Millions of people have been bitten by the vampire recently. Twilight's gorging of the weekend box office (earning $70.6 million, the second highest ever for an indie film), and HBO's True Blood season finale are its metaphorical bloody bite marks.

For those of you who haven't partaken of...

As a good Canadian, I have always found you, America, to represent everything to be wary of. You've always seemed overly big, bright and loud. You produced Donald Trump, George Bush and Britney Spears: all truly, madly, deeply, anti-Canuck. With some few exceptions, you come across as self-interested, self-absorbed and...

"Madonna's adopted son would be better off in Malawi,'" says his biological father in the U.K.'s Daily Mail.

Here's a game. Match the tabloid quote to the new mom it is discussing: Jamie Lynn Spears or Angelina Jolie.

"Having [another] baby now would only be a recipe for disaster,"

Sports fans may still be watching, but the Olympics have gone quiet on the pop culture radar. The Games used to...

To be a strong woman, a good feminist and even save the world, you need to be a bitch, according to a recent spate of articles.

Although the babies are mere days old, there's a price tag on their bald, wrinkly, blind-ish little heads: $11 million for photos of the pair. And some say it could go as high as $20 million before the bidding war is done.

Back in 1989, the National Enquirer...

Madge and Guy, on the rocks. For those of you who don't follow trash, that's not a new drink but an unsubstantiated story about the possible break up of two A-list celebs: Madonna and Guy Ritchie. But it's not the gossip that's interesting, rather a quote about the breakup from...

The tabloids paint Britney Spears' as a neglectful, deranged, drug-addicted mother who frequently neglects and even endangers her children, and whose partying ways are responsible for her demise. The video and images of Amy Winehouse smoking crack cocaine have been widely circulated, along with a flurry of recent articles alleging...

After endless amounts of drool over sexy male nerds (like the recent NY Observer piece about male "nerds of steel," hailing the arrival of geeks who are buff), many men and women are cheering about the "revenge of the nerdette" -- the rise of the sexy nerd girl....

So You Think You Can Dance, the underdog but odds-on-favourite in the race to be America's Next Top Reality Show, got going for real last night. If you've been watching for the last few weeks, you've seen hundreds of ugly ducklings and a few swans audition, all with stardust in...
