I revisited Titanic recently and was skeptical it would live up to my memories. NOPE. I cried like a baby and watched it again.

A friend of mine works in a really fancy restaurant and apparently all celebrities eat for free, in exchange for having the restaurant appear in the gossip pages. Apparently the only person who's refused to accept a free meal and paid their tab is Pat Benatar, even though her star has fallen quite a bit compared to…

Yeah fucking right. This whole "high art" persona is just another stunt to cultivate her public image. Look at her collaborators over the years - Beyonce, Elton John, Alexander McQueen. Great artists, but their fame outshone hers at the time of their collaborations, and there doesn't really seem to be any others since…

One of my favorite gossip tidbits I've heard about Gaga is that she used to highlight a Warhol coffee table book as a "guide" for how to cultivate her image. Which makes this happening even funnier:

Well, at least you're honest about being an asshole.

Yeah, your flippancy is coming across as pretty insensitive.

Yeah, I can't really blame her for not wanting to be part of the family.

It implies that vaginas only belong to women.

Man, I want to put this on a bumper sticker.

One of my throwaway usernames is "rapandcountry", after the old Myspace trope.

She also once said that we're over racism so there's no need for the NAACP Awards, so there's that.

Man, that person turned out to really show her face. You're spot on. There are a lot of white people who only give a shit about racism so they can get brownie points from other liberal whites. Rarely do they genuinely care about racial issues.

I work in the sex toy industry, and weirdly enough, there was a lot of controversy about this dong re: transparency and safety of materials. There were also plans for a James Deen signature line for paddles, cuffs, etc., but I think that got scrapped, because what the sex toy world really needs is a shitty flogger…

Of course he does!

Bite your tongue!

It helps to imagine that Jezebel is just Jane as a blog.

Oh man. Nothing incites a shitshow like reminding white "liberals" that they are also responsible and guilty of casual racism. I totally support this comment, as we unfortunately need to be constantly reminded.

Holy shit. The early 1900s really are back!

That still probably wouldn't get as many page views as the religious articles. I'm no fan of the Vatican, but I find sanctimonious Dawkins-level atheism very tired.

Gawker writers are paid in correlation to their page views (or at least they used to be) That tends to explain a lot of headlines that are posted around the Gawker network.
