Kathy Landin is a freelance internet pop-culture junkie (and web video producer). For a brief time in 2011, she was THIS close to being Charlie Sheen's social media intern for the summer. She's blogged for local TV stations, anonymous dating adventures and stupid advice columns. Mostly she entertains herself by practicing the fine art of idiocy, which you can watch in Kathy Landin's "I'm an Idiot" Show. Or, if you have a short attention span, get 140 characters of idiocy on Twitter.

Josh Brolin + Thomas Gibson Arrested on Alcohol-Related Charges
In today's StarCrush Police Beat (we're still playing with the name), seems two celebs got their drink on and wound up with a pretty new pair of stainless steel bracelets for their trouble.
Brad Pitt Is Now Free to Visit China and Maybe Adopt All Its Orphans
If you’re in China and you’ve been dying for a chance to run into Brad Pitt on the street, it’s been a sad 15 years or so for you. After his role in 1997’s ‘Seven Years In Tibet,’ Pitt was banned from ever entering the country since its government had a teeny tiny problem with how it was portrayed in the film.
But a mysterious tweet from Pitt over the weekend made it seem like he might be allowed
Tina Fey + Amy Poehler Pimp the Golden Globes With Another Snarky Promo [VIDEO]
Perhaps the best thing about this plan to have Tina Fey and Amy Poehler host the Golden Globes this month is all of their fun little promos leading up to it. For weeks we’ve been served these tasty little treats as appetizers to prepare us for the big awards meal.
Now we’re not sure if we’re hungry or excited. Probably both.
Megan Fox Died on Twitter Right Before She Joined
If you’re a fan of Megan Fox, you’ve been on a quite a roller coaster ride of emotions this week. First, the actress and new mom was the victim of one of those infamous Twitter death hoaxes.
And then she joined the social networking site shortly after being reported dead.
Coincidence? Maaaaybe.
Nancy Pelosi Will Guest Star on ‘30 Rock,’ Making Politics Even Funnier Than They Already Are
We can't hide the fact that we already have a sad because Tina Fey’s bouncing baby television series ‘30 Rock’ will air its final episode on Jan. 31. But at least they’ve done what any good show would do: scheduled some surprise guest stars to finish things with a bang.
Included among them? Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.
Go Ahead and Think Kelly Clarkson Is Into Girls, She Doesn’t Mind
Despite the fact that she was a part of the embarrassment that was ‘From Justin to Kelly,’ the adorable Kelly Clarkson has yet to do anything that can make us not absolutely love her. She’s talented, humble, loves her fans as much as they love her -- and she’s cute as a kitten calendar.
And now she says she doesn’t care if people think she’s a lesbian. Which makes her all the more adorable.

Missed Connections – Who Are They?
YOU: You're the ever-nerdy yet still desirable artsy/moody type we all love to take home to mother. Unlike the rest of us, you’re too good for mainstream entertainment so we don’t get to see you in a lot of shows or movies (except for that super hot voice of yours in every last animated ‘Madagascar’ incarnation). I like you even with all the product in your hair.
Sofia Vergara and Her Fiance Rang In the New Year With a Bar Fight Like Loving Couples Do
While the rest of us were toasting a happy new year, Sofia Vergara and her politician fiancé, Nick Loeb, were getting started on a scrappy new year by engaging in some kind of bar brawl in Miami.
We don’t like to tell people how to be (okay, that's kind of a lie), but it’s possible there were some unfortunate geographical choices made that brought the whole thing on.
What the Tabloids Taught Us While Waiting In Line This Week
We had some time to read the tabs while we were waiting in line to buy champagne and confetti this week and here’s what we learned from National Enquirer, Us Weekly, In Touch, Globe and Life & Style. Even in a new year, avoiding the express line has its privileges. ...

Twitter Wrings Humor Out of Whatever That Was the NRA Said Today
After NRA vice-president Wayne LaPierre stood up in front of a bunch of news cameras on Friday and spewed the crap for which the organization is so well known, the Twittersphere lit up with 140-character opinions -- many of them funny -- about the whole thing.
Because sometimes if you don't laugh, you'll just break down in hysterical sobs of disbelief. And no one wants puffy eyes for holiday parti
Rebel Wilson Has a Cause: Hosting the MTV Movie Awards [VIDEO]
It’s been a while since there’s been a reason to be excited about the MTV Movie Awards -- really, how many movie award shows are we expected to sit through with enthusiasm -- but it looks like 2013 is the year that all changes.
In a very clever move indeed, producers have tapped the clearly unconventional (and very funny) Rebel Wilson to host what promises to be a rather inappropriate MTV Movie A
‘Fox and Friends’ Lands on the Naughty List By Putting Santa on the Spot [VIDEO]
If you had the chance to talk one-on-one with Santa Claus, would you use that opportunity to entangle him in your militant and utterly insane crusade against the phrase “happy holidays”?
Of course you would -- if you're one of the hosts of ‘Fox and Friends.'
As Usual, ‘Sesame Street’ Teaches Us All Something – This Time, About Life and Death [VIDEO]
On Friday, as we all reeled from the horrific Sandy Hook school shootings in Connecticut, we were torn about how to address them here. This isn't a hard news site, but at the same time, it seemed odd to ignore the situation completely.
Ultimately, we chose to carry on with business as usual and hope that maybe it provided a bit of a break from reality from those who so desperately needed it.

Well, Here’s a Surprise: Amy Winehouse May Not Have Died of Alcohol Poisoning After All
When Amy Winehouse died in July of 2011 at the tender age of 27, few people were surprised when the autopsy revealed acute alcohol poisoning was responsible for her early demise. She partied hard, had her issues with various substances and just seemed like the kind of celeb to burn out rather than fade away.
So it's a bit of a shock to find out that that the cause of her death may have been miside
Tina Fey + Amy Pohler’s Golden Globes Promo Never Gets Old [VIDEO]
As you know, we were already pretty stoked to find out that Tina Fey and Amy Pohler would be hosting the upcoming Golden Globes show.
And their first promo just made us giddy all over again.
