Lindsay Lohan

How The Paparazzi Are Spending Their Paris and Lindsay-less Free Time

Paparazzi

It’s a time of reflection for those in the unauthorized celebrity picture business. With Paris now firmly behind bars for the duration of June, Lindsay drying up in a posh suite somewhere in Malibu, Nicole trying to clean up her rep in time for her day in court, Brangelina giving it out for free to shill their respective new movies, and nary a rookie Celebritard climbing the ranks, the Paparazzi have a lot of free time on their hands. I wonder what they’ll do with all that free time? I mean really, who wants to spend the summer stalking those idiot Laguna Beach kids? L.C. is hot and all, but at some point you gotta remember why you got into this business. It was to be in the trenches, literally (the ones you dug in the dirt on the Malibu Cliffside while waiting for Tom and Nicole to go to breakfast). It was not to waste your time in front of The Standard at 2:30 am on a Tuesday on the off chance Kristin Cavallari walks out in a slinky dress and boots all over Hollywood Blvd. Though I wouldn’t mind seeing that.

So while the Paparazzi anxiously await the return of their skanky meal tickets from their respective detention centers and publicist enforced club bans, I put together a list of 21 things that the papz are likely to do with all there new found free time.

Paris Hilton Crying In A Police Car; Awesome

1. Stalking Jennifer Lopez, just for old times’ sake.

2. Going to the beach. Not to enjoy the ocean, but to practice burying themselves in the sand for the upcoming celebritard bikini season.

3. Hitting the gym. The treadmill, specifically. The new breed of star is mighty quick. Gotta practice getting out of the way of speeding, bloodthirsty Mercedes’.

4. Snubbing George Clooney in public, giving the star a false sense of security, waiting two minutes, and then casually following him around for the rest of the day at a safe, seemingly harmless distance.

5. Having epiphanies about their empty soulless existence, but then ultimately deciding not to get out of Jennifer Aniston’s garbage can.

6. Banding together to heighten the tabloid intensity on Hayden Panetierre in the vein hopes she very quickly becomes the next La Lohan. TV stars make the best celebritards (Hi, Shannen Doherty!). Unfortunately, as we all know, the only person who can truly create a satisfactory is celebritard is the Celebrinator herself, Paris Hilton. And though she is truly omnipotent, not even Ms. Jailbird Hilton can skankify a perfectly respectable young girl from behind bars. She can still give the girl herpes, just not celebritardation.

7. Actually eating in the trendy restaurants they camp out at.

8. Catching up on their Netflix queue. Mel Gibson’s movie Paparazzi has been ironically sitting on their coffee table for months (it’s hard to get up the urge to watch Tom Sizemore act at night when you have to take perp walk pictures of him all day).

9. Sucking up to Harvey Leven.

10. Not returning Jessica Simpson’s publicist’s phone calls.

11. Going to rehab to kick their insatiable, life-crushing Brangelina habit. While at rehab, trying to learn Vietnamese to they can use more effective ways of getting Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt to look at their camera. Something tells me the paparazzi rehab would be about as effective as the gayhab Isiah Washington snored through during FaggotGate.

12. Continuing to bribe Lindsay Lohan’s duplicitous, picture stealing “friends”.

13. Competing in a last man standing style game of “not it!” to determine who will have the unenviable task of having to cover Rosie O’Donnell.

14. Wondering out loud why Tara Reid hasn’t stepped up to get some of the free tabloid limelight. After all, for the next month there will be a considerable dearth of “drunk celebritard falling out of a limo” pics, for which she is immensely suited for.

15. Scrapbooking.

16. Reading all the recent “Ben Affleck Is Coming Back” articles, realizing how much unwarranted hell they caused him back in the day and vowing to somehow make it up to him. Not by ever watching one of his movies, but maybe by not taking those extra forty pictures of him looking scrubby at Starbucks.

17. Recommitting themselves to capturing an illicit shot of Hillary Duff doing anything at all even remotely interesting. This might prove to be a herculean task.

18. Googling Kim Kardashian and still not understanding why her picture is worth anything.

19. Getting drunk and mischievous and sending in an order to Pink Dot for three cases of Grey Goose to be delivered to Promises Malibu under the name “Han, Lo”.

20. Weighing their options of getting out of bed to snap bikini pics of Britney Spears. On the one hand, it’s an easy shot that will sell. On the other hand, they’ll inevitably spend the night throwing up their lunch, followed be restless fever dreams of cellulite-ridden buttocks devouring tiny blue thongs, scored to Britney’s dance club hit “Toxic”. What price dignity, eh?

21. Doing what any normal person with a telephoto lens would do… taking close up, high-res pictures of their junk.

The Inevitability of a Lindsay Lohan Nipple Slip

Lindsay Lohan Nipple Slip

It was a mathematical certainty that at some point, due to how she lives her life and treats her body, we would see Lindsay Lohan’s nipples. A Lohan nip slip is quite like an irrefutable equation. A2 + B2 = C2, wherein “A” is the number of times per year Lindsay wears either a bikini or a precariously slinky ensemble, “B” is the number of pictures taken of her every day, and “C”, of course, are her nipples (and not coincidentally, her cup size). The numbers never lie. After two years of hellblazing through the LA Club scene, monopolizing tabloid pages, careening down Celebrity Train Wreck Ave. and foolishly joining the exclusive Celebrivag Display Club, Lindsay Lohan finally embraced her “C” and flashed a nipple while playing in the ocean with her latest himbo, actor Callum Blue.

What was surprising about it was how unsurprising it actually was. I called my best friend and told him about it and he didn’t even flinch. He had just assumed it had already happened (and it had, but that wasn’t a real nip slip so much as an opportune camera angle and a loose-fitting v-neck sweater). As early as three years ago a celebrity of Lindsay’s notoriety flashing her jumbly bits would have made national news. But now, with Britney showing her schnizz, Paris getting down in nightvision, and just about every Celebritard wearing a shear dress on a red carpet at some point in their 15 minutes, Lindsay’s nipples caused barely a blip in the online gossip waters. And for a lover of Celebrity T & A that saddens me.

Brad Pitt NakedI miss the days before every minute of every day was caught on film. When pictures like Brad and Gwyneth sunbathing in the nude were passed around in secret, and the possibility of a celebrity going commando and forgetting to close her legs wasn’t even a thought in our heads. I miss being shocked and amazed when a hot female celebrity showed her goods on screen. It’s gotten to the point now when it’s simply assumed that we will see every hot girl’s bathing suit area. Like it’s our inherent right to invade that privacy. Part of what’s keeping Scarlet Johansson in the limelight is her adamant refusal to just relent and whip her top off. She tantalizes us with side boob and mega-cleavage, seemingly fully aware that we males are on our tippy toes waiting for her to slip up (and slip out).

The unwritten rule is that if you choose to be a Celebritard it is your obligation to put your junk on display on multiple occasions. This is a very strict rule. I can’t think of a Celebritard who hasn’t abided the rule and shown skin at some point. Paris, Nicole, Britney, Lindsay, Kim, Anna Nicole (may she rest in peace), Kirsten, Pamela, Sienna, Paris again. The only one left is Jessica Simpson, but with those hugemongous yaboos of hers, it’s bound to happen at some point.

Like I said, it’s just inevitable. Like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. Or Nic Cage making a bad action movie every year. Some things you can count on to happen. We can now add “Lindsay Lohan flashing her nipples” to that long list of inevitability. Frankly, I’m surprised it took so long. You almost have to admire her restraint. But with jailbird Paris hogging the spotlight, Georgia Rule tanking hard at the box office and the paparazzi waging war on her, it was time to unleash the pink ladies.

So with Lindsay taken care of , I think it’s high time we look to the future and take stock of what other inevitable things are due to come true. I’ve compiled a list of inevitable events for your reading pleasure. We can cross them off together as they (inevitably) happen, and not be surprised by any of it.

CELEBRITY EVENTS THAT ARE INEVITABLE

- Nicole Ritchie will put on 10 pounds and People Magazine will immediately put her on the cover celebrating her new “curvy” body. In the story Ritchie will apologize for being a poor role model to young girls and vow to shed light on the dangers of anorexia. Upon release of the issue, Nicole will stop eating for a week, claiming she looked like “a huge fat fatty” on the cover.

Scarlet Johansson

- Scarlet Johansson will eventually show her breasts on film. We must all be patient. (Of course she’ll probably pull a Halle Berry and make us wait fifteen years to see them only to unleash them in a wickedly traumatic sex scene between her and an age-ravaged Denzel Washington. The scene will be gross times ten, but the rack will still be glorious!)

- Paris Hilton serving only four out of the 45 days of her jail term, holding a press conference proclaiming her to be a new woman, no longer the racist, vapid socialite we have come to know and not love. Three days later she’ll be seen dropping N-bombs in front of The Standard (while driving away in her brand new Bentley).

- Lost will end in 2010 without a clear answer as to where the island really is, what the hell the black smoke monster was, are they really dead, why Jack turned into such a pompous ass, why Evangeline Lilly was ever attracted to Dominic Monaghan, how Locke regained use of his legs, or who created the Dharma Group. Creators Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse will twirl their evil mustaches, close out their LARGE bank accounts and walk off into the sunset muttering one word under their breath: “suckers”.

- Keanu Reeves will win an Oscar. No joke here, this is really going to happen.

- In an attempt to court critics, Owen Wilson will cut off his glorious shag, donate the hair to charity, and go bald for a heavy psychological drama. The movie will be a disappointment, but the discarded shag will go on to serve as hut roofing for an entire African village. It will have a larger cultural impact than Luke Wilson.

- A celebritard will crash into and kill a paparazzo in a doomed attempt to flee a club. In retaliation, paparazzi will eventually run a different celebritard off the road in an incident eerily reminiscent of Princess Diana. The death of the celebritard will be far more publicized than the death of the photographer. This will create a war between celebrities and the paparazzi with Lindsay Lohan in the King Leonidas role and Harvey Leven of TMZ.com as Xerxes. Kim Kardashian will be the lone celebritard survivor; eyeless and heartbroken, she will spend the rest of her life retelling the climactic battle and honorable death of so many pampered, untalented Young Hollywooders. Miramax will buy the rights to the story and cast Ben Affleck and Matt Damon to star (they put those guys in everything).

- Brett Ratner will direct a critically acclaimed movie. The world will be shocked. As he walks to the podium to collect his Best Director Oscar his body will shake uncontrollably and suddenly burst into flames. It will be revealed that Ratner was really a robot, controlled by an evil genius. That man? Woody Allen

- A very confused eight year-old will stick a pin in Jennifer Lopez’s ass, assuming it’s a very large set of denim balloons. In an odd twist of events, J.Lo’s ass will actually burst sending the diva flying through the air like a deflated balloon. An enterprising children’s book author will subsequently pen a horribly misguided sequel to the beloved book “The Red Balloon”.

Fat Val Kilmer

- Val Kilmer will continue to gain weight, eventually reaching the size of his former nemesis, Marlon Brando. He will tragically die after he comes upon an uneaten two-day old Subway party sub filled with all the trimmings and proclaim “I’m your huckleberry”. In response, Kurt Russell will hold a press conference, calling out the Subway chain for their negligence. As official spokesperson Jared flees in terror Kurt will yell: “Tell all the Subway execs the law is comin! You tell them I’m coming… and hell’s coming with me!”

- Renee Zellweger, under increasing social pressure, will get a face-lift to alleviate her bitch face. Her subsequent surgically enhanced look will turn out to be the most startlingly beautiful face ever seen on a human. Even Angelina Jolie will weep from its splendor. Her bitter face was actually shielding her awe-inspiring perfection from a society not ready to face such a vision. Renee will dub her new look “Magnum”. But really, I shouldn’t even be talking about it; we’re nowhere near ready to see it.

- On her eighteenth birthday pre-approved hottie and resident hero, Hayden Panetierre, will begin her slow descent into then world of Celebritardism. Within a year she’ll have driven drunk after a night of partying at Hyde, lost twenty pounds but still kept her boobs, gotten married in Vegas to a D-list boytoy (only to have it annulled within six months, Shannen Doherty-style), and fired from Heroes after one to many late arrivals and an odd pattern of showing up pale on Mondays, tan on Wednesdays and orange on Fridays. The show will hire Brittany Snow as her replacement and the ratings immediately improve. Tiffani Amber-Thiessen will call Brittany for a ceremonial passing of the torch. Peter Petrelli will silently weep in a corner.

- George Clooney will settle down and have kids with a moderately attractive non-famous woman. He will become a wonderfully loving, if slightly pudgy, Soccer Dad. Women across the world will simultaneously break out in tears. This will result in the largest man-made flood in human existence, wiping out half the Eastern seaboard and plunging all of Africa into the Indian Ocean. Historians will call this disaster “The Clooney Catastrophe”. Miramax will buy the rights to the story and cast Ben Affleck and Matt Damon to star (they put those guys in everything).

- Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt will grow up to be surprisingly plain. Her abs will be nothing to shake a stick at and her lips will be disappointingly thin. She will have zero charisma and end up a dental assistant for a sub-standard HMO. Suri Cruise will grow up to be a well-respected Cantor for a prominent Jewish Synagogue. Britney Spears’s two kids will grow up to be Cheetos.

Celebrity Tax Deductions

Paris HiltonIn honor of the most hectic day of the year for crazy, on-the-VT-edge postal workers (too soon?), I dug through the garbage bins of the Beverly Hills branch of H & R Block and found a slew of Celebrity Tax Forms. I’m ommitted a lot of the information (such as Paris Hilton listing her occupation as “princess”), but I will reveal some of the more, shall we say, ludicrous things that celebrities try to deduct on their taxes. You’d think for the all the money they make and free schwag they’re given that they wouldn’t need to even itemize their deductions, but apparently stars are just as stingy as us plebes.

Enjoy the list, and make sure to get that envelope post-dated. You do not want to end up sharing a cell with Joe Francis (I hear he cries himself to sleep, but that’s what happens when you have an extremely painful level 10 strain of genital herpes and no soul).

2006 Celebrity Tax Deductions:

Lindsay Lohan: $14,000 for crotch extinguishers

Helen Hunt: $9,000 for forehead wax (and it’s put to good use)

Simon Cowell: $3000 for super-tight, v-necked black t-shirts, and $5500 for being forced to fill out such a goddawful form (he wrote in the margin “What? Is? This? This form is cabaret. It’s the worst form I have ever filled out. Other door.”)

Matthew McConaughey: $62,420 for acting-enhancing supplements (note: this is code for “weed”)

Shia LaBeouf: $100,000 in unmarked, small denomination bills, used as bribery money to the head of DreamWorks Pictures.

Mel Gibson: $50,000 charitable donation to the Museum of Tolerance (I call shenanigans on this one. Attention IRS, this is tax fraud.)

Renee Zellweger: $5,000 for face scrunch upkeep (a job-related write-off)

Nicole Ritchie eating a hot dogNicole Richie: $7.50 for food-related costs (she went to In-N-Out one time in June last year)

Katie Holmes: No deductions, but did attach a Scientology Center-emblazoned post-it note that read “I’ll give you anything you want, just come save me. Please…”

James Caviziel: TOTAL WRITE-OFF (after all, he is the Jesus!)

Britney Spears: Audited for deducting $50,000 for “bikini waxes”. The IRS eventually dropped the audit, sent her $50 bucks, and told her to buy some underwear and never bother them again.

Jon Mayer: $1 Million US government-sanctioned payout for keeping Jessica Simpson out of the limelight (this is worth its weight in whiny white boy angst music gold)

Scarlet Johansson: $4,000,000 deduction for the time spent doing sexy photo shoots that resulted in 13 million “first sexual experiences” by our nation’s male children.

Morgan Freeman: $11,000 for narration-related expenses.

Keifer Sutherland: Deep into a drunken rage (otherwise known as Tuesday), Kiefer went straight down to the Federal office, shot 17 IRS agents, defused 6 nuclear weapons, and demanded a $1,000,000 tax refund. The IRS gave him $2,000,000 and backed away very slowly.

Barry Bonds: Attempted to deduct $700,000 in miscellaneous job related deductions. The IRS told him to go fuck himself and to “buy some bigger hats, roid head” (the IRS are Dodgers fans, as they should be).

Owen Wilson: $17050.22 for blonde shag upkeep, $26,540 for collected Butterscotch Stallion costs (mostly just more butterscotch)

Keanu ReevesEd Norton: $800 billion deduction for illegal, untested steroids to get into proper shape to play the Incredible Hulk. Apparently, as smart as he is, he didn’t realize the Hulk would be in CGI. Norton just assumed Eric Bana was that ripped (This isn’t so hard to believe).

Keanu Reeves: Deducted Eleventy Billion Dollars for entertainment services rendered.

Why William Shatner Kicks Ass.

A few weeks back I was asked to review the DVD for the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner, and without even thinking about it I said yes. And why not? Shatner kicks ass, I dig watching roasts (although they jumped the shark with Pam Anderson last year), and after all, it was a free DVD. So it arrived in the mail and I dutifully sat down to watch it. And I got some good laughs out of it. Jason Alexander was alarmingly unfunny, further enhancing the belief that he stole his entire George Costanza routine from Larry David and that beyond acting like a weasel in “Julia Roberts is a Whore” movies he doesn’t have much to offer the world. Farrah Fawcett was a train wreck of Bald Britney proportions (which was sad for all the desperate comics up on the dais who kept saying they used to masturbate to her and are now horrified at what she’s become. I say guys, welcome to the Lindsay Lohan era. Call me when she unleashes her Farrahcrotch.). And a good number of the roasters had funny stuff to say about each other and about Shatner (Kevin Pollack excluded, of course. I hadn’t remembered how unfunny he is. Maybe Jessip was right to take a cheap shot at Lt. Weinberg.).

A few days later I sat down to do some research about Shatner before writing the piece, and had a revelation. I don’t know anything about the man. Not only that, but I have never seen an episode of Star Trek: The Original Series. I’ve also never seen an episode of T.J. Hooker or Barnaby Coast. And while I’ve probably sat in front of the television while Rescue: 911 was on, I was either too little to remember it or I was busy playing with Ultimate Warrior action figures and couldn’t be bothered with the Ham Actor on the TV with a Jersey rat on his head. All I really know Shatner from is a few of the Trek movies (I liked the whale one, but for reasons that had less to do with Shatner and more to do with the scene where Bones hands a pill to an old woman begging for a new liver in a hospital and says “Grow a new one!”), The Practice / Boston Legal, National Lampoon’s Loaded Weapon 1, Miss Congeniality and an occasional Star Trek spoof. I know him more because of his status as a pop culture icon, than because I’ve taken the time to bask in his onscreen Shatnerness.

And this bothered me as a geek. How is it that I’ve come to admire Shatner for his unique “style” of acting and general air of awesomeness, without actually partaking in the very shows that birthed said style and air? Am I allowed to like William Shatner if I don’t like Star Trek? If I’ve never read TekWar? If I don’t know how to do the Vulcan Death Grip? If I’d rather hear him say “Denny Crane” than “Captain’s Log…”? If whenever I do an impression of him it’s always the one Jim Carrey does in Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (There’s…. somethingonthewing. Some… THING!)? What is the protocol for enjoying and appreciating William Shatner?

I pondered that question for a while. This post is actually three days late because I needed an answer to that question before I could defend writing about him to myself. You’ll notice I don’t write about things I don’t know, and apparently, I don’t know shit about Shatner. But then earlier today while rewatching the Roast it hit me. I don’t know Star Trek and I still dig Captain Kirk. I watch the YouTube clips of him singing Rocket Man and I get why it’s funny. I watch the Priceline commercials and actually pay attention to what he’s saying. I watch that infamous SNL skit where he tells the nerds to get a life and I inherently understand what’s going on. When William Shatner comes on-screen I immediately sit up in my seat and start cracking a smile. Because I get the joke. Because he gets the joke.

And that’s why he’s William Shatner. And it’s why he has been a beloved pop culture icon for going on 40 years.

It doesn’t matter where you came into his career, he’s gonna seduce you anyway. Whether you’re 18 and first saw him as the Big Giant Head on 3rd Rock From The Sun. Or you’re a 16 year-old girl and first enjoyed the Shatner single-handedly pulling the albatross Miss Congeniality from the depths of later career Bullockian mediocrity. Or you are much much older, never cared for Science Fiction but saw him on the Twilight Zone, or on Hooker or you saw him on Broadway. It doesn’t matter. Shatner will get you. He gets everyone.

Who doesn’t love William Shatner? Sure, everyone can agree he’s not the best actor in town. But he’s also surely not the worst. After all, the man has won two Emmy’s and a Golden Globe in the last three years. And he’s had a career for four decades. This is akin to my “Keanu Reeves Doesn’t Suck” theory. You can’t have an extensive career in Hollywood if you suck. You just can’t. So what’s to explain Keanu toplining movies for 20 years? Or Shatner being relevant and consistently working for 40? You just cannot deny that people of this ilk have something that people want. Shatner not only knows what you want, he’s more than willing to goof on himself to give it to you. He’s cultivated the Shatner image over time, and unlike certain actors who are associated with iconic characters yet shun their fans (ahem, Han Solo), Shatner embraces his place in the cultural lexicon. He swims just fine in those waters.

He’s in on the joke. That’s the reason he’s still around. And it’s the reason I love him despite not ever having seen a second of his most famous work. And that’s the reason I was finally able to write this post.

More actors need to embrace the persona they create in the media, instead of begrudging it. Why is Meg Ryan irrelevant today? Because she turned her back on the label of “America’s Sweetheart” and tried to convince us she could do big drama. But we don’t care to see her doing that. Ditto Jim Carrey. Look at Sylvester Stallone who finally came to grips with his place in the world (he will forever be Rocky Balboa) and is now experiencing a rebirth in the public eye. Or Billy Zabka, who just directed a hilarious music video based around his Johnny character from Karate Kid twenty years later. He gets that he’ll always be the guy who swept the leg and he’s cool with it. And we are so very cool with him, and happy to have him back. When celebrities embrace that which made them celebrities in the first place, we are obliged to love them more. Shatner knows this and that’s why he rules so hard, more than 40 years after he first began his voyages on the Starship Enterprise.

I recommend everyone go out, pick up his Roast on DVD, and spend some time thinking about why you dig Shatner so much. It’ll be worth your time.

A few more quick thoughts on some of the Roasters:

Andy Dick: We find you funny when you’re grabbing Pam Anderson’s boobs or getting hauled off the Jimmy Kimmel show, not when you’re doing shtick. So less with the talking and more with the crazy drunken Carrie Fisher face-licking and widespread celebrity herpes transportation.

Patton Oswalt: Had the best joke of the night. He pulled out a paper bag and said to Shatner “Can you settle a bet between my friends and act your way out of this”.

Fred Willard: When did he start being thought of as an insult comic? I’m confused. Isn’t he supposed to be ironic funny, not funny funny? Can we get a ruling on this?

Lisa Lampanelli: She’ll never get her own sitcom or movie, but she may be the funniest comedian per capita in the business.

Artie Lange: I may not have liked you on Mad TV. Or liked your movie Beer League. Or ever cared to watch Boat Trip. But for giving me a new, awesome way to say “Whores” (pronounced “Who-ers”) I will love your comedy forever. Now start eating some salads before you pull a Chris Farley and your tombstone reads: “Here lies that drunk fat guy from the Stern show”, instead of “Here lies that drunk guy from the Stern show”.

The 300 Workout As Designed For Celebritards

300 PosterThere are many great things about the movie 300. The stunning digital cinematography. The slo-mo shots of bloody, epic carnage. Gerard Butler stealing Sean Connery’s trick of playing all his characters with a Scottish accent. Lena Headey’s boobs. But what most people are focused on are the utterly yoked out bodies of the Spartan warriors. Ripped, shredded, ridonkulously pumped, call it what you will, those boys were in wicked good shape. They got that way through a training regimen called, coincidentally, the “300 Reps Workout”. The workout (created by Mark Twight, at his gym Gym Jones) was designed to not just help the actors mimic the bodies of the Spartan warriors, but to actually become them.


This is the workout as it was first reported:

- 25 pull ups
- 50 deadlifts
- 50 push ups (sometimes on gymnastics rings)
- 50 jumps onto a 24-inch box
- 50 tire drags (dragging a huge tire attached to your waist across the room and back)
- 50 single-arm clean-and-presses using a 36-pound kettlebell
- 25 pull ups.

The cast trained to be able to that workout several times a week at heightened levels of speed and intensity. If you can do that workout in under twenty minutes, you are well on your way to looking like King Leonidas.

So everyone is freaking out over this new workout, declaring it to be THE new “in” training method. But little do “they” know that this workout has been around in the top circles of Hollywood for some time now. It’s used for training the manliest of men, but when it was first developed, it was designed for the Young Hollywood tabloid crowd. Yes it’s true; the Spartan training method was first updated to prime the bodies of the dastardliest warriors of our time, the Celebritards. The likes of Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchie, Lindsay Lohan and former pioneer of the method, Ms. Britney Spears, were the first to successfully complete what has since been dubbed the “300 Clubs Workout”.

TheJay.com was able to uncover the official training regiment needed to become a 300 Celebritard Warrior. If you aspire to be like the most well-known, least respected skazz Hollywood has to offer, simply complete the follow exercises and you will be on your way to suffering from “exhaustion” and gunning over photographers outside of Hyde.

The Official “300 Clubs Workout”:

- 25 Blackberry Thumb Ups
- 50 Melodramatic Sidekick Texts
- 50 Limo Door Bends (sometimes in six-inch heels)
- 50 Jumps Onto A Slippery Club Table
- 50 Papz Drags (dragging an US Weekly paparazzi attached to your Bentley across a parking lot and back)
- 50 Single-Arm Drink Lifts using a Grey Goose Vodka & Red Bull
- 25 Blackberry Thumb Ups

Paris and Kim textingParis can do the workout in twenty-two minutes flat. Lindsay has been known to complete two sets back-to-back at twenty-five minutes a piece. Nicole can do the circuit in twenty-one minutes, but she substitutes 50 Dry Heaves for the 50 Single-Arm Drink Lifts. And at her peak, Britney could do the “300 Clubs Workout” in under eighteen minutes. She was a true prodigy!

Here are some super secret celebritard testimonials on the merits of the “300 Clubs Workout”.

Nicole Ritchie – The “300 Clubs Workout” helped to finally get rid of those pesky ethics that normal Celebritard workouts just wouldn’t get rid of.

Kim Kardashian – When I first started out in Hollywood, I was a nobody. Sure I slutted around in mini-skirts and banged my share of low-rent Direct-To-Video producers, but I just wasn’t getting the type of exposure I was looking for. But after transforming myself through the “300 Clubs Workout” I went from ineffectual Paris Hilton plus one, to starring in my very own “fake” publicity-garnering sex tape and getting stalked by the best of the B-list paparazzi. The workout was totally worth giving up my sense of self-worth!

Kimberly Stewart – I couldn’t do the workout. I’m not shitty enough to be a Celebritard, I’m just a waste of space.

Sienna Miller – A lot of people think the reason I’m famous is because I dress like a cheap Carrie Bradshaw, show my tits to anyone with a digital camera and pay magazines to hype my never-before-seen reservoirs of acting talent. But the real truth is my utter devotion to the “300 Clubs Workout”. I would never have been able to convince Jude Law to disrespect himself by shacking up with a no name Tard-In-Training if I didn’t have the loose morals and voracious sexual appetite common to coke whores that I gained by completing the “300 Clubs Workout”. If you want to be known forever as merely “a person famous for being in a relationship with a celebrity, and who also happens to be in a bunch of movies where you show your boobs and hump the whiny Darth Vader” than this workout is for you!

Lindsay Lohan DrivingParis Hilton – The “300 Clubs Workout” is the reason I am the most highly-regarded Celebritard in the entire world! That’s hot!

Tara Reid – Oh yeah, I used to do the “300 Clubs Workout”, but then I found something better. I call it the “300 Botched Plastic Surgeries”. It has done wonders for my career. Can you put down that I’m available for Sweet Sixteen’s and Bar Mitzvah’s? But only if they have an open bar. I’m thinking of going back in training. Thanks!

Lindsay Lohan – Celebritard? THIS! IS! FIRECROTCH!

Things Overheard on the Razzies Red Carpet…

As a fun little endcap to all the pro-Oscars, pro-creativity, yay! Hollywood nonsense, here’s a little look at the flipside of awards season. It’s the Golden Raspberry Awards; the only award that no one in Hollywood ever wants, but so many TOTALLY deserve. I figured turnabout is fair game, so here’s a little something I like to call:

Things Overheard on the Razzies Red Carpet…

Sharon StoneMarlon Wayans: I suck!

Shawn Wayans: Double-down on the Wayans Brothers suckage!

Kelly Ripa Gets Botox On Live TV And Other Odd Celebrity Practices

kelly ripaI just read on PopWatch that Kelly Ripa is planning on airing her first Botox injection live on Regis & Kelly. While the EW.com is adamant against watching her to do this, I say what day does it air? I’ve always been intrigued by the inane and sometimes arcane things celebrities will do to make themselves younger, thinner and prettier. We always hear rumors about wacky beauty regiments, oddball diets (like Billy Bob only eating things that are orange), and other more absurd personal lifestyle practices (hello, gerbil). I commend Ripa for leading the charge in documenting her desperate attempt to remain Couric-style perky for another decade or so.

It may not get me to watch her show (Regis’s steadfast refusal to decompose like a good little corpse has become more frustrating than its worth), but it has got me thinking what other odd celebrity practices I’d like to see live on the air.

Maybe something like…

- Donald Trump combing his hair on the next episode of The Apprentice.

- Isaiah Washington doing anything on any episode of any show on The Logo.

- Ryan Seacrest flat-ironing his hair and practicing “Simon Sucks!” insults into a mirror before an episode of American Idol.

- Oprah Winfrey burning piles of cash on her show just for funsies (btw, Happy Birthday Oprah! Please don’t sue me!).

- Orlando Bloom talking about his “process” on Inside the Actor’s Studio (and James Lipton subsequently falling asleep).

- Barbara Walters unlatching her jaw and swallowing Rosie O’Donnell whole on The View.

- Owen Wilson showing off his, ahem, “Butterscotching” skills, on Conan.

- Sharon Stone searing the flesh off of Sudanese refugee babies to make the cream for her daily anti-mummification skin peel, done for a beauty segment on The Tyra Banks Show.

- Lindsay Lohan high-kicking on The Insider. Oh wait, I already saw that…

- Sylvester Stallone rubbing HGH cream on his old man thighs during a training montage of an episode of The Contender.

- Nicole Ritchie and The Olsen Twins eating lunch on Emeril.

- Nicole Ritchie and The Olsen Twins “working off” their lunch on NBC’s The Biggest Loser.

- Charlie Sheen chatting with hookers online for G4’s Tech TV.

- Tara Reid’s routine Sunday morning walk of shame on Entertainment Tonight.

- Jennifer Aniston getting her nose done on Mtv’s “I Want A Famous Face!”: Angelina Jolie Edition.
