No longer a (wannabe) journalist
Obama: His presidency may pose the biggest challenge to political cartooning. The satirists are fretting about how to depict him without being too offensive. But isn’t offensiveness part of the point?
Lydia Hearst: The publishing heiress has resigned from her New York Post column on grounds that her editor published something with her name that she, in fact, did not write. Who knew the socialite had such morals?
90210: Back with new episodes tonight…and another interracial couple? So it seems.
Jonas Bros.: Coming to a theater near you in Walter the Farting Dog. We just threw up a little.
The Hills: We rarely write about this show because we think it kills brain cells, but we must applaud David Letterman for cleverly attacking L.C. and co. on his show last night.
Hairspray: A sequel is in the works but John Travolta says he’s unlikely to reprise his cross-dressing role. We’re not thrilled with the idea of a sequel but we feel better about it knowing Travolta won’t be a part of it.
Janet Jackson: Her tour is really not going well. After canceling a string of dates due to migraines, her opening act LL Cool J (though we like to spell it out: Ladies Love Cool James) has dropped out. Refund, please.
Zac Efron: Does success in HSM mean success in all other things? That’s what the execs of the Footloose remake are hoping. The producion dates have been moved up following Zac’s mega-box office receipts with HSM 3.
Stumble It!
