Everything post-Olympics over in London was pretty amazing. Not as debaucherous as everyone keeps wondering, but an incredible trip, with every single day jam-packed with awesome.

Every once and again I want to just get up, dance, and forget about everything but having fun. If that makes me a One Directioner, then I will proudly say, "So be it."

Even at 60 years old, Neeson still manages to have cross-generational appeal, and makes a far more believable action hero than puerile pretty boys like Shia LeBeouf or Liam Hemsworth, whose acting is an amalgamation of upper lip peach fuzz and dour glowers.

From the start, Bain Capital had support from the government. We all built that. Just don't ever mention that in public.

Ever since he co-starred with Sean Connery in The Rock, the actor has focused more on bombastic action flicks than the gems that made him the star he is today. Don't look now, but Liam Neeson has become the second coming of Cage.

Is fashion getting cattier? Supermodels of the world, make way for your feline competition. They're fierce, they're fabulous, and they have twice the legs.

The surfacing of sex tapes among people in Hollywood has become so common that some tapes are leaked as a marketing strategy to advance or establish fame.

Last week, a report came out that helps answer one of the most important (and disputed) questions in the world of fisheries -- how much trouble are the world's fisheries really in?

Despite having watched a vampire-human baby tear itself out of Bella Swan's womb -- not to mention the horror of having to call said baby "Renesmee" with a straight face -- Ashley Greene found that doing a comedy for the first time, in Butter, was "terrifying."

So we've played five shows and "tour brain" has already started to set in. "Tour brain" is what happens when your everyday life is abruptly transformed from a varied sequence of diverse events into a more regimented, cyclical existence.

It is sad to me that Jesse Jackson, Jr. and former Rep. Patrick Kennedy, as well as other celebrities, have become poster boys for mental illness when in fact they should be poster boys for questionable behavior.

Two shows, two clubs, one night equals chaos. Tequila is the only thing that will save us. But it's New York in the fall, and it's a gorgeous day. Just like the T-shirt says, "I LOVE New York."

Rihanna's new single "Diamonds" is out this week, which made me wonder: Do we even have a "Queen of Pop" anymore? And if so, who is it? Does she matter?

Louie isn't nearly the dad Cliff Huxtable was. He's divorced, doesn't own a house and is making it up as he goes. Sometimes his parenting sucks and sometimes it's amazing, but it always feels real, rather than a mere set-up to a punchline. And Louie always does his damnedest, right up to shepherding his daughter's stowaway duckling through a USO tour of Afghanistan.

R&B superstar Ne-Yo and Third Eye Blind rocked a charity concert by performing at the Intrepid Air, Sea, and Space Museum in New York City last Thursday.

When I created the Avril Lavigne Foundation in 2010, one of my main goals was to bring laughter and fun into the lives of sick or disabled children and youth. I told my fans that my birthday wish was for them to support the Foundation in any way they could.
