Snoop Dogg's Doggfather Clothing Line: Canine Couture

cheeky monkey — Thu, 16 Nov 2006 12:04:42 -0500

What's not to love about Snoop Dogg? He's got great hair, loads of talent and he mixes a mean gin 'n juice. And now he'll dress your dog in the finest of furry friend fashions. Introducing Doggfather, Snoop Dee-Oh-Double-Gee's very own dog clothing line.

The brand, which is (shockingly) scheduled to launch at the same time as Snoop's barely-marketed new album "Tha Blue Carpet Treatment", will feature doggie-sized hoodies emblazoned with the Doggfather logo. It will also feature a (faux) fur jacket in a weirdly self-referential animal print. Then, of course, there will be the Snoop-designed dog toys and unspecified "accessories"... maybe a teeny tiny Cadillac Escalade or a bottle of hair/fur wax to give your dog's coat that Snoop Doggy smooth style?

Britney Spears Sex Tape: K-Fed's Nasty Divorce Ammunition

cheeky monkey — Tue, 14 Nov 2006 18:58:53 -0500

Just when you think Kevin Federline couldn't be any more vile than he already is, something like this surfaces in the news: He's got a sex tape and he's ready to sell it if he doesn't get what he wants in the divorce.

British gossip rag News of the World broke the story today, citing a rumored offer of $49.3 million that may convince Kevin to hand over the tape to a film company that apparently specializes in salacious amateur movies.

According to unidentifiable but widely believed sources, the tape is four hours long and features a variety of... how do you say?... physical manifestations of love. And a couple games of chess. No, seriously. I guess it was one of those erotic chess games, which makes a little bit of sense. But is anybody else shocked that Britney and Kevin would even know the rules for chess?

Eminem and Mariah Carey

The secret is out: Eminem and Mariah dated.

According to him, they were together for six or seven months. According to her, it wasn't dating because she was only "with him a total of four times". "With him"? Four times? If that's not dating, it's just kind of slutty. Given the choice, wouldn't she rather call it dating?

I believe Eminem's claim that there was really something there. Not because he's the most trustworthy character, but because it's such delicious gossip that I just want it to be true. Also because Mariah is a diva; divas lie all the time; therefore, Mariah is a liar.

Kevin Federline "Lose Control" lyrics: A window into the mind of a genius.

Kevin Federline is releasing an album at the end of the month. I know, I know... old news. But my interest in exactly what kind of musical masterpiece K-Fed would create was piqued when I came across an article about him in the latest People magazine.

The brief interview revealed Kevin's intelligent side with such humble and articulate statements as this review of his own performance (as your basic garden-variety urban delinquent) on CSI: "'I shocked myself. There were parts that I wish I would have done different, but there are parts that really took me, like, Wow, did I do that? I looked at myself and I was like, It looked good. It looked perfect.'"

Question: What are the Cheetah Girls?

cheeky monkey — Tue, 03 Oct 2006 11:10:07 -0400

Answer: The Next Big Thing in Girl Power.

Based on a 16-book series by Deborah Gregory, the Cheetah Girls have evolved through two feature films. The latest, aptly titled "The Cheetah Girls II", propelled the group to stardom, leading to an opportunity for a nation-wide tour.

The series of concerts, known as The Party's Just Begun Tour, has already started in earnest, drawing massive crowds at every venue thus far. Enthusiasm is slightly tempered by the absence of Raven Symone, former child star on "The Cosby Show".

However, other Disney notables are picking up the slack. Miley Cyrus, star of "Hannah Montana", is the opening act for several Cheetah Girls shows, while Vanessa Hudgens of "High School Musical" is scheduled to open for the Cheetah Girls during the latter part of the tour.

Timberlake and Diaz: Paparazzi Run-In (or is it Run-Over?)

cheeky monkey — Wed, 20 Sep 2006 16:35:54 -0400

Oh, those crazy kids.

Now, I like Justin and Cam. They're a sweet couple, JT's got the hot new album, Cameron was in my favorite movie My Best Friend's Wedding...

But this kind of behavior is too cheeky even for cheeky monkey.

The gossip: As the cuddling couple arrived at a party, they were ambushed by photogs. Apparently, they were just not in the mood to be photographed and... the details here are unclear, but basically... 1)Justin yelled at them to leave and charged toward them, 2)Cameron and surrounding interested parties joined the protest, 3)paparazzi got into their car, 4)car drove toward Cameron.

The World is Shocked: Paris Hilton Pulls a Milli Vanilli

cheeky monkey — Fri, 15 Sep 2006 10:25:03 -0400

(My apologies for two Paris Hilton posts in a row.)

Since Paris released that catchy little "Stars are Blind" song and actually made it to the Top 40, I've been waiting for the announcement that she's going on tour. A Paris Hilton concert tour-- can you imagine? It would sell out every seat with just the paparazzi and the bloggers alone. But there's not even a little bit of buzz about her performing live. She hasn't even done the Good Morning America thing like Justin, Beyonce and Christina. I began to wonder why...

Then, this morning, my suspicion was confirmed by local morning radio hosts Michael Maze and Chaz Kelly of KC101: Paris Hilton isn't actually singing the songs on her new album.

Travis Barker and Paris Hilton? Really?

cheeky monkey — Wed, 13 Sep 2006 16:54:23 -0400

Not a month after announcing his divorce, "Meet the Barkers" star Travis (formerly of Blink-182) went out of his way to make an a** of himself by full-on making out with none other than Stars are Blind singer and celebutante Paris Hilton at club Butter in NYC.

Clearly, there were paparazzi everywhere, and obviously they snapped a photo of the tattooed bad boy and the hotel heiress.

Isn't it romantic?

Barker's surprisingly classy wife said in an interview about her husband's late-night public carousing, "When I first heard of the situation I felt betrayed, but … I've decided not to exacerbate the situation by commenting on each new aspect of Travis Barker's personal life."

Britney Spears and K-Fed Have a Boy.

That's right. There are now two people in the world who will grow up thinking that Kevin Federline is a role model. I propose a minute of silence to mourn the loss of character these two boys inevitably face. 30 seconds for Sean Preston, and 30 seconds for the other baby so new he doesn't even have a name yet.
