Linguistic Frippery: Celebrity Cockney Rhyming Slang
Ever keen to marry the single-syllable, bite-sized world of celebrity gossip tabloids with the Shakespearean ideal of cunning linguistic wordplay, we decided to compile a compilation of completely cock-eyed and cleverly contemplated Cockney rhyming slang, as it relates to celebrities. Cockney rhyming slang, I hear you say? What might that be? For the non-Brits among you, Cockney rhyming slang, as defined by our dear old friend Wikipedia, "is a form of slang in which a word is replaced by another word or

Sharon Stone Wears Rats Paw for ‘Luck’
Sharon Stone was pictured at Elton John’s Oscar party, wearing a rats paw on her lapel. When asked about it, she said: “It’s for luck.” I thought it was rabbits' feet that were lucky? What's so lucky about rats? Apart from the fact that, come a nuclear end of the world, rats and cockroaches will be the only animals to survive. Maybe Sharon should wear a cockroach "for luck."

Sharon Stone, and a flash of that old Basic Instinct
Sharon Stone sails on the French Riviera, and manages to create some Hollywood style drama all in a single afternoon while on board fashion designer Roberto Cavalli's yacht in Cannes. The racy actress, clearly hasn't forgotten how to cause a stir, as despite her advancing years she pitched up braless, in a sheer white and grey slip of a dress, which concealed very little of her modesty.

Sharon Stone’s new boy toy
Sharon Stone’s current love interest is half her age — and that hasn’t stopped him from bragging about her to all of his friends. “I’ve started dating Sharon Stone, and she’s pretty good for 50,” Chase Dreyfous, 24, told his pals at a birthday party at Crown Bar on August 8 in LA. “Sharon called him and he showed the caller ID to everyone,” adds an insider.

Cruella de Stone Traps Another One!
Cruella de Stone has reportedly wrapped her venus fly vag around 24-year-old Chase Dreyfous. Earlier this week, InTouch (via SFGate) reported that Chase has been bragging to his friends that he's banging the cougar with a heart of Stone. I'm not completely sure, but methinks this is Chase out with Sharon last night. Couldn't she have nabbed a 24-year-old who doesn't look like a used car salesman masquerading as some Hollywood big shot. That suit screams Men's Wearhouse clearance sale. And if he's 24, I'm f

Britney's now in the furniture biz

Spies say Spears pere is in talks with Danish celebrity broker Claus Hjelmbak to "bring Danish accent pieces to the United States . . . Britney will be the face of the b

Feeling the burn: Sharon Stone reveals her startling red face
There's very little that makes Sharon Stone blush, so when the Basic Instinct star stepped out with a bright red face yesterday she certainly raised a few eye brows. The once radiant star, who turned 50 last month, looked ruddy faced and blotchy as she arrived at Los Angeles airport with her son in tow yesterday, leaving some wondering whether she'd been overzealous in her quest for a fresh-faced look.

Madonna and Sharon: Combined age 99 and still looking a million dollars
They're both age-defying, blonde bombshells with oversexed images. And last night, Madonna and Sharon Stone stood side by side on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival providing a perfect example of how to age gracefully. Dressed in black and low-key jewellery, the pop star and the actress lapped up the attention at the world première of the singer's Malawi AIDS orphans documentary I Am Because We Are. Madonna is approaching her 50th birthday in August, while Sharon already welcomed her sixth

Video: Sharon Stone says Chinese earthquake was karma
Sharon Stone is officially the dumbest bitch in Hollywood. While on the red carpet for a charity event in Cannes last Thursday, the actress was asked if she had heard about the recent earthquake in China and, well, she said this: “Of course I have. Well you know it was very interesting because at first I thought I’m not happy with the way the Chinese are treating the Tibetans because I don’t think anyone should be unkind to anyone else. And so I have very concerned about how to . . . think and what

Chinese Earthquake Victims Demand $1B From Sharon Stone
More than 1,000 Chinese earthquake victims and a New York lawyer are demanding a $1 billion payout from Sharon Stone — or maybe just an apology, the New York Post reports. The "Basic Instinct" star was recently served with legal papers announcing attorney Ming Hai's intention to sue her for harming Chinese people when she suggested the catastrophic quake last May was "karma" for the regime's occupation of Tibet.

Haven't we seen that pose before? Sharon Stone's Basic Instinct returns
It's more than 15 years since Sharon Stone set pulses racing in that Basic Instinct scene, but yesterday she proved the infamous move is still second nature. Thankfully the actress, who turned 50 last month, showed a hint more constraint than her former alter ego Catherine Tramell as she addressed the audience at the Sorbonne university in Paris yesterday.

LYNNE SPEARS. THE MOTHER OF THE YEAR
Oh Lynne Spears… I don’t know if stupidity runs in the Spears genes or if there is something in that yummy Louisiana water that makes this family the idiots that they are. Either way it makes for pretty entertaining US Magazine covers, to which I can’t really complain but instead, applaud the white trash, brain dead clan that is the Spears women. Lets talk about Mama Spears, remember she was all stoked to write a “parenting book” a couple months ago, until her precious Nickelodeon prodigy go
