Coachella Festivals Puts Celebrities In A Blender And Mixes Em' Crazy

A wacky assortment of Hollywood types flocked to the Indio, CA desert this weekend for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Prince was the big act of Saturday evening, and I would sweat my ass off in the desert, too surrounded by clouds of Patchouli and annoying hipsters texting each other about how much the artists have sold out this year to see Prince. The rumors that he got almost 5 million to play were deemed false by tour organizers. But look at the wacky mix of celebs! Melanie Griffith? The Hoff? There's Sienna Miller! And the Hilton sisters with that hot little minx David Katzenberg. Kimberly Stewart looking like her hairdresser really hates her ass and finally showed her. The festival goes from Friday to Sunday. Besides Prince, other peforming artists included my favorite Canadian lesbian twin sister band Tegan & Sara, Death Cab for Cutie, Kraftwerk, the newly reunited Portishead (how does that chick stand the heat?), Jack Johnson and Pink Floyd's Roger Waters. So I guess I would have just gone on Saturday? Cause - blech. How in the hell does Dita Von Teese look like she just came out of Vogue in 90 degree weather? That broad has icewater in her veins. Sienna Miller looks like that girl who's selling friendship bracelets and/or blowjobs for a ride home. Photos: SplashNewsOnline.com More photos of the celebrities featuring Dita Von Teese, Sienna Miller, Kelly Osbourne, Kimberly Stewart, Jared Leto, Nicky Hilton, Paris Hilton, Benji Madden, David Katzenberg, Pink, Melanie Griffith and David Hasselhoff at the Coachella Music Festival are after the jump.

Top Chef: Spiced With Tension

Previously - Cute Fred Savage-esque teddy bear Manuel got sent home. Somehow twin hammerheads Andrew and Spike clung on, like leeches. Leeches that attack you when you go swimming in a lake in Maine in the 50s when you and your friends are on the way to see a dead body! The lesbians haven't taken over the house as of yet. But just you wait, soon all the men will be dead and it will be Angelina Jolie pictures on the walls and lots and lots of Tegan and Sara on the Bose. Bury that terrible yellow hat with Spike! I just realized that the Top Chef theme is terrible. It should be in a Lifetime series about gynecologists. Antonia is annoyed that she and Zoi were in the bottom last challenge. Zoi's ladyman Jennifer Beasty says that she's like a "fan" of Zoi and thought that it was "ridiculous" that Zoi was almost axed. Ryan talks about how he's not going home. He mouths it because we know he is, so it has to be spoken faintly. There is an Asian man standing with Padma in a yellow shirt. Ming Tsai (hot name) works here in Boston! Blue Ginger? I need to go there. See, this guest chef business works! I can probably afford a glass of water and a single spring roll but whatever. The quickfire challenge is about good taste. Spike's out. More Top Chef, after the jump!

Britney Spears Needs To Take Cyndi Lauper Up On Her Offer

Britney Spears has once again been invited to join the True Colors tour, aka Travelin' Gay Woodstock. The tour is headed up by Cyndi Lauper, and on its second go-round of promoting gay rights. 2008's line-up features Cyndi, the B-52's, the Indigo Girls, Tegan & Sara and Carson Kressley. He has a band? Anyway, Britney was asked to join the revue last summer but she declined on account of crazy. Cyndi is trying again this year, and Britney has once again been approached. She should totally do this. The gays are the only ones who are going to stick by her. They love a a human car accident. This could be her shining comeback moment. This could be how the movie ends. In triumph! Didn't you ever see "What's Love Got To Do With It?" Do it, Britney! By the way, the tour starts in my hometown of Boston on May 31st. Here's my review of last year's tour which I wrote while totally wasted. If they need me to MC, just ask. If you weren't aware, I'm a very big deal here in Beantown. Ok, I'm totally not but shut up, I have my dreams and self-delusion!
