Julianne Moore’s Illegitimate Daughter?

In this photo from the set of Entourage, doesn’t Leighton Meester look like she should be immediately cast as Julianne Moore’s daughter in some sort of chick flick? I never saw any sort of resemblance before, as the coloring is all wrong, but the facial features are all right.

Of course, Leighton is making kind of a funny face here. Alternatively, she could play Julianne Moore in some sort of flashback. OR! Julianne Moore could come on Gossip Girl and play Blair’s real mom! Because you know that woman who used to be on As the World Turns is not awesome enough to have birthed Blair Waldorf. Although Blair’s dad is gay, so I don’t know if he could have been catting around with other women. Well, the writers can work out the details, but the idea is free!

Difficult Pronunciations for $200

Melora Hardin’s girls are cute and all, but is the older one really named Rory Melora? Isn’t that kind of like naming your kid Rural Juror?

Children’s Movie or Child Abuse?

I just watched E.T. for the first time since, probably, it was in theaters. It was the redone version where the guys have walkie-talkies instead of guns. When it started, I was thinking, “I should get this for my nephews if it’s still available on DVD. They would love it! Maybe I shold wait a year or two since they’re six and four now.” You know, the cute part in the beginning where E.T. is using the Speak’n'Spell and Gertie is dressing him up in a wig and hat.

Now that the movie is reaching its end, there is no way in hell I’m ever showing them this movie. It’s the saddest goddamn thing I’ve ever seen. The whole part where the government guys come in and set up that lab or whatever? Scary! “I’ll be right here.”? Is there any sadder line in cinematic history? How in the hell did I watch this as a kid? I must have been ten or so. Jesus Christ, Spielberg. You’re killing me over here.

I Know No One Will Believe This

I know no one is going to believe this, but when I saw Will Arnett on Conan a few weeks back (just looked it up, and it was February 25), and he was talking about quitting smoking, I remember thinking, “I bet Amy Poehler is either pregnant, or they’re trying to get pregnant.” I knew I should have posted it here, because it turns out I was right.

The Real Concern

clipped from www.bestweekever.tv

You know, everyone is all up in arms about Miley Cirus’s topless photo, which, whatever. I think Linda said everything I was thinking on that topic. But why isn’t anyone talking about the skeevy photo Miley took with her dad (above)? Seriously? Would any of you EVER sit like that with your DAD? I mean, even at 15, I might jokingly sit on my dad’s lap but it was like TEETERING on the edge of his knees, not all snuggled up. There’s just something about this photo, with her pouty lips and jutting hipbone that bothers me. Maybe it’s my issues. But tell me, if someone presented this to you and said, “This is some dude and his much-younger girlfriend,” based on the body language alone, you wouldn’t believe it.

I’m not in any way implying there’s anything untoward going on between Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus. I’m just saying that they REALLY need to be more careful about the public image they present, unless they’re doing it on purpose, and then it’s just gross.

All I Want for Christmas Is..

Max, originally uploaded by Kim Reed.

Did I mention Max lost his two front teeth? They were a little bit loose, and then thanks to an accidental headbutt from his brother, they both fell out. So now we call him Fang. But I still think he looks super cute.

OMFG!

The PTC is upset about the “cleavage kissing” depicted in the new ads for Gossip Girl. First of all, welcome to America because those ads have been all over the place for like two weeks. Second of all, I noticed that there were two versions of the ad running — one that said “OMG” and one that said “OMFG” which I thought was hilarious. And third of all, if you’ve watched the show, you know that the acts depicted in this ad are the least of your concerns if your young children are watching. There’s infidelity, drug use (and not just by the “bad” character, and there’s not usually negative consequences!), premarital sex, and most of the other seven deadly sins. Which is why I love the show, but if the ad campaign is what’s cluing you in to the moral depravity of the show, well then, I think it’s doing its job.

Not A-List Enough

So Spencer Pratt has decided that Heidi can’t go to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on her own (although I wonder why she was invited in the first place) because A) he wasn’t invited too and B) it’s not A-Listy enough. Wow, unlike the other recent events Heidi and Spencer have attended (according to WireImage) like the “Hughes Vision presents Threads for Thoughts Viewing Party” and “Perez Hilton’s Quinceanera”. Everyone knows that the real reason he didn’t want her to go was because he wouldn’t be there to feed her the answers to reporters’ questions. Um, not that I’ve heard he does that or anything.

B-Side’s Back!

I don’t know if any of you ever read B-Side’s hilarious recaps at TVGasm (he was one of the site’s founders), but I did. And I loved them. Especially the Laguna Beach ones. Anyway, they sold TVGasm and left the site (wow, sounds familiar) and now he’s writing on his own site. His Big Brother photocaps are especially awesome. You kind of have to start from the beginning to get all the inside jokes (like Sheila’s “Yew know wut? You don’t [blank], but yew kinda dew.”). All the better to waste time at work!

As a Point of Comparison

Relative to my previous post, here’s a picture of Tori Spelling, who’s due a month earlier. And Tori has been going around yapping about how she’s been so much more careful about weight gain this time around. I realize second-time moms pop faster and all that, but I still think something’s up with Nicole Kidman.
