Celebrity Buzz Tom is the star of Pirate Radio (which is charming) and Robert Pattinson's BFF. He is also my official new internet boyfriend. Man bangs are back!
Movie Buzz Just doing my job as the resident Retro Heartthrob Editor. (This was obviously some sort of marketing scheme, but listen: when a crowd of Lloyd Doblers are roaming around New York, you don't ask questions. UPDATE: Now with video.)
Blair Waldorf sang with Weezer on Halloween for reasons passing understanding. I've been having a Rivers Renaissance of late, so I'm pretty jealous. Related: Fuck/Chuck/Marry—Rivers Cuomo, Spike Jonze, and Edward Norton? Please share your thoughts.
Celebrity Buzz Here's a nice young man who plays Anna Paquin's brother on True Blood. He is also in the habit of posing for GQ and other publications with his shirt off.
Celebrity Buzz It's hard to remember television/life/hope before Don Draper, but Jon Hamm has been knocking around Hollywood for a while, often in questionable hairstyles. Please enjoy this retrospective of everything we could possibly find of his former life (it was hard!), to tide you over until Sunday.
BWE has a bunch of photos of Jon Hamm on vacation. You will feel guilty for about 30 seconds for invading Jon's personal vacation space, and then you'll pass out. It is like Norman Rockwell learned about sex and then staged a photo shoot.
Celebrity Buzz Did you hear that Rashida Jones is dating Jon Favreau (the Obama speechwriter, not the puffy actor). She is! This after dating basically every other Thinking Woman's Crush in the greater Hollywood area. Seriously, please see below. I think the entire female internet would SWF her if possible.
It's like someone took all my hopes and dreams and bound them with a hot pink cover. Seriously, can the editor of this book please email me? I need a new friend.
Just a PSA! Jordan Catalano lives, faith restored, God Bless America etc.
Culture Buzz Happy Canada Day! Here is an entirely subjective list of the neatest individuals who hail from our neighbor to the north. (It turns out that any list I make turns out to be a collection of cute boys. Sorry/not sorry!)
Drummer Kurt Feldman captured this key moment when I turned around to blow my nose during the show in Toulouse, France. I'm like the Disaster Girl of indie rock shows.
Spock, Barack. Barack, Spock. I wish there were so many more pictures of this. But OMG! It's like a logical dreaminess convention!
Celebrity Buzz The dreamy pot dealer from Weeds is now having simulated sex on a live stage starring in the popular Broadway play, Spring Awakening. He’s not nerdy or subversive, but still manages to convincingly “come” of age in everything he does.
Momus’ collaborator/muse is a Glaswegian laptop artist named Joe Howe. He’s also the first to be featured in my new Cute Boy series. Dreamboat! Oh, his music is pretty cool, too.
Food Buzz Schoolboy cafe in Tokyo caters to female readers of the popular “boy-love” manga genre. Based on a 1970s cult comic about romance at a German school, at “Cafe Edelsteins,” young male waiters wear lipgloss and flirt with women customers pretending to be wealthy benefactors of the school. Edelstein is the first role play cafe to target “Fujoshi” as the female patrons which translates to “rotten girls”.
