Back in October, Lamar Odom overdosed on a cocktail of drugs while partying at a brothel in Nevada. The incident nearly cost Odom his life, and he was comatose by the time he arrived at a nearby hospital. Miraculously, Odom eventually emerged from his coma and began the slow process of recovering. Khloe Kardashian has offered several encouraging updates, but she concedes there's a good chance that Odom will never be quite the same again Kourtney Kardashian stopped by Ellen DeGeneres' show recently, and she FaceTimed Khloe during her interview so that the two of them could fill fans in on the latest about Lamar. Kourtney and Khloe both described Odom as “good,” but Khloe elaborated that the former NBA star's “short term memory is not so great.” Odom was released from the hospital earlier this month, and he's apparently visited Khloe and the rest of the Kardashian clan several times since. While the news was mostly encouraging, Khloe was honest about Lamar's mental state, admitting that he still doesn't fully understand what happened to him: “And every day he’ll ask me, 'So what happened to me?'” Khloe explains. “Like today specifically, he was like, 'How many tubes did I have in me again?' And I’m like, ‘I don’t know what’s too serious to tell you,’ but I’m honest.” “I’m like, ‘Well just a lot, I didn’t count, I don’t know.’ But it’s good that he wants to know these answers. Before he didn’t want to know he wasn’t ready to know. So it’s great that he’s at the point that he’s ready to know everything that happened.” Khloe has long had a reputation as the “realest” Kardashian, and it seems she's maintaining her remarkably honest relationship with fans throughout the difficult process of helping Lamar recuperate. Here's wishing the best of luck for both of them.

Let's face it: it'll be tough to top Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 8 . Those wacky White Walkers and their undead minions delivered one of the most unforgettable action sequences the show has ever pulled off, and with just two episodes remaining, it's hard to imagine anything in the next two episodes will blow our hair back quite the same way. Of course, it wouldn't be the first time showrunners D.B. Weiss and David Benioff shocked us out of our seats just when we were beginning to think they were out of tricks for the season. With the show beating the books to the punch on big, climactic moments like the first meeting between Tyrion and Daenerys , truly no one knows what will happen next for the first time since GoT premiered. In a season that's already packed so many surprises (too many, according to some book-readers), it would be foolish to try and guess what will happen next. That said, we believe we can safely say that if you think this season will have a happy ending for the newest Lord Commander of the Night's Watch…then you know nothing, Jon Snow. 1. Jon in the Snow Jon looking pensive in the snow. We get the feeling his future at Castle Black won’t be too bright. 2. Davos and Shireen Davos and Shireen share a moment. Screw Stannis; we want Shireen to get the Iron Throne! 3. Arya Stark…Or Whatever Her Name is Now Arya Stark continues her weird storyline in her Braavos. We’re pretty sure she’s gonna be able to change her face soon, which is pretty badass. 4. Melisandre: Hot in the Snow Winter is finally coming to Westeros. But of course, Melisandre remains hot. 5. Daenerys and Hizdahr Zo Loraq The Khaleesi and her husband-to-be. She should reconsider just so she doesn’t have to remember how to spell dude’s name. 6. Sam, Jon, Snow Sam and Jon Snow enjoy some of the North’s lovely weather. Looks like Ned Stark was a better weatherman than we thought. View Slideshow
I’m sure that at least a few of you are back in the office today, and I feel your pain, although technically “my office” is my bed, so it’s not quite the same. But the good news is we’re not the only ones back at work, because here’s Italian actress/model/professional sunbather Sveva Alviti at her office (aka the beach) and she’s been working straight through the holidays . I have to say, I’m pretty impressed with her work ethic, and I’d love to get into business with her. So once she’s done here, Sveva should swing by my office for a very important meeting. I’ll even make the bed. » view all 15 photos Photos: PacificCoastNews Sveva Alviti
I can’t figure out why, but for whatever reason, Lily Aldridge isn’t in quite the same league as some of her fellow Victoria’s Secret hotties, and that’s just not right. But luckily, this crazy-hot shoot she just did for GQ UK is definitely a step in the right direction, and if Lily’s interested, I’ve got a bunch of ideas for what she could do next. Granted, most of them involve either hooking up with or sending topless pictures to a certain well-connected blogger, but hey, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it.
Brooke Burke is another Fan of Drunkenstepfather who has blocked me on twitter because she doesn’t like being called a washed up party slut who is only famous for being a set of fake tits in a bikini and who is now famous for being the bitch who had 8 kids and manages to maintain a 6-pack and look awesome, which is probably not quite the same praise her vagina gets everytime she ets naked, but still a fucking accomplishment and something worth celebrating, because one of the things I hate in life is moms blaming their fat guts on pregnancy and not on laziness or bad diet….cuz too many bitches with kids manage to stay hot and the rest of you dumps are liars ruining everyone’s lives…. Either way, she’s in Miami in a bikini, looking good. TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS FOLLOW THIS LINK
James McTeigue ’s The Raven , a thriller set in Baltimore during the last days of Edgar Allan Poe’s life, is a handsome-looking thing, with fairly grand period costumes and reasonably lavish sets. So much for production values: In every other way the picture is stiff and unyielding, hampered by a clumsy plot and diorama performances. The whole thing has the feel of a second-rate living-history exhibit. John Cusack plays the beleaguered Poe, who hasn’t had a literary hit in a long time and doesn’t even have enough dough in his pocket to buy the good stiff drink he sorely needs: When the barkeep at the local watering hole refuses to serve him, he tosses a pile of coins and crumpled money on the bar, and there’s an old button mixed in there, too. Still, Edgar finds some solace in his romance with the pretty, vivacious Emily Hamilton (Alice Eve), whose father greatly disapproves of the match. (It helps that he’s played by a gruff, grouchy Brendan Gleeson, taking his role only about as seriously as he needs to.) Meanwhile, there’s something really ugly going down in Baltimore. A serial killer is offing his victims via grisly means clearly inspired by Poe’s stories: A mother and daughter suffer a throat cutting and a strangulation, respectively, a la “The Murders in the Rue Morgue.” A critic (!) named Griswold – based on one of Poe’s real-life adversaries — is slowly, excruciatingly bisected by a scary slicer thing right out of “The Pit and the Pendulum.” Fields (Luke Evans), a young detective working on the case, appeals to Edgar to help him find the culprit. To complicate matters, the creep absconds with Emily and challenges Edgar to find her before she succumbs to the nasty death he’s got planned for her. That’s not a terrible premise for a film, and The Raven at least offers the occasional spurting blood vessel of gruesome fun. Sometimes, though, it seems to aspire to be a sort of period Saw — albeit a much tamer one – with a degree of sadism it really doesn’t need. McTeigue (who directed, seemingly a century ago, the adaptation of Alan Moore and David Lloyd’s V for Vendetta ) is working from a script by Ben Livingston and Hannah Shakespeare, and you can see he’s pedaling hard to keep the suspense level high: The Raven seems to be striving to jazz up Poe the way Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes movies tried – unsuccessfully – to capture the spark of Arthur Conan Doyle. Along the way, the plot wobbles off the rails too many times to count, particularly as the movie rattles toward its convenient wrap-up, but that isn’t even the major problem with it. It all could have worked, maybe – if only Cusack, as the frustrated, impoverished genius, weren’t so insufferable. Cusack tries to turn Poe into a tragic crank, a man whose brilliance was sorely underappreciated by the masses, and even if the approach is believable enough, Cusack too often comes off as an imperious bore. He peers at the folk around him through those small, dark, glittering eyes; sometimes he condescends to them with that reluctant crinkle of a smile. Cusack has often been a marvelous actor – he was convincingly haunted in the 2007 Stephen King adaptation 1408 – but he makes a smug Poe, not a tortured one. It doesn’t help that the character keeps reminding everyone in the movie, and us, how brilliant he is. The real Poe was brilliant, and the literature he left behind elicits a particular type of delicate but bone-rattling shiver; no artist since has been able to match it. Do we really need John Cusack strutting around in a floaty cape, bellyaching about how the simpletons around him just don’t get his genius? Poor Edgar sure didn’t have it easy in life; the last thing he deserves is to be portrayed as a pompous ass. Follow Stephanie Zacharek on Twitter . Follow Movieline on Twitter .
“He’s full of praise for Ricky Gervais, but he’s never seen the American version of The Office . ‘I can’t, there’s no point. Ricky’s truly was done like a documentary. In the States they can’t go there. They’ve got to light it brighter, and the camera can’t move in quite the same way because the audience won’t stand for that. It’s a horrible way of using the device. They’re using a device that they don’t truly understand. And I’m not a fan of kind of doing something. Do it or don’t do it. If you’re going to do a fake documentary, make it a fake documentary. Have the balls to just do it that way.'” [ The Guardian ]
I can’t figure out how I missed these pictures of Minka Kelly and Rachel Taylor kissing on set, unless they weren’t taken last week when I posted the pics of them in the same outfits, before ripping into the lack of creativity in Hollywood, and the fact that shows like this exist make me realize why the internet is so successful, cuz audiences get smarter, yet they still pump out the same fucking smut over and over again, 30 years later…. I’m thinking they went back on set, in the same costumes and figured they needed to add some lesbianism, like college girls looking for male attention, since that’s just what bottom feeding, laziness, in a “Look at Me, Look at Me”…hoping for ratings hustle is…. So obvious, even annoying, but I gotta post it anyway…
Carmen Electra is pushing 40 but more importantly is pushing boring. It’s just not quite the same as staring at her in the 90s at her peak of fame. It’s like she had her moment of glory, her time to shine, and seeing her now, is not one of those “For Old Times Sake” but is more “Old Timer”…there’s so much hotter young pussy we should focus on, let’s think of this as the unofficial Carmen Electra Sexuality Obituary….
