First it was Mariah Carey tying the knot (no pre-nup!) with Nick Cannon, who’s hilarious. Why was Carey, with her bazillion octave range and 250 million dollar net worth marrying the star of Wild and Out? With no pre-nup? Because back when I was a wee lad, Mariah was the shit. In fact, Columbia records said she was the most successful artist of the 90s. Sure, Cannon is better than ex Tommy Mottola, but still, Nick Cannon?

And is the second most sucessful artist of the 90s, Alanis, god herself, doing much better in the romance department? Well, she is now, since she dumped Ryan Reynolds lame ass. So what was Alanis, who sold more than ten million copies of Jagged Little Pill, doing dating the Van Wilder? Well, according to Gawker, she told an audience that she doesn’t even remember his name anymore! Good for her.

I must, however, respect Ryan Reynolds gangster: he is engaged to Scarlett Johansson. Who knew that playing alongside Jessica Biel and a cultist tax evader in Blade III could return such great dividends? Good for him.

    please quit your hate on Wesley Snipes. Your categorization of him as a cultist tax evader is patently unfair. What cult is he a member of? Which of us has not have a situation with the IRS…? No one wants to pay taxes and good for him to look for a way to avoid what we all hate. This is nothing different than your forefathers fighting the American Revolution… they too were not spoken of highly, but look at where we are now… you have the freedom to slander a freedom fighter.

    for shame sir, for shame
