@QuakerOates: She certainly wasn't in it for the love. Check out the interviews posted to TMZ. Her "fond memories" of Gary consist of going on shopping sprees in Vegas and him buying her a car.

@RandomReformed: It does seem a little weird, but I also don't anything about her medical situation, so I try not to pass judgment.

@SheelaNaGig: I think "like Muhammad Ali" she means brain dead. No, Ali is not brain dead, but it's obvious Shannon Price is not a contender for the Most With-It Person Award, so there you go.

@bitingfairy: The woman is doing her damnedest right now to come off as a selfish fucking asshole monster. She's not even pretending like she wasn't in it for the money. Shit, even Anna Nicole Smith wore black for awhile.

Looks like Too Many Belts Syndrome has struck again.

Simple. Ke$ha has received far more promotion than Janelle Monae.

@ObservantUnderachiever: *shrug* 30 Days was shockingly good, much better than Super-Size Me, which just felt like a freak show. However, I'd rather watch Meet The Spartans than Spurlock's smirky, self-important Osama bin Laden movie.

Jacobs is sort of like Morgan Spurlock, in that he struck gold with a moderately clever gimmick ("watch as I do [insert "wacky" activity or lifestyle] for X amount of time") that he's now going to spend the rest of his career beating into the ground. He came off as smug and irritating in his "I read the entire…

Boy, that is one attention-grabby headline!

@coloredmaps: And what no one ever mentions is that Kelly Clarkson would have been famous even without the show. AI always acted like they had plucked her from waitressing obscurity, but the reality is that she had been offered a full ride to Berklee and was entertaining something like three offers from various…

@Clementine Tangerine: Agreed on all counts (except for maybe the part about banging Michael Pollan).

I know, honey, I'm underwhelmed too.

I'm pretty sure an art history professor mine said this years ago. A common name for the plant is "Devil's trumpet." And what is the devilish-looking satyr on the right doing? Blowing a trumpet in Mars' ear.

@julsinsane: It's also possible that what appears to us to be a tattoo is actually discoloration from her porphyria.

Justin Bieber has been famous for, what, like two days? I get that he's a little kid and everything, but I feel like you should wait till you've been around at least a couple years before you can start pulling diva shit.

@funchefchick: It's the absurd inappropriateness of it all that's funny, not the dead animal aspect. Come on, people, lighten up.

I get why people are hating on Edelstein, but I also get what he's trying to say. SATC is a fantasy; the idea is that women identify with these glamorous characters. So it's kind of important that they at least look pretty, right? I'm not saying that the actresses are ugly, and neither is he ("leatheriness"…

Yes, most of us have lost pets. It's sad. But this? This is hilarious.

Every attempt this woman has made at being a "real" celebrity has failed miserably and/or hilariously. Lady, I think it's time to give up the dream and start studying for your real estate license or something.

So basically, the gossip rags are a mass-market form of fanfic/slashfic. I had sort of guessed that.
