Ashtyn is definitely the casual gamer in the family. A game fan since she owned an Atari, Ashtyn can remember when her brother rigged the television so he wouldn’t lose his Super Mario Bros. game. That is, until the power went out! A fan of all things Mario, Ashtyn is a Nintendo loyalist. She digs playing Mario-style RPG games, watching others play violent shooters (because she sucks at them), and playing casual PC games (like Wedding Dash and Cake Mania). As of now, she is into the Wii and Nintendo DS, though she’s certain the games for PS3 and Xbox 360 are more appealing.

Ratatouille

Our Thoughts on the Winner
The presenters for this were Steve Carrell and Anne Hathaway. Anne was wearing a long red dress that was strapless on one side. She looked absolutely beautiful.

The results show wasn’t too exciting tonight. Like most people, I really only watch to see who would get kicked off. After what seemed like a year of watching the recaps for the guy performances and listening to stupid comments by Paula about colors, we finally got down to some results.

Garrett was the first to be going home. When they announced it Danny was shown looking in the camera with absolute fear. I don’t know what he’s worried about though. Being that he is Vote for the Worst’s poster boy, he should be fine. Garrett sang the song he sang from the other day. He’s not horrible he’s just not as good or as memorable as some of the others at this stage.

After a break, they decided to send one of the girls home. They showed the performances of the ladies just like they did with the men before. After this they will be sending home another male and female from the bunch. This time around Kristy was called up though it was a distraction. Vote for the Worst’s female favorite, Amy Davis was the first to be voted off. Looks like the guys over there will have to hook up with a new female for the masses to vote for next week.

Tonight the top 12 women of American Idol’s Top 24 were performing for the first time on the AI stage. After showing a brief “reminder” of how it all went down (aka how they made it to the Top 24), it was time for the women to hit the stage. This is a recap of what they sang, how they looked, and how they did. Predictions of who should be (and will be) cut are included.

Ryan started the show off by rambling about how bad this cold and flu season is and how some of the girls are actually sick, but planning to try and do their best.

The Judges: Randy was his normal self in a trendy bling-wear sweater ensemble. Paula wore an outfit that was black and white. It was fairly plain for her, but, as usual, Paula looked high, so it’s all good. Her advice for the show…brings the vocals. I can’t help but wonder if she thinks this is the chicken rodeo again. What else are they supposed to bring?! Meanwhile, Simon looked like always and mentioned that he loved when the crappy singers spar with him over his opinion.

According to Ryan, tonight’s songs, just like the night before, are all from the 60s.

Up first is Kristy Lee Cook. Kristy sold her horse to try out for AI. She is known for “Amazing Grace”, but not much else at this point. Tonight we will find out if she’s capable of more or will be leaving quickly.

What she wore: Gold tank top and jeans with some fashion rips and a belt. Her hair looked nice, but it wasn’t singing, so she doesn’t really get points for that.

What she sang: “Rescue Me”

I honestly thought the New Yorker had more class than this. In 1962, world renowned photographer Bert Stern had a photo shoot with Marilyn Monroe at the Hotel Bel-Air. These photos are now known as “The Last Sitting.” Aptly named, these photos were the last set of nude photos taken by Monroe for any publication. Six weeks later, Monroe who was in a very dark period in her life, died from what looked to be an overdose, though that has been widely disputed.

Nearly 50 years later, 46 if we’re being technical, the photo shoot has been re-shot, this time with Lindsay Lohan on the cover. The same location, clothing, and lighting were used. Everything is the same right down to the smallest detail. Well everything except that the iconic, hauntingly beautiful Monroe, who has been replaced with the used up and worn out Lohan.

Stern chose Lohan because he has a fascination for bad girls. It is sad to see that he picked “this” bad girl, because the pictures do not reflect his talent. Not even his lens could cure fugly, moronic, and undeserving. Not to mention the freckle thing. Good God! Can you say Ginger Alert? Not even that blond mop could take away the obvious signs of Carrot Top. Monroe was a brunette turned blond. She was not filled with freckles. Unfortunately, the look doesn’t suit the pictures, especially when you do a before and after.

Now, as if all of this wasn’t bad enough, the bitch had the nerve to speak. According to reports, Lohan is a nympho. She should consider traveling with a spare cock so that she can shove it in her mouth whenever she is compelled to say something without thinking.

Tonight on Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann the cast list for the new season of Dancing with the Stars was revealed. While I don’t normally watch DW, we wanted to make sure readers of Hotarazzi got the list tonight! So, I endured two, long hours of excruciating, Dance War pop singing and boy band type dancing to make sure you got the following list.

You might remember last season offered performances by names such as Jennie Garth, Wayne Newton, Marie Osmond, and Mark Cuban amongst others. I watched some of last season, which was the fifth season of the show.

As I watched the show, I must admit that I chuckled at the falls and pathetic dance moves. I also sat by stunned, as the dancers that did the most amazing job (hint, hint.. Sabrina) were bounced while others that didn’t deserve to hang out ended up staying until the end.

The news is out that while K-Fed is gallivanting around at Fashion Week (let’s hope he takes some lessons), Lynn Spears is watching the kidlets that K has custody of and Brit Brit doesn’t. Meanwhile, Brit who really loves her children, no matter what accent she is speaking in, has lost custody of her money. K-Fed wants to cut her a break though. Being a good guy and knowing that the crazy bitch loves her little monkeys, he wants to give her a second chance. Well, sort of.

K-Fed has given Brit Brit permission to see the kids. The catch is that Lynn is going to have to be the one to okay things here since she will be the one babysitting the children. Boys, Sean and Jayden, haven’t seen mommy since she went batshit crazy a few weeks ago and lost all custody rights. Sources say that Kevin is close to Lynn (Britney says they do it…Gross!) and that he trusts her judgment with the kids. He hopes that Lynn can help Britney see the light of day…for the kid’s sake.

You’ve heard of sleepwalking…well now there is peewalking. This is similar to sleepwalking except you multi-task. You have that dream of a rushing river so you get up, but in this case you’re still sound asleep. You begin to walk to the bathroom…or in this case….whatever you want to pee. Then you drop your pants and let the stream fly.

Well….it’s almost like this. Just ask Dee Snyder, the frontman of Twisted Sister. Snyder is a part of a Reality show, Gone Country. Bobby Brown, aka, PeePee Brown, is also on the same show. The winner gets to test the waters in the country music genre. Unfortunately, for Snyder, part of the show involved almost getting peed on by Bobby.

Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton are fighting in public again. Naturally with a failing…well….life, I suppose, it makes sense that you need the blatant exposure with the paparazzi, any way that you can get it. This little tiff occurred at Timbaland’s pre-Grammy celebration. Apparently the junky didn’t know that the trashy ADD ho was going to be there.

As you can expect, when the girls found out the other was there words were exchanged. The event went something like this.

Lindsay: “What the hell is that bitch doing here? I didn’t know she was on the list.”
Paris: “Fuck off you bitch.”

The reason that the two peas in a pod are fighting like two cracked out pigs in a blanket is because of Timbaland. No, they don’t want to do him…well at least I don’t think so. What they want is to work with him. Both bitches assume that he can revitalize their career. The sad thing is that neither of them realizes that you have to have talent for him to make you better.

A source said that both girls want Timbaland to fix their music careers, but neither expected the other to be there. “Both saw the party as an ideal way of getting him on side - but they didn’t count on the other being there.”
