I was glad to see this post from Fatties United bringing up the bit Jon Stewart did on The Daily Show last night. My husband and I watch TDS and Colbert on a daily basis; like so many people, it’s where I get most of my news.

It’s summertime, which means many of us are getting in pools and worrying about looking fat in our bathing suits when really we should be swimming and diving and doing cannonballs and swimming with dolphins and drinking drinks out of coconuts and being awesome!

Following in the footsteps of fellow Scientologist and heterosexual John Travolta, Tom Cruise is wearing a fat suit (and a bald wig) for a movie role. Photos have been leaked online.

I’ve been looking for the new trailer for The Heartbreak Kid online, ever since a friend told me about it. I was going to give up and try to describe it in words, but here it is online. It is the second video from the top, the one called “mother-in-law.” I think it [...]

Guess what? Hairspray has officially passed $100 million at the box office. This is a real achievement for a musical (only five have ever done it). Not only that, only three musicals (Grease, Chicago, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show) have ever made more money. And the movie is really fun [...]
