Rihanna’s Battered Face!

TMZ obtained photos right after the starlet and “Umbrella” singer was beaten by singer Chris Brown. Notice the bruises on the left and right of her forehead, the busted lips, and scratches all over her face. On a positive note, Rihanna’s album sales skyrocketed. Chris Brown’s? Couldn’t even top the Top 200.

He’s Just Being Miley

Mr. Miley Cyrus, Justin Gaston, just had a photospread in VMAN Magazine. And what was the 20-year-old self-proclaimed virgin and “man of God” doing? Taking pictures half-naked, while groping his crotch (well, someone has to touch it, Miley obviously doesn’t!) In the article, Mr Miley says: “I LOVE TENNIS. I’VE BEEN TRYING TO GET MILEY TO PLAY WITH ME, BUT SHE WON’T.”

THE CRITIC: Gran Torino, Pink Panther 2, and Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

This movie is about sacrifice, and it’s so refreshing to watch a complex movie with such a simple plot. Clint Eastwood plays the character of the angry, racist veteran Walt Kowalski flawlessly. Walt loses his wife and is left all alone in a predominantly Asian/African-American neighborhood. Walt is extremely racist and sees all Asian people as the “savages” he fought in the Vietnam War. He is a kind man stuck in the body of a bitter veteran. The only person who can bring him outside of himself is his next door neighbor, Thao, who Walt calls “Toad.” The kindness of his neighbors and the horrible attitude of his own family help Walt to realize that holding onto unrealistic prejudice only poisons his own life. The way in which Walt transforms as a person through the film is truly inspiring. I definitely recommend this movie because aside from all the hype it’s a movie that will make you laugh, cry, become angry, and become hopeful all at once. Definitely SEE IT because Fandango.com users gave it a Must GO.

FASHION POLICE: Can It Get Any Worse Than White Pants?

Who decided that white pants are acceptable and/or good looking? Well, whoever that person is should basically fall in a puddle of dirty sewage…while wearing those God-forsaken white pants. There are three (count ‘em…one, two, THREE, that’s it) occasions in life when it is socially acceptable for a man to wear white pants. Those times are…

1. While getting day-drunk on a boat in Cape Cod.

2. 1969.

3. P. Diddy’s annual white party.

THE POP SHOP: Melrose Edition

It’s the end of a long week and all you need is an entire day to relieve that stress you’ve accumulated sucking up to your less-than-brown-nose-worthy boss. And what’s your relief? A completely fabulous day on Melrose, of course!

But what do you wear when you know that your entire day, including the early morning to dinnertime, will be spent without time to change?
Solution: the jacket. Los Angeles may be sun-soaked most of the time, but we all know that mornings and nights are chilly. Helmut Lang’s draped leather jacket is …
