Nick Lachey on Joe Simpson: “Played Grab-Ass on Easter Sunday”

Andy Cohen sure knows how to cause drama. During ‘Watch What Happens Live,’ the 98 degrees singer confessed to not having spoken to Jessica Simpson in years, followed by the revelation that the “best thing about not having Joe Simpson as a father-in-law” is avoiding under-the-table grab-ass. I suppose we now know the real source of tension between Lachey and Papa Joe.

Reese Witherspoon’s Tirade Caught on Tape — Hilarious!!

Reese Witherspoon might be the only celebrity in history that should be grateful that her bad behavior was caught on tape. What looked awful in print, looks hilarious on video. Watch below to see America’s A-lister remind the police officer of her citizenship . . . over and over again.

Mike Doughty Re-imagines Soul Coughing Songs — New Album

When I interviewed Mike Doughty, I was careful about the Soul Coughing questions. He’s been clear that his experience with his former band was less than stellar, and he’s since maintained a successful solo career. Having said that, Soul Coughing has a special place in my heart beside my teenage-angst years, and I’ve always held out hope for Mike to play those songs again. So you can imagine my elation upon discovering his Pledge Music page, where he’s raising money to rework those songs. The project makes sense, considering at the time of our talk, Mike explained that the desire to appease his band-mates ultimately sacrificed his original vision. With this new project, his vision will now be restored.

Though he’s already reached his Pledge Music goal, you’ll still get lots of goodies if you contribute, including ten video performances that are exclusively available to pledgers.

Get excited. This is gonna be good.

Reese Witherspoon Addresses Drunken Tirade — WATCH NOW

I paid close attention to Reese Witherspoon’s mea culpa, and my forgiveness is on the fence. She’s in a tough position. If she blames her bad behavior on being wasted, then it’s less understandable that she and her husband felt fine to drive. So she’s either wasted and not a bitch, or she was sober enough to feel fine to drive, and acted like a bitch because that’s her true personality. Since this is her first slip-up though, I’m guessing she wont’ be in the dog house for long.

Mariah v. Nicki — You’ve Never Had a #1 Billboard Single

The only way to describe the Nicki/Mariah feud is sad, unprofessional, and inappropriate. But here at The Dishmaster, I take sides, and I have to fall on Team Mariah, though it’s a close call. First, Nicki Minaj should not have been hired. Mariah was pitched the show as a three person panel with her as the star, and only found out about Nicki’s addition after she signed on the dotted line. We’re not in high school anymore, so we don’t have to play with people we don’t like. Had Mariah known about Nicki, perhaps she would have chosen another playground. That being said, Nicki not only initiates the taunting, but she’s also detracts the spotlight from the contestants with her over-the-top antics. And when Mariah disengaged, she received Producer-heat for her backseat approach to a front-seat job. I predict a complete overhaul next season — though I think Keith Urban will stay.
