Want her face?

SNL: Why are people so surprised by the return of Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton? Aside from the fact that Poehler recently had a baby, we’ll probably be seeing a lot more of Clinton on the show since she accepted the media-heavy position of Secretary of State.

Twilight: The film franchise has hit its first stumbling block: Catherine Hardwicke and Summit have parted ways. Hardwicke will not direct the sequel, and the reason allegedly goes deeper than a simple schedule conflict.

Kanye West: NOT on Twitter!

David Gregory: The worst kept secret of late is a secret no more. NBC officially announced Gregory as the new host of Meet the Press.

Obama: Said on the aforementioned show he won’t be smoking in the White House. So will that be the first promise he breaks?

Tribune Company: Bankruptcy is on the horizon. You know what follows? More lay offs. Blek.

Barbra Streisand: Forced to share face time with arch enemy President Bush as she was honored by the Kennedy Center. Thankfully, no blood was shed.

Facebook: Beware of the Koobface virus!

PEOPLE: Redemption! The New York Times public editor is criticizing the piece the paper ran last month bashing PEOPLE. Turns out the NYT got some facts wrong! Will a retraction follow? We sure hope so.

NYT: Not sure we should trust them anymore (see above) but they’ve just released their list of the 10 best books of 2008. We’ve read approximately none of them.

Roger Ebert: Has “had it” with years of top 10 lists. So what did he do instead? Made a top 20 list.

SIZZLED OUT: Angelina Jolie and Halle Berry

STILL SIZZLING: We’re turning the tables on you. What juicy riddle do you have? We’ll print the best one tomorrow!

Who knew they were friends?

The Dark Knight: Haven’t seen it yet? Well, you’re in luck. The box office smash will return to theaters in January to, um, smash the box office. Or you could just buy the DVD instead.

Jimmy Fallon: If you’re curious to see how he’ll do as the new host on Late Night, NBC is offering a taste every weeknight at 12:30 a.m. on its web site. There Fallon will star in video blogs meant to draw viewers in before he actually appears on the show itself in another 5 or so months.

NBC: Will a MAJOR shakeup at the top bring back some must see TV? One can only hope.

Full House: Supposedly John Stamos and others want to bring it back. Will it be a fuller house now or something?

Washington Post: Making the bold claim that this is one of the hottest television seasons in terms of eye candy. Discuss.

Survivor: Auctioning off a trip to the set–oops, we mean, deserted locale–to two “lucky” viewers.

Oprah: What if you followed very bit of advice given out on her show? Well, then you’d end up like this girl.

America Ferrera: Will host a special “conversation” with soon-to-be Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. The point of the event is to get rid of Clinton’s campaign debt. Does that mean no one’s getting paid for this?

SIZZLED OUT: Paris Hilton

STILL SIZZLING: Wanting to look like your favorite celeb–and even going under the knife to do so is becoming increasingly common. These two box office babes are among the most requested. Meow!
