Lovelace vs. Lovelace

''We admit that the Snow White movie standoff brewing next year has gotten the lion's share of our attention, but we're happy to report that we have yet another film competition to track: The battle of the Linda Lovelace movies is back on! When last we checked in, Matthew Wilder had replaced Lindsay Lohan with Malin Akerman for his Lovelace biopic Inferno, while directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman were wooing Kate Hudson and James Franco for Lovelace, their own take on the famous porn star. The latter project appeared to fall by the wayside when Hudson became pregnant, but Olivia Wilde tells E! that she may assume the title role: "It would be a tremendous honor. It's such a cool role. She was a fascinating woman — with where she came from to Deep Throat to then working with Gloria Steinem and Nora Ephron." If Franco is still attached to play Lovelace's manager-husband Chuck Traynor, this version will have the other beat on cheekbones alone.''
-E!
I only have two words to say about this: MALIN AKERMAN, the woman is an amazing actress, and she has that round face that Linda had. Inferno all the way! (Although it would have been fun to see Lohan try to do this...)

AA + eBay

''By joining up with eBay, American Apparel will hopefully boost its Internet sales, which currently make up less than ten percent of the company's revenue. It's also good for eBay, supposedly, because they're trying to target the tech-savvy 18-to-25-year-old market, which makes up American Apparel's core demographic. Although American Apparel will have to pay a commission for all sales brokered through eBay's interface, they expect the deal to generate "several million dollars in sales within its first year." Which, needless to say, Dov Charney could really use. The partnership is tentatively scheduled to launch on September 1.''

Please, Change Or Stop

There's a million gay dating websites, but the one i'd say is the most popular in Montreal is http://www.gay411.com/.
(Grindr is an iphone app)
A thing that bugs me about that site, is that i've been on it off and on since 2003, and it's always the same people you see on there, and some of those people HAVE THE SAME PHOTOS as they did in 2003.
Listen Bitches! It ain't possible, you don't still look like that! Change! We all know you, we see you all the time, and that photo has been there for CENTURIES!
a guy told me on there today ''Why are you ignoring me?'' I responded ''Why are you stalking me? You've had the same photos for 8 years, and every 2 weeks you send me a message, STOP!''
thanks for letting me vent.

Pugh Does MAC

''This week Gareth Pugh is in town to enjoy the 100-degree stew that is the air outside and work with MAC on his makeup collection for the brand coming out in October. MAC hasn't done a designer collaboration since Rodarte (which was later sadly canceled), so Pugh's, which has been in the works for two years, is sure to be huge.''
