Can you believe this was 14 years ago?!

Grammys: Great show. Full recap here.

Chris Brown: WTF is going on?! Please tell us Rihanna is not the woman he got in a fight with! Will this kill his previously-stellar rep? Or is he innocent until proven guilty?

Usher: Canceled his pre-Grammy performance after someone in his family was injured. PEOPLE claims it was his wife, Tameka Foster, and from a plastic surgery operation.

Blink-182: In addition to announcing their reunion at the Grammys, the group also updated their official site with the news. “Friendships reformed,” new album, world tour. So exciting!

Jennifer Aniston: Making a movie about artificial insemination. Foreshadowing?

Jennifer Aniston, Pt. 2: Says she wouldn’t be opposed to a Friends reunion special. Hurrah!

DWTS: Announced contestants include: Denise Richards, Steve-O, Lil’ Kim, Jewel (and her husband!) and Nancy O’Dell. Full list here. No one interests us. Sad.

Obama: Inspiring election campaigns in Israel…even though they didn’t want him to be president. Gotta love that bandwagon!

BAFTAS: Slumdog Millionaire won SEVEN awards! Jeez. Spread the wealth, guys!

Will Ferrell: People may be walking out of his Broadway show but we have a feeling Will Ferrell gets the last laugh. Anyone who can show former President Bush’s penis in a show is obviously quite funny.

McDonalds: Sponsoring Fashion Week and giving away free coffee. Do fashionistas drink coffee? Or is it that they take anything that’s free?

The Daily Beast: Suggests Jessica Simpson’s weight issues could lead to a financial gain. ‘Cause, you know, that’s what’s most important.

SIZZLED OUT: Ricki Lake

STILL SIZZLING: If it’s not one thing, it’s always another for this sports star. His recent headlines about his lovelife are being overshadowed by a new report: testing positive for steroids!

The family that works together, stays together?

EW: Rumors about it going on-line only are false, says the mag. That makes us happy, even if we knock them every now and again.

The Dark Knight: If the DVD is flying off the shelves, why would anyone go to see it again in theaters?

Full House: Last week we heard about a remake and now it’s not happening. Consider us bummed.

Gossip Girl: And don’t be fooled. This spin-off isn’t happening, either!

Twilight: New director will likely be Chris Weitz. His previous credits include American Pie. Just sceams family-friendly, doesn’t it? On the flipside, he was once nominated for an Oscar. Screams talent? You decide.

Harry Potter: If you love the books/films so much, you might want to book a trip to Chicago. The Museum of Science and Industry there will have a HP exhibit through September.

Will Ferrell: And if you can’t make it to New York, too, to see his show “You’re Welcome, America. A Final Night with George W. Bush,” stay tuned to HBO which will do a live telecast in the somewhat near future.

Maggie Gyllenhaal: Mixing business with pleasure, she and babydaddy Peter Sarsgaard (what’s with the double As?) will star together in an off-Broadway show. Let’s hope this doesn’t mean doom for the couple, for the kid’s sake at least.

YouTube: 40 inspirational speeches, all cut from movies, in 2 minutes. Awesome.

Gawker: Unveiled a redesign late yesterday. It’s okay. We’re not big fans of change, though.

Cosmetic Surgery: Do you feel like women’s mags are endorsing it? We’ve never really thought about it, so guess that’s a no for us.

McDonald’s: Trying to start an ad war with Starbucks and we kind of like it.

KB Toys: Going out of business. So that means Toys R Us is all that’s left, right? Good thing that was our favorite!

SIZZLED OUT: Will Smith

STILL SIZZLING: We love this whimsical writer but people seem to be bagging on him lately. (Hint: You can use the last name to make play on the word shadenfreude!)
