Heather Mills donates one million dollars in food to up the nutritional standards of the children in Hunts Point in the Bronx. She is named the honorary chairperson of Hunts Point Alliance for Children. She grilled a "meatless meat" bar-b-que for 1000 families living below the poverty level at the Hunts Point Back to School Fair. Afterwards, she went for a row boat ride.
They gave the writing award to The Colbert Report and the show award to the Daily Show (again) in the comedy/musical/variety show category. Jon Stewart says he is looking forward to the next administration.
They gave an Emmy to Tom Smothers for that show of his that caused such a fuss that it got cancelled by CBS in 1969.
Also, all these hosts of the reality/game shows are hosting the Emmys tonight, which says it all about the state of TV right there: Howie Mandel, Jeff Probst, Tom Bergeron, Ryan Seacrest and -- wait for it -- Heidi Klum. All of whom are up for outstanding Reality host.
Man, what a hottie. Oh, and there's a football game on the other station right now, which sort of explains the photo of the sexy Miss Klum.
They just gave Tina Fey another writing Emmy. Whooeee!!
You know, now I know why I'm not the biggest fan of the Emmys: they keep on celebrating a lot of shows that I never freaking watch. A lot of these shows have no appeal at all: Samantha Who, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, etcetera. Not exactly "guy's programming," which is why I am tuning in to the Yankee game tonight, the last one at the Stadium.
At least now they are showing some cartoon clip involving Bart Simpson that features Conan O'Brien. Good. My kind of television.
And so we find two staples of British pop in the '00s entering the Top 10 this week, which finally bumps out white trash-rock anthem "All Summer Long" and Eric Prydz's "Pjanoo."
After an impressive run where they racked up seven U.K. #1s, McFly seem to be slowing down. "Lies" makes their third single in a row to miss the top, debuting this week at #4 and becoming the boy band's lowest-charting single since 2005's "Ultraviolet/The Ballad Of Paul K."
Meanwhile, Will Young's "Changes"—a track that seems like it's already been around forever at this point thanks to the Internet—moves up to #10 based on digital downloads alone, ahead of its retail CD single availability tomorrow.
"Changes" marks Will's 10th single to make the U.K. Top 10—an even more impressive feat when you consider he's only had 11 total. (Though if you count his appearance on the Ultimate Shit Single Of The New Millenium—Band Aid 20's "Do They Know It's Christmas"–you could knock those numbers up by one. But let's not.)
Elsewhere, lest you actually believed that Katy Perry was a lesbian, that's her boyfriend Travis McCoy's band, Gym Class Heroes, underneath her there at #6 with "Cookie Jar." That's right...cookie jar. Like Travis shoving four fingers up Katy's cookie jar, and pulling out a pair of grandpa's dentures.
On that note, it's groovy to see Jennifer Hudson at #15 with "Spotlight," a jam that's taken forever to crawl up the chart here in the States (where it's at #41 currently).
But fuck it all—bring on new Take That!
The U.K. Top 10:
1. "Sex On Fire" - Kings Of Leon *2 weeks* 2. "I Kissed A Girl" - Katy Perry 3. "When I Grow Up" - Pussycat Dolls 4. "Lies" - McFly 5. "Disturbia" - Rihanna 6. "Cookie Jar" - Gym Class Heroes feat.
