BILLY CORGAN AND TILA TEQUILA…

Billy Corgan Tila Tequila

The earth just tilted even slightly more off axis and every Smashing Pumpkins fan has died a little inside after discovering that 90s rock god Billy Corgan is dating reality TV “star” Tila Tequila. The pairing marks the first documented relationship in United States history between a pygmy and an albino. I’m already taking their kids’ lunch money.

2:1 odds that Tila Tequila has zero Smashing Pumpkins songs on her iPod. The couple made their public “debut” at Bravo’s 2009 A-List Awards last week. I honestly can’t remember if I ever took Billy Corgan seriously, but now there’s no doubt in my mind that any music released while he’s under the wrath of Tila Tequila will not make its way into my iTunes library.

How about some “Disarm”? Good excuse to post it.

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF … NEW JERSEY??

Real Housewives of New Jersey

would you hit it? me neither

Real Housewives of Orange County? Ok, yeah makes sense. Stuck up, rich annoying people on a beach. Sellable? Check.

Real Housewives of New York City? Former yuppies spending their old money in overpriced stores on Madison Avenue. Definitely sellable. Check.

Real Housewives of Atlanta? Bring in the sistas for the cultural diversity. Drama + money. Sellable? Check.

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF FUCKIN’ NEW JERSEY? Where the “beaches” smell like vomit with sand the color of diarrhea, and people talk like this: “OH MIYAH GAWD”.

I sincerely hope this poor choice of location for the 4th set of housewives works out. Maybe it will be set in some random city in Jersey that isn’t covered in litter, too bad that doesn’t exist. The show will feature 5 housewives, two of which are sisters … whom married a set of brothers, and their sister-in-law. Even more family drama? Hell, I’m not going to lie - I’ll be watching. Do I have better things to do than watch reality TV? No, and neither do you.

Let’s meet these wonderful women [via People.com]:

Jacqueline Laurita: A former cosmetologist, she is now a stay-at-home mom, but still loves to pamper herself. She has a teenage daughter from her previous marriage and a 6-year-old son with her husband Chris, who owns wholesale apparel businesses and is brother to Caroline and Dina.

http://thatssofetch.com/images/rh-nj.jpgTeresa Giudice: Born and raised in New Jersey, her husband Joe owns a successful construction company. Together they have three young daughters, who take up much of her time. A friend of Dina and Caroline, she also loves to shop, get spa treatments and spend time at her beach house on the Jersey Shore.

Danielle Staub: “You either love me or you hate me, there is no in between,” says the single mom of two daughters. She prides herself as one of the first female American Express Black card members in New Jersey. She is also active in her local parish and regularly attends mass. She and Jacqueline are friends.

Dina Manzo: Founder of the nonprofit Project Ladybug, which helps children with cancer, she’s also an interior designer, an event planner, mother and best friends with her sister Caroline. Her husband Tommy works with his brother (Caroline’s husband) at their family’s catering business.

Caroline Manzo: She’s a mother of three and own a real estate firm and a line of children’s accessories. Described as a “feisty spitfire,” she’s Dina’s sister and is on the board of Project Ladybug. She’s married to Albert Manzo, brother of Dina’s husband Tommy. Dina and Caroline’s brother is Jacqueline’s husband Chris.

The show makes its debut May 12 on Bravo at 11 p.m. ET. Yay New Jersey!

Here’s a preview. The nice houses were digitally added. They don’t exist. I’m only kidding NJ, you are responsible for Springsteen and Kevin Smith, which is nice.
