“…and she’s a best selling novelist…

Pamela Anderson. This is how she was introduced on Ellen today. Um, excuse me? Correct me if I’m wrong, but this is the same woman who was in Stripperella, Baywatch and Playboy. Given this resume I had to find out a little more about this “best selling” book.

“Star” by Pamela Anderson.
Description: Playful, bawdy, and curl-your-toes sexy, Star is a breathless romp through tinseltown and tabloids.

According to Amazon.com “Customer’s who bought this book also bought, “How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale” By Jenna Jameson. I’m still laughing….

“The Holy Bible” Amazon.com Sales Rank: #1,665
“Star” Amazon.com Sales Rank: #8,856
“War and Peace” Amazon.com Sales Rank: #10,021


Talk about a “Pandora’s” Box!

For those of you who don’t get the reference that was the name of tonight’s episode of Alias.

As with all of J.J. Abrams’ shows I have more and more questions and am very intrigued about the two Sloane’s, how Vaughn is going to get back in the CIA, will Nadia and Weiss ever hook up.... Plus, I’m trying to remember why Nadia was given up in the first place.

Why would you watch this live?

Of course I am referring to the American Idol results show. To begin with, the fact that this was changed back to an hour is beyond preposterous. All I care about is who gets das boot. I don’t want to see them sing together and incidentally I don’t want the loser to sing at the end either. Now that it’s an hour I had to see the bottom three sing all over again, c’mon! You sucked, go home, game over!

We had to endure a recap of the daily schedule and more one on one interviews where the idols have NOTHING interesting to say and some of them and by that I mean Scott can barely speak the English language. I was hoping to never hear Mikalah Gordon’s voice again, but alas….

Just a friendly tip, using my friend Tivo (or for those of you stuck in the 80s your VCR) you can run through this in oh, approximately 15 minutes. Plus you should really spend your time watching Alias.

SPOILER ALERT for those who don’t know the results yet…

Questions that I have:

1. Who is voting for Scott? Seriously who are you? Own up!

2. If there is a stylist on the show why does Scott always look so bad? In one clip he was wearing a sweat suit. Plus Constantine could have at least showered.

3. Has Federov gained like a 100 pounds since he started this contest?

I was sad to see Nadia go as I’ll miss her hair, not the Mohawk as much as the earmuffs/Princess Leah look. However it’s nice to see that chivalry is not dead. Did you see Seacrest give Nadia his tie to wipe away the tears?

I did not catch "Stacked" simply b/c I feel badly for Christopher Lloyd. The man goes from Taxi, To Back to the Future, to some "hallmark esque/lifetime movies" to STACKED! I'm not sure if it's worse if people watch and it stays on the air or worse that it gets cancelled and he becomes an official has been. I think this is going the way of North Shore (which I kinda liked btw) and Point Pleasant.

Given all that I'm sure I'll watch it at some point.

Stay tuned big night tonight..O.C. and Apprentice.

how can i take seriously the opinions of a so-called "television expert" who doesn't even watch 24 yet continues to watch ER after even the stars got bored and left?

Maybe you should stick with reading. May I suggest a wonderful novel by Leon Uris...QBVII. It's a courtroom drama you know.
