Katie Holmes is "Women in Film"/Max Mara's 2011 Face of the Future (No, really, it's true)

Yeah, I was scratching my head too and doublechecking my calendar to make sure it wasn't 1998 and Katie Holmes was still assaulting my tv as Joey Potter on Dawson's Creek because this award makes absolutely zero sense.

Annette Bening receiving a Women in Film award. Check. That makes sense. And it's well deserved. Bening has been nominated for an Academy Award four times.

Okay, okay, Katie has appeared in films. To great critical disdain. She has appeared with some Hollywood heavyweights but she has consistently been called the weak link. Since marrying the Crown Prince of Crazy, has Katie had to work for a role at all?

So how did Katie get this award? My guess is that within the last month or so, Tommy slipped on his high heeled white tennis shoes and ran those little legs over to the closest Scieno bank to take a big bag full of money to someone in charge at Women in Film. I am no fan of Tommy's but I will concede that he is holding up his end of the contract and trying to make Katie a STAH.

As much as Annette Bening deserves this award, I hope she will be MIA on June 16, refusing to share a stage with someone as untalented, uncharismatic and undeserving as Katie Holmes.

Lisa Cuddy: The Most Unprofessional Administrator of All Time

"When you bend over, I can see your IUD." Gregory House, M.D. Let me begin by saying I love House. I love Hugh Laurie. I love Wilson. I love Robert Sean Leonard. I don't, however, love Lisa Cuddy. I'm not sure where to begin but I know where it will always end up. Her fricking attire. Cuddy is supposed to be the administrator of a huge, well-respected hospital in Princeton, New Jersey. And yet she dresses in too tight skirts with too tight and too low cut blouses and sweaters like she's auditioning for a Hot for Teacher video. If I walked into a hospital and saw someone dressed like that I would assume either a) she's a stripper who suffered a slip and fall from the pole at work, b) she's an "enterprising" legal assistant/paralegal who is sleeping with her boss who is representing said stripper over the said slip and fall or c) she's a hospital receptionist who is looking to bag a wealthy doctor. Okay, maybe...

Meet Melissa, the Queen Bridezilla

The lovely Melissa Photo Source: WETV.com So I was channel surfing last night and ended up having a good two (okay, maybe three) hours of my life drained by WE's bridal bitchfest Bridezillas . I realize the point of the show is to showcase what out of control hags some women are when planning their weddings but Miss Melissa really takes the cake. First, she claims to be 23 and I always find it interesting that most of these chicks look older than they claim to be. I'd like to see a birth certificate before I agree to that. She also claims to be in medical school, which is really funny considering (1) Melissa seems to have an awful lot of free time on her hands, to bitch, whine, complain and threaten to kill people and (2) for someone who claims to want a career saving lives, she sure talks about taking a lot of them. (Case in point: Melissa, concerned that she won't be happy with her wedding cake, tells the camera that if the baker screws ...

Bitch, Please: Toddlers & Tiaras

Okay, so I watched Toddlers & Tiaras this week. Had heard about it, heard in the past that it was a pedophile's dream show, how they exploited kids, blah, blah, blah. I was channel surfing and there was nothing else on so I stopped. And watched. Stunned. Do parents like these really exist? WTF is wrong with them? And how on earth does a 2 month old baby win a pageant? The least amount of drool? Best pacifier? Carried the best by parent? I'm confused. But I digress. Apparently the format is that each episode follows several kids and their severely in need of therapy parental units as they prepare for and then compete in some type of child's beauty pageant, with the end of the show being the crowning of the winners. This episode of T&T begins with the unforunately named Brystol of Lexington, South Carolina who is 18 months old and has supposedly won top prize in every pageant she has compet...
