Fur-Clad Maggie Gyllenhaal Likes Her Man Friends With Fur, Too
If that is, indeed, a forest critter (or five) draped so divinely over Maggie Gyllenhaal’s hunched shoulders … well then, PETA, to each her own.

Maggie Gyllenhaal Wearing A Dead Animal
Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal was escorted by her baby’s daddy Peter Sarsgaard to the MoMa Film Benefit Gala honoring producer/screenwriter/director Baz Luhrmann. To accessorize a basic black dress, Maggie chose a dead animal… that is real fur, right? What the hell was she thinking? Maggie looks ridiculous: dead animal, blood red lipstick and terrible hair. Her bad taste in fashion seems to match her taste in man. Peter reminds me of a caveman, the type that goes hunting and then skins the animal to offer

Top indie star wants to be less liked
It’s crowded with 30-somethings in carefully rumpled hair, funky glasses, sleek laptops, expensive jeans and oh-so-cool graphic T-shirts. The flavor of the day seems to be smug. He ducks in for a cup to go, a blueberry muffin and a pound of coffee beans. "It’s too trendy in there for me," Sarsgaard says, emerging unrecognized with a laugh. Sarsgaard has a better place in mind for an interview, leaving behind the sort of over-caffeinated hipsters most likely to have reverentially

Chelsea’s undefeated home record comes to an end
“When I look at them I see a team that doesn’t accept they might lose – and that is why I feel it’s possible to go through the league season undefeated.” Not this season though. The really odd thing is that they looked more like equalising at the end of the first half than the second. Where was the bombardment? The record just seemed to slip quietly away. Scolari is definitely doing well on the sub-plot of making the Blues more popular than under Mourinho - British people always warm to a loser.

 Paula's people tell TMZ they do know who the woman is.

‘So You Think You Can Dance’ Winner Joshua Allen Wants to be a Singer
Turns out that Joshua Allen (the hip-hop dancer who won this season of So You Think You Can Dance) really dreams of being a singer. Why didn’t he audition for American Idol then? Allen told The Fresno Bee this week that his dream profession might be behind a microphone, as opposed to on the dance floor. “Overall, I want to be a recording artist. I want to be a singer,” Allen said. “I still want to push my dancing career. And I believe if you want to be a good dancer, you have to be well-rounded.

Chris Rock to Attend ‘Funeral’
Photo: Getty ImagesRock the Remake:Chris Rock is onboard to produce, star in, and co-write an urban adaptation of 2007 British comedy Death at a Funeral. It seems a little strange for a movie to be remade so soon after it was released, but given the inaccessibility of the original (it was British), it's probably safe to assume not many American's are aware of the Frank Oz–directed version. And since this one won't need subtitles, they might actually go see it. [Variety]Brett the Barbarian: Hollyw

Michelle Obama pledges to help working families and military families
Filed under: Money & work, In the newsThis should come as no surprise given that her husband ran on not only the Democratic but also the Working Families ticket, but Michelle Obama wants to help working families and military families. As part of her duties as First Lady, Michelle sees these two things at the top of her very big, very important to-do list. At least that is what she said she'd do in an article penned by the now-First Lady Elect in mid-October, 2008 for the U.S. News and World Report's Opi

Billy Corgan Prepares To Test That "1000 True Fans" Hypothesis By Alienating A Huge Chunk Of His Audience [Heel Turns]
A concert that ends with the performer trying to connect with this audience by wondering aloud, as they might, "Did I pay for this shit?" is probably a show that's beset with problems. So it was with The Smashing Pumpkins' show in New York City last night, Billy Corgan et al's first performance in the NYC metro area in nine (!) years, which ended with Corgan baiting the audience with that very taunt, according to Matthew Perpetua, who was in the United Palace audience last night.

As excitement grows in the Barack Obama camp, members of the Illinois senator's team are anxiously waiting to see what job they might get in an Obama administration if their man wins the White House race next week.
