And Now, A Wise Brother Fashion Report:
Hot: Cate Blanchett LOVED how low her dress was cut in the back.
Super Hot: Reese Smokin' Witherspoon She was so SMOKIN' in that aqua dress that I have completely forgotten about her drunken arrest last year. That chin looks like it could do just the right kind of damage . . . if she placed it in just the right crevice.
Made Me Swoon: Jessica Chastain Classy . . . elegant . . . fire . . . down . . . below! She looked like a very naughty and promiscuous princess.
Pregnant Minxes: Kerry Washington, Drew Barrymore, and Olivia Wilde Olivia Wilde was the only one who went with the SKIN-TIGHT look. Which do you prefer?
Best Looking Waitress: Julia Roberts Usually when someone approaches me in an outfit like this, she's calling me "Sugar" and handing me a 10-cent cup of coffee.
Moisture-inducing: Usher Yes, he's responsible for Justin Bieber. But even that won't convince your wife or girlfriend to turn on this CHOCOLATY DREAMBOAT.
Best Pasty Flasher: Robin Wright Why did the night's only wardrobe malfunction have to happen to a 47-year-old woman with too much self-respect to take a chance on flashing nipple? Couldn't they have found SOMETHING to nominate Miley for?
Most Insane Shoulder Piece: Paula Patton Speaking of Miley, how could ANYBODY think Robin Thicke would be interested in her when he's got THIS waiting for him at home? I don't even know what that white blob on her shoulder is supposed to be, and I'd STILL hit it!
Cutest Spinners: Mary Lou Retton, Hayden Panettiere If you don't know what a "spinner" is, check out the Urban Dictionary. WARNING!!! It's sexual. And yes, I would STILL do it to Mary Lou, because you KNOW she's still just as limber as ever!
Would Not Throw Out of Bed: Zoe Saldana I wouldn't mind trekking into HER darkness.
Would Throw Out of Bed: Lily Rabe
Would Let Him Handle Me in the Restroom Stall: Matthew McConaughey He still looks like he could gain a few pounds, but he fills out that tux nicely anyway. Unfortunately, he thanked his sexy wife during his acceptance speech. I hate him for that.
Would Invite Her Into My Restroom Stall: Kate Mara That's a sweet valley of cleavage right there.
Would Allow Over the Bra in the Limo, But That's It: The Derns! I'd let either one of them have me . . . while the other one watched. And filmed. Although I guess Laura would have to be the one filming. Bruce doesn't look like he has the first idea how to work a smartphone.
Pamela Anderson Has Remarried Rick Salomon . . . The Guy from the Paris Hilton Sex Tape
PAMELA ANDERSON has married RICK SALOMON for the SECOND time. Salomon is probably best known as the male "star" of the PARIS HILTON sex tape.

Ladies: Zac Efron Would Respect You If You Let Him Give You the Business on the First Date
Pretty much any guy will have sex on the first date. But a lot of times he loses respect for the woman who let him slide into home so easily. It's totally hypocritical, but it happens.
Not with ZAC EFRON, though. If you give Zac your most precious gift after just one dinner, you can STILL be his queen. He says, quote, "Sex is a beautiful thing. I don't object."
Whitney Houston's Daughter Married Her Adopted "Brother"

3. For some reason, lesbian songwriter LINDA PERRY grabbed STEVEN TYLER'S crotch.
4. KIM KARDASHIAN and KENDALL JENNER posted a selfie in yoga pants. Then Kim posted a shot of her ass in a tight black dress.
(In related news, do Kim and KANYE WEST want to get married in space? Probably not, but it makes for good gossip fodder.)
Justin Bieber Got Caught Egging His Neighbor's House

How Much Nudity Is There Really on "Girls"? 3%
A lot of people talk about the nudity on the HBO show "Girls" . . . but how much nudity does the show ACTUALLY have? Some guy went through the entire first two seasons, and he found that "only" 3% of the show includes nudity. And 64% of the time, it's LENA DUNHAM getting naked.
Some guy went through the entire first two seasons to find out . . . and he discovered that "only" 3% of the show includes nudity.
Obviously, 3% IS quite a bit . . . but three minutes of nakedness for every 100 minutes of screen time doesn't seem like as much as you'd expect, especially for all the talk about the show's CONSTANT nudity.
Here are some of this guy's other findings: 74% of the nudity was female, which means a good 26% was MALE nudity. Not surprisingly, Lena's character Hannah was naked the most . . . she accounted for 64% of the nudity.
Roughly half the nudity came from sex scenes. 39% was during, quote, "fun" . . . 5% was "going to and / or being in bed," another 5% was bathing, and there were a few other instances that fell under the categories "peeing" and "other."
