Adam Sandler Presents: A Kid’s Guide to Understanding the Holidays
2:01AM STV | It’s not always easy for young children of different faiths to distinguish the singular pleasures of Christmas from those of Chanukah. Now, thanks to Adam Sandler, the distinction is clearer than ever. More »
Thousands of Drunken Co-Worker Trysts in Jeopardy as Industry Cuts Back Holiday Parties
5:53AM STV | The odds that you remember the drunken, depraved glories of your employer’s past holiday parties are virtually nil, so most of Hollywood shouldn’t be too upset today to hear how the recession-to-be is affecting this year’s big industry fetes. Variety reports that Disney and Viacom won’t be celebrating at all, while other studios are scaling back their own events and even awards-season premieres to the extent their needy talent will allow. And if the global economic meltdown didn’t feel like a crisis before, wait until you hear how the caterers will be hit: More »
Hello There, Brigitte Nielsen!
8:09AM Jess McGuire | Hang on a moment, that isn’t Flavor Flav’s favourite reality show hook up! No, it’s Ms Lily Allen looking sleek, blonde, and all sunkissed during a holiday in the French Riviera. My, but isn’t she a fetching little number? Bang that, etc…
When you’re on the Riviera at this time of year, there are so many famous and beautiful faces around it’s hard to stand out from the crowd.
But Lily Allen managed it – thanks to a shock of peroxide hair, a skimpy bikini and a sultry pose.
The 23-year-old singer revealed her new blonde look at the exclusive Hotel du Cap – Eden Roc in Antibes on Tuesday, the eve of the opening day of the Cannes Film Festival.
With the world’s media watching out for A-list celebrities, Miss Allen stripped down to her bikini bottoms to sunbathe on the terrace of the hotel, where she is staying with friends.
I like that the last sentence above sounds a little as though the press are looking for real stars, but while Allen is looking so spunky, they’re prepared to snap a couple of shots of her too.
To see more of Lily On Holiday, including some topless bikini shots (it’s Europe, it’s natural!), head over to that highbrow publication known as the Daily Mail. More » 
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun: The Kylie & Natalie Story
11:04AM Jess McGuire | We had no idea Kylie Minogue and Natalie Imbruglia were BFFs, but it seems the pair have graduated from champagne fueled post-Brits flexibility competitions to holidaying together!
Pop stars Kylie Minogue and Natalie Imbruglia have teamed up for a girls’ holiday in Mauritius.
The Australian stars, who have both starred in Neighbours, have been staying at a luxury £3000-a-night ($6300) Shanti Ananda resort on the tropical island.
The Sunday Mirror newspaper in Britain reported the stars, who are both single after Minogue’s split with French actor Oliver Martinez and the breakdown of Imbruglia’s marriage to Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns, were being pampered.
We can only imagine the gossipy conversations going on as we speak, the petite pair lying side by side on massage tables and having the stresses of the pop world rubbed and pounded out of them.
K: Do you really think Olivier was cheating on me?
N: Of course not! Do you really think Daniel was bumming Paul Mac?
K: No way!
N: Oh, great. Hey, do you like Razorlight?
K: They’re okay, I suppose. That reminds me, how’d you enjoy that DVD I lent you?
N: Bio-Dome? Hilarious!
K: And, you know, you were really good in Johnny English.
N: Thanks, babe. Do you think I’m prettier than Delta Goodrem?
K: Bitch, please. You are SO much better than her!
N: I know. I dated someone from Friends, you know.
K: I kissed Doctor Who.
N: Wanna go have some shots and flirt with the bar staff?
K: Lets.
There is another highly idiotic way to interpret this news.
Kylie and Natalie are holidaying together, eh? A… romantic getaway perhaps? Did Daniel Johns mean to tack on “… but my fucking ex-wife is!” to the end of his Big Day Out outburst?
Well, no. Probably not. But imagine how fucking awesome it would be if these two unlucky in love Australian pop starlets found love in each other’s bony arms? More »
