Dating Rumor of the Day: Carrie Underwood and Michael Phelps
It seems evident at this point that Stephanie Rice is not dating Michael Phelps.
But Carrie Underwood might be!!!
Reportedly, the American Idol champion has referred to the Olympic icon as “cute” and the pair is planning a “quiet first date” near Carrie’s home in Nashville, Tennessee.
According to sources, the swimmer texted the singer, remarking on plans for said first date: “I’m not so sure you’d want to see me eat! It might not make a great first impression.”
A friend of Underwood’s isn’t a fan of this possible couple The National Enquirer:
“Carrie needs someone who is going to stick by her. She was devastated when her relationship with Tony Romo broke. The last thing she needs is a relationship with another high-profile celebrity who’s going to end up loving and leaving her.”
Way to steretype all athletes, random anonymous source person!
Ali Lohan Thinks She’s a Supermodel
As you check out the following Ali Lohan picture on the cover of some magazine called Supermodels Unlimited, keep this in mind:
She’s 14 years old!
This publication claims Ali Lohan is “America’s New Sweetheart.” Do you agree?
Sarah Palin: Hottest Vice Presidential Nominee Ever!
Tough call, but she edges out Dick Cheney for that distinction. Barely.
Earlier today, John McCain named Sarah Palin, the little-known Governor of Alaska, as his Vice Presidential running mate in the 2008 election.
Who is Sarah Palin? Few outside Anchorage know. But we uncovered one interesting fact - she came in second in the 1984 Miss Alaska Pageant!
Here’s a photo of Palin now and then …
That’s right. The Thrilla from Wasilla (we just coined that) is an inspiration to many. Who knows, in 24 years, Tara Conner may get her chance to run for V.P.
Anyway, here are some more Sarah Palin pictures …
Demi Moore is sort of filthy to me right now.
Demi Moore now officially grosses me out. Her brother is apparently now talking about her humping while lactating. Some things should just be taboo, like all body parts of your sister. Period. This is Angelina Jolie all over again. Sorry to ruin your Friday.
The Sun says, He said: “We went out and Demi was dancing [...]
The Soup Rips Heidi Montag
Just when we thought every possible way of ridiculing Heidi Montagand her music video for “Overdosin‘” had been explored, The Soup’s Joel McHale proved us wrong yet again. Check out this disturbing, hilarious parody …
Michael Lohan gets one hour special.
Somewhere down the line, a struggling network decided that Michael Lohan is interesting. Of course, no one will tell us the Network, as I assume they will also be announcing that they are laying off half the company on the same day. Apparently he has a lot of dirt to spill on ex-wife, Dina. I [...]

Britney Spears Has a Fan in Pharrell Williams
It’s still a week early for the MTV Video Music Awards, but Britney Spears, who is up for three awards, is already garnering support.
Count one hip-hop heavyweight, producer Pharrell Williams, among her fans.
“She’s made her mark with her career,” Williams said at the Pepsi 500 party in Hollywood, which he hosted. “She’s super-talented. She’s an entertainer.”
Williams previously collaborated with Spears - who some consider to be the worst singer ever - on her hits “I’m a Slave 4 U” and “Boys.”
“It was cool, it was fun,” said Williams, who is currently working on new music with Common and Fall Out Boy, of working with Britney.
Besides video of the year, Spears’ nominations include best pop video and best female video. She has never won a MTV Video Music Award.
“I’m not sure [if she will win],” Williams said, though he added that “I don’t even know if it really matters whether she wins or not.”
Britney Spears is competing with the Jonas Brothers, Chris Brown, the Pussycat Dolls and the Ting Tings for music video of the year.
Her live MTV VMA performance of “Gimme More” last year was an epic disaster. This year, probably for the best, Spears is not scheduled to perform.
Happy Birthday, Michael Jackson and John McCain!
Apparently presidential hopeful John McCain shares a birthday with Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson! What does THAT say about his ability to lead?!
Just kidding. We won’t hold sharing August 29 as a of birth with the King of Crazy against John McCain, who turns 102 (give or take 30) today.
As for Michael Jackson, he officially reaches the half-century mark today after decades of pop hits, plastic surgeries and absurd news stories.
We’d recount some of them here, but we just don’t have that much server space. So here’s a brief photo tribute to the birthday boys instead …

Jessica Simpson Loves Tony Romo, Keely Shaye Smith Loves Her Curves and More!
We learned a lot about various celebrities this week.
Jessica Simpson doesn’t often tell people they’re the love of her life; Pierce Brosnan’s wife, Keely Shaye Smith, is proud of her full figure; and Jason Mesnick is just your basic, normal guy with a rabid reality TV fan base.
Here’s a look at who said what over the last few days…
Jessica Simpson [on Tony Romo]: I just told him today, ‘You’re the love of my life.’ I don’t really ever say that to anybody.
Jenna Jameson: Yes, I can confirm I’m pregnant. It’s still early, so I’m being cautious. I’m resting as much as possible. I’m so happy!
Keely Shaye Smith (pictured): I never shy away from colors or my curves. I never hide in baggy clothing.
Keely Shaye Smith is proud of her body. We admire her self-confidence. Do you?
Jason Mesnick: I am just the most regular guy you could ever come across and for this to be happening to me is unbelievable.
Lindsay Lohan [on Michael Phelps]: Tell him he’s f*cking amazing, and I want to meet him.
Spencer Pratt: I’m trying to live a more positive, holy life, but it takes work. It’s hard not sinning, you know?
