| Darlings, |
| Let the Jackson-Justin buzz die down and let's focus on more vital issues like who is going to be our next President. Catch election fever by visiting Electablog the most brilliant, witty, political blog ever written (and we're not just raving about it because it's written by Gina Pell's husband). |

NORMAL PREGNANT PEOPLE vs. MARY LOUISE
|
Not to obsess about the Golden Globes (more were bared than won that fateful night) but there was one conspicuous lack of globular protrusion that has kept us wondering:What kind of lipo-starvation-girdle-bootcamp did Mary Louise Parker have to endure to look thinner than she ever has only weeks after giving birth? Even Catherine Zeta-Jones who notoriously bounces back after birth looks beautifully bigger post-natal. Hopefully Mary's immaculate projection doesn't start a trend of unnaturally thin new mommies because we plan to be fat and happy for at least two and a half weeks after delivery!

DESIGNER ICE ICE BABY
|
No doubt coming soon to a J.Lo video near you, Gucci Ice. And we're not talking about Gucci jewelry with a side of bling, we're actually referring to the useless yet stellar advent of the Gucci Ice Tray. Perfect for famous G's like our favorite ice queen Gwyneth or cool couple Gavin and Gwen. Can't wait to see these babies floating in our Gin & Tonic.
