The Spitzer Sex Scandal
2008-03-11 15:30:00
There is so much to say about Elliot Spitzer , but I will bite my tongue and just let the man resign. I mean, he better. Soon. That's all I'll say about the latest scandal to rock a prominent politician. How I WILL address the seedy development though is to bring up David Letterman's take last night. Last night, David Letterman crafted his Top Ten list on The Late Show after shamed NY Governor Elliot Spitzer's latest scandal. I thought it was great. I posted the actual list below for your enjoyment:Top Ten Eliot Spitzer Excuses 10. Oh come on, like you were never involved in a prostitution ring 9. Hookers is fun 8. Just trying to help the economy 7. Have you ever been to Albany? 6. It's part of my new MTV prank show "Spitz'd" 5. Haven't been myself since Roy Schieder died 4. Uh, tainted beef? 3.

What Are You Wearing?

MISS TLC SAYS: Just when I thought I'd seen the weirdest hat ever on the train (see post from December 11th), I came across this beauty. I understand it can get pretty cold in NYC, but is it really necessary to put a squirrel on your head in order to keep warm??? I honestly looked up and thought Taylor Hicks had gotten on my train. (We have avoided showing the face of the accused fashion violator so as to spare her the embarrassment. We here at The Wonderful World of Miss TLC love to point out fashion violations, and odd happenings in NYC, but we aren't trying to put someone's face on blast. If someone happens to come to the site, and can tell that they know the person just from their back, or their feet, or their clothes, so be it, but I don't show faces here.)

I'm F*cking Ben Affleck
2008-02-29 18:36:00
In case you haven't seen it in full...MISS TLC SAYS: Jimmy's answer to Sarah was funny, and entirely surprising as to the amount of celebs he actually got to participate, but I think the shock factor of the first one was better. Plus, Sarah's song was a better, more catchy song. However, the scene with Jimmy and Ben moving closer and closer to each other's faces while singing is HILARIOUS. My mother told me she saw Jimmy admit in an interview somewhere that that particular scene took like 12 takes because they kept cracking up as they'd get close to each other.

I'm F*cking Matt Damon
2008-02-01 20:01:00
MISS TLC SAYS: I'm sure Andy Samberg's kicking himself in the ass that he didn't write this one for SNL. It's right up there with "Dick In A Box" and "Chronicles of Narnia" as funniest comedy music video of all time though. HILARIOUS. PS - In case you are not a Jimmy Kimmel fan, and do not know about the tongue-in-cheek joke here, Jimmy always would say "...and sorry to Matt Damon , we ran out of time" to end his shows, which I do think is pretty funny, so this was also Matt's "payback".

Heath Ledger: R.I.P.
2008-01-22 23:30:00
NEW YORK (CNN) -- Actor Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday of a possible drug overdose in a Lower Manhattan apartment, the New York Police Department said.The Academy Award nominated actor was 28."Pills were found in the vicinity of the bed," police spokesman Paul Browne told CNN."This is being looked at as a possible overdose, but that is not confirmed yet." Police later said the pills "appear to be over the counter" sleeping medication. Ledger was unresponsive when he was found by a housekeeper who had gone to wake him for an appointment with a masseuse in the Soho apartment, Browne said.He was declared dead at about 3:30 p.m., Browne said. In 2005, the actor played Ennis Del Mar in "Brokeback Mountain," about two cowboys who had a secret relationship.The role earned him the Oscar nomination.Ledger was born in Perth, Australia. He has a young daughter with actress Michelle Williams, his co-star in "Brokeback Mountain." # # #CNN Article MISS TLC SAYS: Another sad aspect of this in...

Adnan Ghalib "Sells" His Story To Entertainment Tonight
2008-01-22 19:50:00
Britney Spears' brief relationship with paparazzi Adnan Ghalib has come around to bite her in the ass. Surprise, surprise. Adnan was "dating" Brit for about two weeks before he was abruptly cut from her life this past weekend. And to the surprise of no one, apparently her creepy "manager/friend/sidekick" Sam Lufti (birth name: Osama Lufti) had something to do with it. Now I'm not going to argue the fact that Adnan probably NEVER had Britney's best interests in mind, but I doubt that Sam does either. Unfortunately, Britney is currently in a position where no one is around her for the right reasons. Dr. Phil, Sam, her aspiring pop star "cousin" Alli, and now Adnan; it's all for their own fame and gain. Britney needs her REAL family... no, not her 16-year old knocked up sister, her Mom, Dad, and brother. Well... I don't know about them either. Strike that. Girl needs a professional. No, not you Dr. Phil. A licensed professional. One that does not have a TV show, a boo...

IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT: The Tom Cruise Video
2008-01-16 23:37:00
MISS TLC SAYS: You know I always try to hook my peoples up. This video (surprise, surprise) keeps getting mysteriously taken down from YouTube as quickly as it goes up. Now I don't know about you, but I would NEVER claim to know everything about religion, or any particular religious sect. I consider myself to be religious, and I cherish my own faith, and the way I was brought up within it. However, I do agree with aspects of many other religions as well, and I would never try to shove my own beliefs down the throat of another. In this case, I just think it's QUITE suspect that Scientologists are sooooooooooo secretive about their "tech" (codeword for their Scientology policies, rules, mandates, procedures), and so fearful and disturbed when any of it "leaks" it. Just something to think about...PS - SP means a "Suppressive Person". Anyone that doesn?t like Scientology and/or criticizes Scientology.

What Are You Doing?

If you are an avid reader of The Wonderful World Of Miss TLC (and really, you should be... seriously... tell a friend... this site is where it's at), you know all about our recurring feature "What Are You Wearing?", where we publish camera phone pics taken of folx wearing odd, unusual or tacky clothing.Well today, we are posting a variation of that feature entitled "What Are You Doing?". Here goes...MISS TLC SAYS: As my mother and I were standing in front of a supermarket in Brooklyn, this man opened his trunk, and looked like he was about to put his groceries inside. Instead, he fussed around moving items for a couple moments...... and then climbed in.I'm not joking.(It turns out his wife was standing next to their shopping cart, and saw us staring at him with a confused look on our faces. She then proceeded to tell us that the "latch was broken" and that she "told him to get it fixed and take the key from the other car". Huh? But he opened the trunk with a key! I guess he...

Dec. 11, 2007 3:32pm by Jarett WieselmanQuiz show host Alex Trebek suffered a minor heart attack on Monday night, but is said to be in stable condition. The Jeopardy! host is being treated at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles with his wife, Jean, by his side. Trebek, who has hosted the game show since 1986, plans to resume taping in January, preventing people from wondering: Who is Alex's replacement?MISS TLC SAYS: Dayum! First, the writers are on strike, and now the host of "Jeopardy" is out for the count as well??? What will they take from TV-watchers next? The teleprompters for the morning news will blow? Either way, we hope for nothing but a speedy recovery for Alex. He's only 67 years young after all, so he's still got a lot of living to do.And for your enjoyment, I've posted a clip of Saturday Night Live's infamous "celebrity Jeopardy" clips starring Will Ferrell as Alex himself...

In Case You Haven't Seen It (The Sex & The City Movie Trailer)...

You can view the trailer here.And for those of you who are into instant gratification, you can view some screenshots below:MISS TLC SAYS: In case you were wondering, those shots occur in order during the trailer. Interestingly enough, there are several different wedding ensembles shown for Carrie. That could mean that the early reports are correct (that Carrie dreams about her wedding during the movie and so you can't know for sure what she will wear on that day AND if it will even happen for real during the course of this movie).

Love / Hate

We here @ The Wonderful World Of Miss TLC......LOVE how the legendary dessert spot Serendipity publicized their $25,000 sundae JUST last week... and were shut down by the health department this week for disgusting infractions. I'm not sure ANYONE will be dropping $25, much less $25,000 there for a while... HATE that Pop Tarts (and most other food aimed at children) feels the need to make breakfast into dessert. What happened to the plain blueberry ones w/o icing (those were my favorites)? I mean really, LOOK at these flavors currently in the supermarkets. S'mores??? Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough??? Oh, excuse me, the strawberry FROSTED ones (with sprinkles) are "low-fat". I took two pictures below... LOVE the movie "Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married?". I know it's been in the theaters a while now, but I just got to see it last week, and it did NOT disappoint in the least. This movie makes you laugh, cry, get angry, and get happy all within two hours. Tyler Perry really did his...

The line will be exclusively sold at Bloomingdale's, and May 2007 Playmate Shannon James appeared on the show to "reveal" the clothes to viewers ALL OVER (the tri-state area - lol). Now y'all know how I feel about Playboy, so I was CLEARLY thrilled for him with this one. You did a good job darlin!

Curb Your Enthusiasm's Leon
2007-11-14 17:27:00
From BestWeekEver.tv...Best Week Ever's take on this season of Curb Your Enthusiasm and the character Leon While I totally agree with Best Week Ever in their praise of Leon & the last few minutes of the Curb Your Enthusiasm final episode, I don't agree that this season was just so-so. I thought this season was one of the best since the first couple seasons of the Larry David unscripted sitcom aired. Honestly, there were SO many moments where I was literally cracking up this time around. Larry was smart in recognizing a plotline that could go many places during the course of the season, while still keeping viewers amused with his awkward interactions (with the family he took in from the hurricane). They should seriously have a spin-off called "Larry & The Blacks". Him & Loretta would be a great couple.Honestly, if you missed this season, go back and watch them all on HBO On Demand this weekend. You can thank me later.

In the wake of Michael Jackson's recent Ebony magazine spread......he made a public appearance at Jesse Jackson's 66th birthday party last week. Ok, so ever since he went into hiding after his child molestation trial, there have been rumors that Mike was staging a "comeback". DJ Whoo Kid supposedly spoke to him about collaborating and doing some G-Unit stuff last year, and there have also been reports that he's accepted tracks from all the production bigwigs including Timbaland, Kanye, and will.i.am. More recently there have been leaked tracks floating around the 'net, and I must say that I wasn't impressed with the ones I heard (except for one, "Bigger Man"), however, I couldn't picture them being produced by any of the aforementioned heavyhitters. So they could've been old unused album tracks, album filler, or even outtakes. Either way, I'm wondering what the general public really thinks. Michael is obviously a legend. He is obviously talented. Personally, I'm a HU...

Now I don't know about you but I feel that there was a DEFINITE need for a service like this. There have been video rental services for years, but as far as books go, you only have the library. Now I'm not knocking the library, but I know that sometimes the hours aren't set up well enough for those who work late to get over there, browse, take books out, AND get a chance to bring them back. Then days become weeks, weeks become months, and before you know it, you owe the library 35 cents. LOL. I'm just joking. I actually know a lot of people who have forgotten to return ...

A Miss TLC Album Review: Alicia Keys "As I Am"
2007-11-13 15:46:00
Alicia has already conquered the (semi) impossible before. Her debut album (Songs In A Minor)was so widely acclaimed (mainly due to the gargantuan single "Fallin") that many believed she couldn't do it again with her sophomore release, The Diary of Alicia Keys . But with monster hits like "If I Ain't Got You" and "You Don't Know My Name", it exploded bigger than the first.Now four years have passed, and fans have been anxiously awaiting the songstress' new material for months. Today, As I Am, finally hits store shelves. This album is pure 70s emotional soul, and I love it. Whether or not her fans will fall in love with it instantly though remains to be seen. See, the thing with Alicia is that she's always been able to successfully blend that old soul musical style with current hip-hop elements. This album doesn't really have any of that. Except for the iTunes bonus track ("Waiting For Your Love"), there are virtually no hip-hop samples and/or scratches. Personally I lo...

For those who don't know, Kanye was EXTREMELY close with his mother, who worked as his manager, and released a book about raising him this past Mother's Day. Kanye even wrote a song about her entitled "Hey Mama" for his sophomore album Late Registration.You can buy her book here.And you can watch a very touching clip reflecting on Kanye's relationship with his mother (from MTV.com) below.MTVMusic VideosMTV ShowsEntertainment NewsFor another clip, and a more extensive article on the subject, go to MTV.com here.
