- BE AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION…IN BED: Elasun Condoms is running an Olympics-themed ad campaign depicting condoms in different sports. Not sure if this was meant to target the athletes, who were probably non-stop “toning” each other’s bodies in the Olympic Village, or to make us regular folk think that these condoms have the strength of a world-class athlete. (Adland)
- NOW WE’LL SEE WHO’S A DOUCHE: Michael Phelps is hosting the season premiere of SNL. Do you think they’ll do a Penelope sketch where she tries to one-up Phelps by telling him she won 9 medals? Or will Phelps get blown up by MacGruber? (Just Jared)
- HE WAS JUST TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM THAT BULLY CLIFF: Top Chef pipsqueak and foam connoisseur, Marcel Vigneron, was arrested for speeding and “erratic” driving in Laguna Beach. Can’t a little guy drive with reckless abandon, letting the wind blow through his Wolverine-like hair, in defiance of any who might dare wrestle him to the ground and shave said hair??? (Defamer)
- HEIDI’S VIDEO, DRAFT 2: Heidi Montag’s video has resurfaced after her apology for the “screwed-up” version yesterday, and this time it’s 4 minutes as opposed to 10, and the speed problem has been fixed. But, her lip syncing is STILL way off and it looks like she herself did the Quicktime conversion and tried to upload it, despite the fact she hired actual professionals to do this for her. I don’t understand, you make $65,000 per Hills episode, and you can’t afford to pay a college student to convert a video for the web??? [Nerd rant = over. As you were.] (Mollygood)
- NORM BACK-DONALD: Norm Macdonald perplexed/delighted/infuriated/confused/
bombed/killed at the Bob Saget Roast, and last night he made some solid jokes on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno…can we call it a comeback? (Videogum)
