The Spirit of Giving

Defamer's Week in Review: We gave, WALL-E healed, Robert Pattinson chopped, and Zac Efron's fruity balls saved Christmas. Reminisce with us after the jump, and have a great weekend!
· Our season was rich with holiday bounties: Fruity Efron. Half-dressed, all-smashed Anna Nicole family Christmases. Mary-Kate Olsen's discount shopping tips. And, for the culturewatcher who has everything, Defamer Claus's indispensable last-minute gift guide.
· SAG blinked.
· Jeremy Piven SushiGate continued this week as audiences and castmates alike revolted against the star's suspicious Broadway exit. And just in case his mercury-poisoning excuse is legit, the makers of that toxic WALL-E bento box have just the remedy.
· Elisabeth Hasselbeck needed a full year to accomplish the kind of View notoriety that Andy Dick achieved in one musical segment.
· Fill in the blank: Jennifer Aniston has had more baby food slathered on her than _______.
· If Scarlett Johansson's efforts at Kleenex philanthropy are too rich and/or intimate for your blood, try out Michael Bay's cheaper, awesomer variation on charity.
· The existence of a werewolf-chic drama named Bitches could only distract us so long from the shock of Robert Pattinson cutting his hair.
· The bad news: You won't be seeing a new Narnia film any time soon. The good news: You can always check out Howard the Duck free on Hulu. Or maybe it's good news, bad news. We can no longer be sure.
· Sorry, Kate Winslet, but frankly, The Reader is not the film you should be defending against rape charges right about now.
· Matthew McConaughey's advice for those viewers critically ill from overexposure to his romantic comedies? Just keep livin', of course.
