Prattle

SpencerradarIn Radar's "Yo Spencer!" online column, The Hills dude Spencer Pratt keeps it real (ahem) answering your burning (sensation) questions, like this one:

How long do you have to date someone before it's appropriate to bring up the possibility of anal sex?

If you're dating a guy, right away. If you're dating girl, I think you'll know pretty quick if she's into that. If they're not bringing it up, it's not something on their agenda. That's just realistic. My boxing coach Dirty Phi says, "If you stick your pinkie in there, and then another finger, and then another, and she responds happily, then it's cool."

Let's Go Shopping!

Verysexthecity
Photoshopping, that is. This is just one of hundreds of stiff female-bonding photos yet to come in a deluge of promotion for the May 30 release of the overblown and over-hyped big-screen reworking of Sex and the City, and thank god we have Elizabeth Spiridakis and her Very blog in the New York Times to deconstruct it. Yeah, it's from last week or so, but it's still fresher than these tired ladies. Bitchy fun. (The Moment; t/y Randy)

Mayer's Hair

Jmayerphoto-1"Today I set off on my newest project," says the ever-more-interesting John Mayer on his blog. "To grow and maintain an authentic '80s style feathered haircut. It's something I've wanted to do for some time and I'm very excited to bring this amazing look into today's pop culture landscape. The feathered cut projects an attitude of ease and quiet confidence that seems to have all but eluded our generation. This is a work in progress, and as my hair grows longer it will serve to become a more stirring and poignant statement."

Talk About PopMuse

PopMuse had a post yesterday about our ¡Viva Hollywood! show. And we were honored to be mentioned because the Muse has such good taste in pop culture and what we love about the guy is that he always gets what we do. Just saying.

A bandit broke into a California sex shop and stole a rubber replica of porn actress Jenna Jameson and Laist rose to the challenge, headlining the story "Robber Snatches Rubber Snatch." Our hat and pants are off to the wag who came up with that. (Photo: allygirl520 via Flickr)

Lipstick on His Conscience

Nevnswowowowpic
Randy Barbato points us toward today's WOWOWOW, the blog from a bevy of celebrity Women on the Web, and in particular to HBO's Sheila Nevins' interactive contribution. "It's hot fiction written by someone who has spent her life in FACTUAL!" says Randy.

Depth Charge

Bobama02Gwbush003Acohen
"Obama's speech yesterday was something to see," says Andy Cohen on his "Andy's Blog" at Bravotv.com. "When was the last time a candidate stood for something and stood by someone controversial? When was the last time a candidate has spoken with such depth? When was the last time our President spoke with ANY depth whatsoever? Has he ever? Seriously, is there a speech that he has made that is memorable? Put our President up against Obama, Hillary, McCain, Ron Paul, Jessica Simpson, Donald Trump, the residents of the 'Big Brother' house and all the 'Real Housewives' and see where he falls on the depth scale. I dare ya!"

Cry Me a Rivers

Joanspic-2
Living in LA, one doesn't get out to the theater much. I think the last show I saw was Naked Porn Stars Singing at the Henry Fonda. Well, tonight I'm going to see Joan Rivers' one woman show at the David Geffen. And in case anyone was ever in any doubt, she hates LA. It's official.

We Are Not the WOW Women

06Wow-1It should be noted here that the new website named WOWOWOW, which launches on Saturday, is not related to WOW or to the WOW Report which you're currently reading. Our WOW stands for World of Wonder but at least some of the Ws and Os in WOWOWOW stand for Women on the Web (we're scratching our head over the others). Where the WOW Report is a site mostly about celebrities, WOWOWOW is a site whose entries are posted by celebrities – WOW women they're called, 15 of them, including Lily Tomlin, Liz Smith, Leslie Stahl, Candice Bergen, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jane Wagner – and the content, which comes from their BlackBerrys, iPhones, and laptops, is intended mostly for women over 40. And that's where we're not so different, maybe. (Photo: Harry Benson)

Stuff White People Like

 4 How-To-Apologize
Beloved Moye Ishimoto just turned me onto a hilarious blog via her blog Chopstix, called Stuff White People Like. Here's an extract from #55, Apologies:

White people know that their ancestors did some messed up things. As a result, it has become hard wired for them to apologize for almost anything. In fact, white people are so used to apologizing that they start all sentences that might cause disagreement with “I’m sorry.” For example “I’m sorry, but Garden State was a better film than Hard Eight.”

In other cases, white people will apologize without being asked. “Excuse me Dylan, you dropped a piece of paper in front of my desk.” “Oh, sorry about that!” It’s just that easy! Just point it out and they’ll apologize.

There Will Be Blog

"Please link, as I think this is hilarious," writes Fishbowl LA's Kate Coe, who's been accused by Alex Constantine on his blacklist blog of being an anti-Semite friend of Ann Coulter with ties to the CIA. "I've met Ann Coulter once (in the company of [Slate's] Mickey Kaus)," she says, "and I've written for the Jewish Journal, so they must be unaware of my Antisemitism. And while I've freelanced for FOX, so has most everyone in TV. I've worked for Larry David, who wasn't too upset about my alleged ties to Rupert Murdoch. Where did I go wrong?" Coe, who worked a spell at World of Wonder not long ago, is described in her Fishbowl bio as "enchantingly witty, delightfully acerbic, and never unintentionally rude." (Also)

Blog Pudding

Lost was so inscrutable last night I decided to start catching up on my unread blogs from the last six months.

DcooperstompashtrayGays on the moon?

• Has Britney bought a new house?

• A runway too far? The Village Voice had this to say: "Make Me a Supermodel makes America's Next Top Model look like Troilus and Cressida... Oh well. Next week, a cadre of young sylphs who have never had to eat a moray or study at Berlitz will defy child-labor laws and glide down the runways of New York's Fashion Week as the Dow plummets and consumer confidence approaches zero.

Dennis Cooper's fab ashtray collection.

Isabella Rossellini's bug porn. I came across this at Sundance but thought it was just boring Nat Geo type doco shorts of preying mantises ripping each other's heart out. But no.

• And – at last – the academic perspective on 2girls1cup; the thesis behind the feces.

Bigfoot Siting

GaybigfootjimwritGaybigfootbonaner
Artist Gay Bigfoot airs his banana on Laist today. You'll recall that the contributor to World of Wonder's "Warhol Dead at 21" group show at the Storefront Gallery tried to get his Warhol banana image printed at Cafe Press and Zazzle and ran into judgment calls. Zach Behrens conducts a nice interview with Bigfoot, who honestly appears to be normal size to us.

James and His Giant Reach

Jsjfreakshowthumb
On Bradford Shellhammer's extremely colorful blog, Bradford Shellhammer (jeez, why couldn't we have a cool name like that?), he explains why he loves James St James' young-adult novel, Freak Show, so much. In part:

Ten years ago, when I was Billy Bloom’s age, books like this did not exist. Had they, I bet there would have been less pain in my life, and the entire world. Thank God for James St. James. He’s given a generation of freaks, fags, and misfits a tale to call their own. The tale of the outsider seeking acceptance is an old one. But the tale of drag queen seeking it is something new entirely. And the fact that it is age appropriate, unlike much gay fiction, makes it even better. Get one for every teen on your shopping list, whether they’re freaks or just fond of those types of people.

Andy Blogs Andy

Andy Cohen, Bravo's senior VP of production and programming, came to the Friday-night opening of our "Warhol Dead at 21" group art show and wrote about it today on his Andy's Blog at Bravotv.com:

Leave it to "World of Wonder" honchos Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey to bring out a crowd more befitting the East Village than LA for their "Night of a Thousand Warhols" opening Friday night of "Warhol Dead at 21," their group exhibition of art inspired by Andy Warhol. They handed out Warhol wigs to all who entered; I need no further proof that wigs make a party great. And here's me and Randy working ours:

Andyandrandy
James St James invented a new drink at the party, an Airborne and Vodka fizzy. You take voddy (and I think a little soda) and drop an Airborne into it. It is DeLish! And NuTrish! And very orange! And Fizzy! It's too good to be legal. Chris Crocker AKA THE "Leave Britney Alone" Guy was there too. It was a scene!

For those of you who don't know, Randy and Fenton have created an art gallery in the storefront below World of Wonder HQ on Hollywood Blvd. They have monthly installations of art inspired by everyon from Britney to the Golden Girls. They've created a real LA 'Happening' 4 stories below where they crank out quality TV shows and the WOW Report online. This is a true multimedia company, people! And did I mention that the whole space was wrapped in silver mylar.

Get Out the Vote

Frenchbulldogpuppies
Just as with airlines and local news shows, there are many choices for your queer-blog browsing, but the one we mop from the most is !!omg blog!! because it runs the gamut from kittens to cocks, puppies to penises. Which is a gamut we feel most comfortable running in. The site has made it to the Final Three in the Gay Bloggies and in this time of election frenzy and celebrity stumping we feel compelled to throw our support behind one of the candidates for the $2,500 prize. So we urge you to vote for OMG's Frank because, even though his sexy karaoke entry might not get him past Idol auditions, he's a sweet kid and his blog is always highly browseable – and he's a friend of WOW. It'd be nice if you clicked here and voted Thumbs Up for Frank, then voted Thumbs Down for the other two, like we did. Thanks for your time.

On Little Cat Feat

Beckettboocanblogger-1How does the mischievous Beckett Boo, Esq, Cat Blogger Extraordinaire!™© feel now that he's finished six months of detoxification at Promises? A lot better it seems:

These days the air smells significantly sweeter, but life is tedious and remarkably boring. I miss my opium infused Mint Julips and my crack dealer, Rajj. But, I have noticed positive changes in my day to day life since my release. For instance, I've read the first 30 pages of about 200 books. I use an escalator instead of an elevator. I tie my own ascot. I like running around nude in the sprinklers. I eat pork chops. My penis grew 14 inches, and I suddenly feel things...like "feelings."

When Nora Blogged Rosie

Nephronrosieblog
Rosie O'Donnell isn't welcoming guests onto The View anymore, but they're still welcome on her blog. Yesterday, humorist Nora Ephron had a go at blog writing courtesy of Ro. The author of the current bestseller I Feel Bad About My Neck (not to mention writer-director of the chick hits Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail) contributed an olio of haiku, blank verse, self-conscious rambling, and a personal anecdote about The View:

I even made my husband watch.
And he did. On the treadmill.
I said, trust me, it’s riveting
It’s a hockey game
There might be blood on the ice 
You’ll see.
He had to admit it was amazing 
He wasn’t just being nice 
He meant it 
Then he went back to watching the World Series of Poker.

Fugs and Kisses

Gofugbobbytrendy
Please, somebody nominate the Go Fug Yourself girls for a Nobel. The submission of a slim paragraph for consideration would easily win them the prize. Here's Heather's tersely hilarious deconstruction of Bobby Trendy's ensemble at last night's American Idol finale:

If Charo ever needs a footman for a horse-drawn carriage, this is what the uniform would look like. And if America were ever invited into the Eurovision Song Contest on some sort of honorary visa – like, say, if Luxembourg were to just give up and admit it kind of needs to mow the lawn that night anyway, deferring its spot to us – I would send over Bobby Trendy. It doesn't even matter if he can sing. Between the tulle and the stripper boots and the choker and the little bow befitting only the most spoiled poodle at the dog show, he would be COMPLETELY underdressed, and half the acts would look over at him and snort, "Oh, please, who invited Laura Ingalls Wilder?"

The Son of Blog

ChristsblogAbouthim
Jesus has a blog. Don't know where he finds the time. And who knew Christ had a sense of humor. Certainly no mention of that in the Bible (we're told). In his most recent post, he explains why he had to come up with the concept of the Easter Bunny and those Peeps. "I know it doesn't make any sense," he says. "That's why it's funny!"

If the US version of BB had uncensored scenes of male bonding in the showers, it would blow American Idol off the charts. Frank at OMG blog, bless him, is not shy about posting totally nude, totally NSFW moments between Rudy and housemate Andrea and between Rudy and his, er, best friend, so we'll send you there.

Blog Force Trauma

Unclebobpicture"It seems that WOW isn't alone in dealing with nasty, threatening posts," says our San Francisco friend Quartknee, who sent us this link to a San Francisco Chronicle story today about a blogger named Kathy Sierra whose anonymous commenter posted death threats and images like the one here, causing her to shut down the comments section of her site and sparking a heated web debate on free speech and the nature of online discourse. (Here)

Sierra detailed the incident on her blog on Monday, and the site has received more than 1,200 comments since then. At issue are a series of threats, filed by an unknown person for unknown reasons, on Sierra's blog and on a group of sites dedicated to criticizing the philosophies of Sierra and others. Hundreds of bloggers have offered up their own posts in her defense, including many from women in the tech world who say they've been the victims of similar threats and harassment. In Sierra's case, no one is clear about why she would be singled out for such particularly nasty threats.

Sure, this is relatively old, from December '06, but Posh has been super busy of late packing up the London digs and trying to find a house in Los Angeles for under $20 million, so it's no wonder she hasn't had a moment to update her dVbStyle blog. We've looked at this short "Bang and Olufsen" clip in the blog's vbtv section 15 times today and we can't seem to get enough of watching her exit a Starbucks and say, enigmatically, "It's like coming out of a Bang and Olsen stereo system – how cool is that!"

Little Dis Sunshine

Sunshineensemble
Johnny Lopez at The Johnny Lopez has a problem with (the overrated) Little Miss Sunshine winning best ensemble at the SAG ceremony. Actually, he seems to have a problem with Little Miss Sunshine winning anything at all anywhere. Reasons 1, 3, and 5:

1. Steve Carell's character bumping into his ex at the rest stop on the highway. REALLY?! This isn't an episode of "Friends" people!
3. That Toni Collette's character would go to all this trouble to get her daughter to a beauty pageant, yet has no clue what her daughter's routine is until she's on stage? REALLY?!
5. The family driving around with Alan Arkin's dead body in the van. REALLY?! Actually, I thought this was funny too...in "National Lampoon's Vacation"!

Blog Pudding

Apart from the obvious, like Defamer and Go Fug Yourself and Musto, which are founts of exhaustively well-written and consistently hilarious fare day after day, there are other blogs we love, and every so often we like to mention them in Blog Pudding.

• As you might imagine, Gentlemans Canine Society is devoted to dogs. Dogs belonging to celebrities, dog products, dogs in history, books about dogs, dogs belonging to artists, dogs in art. It's pretty much a dog blog. “When I got home [from shooting King Kong] my dog didn’t know me at first," says Adrien Brody in a post today, "but then when I got into bed Ceelo kissed me and cried for an hour straight."

Golden Fiddle's Spencer Sloan is dry as dust about the usual and tiresome blog suspects, and dispenses subtle venom briskly in, bless him, list form. But you probably already know that.

• The Art section of John Lurie's strange & beautiful music blog gives us pleasure. We love the actor-saxophonist's watercolors with titles like Harry Didn't Want To Say Anything But The Appearance Of Jesus Was Ruining His Vacation and Self Portrait With Lump. As coincidence would have it, Lurie's blog is featured on Gentlemans Canine Society because of this.

• And of course the online version of Butt magazine, the thinking (gay) man's rag. Did we say thinking? We meant wanking. Sorry.

Famer

Lisantispread
Oh, yeah. People who live outside the Inland Empire might not have seen this. Our fellow LA blogger Mark Lisanti, the strapping 32-year-old who edits the wildly popular (and hilarious) Defamer blog, got a rare double-page spread in the Power Issue of West magazine in the Sunday LA Times. He's one of 100 "people who wield the most influence over Southern California." If we were not averse to wearing hats, we'd doff ours to him.

Rant: The Musical

I'm extremely suspicious of what's happening in this country. A few years ago, when I was living in New York , my friend Anne and I realized that if you walked down Prince Street in Soho, everyone acted like they were in a music video or in a movie montage. And why did everyone act like they were in a music video or a movie montage? Because everyone in America thinks they're interesting. And the truth is that most of us who spend our time walking Prince Street and buying $200 jeans and listening to Zero 7 and flipping our hair and talking about our feelings and paying someone $150 an hour to figure out what those feelings actually are, most of us aren't that interesting. I don't even think our feelings are worth $150 an hour, are they? Really? OK, maybe Meryl Streep's feelings are worth that. Anyone who did what she did in Devil Wears Prada deserves to pamper her self a little. But me? Am I really that complex? No. I am not. And who do I blame? Oprah. She started this. I go to her website and it's all this "Upgrade Your Life!" bullshit and "journaling" and SPIRIT! and SELF! and buy this $45 brownie tin / bubble bath kit BECAUSE I DESERVE THEM and I just wanna scream at myself GO DIG A DITCH BITCH! Yeah, that's right. I think whenever I start to disappear up my own ass, it's time to go dig a ditch. And as for Oprah? She can go to Auschwitz or save crystal meth heads or invite Lisa Ling on to talk about gangs (WTF does Lisa Ling know about gangs?) and give a Pontiac to every poor person in this country and I'll still blame her for this – for making me think I'm interesting. And wanna know what's worse? Technology is making it easier! Within 10 years, everyone in this country will have his or her own blog or MySpace or YouTube footage of themselves masturbating or blogging about their cat or filming their birthday or their favorite parsnip festival (there's gotta be more than one) and, really, who cares? Right? So, that's all I wanted to say. I feel better now. And I really want to thank you for hearing me out and now I'm going to go dig a ditch.

The Other Hilton

Hperez2

Perez Hilton at Perez Hilton.com has some words of advice for troubled Star Jones Reynolds: "Be careful, Starzilla," he says. "Don't turn to food for comfort. Big Gay Al is your partner and best girlfriend. Go shopping together. Go get manicures. But, don't go pig out, which is exactly what [you] did on Tuesday after [your] abrupt departure from the show." And the advice accompanies this photo of Star and Al pigging out.

Meanwhile, in a rare interview, the self-appointed Queen of All Media aka Mario Lavandeira practically eats the andPOP interviewer's microphone as he dishes to her in a Toronto hotel, where he was lodged during the MuchMusic Video Awards. His ride to the top of the blogpile, speeding ahead of the heavy traffic on the gossip interstate, has taken him only nine months, and now his latest venture is to conquer TV, he says. But he's not pursuing that goal through the usual channels, so to speak. "I wanted it to come about, so I had a concept for a show and I auditioned production companies," says he to her. "I met with people that did a bunch of reality shows, but I ended up going with this great production company called World of Wonder. They've done Show Biz Moms & Dads, The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Inside Deep Throat, Party Monster, so they do these cool, campy, queer, edgy, fun stuff."

What? Wait, that's us! Now we're intrigued. What'll the show be like? "It's a hybrid show, so it's got elements of some of my favorite other reality shows. It's a little bit Real World, a little bit Surreal Life, a little bit Punk'd all rolled into one."

Run Silent, Run Depp

Britboydeppart
Blogger BritBoyLA went to the premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest at Disneyland on Saturday and got loads of pics of the nameless and the named, including Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightly, James Cameron, and Jennifer Love Hewitt, but not Johnny Depp, who was three hours late and rushed along the red carpet hardly stopping for photos. So BritBoy had to make a quick sketch (above).


Of Interest

MadgeofintLkudrowofint-1
Madonna and Valerie Cherish aka Lisa Kudrow. For those of you still obsessed with the comeback girl who in fact will not be coming back, there is good news: She is in fact coming back. In a way. On August 1, HBO will be releasing The Comeback: The Complete Only Season on DVD. (Is that package title funnier than the show?) Although Valerie might think you don't need to see that, you actually really do.

And another thing you need to see is the just-launched blog from intermittent WOW Report contributor Ray Cochran, from whom we got the Madonna-Cherish thing above (and t/y for that, btw). Visit him frequently at his anecdotal The Bent Post. (Don't spread this around, but Cochran until recently had been on the shortlist – thisclose – of persons to take over the editorship of a v. popular blog that you probably visit everyday.)

Come Again?

Clip-Service-Logo-1

We're a fan of repetition, the novels and screenplays of Alain Robbe-Grillet, and that whole mirrors-within-mirrors way of looking at things, so when Spencer Sloan at Golden Fiddle explains how he YouTubed his cellphone video of the TV screen and it got shown on TV and he shot the screen showing the show he shot from the screen and put it on YouTube, the convolutions give us goosebumps. Although the resulting product is really not much of anything, the process that produced it is breathtaking.

So, just to refresh, we were watching a video we shot of The Daily 10, with our phone, on TV, (on The Daily 10) that we had emailed to ourselves, edited, and then uploaded to YouTube… Obviously, the next logical step was to record this new broadcast of our Daily 10 clip (on The Daily 10) of the The Daily 10 with our phone (duh) and then upload that clip to YouTube, again. So we did. And the circle of life continues. It’s your move The Daily Ten.

Blog Love

Ginnifermargene
Big Love's wife #3, Margene Heffman, has her own blog – which she totally would – over at the HBO site. It's likely that it's not written by actress Ginnifer Goodwin, but the comments come in from certifiably real folks. We think.

Margene I know how you can fix your scratch, Martha Stewart style! Find an exact color match in nail polish, paint it over the scratch, when it drys go over the edges of what you painted with nail polish remover, to make it look seamless, and then use a simple car wax when its dry. Voila! this will last until you can get it professionally done.

Room with a View

Acohenapt
Bravo blogstar Andrew Cohen was on The View last week, chatting about viral videos. There's something viral about Andy himself. Here he is standing in front of – and blocking the view of – a framed snapshot he took of the world's most famous star doing something outrageous with one of the world's most famous icons. I'll give you a clue: I once saw Mel Gibson pick his nose with one. But that is nothing compared to this. Unfortunately, Andrew wouldn't let me share the picture, so if you want to see it you are just going to have to worm his way into your affections and wrangle an invitation to stay in his fabulous wallpaper-ready apartment. I gotta warn you, tho', he inspects bags at the door.
