Remember when seeing SJP used to fill you with something you might call joyful admiration? She had that rare combination of huggable cuteness with equal parts triple crown clotheshorse. She was like a Jennifer Aniston with style or a Mary Kate minus the drug habit. And then came the bewildering Gap campaign splashing her face across billboards, banners, buses, tv commercials, and print ads. Like we're supposed to believe that this fashion icon who made Manolo Blahnik (and his $500 shoes) a household name is suddenly content in a corduroy blazer and generic jeans. It's like a slap in the face to all of us suckers who worked up the courage to spend a whole month's rent on a single outfit. The good news is that Sarah has just signed a two year contract with HBO to develop and produce new projects. We're hoping for an alternative to Desperate Housewives.

Well, we just have to cover it. The poor dear is obviously starved for attention. So here's the breaking news: Brigitte Nielsen just got married for the sixth time. After towering over Sly and mixing it up with some other unremarkable gents, the great Dane has finally settled on a twenty-six year old man in a diaper. Guess that's the end of long lastin' Flava Flav. It looks like even with that big clock around his neck, he didn't know what time it was with the cheese danish. It's too bad because we really bought their romance on VH1. Sheesh, if you can't find true love on reality TV what's left--late night "chat" infomercials with Evangeline Lilly?
