Not Watching the Game? What to Do on Super Bowl Sunday
On average, 100 million people tune into the Super Bowl every year. Last year, it was estimated that 153.1 million viewers caught a portion of the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts battle for the Vince Lombardi Trophy (even if it was just to watch the halftime show). This year, fans will watch the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Green Bay Packers in Arlington, Texas on Sunday, February 6th. With so much pomp and circumstance (and profit) built around one game, it’s nearly impossible to avoid the hype and excitement. But whether or not you’re a football fan, there are plenty of ways to celebrate Super Bowl Sunday that don’t involve actually watching men in tight pants tossing around a pigskin: … More »

Jessica Simpson Detoxes, Then Gets Drunk
There are so many reasons to detox, but given Jessica Simpson’s recent post-cleanse feast and stagger episode, we doubt she’s choosing the right ones. The New York Post reported this morning that the star was seen knocking back sake at Katsuya, a Japanese restaurant in Hollywood, celebrating her first real meal in days after a detoxing cleanse. (Exactly which cleanse she was on, they don’t know, but Simpson has tweeted about her vegan detox diets in the past.) … More »

Gallery: 10 Hollywood Celebrities Who Gained Major Weight for a Movie Role
Last week we gave you 10 celebrities who lost serious weight for a movie role, which, by the way, is a practice we don’t condone. Today, we’re doing the opposite – showcasing ten Hollywood movie stars who’ve gained serious weight for a movie role (or, who are we kidding, in the hopes of nabbing an Oscar, which several of them did). Losing or gaining, we’re not into dramatic weight shifts simply for the sake of a paycheck and royalties, no matter how hefty. It’s simply not healthy, even under the care of a professional. (A few of these celebs actually have experienced lasting negative health effects from their rapid weight gain.) In the cases of most of the gents, you’ll hardly recognize them. But the funny thing is that a few of the women actually look more normal and real after having put some meat on their bones. (Obviously, they were way too skinny to begin with.) Check out our gallery of ten stars who aren’t afraid to transform themselves into slightly overweight people whom Hollywood would never cast in movies in the first place. (And see exactly how much they gained during their hardcore hunt for Oscar.) … More »
