FREE COFFEE FOR FLORIDIANS

Starbucks Florida locations has released this press item:

Floridians have persevered through hanging chads, faulty touch screens and long lines, and for that, Starbucks is rewarding voters statewide on Election Day. On Tuesday, November 4th, voters who wear an "I Voted" sticker or show their voter registration card in any company-owned Starbucks Florida location will receive a complimentary tall brewed coffee.

This is the perfect opportunity to try the newly launched Thanksgiving Blend, a limited edition coffee created by Starbucks coffee experts in collaboration with Tom Douglas, renowned chef, culinary entrepreneur and the 2008 Bon Appétit Restaurateur of the Year. Thanksgiving Blend is a flavorful combination of full-bodied beans from Sumatra, with hints of fine herbs, and beans from Guatemala, which add subtle spice, notes of cocoa and a pleasant sparkle.

HALLOWEEN IDEAS: PLAY-DO FACE

HALLOWEEN IDEAS: pAArty FACE

To get the look: pAArty hard:

NICKY COVERS TACKY PAPER PAMPHLET PARADE

Nicky on vanity: "I'm not enamored with youth. There isn't wisdom in youth. My own sense of vanity is not that strong. I get ready in five minutes. I'm not a mirror person. But I like to look healthy -- the youthfulness is in health. It's very important. Maybe that comes from my mom having breast cancer. I've seen people suffer. So my desire to stay agile -- I want that! I want to be able to run and walk and hike, and get out there. I love being outdoors and I feel caged if I can't get out. To see the sun come up -- it puts me in a place to go, 'What a great day.'"

FOR ALL YOU FAGULOUS FASHIONETTES

If you are anything like us, our TV is set to Bravo. We love Working Out, Top Design, Shear Genius, Top Chef.......

With Project Runway in legal land. We just might write that series off. We love Michael and will miss his, "It's awful, just awful' or "slutty, slutty, slutty."

Or the German engineering or Meana Godzilla whose favorite word is "disjointed."

And our dad Tim Gunn, with a concerned frown behind his glasses......

But we're open to new ideas and we can be receptive to Bravo's news on Thursday.

The cabler has ordered a design-competition called The Fashion Show.

Viewers will pick the winner and the prize will include a retail deal.

In addition, Bravo announced a show in development, Celebrity Sew-Off, which will give well knowns a chance to display their design skills!

We'll sew(see-LOL) if the new shows take off, if not, we still have Top Chef to quench our hunger.

WEHO COUPLE TAKES DOWN DISPLAY

I posted earlier in the week on the couple that had a display of John McCain coming out of a chimney with flames and that VP nominee RepubliCUNT hanging from a noose.

The couple has removed the display:

"Sheriff's officials say resident decided to remove them after discussing the situation with West Hollywood Mayor Jeffrey Prang. 'My understanding is that the mayor had a long talk with the man and convinced him to bring it down. The homeowner began to realize what they had done caused a little more of a reaction than they had hoped for,' Sheriff's official Steve Whitmore says. Earlier today, protesters put up a pair of white sheets on sticks in effort to hide the display from the street Tuesday. Whoever put up the sheets could be cited for trespassing or infringing on free speech rights, said Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Oscar Butao. However, nobody at the house has complained so far. The U.S. Secret Service recently looked into the display and said there was no threat. Deputy Special Agent in Charge Wayne Williams called the display unusual but said so far it seems to be harmless."

A spokesbitch for Lee Baca, LA County Sheriff, states: "The sheriff made this clear: This is a country that has freedom of speech and we protect that right even when we think it's idiotic and stupid and in bad taste and wrong to do."

CUTTING ROOM FLOOR : ZACKY POOH

The whole reason anyone would sit through this awful movie is to see some Zac skin then leave.

Actually: get a FREE DVD, fast forward to the scene then let the DVD collect dust.

I'm rambling.....

Zacky had his shower scene--where it shows his little man chesteses-- Disney cut the scene from the HSM3 movie.

FROM SLIM (AD PAGES) TO NON EXISTENT

I posted earlier how Mens Vogue was slimmer due to ad page decline.

LA*SURFPUNK has learned that Mens Vogue is shuttering.

Jay Fielden was EIC does that mean he is going back to Arts Editor, his previous job, at Vogue?

We have a subscription for two years, are we getting a refund or an option to choose another Conde Nast mag in place of our precious Mens Vogue?

NEED HALLOWEEN IDEAS

Wanna go as one of your favorite fashion designer muses, may we recommend:

THE KAISER: A fan + white shirt+ black suit jacket+ biker chains hooked from waist to one back pocket+ black sunglasses+ fingerless gloves = Karl Lagerfeld

THE ROMANTIC: Pirate hat/newspaper boy/top hat/tiara+ blond wig with cascading curls + eyebrow pencil (for eyes and pencil-thin moustache)+ smirk= John Galliano

DRAGULOUS: Spray tan deep orange+ blond wig+ beige/khaki dress that matches said tan+duck lips= Donatella Versace

CAT WITH 9 LIVES: Wrap dress (DVF, preferably) + teased out mane+ one huge cocktail ring + say the word "fabulous" all through the night= Diane Von Fustenberg

ZEN MASTER: Black dress with cut out shoulders to reveal tan underneath + gold belt + pashmina wrap+ say "very modern" and "7 easy pieces" throughout the evening= Donna Karan

ARE WE TIRED OF THIS CRAZY BITCH YET?

NO!!

Now The Sun reveals that HER VADGESTY tried to control Mr. M's life with a "marriage contract."

The UK paper details the document which stated how many dates the couple should go on and how oft they would do the NASTY!!

Those are fightin words: Guy could only use certain words during verbal bouts "to resolve conflicts in a constructive way."

The insanity continues:

Guy, 40, was instructed never to shout at Madge, 50, but instead look her in the eye and say: “I understand that my actions have upset you, please work with me to resolve this.”

The marriage rules said both parties must “devote time to our sexual expressiveness” and “not use sex as a stick to beat one another”.

Sources said Madonna pinned the contract up in their New York home after they saw marriage counsellors two years ago, and would say to her husband, “Contract, Guy, contract” if he broke the rules.

The Uk paper made up what the "marriage contract" could look like:

BLOGGING IS A COMMUNITY EVENT

BECKS takes to his blog to settle all the talk (other bloggers postings) about his "loan" to AC Milan.

Don't look at me, I posted the story correctly--he is on "LOAN" ....He's still with LA Galaxy!!

Our BECK's pens:

“I know there’s been a lot of talk recently about the possibility of me joining AC Milan on loan in January during the MLS break. One of the reasons I want to train and play in Milan for a few months is the fact that the MLS season doesn’t run as long as the European season and having played most of my career in Europe, my body has been trained and geared not to have that amount of time off. Obviously, I will be honored to be given the chance to train and play with the likes of Ronaldinho and Kaka, but it also gives me the chance to keep my fitness up and carry that on for when I come back to the Galaxy for the new MLS season. Of course, nothing is confirmed yet, but there’s already been plenty of talk that I’ve bought a house out there and that I’m buying a jet, none of which is true. I will let you know when it happens.”

JUST BECAUSE

It's HUMP day &

we need some hot PEEN to look at.......

FORD FILM

The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Tom Ford is set to start production of his film, A Single Man, an adaption of Christopher Isherwood's novel.

"Colin Firth, Julianne Moore and Matthew Goode are set to star... Published in 1964, the novel centers on a gay man who, after the sudden death of his partner, is determined to persist in his usual routine, which is seen in the span of a single, ordinary day in Southern California. Firth is the gay man, an Englishman and professor who feels like an outsider in Los Angeles. Goode is the boyfriend who dies in a car accident and appears in flashbacks. Moore plays a friend of the professor. Ford adapted the screenplay with David Scearce. His company Fade to Black Prods. is producing along with Depth of Field's Chris Weitz and Andrew Miano and Robert Salerno of Artina Films."

MILK MAN

Castro Theatre in beautiful San Francisco was the scene for the premiere of Gus Van Sant's directed, Milk.

The stars were greeted with people in the backdrop with "Vote NO on Prop 8" signs.

We had Josh Brolin, James Franco, Diego Luna, Emile Hirsch, SF Mayor gavin Newsome, Focus Features CEO James Schamus to name a few at the screening.

Harvey Milk was the first openly gay man elected to a public office in the USA. He served on San Francisco's Board of Supervisors until he was assassinated in 1978.

ZACKY POOH: FOOTLOOSE AND FANCY FREE

A daily Hollywood must read, Variety reveals that Zac will star in a remake of Footloose.

I guess the opening numbers of HSM3 ($82M this weekend BO take) help catapult our little man meat to BO power player.

The dancing flick will start production Spring 2009.

The thesp will recieve a mid-seven-figure salary and script approval.

Way to go Pooh Pooh.

Our Zacky is going STRAIGHT to the A-list of actors.....

Maybe a remake of The Graduate with Zacky Pooh and Nicky Kidman. That would be a steamer.

I want credit for this casting!!

NOT SO BLIND ITEM

What actor, who has starred in a Ridley Scott vehicle, is always seen with a male "friend" and a shopping list in hand at places like Whole Foods (Fairfax/Santa Monica)??

DID POSEIDON PICK UP A COOL $100K FOR APPEARING AT AN LA POOL PARTY FOR TV CHEF'S WIFE & SWIMMING LAPS? DISCUSS.

OBAMA SPEAKS OUT ON WHITE SUPREMACISTS

"I think what's been striking in this campaign is the degree to which these kinds of hate groups have been completely marginalized. That's not who America is. That's not what our future is. What our future is what's reflected in this rally here today...I've got the best folks in the world [protecting me]. Secret service."
