VH1 just announced the newest cast of Celebrity Rehab with Doctor Drew. Jeremy London, Janice Dickinson and Jason Wahler are just three of the latest “celebrities” to go through detoxification and treatment at the Pasadena Recovery Center. The show originally was supposed debut sooner than late 2010, but the show had trouble finding big name addicts willing to air their dirty laundry and showcase their withdrawal symptoms. Seriously, who would want to participate in tear-filled group sessions on primetime TV? Even Tila Tequila had enough sense to drop out after initially committing to the show.

You knew the minute Jeremy London’s “kidnapping” slash forced to smoke marijuana ordeal made headlines everywhere, he’d show up in this orchestrated public mea culpa. It’s so sad how the former Party of Five hottie, was unable to translate his early success to a long-term career. On the flip side, I’m surprised it took this long for former supermodel and ANTM judge Janice Dickinson to seek counseling from Dr. Drew. To be perfectly honest, if I had to spend a summer in the jungle with Spiedi, I ‘d probably have a substance problem as well. I can’t even count how many reality shows this marks for Miss Janice. Looks like she has a famewhore addiction too.

Another person I’m surprised is finally taking action is Lauren Conrad’s former beau, Jason Wahler. The former Hills star has been arrested multiple times for DUI and was even holed up in a Mexican jail for a while. I’m sure he was a popular “toy” during his incarceration.

Since 1997, Los Angeles based N2N Bodywear has created swimwear apparel for the gay traveler and adventurous metrosexual. Swimwear doesn’t get any gayer SLASH skimpier than this. N2N Bodywear isn’t for the faint-hearted. You’re definitely an exhibitionist, work hard on your body and have no qualms letting it all out.

Designer Andrew Makay’s vision was to offer swimwear that made his customers feel special and sexy while embracing the male physique to the fullest. His mission statement is “to provide the most comfortable, quality apparel to make any man feel masculine, sexy, and confident.” In my opinion, you have to be all three to successfully pull off some of their designs.

Flip flops and t-shirts are as synonymous with summer as the beach and ice cream trucks. So it’s only natural that Brazilian flip flop powerhouse, Havaianas, and the community-based t-shirt company Threadless hooked up to create funky unique flip flops.

Over 600 artist submissions from all around the world were pitched, but only a few designer flip flops were created to match an accompanying Threadless tee. What better to way to spend those hot summer days than in the classic comfort of Brazil’s national sandals and a hot new tee.

During my childhood, I would spend a portion of every summer in California. Besides playing with my cousins, hanging by the beach and watching a lot of MTV, one of my favorite things to do was go to a baseball game. My uncles would take turns taking myself and my cousins to watch the Oakland A’s play.

I was such a fanatic. Literally, I would dress in Athletics attire from head to toe. I looked like a such little freak, dressed in green and yellow. On top of that, I would only want to go on special days when they were giving free shizz out. I could never get enough Oakland paraphernalia to satisfy my needs.

Normally whenever we go San Francisco, it’s always for a short timeframe to attend a family obligation (wedding, graduation, funeral, reunion). With so many cousins and family living in the area, I’m down there at least twice a year, but barely do anything outside the familial unit. I digress. So recently when Brian and myself were in the Bay Area to just hang and not for any obligation, I thought I would take Brian to experience one of my favorite childhood things.

Annie “the saboteur” may have been evicted from the Big Brother household last night, but is there a chance she might be coming back? Based on the events after her eviction interview with Julie Chen, it certainly is a possibility. Traditionally the houseguests voted out before the jury are allowed to be interview by media and return to their hometowns, but this year CBS is sequestering the early evictees as well. They aren’t even allowing them to do interviews by phone or in person, but email only. That way CBS handlers can prevent any potentially spoiler information from flowing to the evicted cast member.

It could be nothing and I could be merely speculating here, but if history repeats itself, odds are pretty good an evicted houseguest could be coming back. It worked for Amy (Season 3), Kaysar (Season 6) and Sharon (Season 9). To keep the integrity of the game intact, CBS sequesters the jury so they don’t read any online material or find out other contestants’ confessionals. That way their final vote could be as pure as possible. By also sequestering early evictions, the returning contestant doesn’t have an unfair advantage should he/she return.

Looking for interesting, attractive, colorful Asian-Americans to cast in a reality show similar to ‘Jersey Shore’…We need attractive Asian-Americans with lively, strong and unique personalities between the ages of 18 to 30 with equally interesting life stories and perspectives to share, especially individuals who know about and/or experienced the Koreatown life. If you are not Asian but are obsessed with Asian culture or people in some way, email us and please explain.

That’s what the casting folks posted on Craiglist in hopes of finding the Asian Snooki and Situation. R&B singer Tyrese along with his production company HQ Pictures is producing a reality show that features attractive and colorful Asian Americans similar to that of Jersey Shore, The Hills and The Real World, but set in the backdrop of LA’s Koreatown.

The cast of K-Town were seen at several spots (BCD, Bohemians, and BoBo’s) in Los Angeles’ famed Korean district. The cast and crew were there filming the pilot episode. From left to right in the picture above are Young Lee, Jennifer Field, Joe Cha, Scarlet Chan, Violet Kim, Peter Le, Steve Kim, and Jasmine Chang.

Peter Le is already the one being singled out due to his muscular physique. While the real “Situation” was an exotic dancer, the Korean version ups Mike one notch, since he’s apparently a pornstar and exhibitionist. You can see his junk and his trunk on his personal website.

WOOF. That’s one word I could use to describe this week’s man crush, Taylor Kinney. With his brooding dark sexy looks, it’s no wonder I chose this actor slash former model to fawn over. The Pennsylvanian native is best known for his role as Luke Gianni on Fashion House (MyNetworkTV) or for his recurring role on NBC’s now-canceled Trauma. All that is about to change during Fall 2010, when he joins the super sexy Vampire Diaries cast on The CW.

According to The CW press release, Kinney will portray Mason Lockwood, the easy going uncle of Tyler (Michael Trevino). Not only is he cool, athletic, super hot, and mysterious, but he’s also dangerous, flipping in an instant if he’s crossed. With anything vampire-related super hot these days, expect Taylor’s stock to rise when he debuts on the popular show. Expect a lot of teenage girls and gay men’s libidos to catch on fire upon his arrival.

Kinney was raised alongside his three brothers by their single mother. Before developing an interest in acting, he studied business management at West Virginia University. Like all aspiring actors, he practiced his craft in theatre in such plays as Fallout and A Streetcar Named Desire. His feature films credits include Furnace, White Air and Diary of a Champion.
