RuPaul crowned Raja America’s Next Drag Superstar one week ago, and last night found Ru bringing the season’s 13 queens back together for the requisite reunion. “Tonight on RuPaul’s Drag Race: Reunited!” our palatable host thundered at the beginning of the episode, “our 13 drag warriors return to battle it out, set the record straight, and let each other have it.” Or to get more to the point, Ru added: “The Drag Race may be over, but the real drama is just getting started.” It was an often funny, not-too-heated hour that found the queens bringing some realness and — look at those outfits above! — a true eleganza extravaganza. Here’s a quick dossier of what went down, in a quick, highlights-focused format:

The Royal Wedding is over! Is it safe to come out yet?

Don’t worry, folks, it’s almost at an end. After months of intensive hat speculation, commemorative plate production, cake experts, lip readers, total bludgeoning of the word “fairy-tale,” and Anglophilia bordering on Anglomania, we only have a few more days of stray headlines like “William and Kate’s Honeymoon Suite: Is There an Ice Machine?” and “What Dress Would Have Kate Worn in a Parallel Universe?” before we’re finally rid of this whole royally over-reported dealio.

I’ll admit, as an American male I have absolutely no idea what draws people to wake up at 4 a.m. to watch a rich guy and the girl he likes tie the knot. I mean, what did George Washington and Mel Gibson fight for if Americans are just going to end up fawning over the British monarchy and hand out a bunch of Oscars to The King’s Speech? The ceremony itself was lavish and pretty and occasionally sweet, but mostly twee and long. Even the people at the wedding were getting a little bored. Admittedly, the presence of a horse-drawn carriage and the two evil stepsisters from Cinderella did hint at those fairy-tale aspects everyone on morning television kept talking about, but it didn’t feel as once-in-a-lifetime as once every 20 minutes on Main Street, U.S.A.

'Oprah Behind the Scenes': Best episode to date?

If I ever run into Jennifer Hudson at a Weight Watchers meeting, I’m going to have to bop that girl upside the head. In Sunday’s episode of Oprah Behind the Scenes, we learned that the still-svelte crooner almost prompted Oprah Winfrey and her team to cancel their first show ever — the equivalent of Armageddon within the Harpo Studios walls. The irony of BTS, which is meant to chronicle what Winfrey describes as “the best team in the business,”  is that it’s at its juiciest when something goes wrong on Oprah. So while wreaking havoc on the good people of Harpo, Hudson also inadvertently helped to deliver the best episode to date of BTS.

'Real Housewives of Miami' live reunion: A good move? And more importantly, where's YOUR mirror?

by
Tags: , , , , , , , , About Last Night, Reality TV, Television, TV

One way to increase your chances at a second season pick up: Embark on an expletive-laden rampage on live television. For all the blandness of the six-episode season of The Real Housewives of Miami, last night’s liiiiiive reunion special was pretty spicy. Given the history of these reunions, it was bold of Andy Cohen and his team to brave live television with these hungry reality stars in tow, all of whom saved their most scandalous revelations for last night’s hour-long special. Adrianna seemed to being carrying the Miami cast’s hopes for a renewal on her finely sculpted shoulders, slinging accusations of cheating Cristy’s way, as well as dropping a bomb about her supposed relationship with a 19-year-old (where was all this dish six weeks ago?). At least the tape delay engineer had a busy night.

Oxford English Dictionary adds OMG, LOL, and BFF to its pages. WTF?

by
Tags: , , , , , , , , , , Those Crazy Kids!

OMG, PopWatch BFFs. Big news! The Oxford English Dictionary has added online-speak into its respectable pages: OMG, LOL, BFF, and IMHO are four of 900 new words that have been added to the OED. (Among the other expressions added is muffin top, which is lucky enough to boast the most hilariously polite of definitions: “A protuberance of flesh above the waistband of a tight pair of trousers.” Nice use of ideophone with protuberance, OED!)

IMHO, the OED should tread carefully. After all, it’s only a matter of time before they honor every horrendous misspelling from Sarah Palin’s Twitter (Oh, wait, the Oxford American Dictionary already did that) and add an entirely separate section of every word in the dictionary in caps, thanks to Kanye. The OED can’t be 400,000 pages long, guys! READ FULL STORY »

Randy Jackson on 'The Tonight Show': 'There's some shockers coming' on 'Idol'

by
Tags: , , , , , American Idol, Television, TV

As on American Idol, Randy Jackson contributed very little to his interview with Jay Leno on The Tonight Show last night — dude wouldn’t even pick a gender for the winner! — but he did hint at tonight’s Idol bloodbath: “I think there’s some shockers coming,” he told Jay. I will fight the urge to channel Michael Scott, ack, I can’t help it, that’swhatshesaid! Phew, out of my system. Yes, according to the dawg-edly repetitive one, we are about to lose some fan favorites. But who could it be? Please, Idol gods, not the reportedly hospitalized Casey Abrams. Tell me PopWatchers: Who do you think Randy might be referring to? And which Idol “favorites” could you afford to lose? READ FULL STORY »

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz to divorce. Why do some break-ups affect us more than others?

Tags: , , ,

Wentz-SimpsonImage Credit: Chris Weeks/WireImage.comJust this past week alone, Jude Law and Sienna Miller ended their relationship, Terrence Howard’s wife filed for divorce, and Kelsey Grammer made moves to make his divorce with Camille Grammer official. But none of these break-ups involving high-profile stars affected us quite like the one announced today involving a pair of significantly lower-profile celebrities: As anyone who logged onto an entertainment website learned, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz filed for divorce from her husband of two years, Pete Wentz.

Like many of you, upon hearing the news, I found myself hit with a pang of sadness. And also like many of you, I immediately found myself wondering: Why do I care? READ FULL STORY »

Kanye may have underpaid for custom-made watch

by
Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I think Kanye West should have blown more than $180,000 on this custom-made yellow gold Tiret watch adorned with his own face. The “Kanye” portion of the watch is encrusted with only eight carats of yellow, black, brown and white diamonds. A few more Ks could surely have lent themselves to something more resemblant of a human ear, or smoothed the bulbous terrain of his jowls and chin. When I commission custom-made watches of my face, I tend to allow a full year instead of Kanye’s “five months to create the dial of the watch itself, which is made of a gold-colored mother-of-pearl.” And why are the diamonds on the border so small? This is a disappointment. [PopEater]
