Vernon Chatman (Wonder Showzen): Yeah, I’ve worked on a lot of shitty shows. My first show I worked on was The Keenen Ivory Wayans Show. It was the first job I ever had. I learned, even if you’re on a shitty show, don’t try to bend yourself to them. Because I ended up writing a bunch of good stuff that I used later that was insane. Keenen did an article a couple of years ago, and they asked him, ‘What’s the worst pitch you ever got?’ And it was, ‘Some writer pitched that the show start with a helicoptor holding a yak, and the yak lands and a team pulls the yak into the stage and they slice open the yak and I -Keenen Ivory Wayans- drop onto the stage and start the show.’ That guy made White Chicks, and that’s the worst pitch he ever got? I pitched that, I swear to God, it didn’t occur to me that that was totally insane.
TONIGHT: Letterman has Amy Sedaris and Will Arnett. Conan has Scarlett Johansson, Kevin Nealon, and Locksley.
Do you see it? It’s right there. Look again. Look harder. Keep looking. You’ll see it… Do you see it, now? Yep. That’s right… She’s lost it. Just look at the pose. It’s horrendous. Inexcusable. WRONG. The old/young Paris never would have left the mansion with that pose in her bag of tricks. That particular pose, this particular photograph, from Wilmer Valderrama’s Calavena Clothing Unveiling at “Pure” Nightclub, is a sign. A crack in the armor. Friends, the winds of change are blowing, ever so softly. The time of Paris Hilton is almost over. The end is near. see.
Rehabulous: Lindsay Lohan is most definitely not concentrating.
Nic Cage: “I was eating jellybeans out of a martini glass and listening to Karen Carpenter and on the Internet watching chimps do karate.”
Rocky “Benihana” Aoki’s one-time most favorite daughter Devon Aoki was on Conan last night promoting her new movie War and was nice enough to flash her panties, oh, we’d say about five or six times. When is that new YouTube HD supposed to go live, again?
FilmJerk reviews Rodger Grossman’s decade-in-the-making Germs biopic What We Do Is Secret: “Grossman’s feature debut… is one of the rare passion projects that projects a strong and united idea, unencumbered with the typical schizophrenic storytelling that accompanies these types of long-imagined undertakings.”
“Maybe you’d even feel luckier than usual that you were Owen Wilson (in the same way that some larger group of guys might feel lucky that they were 25-45, attractive, and successful), especially if there were any possibility that there were other days when you might feel that there were drawbacks to being Owen Wilson.”
Pylon is reissuing a remastered version of their long out-of-print 1st album Gyrate, with the “Cool” single, the EP “10 Inch 45 rpm” and an unreleased track titled “Functionality.” Gyrate Plus drops October 16th!
Remind us not to go down on Amy Winehouse anytime, EVER, for the rest of time. And at least a NEVER EVER after that.
Mel Brooks: “If I were God and I had a big overview of it, I would say, ‘Hey, Mel, you were undercompensated.’”
U2 has invited longtime producers Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno to be writers on the new U2 album. A very wise decision.
Every 1.3373 Seconds: Paul Smith and Peter Saville have teamed up to create a limited edition T-shirt in honour of the eagerly-anticipated Anton Corbijn Ian Curtis biopic Control.

We’re totally cereal guys, where is season four of Project Runway?!
Lego NES: Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Select Start.
We would never, EVER want to tarnish or dishonor the incredible legacy of the hilarious and wonderful John Candy, but it looks like Ms. Mario has been taking fashion and fat notes from Del Griffith.
Amy Winehouse looking slightly less junkhead, slightly more Gina Gershon… Just slightly, in both cases. Photos by Bryan Adams. (sigh) Yes. again. that Bryan Adams.
Question: Are Owen Wilson’s injuries in The Darjeeling Limited the result of a botched suicide attempt? If so, CREEPY!
Miss South Carolina, Take Two: The best part is that they split-screen the question and the beginning of her NEW answer (which no one gives a FUCK about) with her swimsuit competition footage. That and Ann Cury’s high five. What a jackass.
Tori Spelling was in Troop Beverly Hills. Also, snakes can lower their metabolic rates by up to 72 percent, and, even in the absence of food, continue to grow!
Seeking financial support? After four months!? What a shame. Such a good looking couple. of retards.
The lesson of this Mum video? Do not look into the Ark of the Covenant when they open it. Even if you’re a drawing.
We’ve got a long board for Elle Macpherson. If you catch our wave.
Conan has Jeff Goldblum, Devon Aoki, and Okkervil River, tonight.
Leslie Feist, joined onstage by members of Broken Social Scene, The New Pornographers, Grizzly Bear, The National, and Mates of State on Letterman last night. Get happy, before it’s YouTakenDown.
Brendan: Jack, why don’t you want to tell people about the new album we’ve got cooking?
Jack: I’ll tell them when the time is right.
Brendan: What time is it right now?
Jack: Three o’clock.
Brendan: But the clock on the wall says 2:10.
Jack: OK, the time is right. The ‘teurs have a lot of new songs in the works people, the writing and structure of them has dissipated and reinvigorated and many times over since we came home from our last shows.
Brendan: We got into the studio as soon as we could, or as soon as LJ would let us.
Jack: Yeah, matter of fact little Jack won’t let us do much without his blessing - and trying to get his blessing is like draining blood from a stone.
Brendan: Is that why the recording sessions were ‘drug fuelled’, Jack?
Jack: I was just kidding when I said that Brendan, don’t believe everything you read. Fact of business; don’t even believe all the things I tell you when it’s just you and me in the room. If little Jack’s there though, then it’s all true.
Brendan: Well, if you consider acidophilus powder a drug, then yes the tank is full of fuel!
Jack: If I was to ever take a drug for pleasure, I would want that drug to be aspirin for all the headaches I get from second hand acidophilus powder and flax seed smoke.
Goldenfiddle: Haha!!! You guys are hilarious!
Brendan:…
Jack:…
Goldenfiddle: Playing off each other like a regular Brad Pitt and George Clooney in Ocean’s 13! Did you guys see that movie? It RULES!
Brendan:…
Jack:…
Goldenfiddle: Seriously, you guys! This is great stuff! So fucking funny. You guys should, like, do an album of just you two, like, talking. Like a comedy album, but just hanging out! Like, just chatting, shooting the shit. You know? Oh, man. We’d buy that shit in a second! This is fucking GOLD, you guys! Haha!!!
“In true circus spirit, Paula Thomas bestowed freakish monikers to her clothes. A little metallic bolero with a ruffle is called “The Midget” and an oversize, chunky knit cardigan that looks like it was made using ski poles answers to the “Beast.” Her new extra-wide scarf, bound to fly off the shelves this fall? It’s called “The Fat Fuck.”” (via Mean)
BREAKING: Butterscotch Stallion Owen Wilson OD’s, er, dehydrates on some serious shit, currently rehydrating amongst Police and attorneys. So, eat it, Winehouse. (Make sure he gets enough skim milk!)
UPDATE: SUICIDE ATTEMPT?!?! “According to the report, a family member discovered Wilson with a sliced left wrist. He also allegedly took an unknown quantity of pills.” (The Enquirer, Star, grain of salt)
Ethel: How’re you feeling?
Richie: Fine, thanks.
Ethel: Are you in any pain?
Richie: Not really.
Chas: Why’d you try to kill yourself?
UPDATE: “Good condition…” for just having tried to kill himself.

Click HERE for a gallery of Raymi modeling the Namibia t-shirt.
The Facts: It’s a cruel, (cruel), cruel summer, leaving you here on your own, it’s a cruel, (it’s a cruel,) cruel summer, now you’re gone, and you need a new t-shirt. Because it’s global warming, not global brisk, almost chilly. This is a light-weight, summer t-shirt, and it’s made just for you. By the keg, on the beach, surfing the web, or passed out in the street, this t-shirt is thimply thinspirational.
The Namibia Is For Lovers! t-shirt is still a 5 color print, featuring the beautiful Namibian flag in the shape of the country, silk-screened on Alternative Apparel’s dangerously soft, (and thin) 100% cotton, pre-washed t-shirts. Check out the handy-dandy size chart if you’re not sure. These things run small. really small. (and a few were printed on American Apparel)
Buy with Paypal and expect your new, favorite, summer t-shirt (and a few, extra free goldenfiddle goodies!) to arrive in the mail in about a week.
BONUS: And for one lucky buyer, picked at random, there will be a little
something extra -EXTRA- special added to their purchase; along with

DISCLAIMER: These final few t-shirts are not all white t-shirts. A few are red, blue, or yellow.

But don’t fret, they all look and feel great. It’ll be a surprise!!!
“In England we have a lot of B-sides that people in America would never know about because we don’t have singles here.” Before we even get to the whole “first of all” part, ever hear of the internet? Okay, first of all, shut the fuck up, Brandon Flowers. Second of all, yes, we do have singles, here. Third of all, shut the fuck up, Brandon Flowers. You’re two albums in (one good, one god awful), and you’re putting out a rarities and B-sides album? Fuck you, Brandon Flowers. Fuck you and the fruity, little moustache you rode in on, you fucking footnote.
With Skeet Ulrich finally out of the picture, and the actual Johnny Depp living in France most of the time, Hills goober Justin Bobby is now totally free to launder Captain Jack’s… everything. Wiki defines “Impersonator” in a couple different ways.
Legally: An entertainer impersonates a celebrity, generally for entertainment, and makes fun of their recent scandals or known behavior patterns. Entertainers who impersonate multiple celebrities as part of their act are typically called impressionists.
Illegally: As part of a criminal act such as identity theft. This is usually where the criminal is trying to assume the identity of another in order to commit fraud such as accessing confidential information or to gain property not belonging to them. Also known as social engineering.
Writer/producer/director/God-of-Comedy Judd “Summer Of” Apatow interviews actor/producer Paul “Stephen” Rudd for Interview magazine.
Apatow: Did having Michelle Pfeiffer as your leading lady create any problems with your wife?
Rudd: It didn’t at all. In fact, the very first day, I had this scene where I was supposed to be making out with Michelle Pfieffer. I told my wife, “Look. I want you to know that I am going to be making out with Michelle Pfeiffer today, and I will be thinking about… Michelle Pfeiffer.” My wife’s response was that when she makes out with me she also thinks about Michelle Pfeiffer.
You’ve worn some gorgeous dresses to red-carpet events. Are you a fashion girl?
[Still mulling over her favorite pastimes] I love hacky sack, as well… What? Do I love fashion?
That was so telling!
[Laughs] I love hacky sack! I spend too much time on the road with men-with Michael (Buble) and his whole band.

TV Guide: There’s buzz that you might be the show’s new baddie since Zachary (Quinto) will be taking off to do Star Trek. Bell: That is a possibility. It’s going to be fun for me to see where she goes. I kind of hope so. It would be really nice to play the bad guy.
TV Guide: Do you have a power? Bell: Yeah, I do. I have a really awesome power.
