Dear Peter Facinelli: We will not beat around the bush. We will not dilly-dally. We will not digress. We will not mince words. We will get straight to the point. We will shoot from the hip. You, sir, have disappointed us. In case you haven't noticed, Mr. Facinelli, you are driving a Toyota Prius in the photo linked below. And, yes, we realize that may be a little edgy right now, what with the safety recall and everything -- "Oooh, there goes Peter Facinelli! Man, that mo-fo is crazy, cruisin' in a recalled Toyota Prius. Quentin Tarantino needs to hire his ass now while he's still alive. I bet...

Video: T-Pain Shows Off World's Ugliest & Most Awesome Cadillac HearseHere's what we know for sure: 1) T-Pain is a pretty funny guy. Funny ha-ha, not funny hmm-hmm. Though he has his moments. 2) T-Pain's music isn't what we'd call The Bomb, but we've been known to bob our heads to it, even though we are sworn enemies of Auto-Tune and the legions of Ke$has and Heidi...

HELLO, PEOPLE OF EARTH: I am Scarlett Johansson, and yes, I am stunning. Thank you for noticing. (Never mind that I totally lifted my cat-eyes and my up-do from Deneuve circa The Hunger. Like, who would know that? Who was even born then? Old people with their complaining, that's who.) As I was saying, PEOPLE OF EARTH: the last time you saw me, I was in a Toyota Prius with my husband-to-be. (Who is also stunning, thank you for noticing.) You may think that we put our perfect, perky posteriors in a Prius to ride some sort of greenified bandwagon. But you would be wrong. We leave those dull...

Gerard Butler Gives Us The 'Atsa Matta You?' Beside His Range RoverPossible reasons that Gerard Butler is giving us the "atsa matta you" face: A) Because after a while, the paparazzi are just plain irritating. ("Dude, I was basically naked for 90% of 300. What more do you want to see?") B) Because he understands that, as a B+ celeb, we expect better from him than...

Ryan Gosling Tapped To DRIVEActor, singer, dancer, and former Mouseketeer Ryan Gosling hasn't been cranking out many movies lately. Apparently, he's been spending a lot of time in the studio with his band Dead Man's Bones. Which is a shame, because while Dead Man's Bones are really awesome cookies, they are less awesome in...

Yes, that's David Beckham behind the wheel of a beige Bentley Continental GT Supersports in the photo linked below. Yes, his wife Victoria/Posh bought it for him last year to spice up his life after the LA Galaxy lost a very important game. (Remember: winning is cheap, losing is expensive.) Yes, we imagine that the Hungry Stick Lady bought it to balance the ravenous evil emanating from her own black Bentley Continental GTC. And yes it's a heavy drinker (fuel economy: 10 city/17 highway), and it swings both ways (gas, E85, or both) -- just like everyone else in Los Angeles. [CelebrityCarsBlog...

Toyotathon Of Death: Jon Stewart Lays Out The Sudden Acceleration DebacleEven if you live under a rock, you're probably aware of the trainwreck of Toyota safety issues over the last few weeks. We've sidestepped the issue for the most part, as aside from the horrific potential results of the problem, it's the definition of a snoozefest. But the inimitable Jon Stewart and...

Sylvester Stallone: Ayyyyy! Jason Statham: Oi! How's it hangin', Sly? Stallone: Ayyyyy! Statham: You ever eaten at this restaurant before? This Ciccone's place? (Looking over his shoulder) Hey, you don't think it's owned by Madonna, do you? Stallone: Ayyyyy! Statham: 'Cause that would NOT be cool. Dude, have you seen her lately? We used to hang out when I was shooting Snatch, when she and Guy Ritchie were together. Back in the day, even after that Playboy shoot with the fuzzy armpits, my mates and I were all like, "Damn, I would wreck that!" (but you know, with more of a British accent). Now...

Octomom + Toyota Sienna = World's Worst Juvenile PunThe picture we're linking to represents an apotheosis of sorts: something that the staff of CelebsAndCars have been anticipating for a long, long time. See that lady with the fake breasts, lips, and hair color? That's Nadya Suleman. She wasn't content with the uterus she'd grown up with, so she had...
