But even SNL apologists conceded that last season was an exceptionally weak one. What are some steps Lorne Michaels and crew can take to avoid another lackluster year? More»

Last Friday Webster Hall brought together UK dubstep duo Nero and LA hero Gaslamp Killer for a night of face-melting music. Girls & Boys of the night let go of their inhibitions and exposed a much more revealing side of their personalities. A side that is fame-hungry; hungry for reality television stardom. More»

  • It seems Lindsay Lohan is off the hook temporarily and will not be going to jail when she lands on U.S. soil after all.  At least not right away since her people were able to rush over $10k, which is the requisite 10% of her $100,000 bail to secure the bond [TMZ]
  • Mee-ow! Google execs openly ripped Apple while giving presentations at the Google I/O developer conference this week, with their VP of engineering contrasting their open platform to a "Draconian future, a future where one man, one company, one device, one carrier would be our only choice" and then presented a 1984 poster.  Okay, that's a little dramatic...

The Times ran an article on the demise of The Plaza yesterday. Apparently, the fabled old hotel-turned-condo has become a shantytown, with some apartments selling for a mere $5 million. One man noted that New York's landmarks are all dying. Could an Avenue A candy shop and French fry dispensary stop the bleeding? More»

According to rumors, Bret Michaels, Cyndi Lauper, and Rod Blagovich are set to start filming the newest season of Celebrity Apprentice on Tuesday. The episodes will begin airing in the Spring of 2010. Bret Michaels and Cyndi Lauper (sort of?) make sense, but Rod? Don't most job apps ask if you've ever been arrested? Apparently, the ex-governor has been DYING to get on a reality show: he tried to be on "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here", but was denied travel permission. Cause, you know. He's still awaiting trial for corruption. No big.

'Um, yes,' I tried to say through a mouth full of chicken sandwich (hey, it had been a long day week).
