By Dodai The story is called "Crazy In Love." "After months of steamy, no-strings-attached hookups" Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer "have decided what they want to be to each other: Full time lovers." Jen "had an epiphany" and realized that "not every romantic connection needs to lead to marriage....

By Dodai He gave us the best years of Sex and the City on TV and can be credited for reviving the chick flick in Hollywood when the movie version grossed $415 million.

By Intern Katy Elijah Wood and Shirley Manson star in a new ad campaign for Oliver Peoples Spring 2010 Resort Collection.

By Sadie Maybe Hortense is right, and when another ten years have passed, Friends will start to feel nostalgic and even iconic. But I'm just not sure it's good enough. I suspect things have to be really good - like My So-Called Life - or Saved by the Bell campy to really pass into the firmament. That's why...

By Dodai Jennifer Grey on Patrick Swayze: "When I think of him, I think of being in his arms when we were kids, dancing, practicing the lift in the freezing lake, having a blast doing this tiny little movie we thought no one would ever see.

By Lindsay It's impossible to describe Pulling without mentioning Sex And The City (and its creators have openly said that the show was designed as an anti-SATC), so let's get that out of the way: Pulling is like Sex And The City, but funny. Pulling is like Sex And The City, but dark, pessimistic, nihil...

By Sadie Yesterday I wrote on an Esquire article that called for "better chick flicks" that men could get into. Well, Mad Men is widely considered to be the best-written show on TV, a "men's show" whose secret is its women - onscreen and off. But there's an irony at work: these women are writing about ch...

By Dodai Rihanna and Chris Brown: In the same NYC hotel for about two days. "It was just a coincidence" and they never saw each other.

By Margaret Brüno, which opens tomorrow, is similar to Sacha Baron Cohen's first film Borat, but according to the reviews it's more mean-spirited and has even less of a plot.
