Kell on Earth: The Check Is in the Fail

We were too busy dreaming about Bodie Miller’s backside to bother watching Kell on Earth last night. Thankfully fictional freelancer Betsey Morgenstern was working there this fall during the filming. We have a feeling she has some stories to share. Double Agent Provacateur by Betsey Morgenstern After getting busy in a Burger King Uniqlo Bathroom last week, things have been progressing nicely between me and Tim, the Irish intern. He’s been coming over to my apartment and brouging into my ear just about every night as we cuddle and coo underneath the covers. He says that he’s not looking for a girlfriend and doesn’t want anything exclusive. I think that’s bullshit. I should be able to sleep with other men, but if he wants to keep riding on the Betsey train, this has got to be the only caboose he’s grabbing. One night during fashion week, we were all working late and Big Stephanie, the one who can’t find her asshole with both hands, a flashlight, and a Google map with a big red circle painted squarely on her pucker, asked if Tim would walk her home because she is scared of the homeless man that asks for money outside the apartment her parents rent for her in the West Village. Doesn’t she know that Tim is my man? How dare she try to take him from me! For this, she shall die. The easy thing about ruining Big Stephanie’s career is that she makes it especially easy. Not only is she whiny and incompetent, but she is also infernally stupid and disorganized, so even a lowly intern like myself can throw her world into a tizzy. Here is how I did it. First, when she was printing out labels for the invitations for the Nicolas Achoo show, I hacked into her computer and had it print out the labels four times. She never even bothered to check the names, and had the interns make up four complete sets of invitations! Ha. Then she told us to get the stamps and mail them, and I took most of the postage and stashed it in my bag. Then she only had 120 stamps and about 8 jillion invites to send out. Really, she only had 2 jillion times four, but it took Big Stephanie’s little brain a while to figure that out. She was so befuddled by the multiple labels and lack of stamps that she stomped around, eyes welled up, screaming about how disorganized everything was. Why not just put a plan into effect and execute it, BS? It is that hard? Finally, after getting chewed out by Emily and annoying everyone in the office, Kelly stepped in and had to take over the whole affair. Doesn’t she have better things to do, like tracking down the long-lost dog that her former maid’s sister gave away to the shelter in Staten Island? I heard that it’s being held for ransom by the lesbian neighbors that hate Kelly. If the invitation debacle wasn’t enough to get Big Stephanie forever away from my boyfriend Tim, the next step in my plan was to ruin the press release she prepared for the Nicolas Achoo show. I went in and added a h into Nicolas, but only one. If I spelled them all wrong then the press would just think that’s how his name is spelled, but if you spell it two different ways, they won’t know which way is correct and then they’ll call the PR girl whose name is on the release and get all bitchy asking her which way it should be spelled. Fucking reporters. Too bad Emily noticed it before it went out and made her change it. She apologized over and over again, but she didn’t even defend herself and say that something must have happened. She just admitted that she had no idea how to spell his name and tried to make it seem like it was no big deal, oh, Stephanie. When it finally comes to the day of the Nicolas Achoo show, everything is going well and Kelly is hitting on all the 19 year-old male models and is in this weird cougar zone where she wants to be both their mother and their lover at the same time. Gross. But none of the models are nearly as cute as Achoo, who is like some grand poobah of menswear. Kelly thinks that his clothes are genius but not wearable. I have no clue what she is talking about. Who doesn’t want to wear a complete body sock with a mask and a tuxedo over it? I have to work the door of the show, and before it all starts, I corner Nicolas and ask him what he thinks I would look like in one of his spandex outfits. “Sorry, but they’re for men.” “Nicolas, don’t you think my bodacious bottom would look great covered in tight fabric?” “I’m sure it would, but these are for men.” “Wouldn’t you like to unzip me from your creation and caress your hands all over my smooth skin.” “Sorry, but I am for the men as well.” What an asshole. And to think I worked so hard to fuck up the invitations to his show and this is the thanks I get. The press starts arriving and I’m trying to think up ways to get my revenge. As he’s talking to the women from Women’s Wear Daily . He starts to give her all this attitude when she doesn’t understand his vision. This is one of those situations where I don’t have to do anything, but watch him self-destruct. He gives GQ the stink eye when they laugh at his clothes, and he give sass to the women from Esquire because she thinks he is too avante-garde for the magazine. The only press people that like him are the Japanese because, well, they are into really fucked up shit like that. He’s not happy with the press he got for the show at all, and calls up Emily the next day to bitch her out. All she wants is his check, which he won’t fork over because he says People’s Revolution didn’t do their job. I was hoping that Emily would fire Big Stephanie over this, but instead everyone gets made at Nicolas Achoo because he won’t pay. Damn it, I’m going to have to mess with her again, and Kelly is going to take him to court. This thing is a huge mess. Maybe I can mess up Stephanie with the Agent Saboteur fashion show. Again it’s a problem with the invitations. This time I didn’t even do anything, Stephanie just fucked it up all on her own, and Emily yelled at her again. She was so mad that she bitched to her sister about it for like an hour while wondering around the streets of Manhattan trying to pick up tricks. She didn’t get a job, and stupid Stephanie still does. I’m going to get her yet. The show itself went fine after they solidified a venue. There was this really mean British bitch who worked for Agent Saboteur, and she kept ordering candles and birdcages like she had some kind of fetish for them. She was really driving everyone insane trying to get everything perfect in the lobby of the SoHo Grand Hotel, but Kelly was all like “Please, bitch, you ain’t got no money.” I don’t know why she was so worried about how the space looked because every girl who walked down the runway had an atomic wedgie, but apparently that was OK. At the end of the day, everyone was very pleased with the show. We know that it’s not going to last long, and I’m going to have to exploit it to get Stephanie fired. And when Tim, who I can’t understand, but is oh so pretty, lies his little head on my bosom at night, that is what I dream of while I stroke his hair. You will pay, Stephanie. You will pay.

Scoring Sunday’s Nuptials, V-Day Edition: The Facebook Wedding Crash Investigation

It’s Valentine’s Day, but what does that mean for the NYT’s Weddings & Celebrations ? And even more importantly: Gawker Weddings Expert Phyllis Nefler ? Nothing but business as usual: a massive hangover, investigative reporting on Facebook, and a Gizmodo writer’s wedding. Here is where there ought to be some sort of halfassed “rant” about Valentine’s Day, or at the very least a contrarian “in praise of” the holiday. You will not find that here. To be honest, I find anyone who is either a) weirdly obsessed with Valentine’s Day — cutting out paper hearts, bringing FAX ME candies to the office, mass-texting everyone with a lil “HAPPY

Bill Clinton Released From Hospital After Surgery

Bill Clinton was released this morning from a New York hospital after having two stents into a clogged coronary artery Thursday after complaining of chest pains. The one-hour procedure went smoothly, according to the former President’s cardiologist, and the 63-year-old was discharged this morning “in excellent health.” Clinton will soon return to his work on Haiti’s relief and long-term recovery, his office said, and will both recover fully and resume his “very active lifestyle.” Bill, who could have suffered a heart attack had this gone untreated, had the heart surgery at the same place where he had quadruple bypass surgery in 2004. “This was not a result of either his lifestyle or his diet, which have been excellent,” Clinton’s cardiologist, Alan Schwartz, told reporters from the hospital steps. A few stents won’t slow a good former president down. Schwartz said putting in stents were just another step in an ongoing process: “Just as illnesses have natural histories, treatments have natural histories.” Clinton has been working at a grueling pace since the January 12 earthquake in Haiti, but says his demanding schedule did not contribute to heart problems. Clinton, the U.N. special envoy to Haiti, is overseeing the U.S. response with former president George W. Bush and has been there twice in recent weeks. Clinton was working on issues related to Haiti when he felt chest pains. As he was being wheeled into the operating room, he was still on a conference call. Pretty standard for this guy. Bill’s daughter, Chelsea , joined him at the hospital, an aide said, as did wife and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. President Barack Obama called Clinton yesterday evening and wished him “a speedy recovery,” a White House aide said. THG wishes Big Daddy the same.

New York City is preparing for the onslaught of snowmageddon or snowpocalypse or the impending backlash against the so-called meteorologists for getting it wrong but just like the United States Post Office, Hollywood can’t be stopped by a little inclement weather. Unimpeded by the flurries of snow, Jessica Biel marched on with her promotional duties for her new film Valentine’s Day and stopped by Good Morning America this morning.

Lil Wayne Sentencing Delayed Due To Dental Surgery

Rapper will undergo surgery before serving his prison term; sentencing pushed back to March 2. By Jayson Rodriguez Lil Wayne (file) Photo: Andy Kropa/ Getty Images NEW YORK — Lil Wayne’s sentencing has been delayed until March 2 due to dental surgery, his attorney announced in a Manhattan courtroom Tuesday (February 9). The rapper was scheduled to be formally sentenced by a judge and begin serving his one-year term stemming from a 2007 arrest that resulted in a guilty plea in October for attempted weapons possession. The Cash Money MC arrived shortly after 2 p.m. with his label heads Birdman and Slim. He quietly entered the courtroom as photographers snapped pictures from the hallway. Wayne wore a navy coat and black-framed glasses, and he sat still while his lawyer Stacey Richman spoke. She informed the judge that she sent a notification to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office that the rapper is suffering from a cracked tooth and would need to postpone his sentence. The judge agreed and ruled to reschedule for March 2. The rapper is set to undergo surgery February 12 in Miami, according to Richman. He will need a week to 10 days to recover. His defense offered prosecutors February 25 as a date for Wayne to turn himself him in after surgery, but Judge Charles H. Solomon instead selected March 2. The judge then warned Wayne that he must return to Miami on Tuesday. Solomon insisted if he leaves tomorrow, there would be a chance his surgery would be delayed due to hazardous weather conditions leaving New York. “I don’t want this to get pushed back anymore,” Solomon said. “This is the last adjournment.” Related Videos Lil Wayne Goes To Jail Related Photos Lil Wayne’s Battle With His Gun Possession Case Related Artists Lil Wayne

Gov. David Paterson Spokeswoman Denies NYT Has a Resignation-Worthy Bombshell

The Business Insider posted an unconfirmed report that the New York Times ‘ David Paterson story is so big that the New York governor will resign tomorrow . But Paterson’s office is pushing back, telling Gawker “the governor is not resigning.” We asked Paterson’s deputy communications director Marissa Shoenstein for a response and she emailed the following: “There is absolutely zero truth to these rumors. The governor is not resigning.” Reached by phone, Shorenstein also claimed that the story isn’t coming out tomorrow or “any time soon” and called it a “profile” that’s going to be running in the Metro section of the New York Times . She says more than one Times writers will be bylined on the piece and that her office has been in contact with them and the governor is cooperating with the piece. Finally, when asked whether or not anything that’s going to be written in the forthcoming Times piece on Gov. Paterson could be described as scandalous, a “bombshell,” or anything that might find itself in the public’s general interest,” Shorenstein gave a flat-out deinal: “No.” This, of course, is all spin from the governor. The Times will publish when it’s good and ready. And they’ll have the final word. Which leaves us still wondering: What the hell is in this thing? Earlier, some commenters gave us some ideas. Runner Up: “He’s not really blind .” “Perhaps they’ve discovered that he has no idea how to govern .” ” I call banking kickbacks . That, or he wrote a cheque for a hooker like Jerry Springer.” “He first became Lieutenant Governor when Eliot Spitzer hired him for sex? ” “I’m guessing that he’s a masturbator .” ” It’s a hot li’l female , the Cuomo team is workin’ overtime, and he will not resign.” “He’s a hardcore Warcraft player who got a little too into erotic role playing as a female blood elf mage. Expect some pretty disgusting screenshots from Goldshire .” ” He’s a third-party in the John Edwards/Rielle Hunter sex tape.” “Basically it’s that he is actually a Belgian-born white dude named Tim Kimberly and he was once a paid assassin for Opus Dei .” “Unless the “bombshell” Paterson news involves either of the two philias — pedophilia, necrophilia — or active drug-dealing to under-age children, serial murder, cannibalism, or dog fighting, I’m not going to give a shit .” And finally, our winner: ” He’s really Fred Armisen .” Wow. Just…wow. More as we get it, but in the mean time, the Paterson camp is firm in their stance of noting that there’s nothing any of us should care about in this thing.
