All Of Free World Hoping McCain Drops Dead After Election Day

Seth Abramovitch · 09/04/08 02:30PM

Well, if the McCain campaign lacked a little something called star power—and let's face it, the guy is about as fabulous as Mr. Magoo with hemorrhoids—then that gaping hole was filled by...wait, let's reword that. Um...drill, baby, drill? Ugh, nevermind.

Tiny UK Pop Star Lily Allen Totally Pregnant!

Joshua Stein · 12/19/07 10:20AM

The Juno effect continues this morning. Yesterday Britney Spears' younger sister Jamie-Lynn (aka "the classy one") announced her pregnancy. Today Lily Allen, the diminutive and frank UK pop sensation (AKA "Amy Winehouse minus the heroin") announced she too is pregnant. Her baby daddy is one half of the Chemical Brothers, Ed Simons.

Andre J, 'Muse,' Finally 'Makes It'

Joshua Stein · 11/26/07 11:00AM

In our line of work, we're used to seeing tall black bearded ladyboy hustlers with long legs, big smiles and a penchant for self-promotion. But even in this hurlyburly rough and tumble world of free booze, those stupid VIP bracelet things that are a bitch to remove and burly doormen, Andre J stood out. His smile was the most radiant, his legs the longest and his ability to sell himself unparalleled. The first time we saw him, he was on a corner in Soho. New York's Amy LaRocca was all up in his shit. That led to his appearance in the Look Book, then the Look Book book. But the last time we saw him, he was working the door at some Save Darfur benefit Lydia Hearst threw and also skipped. Imagine our pleasure when we saw his face in the Sunday Styles and we learned he had made it. It was indescribable!
