Dominick Dunne was many things to many people: novelist, journalist, movie producer, husband, and father, to name a few. (His son, Griffin, may be the most underrated actor of the 1980s. Or the most overrated. Jury's out.) In addition to all that, Dunne was also something of a car fan. Nothing as...

You know Juliette Lewis, right? Actress? Singer? A 50/50 cocktail of awesomeness and crazitude, served with a splash of bitters and sweat? THAT Juliette Lewis. The one you haven't heard from in a while. Well, she's about to make a very high-profile appearance next Tuesday night -- at a launch party...

Hi! I'm Pamela Anderson! You might remember me from none of my TV shows or movies. I used to be Pamela Anderson Lee, but someone told me that sounded too ethnic, so I changed it back. I had to divorce my husband in the process, which made me sad -- but not as sad as when I see people wearing fur...

We know you can't make out that face too well, but trust us: it's K-Fed. We could clock that scraggle of facial hair from across a crowded, dimly lit Del Taco dining room. Which is probably why Federline opted for the drive through. Remember, Kevin: you may have ordered Macho Burritos, but they...

Yes, that's Mel Gibson. Yes, he's wearing eyeglasses and a fake mustache. Considering all the hate being heaped on guy, he should probably be wearing a helmet and a shield and other junk they wore in Olden Tymes (we forget the terminology: we haven't been to a Ren Faire in years months), but maybe...

If you know American cuisine, you know Thomas Keller. And if you know, Thomas Keller, you know his flagship restaurant, The French Laundry in Napa Valley. And if you know Napa Valley and California and the world's current fascination with all things seasonal and green, you will not be surprised to...

You know how it goes: you're at a party having a couple of brews, then you utter a few careless whispers, things get a little too funky, and -- boom -- next thing you know, you're slumped across the leather seat of a Range Rover, being roughed up by policemen. (Not in the good way.) We've all been...

If you're a sports fan, you know Floyd Mayweather Jr. as a boxing legend. If you're a Dancing With The Stars fan, you know Floyd Mayweather Jr. as that buff dude who got axed pretty early in season five. And if you're a news junkie, you know Floyd Mayweather Jr. as the guy who paid an extended...

The New England Patriots could've found themselves in a bind yesterday when star quarterback Tom Brady got sacked in a two-car crash. Thankfully, Brady's sporty Audi S8 kept him nice and safe -- though a passenger in the other car wasn't so lucky. According to USA Today (we know, but we have to...

A week ago, some guy named Aaron was motoring around town, minding his own business, when -- WHAM -- out of the blue, AnnaLynne McCord nailed him. Which isn't especially unusual, except this time she was in a car. Afterward, AnnaLynne turned on the eyelashes and the charm with an "I'm very sorry"...

Remember when saw Kellan Lutz rocking his Infiniti G35? We appreciated that. It was refreshing, invigorating -- an automotive palate-cleanser to help wash the taste of Land Rovers and G-Wagens out of our mouths. Then, we saw him in what appeared to be an Audi A5, and our hearts sank, because Audi...

Are you familiar with Naya Rivera? If you watched Glee, you'd probably recognize her as one of the cheerleaders -- or "cheerios", in Jane Lynch lingo. Fabulous Jane Lynch lingo. We almost vaguely sort of remember her, but can you keep a secret? We stopped watching Glee months ago, despite the...

Remember Sarah Michelle Gellar? Of course you do. She was fighting vampires before it was cool. You know, after it was cool the first time? Anyway, we haven't heard much out of her, lo these past several years (except on Robot Chicken where her voiceovers are soothing, alto ear-balm), but now she...

The BBC's Top Gear is perhaps the most well-recognized and widely-watched motoring program on earth, and the series' dependence on a hired gun that plies the world's best supercars at the show's test track is equally well-known. That driver's identity has been a closely guarded secret of the show...

Did you ever play the game "Kidnapped" in elementary school? It wasn't really a "thing", per se. In fact, we might've been the only ones playing it, and it might've been just in our heads. Which would be par for the course. Anyway, in the game, we pretended that we'd awoken in a strange bed in a...

Here is a list of things that would be surprising: 1. Anne Heche making a comeback. 2. Weapons of mass destruction discovered in Britney Spears' bonus room. 3. Certain members of our staff not standing in line for the newest Apple-branded colostomy bag (or whatever proprietary whirligig they're...

So, George Michael: Britain's death-wishy answer to Whitney Houston, Britney Spears, and Kevin Spacey. He's like the holiday turducken no one wants to eat. This photo says it all, right? We think it was taken the night that he crashed his Land Rover through the front window of a photo shop. (Side...

Something's up at Infiniti. We're just not sure what. Compared to its Asian luxury rivals, Lexus and Acura, Infiniti is usually pretty quiet. But over the past week or so, the brand has popped up in conversation several times -- notably, in rumors about more hybrid models and a new Essence sports...

A year ago, the thought of Oompa-Loompas made us smile. Sure, they were a little creepy, what with their bite-size stature and fake bake-gone-terribly-wrong tan jobs, but whatever: they had their place in our crusty childhood hearts. Then came Jersey Shore. We don't exactly know how Nicole "Snooki"...

We don't know for sure what caused Dr. Frank Ryan's 1995 Jeep Wrangler to hurtle off the Pacific Coast Highway and down a cliff on Monday afternoon. We do know, however, that he didn't survive the crash. We also know that he was tweeting moments earlier. That doesn't sound good. Thankfully, Ryan's...
