BWE EXCLUSIVE: Lindsay’s Partying Pal Reacts To Lindsay’s SECOND Rehab Stint!

bgastineau.JPGED. NOTE – Today your beloved BWE.tv is dipping its toes into the shark-infested waters of exclusive celebrity gossip. So instead of just ridiculing all the absurd tabloid news that’s already out there, we’ll actually be creating it ourselves with the help of our new Celebrity Action News Reporter David Caplan. David joins us from Star Magazine, and will be bringing you daily updates of the latest, hottest, juciest, sexiest, gossipiest gossip he manages to round up.

Young Hollywood is abuzz over reports that naughty-by-nature Lindsay Lohan has entered rehab — again! Among the rehabbed starlet’s friends who are encouraged by LiLo’s admission to Promises rehab in Malibu, Calif., is her partying pal Brittny Gastineau.

In an exclusive interview with BWE.tv on Monday afternoon, just hours after Lindsay checked herself into Promises, Brittny, 24, said she supports Lindsay’s decision. “I think she should do whatever is going to make her happy,” Brittny exclusively told us, “She should do what’s good for her. If she thinks she should go into rehab, then she shoud do it. It’s about her needs: Not the people around her, like managers and lawyers. It really is whatever is best for her. Obviously it’s a good move. I wish her well.”

And while the chattering classes are buzzing that Lindsay’s days as a hot star are numbered, thanks to her alcohol-induced antics, the Gastineau Girls star begs to differ. “Of course, she’ll be fine,” said Brittny. “Everyone has their ups and downs.”

And Brittny is no stranger to Lindsay’s nocturnal activities: She and Lindsay spent last Christmas Eve at Manhattan’s Lotus nightclub, but Lindsay, who was attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings at the time, didn’t drink. In fact, when watermelon martini shots and a bottle of vodka were sent to her table, Lindsay passed.

BWE EXCLUSIVE: The Armpit Interview

armpit.JPGOn Tuesday, I created a Celebrity Math where some Chris Klein, Salty Aroma, and Knut equaled an adorable Suri Cruise, posted it to this darling blog, and went about my daily business. Two hours later, I received an e-mail with the subject line “THAT IS MY ARMPIT!” Armpit? Who? Tom Cruise? Dad? Where am I? Upon further inspection it became clear that the armpit in question was from the photo used to describe “salty aroma”. A young man, his pit fully splayed and sniffed in a very scientific manner. Little did I know I was dealing with Christopher Maute, who might officially have the most famous armpit on the internet, and possibly of all-time.

Google “armpit”, and you’ll see Chris on the first page. Read an article in a Macedonian Newspaper, and you’ll see Chris. Go to any scientific lecture on the effects of body odor, and chances are, there his picture will be.

Knowing a scoop when I smell one (har), I couldn’t let greatness slide right through my fingers. So I am please to bring you an interview with Mr. Maute — the story behind the most famous armpit picture on the internet, the stress that comes along with the fame, and specifically, what Italian men smell like. Enjoy.

First of all, thanks so much for agreeing to this interview. There is so much the world needs to know about you.

If only that were really true, but a boy can dream.

armpit 3.JPGA picture of a man smelling your armpit has become one of the top hits on Google Image when searching for “armpit.” How did the picture come to be?

Well, in addition to working in a lab, I am also occasionally a participant in some of the studies.

This picture is a confluence of two events:

Firstly, there is a lab that sometimes need ‘donors’ of body odors and I happen to be a particularly effective source. (Did I mention I’m Italian?) Secondly, my lab does research dealing with the disgust response. With this as the backdrop, my boss needed a photo of a genuine disgust look.

The interview continues after the jump!! Learn about the downside to have the most famous pits around…

BWE-xclusive: Most Appropriate Ad Campaign Ever

WINEHOUSE TOILET.JPG

When we first inspected the following photo sent to us, we weren’t really sure what the big deal was. At first glance, it looks like a billboard for the new Amy Winehouse CD. But take a closer look. That’s not a billboard… it’s a port-o-potty. Spotted at this weekend’s AIDS Walk in New York. And you know, for a young starlet riddled with rumors of crystal meth abuse, whose sultry voice belies a toothless mouth, advertising on a portable latrine seems more than a little bit appropriate. And now, we’re going to kick ourselves for not dropping an Amy Outhouse joke. (With thanks to Gabe Liedman for the pic!)

BWE Exclusive: Jared Fogle, The Pornography Guy

JARED FOGLE PORN GUY1.JPGYou’ve come to know and love him as Jared Fogle, the guy who lost over 200 pounds by eating nothing but Subway sandwiches alone. As a result, he went from being just plain ol’ “Jared” to the much more exciting “Jared Fogle, the Subway Guy.”

Well, it turns out in college, the All-American Jared was known for something entirely different. According to our source, while studying at Indiana University, Fogle ran a very successful pornography rental company out of his bedroom. His porn collection was vast and extensive, and Fogle took his business pretty seriously. A video would run a patron a dollar a day (cheap!), and people would come from all over to take advantage of the deal. Needless to say, Jared had enough porn to keep his customers happy.

As far as his incredible weight loss goes, it turns out it wasn’t as motivated as you would think. In fact, what got Jared hooked on Subway in the first place was laziness. The sandwich chain had opened a branch on the first floor of Jared’s dorm, and what with his busy porn company, Jared began eating the sandwiches out of extreme laziness. It was the closest fast food available! Just imagine how different our lives would be if an Arby’s had opened up there instead? We’d probably be watching Jared on some TLC special about how he hasn’t gotten out of bed for 6 years. Though, we imagine his right arm would still be in tip-top shape.
