Gwyneth Paltrow offers up advice for Joaquin Phoenix

Joaquin Phoenix was on his way to becoming a serious and highly respected actor when he pulled an about-face and quit acting to focus on a new career path: music. Specifically, rap. So far, his performances have been mediocre at best, leaving many questioning his artistic sincerity, not to mention his sanity.

David Beckham condoms: now with less lead and toxins!

I don't know if I can stop laughing for long enough to post this story - every time I look at this picture I start giggling. Condoms named after soccer legend (and total hottie) David Beckham are flying off the shelves in China after promising buyers that they'll score in the bedroom the way David does on the pitch.

Shenae Grimes is...

a) Channeling her inner George Hamilton

b) Slowly morphing in to an Oompa Loompa

c) A bit too heavy-handed with the spray tan

d) Filming a scene for 90210 in which she slowly morphs in to an Oompa Loompa

e) All of the above?

A few thoughts, re: the cover of Kelly Clarkson's new single

1. I don't remember Kelly's face ever being that...pointy. Or smooth. Come to think of it, I don't remember Kelly ever looking like that, period. Holy Photoshop, Batman.

2. This has soft-core porn written all over it.

3. Tongues aren't supposed to be that shiny, are they?

4. Now I want a gigantic sparkly heart-shaped sucker, too.

Fessin' up: I've always loved Joan Rivers. She's spunky and outspoken and yeah, a bit of a mess at times, but she pulls it off well. So what if she's got more plastic in her face than you'd find at a Tupperware party? Personality wins every time.
