*We are now in full on crush mode over Lainey, er, Elaine Lui, the 32-year old vancouverite gossip monger behind Lainey's Entertainment Update. Maybe it is all the smutty gossip, or maybe it is this, "In some circles, I'm known as the Chinese Gwyneth Paltrow. Minus the designer clothes, rail thin body, rock star husband, fruit inspired daughter, and Academy Award. Other than that, we are like the same person." [24 Hours]

*You know this kind of a headline, "Mayors to form super group", is so awesome it defies reason. I was hoping for some sort of touring rock show, but instead this is just the local mayors forming another group for meetings.

*As you maybe aware, I totally enjoy a good press release. Sometimes thier titles are ridiculous, Case in point: "Singer Michael Bublé Starts a New Tour and Performs All Over TV" All over TV? Gross. And thank god we read it, because Buble is making an appearance on Dancing With the Stars. This is good, how?

*China has warned tourists to Vancouver to watch thier wallets when travelling here. Thanks China. [Vancouver Sun]

*It really doesn't get any better than James Lipton reading lyrics from K-Fed's song "PopoZow."

*Then again, maybe it does get better. Karate Kid Cobra Kai T-shirt anyone? Wow.

*Yes, it does get better. "Sing Along Lovely Football" - It's developed by Strawberry Frog, and includes an online karaoke competition. Oh and it's really about selling Onitsuka (Asics) Tiger shoes

I'm happy for Lainey. After having heard her on CBC, she sounds genuinely happy with her new-found fame.

Still, I have to ask. Do we really need MORE Hollywood gossip??
