YOU OUGHTA KNOW
Taking a page from the Christina Aguilera book of fashion this week is Alanis Morissette. We would rather see a naked Alanis a la the "Thank You" video instead of this fashion faux paus that can only be likened to a conspicuous ode to the mid-90's (we vaguely remember Shannen Doherty donning a similar item for a date with Dylan at the Peach Pit.) Not that we want to get all George Hamilton/Charlize leather face on you, but baby needs some spray tan action. Taking a photo of that exposed slip of skin is like shooting into a white vortex, the reflection is way more blinding than the bling on her ring finger from fresh fiancee Ryan Reynolds. Speaking the coffee house queens' loves, did you know that the vitriol Alanis spewed on her breakthrough album was written with ex-boyfriend and favorite Full House uncle Dave Coulier in mind? Cut-it-out (said with hand motions and in a Bullwinkle voice)? No, we are deadly serious, these 2 Canucks were totally in love. And like the title of her latest release, this ensemble can only be described as "So-Called Chaos."

It's no secret that the 58 year-old former prez is a hot ticket. But move over rover, look at how hot Chelsea looks. Her Versace makeover a few years back pales in comparison to her new do' complete with blonde highlights, thermal reconditioning, and loads of lipgloss. Ultra F-I-N-E, fine.
