Technically, the term pin up didn’t exist until 1941, but men have been pinning up pictures of beautiful women torn from magazines and advertisements since the Gibson Girl—Charles Dana Gibson’s illustrations of ideal American womanhood circa 1900.
          
          
          
          
Photography and the subsequent rise of the movie industry gave rise to a whole new crop of real live pin up girls. The pinup was as much a part of World War II as rationing. American GIs adorned their lockers with semi-revealing photos of movies stars like Rita Hayworth. Dorothy Lamour and Veronica Lake.
                    
          
          
But the number one pinup girl of the war was Betty Grable. Her picture in swimsuit and high heels, taken by studio photographer Frank Powolny, outsold those of all her contemporaries. What was it about the blonde with the million dollar legs that was so popular? After all, Grable wasn’t as beautiful as Veronica Lake, as sultry as Dorothy Lamour or as sexy as Rita Hayworth.
          
          
          
          
The ideal pinup of the day was pretty but not beautiful, sexy but not scary and saucy without being salacious. Grable, the box office queen of the 1940s, fit the bill perfectly. She was as wholesome as her movies, frothy, light-hearted musicals that served as a distraction from the war.

Picture of Madonna Hard Candy album cover due out April 29th 2008

You know I’m old enough to remember when Madonna burst onto the music scene and my friends and I all scrambled for our rubber wrist bracelets, lace gloves, and over sized belt buckles to wear to our Friday night trips to the local roller rink … ah those were the days. But I digress, Madonna’s new album Hard Candy is due out April 29th 2008 and looking at the cover it’s a trip back to her roots. Supposedly it’s all about the juxtaposition of sweetness and hard style which is classic Madonna at her best.

Here’s the Hannah Montana aka Miley Cyrus Audition tape that’s going to be shown at the oscars tonight

One of the coolest parts of being a celebrity rock star has to be the groupies. One of the things that sucks about being a celebrity rockstar and having groupies is when a sex tape of you leaks onto the internet. Someone leaked a sex tape of Gene Simmons onto the net and it’s not his wife/girlfriend Shannon Tweed. It’s Elsa a spokes model for Frank’s energy drink who Gene is the pitchman for. Hmm dinner time around the Simmons house tonight … awkward …

Lindsay Lohan

Say what you will about Lindsay Lohan, and her alleged drug addiction, and alcohol fueled all night party sessions, but sometime you have to give credit where credit is do. Li-Lo can pull it together and look decent for a change. This dress not only perfectly shows off her assets (MEOW) but also does a great job showing of her figure, and circular detailing is a nice touch.

I’m not the only one who thinks so my buddy over on the snarkstress, thinks Lindsay can bring it too.
