The rumors are circulating: baseballer Ryan Zimmerman, 27, and Heather Downen, 27, have been together for a year and a half, and he surprised her with a first-class flight to Italy this weekend. Is the time ripe for this blonde beauty from Northern Virginia to come back with a ring from one of DC's most sought-after bachelors? More»

I've been having a recurring nightmare about a pale, zombie-like creature that threatens to eat my brains if I don't write about his daughter's wedding. For the longest time, I chalked it up to bad shellfish, or maybe anxiety about the upcoming election. Thanks to a hilariously vapid and fawning profile of Petra Ecclestone in The Telegraph, I realize the truth. More»

via la.guesofaguest.com: With many Hamptonites left without power or cable, many of us missed out on some good (and by good we mean bad) television over the weekend -- the first being the VMA's and the second being "The Jersey Shore." But our good friends in LA are keeping us updated with some golden quotes from the latest episode. MORE>>

A legally brain-dead guidette teen could be hanging upside-down in a spray-tan chamber for up to a half hour and not miss any plot development on "Jersey Shore." So, as we dig once again through the best quotes from last week's episode, here's all you need to know: Deena hooked up with a girl, and Ronnie is a bloated angry monster. More»

If last night's Republican Candidate Debate in Iowa proved anything, it's that one's understanding of a complicated situation doesn't even have to be remotely accurate, as long as enough other idiots believe the world works the same way you do. With that in mind, we turn our eyes to MTV's "Jersey Shore," where we have our weekly check-in on eight very, very special young people and their trip to a faraway land that might be scary or off-putting, if only they possessed even the minuscule spark of consciousness required to know they were no longer in New Jersey.

As human beings, we have a lot invested in the idea that our modern existence is more civilized than what has come before us. Although there are daily examples of death, violence, terror and the Tea Party to convince us that we have, in fact, most likely regressed overall, our most compelling example of our own dim humanity is never more present than in the continued adventures of the eight beloved, barely literate gel-trolls that make up the cast of "Jersey Shore." So in the interest of keeping humanity honest about itself, yes, I will be chronicling Season 4. Sorry to let you down, mom and dad. More»

If, like me, you're a verbal learner, here's a key phrase from Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's ongoing misconduct investigation: "The phrase 'bunga bunga' is said to refer to an after dinner sex game." Well, that clears it up! If, however, you're more of a visual person, you're in luck, because the first set of photos from Berlusconi's infamous bunga bunga parties is emerging on the internet!

That a social world exists outside of the confines of New York City is a hard concept to grapple with, but alas, it's true. Italy, for instance, has a busy social calendar of dinners, gallery openings, and of course, fashion, with its own set of Tinsleys and Olivia Palermos. (Though some of the more colorful characters who populate Page Six seem to be uniquely American constructs...) Here is a taste of what Italian High Society is like... More»

Today officially marks the first day of the 66th annual Venice Film Festival - the oldest film festival in the world - and what better way to celebrate than with pictures of Maria Grazia Cucinotta sitting on a giant horizontal mirror! The actress/writer/model is set to host the festival until its completion on September 12th and has undoubtedly been working on her tan in anticipation. More story and photos below... More»
