It's a disappointing and vulgar attack on John McCain, who has devoted his life to the cause of freedom and the fight against tyranny. But, it's not surprising that Barack Obama and his fellow celebrities stick together.

So … celebrities are ridiculous and have no political weight, but it's necessary to respond to a piece of video that plays during a pop concert? (We should also note that this concert also features film segments including the important socioeconomic commentary of one Ms. Britney Jean Spears.)

The best part? After careful consideration, the McCain camp decided that the best outlet to publish their rebuttal would be the Website for Us Weekly, the celebrity magazine.

Denver Dispatch: Ayelet Waldman on Being an Obama Delegate

Today all anyone wants to hear about is the manufactured dissent between Hillary supporters and Obama supporters. Every reporter breathlessly asks what we've heard, how angry the Hillary supporters are. I can hardly claim any unique insight into the mind of the Clinton camp, but let me say that, as a novelist, I know that thousands of people holding hands, waving signs, and cheering a united party does not a story make. Conflict makes a story, so every nutjob with a PUMA sign gets on TV. The truth from the ground is that while I've heard that the New York delegation breakfast was a little emotional, the vast majority of Hillary supporters are either onboard for Obama or preparing to be. As a young African-American woman I heard interviewed on the bus today said, "Hillary and Bill were there for us, and I'm here for her. But on Thursday, when Barack Obama is our candidate, I will support him with all my heart." I've seen red buttons that say "Hillary Supports Obama and So Do I" and "Another Hillary Clinton Delegate for Obama," but I've seen no negative swag at all.

Sarah Silverman Would Love to Adopt a Chinese Baby

"I see those CARE commercials on television with the starving children with the big bellies, and these are 1- and 2-year-old babies, nine months pregnant," she later said to the audience. "It breaks my heart. I don’t give them money, though, because I don’t want them to spend it on drugs. But I give. Last year, I sent a whole box of DVDs. They sent me a letter thanking me. They said, ‘Thank you,’ and that there were enough DVDs for every member of the village to get one. And that they were delicious."

And even though she's not dating, Silverman is considering having kids. Or procuring them. "I don’t know the technical term, but I don’t want to have vagina babies," she said. "Not for vanity reasons. I understand when people want to have a baby because they want to have a little version of themselves that they can kind of do it right this time or whatever. I don’t have that need, personally. And because I have evil in my genes. I would adopt, definitely something brown. Because otherwise you don’t get credit. Probably China. I’d adopt in China. If I adopted in China, I’d definitely adopt a boy, because somebody told me that the girls there were like, useless." See? She really does love chinks!

Designers Stay Ahead of the Knockoff Curve

would fall off as the salesperson folded it
and put it in the bag.Photo: Getty Images

If fall and winter fashion brings out the bitter shopper in us, it’s not just due to our perpetually bottomed-out bank account. Diaphanous summer fabrics have always been easier to carry off, especially when our stylish friends have often mistaken Zara for Barneys Co-op. Fall ’08 runway looks from Prada, Balenciaga, and Balmain — not that we can afford them! — are all embellishment-heavy and alarmingly pricey.

According to the Financial Times, ready-to-wear designers are continuing to seek ways of distinguishing themselves from the mass-market, fending off knockoffs by using high-tech fabrics and hard-to-duplicate application techniques. And the trend isn’t likely to wane, mirroring a general market shift. “As the price of high fashion and luxury continues to climb, so designers are upping the deluxe factor in every aspect of a garment.” Sigh. Expect next season’s Barneys Warehouse sale to be especially cutthroat.

Our Favorite Model Cards From the New Show Packages

Modeling agencies have started sending out show packages in hopes of getting their newest girls and runway vets prime placement on as many catwalks as possible for Fashion Week, which starts next week (OMFG is right!). The model cards (or, as we like to think of them, our baseball cards) come with photos and stats (height, hip measurement, etc) for each girl. We poured through piles and picked our five favorite cards.

1. Hye Park, Trump Management

2. Behati Prinsloo, Supreme

Supreme's fashion-in-the-wild package this year was by far our favorite, so much so that we had to pick two cards from the stack to share with you. First up, Behati Prinsloo, who turns a highway into a runway by hitchhiking in a sheet and Reeboks. Chic and spiritual. Photo: Courtesy of Supreme

3. Hanne Gaby Odiele, Supreme

5. Angelika Kocheva, Marilyn

Engineered Garments Opens a Country Store at Den

Country Store by Engineered Garments unleashes a sea of rugged plaid in the East Village.Photo: Courtesy of Den

Engineered Garments at Den, a pop-up that opened Saturday. Unlike the sterile, white-on-white décor of the former Common Projects display, EG has decked out the 350-square-foot space in a woodsy Field & Stream motif. Framed pages from dated hunting magazines line the walls, rickety beams are propped overhead, and scattered patchwork pillows and knit blankets add a country vibe. Designed by Daiki Suzuki, the fall/winter collection is inspired by early 1900s workwear and is heavy on wool, Buffalo check, and rugged plaids. Men emerging from the dressing room resembled stylish lumberjacks — a look we didn't find so unappealing in moderation. Highlights include fur-lined vests, selvaged-denim jeans, skinny plaid ties, wool vests, and dark, dapper blazers. Accessories from outside brands complement the wares, like canvas bags from J.W. Hulme and Duluth Pack, and work boots from Whites and Dayton. Check back later this summer for a brand-new women’s collection, FWK by Engineered Garments (named after Katherine Hepburn’s mansion in Fenwick), which will present downsized, tailored versions of the outdoorsy looks. See more of the Country Store after the jump.

‘New York, I Love You’ Trailer: New York, I Just Met You

Tagline: "The city that never sleeps never stops dreaming."

Translation: If I, Brett Ratner, can make it there, I'll make it … an-y-where!

The Verdict: "That's one of the things I love best about New York," Julie Christie says in the trailer for the second movie in the anthology series that began with Paris, Je T'Aime. "Everyone came from somewhere else." Including the directors and stars of New York, I Love You! Casting a bunch of non-Parisians in short films directed by, say, Alexander Payne might have worked wonderfully in Paris, but here in New York we're a little pricklier about who tells our stories. What, exactly, do Maggie Q, Rachel Bilson, Shia LaBeouf, and Brett Ratner have to say about this city that a bunch of New York–based actors and directors couldn't have come up with? We guess we're glad that Eli Wallach, Natalie Portman, and Olivia Thirlby are involved, but this trailer's constant, pie-eyed refrain — "New York's not such a big place!" "God, I love New York!" — reminds us painfully of a bunch of tourists wandering around Times Square.

Success of ‘The House Bunny’ a Clear Mandate for Someone to Write a Non-Crappy Movie for Anna Faris

Courtesy of Columbia

On Friday, we asked if over-the-top critical exuberance over her movie-salvaging performance in the not-great The House Bunny could turn Anna Faris into a star. And maybe it can! Bunny was the feel-good box-office story of the weekend, earning a near-budget-recouping $15.1 million and placing second, just behind Tropic Thunder, whose $16.1 million brings its cumulative gross to just $65 million, a good deal short of the movie's $100 million production cost (and the untold billions they spent on offensive viral marketing). Faris also trounced Death Race ($12.3 million) and Rainn Wilson's awful-looking The Rocker, which bowed at No. 12 with a hilarious $2.8 million. If people will pay this much to see her in The House Bunny, just imagine how much they'd pay to see her in a movie that isn't borderline terrible!

Champion of the Knockoff: ‘Gossip Girl’ Stylist Eric Daman

Eric DamanPhoto: WireImage

We're breathlessly counting down to the season premiere of Gossip Girl, which is just one week away. But who better to cash in on its season-two debut than the store Blair, Serena, and Jenny never shut up about, Henri Bendel? The store unveiled its Gossip Girl–themed windows last night before a throng of shrieking tourists, teens, and children who could barely see over the velvet rope. (And those children had some fierce elbows, let us tell you.) Last to bound up the red carpet behind Taylor Momsen, Leighton Meester, et al was the show's stylist, Eric Daman, who also styled the Bendel windows. Daman, who looked fabulous in a white vest with no shirt and thick tangle of necklaces, recalled one time shooting on the Upper East Side when Gossip Girl fanatics showed up on set dressed as their favorite characters. "They are showing up as Serenas and Blairs, in the outfits that they saw in the episode, standing there outside being like, 'Serena, I'm wearing your coat! I'm wearing your coat!' It's brilliant. It's amazing," Daman said. "And these are the girls of the Upper East Side, who have super taste and waltz around getting whatever they want."

But he asserts girls of that demographic — and Brooklyn resident Jenny Humphrey — aren't the only ones with the means to cop Serena van der Woodsen's label-heavy look. "It's accessible," Daman said. "You can get it at Nine West or you can get it at H&M and you can get it at Charlotte Russe, and it's all knockoff. You can get the Ferragamo knockoff bag at the mall and still look brilliant. And you should. I think it's really important that girls know that." So don't go pulling any Jenny-esque five-finger discounts, kids. A faux will get you through just dandy.

‘American Idol’ Adds Fourth Judge, Possibly to Avoid Remaking Mistakes of Recent Past

Photo: Getty Images

In the wake of conspicuously toupeed grunge fanatic David Cook's baffling victory at a recent finale, American Idol has decided to increase its critical component by adding a fourth judge. Joining Randy, Paula, and Simon at the table for the show's upcoming eighth season will be Kara DioGuardi, a songwriter whose credits include hits by Kelly Clarkson, Christina Aguilera, and Gwen Stefani. Encouragingly, she's worked with Dr. Dre and Justin Timberlake, making her the show's least lame adjudicator by a mile. Discouragingly, she's also collaborated with Nickelback's Chad Kroeger, which means she probably harbors no innate bias against this season's impending torrent of crappy David Cook sound-alikes.

Willie Mae Rock Camp Showcase Portends Big Things for Little Girls

The Minor Outrageous Tigers.Photo: Tracy Morford

“Hi, we're famous,” announced one of the performers addressing the line outside of the Music Hall of Williamsburg at Saturday's Willie Mae Rock Camp for Girls 2008 Showcase. “This is going to be awesome.” Having an act inform you of their fame is an ill portent at any show, but the awesomeness promised by the young lady was triumphantly delivered. There was shredding. There was head banging. And yes, there were drum solos. There were also braces, leg warmers, ponytails, and several mike stands standing at about three feet high. The early-afternoon showcase was the culmination of Willie Mae's intensive weeklong seminar in rockin' out. Emceed by the irrepressible, travel-size Cassidy Van Cooten (with only a little help from a staff member), the event displayed the talents of seventeen bands, most with rather innovative lineups.

The kids not only pulled off their accessories — sleeveless band tees, neckties, and fingerless gloves, all things better worn by kids dressing up as adults, and not the other way around — but their set was full of surprises. The high points: the Explosive Diamonds' guitar player effectively wrestling a Gretsch Chet Atkins bigger than she was, a chilling a cappella breakdown courtesy of the Nothingness, and Fairy Sandwich's four-fisted high-hat clang. The catchiest song was Girlz Like Boyz' party protest rant “Good-bye Mr. President,” which recalled for us the bratty, adolescent beat of L'Trimm. (The band stopped short of formally endorsing Obama, but their jam has “Raising McCain” soundly beat.) Common to many of the groups seemed to be the influence of the Shaggs, Hole, and … um, Thurston Moore and his tuneless drones … er, maybe something Indian? We've seen worse from Pratt students in bands. And aspiring indie rockers of all ages would do well to learn that when a live performance doesn't exactly jell, just smile big, throw candy, and raise those devil horns high.

In baby/bump-watch news we actually care about, Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio gave birth to a baby girl last night in her native Brazil. Joy! The father of the little Anja Louise Ambrosio is Alessandra's boyfriend, businessman Jamie Mazur, who she's been dating since 2005. They're kind of disgustingly cute together, right? Right. The 27-year-old supermodel continued modeling during her pregnancy (this was her first), but lest the world forget how super she is, she will walk in the Victoria's Fashion show in November. Heidi Klum's not the only one who can do stuff like that. (And yes, photos for the baby are up for grabs, but the proceeds go to the MS Children's fund.)
