Think high school yearbook superlatives — if Kesha and Lana Del Rey were classmates.
Most egregious example of the pantsless trend: Kesha on ABC's Rising Star
An epidemic has emerged among the young and leggy lately: walking out of the house without your pants. Naya Rivera and Lady Gaga were vying for the highest-hem title — until Kesha showed up on prime-time network TV last weekend wearing a dress so miniit must have simply been missing its matching trousers, right? And those Hollywood Boulevard heels? Not helping the cause.
Best evidence that the kids are indeed all right: Frances Bean Cobain dressing down Lana Del Rey
Born to an off-and-on junkie mom and drug-addicted dad who committed suicide, Cobain could have gone in one very dark direction. But she cemented her status as grounded way beyond her 21 years last weekend by calling out Del Rey — who had told The Guardian that "I wish I was dead already" — and other famous fatalists for romanticizing the young and gone. "I'll never know my father because he died young & it becomes a desirable feat because ppl like u think it's 'cool,'" Cobain tweeted. "Well, it's (expletive) not. Embrace life, because u only get one life." Del Rey did tweet back to Cobain to explain her comments: "I liked him because he was talented not because he died young. … I don't find that part of music glam either."
Best parent of the week — nay, year: Sting
He has six kids — count 'em! — and yet the Police-man's brood most certainly does not need to shop at Burlington Coat Factory. Or do they? Sting told Britain's Mail on Sunday that his trust-fund-free children have to actually work for a living. "All my kids know that, and they rarely ask me for anything, which I really respect and appreciate." And which we really respect and appreciate!
Best example of celebrity justice at work: Kim Kardashian passed over for a Walk of Fame star yet again
She's among the most famous people on the planet, but, it seems, even fame can't guarantee you a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Despite husband Kanye West's best efforts, the fame police — aka the Walk of Fame Selection Committee — won't cave. They still have standards! Star-worthy for 2015? Will Ferrell. Melissa McCarthy. Amy Poehler. And, um, Pitbull. Sorry, Kim.
Most oh-no-she-didn't TMI bomb: Jennifer Lopez's tacit diss of Ben Affleck's, uh, performing abilities
Poor Affleck. First, there was the ridiculousness that was Bennifer. Then uproar over his #Batfleck casting. And now, Bennifer is rearing its pompadoured head again as Affleck's ex got almost explicit about their years together — in bed. Lopez didn't exactly tell Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live last week that Affleck was no sultan of the sheets. But she did say that in her "limited experience" (nice one, J.Lo!), singers and dancers were better in bed than actors. Yee-ouch!
Most shark-jumping cover of 'Let It Go': Pearl Jam
Disney's mega-hit Frozen and its ubiquitous song, Let It Go, have so saturated pop culture that they're now infiltrating overseas Pearl Jam concerts. Eddie Vedder & Co.performed the Idina Menzel-originated tune at a concert in Milan, weaving it into their song Daughter. We understand Vedder could just be expressing his inner Elsa, but maybe it's time to let this song go.
