The rock et roll pioneer and hardcore curmudgeon died today in San Marcos, San Diego. He made a name for himself when he discovered a young Tina Turner, and the rest is Academy Award-nominated history. Toward the end of his life, he was remorseful about his treatment of Tina. "I know what I am in my heart. And I know regardless of what I've done, good and bad, it took it all to make me what I am today." We hear you, Ike. We hear you. more ›

The only thing we love more than shopping and cocktails is shopping while sipping cocktails. (Of course, we've made many poor shopping decisions while under the influence, but that's besides the point.) more ›

Ashley Olsen: "Victoria, your bangs are amaze." Victoria Traina: "Huh?" Ashley Olsen: "You know, an abbreved version of 'amazing.'" Victoria Traina: "Whatev, I don't abbrev words that end in -ing." Dude with Hat: "Excuse me, is this the Homeless Chic party? I just wanted to make sure. I don't want anybody to think I'm, like, actually homeless or anything." Victoria Traina: "We are NOT dressed in Homeless Chic, you plebeian. Don't you know who we are?" Dude with Hat: "I know shorty over here is Michelle Tanner, but I have no clue who you are. Were you one of the girls on Flavor of Love? Victoria Traina: "If you don't know who I am, then you prolly don't belong here." Dude with Hat: "Wait a sec, I think I had driver's ed with you at A-Safe Way Driving School in the Sunset. Now I remember you. Everybody in our class thought you were on drugs." Ashely Olsen: "Omg, that was a super-awk townie moment. I'm going to start hanging out with Vanessa now. She's been looking way cuter than you lately, anyway." more ›

...are priests. But he probably has to pay them, too. Sad. more ›

As far as we know, our mom is NOT behind this movement. But we're totally flattered that blogswarm at Calitics thinks we should run for mayor. We're even more flattered that our CrackBerry Chronicles are "dreaded" by someone other than Gavin Newsom. HIGHlarious! more ›

As previously reported, San Francisco style appears to be everywhere nowadays. Unless, of course, you happen to be a perspiring actress in desperate need of a personal assistant/paid BFF. (Um, does the job have benefits? And does she have a Black Card we can use to pick out new coats for her at Neiman's? Just curious.) We don't dish out our advice for free. more ›

"I love that word 'relationship'. Covers all manner of sins, doesn't it? I fear that this has become a bad relationship. A relationship based on the President taking exactly what he wants and casually ignoring all those things that really matter to, erm... Britain. We may be a small country but we're a great one, too. The country of Shakespeare, Churchill, the Beatles, Sean Connery, Harry Potter. David Beckham's right foot. David Beckham's left foot, come to that. And a friend who bullies us is no longer a friend. And since bullies only respond to strength, from now onward, I will be prepared to be much stronger. And the President should be prepared for that." - Hugh Grant, as Prime Minister, in Love Actually more ›

Rosario Dawson: "Dude, I can't believe you're from Daly City." Sam Rockwell: "I know, right? I'm not supposed to be anywhere." more ›

We've never been to London, so we've never shopped at Topshop. Anybody we've met who's ever shopped at Topshop always raves about it. "It's like H&M, only better!" they say. Usually followed with, "When's it coming to the US?" more ›

Gavin Newsom, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums tried to out-macho each other last night at the MacArthur Maze. more ›

Yesterday, we were shocked to find this picture of our homeboy, SF Bay Guardian publisher Bruce Brugmann, posted on his blog. more ›

Realizing his town hall meeting is a farce, Gavin Newsom resorts to drinking his own Kool-Aid. more ›

Because we're not ashamed to admit we actually paid to see NSync live when we were 17, miss Justin's white boy 'fro, and still have the program from that concert somewhere in our parents' house...Because the stars finally aligned, and both Justin Timberlake AND Prince William are single (call us, Willie, we totes fancy you!)...And because we want Justin to dedicate "What Goes Around Comes Around" to Gavin Newsom when JT comes to town in September. more ›

Alex Tourk: "No, I'm not putting my beak in. Somebody needs to let that go, unless they want me to help them run for mayor. In that case, I know a guy who knows a guy, and y'all know where to find me..." more ›
