Mad about the girl Pissed about Palin

McCain's running mate is a Christian Stepford wife in a sexy librarian costume. Women, it's time to get furious.
  • Cracking Code Pink

    Why does the peace movement have to dress and act like an irritating children's birthday party?
  • Does Oscar hate his own smell?

    The academy shows American-style self-loathing by handing its biggest trophies to foreigners and drowning itself in montages. Save us, George Clooney!
  • And they're auf!

    "Project Runway" designers march their designs -- feathers! fringe! Oprah-worthy pronouncements -- down the catwalk at Fashion Week. Who will take the prize?
  • Alice in Fashionland

    Love-starved reality TV stars! Food-starved baby-faced models! Clothes that starve the imagination! A first foray into New York Fashion Week.
  • Fashion Week, one big sleazy prom!

    Cintra Wilson explores the Bryant Park tents.
  • Al's big day

    Gore's Live Earth festival rocked, and may rock our world. So long, Hummers. Hello (again), Flower Power!
  • We'll always hate Paris

    The public outrage over Paris Hilton's early release from her L.A. prison cell may be justified -- but why are we expending so much energy protesting the antics of a spoiled media whore?
  • Hollywood gets humble

    Ellen was 'Ellish in her tacky leisure suits. But at Sunday night's Oscars, Helen Mirren, Jennifer Hudson, Al Gore and the rest restored fame's good name.
  • Goodbye, Vickie Lynn

    No candle in the wind, Anna Nicole Smith was more like a bonfire in a hailstorm -- and we couldn't pry our eyes away from her.
  • Two parts hubris, one part paranoia

    9/11 gave America amnesia about the real Rudy Giuliani. He's an authoritarian narcissist -- and we don't need another one of those in the White House.
  • Battle of the blondes

    Jessica Simpson's Malibu Barbie, Xtina Aguilera and her assless chaps, and the unrepentantly slutty Paris Hilton face off with new records. Is this some kind of Republican plot?
  • Folie à deux in the Hamptons

    The cult film "Grey Gardens" followed the descent of mother-daughter socialites into feral living. Can the new musical version re-create the magic?
  • Oscar castrates himself

    The Academy celebrates niceness, bleeps out "bitch" and pats itself on the back for good behavior. And what did they do to poor Jon Stewart?
  • "Jen" Doe

    Nancy Balbirer, the actress who kicked off the latest Jennifer Aniston scandal, shares her ex-best friend's secrets -- from pert nipples and plastic surgery to chicken cutlets in the bra.
  • Christmas with the Wilsons

    For one day each year, my mixed-up family of Jews, Muslims, Christians and New Agers gathers to sing karaoke carols, munch on jello mold and get wasted at church.
  • I invaded the White House press corps

    I had front row seats at the media's Great Slave Rebellion over Karl Rove. No wonder our democracy's in trouble.
  • The invariably naked Gregoire Colin

    The French stud-boy is usually too hot to keep clothed, and too interesting for Hollywood to ever take notice.
  • Oscar on life support

    Welcome to wartime Academy Awards: Cheap, tense and cobbled together from graphics rations donated by the E! Channel. Not even Chris Rock or Beyoncé -- or the travesty that is Antonio Banderas -- can save it.
  • The Duke of Hazard

    Hunter S. Thompson blasted through the world like a big-finned rocket of defiance and revulsion. He leaves a big burned hole and a safer, duller world.
  • The magic Christian

    All bow before the young British actor with more going on than any American actor, ever -- Garland, Brando, Sinatra, you name it. And he's not even a major star (yet).
  • Liza's horrible so-called life

    Mean boys. Badass girls. Your worst first-day-of-high-school nightmare, to the millionth power ... and in Marin County, Calif.
  • Letters

    J.T. Walsh is worth remembering! "Hero" must be taken in context! Readers respond to recent articles by Cintra Wilson and Charles Taylor.
  • Oh, that guy

    So you never knew his name. But surely you remember the face of J.T. Walsh, whose angry, cowardly, inwardly wrecked characters scowled their way into our collective memory.
  • The mightier Penn

    He transformed before us from a Caravaggio-like dancing teen to a love-handled bad guy. While Chris Penn has never received the attention of his older brother, he's deserved it -- and oh, so much more.
