Post-Break-up Paris Goes to Rehab, Celebrates Vanity

Paris isn't letting the dissolution of her 14-month relationship with Doug Reinhardt get her down. This is the second time we've seen the heiress in Las Vegas in the past few weeks.

It was during her last trip here that the rumors regarding Paris' supposed relationship with Kim Kardashian's ex Reggie Bush surfaced. The two both were at two Vegas birthday parties that weekend for Mark Sudach and Jason Strauss where they apparently shared champagne and more But eye-witness Robin Leach assures that the couple didn't even speak to each other, and I'd believe Robin if he told me Johnny Weir was straight. That's how reliable he is.

Predicting the Party: Joel McHale & Donald Glover

This Friday, April 30 Community stars Joel McHale and Donald Glover are performing at Mandalay Bay. These two hysterical hotties are both on my list of future boyfriends, so I obviously have spent a lot of time thinking about where to best stalk them during there time here in Sin City. I actually met Donald once, too so I already have an ice breaker prepared. He told me I was a "sexy Fievel" for Halloween, words which I cherish and shall be proudly displayed as my tombstone epitaph. I also know Joel is happily married with two kids, but what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas right?

Pavement To Reunite In 2010

Fans of the 90’s indie group, Pavement, can finally show a hint of enthusiasm as Matador records announced that the influential college radio mainstay will be reuniting for a long-awaited show in 2010. Tickets go on sale September 25, 2009, with pre-sale tickets already on sale (check the Matador records website for the password).

The record label announced that this will be a one-time show on September 21, 2010, at Rumsey Playfield in Central Park. Matador is insisting that this is a one-time event, but rumors are already circulating about future shows at Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, and even the possibility of a world tour. So far, only the performances at Rumsey Playfield have been confirmed, but pent-up fandemonium released throughout the coming year might dictate otherwise.
