...members of the Backstreet Boys announced last week that they had become engaged. Neither BRIAN LITTRELL, 25, at left, nor his cousin KEVIN RICHARDSON, 28, middle, named their fiances, though Littrell will reportedly marry a struggling actress while Richardson's betrothed is said to be a backup dancer for Cher. Fans immediately flooded Internet chat rooms to register shock, disappointment and, in some cases, begrudging goodwill. "I don't necessarily LOVE the idea of bri and big bro kevi kev getting married, but if that's what makes them happy, I'm cool with it," wrote one brave...
...Vegas-style atmosphere, thanks mostly to Morrissey's commanding presence, the stage-crashers and the overwhelming amount of flowers, books and letters thrown onstage.

(Maybe it's because I missed "Dawson's Creek"--the only thing that can possibly temper my spirits.) So what prompted such drastic disillusionment? A couple nights ago, I, like most...
...left with roaches, Cher,and Pokemon. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Pokemon: The First Movie (the Second Movie comes out in fewer than 8 months) racked up $52 million at the box office since opening and is pillaging parents' wallets and patience all over the country. But instead of me being irreverent, I'll just give you some telling quotes from recent newswires.... "The trading card shortages created scenes of despair as 'Pokemon'-obsessed youngsters in tears had their parents driving from one restaurant to another in search of the coveted giveaways...." "A studio spokesperson said she knew of several instances...
