Jennifer Love Hewitt did. So did Minka Kelly and Jessica Simpson.
Lately it’s Jennifer Aniston opening the gates to Wonderland for John to play in with his all day ride pass.
Which means she’s seeing a lot of this face.
Ahh the sex face. I still don’t have a copy of Guitar Hero III to play in the mirror, so I don’t know what mine looks like. I don’t want to know. But I’m certain this is John Mayer’s.

Avril Lavigne is working the media train in advance of her Best Damn Tour hitting town tomorrow, and I’ve been helping out. I took my radio interview from earlier this week and cut it up for 24hrs Vancouver.
Blah.. blah .. blah .. blah. Oscars schmoscars. Do we really care?
No. But it is fun to watch. And bitch.
Best line of the night to Jon Stewart: “You know what we do in commercial breaks? Huddle together and make catty comments about what you at home are wearing.”
Nice. Perfect. Cause I know you were all like “Who?” and “Eww” when Tilda Swinton won. And when Daniel Day Lewis was interviewed on the red carpet you took a ruler up to the screen to measure his hoops and recoiled in horror when his date’s dress was fully revealed.
Okay, nastiness out of the way, we all know it’s really about the parties afterwards. My son Zacharie will do his best to demonstrate how the night will go for many of the nominees.
Before.
Outfit picked by Rachel Zoe, hair done by Ken Paves.
After.
Damn, that LiLo knows how to show a boy a good time.
If ya want a really fun way to watch the show, get on Twitter. Everyone is randomly firing up feedback and one liners and exclamations and disappointments. They say the whole world is watching, and if you’re on twitter, it really feels like it’s true.
You know, stuff like this gem from Meg Fowler: “I’d like to accept my award for Bourne Ultimatum, but I’m busy f**king Matt Damon!”
See ya next year!

- Nicole Richie got $1M from People. Christina Aguilera is holding out for $1.5M. How much do you think the cutest baby pictures in the world are worth?
Almost as many people will watch the SuperBowl on Sunday to see the commercials between the plays, as will watch to see Brady v Manning.
It’s become a part of the culture of the game. It’s the day Madison Avenue cranks up it’s best and Monday newscasts are covered with extra free plays of the spots.
YouTube’s early days were fueled by our desire to watch these cool commercials. Since the spots are what we want, why not “leak” your commercial a few days in advance? Instead of getting lost in the post-game hype, you can capture some of the pre-game chatter.
Here are the spots that have surfaced so far:
Justin Timberlake for Pepsi.
Madonna and Shakira for Sunsilk.
That Madonna one is actually a duplicate posting, the original one was pulled because of “terms of use violation”?? An advertiser pulling a spot that people WANT to see, and they didnt have to pay for it? Colour me confused.
I’ll add more spots as they pop up.

Still slushing through the snow, here's what's up on the radio:
- If you're a political junkie cheering on the sidelines of the US election. Check out GlassBooth.org to see who you "should" be cheering for. Check out this article I wrote about how I think quizzes like this should be mandated at the voting booth.
- Entertainment Tonight is about to go all "Anna Nicole" on Heath Ledger, if they havent already. They have a bought a video of Heath in a very drug filled environment and will air it tonight.
- It's Weedless Wednesday. A part of National Non Smoking Week. Already BC has the lowest smoking rate in the country. If you still smoke, I'd like to ask you "Why?" Seriously, why would you do something like that to yourself. Pretend this is a debate, convince me that smoking is fine and dandy. You can't do it. Quit already.
Does anyone have a list of signs of the Apocalypse?
Is Britney back dating her paparazzo, Heath Ledger burning in hell and a stock market crash on that list?
It’s all happening. Let’s go through them back to front.
STOCKS
The stock market is taking a HUGE header this morning. Unless you’re near retirement, it’s not necessarily a bad thing. If you’re at least 10 years away from retiring, don’t sweat it. Just treat everything as if it’s on sale. It’s a chance to dollar cost average.
I get caught up in micromanaging my retirement portfolio, especially the 6 shares of AAPL I bought back in September for $138. I thought I was a Mad Money Man in December when it 200 and analysts were forecasting 300 for a high. “w00t!” Today, the stock is trading at under $137.
What happened? America just woke up and realized George Bush has been writing war checks his country can’t cash for the past 8 years. It has nothing to do with the turtlenecked one, and everything to do with crazy paranoia. But I’ve got 25 years left of clock punching, so I will BUY, not SELL, and look forward to the future.
HEATH in HELL
I admit it. I do not like organized religion. It may work for you, that’s great, I think a sense of spirituality is an important thing to have, but the blind trust that many put into the doctrines of religion really bothers me. Especially when those who do wave the flag of their belief in bold faced hate against others. Angry, nasty hatred.
Christopher Hitchens has a great read, God is Not Great, it deconstructs most religions for contradictory beliefs, perpetual corruption and the solitary source of all that is wrong in the world. Religion is supposed to be the great unifying force of peace, yet it is under a mandate from ‘god’ that most wars are waged.
Heath Ledger died yesterday. Allegedly of an overdose of drugs. While I may not be a fan of those who abuse drugs - I am not going to issue a press release condemning him to hell because he starred in Brokeback Mountain.
The Westboro Baptist Church issued a press release today, filled with crap like this:
WBC will picket this pervert’s funeral, in religious protest and warning. Heath Ledger is now in Hell and will begin serving his eternal sentence there. [source]
Yes, this is a rogue organization that routinely pulls these stunts, but they do it with Biblical quotes, on the letterhead of a “Church.”
BRIT BRIT
Oh, and Britney is back dating her papi, Adnan Ghalib. They broke up, he “sold” his story to ET for a series of weeklong interviews, and now they’re already back together and tearing things up.
Last night they sideswiped a motorcycle.
The end is near friends, the horesemen cometh.

Welcome to another beautiful day, here's what's up on air:
- Heath Ledger has died. You'll get one more chance to see him on screen, his role as The Joker in Batman: The Dark Knight for this summer has already been completed.
- Oh yeah, the Oscar nominations came down today. On my "gotta see it now" list: La Vie En Rose, Juno, There Will Be Blood and No Country For Old Men.
