He's finally not the only gay in the village
Matt Lucas got married last week in London and he threw a cool pantomime themed reception... how I wish I were friends with Lucas, so I could have dressed up as little Snow White and chatted it up with David Tennant, who apparently dressed up as Buttons (from Cinderella) or at least asked Courtney how she makes a mean pot roast. And since when was Courtney friends with Matt Lucas?
Gwen Stefani says what!?!
TMZ.com reports that Stefani was acting like a complete diva at the taping of her performance for MTV's New Year's Eve show. That is hard to believe cos she's always been a sweetheart! They say Gwen was totally ignoring her screaming fans and making a "cut it out" motions (maybe she was channeling Dave Coulier's humor), and even stopped a take of "Wind it Up" because fans were noisy. Either this TMZ source really hates Stefani that he/she would exaggerate the facts...or maybe Gwen should really throw in the towel and be a full time mommy. After all, if there is no No Doubt reunion after Sweet Escape, I'm not really interested in your career Miss Gwen!) But what does she have to lose, she'll be stylish for years to come, so that automatically guarantees her fame... stop worrying that people will forget about you if you don't put out another record Gwen. We all still love Gavin and he hasn't really done much...except continue looking handsome as ever.
quincy toys = BAD
I don't like to rant about my hates...but Quincy toys has rubbed me the bad way. I ordered some Christmas items for the kiddies, and after two weeks, I have still not received a notification of extended delay. This is very irresponsible not to notify your customers that your shipment will be delay for 15+ days, especially when Christmas is so close and people are bound to be traveling early. I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST ordering from QUINCY TOYS. Unless you like to make cute innocent little children cry their eyes out, don't order from Quincy!
Lil Chris...a lil creepy
So this kid is like 16 (but looks 12), and I guess he went through Gene Simmon's Rock School bootcamp reality show in the UK. And now he has a solo album. His singing doesn't seem to match his image...it's like imagining Tom Delounge sing like Micheal Jackson, singing country. Apparently he did a cover of Sexyback on the Jo Whiley Live Lounge, which I'd like to hear. (Side tangent, Keane's cover of U2's "With or without you" and Lily Allen's cover of the Kaiser Chiefs' "Oh My God", David Gray's cover of the Killers "Smile like you mean it" And Razorlight's cover of "Hey Ya" on Jo Whiley is fu-amazing).
But kudos to Chris for getting permission from his parents to get plugs. I wish I had those kind of parents in highschool. And apparently he's very funny in a immature teenager way...look at his holiday drawings

Lily Allen cover of Kook's "Naive"
You need to listen to Lily Allen's acoustic cover of "Naive" here. Brilliant! I gotta admit, despite her let down of a show in NYC, the girl can siiiing! And if you live in Seattle, show her some love by seeing her at her secret show tonight!
What is up with ER!
I used to love watching ER...but I usually don't watch it anymore because it's on at 10pm, and that's my bedtime. Anyways, I taped the show last week because it looked interesting. John Stamos joining the cast of ER is like having Andy Dick joining the cast of 7th Heaven. Why does Stamos look too thin and like his nose has gotten bigger? He totally looks like his Stavros character (the sleezy Greek cousin) from Full House. Creepy.
But I love that Busy Phillips is on the show now. It's like a Freaks and Geeks reunion with Linda Cardellini. Now if you throw in Dave Foley to play a visiting doctor that ruins Abby/Kovac's relationship you could have a NewsRadio reunion. And while you're at it, throw in an Olsen or two as a drug addict looking for a quick fix, and you've got a Full House reunion. Oh and then there's Kip Pardue. Is ER just about adding cute faces into the mix and making all the characters swap partners. It's like Dawson's Creek, hospital style. Speaking of Dawson's Creek...if Michelle Williams joins the cast there could be a Freaks and Geeks, Dawson's Creek, Imaginary Heros, and Brokeback Mountain reunion overlap. Sweet! She can hook up with Pratt.

Los Abandoned and Gnome
Two things you need to check out. First is this free short film download from itunes. Go to the movie section of the itunes store. In "catergories" select "short films." Then select "Glamour Reel Moments," and download for free the "Gnome" short. It's got Lauren Graham from the Gilmore Girls in it. It was a very cool short. Might I also add it was made by a woman. Woohoo.
Secondly, thanks to Perezers, Los Abandoned is a new favorite band. The band is fronted by the lovely Lady P, who is finally a killer, kick ass, rock, female lead singer breath of fresh air since old skool 1992 Gwen Stefani. And the band's got latin roots. Check it out, and if you ever get a pin of theirs at a show, you better give it to me.

Gideon Yago circa 2001
As promised here's a vintage picture of Gideon Yago smoking a cigarette outside Irving Plaza. It was at the No Doubt benefit show for 9/11. He's standing next to Blurry McBlur.
Finland's sexiest man breaks up via text message
Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen is apparently Finland's sexiest man, (maybe there are that many good looking men in Finland), but then again Vanhanen has been dubbed as Finland's sexiest man by French President Jacques Chirac. Since when are we trusting Chriac's "who's hot or not" judgement?
Don't know what CNN was thinking when they selected the picture of Vanhanen (below) for this article, but his crooked glasses make him seem even more "white and nerdy" (thanks Weird Al).
Anyways, last week Vanhanen broke up with his girlfriend, whom he met on the internet, via text message. He texted "that's it!" I guess he took lead from Britney Spears.

All I want for christmas is a... gas mask
Was browsing flickr for images for a project and came across this gas mask image. Reminded me of the Sigur Ros music video directed by Floria Sigismondi, as well as the film Dead Man's Shoes, and a short film called Chicken Bomb on a RES DVD. Who ever gets me a gas mask (the rubber kind that fits over the whole head...like in this picture) for christmas...will get to come with me to the MTV VMAs (that is in a couple years when I make that killer video).
