This will probably mean nothing to those of you outside California, but Barney's cafe got a B. Do you know how bad your restaurant has to be to get a B? I could not stop laughing when I saw this. Celebrities would probably never ever enter any other place that has a B, but have no problems with this.
Emma Watson changes after the MTV Movie Awards to hang out with Cameron Diaz.
Apparently Gisele Bundchen does actually sweat.
Not sweating, but probably enjoying himself is Hugh Jackman surrounded by Naomi Watts and Isla Fisher at a polo match.
Of course you cannot have polo without having Nacho Figueras.
Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler on a motorcycle.
Kate Middleton at a horse race.
Kylie Minogue lives her Valkyrie fantasy.
Marion Cotillard just had a baby two weeks ago and is already modeling.

ReplyDeleteCameron Diaz is a great comedic actress but I watched "Knight and Day" last night. Oh. My.
ReplyDeleteThis generation of royals has quite a sense of humor, judging by the hats.
ReplyDeleteKylie gives such an amazing concert, everyone MUST go see her live, they are visual spectacles.
ReplyDeleteKylie! She's like the Aussie Madonna, but a billion times nicer.
ReplyDeleteOh my God. Marion is so astoundingly beautiful. I'll forgive her (and Leo) for the overrated shitshow that was Inception. I LOVE her.
Kate's going to look 50 when she's 35. She needs to gain some weight, is what I'm saying.
Ho-hum. Gisele is flawless, as per usual. I'll bet her sweat smells like magnolia blossoms.
Gerald and Jessica are taking a ride to Lake Minnetonka where they will spend the evening skinny dipping.
ReplyDeleteAnyone under 25 years old will not get that joke.
Could that photo of Gerard and Biel be ANY MORE staged?? Ugh she's annoying.
ReplyDeleteHugh, Naomi, Isla - three adorable Aussies.
I have NO idea what the caption on that first photo is about.
Gisele has great genes, but she has always been extremely athletic.
ReplyDeleteGerard looks like he is taking his cousin to the prom
ReplyDeleteEmma Watson looks a bit like a punk tinkerbell in that pic
Two weeks ago ... so "almost newborn"?
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY what i was thinking Cancan...

ReplyDelete#BigMama - Yep. She's even sporting that 1991 Julia Robert's "Hook" haircut.
ReplyDeleteJasonBlueEyes, would you be referring to the amazing movie Purple Rain?
ReplyDeleteThe Barneys comment is regarding the LA County health department's letter grading system for restaurants and other food providers.(Cleanliness, proper food storage, etc.) The grade must be visibly posted so patrons know the current health department rating.
ReplyDeleteThanks amazonblue - so "B" is "really bad"? At least, that's what I'm getting from this. I'm also thinking the reference to celebrities is that this place is really popular with them or something?
ReplyDeleteOur office was having a lunch meeting at the restaurant / bar with rooftop seating on the end to the left if you are facing the Manhattan Beach pier.
ReplyDeleteThe had a C on the wall. I had never seen a C before. I still don't believe the manager's explanation.
If the grading is for Barney's Beanery on Santa Monica, I'm suprised it scored that high. That place was gross. But the celebs loved it. Musta been selling something other than food and beer ;)
ReplyDeleteMost restaurants have rats, and ALL of them have roaches. I don't care if they have A++++++ rankings. When you eat out, you're basically feasting on a big ol' bowl of teeming bacteria.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Guess who prepares most of her meals at home?
@cancan & @allisonwonderland - you two read my mind!
ReplyDeleteI just had to look this up...
ReplyDeleteBarney's of New York has a location on Wilshire in Beverly Hills. The restaurant inside is very expensive, a cup of regular coffee is $3.75, side of fries is $7.00, various omlettes start at $15.00 etc.
Overpriced and unclean too.
cancan, allisonwonderland and cecilia00~ yes yes yes again yes, this may be why cps hasn't gotten involved.....she lives in europe.....
ReplyDelete@Mandy - Ding. Ding. Ding. You are so correct ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks to Andy Cohen's club house, I know who Nacho is. Woo friggin' hoo I know, but hey the guy is hot.
ReplyDeleteOh man, that's horrible about the baby with defects no matter who the mother may be.
I gotta admit with nothing better to do last Saturday night I also watched Knight and Day and even laughed a little. Cameron was pretty weak, but Tom's character cracked me up. "I got this."
Is Marion's baby only 2 weeks old? That is still most definitely newborn.
ReplyDeleteOff topic.
ReplyDeleteFor all you who thought his account was hacked, Rep. Anthony Weiner just admitted sending the pictures.
.robert- I ate there once and actually got such horrible service I left a two dollar tip. Never again.
ReplyDeleteA B rating in SoCal?? Somebody obviously pissed off the health inspector. I used to know someone with first hand knowledge of most of the restaurant kitchens in my area and some of his stories were gross. I've heard that people would never eat in a restaurant (any restaurant) if they knew even half of what's happening behind the swinging doors.
ReplyDeleteBut, I love going out so I just pretend I never heard anything.
LOL @ Barney's B grade. Maybe someone fell behind inh their payments.
ReplyDeletemsgirl yep her baby was born May 19 - definitely still a newborn. If that is considered almost-newborn then I might have to reconsider calling friends' babies newborns at one month *wince*.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone has seen Marion's mother it's in her genes that the baby weight would fall completely off. Plus she was wearing a lot of spanx / garments underneath her clothes in the Dior shoot which keep her post-pregnancy line in check. But I still do like the shoot.
Dunno who Nacho is, but he sure is rockin' those white pants.
ReplyDeleteMarion is GORGEOUS.
Marion was magnificent in Inception.
ReplyDeleteOff topic...but does anyone remember when there were blind items every day? Those were the days...sigh.
ReplyDeleteI think Kate has great legs.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but Marion Cotillard kind of bugs me. She just seems smug.
Last year, I spent a weekend (only) in Paris. My husband and I were wandering along some street when we came across a store window that was full of signs devoted to Kylie Minogue. They looked like street signs and all had cliches (in english) that integrated Kylie's name, such as "Kylie-Licking Good" and "Happiness is Kylie Minogue Shaped." It was the most bizarre thing. We had to take a picture. It was Sunday so everything was closed so we have no idea what that "store" was.
Jason, "that's not Lake Minnetonka."
ReplyDeleteWow, didn't take Biel long to find a new Merkin. I wonder if he has the same deal Timberlake had - he can fuck around with as many chicks as he wants, but Biel helps him have a "good guy" image. On the other hand, being a man whore hasn't hurt him so far, so maybe it's straight publicity he's looking for.
I have a friend that is a DHEC inspector, who said, if you eat out your restaurant better have an "A" on it's doors b/c it's NOT very hard to get the "A" and if you don't have one, that means things are really, really bad.
ReplyDeleteI kind of like Nacho. (WTF is Nacho??)
Oh, Jessica.
Ignacio "Nacho" Figueras is a polo player from Argentina; he is also the "face" of Lauren's Black Label.
ReplyDelete@Ida: You sound like Sheldon Cooper ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, this is like the parade of fabulous LEGS! Cameron, Kate, Kylie, all gorgeous gams. And Kylie is not a kid, either.
ReplyDeleteI agree with ecua...where are the daily BI? Enty please bring back the daily blinds or at least give us make up BI when you miss a day!
ReplyDeleteNacho was doing some heavy flirtation with Andy Cohen (and vice versa) on the clubhouse. Hmmmm
ReplyDeleteNacho is GORGEOUS. I'll be booking a flight to Argentina now.....
ReplyDeleteemma is going home with carmen?.. this is saying something.. hmm
ReplyDeleteIt's Catherine Windsor or Catherine Duchess of Cambridge if were getting technical. Or Pippa's sister. Whatever.
