Skinny Girl Watch

It looks like Al Gore the Threequel is not the only American sub-celebrity in trouble with law. Nicole Ritchie is on her way to jail, and preggers! With Hillary Duff's ex-boyfriend Joel Madden's baby. Joel Madden tapped that? After Hillary Duff? Well, they're going to be married which, in Hollywood, makes everything better.

More Canadian-ly, Chantal Kreviazuk has smacked-down Avril Lavigne's sing-uh performing-songwriter status in a recent issue of Perfoming Songwriter Magazine. (woo! was the subscription clutch!) Chantal will not sully art by taking Avril to court, instead she will let this hang over Avril's career for the five seconds everyone will remember it as an unsubstantiated claim. Somewhere in Napanee, ON, a young Avril fan is passionately defending Avril:
-Oh yea, well Avril doesn't even write her songs, some singer lady that was on Canadian Idol last year said so!
-Oh yea, well...She's just a Sk8er! She needs help spelling! I'll be your girlfriend!
-OK, she's awesome.
Chantal Kreviazuk does have more cred than Sass Jordan. She is married to Rain, the dude from Our Lady Peace. And OLP was totally awesome the summer of Grade 7. Oh, and Avril's hurt. We'll see her in an L.A. court next week on a DUI, then we'll care...
