You know in Austin Powers when Mike Meyers' character can't stop saying MOOOLLLLLEEEEE? Well, that's how I feel about Denise Richards' shorts. Satin and cherry red? I am so boring because that selection is WILD.

Jerry O'Connell, Kate Walsh, Amy Smart, Paula Abdul, Tori Spelling and Antonio Sabato Jr. all attended the Second Annual Bow Wow event held at the Playboy Mansion presented by the Much Love Animal Rescue.

She must be DYING! Paula Abdul's ex-boyfriend has signed up to be the next Bachelor.  Restaurateur J.T. Torregiani began dating Abdul last July but the couple split last month. He was asked to take part in the show several years ago but then fell for Paula and declined. Now that the relationship is no longer, J.T. has decided to give love another shot in front of millions of people. Do millions of people really watch that show? 

A source reveals Torregiani was asked to take part in The Bachelor a couple of years ago, but he fell for Abdul and had to decline the offer. The insider insists the restaurateur is keen to find love because "he wants to settle down, have kids and a family".

DANG! Paula Abdul was rocking the red carpet when she attended Fox's Upfronts party yesterday in N.Y.C. Lots of the channel's other stars were there too...Eliza Dushku, Emily Deschanel...and warning: lots of man candy ahead: Jerry, O'Connell, Will Arnett, Wentworth Miller and Joshua Jackson were all there. Yum :)

I heard this rumor a long time ago, but never a quote from Paula Abdul directly. She is really thinking about strutting her stuff for Dancing with the Stars. YOU KNOW she will win. She was unbeatable in the 90s and the following she has from American Idol will support her cause I am sure. People give Paula a hard time... but in the end, she is a really sweet person. I just hope she doesn't overwork herself. Ok Magazine reports:

"I'm just hypothetically thinking about it," Paula revealed to OK! after sitting in on Monday's taping of the hit ABC reality competition. And, despite being on a competing network (Idol airs on Fox), she claims there would be no conflict with her show. "There's a thing called the "off-season,' I think."
"It's all Tom's fault!" she joked, adding, "I'm a huge fan [of DWTS]. It would be a phenomenal experience for me to be a student and to learn a form of dance that I've never been introduced to."
But before all the Paula fans go setting their Tivos for next season, she advises, "I'd be honored, but that does not confirm or deny anything that's out there right now.

For all the American Idol fans out there who love Paula Abdul because she's actually NICE to the contestants, you might be interested in a blog that she just wrote for VH1.
On defending herself against Simon,

"'Dance Like There's No Tomorrow,' that title alone makes me cry. I was told that I'd never dance again, and I was told I'd never sing again. People don't know. I'm completely misunderstood because I sit next to a guy who gets off on trying to make me look like an idiot. People don't know that. It's not a joke. It's real. We are who we are. For whatever reason, he has fun doing that"

On how she's never done drugs and doesn't drink.

"I didn't know that when I signed up for [American Idol] I'd be defending the kids . . . and myself. And my career. You can only imagine kids coming in and seeing me. They didn't know anybody else, and then they'd see me and be like, 'Oh my god!' Well, that didn't sit well. So you'll notice in season one that there's no recollection of my music career. But I held my own. Even though I had to sit there and be accused of things, becoming an object of satire and a caricature. I've had to have dignity and grace. I've watched my reputation fall down and I've felt helpless. Did you ever see me in clubs? Did you ever see me photographed? Absurd! I've never been drunk in my life and I don't do recreational drugs. I've watched myself be mocked."

On her reputation being harmed,

"It's a live show, so I'm always like, 'I'm thinking. I'm thinking.' While Ryan throws to Randy, what you don't see is Simon in my ear, telling me to say the most ridiculous things and bugging me. I've had to learn to tune him out as much as I can. Sometimes it's hysterically funny, but oftentimes it isn't rewarding. So then it becomes, 'Oh, Paula is insane,' or 'Paula is drunk.' For him to say there was something in my Coca-Cola cup was hideous. It was horrible. It's not funny. He could have retracted it, but he perpetuated it. Guys, I'm a good sport, but there's a limit here. This is my reputation. I don't care that you don't care. I don't care that you, Simon, don't even know [the contestants'] names. You can hear what he does to me now, like, 'What's the girl from Ireland's name?' I mean, come on. Only Simon gets away with that. But the truth is that I started to lose endorsements because of false accusations. Now I'm defending my own intellectual property. It's not an easy job for me."

Wow, that's all pretty crazy. I actually feel bad for her. Paula has gotten a bum rap ever since she started on AI. To read the full blog, go here.

Vanessa Minnillo attended the Lisa Kline Kritik Clothing Party yesterday.  She rocked the red carpet in an all white ensemble.  While I'm not really crazy over the whole idea of formal shorts, I have to admit that if I had legs like Vanessa, I might change my opinion :)

Here's a happy go lucky Paula Abdul enjoying a lunch at Trilussa's with friends and then deciding to snap pictures of the paparazzi. I know she's just having fun and joking since she's smiling, but why do celebrities do that? :) Is it to prove a point or do they really keep these photographs?I really love her gray leather jacket...WENN

Paula Abdul has been in the business for decades! She was so hot when I was young, jumping around with an animated cat and here she is again being a fan favorite amongst America's youth. That's really hard to do, but Paula has somehow managed. Here she is arriving at the TRL studios.I'm one of those people that still watches American Idol and I'm always amazed at what Paula says or does. She manages to keep it together for half of the show and then mid way through I think she loses it or something. Right?

I think we have to talk about some of the outfits worn at a Pre-Grammy Party hosted by Clive Davis at the Beverly Hilton  Hotel. Taking chances eh?! Check out Rihanna and Ziyi and tell me what you think. Here are Janet Jackson, Jermaine Dupri, Ziyi Zhang, Fergie, Lindsay Lohan, Rihanna, Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, Ashlee Simpson, Pete Wentz, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson.Grammy's are tonight in case you were interested in watching.WENN

Alright, I'm trying to do a rundown of all the celebs we haven't already seen, who celebrated Superbowl Sunday in some way shape or form.  Here are Kim Kardashian and her sisters, Kellie Pickler, Maria Menounos, Stacey Keibler, Audrina Patridge and Karolina Kurkova, all at various events, plus a few shots of Paula Abdul singing.  Did anybody catch her performance?  If so, what did you think?  Is this the comeback we've all been waiting for? :)
