Kanye West as JESUS

Jessica Simpson the "house wife"

“My confusion there was that I hate fish,” says Simpson. “But I love tuna, and there was a half of a second there where I thought maybe it could be chicken. ‘Cause I liked it, and I don’t like fish. Unless it’s from Long John Silver’s and deep-fried.”

Britney Spears before we saw her vag

“I know how to drink,” says Britney. “Me and my mom will have a glass of wine together, and that’s fine.

I just sit there and go all quiet, because I hate to lose control.”

Fergie ditches the guys and ditches her clothing

She licks her lips and says, almost in awe, “Brown butter.” Then a moment later, to herself, “Ferguson, behave.” She orders the baby chicken, no brown butter.

“Me and my girlfriends would get ready, go out to the club, come home, change into my faux-fur coats and my sunglasses and rent a limo — spending all my child-actor money — and go to the club Garage that would start at 6 a.m. and dance till 12. Then I graduated to crystal, and it started being more about going to Home Depot at four in the morning and getting crafty at home. It became less of a fun thing and more of a habit.”

Christina Ricci and her forehead

“I like the way my own feet smell. I love to smell my sneakers when I take them off.”

Gossip Girls Dig ICE CREAM

“They didn’t tell us anything about the concept,” Blake Lively says. “We didn’t know we’d have any props, but we saw this big fun table — like a kid’s birthday party. Um, some of it was a little mature for a kid’s birthday party. Some of the … inflatable items.”

Jenny McCarthy Digs HOT DOGS

“My philosophy of dating is to just fart right away. "

"Definitely not frequent. Actually, I’m not a huge fan of it. I mean, it is what it is, a safe haven, there when you need it, and I don’t feel guilty about it. But I always like to do everything at its best, and that just seems like settling, doesn’t it?’’

Prince, being Prince.

Zac Efron....making me feel like a pedophile.

Ashton Kutcher teasing us.

“The Bushes were underage-drinking at my house. When I checked outside, one of the Secret Service guys asked me if they’d be spending the night. I said no. And then I go upstairs to see another friend and I can smell the green wafting out under his door. I open the door, and there he is smoking out the Bush twins on his hookah.”

Billy Idol- why didn't Justin wear THIS outfit?

When you could pick any chick you wanted after a show, what did you look for in a girl?

“When you could just grab their hand and pull them toward where you wanted to go.”

There must have been eighty girls like that.

“Yeah, but some want to talk and do this and that. When we did arenas, I had a mate go out and find young ladies. AIDS fucked up everything. What did you have to worry about till then? Gonorrhea you could get rid of. Herpes was the worst.”

You probably had that already.

“Yeah! Let’s give it to each other and get on with it! Back then, it used to be like a Fellini film: nonstop drugs and sex, and then we’d happen to do a gig at some point.”

The Rolling Stones- Mick's sexy body, almost as good as the music.

‘I came into music just because I wanted the bread. It’s true. I looked around and this seemed like the only way I was going to get the kind of bread I wanted."

Shaun White being a BAMF.

“The Olympics is really awesome, but for some snowboarders, it’s not the biggest thing in the world. So we were pretty lighthearted about the whole situation. But these biathlon guys were intense. And it was even sketchier because they have guns. They ski really far and then they shoot things. So I was thinking, ‘If I mess with these guys, they will ski me down and then gun me down.’”

Robert Downey Jr. Looking Like a Crazed Prison Inmate

But still looking MIGHTY hot.

SNOOP! is SANTA!

Justin Timberlake enters the wet t-shirt contest

“I don’t really think I’m bringing sexy back,” he says. “But when a twenty-eight-year-old male or female is standing in a club in New York City at 2:30 in the morning and that fuckin’ song comes on, I want them to feel like they are. That’s what music should do. When I was a kid and I heard ‘I Wanna Hold Your Hand,’ I wanted to find someone’s hand to hold. When I listen to ‘Hotel California,’ I feel like I’m on coke. Sort of.”

She’ll screw up a line and say, ‘Aw, fucking cocksucker!’ Robert told me once, ‘Rose said the greatest Quentin line the other day. She was talking about how she doesn’t like the word “whore,” and she said, “You can call me a cunt till the cows come home, but don’t call me a whore!”’

Cindy Crawford and her random sheet, in the middle of the Ocean

“Not that I believe you can have it all: I believe you can have it all, just not at the same time.”

Under the covers with The X-Files

They were too budy getting busy to say anything.

Britney Spears, once again, before this was a shocker.

“Honestly, I believe everyone at their core has a good heart. But something must be going on for someone to be that desperate to go on a show and talk about a girl, about someone you don’t really know that well. That is, like, morally? . I’m really surprised at people. Like, holy shit, man.”

In August 2002, Spears announced a hiatus.

“Why the hell did I say that?” she asks today. “That was so fucking stupid. But honestly? I thought I could chill out for a while and be a normal person.”

Red Hot Chili Peppers....cupping themselves.

Janet Jackson before we saw her nip on the Superbowl

“A woman who finally feels good enough about her sexuality,” says Janet, “to demand a man’s respect. It’s insulting to be seen as some object; he must call her by name. It’s not brazen demand—I didn’t want to be obnoxious—but I wanted to be clear. Women want satisfaction. And so do men. But to get it, you must ask for it. Know what you need. Say what you want. Sexual communication is the name of the game. Intimacy.”

Um…she doesn’t speak. She’s a mannequin.

Lady Ga Ga freaks us the eff out, again.

On your new single, “Poker Face,” you sing about “bluffin’ with my muffin.”
Obviously, it’s my pussy’s poker face! I took that line from another song I wrote but never released, called “Blueberry Kisses.” It was about a girl singing to her boyfriend about how she wants him to go down on her, and I used the lyric. [Sings] “Blueberry kisses, the muffin man misses them kisses.”

Laestia Casta....who?

Stevie Nicks, being Stevie Nicks.

“If you offered me a passionate love affair and you offered me a high-priestess role in a fabulous castle above a cliff where I can just, like, live a very spiritual kind of religious-library-communing with-the-stars, learning kind of existence, I’m going to go for the high priestess.”

Janis Joplin there from the beginning...

“On stage I make love to twenty five thousand people; and then I go home alone. "

“Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers.”

“If I hold back, I’m no good. I’m no good. I’d rather be good sometimes, than holding back all the time. "

Drew Barrymore as a "wild child"

“I don’t want to be stinky poo poo girl, I want to be happy flower child. "

“Daisies are like sunshine to the ground. "

Adam Lambert GLAMING it out

As to whether the speculation surrounding his sexual orientation impacted the final vote, Lambert simply laughed, and answered, “Probably.”

Mark McGrath Looking Hot

I had this Rolling Stone cover on my bedroom wall all through high school and was basically in love with it. How hot is he?? Sorry, I’m still kind of in love.

Nicole Kidman, not so shy.
