Patrick Dempsey the new face of Versace
Patrick Dempsey of Grey’s Anatomy—let’s also not forget Loverboy and Meatballs III—is the new face of Versace’s men’s line, according to the fashion house. Donatella Versace said to the press, ‘He has that confidence, completely comfortable in his own skin, that is so attractive.’ Mr Dempsey’s campaign has already been shot by Mario Testino and […]
A dog was found dead today (Gillian Gibbons, Ahmadinejad speech in later news)
The front page of The Dominion Post highlighted the death of Cricket, the pet chihuahua of New Zealand celebrity Nicky Watson, and told buyers there would be a story inside. On p. A3 there was an eighth of a page. On the radio, I heard about the passing of her dog. Before I launch into […]

The Delta Goodrem–Brian McFadden about-face
[Cross-posted] I spotted the below on Ninemsn today and thought, ‘Poor Brian.’ I clicked on the ?rst link and found quite the opposite: It’s not as embarrassing as the network, and the Murdoch Press, reporting on the Miranda Kerr incident two years late and getting the venue wrong, but it’s still an about-face. Netizens will […]
San Francisco Chronicle reports Miranda Kerr–Paris Hilton incident
Fascinating: after our post exposing the Miranda Kerr v. Paris Hilton incident at Victoria’s Secret to be false—or at least ridiculously inaccurate, with media outlets getting the year and the venue wrong—the Chronicle’s SFGate.com still reported it. It has taken the post down now, but not before Google News found it: Yes, we are […]
