Defamer Handicaps The Rumoured Cast Of The All New, Double-Sized ‘Celebrity Apprentice’
7:01AM Seth | Welcome to the most depressing paragraph you’re likely to read today: More »
In a Very Special Boardroom, Joe Francis Tells Trump, ‘Show Me Your Tits’
6:40AM Defamer Hollywood | Currently enmeshed in a terrible global conspiracy involving 17-year-old girls, U.S. District Judges, a shadowy cabal of vampires (and most likely the Stonemasons), Girls Gone Wild proprietor Joe Francis is on the hunt for a way to restore his good name — and there’s no one more willing to help than Donald Trump. Already the crown prince of magnanimity thanks to his selfless (some might say tear-inducing) bail-out of the beleaguered Ed McMahon, Hollyscoop says that the billionaire and the porn purveyor are set to team up: More »
Donald Trump Informercial Hostess Sheds Tears Of Trump-Loving Joy
4:50AM Seth | Yes, you read that headline correctly, and now you can experience the magic for yourselves. This comes to us via Videogum, and it appears (sniff) to be some sort of portal into (whimper, voice crack) Trump’s brilliant, wealth-accumulating mind via your TV at 4 a.m. (sooooobbbbb). After the jump, an equally insane clip about Trump’s love of red meat—a point he’s driven home before on The Apprentice, if we’re not mistaken, in a lyrical metaphor for sexual preference that compared enjoying gay sex to eating spaghetti.

Kathy Griffin Orders A Lauren Conrad Hit On National TV
11:45AM Seth | Sorry to ladle on the Kathy Griffin today, but did she just tell Jay Leno she wants to shoot the cast of The Hills dead? So, basically, if any John Hinckley-type admirers out there are looking for some spectacular gesture of devotion, you’ve just received your marching orders. [Tonight Show] Lede of the Day: “Ronnie Wood has walked out on his wife and four children to live with a teenage cocktail waitress he met in an escort bar.” [Daily Mail] The real Jaws town of Amity had two beaches shut down after an unconfirmed Great White sighting. Then George Lucas appeared in a Speedo to ruin a beloved memory for everyone. [AP] Brett Ratner is bringing together the hottest Jewesses on Earth to pose in your 5769 Hebraic Hotties swimsuit calendar. [Page Six] Bleepers, start your engines: Joan Rivers will be competing in the second season of Celebrity Apprentice. [HuffPo] Hey: Unicorn-Aids! (Not what you’re thinking, sickies.)

Stephen Baldwin Will Leave The Country If Barack Obama Becomes President!
8:30AM Defamer Hollywood | So, the other day on Fox News, amidst a rant about Obama’s support from the liberal Hollywood elite, the decidedly un-elite Stephen Baldwin told Laura Ingram that he’ll leave the country if Barack gets elected. Obviously, the knee-jerk reaction here is to say, “Then we’d better do our best to make sure that happens.” You can see it on Baldwin’s face right after he makes his statement. He knows he’s gonna get murdered in the blogsphere. But that’s not happening here. Not today. I like Baldwin, and I’d be sad not to have him as a citizen of our country. More »

Stephen Baldwin Is Like Roger Deakins, Alex Bogusky and Louis B. Mayer All Rolled Into One
10:20AM Mark Graham | While most of America has shown only a passing interest in Semi-Celebrity Apprentice (an interest that continues to fade each week), we have found it to be one of the few great small-screen joys of this strike-ravaged season. Not because the challenges are particularly interesting, mind you; our interest lies mainly in observing this pack of Type-A C-Listers trade on their varying levels of “fame” and hubris like social currency (see: Stephen Baldwin in the clip above). Rarely are the challenges on Donald Trump’s resurrected show about who has a better grasp on the four Ps; rather, it’s more about watching these fame-hungry jackals tear down their competitors’ self-worth while attempting to build theirs up. As close-to-brilliant as the show is in its current incarnation, we can only imagine how subversively stupendous it could be if Cris Abrego and Mark Cronin were steering the ship instead of Mark Burnett.

NBC Greenlights Second Season Of Just-Successful-Enough ‘Celeb Apprentice’
6:20AM Mark | · Encouraged by the good-enough numbers generated by viewers lured to Celebrity Apprentice by the depressing lack of programming alternatives, NBC greenlights a second season of Donald Trump’s salvaged franchise. Calls are already flooding in from other lesser-Baldwins, starving reality-show alumni, and aging supermodels hoping to fill out the next installment’s roster of semi-recognizable names. [Variety] · Though Fox, powered by American Idol and The Moment of Truth, is rolling along during a strike-affected early 2008, this week the top five broadcasters are down 21% in the 18-49 demographic compared to the same period from last year.

Alec Baldwin Knows Not Of Pedestrian Things Like Inkjet Cartridges
9:07AM Defamer Hollywood | On last night’s episode of NBC’s newest pulse-pounding series, Sorta-Celebrity Apprentice, Team Hydra and The Other Team found themselves suddenly plunged into the high stakes world of inkjet cartridge sales. Ask anyone who works at Staples, that shit is NO! JOKE! For real. Anyway, as we’ve learned through the course of the first three episodes, the real competition on this show has nothing to do with who wins a given challenge, it’s all about which Not-Really-That-Famous-Anymore Celebrity has the most number of famous digits in their cellphone and is not afraid to use ‘em. And last night, Stephen Baldwin raised the ante somethin’ fierce by putting in a call to the most famous person that he knows. And no, it wasn’t Billy Baldwin. More »
