“Being asked to help put on the Oscar show was the proudest moment of my career. But as painful as this may be for me, it would be worse if my association with the show were to be a distraction from the Academy and the high ideals it represents.” Brett Ratner on stepping down from his post as producer of the Academy Awards, because — well . . . he’s a douchebag. And Brett — if you’re reading this, I have some advice. Treat those around you with a little respect and maybe you won’t be such a terrible person.

Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy Shoot Inspired by Marilyn Monroe — Unoriginal?
It’s time for celebrities everywhere to get over Marilyn Monroe. I get it — she was beautiful, tortured, and talented — but can’t someone think of a more original person to copy? At least Jennifer Aniston had the bright idea to copy Barbra Streisand. Lindsay Lohan has hopped on board the copy-cat train with her new Playboy shoot, where she will be “channeling” Marilyn Monroe’s Tom Kelley nude pictorial. No word yet on whether she’ll follow this up with a Marilyn Monroe tattoo on her arm like Megan Fox. Further Reading: Karina Smirnoff Poses for Playboy — What’s the Point?
Dr. Drew Looks for Courtney Stodden’s Breast Implants — GROSS!
Was there a moment when Dr. Drew realized he’d gone to the dark side? Or has he convinced himself he’s still doing important work? And speaking of important work, is there anything more valuable than conducting an on-air ultra-sound to determine if a pedophile’s teenage girlfriend has had breast implants? I suppose there’s a line that everyone crosses when they get a taste of fame, and even real doctors are susceptible to becoming blood-sucking maggots. Shame on you, Dr. Drew. Watch below.
Quote of the Day — Brett Ratner — A Bigot?
“I apologize for any offense my remarks caused. It was a dumb way of expressing myself. Everyone who knows me knows that I don’t have a prejudiced bone in my body. But as a storyteller I should have been much more thoughtful about the power of language and my choice of words.” Brett Ratner (A.K.A. the douchiest douche on the planet), on saying “rehearsal is for fags.”
Howard Stern Show Crashes Gloria Allred’s News Conference
Howard Stern should give Benjy Bronk a raise. The Stern writer has gotten his ring-master’s name in the press on numerous occasions, most notably for asking Anthony Weiner if he is “more than seven inches.” His latest victim is Gloria Allred, who was set to introduce Herman Cain’s latest sexual-harassment accuser when Bronk took the podium to chant in Hebrew, followed by assurances to the press that he may or may not be the woman in question because perhaps he got “genitalia surgery.” Watch below.

Song of the Day: Ingrid Michaelson’s ‘Sort Of’
Our greatest loves are often the most turmoil-driven. Angst breeds obsession, and obsession is debilitating. So when I came across Ingrid Michaelson’s song, ‘Sort Of’, and I heard the line, “I find you stunning, but you are running me down,” I had to post it. The song is on her 2009 album, ‘Everybody.’ If you’ve ever experienced that kind of painful love that “flattens” you, then pay close attention to the lyrics.
Vintage Clip — Kristen Wiig & Jon Hamm’s Sex — ‘Bridesmaids’
Only a woman could properly write a movie scene that shows what makes sex bad for a woman. And only Kristen Wiig could make it hysterical. I’ve posted one of my favorite movie clips of all time, from Kristen Wiig’s ‘Bridesmaids,’ where Jon Hamm executes what I like to call — “rabbit sex.” It’s too bad that this scene alone knocked Jon Hamm of my fantasy actor list. It’s permanently etched in my mind. Enjoy!

Justin Bieber on Chelsea Lately — Ego-Inflated?
In case you’re wondering whether Justin Bieber will be the next MC Hammer, the video below will answer your question. He appeared on Chelsea Lately while drenched in Usher’s ego. Did those two clowns sit down and discuss how to ooze douchebag during interviews? Sure the kid is 17, but I predict a full-on waterfall mansion followed by bankruptcy. Click below to see the interview.
