'Black People'

Known to leer at the ladies from time to time (read: all the time), Terrence Howard is of course hanging around at New York's Fashion Week. A reporter from the New York Daily News witnessed him exhibiting some odd behavior at the Fashion Rocks event — more leering, pretending to bite a male friend's nipple, etc. — and then had an even odder conversation with him.

We're Partial to 'The Pink Flamingo'

The New York Daily News reports today that Yankee cheater Alex Rodriguez sometimes wears a fake mustache to avoid being recognized while visiting his mistresses. Fortunately, the paper gives no indication as to what type of mustache, thereby allowing us to do our favorite thing in the whole Internet: goof off in MS Paint.

Click through for Mollygood's gallery of A-Rod disguises, none of which really disguise A-Rod.

What a Difference Eight Years Makes

Britney Spears has been banned from attending the 2008 Grammys, an inside source told the Daily News. According to the informant, the fallen pop star will not even be allowed to enter the building.

Just eight short years ago, Spears gave the Grammys performance seen above. Watching it is actually kind of sad.

The Daily News reports today that Ethan Hawke is dating his childrens' former nanny – a mysterious suitor named Ryan (we're assuming female) – and has been for two years.

The Newsers were shocked. (They call Hawke "crafty.") But apparently there was a reason they didn't know about this burgeoning romance: The couple was said to be "keeping a lid on this," selfishly spending hours and hours by themselves, not once taking Ben Widdicombe's feelings into account.

Notes from the Frontline

bloggerswithbloggers

Look! It's me, Cord, with Trent from Pink Is the New Blog. (Search Mollygood on Wikipedia and it takes you to his entry. Weird, but I'm too indifferent to change it.) Where did this meeting of the typists occur? At In Touch magazine's fifth anniversary party. There was much to behold, and we beheld all of it. Boy did I dance badly, but to what I can't remember on account of being slightly tipsy. Drinking is an absolute necessity when swimming with the heeled and hatted sharks that attend these things. After the jump, the stories!

Also, Very, Very, Very, Very, Very, Very Insecure

terilead

A disagreeable – and presumably paintedTeri Hatcher, famous for her oft-bad acting on Lois & Clark, reportedly became bellicose with NY Daily News reporters last evening after the Badgley Mischka fashion show. Gossip!

Hatcher refused press interviews and demanded the W lounge be closed down for herself. We were in the W and graciously got up when Hatcher demanded, "I need these seats." When the Desperate one noticed us listening to her list of demands (she barked orders at her assistants about her hair, her clothing, and the time she needed to effectively make herself up all over again), her peeps at Badgley M had us removed. We were happy to go.

As you should have been, Daily News. As you should have been.

After the jump, more of this audacious battle-ax.

Besides being an awful, condescending idea, He's Just Not That Into You the movie is apparently also a meat market. This weekend, a tipster to the Daily News spotted two of the film's stars making out in Vegas.

Drew Barrymore lip-locked with "Live Free or Die Hard" actor Justin Long Sunday night at Vegas' Jet Nightclub at the Mirage, with best buddy Cameron Diaz in tow. The trio sat in VIP, where Drew and Justin "got cozy and made out in a corner table…"

I suppose a likely explanation for this romance is that a disastrous joke like He's Just Not That Into You can forge an eternal bond within its victims. It's the same reason Vietnam vets can buddy up so quickly.

After the jump, pictures from Barrymore's new Gucci campaign.

But You Knew That

condi_conan

Today, the New York Daily News presented at length an upcoming book called The Confidante: Condoleezza Rice and the Creation of the Bush Legacy. And while its tactful title initially leads one to believe the work could be pertinent – maybe even smart – the words from its pages paint a different, Dice Clay-ian picture. Take, for example, this yarn about a Stanford professor demonstrating for some friends how taut Condi's ass is:

Wanting to show his partner how firm Rice's behind was, Blacker postulated that if he aimed a quarter at her butt, it would bounce right off like a rocket.

"He was right," says Kessler. "[Rice] didn't realize what he had done until everyone was laughing hysterically. She was flattered and proud."

Hear that? She wanted it. Awesome, Professor Date Rape! And how about this:

She Scores!

seeingeye

I know very little about women and even less about sports, but I'm a master at knowing fine innuendo when I see it, so I found a blind item from today's Daily News quite special:

Which lady sports journalist has become locker-room gossip because of her hands-on approach to covering ball sports?

Did he say "hands-on approach" and "ball sports"? Cunning!

Who can it be now?

He's Obviously Just Some Geek Off the Street

This from the New York Daily News:

It's hard to top Lindsay, Paris and Britney in this week's scandal sweepstakes, but Zsa Zsa Gabor 's husband may have done it yesterday by claiming that a trio of women robbed him, stripped him and handcuffed him to his Rolls-Royce.

Prince Frederic von Anhalt, eighth spouse of the 90-year-old actress, called L.A. cops around 10 a.m. to say he'd been driving on Bellagio Road behind the Los Angeles Country Club when he was flagged down by three women in a white Chrysler convertible with Florida plates.

"They said they'd seen him on TV and asked to get a picture with him," LAPD spokesman Kevin Maiberger tells us.

A moment later, von Anhalt told police, one of the women put a gun to his neck. "He told me they took his gold chain, watch and gold rings from his family," Gabor's rep John Blanchette told us.

This story—though fantastic if true—sounds suspiciously similar to the plight of "the Warren to the G" in the canonical 1994 work "Regulate". If you'll remember: I'm gettin' jacked, I'm breakin' myself/ I cant believe they takin' Warren's wealth/ They took my rings, they took my Rolex/ I looked at the brotha', said "Damn, whats next?" Any man handy with the steel knows that next you regulate, which Nate Dogg explains in great detail. The Prince, however, called the cops. Naked. In his Rolls-Royce.

Nobody's G'ed up anymore.

CEOs Worldwide Tell Secretaries, 'See?'

volta

From today's New York Daily News:

It's no accident that John Travolta sports bosoms the size of zeppelins in "Hairspray." "I love big boobs on a woman," he told us at the movie's premiere, "so I wanted [my character] Edna [Turnblad] to have them. My boobs and butt got a lot of attention on the set. The whole crew kept coming over and groping me. The scary thing is, I liked it."

Now about those rumors

PS Let's be done with jeans paired with jackets and ties, OK? That's what one does for frat pictures. It's literally half-assing it. Tony Manero would be fucking disgusted.

She May Not Be as Wonderful as You Think

facecopy

In case you didn't know, ex-con and giggler Paris Hilton may have been lying when she told Larry King that she had never done drugs. Thankfully, the New York Daily News breaks the case wide open today, offering up unnamed sources and speculation, despite there being plenty of photographic evidence of the behavior they describe:

Multiple sources have confirmed her regular marijuana habit. She has even smoked it, several times, in the presence of a Daily News reporter.

Her pot smoking was a regular headache for those responsible for shepherding her though her schedule of celebrity appearances.

"She was always out of it during the day," says one.

Though it's difficult to take Paris' side on an issue, it needs to be said that Paris Hilton being "out of it" is not indicative of drug use. It's more a sign of a life lived without the stress required to develop common sense.

And an Embarrassment in the Public Eye

ti

Does anyone else find it eternally frustrating that large gatherings of black entertainers are so often marred by violence? Here's information from the New York Daily News on the latest black on black crime:

According to a witness, a fight broke out between rapper T.I. and Ludacris' manager, Chaka Zulu, around 2 p.m.

"First it was two guys, then it was six guys, then it was 10 guys," said the source, describing how the fight escalated.

"Plates were being smashed, the hotel lost a palm tree. The place got trashed," said the witness.

"T.I. was like a dog in a meathouse. Chaka's shirt got all torn up. As people spilled outside, [onlookers] were asking, 'Who got shot?'"

Likening blacks to animals is not only vestigial, it's also deplorable; unless, of course, one is given reason to.

The New York Daily News reports that John Mayer, fresh out of a relationship with Jessica Simpson, is now setting his sights on Penelope Cruz (annoyingly called "Pen" below).

Pen and her new bff, Shakira, attended an after-party at Hollywood hot spot Parc following John's June 10 concert, according to our witness.
But Shaki was nowhere to be found when John was spotted entering Penelope's digits into his phone.

MTV continues to tramp merrily down the path more traveled on their way to hell, this time cajoling comic godfather Stan Lee into creating an animated series starring ex-con Paris Hilton. The New York Daily News is on it:

A…source directly involved with the project likened it to the 'Stripperella' cartoon developed by Lee in 2003 for Pamela Anderson.

The insider said the deal had been inked and would include a credit for former Hilton boyfriend Paris Latsis, who was also on board.

'He's not doing much, but she wanted him involved,' says the snitch.

Industry rule number 4,080: Any project said to be comparable to Stripperella isn't something the zeitgeist is missing. Get back to the drawing board and use Stan Lee—who apparently is now just smoke signaling it in—for something worthwhile. Because should this show actually be produced, it won't only be mind-numbing, it will also be derivative. MTV already had a show highlighting the antics of Paris Hilton. It was called Daria, and Paris was portrayed by Quinn Morgendorffer.

Forcing People to Come to Terms With Their Sexuality Rather Than Letting Them Gradually Accept Their Desires is Gay

The New York Daily News ran a particularly obvious blind item today, which read:

Which still-closeted former boy-bander was making sure nobody got pictures of him with his handsome Spanish escort at a recent European charity event?

Tough one, guys, but I think I might have an idea.

I've hinted at my guess under the jump. It's subtle, so be alert.

Whatever Happened to Baby Lindsay?

lohan86

Today, the New York Daily News offers a photographic retrospective of Lindsay Lohan's life titled "Timeline of a train wreck." Above is the first photo in the gallery. It's Dina Lohan and daughter circa 1986. As she stares off into oblivion, baby Lindsay hasn't the slightest idea that one day, that ambitious bundle of hairspray, lip gloss and dime store rouge to her left will make things so very, very difficult.
