Forbes name as the most-bankable magazine cover?

The original cast of 90210!

The original cast of 90210!

Entourage: Watched it for the first time this week.  Loved it.  Now how the hell do we catch up?!

90210: CBS, which owns the rights to the original (and the only as far as we’re concerned) 90210, has partnered with YouTube to show full episodes on-line.  Though only the first 5 of season one are available right now, it’s still better than the crappy imitation on the CW.

Danielle Fishel: The Dish host says every time she leaves her house, fans call her Topanga.  Know what that means?  Time for a Boy Meets World reunion!

HSM: PEOPLE has put out a special issue in anticipation of HSM 3.  Buy! Buy! Buy!

Rachel Bilson: Still with Hayden Christensen.  Can’t say we blame her but I guess that means no happy ending for Summer and Seth after all.

Still hanging tough!

Still hanging tough!

NKOTB: Now that New Kids on the Block have staged a successful (?) reunion, who’s next?  NSYNC?  BSB?  OTown?  2ge+ther?  98 Degrees?  BBMak?  Evan and Jaron?  LFO?  The list goes on and on…

Obama Mania: Good ol’ community organizer Barack is planning 30-minute campaign ads on some of the major networks.  Wait, that’s what we thought debates were for…?!

Barbara Walters: Why is everyone giving Babs flack for interviewing Peter Cook?  She’s a journalist!  She’s supposed to interview the “bad guys”!

Ryan Reynolds: Plan A to stay relevant: Marry someone more famous than you. Plan B: Run in a marathon benefiting Parkinson’s Disease research. Guess we can’t make fun of you any more.

Ashley Tisdale: The Tis claims she’s never been attracted to friend and co-star Zac Efron.  Liar!

SIZZLED OUT: Rosie O’Donnell

STILL SIZZLING: Which rock band is PO’ed at a certain presidential candidate for using one of their songs at campaign events?  Says the band: “To have it appropriated without our knowledge and used in a manner that perverts the original sentiment of the lyric just tarnishes the song.”  Guess that means they’re voting for “that one”!

Brit Brit is all grown up! Sort of.

Brit Brit is all grown up! Sort of.

Britney Spears: The pop tart is looking back on the last few years and saying “What was I thinking?”  We have a sneaking suspicion she’ll be saying that two years from now, too.

Diddy: Admits he has imaginary friends. Can’t say we’re surprised.  How else did his ego get so big?

Katie Holmes: It’s really not a big deal that Katie does a big sing-and-dance number on Eli Stone.  After all, she did several performances on Dawson’s Creek.  But we guess only a true fan would know that.  All two of us.

Chinese Democracy: The long-awaited album from Axl and co. will supposedly come out this year.  Who even cares anymore?  Welcome to the Jungle is so 1987.

CosmoGirl!: A part of your adolescence and ours is the latest victim of the economy.  Here’s what we want to know: where will we get our monthly Eye Candy from?  And what about Project 2024?  And CG Girl!  Seventeen, you better watch your back.

Long-lost twins?

Sarah Palin: Can you tell the difference between Tina Fey-as-Sarah Palin and Sarah Palin-as-Sarah Palin? Yeah, neither can we.

John McCain:
Most grandparents are the same age as John McCain. Can you see them as president? Didn’t think so.

Janet Jackson: The most (in)famous female in the Jackson clan will resume touring after a mysterious illness.  Bad gas?  Old age?  Fatigue?  No official word so until then, let the lies and rumors continue!

DWTS: How long til 82-year-old Cloris Leachman breaks a hip? And didn’t Toni Braxton cancel concerts a short while ago for a heart problem?

90210: Memo to Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah! Bring back Kelly–with Dylan!

Anorexic Hollywood: So how many of Hollywood’s closet anorexics used Yom Kippur fasting as an excuse to not eat?


SIZZLED OUT:
Nikki Blonsky

STILL SIZZLING: Which TV personality many of you love to hate is thrilled about Britney’s comeback?  She’s been waiting for it for months!
