Sloppy Seconds: What? You Didn't Know Barack Obama and Brad Pitt Were Cousins?

Posted by Emily Farris

Why pay thousands of dollars for a naked picture of French First Lady Carla Bruni when you can see it on The Internets for free?

Actress Kate Beckinsale would rather eat vagina than sushi. "At least a vagina would be warm."

Chelsea Clinton wants you to know that Monica Lewinsky is none of your business! So stop asking questions about it.

Also none of your business? The ending of the upcoming "Sex and the City" movie, at least until it hits theaters in the US, according to its star Sarah Jessica Parker.  

Do you have a workplace bully? Or are you one? Workplace bullying might be worse than sexual harassment!  

Someone with far too much time on his or her hands traced the Democratic candidates' ancestry and has decided that Barack Obama is related to Brad Pitt, The George Bushes, Gerald R. Ford, Lyndon B. Johnson, Harry S. Truman, and James Madison. And if Obama is related to Pitt, then Hillary Clinton has to be related to Angelina Jolie, Celine Dion, Alanis Morissette, Jack Kerouac and Camilla Parker-Bowles. Um, yeah.
