Taylor Swift doesn’t feel cool but it’s okay if you do

Taylor Swift is getting ready to release her new album, 1989, so she’s doing a lot of promotion in the form of interviews on TV, the radio and in magazines. Her latest spread in Canada’s Fashion isn’t really all that spectacular, but she does reiterate how uncool she feels and says that she’s not threatened by other women who ARE cool. “Celebrities surround themselves with people who don’t know what they want and only have you to validate their lives—that’s not interesting to me. You should not be threatened by women who are pretty and charismatic and good at what they do…my girlfriends have shaped me more in the past year and a half than any other factor. I’ve never had more friends who I can trust and rely on, but there’s always a bit of your self-perception that’s frozen in junior high, when you trained yourself to not feel cool. You never really feel like you’re a part of the ‘in’ crowd, but growing up means that matters to you less and less every day.” I mean, look, Taylor is pedantic as hell sometimes, but I still like her. Young girls who look up to her and do read the positive shit she says will take that to heart a lot of times, and that’s what matters – even if us actual adults realize that she’s pretty full of shit.

Teresa Giudice is going to jail for 15 months

Teresa Giudice has been in hot water for a while now, ever since her and her husband Joe decided it would be a good idea to try and defraud the government for millions of dollars. Never a good idea, and now she’s paying the price. She’s been sentenced to 15 months in federal prison, while Joe received 41 months. She also has to pay a restitution of over $414k, as does he. Good luck with that. Of course, she thought she was going to get away with it and called the ruling “unexpected”. Here’s what her crisis manager (??) Wendy Feldman told US Weekly: “The sentence Judge Salas handed down today was not unexpected. The fact is that my client Teresa Giudice accepted a plea agreement that included a possible 27 months in Federal Prison.” “Sadly, our justice system has yet to find a balance between punishment and rehabilitation,” the statement continued. “It’s now going to be Teresa’s mission to make certain life changes and she will do so. Having said that, the lesson here as the judge also acknowledged, is to not let certain choices define one’s future.” LOL, okay. The saying “you do the crime, you do the time” has never been more applicable here. I understand that some people commit crimes out of desperation – like, say, someone stealing food to feed their family or something – but this is not one of those cases. This is a couple that was living the high life and wanted to stay there, so they thought they could cheat the system. Now they pay the price – as will their children. That being said, apparently Joe doesn’t have to start his sentence until Teresa is finished hers, so that their four daughters can continue to live at home and not be too messed up by it all (too late!).

Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio will never be a “thing”

This might be the saddest bit of news you hear all week. Look, we all know the reason Leonardo DiCaprio just won’t settle down and that Kate Winslet tries to settle down but it never works is because they belong together! They’ve been attached at the hip since they met filming Titanic back in the ’90s and they obviously are totally in love, so what gives? Well, nothing, according to Kate. In fact, the reason they DO work so well is because it’s not at all sexual – they’re just best of friends. WAHHHHHH! From Marie Claire: “I think the reason that friendship works is because there was never any romantic thing,” Winslet said. “It’s so disappointing for people to hear that, because in the soap opera of the Kate and Leo story we fell in love at first sight and had a million snogs, but actually we never did. He always saw me as one of the boys. I’ve never really been a girly-girl.” HMPH. Do you believe it? I almost can’t – they’re just TOO perfect together. Obviously I’m being a bit facetious and somewhat tongue-in-cheek since I don’t know them and they obviously are just REALLY good friends with amazing chemistry, but COME ON! Leo & Kate are my OTP for life. Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Nick Jonas grabs his d*ck and it’s definitely NSFW

Nick Jonas already showed off his rock hard abs for the benefit of it… whoever it is that likes him/pays attention to him, but now he’s taken it one step further as more photos from his shoot with Flaunt are released. In the new photos, he gives us the ole razzle dazzle in the form of a peek of plumber’s butt, as well as grabbing his dick for the world to see in another set of photos. I’ll put these behind a cut, in case you’re at work. Nick tries to be sexy as he bunches up his bits. No thanks. And the real “artsy” shot: Crack kills, Nick. What do you think? Worth checking out, or totally tasteless and try-hard? Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher reveal their daughter’s name (and a picture?)

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher welcomed their first child together this week, a little girl who we now know is named… Wyatt Isabelle Kutcher. I didn’t think I’d like the name, and probably for a boy I wouldn’t, but I like traditionally male names for females and I think this is kind of cute. Ashton announced the name and the arrival of his daughter on his website, A+, along with lots of photos a bunch of babies, one of which is apparently theirs. I think it’s this one: Aww… cute, right? Already looks like Mila in the eyes, I think! Here are the others for you to decide: In any case, here’s what Ashton had to say: Mila and I would like to welcome Wyatt Isabelle Kutcher to the world.  May your life be filled with wonder, love, laughter, health, happiness, curiosity, and privacy. Can you guess which one is ours, or does it really matter? All babies are cute. Indeed.

Pink has a new music project called You+Me

Pink is an amazing musician who makes great music and I think we’ve all been waiting to see what she’ll do next. Well, it’s not what you’d expect. Alecia Moore (Pink’s real name) teamed up with Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green to form a group called You+Me. They’re about to release an album in a couple weeks’ time, and in advance, they’ve got a single called ‘Capsized’. I have to admit this is an entirely different sound than we’d expect from Pink, which is, I suppose, the point. I’m not really sure how I feel about it – if I’m not all that into it because I like the music Alecia puts out as Pink, or I’m just not into it in general, but this doesn’t do much for me. Pink’s voice is incredible, though. What do you think of ‘Capsized’? Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Adam Sandler is making four new movies for Netflix

I’m going to say something (else) that’s probably going to be really unpopular: Adam Sandler sucks. He’s not funny, his movies are awful, and the entertainment industry would march on just fine if he decided to retire tomorrow. I actively avoid anything he’s involved in (though obviously I have seen the “classics” like Happy Gilmore and Big Daddy and the like), so I have zero interest in the four new movies he’s making for Netflix. I guess if you can’t make bank in theatres, go to VOD? “?People love Adam’?s films on Netflix and often watch them again and again,” Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos said in a statement released online. “His appeal spans across viewers of all ages — everybody has a favorite movie, everyone has a favorite line — not just in the U.S. but all over the world.” “?When these fine people came to me with an offer to make four movies for them, I immediately said ‘yes’ for one reason and one reason only?,” Sandler said in a statement released by the company. “Netflix rhymes with Wet Chicks. Let the streaming begin!!!!?” Uh… Okay, I’ll just leave that one alone. Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Ariana Grande loves being compared to Mariah Carey

Ariana Grande is so full of shit, she could fertilize a ten acre farm. Anyone who interviews her not only can’t photograph her from anything but her left side, but there’s also a list of topics she won’t talk about, like her grandfather’s recent death and all those Mariah Carey comparisons. But hey, just because she throws diva tantrums and won’t let you talk about how she’s compared to Mariah doesn’t mean she doesn’t just totally love those comparisons!!!! From US Weekly: “Mariah has been a huge influence on me since I was a little girl,” the new Wat-Aah! water bottle spokeswoman exclusively tells Us Weekly. “I’ve even done a cover of one of her songs. I don’t think there are any negatives to being compared to one of the greatest vocalists of all time. It’s honestly a great honor.” Nope, sorry, not buying it. Obviously you wouldn’t want the comparison to take over your career or what you’re trying to do now, but you wouldn’t outlaw it as an interview question if you were so down-to-earth and loving it. You would confront the question and say that you’re honoured, but you also want to follow your own artistic path and hope that you can grow beyond that. Let’s all just be real with each other for five seconds – Ariana Grande is no Mariah Carey and never will be. Yeah, she can sing, but she wastes it on shitty collaborations and can’t stand on her own. Seriously, the solo songs on her album are a total disaster. Mariah was solo 100% and killed it every single time. In fact, her rare duets were some of the worst songs she did (not you, ‘One Sweet Day’ – never you), so she can just sit down now.
