The Green Room Blog Created this handy image rounding up all of the rumored features of the next iPhone. Missing: microwave emitter that directly stimulates the pleasure centers of your brain. :(
Celebrity Buzz Somebody started a Twitter rumor that Patrick Swayze had died. But it's not true! According to his publicist, he is alive. This concludes today's edition of Celebrity Death Rumors Debunked.
Celebrity Buzz The two craziest wash-ups in Hollywood may be dating. It's only a rumor, but it feels like spiritual truth. 80s icon + 90s icon = 2K9 magic. Maybe Courtney will get Mickey to start blogging.
Movie Buzz The latest completely 100% unconfirmed Batman 3 rumor is that Eddie Murphy, Movie-Killer, will play The Riddler. This follows reports that Johnny Depp was cast to play the same role. There are also whispers that Christopher Nolan won't direct, that either Cher or Rachel Weisz are playing Catwoman, that Philip Seymour Hoffman will be the Penguin, and that Shia LeBeouf will play Robin? So in conclusion: nobody knows what's happening and none of these rumors are true. Keep your panties on, everyone, the next Batman might still be good.

Rumor has it Apple is on the verge of an end-of-year push that would start by finally offering unprotected iTunes Store music from all major labels and would continue with a special post-holiday campaign giving away music and videos to Europeans. It is not at all clear that this rumor has any validity, but still: exciting!
Celebrity Buzz Hey internet, guess who's not dead. Miley Cyrus! A hacker started a rumor that she was killed by a drunk driver by posting a video on the Miley and Mandy Show. But as Mandy said earlier today, “MILEY IS OK!!”.

Rumor of Katt Williams’ Death surge on Google. He was a no show for the BET Hip-Hop Awards which is probably the source of the rumor.
Celebrity Buzz Did SNL’s beloved breakout get plastic surgery? The blogosphere is abuzz, and fans are aghast that such a gifted comedian — who was, needless to say, pretty hot to begin with — would go under the knife like so many Hollywood bimbos. We can’t really tell, especially because she’s smiling wider the side-by-side comparison. But at the end of the day, her nose — real or fake — belongs to a woman well on her way to movie stardom (and the bank), so who are we to judge?
Celebrity Buzz The newest rumor regarding the Republican V.P. candidate: Her perfect lipliner is tattooed on. With only a totally unverified rumor emailed to Wonkette and a series of close-ups to go on, the Huffington Post investigates the rumor. Lip tattoos seem incredibly painful.
Steve Jobs isn’t dead. He swears. At today’s Apple event, Jobs made a point about his death rumors. Fiiiine. We’ll stop talking about it.
Business Buzz After the Chicago Tribune’s Web site accidentally ran a story from six years ago about United declaring bankruptcy, the airline’s stock dropped 99%. Oops. Hate to be that web editor.
Politics Buzz A blogger on Daily Kos accuses VP candidate Sarah Palin of faking a pregnancy so she could pretend her daughter’s baby was her own. The supporting evidence: Tons of photos of Palin looking very normal when she was supposedly seven months pregnant with Trig, plus her strange behavior around the birth. Even if this story is bull, will Palin have to release photos of little Trig crowning to shut down the rumor?
Tech Buzz Rumor has it that Apple will soon be releasing a MacBook Touch. Perhaps as early as October. The Apple rumor mill is running at full steam. While none of the sources will eschew the “rumor” label, they certainly aren’t holding back on details. Sources claim that the new product will function very similarly to the iPod Touch and iPhone, and will take the form of a tablet of sorts. Whether or not any of this is actually true seems less important than how awesome it all sounds, but since when was the truth important?…Don’t quote me on that.
Tech Buzz The Subway spokesman passed away yesterday (at least according to a large chunk of the internet). With the help of a remembrance site and a few Twitter posts from popular people, a lot of people believed Jared the Subway guy died. It’s been a while since a death rumor spread so far. Speaking of, has anyone seen Gary Coleman recently?
