Oh my GOSH, you guys! It’s SNOWING where I live! We’ve already been out catching snowflakes on our tongues all morning; I just can hardly stand it. Of course it usually turns to rain but until it does…sqweeeeee!

Also, I watched 300 last night for the first time. Yes, I’m aware that everyone else in the free world has already seen this movie, but hey. I was prepared for a disgusting gore fest, but it actually wasn’t that bad - and who could resist this guy, eh?

Yum. Yum. Yum. GLORIOUS.

Ahem. On to the Saturday gossip, Snarky Gossip groupies! First, Evel Knieval has died. Honestly, I’m surprised he’s lived THIS long with the amount of injuries he’s sustained over the years.

Here’s a little epitaph:

Here Lies Evel Knieval.
I Kick Ass.

All righty! Here’s a great comment from Will Smith whose new movie I Am Legend looks AWESOME:

“I’ve never viewed myself as particularly talented. I’ve viewed myself as … slightly above average in talent,” the 39-year-old actor tells CBS’ “60 Minutes” in an interview scheduled to air Sunday.

“Where I excel is with (a) ridiculous, sickening work ethic,” Smith says. “While the other guy’s sleeping, I’m working. While the other guy’s eating, I’m working. While the other guy’s making love, I mean, I’m making love, too, but I’m working really hard at it!”

He is one of my favorite actors of all time. Oh and you KNOW I’ve got to show you the video, right? Here we go:

Oh, yeah, baby. Next, Anthony Hopkins is embarking on a world tour - apparently he’s a concert pianist? Who knew?

Not content with an Oscar-winning career playing characters from the cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter to Richard Nixon, Sir Anthony Hopkins has revealed his talents as a concert pianist, and is preparing to embark on a world tour.

In a series of shows to be performed in cities across the world, Hopkins will be taking centre stage on the piano, playing music that he has composed himself. The actor will be accompanied by an orchestra, and will narrate stories over the music.

You’re with me on that one, I just know it. Next, there is a rumor afloat that Heath Ledger and Lindsay Lohan are dating. Well, not dating so much as they are just having WILD MONKEY SEX.

Newly single actress Lindsay Lohan is the latest Hollywood starlet to be romantically linked to Michelle Williams’ ex, Heath Ledger. LilLo texted Heath for a sexual rendezvous while the two were in New York over Thanksgiving weekend.
The NYDN reported on Thursday that the two got into “at least one big fight” over Thanksgiving, though it’s unclear on which day the alleged big fight took place.
Heath was spotted hitting on “one pretty brunette after another” at the Beatrice Inn on last Friday, the same day Lindsay spent the day in Manhattan shopping with her sister. The pair reportedly hooked up later that evening.

I just find the thought of these two hooking up vaguely nauseating. Well, substitute the word “vaguely” for “can’t control the dry heaves, just horked on my keyboard, have to clean it up now, wait a second” and you’ll be closer to the mark. Let’s do something to get that image out of our collective heads….let’s see….ah! I’ve got JUST the thing: the new Halle Berry diamond ad:

Ahhhh….much better. Since we were talking about the Spice Girls - wait, we weren’t? At all? DAMN YOU DAYTIME COLD MEDICINE. DAMN YOU TO HELL. Well, let’s just go with it, shall we? Here’s another Christmas ad they shot for Tesco, it’s cute:

And here’s the first official footage of their world tour behind the scenes:

OMG, they are all so cute. I wonder if there are tickets still available? Probably not, I’m guessing. Well, that’s about it for this Saturday - what are you planning on doing today? I think a nap is probably in order, don’t you? Till tomorrow - I’ll leave you with this public service announcement from Charlie the Unicorn:

Talk to you soon, my loverlies!
