Is the Gray Lady ready for her close-up? It was announced today that Lifetime is aiming to bring the paper's Modern Love column to the small screen (something that HBO was talking about doing years ago). more ›

In what appears to be the work of a hacker, Silicon Alley Insider reports that the Fox News Twitter account recently posted the following "tweet": "Breaking: Bill O Riley is gay". While the link itself has already been taken down, a quick trip over to O'Reilly's home page reveals some possibly related clues. In the "O'Links Around the World" section, the top link earlier was "New York Times Writer Admits to Being a Sex Addict," which forwarded readers to this week's Modern Love column, which dealt with the casual encounters of a young gay man. Then in the backstage video posted on the site, O'Reilly responds to a viewer's inquiry saying that there is a "zero percent" chance of seeing Richard Simmons on his show. Why, you ask? "The short pants? it just doesn't work on the Factor. Short pants—it frightens me." While O'Reilly himself doesn't appear to post updates on Twitter, here's a list of the almost 70 feeds coming from NY Times staff members—most, if not all of whom have not been hit with graphic sexual harassment suits. more ›

This past week, the big wedding wasn't even real! According to the many paparazzi photographs of the Sex & the City movie filming, it seems that Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw is finally stepping down the aisle. With, we assume, Mr. Big. The wedding between the fictional sex columnist-turned-author and the rich business guy (it's never been totally clear what Big does, except smirk and show up at the right and wrong times) took place at St. Patrick's Cathedral. The bride wore Vivienne Westwood, her bridesmaids did not wear matching bridesmaid gowns. We'll know more when the movie comes out next year. more ›

There is a very crazy story about a nasty split between self-proclaimed "entertaining guru" Jennifer Rubell and her boyfriend Daniel Kim. Rubell, whose website describes her as "writer, renowned hostess, hotelier, Harvard grad and member of the illustrious Rubell clan," filed for custody of their 14 month old daughter (named Stevie, after Uncle Steve of Studio 54) because Kim has become, well, crazy. Kim has allegedly become "verbally abusive," tried to pressure her into letting him film or photograph her during sex, leaves the room when she tries to talk to him (he rather email), put a surveillance camera in the house and left a threat, "You have been warned."

...He "thinks nothing of taking days at a time to shop for clothes, or spending countless hours trying on the clothes he has bought and figuring out what he should keep." He also spends "countless hours on the phone dialing in to listen to broadcasts of board meetings" of companies in which he owns stock, the filing says. more ›
