Tyra Banks has signed on for one final Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, to air in December on CBS. The show will broadcast from a specially constructed catwalk in front of Banks’s new Paris apartment, located at the corner of Rue de la Stupidité and l’Avenue des Breasts-Gigants. [E! online] ABC News has decided that the [...]

A leaked memo from the James Bond producers reveals that Hugh Jackman was passed over for the role because he was deemed “too fey.” Apparently people really do take notice when you wear shiny gold pants and make grand entrances on a camel. [Times of London] Crushingly, The Simple Life may not be so dead [...]

Finally catching up to the fact that America tired of Paris Hilton months—nay, years—ago, Fox has cancelled The Simple Life. They blamed it on a very busy winter schedule, claiming they were just trying to make more room for classier programming like Trading Spouses: Meet Your New Mommy. [E! online] Industry experts are scrambling to [...]

Somebody get me some ipecac and a trash can, because the Demi-Ashton wedding pictures are out. The cutest ones are the ones that show Bruce and Ashton taking off Demi’s garter together. [AP] From the world of nonshocking nonsurprises, Jude Law and Sienna Miller are officially over. Frankly, I can’t think of an actor whose [...]

Although nothing has been confirmed (so I may have to eat these words later), the new James Bond is allegedly Englishman Daniel Craig, who has been seen in Road to Perdition and Sylvia. He’s supposed to be a great actor, so if they could just fire the damn screenwriters and get some new ones, maybe [...]

Erstwhile singer Boy George, now going by the name “Obese Pederast George,” called police to his Manhattan apartment Friday to report that his home had been burglarized. But 1) the apartment had not been robbed, and 2) Man George was promptly arrested for having a bag of nose candy lying in plain sight. Incidentally, Rosie [...]

After the sssssssstunning success of the live Will & Grace premiere, NBC plants itself firmly in the Alan Alda Overexposure Zone by planning a live West Wing on November 6. There will again be two different airings for the east and west coasts, but in a big middle finger to the red states, no special [...]

Sorry to interrupt, but I just wanted to take a moment to congratulate our old friend Jerri Blank on her Supreme Court nomination. Love that eyeliner Jer.

So, those 59th annual Tony Awards. Nothing like a chance to see Hugh Jackman and other leggy drag queens in a variety of “liberal” situations. I confess that I quasi-missed the first few minutes of the show because I was too busy doing an inventory of all my illegally obtained pharmaceuticals—next time I’ll have Lindsay [...]

By m_ruv and B-Side FINALLY. After a red wine-, Xanax-, and whippets-induced delay of which only Margot Kidder or Tom Sizemore could be proud, TVgasm presents minute-by-minute Academy Awards coverage—a Herculean (or perhaps Hecheian) bi-coastal effort brought to you by TVgasm’s Los Angeles and New York offices in tandem.

As we all know, honest, unbiased reporting is rare in the American media these days. Fortunately, now we have Fox News to show us the way with its “Fair and Balanced” approach. A godsend! The results are astonishing! Exhibit A:   10/30/04   Fox News poll: Bush up by 2%   Fox News headline: FOX POLL: BUSH UP [...]

Ah yes, early June. Time for the gayest night on national television—not the Queer as Folk season finale, not the Cher guest spot on Will & Grace, but the 58th annual Tony Awards—the night when CBS tries to make middle America warm to a bunch of old, dried-out Manhattan theater queens.
