Our First Big Brother Eviction

Australian Post Posted by Jess McGuire at 3:59 PM on May 7, 2007

katebigbrothereviction.jpgIt would be easy to forget, what with the glamour and glitz of the Logie Awards, that last night also saw the first Big Brother housemate eviction for this season of Big Brother. The nation were asked to choose between Jamie, Bodie and Kate, and they decided to ditch the lass who'd been in the headlines all week in regards to Babygate - something of a surprise when you consider the recent swell of sympathy and support for her in the wake of the scandal.

In other electrifying news from the house, TJ and Bodie - the bogan King and Queen of the house - seem to have gone their separate ways.

We'll let you know as soon as we hear officially that she's smothered him in his sleep.

This is our last Logies related post, promise.

Enjoy Dave Hughes being amusing. And if you want to turn it into a drinking game, have a shot every time he says "Seriously..."

Pete Doherty Arrested (#1688 In A Series)

Australian Post Posted by Jess McGuire at 2:43 PM on May 7, 2007

Pete DohertyMr Kate Moss himself, the inimitable Pete Doherty, has found himself on the wrong side of the law once again.

British rock star Pete Doherty, partner of supermodel Kate Moss, was arrested on Saturday night on suspicion of possessing "Class A" banned drugs, The Sun tabloid reported.

Though a police spokesman declined to confirm whether Doherty specifically was arrested, he said: "At 2200 hours (0700 Sunday AEST) on the 5th (of May), police stopped a vehicle on Kensington High Street.

"A 28-year-old male driver was arrested on suspicion of possession of a class A drug. He was taken to a west London police station, and later bailed to return in June pending further inquiries."

According to The Sun, Doherty was held in the police station overnight.

Surely the Metropolitan Police Service should put Pete on some kind of rewards program to thank him his impressive ongoing loyalty as a customer.

That said, we refuse to believe he or Kate take drugs anymore. There must be some mistake. They're just free spirits! Swears! Enjoy a few clips documenting their sweaty-faced, bleary-eyed love, please.



Lindsay Lohan's To Do List - Twenty Lines Of Coke, Jude Law, Wash Dingy Grey Bra Top...

Lindsay Lohan.  Picture: Wild1 / Photorazzi Lindsay Lohan is probably not the best advertisment for the Wonderland treatment centre she attended a couple of months back. Hot on the heels of declaring she thinks, like, she might not have had a drug problem at all, British tabloid News Of The World have published photos of her doing her best impersonation of Johnny Depp in Blow alongside a rather juicy tell all from a (cough) concerned friend.

Sordid snaps of her snorting the drug and shoving it up a pal's nose was taken as she and two friends crammed into a club toilet during a wild night on the town.

Then the Mean Girls star bragged to the others: "I'm going to New York tomorrow to f*** Jude Law."

Now a friend of the 21-year-old actress says she is spiralling out of control since rehab and revealed that Lohan:

SNORTED 20 lines of cocaine in ONE night alone

STRIPPED down to a thong before inhaling the drug off a coffee table

BRAGGED of wild sex sessions with a host of celebrities including singer James Blunt and model Calum Best.

Yes, Lindsay Lohan is quite obviously in desperate need of professional help. She's running around town bragging about fucking James Blunt, for god's sake. Her descent into drug-fueled madness is more serious than we ever thought.

Insider Footage From The TV Week Logie Awards

Australian Post Posted by Jess McGuire at 2:21 PM on May 7, 2007

Turns out Defamer Australia had an operative working at the TV Week Logie Awards, gathering secret footage via the magic of a mobile phone video recorder, AND WE DIDN'T EVEN REALISE.

Well, to be fair, we never asked Red Symons to collect such blurry nuggets of behind-the-scenes gold for us, but thank god he did. Well done, sir.

Featuring cameo appearances from Larry Emdur, Grant Denyer, Jennifer Hawkins, and Kate Ceberano's cans, we couldn't be more pleased with the clip, as it shows us - in a total Being John Malkovich sort of way - just what it's like to experience the wonder of the TV Week Logie Awards from the perspective of a guest.



Defamer Australia's Wrap Up Of The TV Week Logie Awards

Australian Post Posted by Jess McGuire at 11:19 AM on May 7, 2007

TV Week Logie AwardsHow on earth do we begin wrapping up an awards ceremony as ridiculously extravagant and gripping as The Logies? With great haste, little introduction, and by using an excessive amount of bold capitalised font to appropriately convey our over-excited perspective on the evening. Let's roll.

BIGGEST SHOCK OF THE EVENING! When the award for Most Outstanding Children's TV Program went to the Umbilical Brothers, we were gutted to discover the two are not in fact brothers, and it's not as if it's a case that they both coincidentally share the same surname of Umbilical. They're totally unrelated, and their names are Shane Dundas and David Collins. We feel like we've been lied to all our lives. On the upside, their onstage antics (peace signs behind the head of their producer, the odd popping sound) proved once and for all their special brand of comedy will never age, but rather stay as fresh and relevant as ever. Ahem.

More after the jump...
