 | you didnt hear it from me…by nikkib issue no. 2 on popbytes Have you ever met someone and instantly felt like you shared a brain? That’s how I felt when I started reading popbytes – I am pleased to tell you that we watch all of the same tv shows – and we share the same viewpoints about these shows! It’s not everyday I find someone who takes ‘American Idol,’ ‘Alias,’ and ‘Days of Our Lives’ as seriously as I do. And I don’t know anyone else who watched soap opera, ‘Santa Barbara’ from begin til end! This site is a fun read and it makes me chuckle everyday. I know most of you watch the same crap…er…fine programming that we do. So, check it out and sign up for the newsletter popbytes roundup (look up!). Oh, and you can also read my little ol’ column there (here)! |
Oh, puhleeze!
Mischa Barton was in a tizzy Tuesday night when she arrived at Chelsea’s Marquee nightclub with boyfriend Brandon Davis, heir to a Hollywood oil fortune. ‘Are there paparazzi out there?’ she asked, poking a very worried face out of a friend’s Bentley. ‘Are there? Are there?’
‘Do you see any paparazzi out here?’ came the doorman’s reply. There were none.
Miss Barton’s concerns might have been a tad presumptuous. No one seemed to recognize the sultry ‘OC’ star.
‘Mischa Barton? Who is that?’ asked a non-TV watcher at the club. ‘I just said hi to Brandon, but who’s Mischa?’
Nevertheless, the starlet hid her face and physically attached herself to Davis as they were escorted through the packed club to the private VIP room.
But this diva-in-training episode was a rerun. At a recent private party, she snapped when two girls asked who she was, Barton hissed, ‘You just hate me because I’m famous!’ Maybe. – {Elisa Lipsky-Karasz, NYPost.com}
Usher is so hot I don’t even care about this.
Usher should learn some airborne etiquette. The chart-topping singer and his huge entourage held up American Airlines Flight 159 from New York to Los Angeles Thursday as they schmoozed with the plane’s captain. ‘They actually allowed Usher and his security guards to go inside the cockpit!’ one frustrated passenger text messaged us. ‘He has got more Louis Vuitton luggage with him than Elizabeth Taylor and now they are making people switch seats!’ At text message time, Usher and company had held up boarding by over 20 minutes. ‘People are going to miss their [connecting flights]!’ our spy typed. Several minutes later: ‘Now [Usher] is hanging out talking to someone in the front row of first class so he gets noticed. He should sit down, hide and shut up like celebrities do…now he’s drinking champagne.’ The flight did finally take off and Susan Blond, a rep for Usher, said: ‘It doesn’t sound like Usher. He is always respectful of everyone.’ – {PageSix.com}
I hate it that this otherwise low-key, cool celeb couple is acting all ‘Bennifer’ on us.
Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were making out like a couple of teenagers at Bungalow 8 Monday night.
The pair fled the packed Troy after-party at Cipriani 42nd Street, and anyone who actually spoke to the disarmingly flirtatious Pitt was immediately tackled by teenage girls asking frantically, ‘Is he nice? Is he nice?’
The couple, clearly the prom king and queen of the celeb world, with their impossibly shiny hair, perfectly even tans and alarmingly white smiles, beat a hasty retreat out the back entrance and headed for Bungalow 8, where Bono had already taken up residence at a back table to celebrate his 44th birthday. Among famous friends like super agent Bryan Lourd, and supermodels Cindy Crawford and Helena Christensen, Pitt and Aniston – still the best-looking pair in the room – made out right at the table.
‘They looked very much the couple,’ said one clubgoer. ‘They were having a good time.’ What a skirt chaser. – {Elisa Lipsky-Karasz, NYPost.com}
For those of you who still give a shit about ‘The Apprentice’
(What about ex-Firestone babe, Jen Scheft?!) ‘The Apprentice’ winner Bill Rancic was caught in full canoodle with former co-star Amy Henry at Sushi Samba the other night. Rancic was rumored to have romanced Henry after her fling with another contestant, Nick Warnock, who now sells ads for Jason Binn’s Gotham magazine. Our spies say that Rancic and Henry were tongue-wrestling at a secluded spot on the roof of the restaurant and got up to leave after they realized that ‘Survivor’ sweethearts Ethan Zohn and Jenna Morasca were watching their P.D.A. from a nearby table. – {PageSix.com}
