...fans. They start their own fan clubs, approve their own action figures, trademark their names-and now, in the latest fit of egomania, launch their own "official" celebrity websites. But who knew that narcissism could be so unintentionally hilarious? Take a look at the highlights of these official celeb sites...
...Counting Crows kind of career--too much, too fast, too soon. This isn't his fault, but it is his problem." Each audit tots the star's assets and liabilities (Affleck's: "Easygoing, cocksure charm"/"Consistently refers to his acting as 'the work'") and judges the celeb's "actual" and "deserved" level of fame (for Affleck, respectively: "Johnny Depp" and "Omar Epps"). The site's "2 Stars, 1 Slot" compares eerily similar niche actors (Vicki Lewis vs. Kathy Griffin in "Battle of the Redheaded Flibbertigibbets"), while the forthcoming "Media Hog" will be a celebrity fantasy league where readers "adopt" stars...

Renata, 17, who had already ordered clothes from Alloy, was impressed that they had arrived in just three days...
...great celeb pairing in "2000" is not the much publicized union in bed of Sharon Stone (making amends for offending gays in Basic Instinct?) and executive producer Ellen DeGeneres. It's the reunion of lesbian DeGeneres and funny DeGeneres. This romp about lovers trying to conceive with purchased sperm well exploits her sorely missed deadpan delivery and timing--though Stone daffily and unconvincingly prances through it, and the two click with all the passion of someone forced to pet a snake. Still, you have to like a story that makes a turkey baster into a token of endearment...
