● Madonna is so over M.I.A.'s "adolescent" and "irrelevant" hijacking of the half-time show.

"What was the point?" [TMZ]

The souflees are like the best. And at Grenouille—the frog's legs.

Gossip Girl is a watchable program if you abandon the following luxuries: convincing actors, character development, plot construction, conflict resolution, and expectations of how children age 16-20 act in the real world. In fact, toss aside all those expectations and Gossip Girl is like The Wire: A gritty, true-to-life portrayal of a corrupt, sleazy city. A city where palms can be greased with hundred dollar bills and lives can be changed with the snap of well-manicured fingers. Where Polish maids can hold better tales than any of the pretty young things. Still, some of us are on a time-delay when it comes to GG and like the experience of watching the soap unsullied. So having the show's most critical reveal spoiled in a poorly written headline as we peruse the day's gossip is frustrating. Thanks a lot Tim Stack at Entertainment Weekly! Spoilers ahead, if you hadn't picked up on that yet.

Once in a while, even the most molasses-iest of inert gossip can accumulate and clog up the works worse than that time you decided to experiment with flushing Q-tips down the toilet. Many of these stories are unfounded and tend to cite "a source" and provide very little in the way of actual substance. For bloggers who got lost on their way to law school and ended up camped up in front of a MacBook, this is a problem. For certain other bloggers, it means a chance to put that crumpled up, crappy MFA degree to good use and embellish the empty spaces with poignant tales with Life Lessons and a chance to volley big words. But eventually, an ominous cloud has to float on and rain all over our pop parade. Thanks, Gossip Cop! Even if there are a million things wrong with the idea of "responsible celebrity gossip"! So without further ado, a recap of more prominent things that appeared to look one way earlier this week, but now appear considerably different and less interesting.

Silver isn’t just for second-place losers this summer, and it's a nice alternative to summer’s ubiquitous bronze. Gray and silver eye makeup flatter all skin tones and have been seen on the runways of Marc Jacobs and Matthew Williamson, and on celebrities including Kristen Stewart, Hilary Duff, and Alicia Keys. What's are the best ways to go for the silver, you ask?
