Lost's premiere Wednesday night left many die-hard fans a little, well, lost. Although some loved the parallel realities, others felt the flashsideways was a copout of Bobby Ewing proportions.

One fan on ABC's Lost forum commented, "my first impression is no, I didn't like [the episode] much. It seemed like such a cop out, having two realities . . . it just turned into, yeah, this was the easiest thing [writers] could do."

Another disgruntled viewer noted, "I'm confused and LOST, I feel as if I'm going through final exams week. These writers are killing me." I agree with the test analogy, I felt I had to watch two hours of catchup shows just to be prepared for the premiere!

But others loved the mind-bending time travel premiere, saying, "I thought it was an awesome start to the final season," on The Blog Prophet. "Questions? Yes. But without them, it would be boring!"

As Lost begins its last supper, will viewers (who were up 6% for the premiere) stick around for the answers producers promise to deliver in Lost's final season?

Paris Hilton The Late Show David Letterman Blue dress heels

Our favorite heiress Paris Hilton jetted off to New York last night to deliver the Late Show's "Top Ten Reasons I'm Not On The Show Tonight."

Wearing a sparkly, one-shouldered mini-dress, Paris showed that she had some comedy chops as she ticked off the reasons (favorites include "I just don’t have it in me tonight to pretend Dave is hot,” and "I already did Regis and I only talk to one old dude a month.")

But the best by far is her number one reason she's not on the show (even though obvs she was.)

Check it out in the vid below:

Taylor Lautner's New Moon Co-Star Blasts His New Flick On Twitter

Ouch! Taylor Lautner's fellow New Moon werewolf Alex Meraz (far left) has taken a huge swipe at the star on Twitter, tearing into his upcoming romantic comedy Valentine's Day!

Alex tweeted, "Sorry Taylor but the movie Valentine's Day looks lame and desperate ... It cries out, 'look we have all the biggest starz in 1 movie pleez watch!'" Alex continued, "P.S. it has nothing to do with the talented actors in the movie. I just don't like the producer & Directors' 'get rich quick skeem' nuff said."

Hmm, is someone jealous that they didn't get a part in the movie? It stars Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Ashton Kutcher, Taylor Swift and Bradley Cooper among others, so yes, it's loaded with starpower, but that's certainly not a reason to hate it!

Alex later added, "Talk about biting the hand that feeds me...but I'm a wolf for crying out loud! I'll be careful next time I spill twitter all over everyone."

Stop howling, boy!

I love Lindsay Lohan as a brunette and she has every reason to show some skin, but this outfit is ten different kinds of fug. Last night Linds partied at the Tea Room in Hollywood, and the starlet rocked what appears to be a pair of mens pants, a midriff baring top and some sort of furry critter on her shoulders. Where are those leggings and tunics when you need them?!

After watching snippets of Lindsay's interview with The Insider, a lot of people were curious as to how much Lindsay got for the story, but when questioned about it last night Lindsay remained tight lipped. Of course, she had time to thank our photog when he complimented her on how lovely she looked...

Federline Thought Fat Pix Due To "Photoshopping", Not Over-Eating!

Posted on Thu Feb 4th, 2010 7:05am PDT       By X17 Staff

KFederlineGolf022908_003.jpgem>Celebrity Fit Club success story, Kevin Federline's first thought when he saw these K-Fat pix wasn't, "I've got to lose weight," it was "they've been photoshopped!"

The formerly in denial star told Entertainment Tonight that seeing his big boy pix were "upsetting".

"I went through a lot of things and I definitely say that those things contributed to me gaining weight for sure," says Federline, referring to the "depression" he says he suffered after his split with Britney.

When shown a photo of himself on the golf course, Kevin said, "When I saw this picture, I did not think that I was that big. I thought it was Photoshopped. You know? And, then I realized that I was just letting myself go."

At one point Britney's famous ex weighed as much as 240 pounds, but he seems to have shed some (if not most) of that for his recent interview (below).

Someone in the office here thinks Ms. Paquin's had some plastic surgery since her days as a petite pianist but seriously, what on this girl looks fake?

I'm liking this couple and I think Paquin is adorbs. We spotted them out shopping near Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica yesterday.

But as cute as they are, can a couple that works together make it work off-camera?

Julie Benz Tells X17 About Lesbian Kiss on Housewives: Dana Delaney's A "Great Kisser"!

From tantalizing Michael C. Hall on Dexter, to rocking Dana Delany's world on Desperate Housewives, Wisteria Lane's strip-tastic new character Robin, played by Julie Benz, is going girl-on-girl for an upcoming episode. Sources from the set tell us the chemistry between the two women is certainly there. "Julie and Dana definitely get it on."

So how's Miss Delany's liplock? Julie tells X17online exclusively:

    "Dana's a great kisser ... Joining the cast of Desperate Housewives has been nothing short of amazing. The girls are all so fun to work with and have welcomed me with open arms. I'm so thrilled that there is such a buzz about my character's relationship with Dana's. It's really beautiful and was so fun to shoot."


In last Sunday's DHW episode, we saw Susan take Robin under her wing, even trying to get her a job as a teacher's assistant. Sorry Robin, no dice. Next time, keep the stilettos under 6 inches. Anyone else having flashbacks of Van Halen's 1984 Hot for Teacher music video?
