Dear Princesses:

When this whole new financial bailout goes south, remember who voted for it. And vote THEM out of office.

This deal is totally a bad idea in the long run.

All we’re sayin.

That, and we feel superbad for Miss Heather Locklear. Perhaps the psychopharms she got at the rehab are a bad combo cause she wasn’t drunk.

We don’t like Tina Fey. We think she is one smug rhymes with witch. We’d like to see her debate Sarah Palin. Most of those Hollywood types are outed as stupid once they are called on the carpet to defend their views.

We think Lipstick Jungle is off to a fab start and can’t wait to see this week’s episode.

Scarlett Johannson marries at 23. That’ll last.

DJ AM and Travis Barker seemed to be getting along much better. AM has returned to LA and Travis should be out in a coupla weeks. That is great news. 

We love the elle.com/astrology horoscopes. You should check em out.

We bought galpal Jill a purple pumpkin for Halloween but she doesn’t know it yet. We got some dark chocolate M&Ms, too. We love Halloween and plan to wear our tiara (natch) and pass out candy. When little kids ask us ‘what are you?’ we say what we always say, even when it isn’t Halloween: A princess.

AS IF

Dancing and some gay stuff

We loved the second night of Dancing with the Stars. Brooke Burke looked amazing and we love the teenage lovefest that is Julianne Hough and the boy she’s dancing with (where did he come from; he looks like they plucked him from some high school or maybe the Disney lot?) We think Lance Bass is getting hosed by the judges, perhaps being held to a higher standard because he’s a boybander. But Toni Braxton is also a performer and she doesn’t seem to get the same scrutiny. Sometimes, this show lets you see who is NOT cool and also lets you find out who is cool but nobody knows it. Ya know. (Screw the syntax. We’re on a roll.)

So….Clay Aiken is gay. That boy has had a hard row to hoe these last few years, being asked all the time and so publicly about his sexuality. Like it was anyone’s business. That said, no shock. Anyone who thought he was straight is some no-date fatty or some middle-age nutcase cat hoarder, right? Those Claymates will forgive him. Really, they just think he’s talented with great energy. And he is. We’re glad that he did this on his own time and in his own way — which is the way it ought to be for everyone. And so we say Godspeed Clay — and your little munchkin is adorable. He seems like the kind of guy who has the heart to be a great dad.

While we are on the gay thang: NOT BELIEVING FOR ONE SECOND THAT LINDSAY LOHAN IS GAY. We do believe she’s pushing the exploratory envelope with Sam after a tough time in her life. But as for this being some sort of permanent thing: We think not. And we worry that poor Samantha is going to get her feelings hurt badly.

That said, we LOVE Samantha’s music and urge you to get to her myspace account to hear more for yourself. It’s fab. She needs more exposure for that rather than Linds.

In other more personal news: Should we get bangs? Long ones? Maybe some face-scrapers like Sarah Palin? Or are bangs kinda whitetrashy? Hard to say. We’re thinkin.

xoxo

Well, now. It’s going to be a fabulous new season. We are excited.

Our initial thoughts:

That Misty chick looks like a man, sorta. That dark make-up is kinda tranny.

Susan Lucci can’t dance or move although she has quite the bod for a woman of 60. If she has a surgeon, could he/she please give up a call. Magnifique.

Kim Kardashian needs to dance with her partner, not herself. Oddly, she never really connected with him. 

Warren Sapp is genius. For a big dude, he can seriously move and entertain. What a personality. We are shocked, shocked.

Lance Bass needs to get back to performing because he radiates joy like few others do. He’s so amazing to watch. We’d be shocked if he wasn’t a finalist. 

Toni Braxton is still gorgeous. Dunno if she’ll win, but it’s great to see her again.

Whaddya think?

We liked all of the stupid pinko political comments from Hollywood’s big brains, but other than that, and Jeremy Piven’s moment of truth, we pretty much thought this year’s show sucked.

Three hours and about two jokes that worked. Maybe the writers should strike again and work on being FUNNY.

We did think Emmy voters got a lot of things right, tho. We can’t argue with the winners, even if some came from shows we haven’t yet seen.

We do give major snaps to Christina Applegate, who looked fabulous and no worse for the wear after her double mastectomy. She is a real comic talent who hasn’t yet gotten her due, we think.

As for Piven: He once told us to our face that our DVF dress looked like his shower curtain. So it would seem art does imitate life or vice versa.

Loved Brooke Shields’ hot pink dress — VERY DIVALICIOUS. More fashion commentary later.

And finally…..our boys DJ AM and Travis Barker are gonna live and perhaps are less injured than we initially thought. That is GREAT news and we send those boys our continued prayers as they recover. Their physical injuries aside, the mental toll of surviving such a tragedy is probably significant. Can you imagine being the only survivors walking out of a burning plane?

We can’t either. Much love to those boys in Georgia. Glad to see their family and pals gathering round.

Pray for Travis and Adam

As we type, Adam Goldstein (known professionally as DJ AM) and musician Travis Barker are in an Augusta, Ga. hospital being treated for serious burns after their Lear jet crashed on takeoff from Columbia, S.C.

We met Adam several years ago at a party he was working at the Delano Hotel in Miami. We’d known about him — he was involved in a relationship for a time with Nicole Ritchie — but were very surprised to find out that he was not a spoiled brat celebrity but a supernice guy. 

We went up to his DJ booth and asked him if he had some specific music. He laughed — it was older and out of his spectrum that night — but offered to come up with some other stuff we might like. And he didn’t blow us off. He chatted, asked US about OUR life and got to work playing our songs.

On the celebrity ego spectrum, he had NONE. He was a sweet boy with a great, low-key personality and seemed totally real.

And so we pray for Adam and for Travis, who was on the plane, and for the families of the others who died in this crash. It’s been a long time since we had a celebrity plane crash, so to speak, but this one looks like it’s shaping up to be a real tragedy.

:-(

Mariah Carey’s boy-husband looks more like a bodyguard than a spouse, the way he tries to escort her around at events. What a show those two put on! He always looks like he’s waiting on her. We ponder the longevity of this odd (publicity stunt) union.

Cute – and SO diva – that Jennifer Lopez made costume and hair-do changes during her husband’s 40th birthday bash last weekend. What, so one outfit would not do for the entire party?

Shannen Doherty looks super good now that we are seeing more of her with the redux of 90210. No really. We’d like to be catty but we’re happily surprised.

That Miley Cyrus looks like she’s wearing a wig, in real life. We fear she’s on the Jamie Lynn Spears track. Her dad doesn’t look, ummmmm, too strict, shall we say. She seems oddly flip and arrogant for a teenager with some power. Not likeable at all.

That Trista Sutter from The Bachelor/Bachlorette kinda got uglier now that she’s off TV and living in the real world. We liked her, but she’s a lot more suburban frumpy these days. Sigh, sigh, sigh. Is marriage the black hole of pretty? We think probably so.

We think Michael Phelps is a terrific swimmer but not hot. Kinda dorky, but definitely a great athlete.

We think Robert Downey Jr. could use some Juvederm or facial filler. His face is deploding as he gets older. Have ya noticed? He is one of our favorites so we sent this side note with

We would like to try on the Cindy McCain clothes. She has quite the diva closet. World class.

We think this election is the MOST sexist ever. We can’t get over it. We really can’t.

We like Sarah Palin but think those suits of hers look a little too Talbots. She’s petite and all, but we’d like to see her move into dresses a bit. Her personality is so large, she doesn’t need a suit to be forceful, we think. Loving tho, that she loves high heels. She’s rocking them HUGE on the campaign trail.

We wish we could be a fly on the wall at Hillary’s house. We bet she is PISSED that Palin and McCain stole her thunder. Not picking her will totally turn out to be Obama’s biggest regret.

Dancing with the Stars starts next week. We’ll be there. Watch along with us so we can make fun of people.

The diva used to dig watching “The View.” We loved the chick chat and even enjoyed the psychodrama between Rosie and Elisabeth. But the treatment of John McCain by these leftist vixens was ridiculous.

How does it square the Joy Behar calls John McCain a liar? It’s fine that she disagrees with him politically, but to sit there and accuse him like that, she should be reprimanded by her network. Hopefully thoughtful people will realize that she’s simply ill-informed and squawking with the proletariat about things she doesn’t understand. Funny comic, yes. Politically astute? Ummmmmm, no. We don’t think so. Perhaps her hormones are as out of whack as her opinions.

You know it’s out of hand when Cindy McCain, who has quietly held her tongue against criticism thus far, tagged the hosts for picking her family’s bones clean. Not an unfair assessment, after watching the replay. And what about them questioning HER about the number of houses her family owns?

Like it’s SO bad that she’s rich and has some property. All those leftist witches are rich, too, compared to most of the population. But suddenly Cindy McCain — and her husband by association — are out of touch because Cindy’s family made a lot of money in their business dealings.

The way those View chicas treated the Obamas was a lot different. Not that they can’t be partisan — it’s not journalism, it’s entertainment — but their disrespect of the views of people they disagree with certainly zaps their credibility among smart women.

To wit: we’re super angered by people who hate on those who don’t think like them. They diminish the sisterhood.

AS IF

True Blood, that new vampire show on HBO. Redneck blood-suckers. Who knew? Not loving the very disjointed Entourage, but Ari still rocks.

We give props to J-Lo for doing a triathalon. That is some shit for little bigbutt. Respect.

What’s up with Eva Longoria Parker getting tagged as fat because she’s got a little belly. Have ya seen her in person? She’s size MINUS 0. Now she looks about three sizes below normal – and hardly fat. That is some Hollywood insanity dubbing her fat.

We can hardly wait for the season premiere of Lipstick Jungle later this month. Our total fave show, now that Sex in the City is gone.

Was it just us, cause we didn’t find Tropic Thunder very funny. We wish we did, but no.

There’s a new Britney album coming. You’ve been warned. (No, seriously we like her and hope for the best. We were just playin.)

Is it just us or is the Obama camp looking desperate and making bad decisions? Ever since Palin, they’ve been acting scared, not forceful. And that Biden. ZZZZZZZ. The biggest mistake Obama will have made is not picking Hillary. Just watch. Huge error.

On SNL, Tina Fey nailed Sarah Palin, no?

Cindy Crawford has much darker hair. You’d think it’d be aging but not so much. Snaps.

Best wishes to Lt. Sulu who got married this weekend after 21 years with his boyfriend. We interviewed him once and he was super nice. We remember the nice ones more than the bad ones. George Takei is sweet.

More later……………
