Jon Gosselin Shopping For an Apartment In Trump Towers

Today we received a tip that Jon Gosselin was roaming our city. Then we learned of a "major" Jon and Kate announcement being made on Monday. Now we've received a tip that he's shopping for an apartment in Trump Towers. A reader writes: I was at my friends apt at trump towers on 66th and riverside blvd..... we were in her apt... then left to go to dinner... in the hallway was the realtor of the building and she was with JON from jon and kate plus 8. It was CLEARLY him. He had bloodshot eyes. We all rode the elevator together. He was looking at an apt on the 8th floor. Bloodshot eyes? Ha! One of the tips earlier today said that Jon was smoking a cigarette and had a big diamond stud in his ear. Jon Gosselin is a caged tiger just waiting to be unleashed! If he and Kate are divorcing and Jon moves to the Upper West Side, we just can't wait for all the sighting tips to start rolling in of Jon Gosselin, New York City's newest Lothario, picking up young girls in bars on Amsterdam Avenue (May we suggest "White Trash Wednesdays" at Brother Jimmy's Jon? Always a good time!) Ladies of New York—Are you ready to be taken by Jon Gosselin? Pic via MORE >>

big questions
OMG You Guys, What Are Jon and Kate Gonna Say On Monday??

We'd like to avoid this story as much as possible, because mostly it's just gross, but this is TOO BIG to pass up! Jon & Kate from hit reality show Jon & Kate Plus 8 are making a major announcement. It's all going down during a one hour special on Monday. Many people suspect they're going to announce their divorce, because Jon recently got caught maybe-cheating and Kate is also maybe-cheating and is a mean, mean lady. That the delicate pair are making this watershed life change on television should surprise no one who's participated in this failing American experiment in the past decade or so. Sigh. But then again, maybe it's not a divorce! What do you think? What Will Jon & Kate's Big Announcement Be?(polls) MORE >>

Che's Granddaughter Just Like Che: Naked, Covered in Produce

Che Guevara's granddaughter Lydia has graciously decided to start a "vegetarian revolution" by posing for PETA with "the torso naked, covered only by a sling loaded with carrots as bullets." Good for her! As Che himself once said: "In fact, if Christ himself stood in my way, I, like Nietzsche, would not hesitate to squish him like a worm." [El Mundo via Animal] MORE >>

The Facebook Status Update That Could End Up a Movie

Sure, people have made books out of tweet collections and websites about emails and fatty foods, but has anyone parlayed a lone Facebook update into old-media glory? This might actually happen, insanely enough. Agents from Beverly Hills' United Talent Agency and literary shop Fletcher & Co. are shopping a book and film deal built around a Facebook update from Lisa Hamilton Day (pictured), a book exec at Dreamworks. Here it is verbatim, as published in an update last week: "Lisa Hamilton Day's Pomeranian raided Chinese takeout bag overnight, opened and ate a fortune cookie. Her fortune: You have strong spiritual powers, and you should develop them." This could become "a tween series about Charlotte, the Pomeranian, who uses her newfound superpowers to save her owner's home after said owner loses her job," per Publisher's Weekly. Laugh all you want, but Beverly Hills Chihuahua grossed $145 million. [Publishers Weekly] (Pic via) MORE >>

The Daily Show's Jason Jones Investigates Iran's Hatred for Americans

Ever since we first heard that The Daily Show was sending Jason Jones to Iran to cover the election there, we've been anxious to see if they'd be able to find comedy in what was happening there. They did. In what Jon Stewart billed as the first in a series of reports from Iran, all filmed prior to the election, that they think will "present an interesting snapshot of a nation unaware of what awaits it," Jones took to the streets to ask ordinary Iranians about their hatred for Americans. Then he visited the home of an Iranian family in search of answers to the same questions, gifting the children with cartons of cigarettes, and they loved him anyway.
