MUST SEE: McCain disses Letterman, gets grilled in return
Late addition to Celebrity Soup!
This Youtube video is footage of the Letterman show that will air later this evening (Wednesday). John McCain was supposed to appear, but canceled at the last minute, only to show up on CBS Evening News at the exact same time. Letterman was not happy. This is awesome viewing! Note that Youtube may be doing routine maintenance early this evening.
Letterman vs. McCain
Drew loves the Gossip Girl men
Is there any starlet in Hollywood who has dated more guys than Drew Barrymore? I don’t think so. A few months ago she was dating “Mac Guy” Justin Long, and eventually broke his heart. Long rebounded to Kristen Dunst, who has supposedly just broken off their short romance, leaving Justin brokenhearted yet again. But what is up with Drew lately? She is rumored to be in a not-so-serious relationship with Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford, who is only 23 (Drew is 33).
Okay, that’s not so bad. But now there are reports that Drew was not only spotted with Crawford, but with Crawford’s co-star Ed Westwick. The two were spotted "in a full-on make-out session" at a NYC concert for alt-rockers Kings of Leon last night. Westwick is 21. This chick likes her boy toys, and she likes them in pairs! I know what Perez Hilton would call her, but I won’t resort to name-calling. We’ll just say that Drew likes to have her fun with a few Boys On The Side.

Best choice of dance song on DWTS history
Oh, this was gonna be good. This was gonna be really good. It had the potential for the best dance to ever hit the Dancing With The Stars stage. Nobody was better suited for a song like this. But then Kimmie K decided to play it shy for her dance to Sir-Mix-a-Lot’s Baby Got Back. So I must ask: why would she not do what she could to “shake what her mama gave her” in a song that was clearly meant for her ass(ets)? It was like watching a Harold and Kumar movie without any drug use or a Neil Patrick Harris cameo. Weird -and a frustrating letdown. If you missed it, here it is:
Kim K got back, but didn't use it
Quote of the day from singer Pink: “I like penis”
Doesn’t that say it all? Responding to persistent rumors that she is gay, pop star Pink says that although she has “experimented”, she prefers men. Pink also airs out her disdain for VP nominee Sarah Palin. Great stuff here - take a listen!
Pink speaks her mind
Clay Aiken comes out
Good for you, Clay. We support you. Now tell us something we didn’t already know.
Clay states the obvious
Ellen gets political!
Ever since getting her own talk show, Ellen DeGeneres has been toning down her routines to be heavy on the “nice” side. It’s rare that she gets political or speaks her mind on controversial subjects. So it’s nice to see Ellen stand up for her right to be in a loving marriage, regardless of her partner’s gender. She always conveys her points so well, and is very smart about her use of words.
She addresses California’s Proposition 8 on her blog, and describes it like this:
The wording of Prop 8 is tricky. It’s like if someone asked you, “You don’t want dessert, right?” But you do want dessert so you say, “Yes,” which really means you don’t want dessert. And if you say, “No,” which means you do want dessert -- it sounds like you don’t. Either way, you don’t get what you want. See -- confusing. Just like Prop. 8.
Ellen rocks!
Ellen tries to clear the confusion
Someone get her a sandwich. Stat!
Gossip Girl’s Taylor Momsen was photographed at a Metropolitan Opera Gala on Monday night in NYC, and is looking a tad on the thin side. When will young girls realize that if they’re super thin like this, it makes them look decades older? The Olsen twins are prime examples of this. Here Momsen looks like she’s 15 going on 40. Awful.
This thin is NOT in
Best life imitating art story of the week
I’ve just heard that the real Ari Gold (Ari Emanuel) has signed the fictitious Vinnie Chase (Adrian Grenier) as his new client. Adrian Grenier will now be represented by Emanuel’s talent agency, Endeavor. Does the real Ari think that Adrian Grenier has a big career ahead of him outside of Entourage? If so, he’s seeing something I don’t. Grenier has yet to prove himself as an actor, and so far I’m thinking this isn’t a good move. Time will tell.
