Biden Had Botox!

The Washington Post reported yesterday that Joe Biden (D – VP Elect) is looking a little different… The lines on his forehead are less defined than they were last July.

“Barry Cohen, a Rockville plastic surgeon, is more blunt. “He clearly has had Botox,” the doctor, a Republican, told us. “The lines are gone on his forehead. There is no way makeup or surgery could do that.” Georgetown spa owner Erwin Gomez, who knows his way around some of D.C.’s most scrupulously groomed faces, agrees: “On the right and the left temple, you can see the lines, but he has no wrinkles in the forehead.” [Washington Post]

Damn! Even our politicians get Botox! What is this world coming to. That stuff doesn’t last long, so he’ll probably be lookin’ old by inauguration. Oh and P.S., notice the guy who said he clearly had the ‘Tox… Republican. Just putting that out there. You know, for your thoughts.

New Twilight Movie Poster… Meh?

I know I’m a couple days late with this but here’s the new Twilight movie poster. Why is it impossible for them to make Edward look like a dreamy vampire? Robert Pattison is a hottie yet in all these posters he looks like he’s got a stick up his ass, and he’s in such an awkward position its just weird. Not that they need posters to help with the marketing of this movie, since 95% of teenagers/young women/moms are counting down to its release by the second.

The track listing for the soundtrack also came out. Check it out after the jump.

This Might Not Suck.

Fox to remake the British comedy Absolutely Fabulous. The U.S. rendition of “Ab Fab” will be transplanted to L.A. but retain the basic template of the original, revolving around the friendship of two boozy, over-40 best friends who are desperate to stay hip and youthful and who carry on under the disapproving eye of Edina’s teenage daughter, Saffy. [Variety] Executive producer of Arrested Development, Mitch Hurwitz is involved in the project, so hopefully it won’t be as awful as anticipated.

In other news, The Riches was canceled. In case you care? I know I’m heartbroken. I forgot what that show was about. I remember thieves with many accents? Gypsies? Lots of money hidden in a Winnie? Eddie Izzard?

Kath & Kim Getting Poor Reviews

NBC’s comedy line ups have been the only thing keeping them alive in the past couple of TV seasons. With 30 Rock and The Office quickly becoming cult classics, I couldn’t wait to jump on board with Kath & Kim, their latest comedy installment. Then I started reading the reviews.

K&K is based on an Australian comedy of the same title, about a mom and daughter moving back in together. Selma Blair plays Kim, full grown daughter just divorced, Molly Shannon plays Kath, mom hairdresser. They are classic American white-trash, and apparently this doesn’t translate as well into the series as I thought it might.

Entertainment Weekly gives it a C-, saying “the core problem with K&K is that there’s no character to root for.” [EW]

Variety says K&K is “snide but not smart…will likely leave American audiences scratching their heads.” [Variety]

My Favorite Governor, Wrestler, Actor, Badass

Jesse Ventura has signed on to host a reality show on truTV about investigating conspiracy theories. Ventura, formerly a well known professional wrestler, also the former governor of Minnesota will take producing credits as well.

“It will feature Ventura … traveling to various locales to hear out the claims of skeptics and adherents to a particular conspiracy theory, after which he’ll render a verdict on the alleged phenomenon’s veracity.” [Variety]

I just have one question, what can’t this man pull off??
