  • Nothing happened in the entertainment world this weekend. Nothing. So to lead off I give you Gawker’s excellent screencaps of the Oprah-James Frey confrontation from the end of last week. The Oprah is NOT PLEASED. [Gawker]
  • Oscar nominations will be announced tomorrow morning. Set your alarm early to see a caffeine-addled Mira Sorvino stumble through the names at 5:30am PST while her father weeps uncontrollably in the background. [Oscars.org]
  • Vince Vaughn has all but moved in with Jennifer Aniston, who apparently did not handle the news of Angelina Jolie’s pregnancy very well. Oh LADY, desperation cohabitation is not hot. [MSN]
  • And Crash upset Brokeback Mountain for Best Ensemble Cast, the top award at the SAG Awards. At the after party, an enraged, boa-clad Steven Cojocaru attempted to mount Don Cheadle in retaliation but luckily was restrained by the ever-robust Kathleen Turner. [BBC]

    Speaking of the SAG awards….a big CONGRATS to my man Kiefer on winning outstanding performance by a male actor in a drama series. WOO-HOO!!!

    Also, if you haven’t seen Crash, I would highly recommend it. Great twists and turns. Makes you face your own prejudices head on as you find yourself laughing at stuff that you immediately feel self-conscious for laughing at in the first place. Great movie!

    Granted, Gawker did an excellent job of recapping the Oprah’s James Frey show, but I still think it could use a TVGasm commentary as well. The way Frey sat there like a whiny chump the entire time was classic. I agree with the view that he will soon be back on drugs if he isn’t already. Being proclaimed worthless by Oprah, Joel Stein, Maureen Dowd, Richard Cohen, Frank Rich, and a couple of other random people would be enough to drive me back to drugs.
