It Happened This Week-ish: American Idol is wrong, Mad Men, now in doll form, Lilo suing E*Trade, We lost that other Corey and more...


  • Lindsay Lohan is suing E*Trade for $100 million for defamation. Which is maybe the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Let's be honest here, she should probably be suing cocaine, alcohol, nightclubs and anyone who has ever seen her out in public since 2007.*




  • Ross is engaged for the 4th time. I reeeeaaaaally hope he doesn't say Rachel's name at the altar again. That would be awkward.

  • The world lost a Corey. Celebrity Rehab lost a future character. IMDB gained some pageviews and Netflix will be backordered on The Lost Boys for the next six months. RIP guy who wasn't in The Goonies (even though I really thought he was).




  • I dare you to read this article about Miley Cyrus and her new "love" Liam Hemsworth and not throw up in your mouth just a little. Don't want to take the challenge? Ok, I get it, here's a little nausea-inducing tidbit just for you: "'I think we're both deeper than normal people — what they think and how they feel,' shares Miley." I always knew that "Party in the USA" was actually written about the war on terror and the effect it has had on the youth of America in relation to their views of the world as a whole. Miley, you are so deep, it's like, crazy.

*Allegedly. DON'T SUE ME LINDSAY.

  • Plan: 1. Buy the Don Draper doll 2. Find a doll that kinda sorta looks like me 3. Place them together in a Barbie dream house 4. Live vicariously through plastic figurines

  • I am not a hateful person, but American Idol, I think I may hate you. After a week of pretty solid performances mixed in with the worst two girls' performances that exist in my fairly crappy memory, you disappointed me beyond belief. BOTH those girls stayed, as if the voters decided it was more entertaining to hear two underage chicks who sound like tortured kittens sing covers of shitty pop songs more than people with, ya know, like talent and stuff. Screw you, American Idol voters, you're the worst.

  • As if reality television wasn't already a complete crock of BS this week, our favorite Tampa Designer, Ben Chmura got auf'ed on Project Runway Thursday night. Lesson we can all learn from this: Don't put fake shark teeth on a suit....or anything....ever. Seriously, ever. (We heart you Ben and we will miss you on our televisions every week.)

After the jump, Lilo is suing all the wrong people, a very Corey farewell, Miley gets deep and more....
