If you've taken a gander at the weather forecast for this week, you're aware that Mama Nature (or global warming—either or) is doing big things for us and, as was the case a few weeks ago, has decided Los Angeles should be in the upper 70s and 80s in January. That means it's time to bust out the jorts like it's summer again and enjoy this beautiful mid-winter gift we're being given. More»

Mother nature is confused again and has decided it's appropriate for Los Angeles to be 80 degrees in January. Today's highs are actually in the neighborhood of 85° across the city. Sure, it's a sign the poles are melting away but I mean, come on... it feels awesome, plus I'm wearing my Tobias Fünke shorts today! To not appreciate this downright delightful weather in some capacity would be a crying shame. So, to make sure you make the most of the next couple of days of summer-like warmth, we bring you 8 Ways To Take Advantage of this Juneuary! More»

Sometimes an actor takes on a role or acting style so iconic that it becomes hard to separate him or her from the character. Sometimes, this works out, like when Nic Cage turns out to be an absolute lunatic in real life, but in the case of John Slattery from "Mad Men," assuming that his off-camera persona is also an overindulgent, silver-spoon dilettante with no taste for counter-culture might be a little presumptuous, especially after Emily caught him hanging in Silver Lake last night. Could the real John Slattery be– gasp– a hipster!?

After a nice long break, team GofG L.A. is back in business. I could've gone on some exciting adventures during my time off, but I was way too busy doing absolutely nothing and have a pretty spectacular tan to show for it. Don't be jealous. Much has happened since we last caught up with you, but most importantly, BEYONCÉ IS PREGNANT! This news has really rocked my world so I hope you all had a wonderful, lazy Labor Day weekend because we have lots to catch up on now!

The GofG L.A. team is taking a little end of summer siesta and won't be posting this week which means I'll be at the beach working on my tan if you need me. But don't worry, we'll be back in the office after Labor Day next week for your daily doses of parties, debauchery and all the other important issues we report to help get you through the day. In the meantime, check out GofG New York, Hamptons and D.C. We understand this break is going to be difficult for you but just be strong for us, okay? Anyway, I hear a lonely margarita on the rocks calling my name... Adiós amigos!

There are several ways to meet Justin Bieber, if you're so inclined. You could hang outside the Onesie store and wait for him to buy his next pair of grown-up pajamas. You could figure out where in WeHo the most fashionable lesbians go to get their hair cut. Or, if those options fail, you can simply hold an extravagant Malibu beach wedding, blast his music over the sound system, and then all you have to do is wait for Biebs and Selena Gomez to wander on in!

Have you stocked up on bottled water and batteries? Updated your Last Will and Testament? Mel Gibson-proofed your house? If the answer to any of these questions is "no," you'd better get it together, because come Friday night, Carmageddon is upon us, and in the words* of County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, "it is totally going to f*#% your s*#$ up."

But don't reach for the suicide pills just yet (keep them close just in case), because we're here to help. Presenting: the Guest of a Guest LA Carmageddon Survival Guide! More»

What does summer mean to you? Beach, travel, friends? How about the fact that you can order a cocktail, or ideally several cocktails, at any time of day and not feel judged? But unlike, say, domestic beer, there's something of a quality threshold. Good cocktails need good ingredients and skilled labor, and that's going to cost you. Summer never lasts forever, so don't waste your money on bad cocktails at bad bars. Instead, why don't you take our advice on the best summer drinks and bars you're sure to love? More»

Would you rather be caught on tape getting freaky with Paris Hilton, or get arrested for stalking her? Think about it for a minute before you answer; you can't get an STD from handcuffs. But either way, you have a role model from this weekend, as Paris was caught sucking face Thursday at the Roosevelt with The Hangover 2 director Todd Phillips, and was then photographed presiding over the arrest of her longtime stalker James Rainford outside her Malibu home yesterday. So the question stands: who would you rather be? More»
