Just a quickie...

I know it's not technically reality TV, but I was looking over TIME's list of the 10 Most Awkward Moments of 2007 and this clip from The View is really something. I remember hearing about it shortly after it happened, but this 5 minute fight between Rosie and Elizabeth is a must-watch. What do you think? Should Rosie have just shut up? Is Elizabeth a crazy bitch?

Some Sunday Tidbits...

Not only is Jessica Sierra from American Idol in jail right now, but she is also getting ready to star on VH1's Celebrity Rehab or something. OH YEAH, she's pregnant, too.

Holly Madison turned 28 yesterday. Hef's Number One is my favorite, too. She's fierce.

This is pretty funny, actually. Bret Michael's show Rock Of Love's second season is coming soon, and three of the potential girlfriends are transexuals.

Katharine McPhee is in a movie! This is news to me... I probably won't see it, mostly because Rumer Willis is in it and I think she's the biggest joke on the planet.

I haven't heard any of the tracks yet, but Blake Lewis (runner-up on American Idol last season) has put out a CD. Read his interview with AmericanIdol.com! His album is at #32 on the Billboard Chart this week; last week it was at #10. He's so cute, too.

Yessss!! So You Think You Can Dance? auditions are beginning January 17! If you're a fierce dancer, please audition. This is one of my favorite shows of all time.

A Shot At Love: The Final Round was on recently, and it is a joke. It turns out that "Little Italy" himself, Dominico, is going to have his own show on MTV. It's called That's Amore. Typical. Spin-offs of dating shows have really become popular lately... Tila looks absolutely ridiculous on the show--a tiny gold dress and a new haircut. Dani is still a fierce firefighter. Bobby and Tila couldn't see one another for two months. AND Tila makes a big announcement:

I Love New York 2 Finale

Upon visiting a plantation in Jamaica with Buddha, New York exclaims, "This is the 21st century.  I don't need to be pickin' no cotton."  Then, after riding a horse across a river, her relief is expressed because, "it just felt so good to be back on earth...  Or land..."  Amazing.

I am just now watching the finale episode and so far it's knocking my socks off.  Is New York ever sober?  Has Taylor Made ever lived a day without visiting a tanning bed?  Is muscle-bound Buddha completely terrified of Sister Patterson?  No.  No.  Yes.

In the end, she chooses Taylor Made.  Buddha is not trustworthy enough for New York, and Sister P HATES him.  Taylor Made is a complete loser, but whatever.  I don't think they will last too long and I'm quite surprised that there aren't any headlines about them right now...  Oh well.

A Couple of Updates...

American Idol season two winner Ruben Studdard (I hoped I would never have to write about him) has been dropped by his record label. That sucks, you know? Maybe he will have to do some commercials in his home town like Melinda Doolittle did...

Also in Idol news, the ever-trashy Jessica Sierra has put out a sex tape! I won't be watching it, and I don't think Perez will be either...

Even more Idol news! Page Six is reporting that Fantasia is pregnant! She's had her understudy go on for her in The Color Purple on Broadway sooo many times lately; maybe it's because she's with child.

One more Idol tidbit. Simon Cowell has lost some weight apparently. He looks kind of good...??!!??

VH1 is bringing Bret Michaels back for another season of Rock Of Love. Personally, I don't really care because I don't know who he is and I have never watched an episode of that show before.

Heidi Montag is on the cover of USWeekly confirming that she and Spencer are NOT getting married. Apparently the ring wasn't her "dream ring" or something stupid like that. I mean, here's the thing--Heidi is never going to find someone more perfect for her than Spencer.

Tila Tequila picked the boy. That's dumb because she already has a boyfriend! She should have chosen Dani because she's cuter and would be more fun to add to her existing relationship. Do I smell a spin-off featuring Dani to come in 2008?

Project Runway quotes... (etc.)

I missed last week's episode because I was working, but I made it home in time to see tonight's Project Runway, and I'm glad I did.  The previews made it out to be much more dramatic than it really was; I mean, I thought Jack was like super sick or something.  Turns out he (just) has an infection that makes his upper lip look crazy.  It was sad to see him leave, though, because I think he was definitely one of the best designers on the show.  

As I was watching, I was trying to think of some good ways to summarize the show, and I decided that a collection of great quotes would be the best route to take tonight.  So here goes.

Tim Gunn: "...'cause I've made more bad decisions at 3 AM than I can list."
He's soooo funny slash gay sometimes.  Loves it.

Christian: "Don't these bitches know that I am way better than them?"
So unabashedly modest...  But completely amazing.  I love him.

Stephen: "Dear God, help me now."
In response to finding out he had to use a sick wedding dress in the challenge.

Christian: "It looks God-awful hideous."

Elisa: "Underneath this new body she has a new sexuality."
WTF???  She is too crazy.

Michael Kors: "...it's a little Shirley Mclaine when she played a hooker with a heart of gold."

Those were the best quotes of the night.  A few other observations:
*Stephen is a big nerd.  Too bad he went home...  He lives above one of my friends here in Chicago.
*Christian is amazing.  
*There's really no reason that they brought Chris back.  Sorry.


In other news, Bravo's new show Make Me A Supermodel premiers in January, hosted by Tyson Beckford and Nikki Taylor.  It could be amazing.  I'm hoping for the best...
