Sexy Stars Soak up the Night with TV Guide | Today's News: Our Take | 5/2/2008
Stepping in to the TV Guide Sexiest Stars Party at Katsuya Thursday night, the place was packed as throngs of people swished through the crowded front room and snaked around past the sushi bar, the photo booth and into the back room, S Bar. Servers moved through the crowd with trays of tall, exotic cocktails, and the bar was lined with glossy guests in hip threads. Weaving through the scene were recognizable celebs squeezing by. Suddenly, there was E! host Michael Yo high-fiving a TV Guide pal (his rumored new main squeeze, Karina Smirnoff, was not in tow). Next, there Kenneth the Page — aka Jack McBrayer — who seemed just as earnest in real-life as he does in his 30 Rock garb. Upon some intros, he shook hands, and said, "Thanks for having me!" It was tempting to inquire about his video costar, Mariah Carey, and her new husband, but there was sushi waiting (priorities, priorities).Stepping in to the dining area with a pomegranate Mojito in hand, the central sushi-making... read more be the first to leave a comment

Idol's David H.: Song Choice Was Worse Than Stripper Past | Great American Idol Blog | 3/14/2008
Idol's latest castoff David Hernandez believes it was his song choice and not his past as a stripper in a gay club that cost him his spot in the top 12. Hernandez said his elimination was "based on song selection" and added, "I think America's smart enough to know by now that people's personal lives should not influence their musical career." Even though the judges didn't like his performance of "I Saw Her Standing There," which most likely had a large hand in David H. getting the boot, he defended his performance, saying, "I was very happy with my stage presence."When asked about the media attention he received during his stripper scandal, Hernandez said his fellow contestants encouraged him to stay away from TV and the Internet. He added, "The media can be vicious sometimes." However, the singer says that adversity is his best friend and, "If this is the worst thing that comes out of my career, then I'm pretty set to go."Do you think David H.'s song choice was the reason he got... read more be the first to leave a comment
Narrowing It Down to 11 | TV Show Recaps | 3/13/2008
No big surprises tonight in terms of the bottom three. Syesha and David H. both gave pretty lackluster performances, and Kristy was downright awful.At least the Horton Hears a Who promo to kick off the night was a lot cuter than the Jumper one last month, and Jim Carrey was a much better sport about it all (including making fun of the blatant cross-promotion) than Hayden Christensen. The other "celebrity" in the audience tonight was Sanjaya Malakar, who was there with his sister, though they never identified him and the camera only lingered on him for a moment. Oh, and Danny Noriega, I suppose returning the favor of Ramiele's song dedication to him last night, was sitting with her family and wearing a T-shirt with her face on it. It's all so... teenage-BFFs, isn't it?The medley of "All My Loving," "I Feel Fine," "Can't Buy Me Love" and "Help," had some tough spots; Amanda, for one, continues to stick out like a sore thumb during the group songs. Oh, and her hair was especially odd... read more be the first to leave a comment
