‘My Date With Michael Phelps,’ By Some Chick Who Works At The Vegas Sunset Tan
6:59AM Seth | As Sunset Tans‘ famed Olly Girls continue their important work somewhere in our solar system—we think they’re currently colonizing the first tanning studios on Mars—we thought we’d check in with some of the E!-documented bronzing franchise’s earthbound bulb-bunnies. Attendant Amber Peterson, for example, currently manning the beds at their Las Vegas oupost, couldn’t be more excited about her obsessively documented date with a certain superstar Olympic gold medalist—and here’s a hint: it’s not female weightlifting champion Prapawadee Jaroenrattanatarakoon of Thailand. It’s Michael Phelps! More »
The Sun Has Yet To Set On The Olly Girls
7:05AM Mark Graham | When we last checked in with Sunset Tan’s paragons of peroxide, The Olly Girls, they were in the process of being shitcanned from their jobs at the most prestigious tanning salon ever shown on basic cable television. But as the old saying goes, time second season storyboarding sessions heal all wounds. Or do they? After wearing Pauly Shore’s patience thin and subsequently being fired from their positions as his bikini-clad housecleaning staff, Holly and Molly —or is it Molly and Holly?— decided to band together in an attempt to win over the leathery overlords who control the business that made them (marginally) famous last year, Jeff and Devin. Rather than going the Al Gore route and pulling together a PowerPoint presentation to showcase the value they can add to the business, the ditzy duo decided the best approach to getting their prestigious jobs as Sales Associates In Training back would be to break out their Crayola markers and start plotting out the X and Y axes on what they called their Happiness Chart.

‘Big Brother’ Houseguests Bravely Battle Earthquake with Torrent of ‘Omigawds,’ Stripping
3:40AM Defamer Hollywood | Following a 5.4 earthquake that dealt most of its damage to people’s Facebook status updates (”Jim is: EARTHQUAKE!”), it was only natural to wonder how the tremor might have affected the city’s old, its infirm, and its Big Brother 10 residents. Fortunately, the Hollywood Reporter can help us out on at least one of those fronts: its video update reveals that the Big Brother houseguests bypassed the “Is that a truck? Oh, wait…” stage experienced by most Los Angelenos, instead rushing out into the backyard to doff their clothes and trade “Omigawds.” Video after the jump. More »Short Ends: Olly Girls Alive And Well
5:30AM Defamer Hollywood | We realise we left many of you hanging last week when we posted the shocking clip in which the beloved Olly Girls of Sunset Tan were let go for failing to fully commit to their accelerator-pimping duties. As this Yo on E! clip plainly shows, however, the girls are in good spirits, and ready for whatever spray-on-nozzle-clearing challenges lie ahead. Drew Carey waxes philosophical about suddenly finding himself in a game show ghetto. Now it’s Virgie Arthur vs. Howard K. Stern on the Anna Nicole Sue-Go-Round. Every lyric from Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” explained with a hyperlink. No, your eyes are not deceiving you. That’s Barbara Walters making out with Star Jones on a New York city street!

3:30AM Defamer Hollywood | On last night’s Sunset Tan, the unthinkable occurred: the Olly Girls, whose airheaded misadventures in artificial pigmentation are responsible for the most compelling half-hour of tanning-related reality television on basic cable, were let go in a boardroom dismissal ceremony that would make even the heartless Donald wince from its cruelty.
