Bless Sophia Bush for this open letter posted on her blog. She wrote the letter in response to a t-shirt released by Urban Outfitters last month. The baggy, hipster-cut shirt which bears the message “Eat Less” had been so roundly criticized that Urban Outfitters was forced to pull it off their website, but the shirt was still being sold in retail outlets when Bush wrote her letter.

As a 32-year old woman, I used to be a little disturbed by just how sexy I find young former Disney famer
Zac Efron. Not anymore. According to the New York Post, Efron and a couple of pals, including High School Musical alum Corbin Bleu, spent last Sunday evening at Flashdancers Gentlemen's Club on Broadway, where they blew $2,000 on vodka and lap dances. 

If this report is the real deal, then it definitely deserves a big, loud ewwww. However, as nasty as strip clubs are, learning that a young, squeaky-clean actor has attended one is not the worst thing I’ve ever heard. Worse things? Prostitute b-jobs (Hugh Grant—we’ll never forget), tawdry extramarital affairs (Jesse James, Tiger Woods—I’m looking at you), clothing partnerships with Kmart (Selena Gomez, why?).

Rest assured, there’s a clear upside to this story. Now that Zac has allegedly proven his willingness to objectify women, we’re free to give it right back. Guilt free! Let the perving begin…

Uttering ridiculous sentences is all part of the job when you’re representing Paris Hilton. Take this one from Hilton’s rep to the Daily Mail yesterday:  "The hat was not a communist hat, it's a military-style hat from a club.”

This comment came after the heiress was photographed in red military hat while either a.) dancing with an outstretched arm and scratching her face or b.) faking a mustache and brandishing a Heil Hitler. Judge for yourself here

Jon Furniss, WireImageJust in case you’ve had enough of summer celebrity weddings, here’s a little gem from Cameron Diaz, who thinks the whole “one love” idea is a total sham:

“True love finds you. It’s destiny, fate. There is someone out there you are meant to be loved by and you are meant to love but I think the big misconception in our society is that we're supposed to meet the one when we're 18 and we're supposed to get married to them and love them for the rest of our lives. Bulls**t…I think people get freaked out about getting married and spending 20 or 30 years sleeping with the same person but [if that’s the case] don’t do it. Have someone for five years and another person for five years. Life is long and lucky and yes, love might last forever, but you don’t.” (In Stylist magazine)

Although Lindsay Lohan watchers would be fair to assume that the party-hardy celebrity is an exclusive vodka drinker, TMZ reports that what she really wants right now is a tall glass of water. Unfortunately for LiLo, she arrived at L.A.’s Lynwood Correctional Facility a day too late to put in her order at the prison’s commissary, and will have to wait until next Tuesday for bottled aqua. For now, she’s left with only two choices: drink from the “nasty” sink in her cell, or go dry.

Oh, summer! My favourite social season never stops giving, generously doling out camping trips and cottages, BBQs, easy, breezy fashion and best of all: secret celebrity weddings!

Reps for Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr confirm that the pair were clandestinely wed last weekend. Why did they marry? Either they are desperately in love, as photos of the couple appear to support, or they want to serve as a gorgeous reminder that they are not like us. Either way, they’re staying mum on the wedding, which was reported by People yesterday.

Ladies, if you have experienced infidelities, a battered heart or a broken family, please remember that this situation is entirely your fault. What? You don’t think it is? You think relationships involve two people, their community, all sorts of intimate nuances and a host of outside factors that make them work—or alternatively, break down? Pshaw! Get yourself to the magazine rack, little Ms. Delusional, and let
US Weekly and Star set you straight. Marriages work (or don’t work) because of women. Feel like you’ve got the weight of the entire world on your shoulder? Good. You do.

Bristol

There’s no amount of moose meat burgers that could make up for having Sarah Palin as a mom, but Bristol Palin is trying her best. It seems the poor girl doesn’t know which way to turn: at once the most politicized face of teenage motherhood, she also supports her baby by giving paid abstinence talks to other girls. And now it seems she’s planning to take her cautionary tale (don’t let your mom in front of a camera!) to national television. At least, that what’s she told People magazine last week. Of course, she also told People that she and baby daddy Levi Johnston are still on a break. "We're not totally back together, but I'm not ruling it out…I don't want to get into what's in store for our future, because, who knows?"

I shuddered when I read about this interview with “a source close to” Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes at Britain’s Grazia magazine (via
contactmusic.com). According to the article, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are set to launch a reality TV show, to prove that their life is “normal”.

Marcel Thomas, FilmMagicKeeping life blurry has always been Courtney Love’s specialty, and that’s exactly what she’s done to the line between high fashion and low living. Contactmusic.com quotes the once-upon-a-grunge star saying she loves her Givenchy sandals so much she wears them to bed.
