| | The team is heading to Napa this afternoon for the wine country wedding of Splendora sales guru, Amy Hudson. With a whole passel of people jetting in from Amy's home state of North Carolina, we are eagerly anticipating all of the southern hospitality and food. Bring on the fried chicken biscuits! To see how the Officemates "do" a wedding, make sure to check out our new gallery feature, Party Pix. |
| WHICH IS THE WAX FIGURE? The wax creations at Madame Tussauds, accurate as they are at mirroring the likenesses of pop-culture icons, are still utterly comatose in appearance. The lifeless gaze of each figure fails to capture the je ne sais quoi that celebrities possess, and you can only look at one for a limited amount of time before an eerie feeling starts to set in. Knowing this, we are totally creeped out by Teri Hatcher's wax doppelganger; place it right next to the resurrected television star, and it is virtually impossible to tell the difference between them. Whether Teri's accelerated weight loss, possible abuse of Botox, or rumored penchant for artificial enhancement are to blame for her freaky appearance is unknown as of yet. What is clear, however, is that someone must revive Teri, STAT. Continuing to frolic around town looking like an inanimate object makes her seem like the most "Desperate" of all her co-stars. |
| THE SEPARATING KIND Just when we thought that all of Tinsel Town had gone on engagement overdrive, overworked P.R. flacks were suddenly passing out the essential break-up press release faster than Tara Reid can down a shot of Goldschlager. Couples gone kaput include; Kenny n' Renufffde, Tori n' Charlie, Jamie Lynn n' A.J.- all donzo. In the midst of all of the pre-nup parsing we have noticed an alarming new trend. Below is a step-by-step guide to how a Hollywood courtship (and consequent breakup) should go down: 1) Have a major wedding complete with choppers and coverage by E!, VH1, People & Us. 2) Split up with B-list actor/singer/manager spouse in about a year's time. 3) Breathe sigh of relief. Keep 3 carat Asscher-cut bling. 4) Be seen at Koi making out with smarmy dude after publicist releases official separation statement (even though you've been dabbling for months.) In the past week, two ladies who followed this plan, Jamie Lynn Sigler neufffd Discala and Donna Martin, Tori Spelling, were consequently seen getting hickeys in public. Maybe their former flames should start the First Husbands Club. |
