Lauren Conrad

Music artists and movie stars never fail to entertain me (however, I do get easily amused). Whether I laugh with them (or, in most cases, at them) or actually pity their heartaches and failures (which doesn’t happen often)—I always look forward to the next celebrity hook-up/screw-up.

And the month of April did not disappoint. Here are the five best and worst moments in pop culture that made me grateful that such somewhat petty life moments in my life aren’t publicized for the world:

BEST:

5) Pink Reunites with H(e)art:

One can’t help but assume the following:

a) Pink’s estranged husband Carey Hart decided to give his relationship another try after watching the boyfriend/husband torturing, knee-breaking video his wife created for her single ‘Please Don’t Leave Me.’

Or

b) Pink and Carey realized that they are meant to be with one another, at least for another year.

Either way, I’m happy.

4) LC leaves The Hills:

I’ll admit. I really cannot watch an entire episode of this series without feeling like I lost some brain cells. However, Lauren Conrad was the show’s only salvation. She’s the least annoying and somehow the most genuine–which is why she needs to move onto better things. The only real downfall? More airtime for douche Spencer Pratt.

3) Ronson and Lohan Breakup, Again…Again:

I strongly believe that Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson find great amusement in their relationship. From their constant bickering, PDA and breakups, these two don’t know when to stop. Lindsay should consider adding “relationship therapy” along to her list of “Things I Need To Attend Rehab For.”

2) Ooh ooh baby—Wolverine prequel finally hits theatres:

Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Kitsch = Yummy. Need I say more? I think not.

1) Susan Boyle Proves Simon Wrong. Let’s rejoice:

Overnight singing sensation Susan Boyle made us realize that a lack of conventional physical beauty and youth doesn’t always amount to failure. While Simon Cowell saw money signs in his eyes during her performance, the rest of the world was just pleased Boyle didn’t sound like Beyonce’s altered live recording on the ‘Today’ show.

 

WORST:

5) Mel Gibson’s New Leading Lady Drama:  

I can’t quite understand why everyone is making a big deal out of this relationship. If Gibson and his wife were indeed separated for a few years prior to any of them having a relationship with other people, then kudos to Gibson for hooking up.  

Besides, I’m sure Oksana (whose name gets butchered by television and radio media) just wants him for his money. Which, unfortunately for her, might not be as much as she thinks after Gibson settles his divorce with his wife Robyn.

4) Britney’s “stay away from me” order:

Dear Ms. Spears is not meant to live a life void of relationship drama. While a judge issued a restraining order against Spears’s former manager, Sam Lutfi, for another three years, I’m positive that it’s not the end for them two. If Britney ever falls back to her old, unstable ways…Lutfi will be the first person she’ll call (along with a hairdresser).

You’ll see.

3) Beyonce’s horrific altered voice recording:

After Howard Stern aired an alleged recording of Beyonce screeching through a rendition of “If I Were a Boy,” many assumed that the Grammy winning star either hid behind pre-recorded tracks or suddenly went tone-deaf.

TMZ, however, came to the rescue by reporting that they spoke to the individual responsible for altering the recording. Phew. For a moment there, I assumed Beyonce was suddenly taking vocal pointers from Britney.

2) Miss California Same-Sex scandal:

By now, we have all heard of the “scandalous” moment involving Miss California and Perez Hilton. While I will refuse to comment on the situation, I do send out my sympathies out to Miss North Carolina. Even though she won the Miss USA crown, she has barely received the same news coverage as her runner-up competitor.

1) Heidi and Spencer get married (officially)…doomed for life:

It’s not hard to see why I think that any girl is too good for Spencer Pratt. Heck, I wouldn’t even wish such a man upon Lohan. This idiot is the epitome of an arrogant jerk bag. I may not be Montag’s biggest fan either, but even I don’t think she should spend the rest of her life with someone like Spencer.

If, by some miracle, Spencer grew up and humbled down, I might just reconsider my awful view of him. As for now,  I already pity the children they don’t have.

What were you thinking Heidi?
