Jessica Morgan and Heather Cocks. Have you ever wondered why the very people that have tons of cash to drop at swanky stores can be such fashion trainwrecks? Often celebrities have the nerve to flaunt both their big paychecks and free designer clothes. Lucky for us, it's always fun to watch. That's where you'll find Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan of the super-popular Go Fug Yourself. Every day they skewer the super famous and......

When Sharon Stone wears a gown that looks like she's been shot or Lindsay Lohan goes out in public in an insanely sheer dress, Mr. Blackwell considers their candidacy for his annual top 10 worst dressed.

Tomorrow Mr. Blackwell, the well-known fashion critic and designer, will unveil his 48th Annual Worst-Dressed......

On Saturday evening, the City of Beverly Hills held its Annual Holiday Lighting Ceremony, "Deck the Hills," on Rodeo Dr., with performances by m-pact (MySpace), Concert 9Net (MySpace), and The Ditty Bops (MySpace). This was followed with the lighting by Mayor Jimmy Delshad and "surprise guest" Sharon Stone (who later attended a Gucci benefit) of a 12,000-crystal UNICEF snowflake floating over the Beverly Wilshire Hotel and twenty one-of-a-kind Baccarat chandeliers along Rodeo Drive, as......

A fairly mundane week of new releases. Hannibal Rising has a definite Queen of the Damned stench to it. Never saw the original Eating Out but folks sure are lining up to buy the sequel. Sharon Stone's beaver in glorious 1080i! Wayne Knight's accompanying flop-sweat in glorious 1080i! Will probably hold off on buying the Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition since I hear the Superman Double Ultimate Collector's Edition is coming this Christmas. Kevin Dillon's......

Tickets go on sale tomorrow, Friday the 13th, for the 2006 installment of AFI Fest, Los Angeles' valiant (read: sometimes comical, sometimes desperate) attempt to mount a world-class film festival, something this city deserves but sorely lacks. This year AFI Fest will screen 147 feature films and 36 shorts including several special screenings and premieres. The festival will host the U.S. premiere of Bobby, the Emilio Estevez-directed drama about the assassination of Robert F.......

Are there classes--like "Opening mouth, inserting foot 101" or "How to revive a flailing career or image"-- that celebs must take? Last year it was Tom Cruise on Oprah, then Tom Cruise chastizing Brooke Shields and psychology; this year we have former Basic Instinct stars trying to rage against the dying of the light (also known as obscurity in Hollywood). If you haven't heard, Sharon Stone will be posing nude in the Basic Insinct......

One of the fun things about celebrity birthdays is seeing what famous people are born on the same day you are. Well, March 10 babies, we apologize. Celebrating his 49th birthday today is Osama Bin Laden, in an undisclosed location. Sharon Stone says she's celebrating her 48th today. Although if any women in Hollywood have ever fudged their age (no!) we'd wager Sharon Stone is among them. We believe that Jasmine Guy from "A Different......
