{ togawp } – hollywood’s secret sauce

Ok, we’ve made no secret over the fact that this year’s O.C. has been far inferior to last season’s 27-episode masterpiece (yes, we use that term lightly).   It’s not like we don’t understand–with all of the praise from everyone during last season’s surprising rise to "minor cultural phenomenon" status, it would be hard for anyone to not phone Season 2 in.  All those piles of blow and hookers aren’t going to do themselves, after all.

But like a beacon of light beaming out from the Newport Beach lighthouse, this latest bit of news provides us with a glimmer of hope for our formerly-beloved O.C.–even if it doesn’t promise to come until NEXT season.

Our friends at TVGasm bring us this juicy tidbit about a future guest appearance on The O.C.:

A little trip to the IMDB.com reveals that none other than Demi Moore
will be guest starring on season three’s big premiere. She is credited
as playing Joan Roberts, who we’ll assume is either Summer’s never-seen
stepmother, or better yet, her never-seen birth mother. I’m sure the
writers will gladly make a "step-monster" joke — if only because
Summer’s favorite term was first coined by, you guessed it, Demi Moore
in "St. Elmo’s Fire." The possibilities for self-referential humor are
endless.

That’s right–Demi and Rachel.  It may not go down until November, but teenage boys everywhere are already prepping their TiVo’s pause button in anticipation.

Paris Hilton, the Grande Dame of Hollywood Paparazzi -and Heiress extraordinaire was victimized this weekend when her TMobile Sidekick cellular phone got hacked.

It was very difficult for our staff to find the REAL phone book information; but it looks like we tracked down the true Links. Some of juicy bits included in the Address-book: Brandon Davis’s digits, Ashley Olsen’s SMS message ID, Nicole Richie’s hot number and much more. There are also revealing Photos that she took on the little gizmo that shouldn’t have been there. In our opinion the most insane find was her Sidekick’s daily notes section, in which the little starlet posted one line sentences ranging from Ron Perelman’s personal number to ‘Call gary shandlin get tape of everything’ or you can’t miss ‘And what conversation might that be bitch? What do you think kristen…Did she learn her lesson? I think gamsy wants a little kiss. Its a gamma tradition.Gamsy is waiting’ (whatever that means!)

Although your language is almost incomprehensible for us educated scholars to understand; Paris we seriously recommend that you upgrade that Tmo’ hunk of crap, and get a Treo or Blackberry. You do know that Side-kick is so…well, 2003.

Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) and his current wife Teresa Barrick (no.2) call it quits. The couple, who’ve been married for 17 years, are talking about separating, according to the NY Post. Tyler and his wife currently reside in quiet Boston, they have two children from the marriage, 16-year-old Chelsea and 13-year-old Taj and seem to live a some-what ‘normal life’.

Barrick, a high-fashion clothing designer, is rumored to be responsible for much of Steven’s out-landish ‘rocker’ wardrobe.

Tyler’s well known other daughter Liv, illegitimately conceived with model Bebe Buell (Playboy Miss Nov. 1974), and Mia, with his first wife, Cyrinda Foxe.

"He is difficult, there isn’t just one thing that led to this," said the NY Post source. "It’s been coming for a while."

If you’re like us here at ToGawp, you’ve been an O.C. diehard since the beginning.

Of course, if you’re like us, you’re probably also growing pretty tired of the show and its all-too-predictable antics.  Whether its this Sandy/Kirsten marital dischord, the drawn-out lesbian build-up of Marissa and Alex, or the tired Summer/Seth schtick, the last few episodes of the O.C. are making us long for Anna and Luke, big-time.

Fortunately for all of us, our good friends over at the Acorn Daily have done us the favor of coming up with an ALL-NEW O.C. Drinking Game, to help try and breathe some new life into this rapidly-aging TV drama. 

So without further ado, here is the Acorn Daily’s O.C. Drinking Game, Season 2 edition:

1).  A New Wing – take 1 drink
After
the Cohen’s remodel, new parts of the house have slowly been revealed.
Nearly every new room has been used to expose a secret, but I think
they’ve got a few more hidden away, maybe a grotto?

2).  Ryan Tackles the Books – take 2 drinks
Is
it all Lindsay’s fault? Or has Ryan been clamoring for that scholarship
to Yale. Either way I feel his pain and you should too. If he refuses
to fight because he has to study the history of agriculture in the
twentieth century, pound your beer.

3).  Neutrogena Marissa – take 2 drinks
Although
these commercials break the precious fourth wall of the OC, we just
couldn’t resist a chance to drink during those painfully long
commercial interludes. With her new Keds contract,
the drinking won’t stop, even during those precious bathroom breaks.
And if by some off chance the ad wizards at FOX put a Keds and
Neutrogena commercial in the same break - finish the bottle.

4).  The Cool OC – take 2 drinks
Whenever
the ludicrous circumstances of the O.C.’s plot line are mentioned
nonchalantly by one of its characters (i.e. Marissa casually mentioning
"oh yeah, I guess Lindsay is my stepsister", pretty much anything Julie
Cooper says).

5).  Shout Outs – take 1 drink
Whenever
a whole scene just should never have happened (like that whole
Summer/Zach milkshake bit) take a drink (as if we have to tell you
to–it’s pretty much an involuntary response).

6). The Fuzz – finish the bottle
Any
time the episode doesn’t end in a "warm fuzzy" moment where everything
is wrapped up all nicely and the characters are all happy and holding
hands.

7).  Marvel Ménage A Trois – finish the bottle
Seth,
Summer, and Zach have become too close for comfort. Either Zach is more
interested in Seth than Summer, or Seth and Summer are getting back
together. Pound your beer if Seth and Summer hook up, pound three if Zach comes out.

8). Machine Gun Speak – take 2 drinks
Ryan
has the tendency to speak in a rapid fire manner, especially when he is
upset. Every time Ryan turns into a verbal machine gun, take 2 drinks. If he does it while performing a “side-eyes,” — take 4 drinks.

9).  The Minority Game – take 2, 4, or 6 drinks depending on race
As
an ex – OCer, I know that the OC clan does not represent Newport’s
diverse population.  The lack of diversity in the show has to be
acknowledged.  If a Hispanic person appears on the show, such as DJ, take 2 drinks.  If an African American appears on the show, take 4 drinks.  And, for the overlooked Asian American population in the OC, take 6 drinks.

10).  Album Overload – take 3 drinks
Did anyone notice that nearly the entire Interpol Antics
CD was played last week.  I mean come on.  What happened to the
diversity of the OC soundtrack that we’ve come to know and love.  Drink
whenever you spy multiple tracks from a single CD.

11).  The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe – take 2 drinks
What
would an OC drinking game be without some type of drink assigned to the
snazzy OC clothing.  Is it really that cold that Seth needs to double
up the polo with a long sleeve - take 2 drinks, one for each layer. And Alex’s hip style can’t dodge this drinking game, take 1 drink for each vintage T that she sports in each episode.

12). Ryan’s Diminishing Quantity of Tail – finish the bottle
The
OC’s dark horse has had a rough season with the ladies.  His on again,
off again relationship with Lindsey has left Ryan in a dry patch that
can only be compared with a Palm Desert vacation.  Each episode Ryan
strikes out, finish your drink.

Drink responsibly.  This drinking game is intended for mature drinkers only, don’t end up like this –>

Hollywood hunk BRAD PITT has been linked to American MAXIM model APRIL FLORIO, only a month after announcing his split from wife JENNIFER ANISTON.

Pitt was photographed with 22-year-old Florio in a un-named Santa Monica ice cream store earlier this week. British newspaper DAILY EXPRESS reports Florio and Pitt were introduced by the actor’s OCEAN’S TWELVE co-star GEORGE CLOONEY in Europe last summer.

Florio’s agent MIKE ESTERMAN stated publically, "I just spoke to her and she was with him in Greece and California."

Florio is Miss December in this year’s (2005) Maxim calendar and has filmed a small role in upcoming PARIS HILTON film PLEDGE THIS! (Directed by William Hines)

Stop the press…full pics from US Weekly’s article-expose on newly single Jennifer Anistons night on the town with hollywood swinger Vince Vaughn.

Looks like Jen has gone from Super Hunk, to Super Punk…from Legends of the Fall Love to Dodgeball Dump. 2005 will definitely be a Fight Club of affairs; no pun intended for Jen and Brad alike.

Jen joins a long list of Vince Vaughn Ex’s, including: Ashley Judd, Janeane Garofalo, and Joey Adams…ToGawp staffers still think Brad’s recent fling with April Florio (not to mention Angelina Jolie) makes this tame date seem like a firecracker that fizzled.

We wish them both the best of luck, the Hollywood dating pool is swimming with intrigue since you both hit the singles scene.

You saw her on the Super Bowl ad that made men everywhere gaze in awe–and she’s now a household name: The GoDaddy Girl.

Not surprisingly, this wasn’t the GoDaddy girl, aka Nikki Cappelli, aka Candice Michelle’s first foray into showing some skin for $$$.  In fact, Candice has beared all for Playboy (NSFW).

But we here at ToGawp didn’t stop there in our investigation of the girl everyone is talking about.  Something told us there was more to the GoDaddy girl than just a fit physique and (most likely surgically-endowed) perfect breasts.  We went deeper, to get to know the girl behind the skimpy tank top–and we weren’t disappointed. 

Those of you who assumed Candice was just like all the other girls, you’d be interested to know that she  is much more than just a pretty face.  In fact, she’s a model, an actress, and a fitness model.  That’s right–this girl is a triple threat.   

As if that weren’t enough, according to her bio, Candice is also a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin and a "die hard cheese head" (aka a Green Bay Packer fan), her favorite colors are lavender and pink, and her favorite movies are Grease, Dirty Dancing and The Fast and The Furious. 

So there you have it–all of you who tried to assail the character of the lovely GoDaddy Girl, consider the record to officially be set straight: this girl is definitely not just another easy-on-the-eyes bimbo.

Oh, and if for some reason that commercial actually made you want to buy a domain name, you should definitely head over to GoDaddy.com.  And not just b/c of their buxom models–they’re actually the best deal in town.

Looks like comic actor Rob Schneider has publically lashed out at movie critic Patrick Goldstein labeling him "unfunny" and "pompous" for his highly criticized contribution to film.

In revenge the former Saturday Night Live star took out a full-page magazine ad in the Hollywood Reporter. This ad cites Goldstein’s critical article on Jan. 26, in which he belittled movie studios for making ‘lackluster sequels’ like Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo. [Defamer.com]
