WHY I LOVE ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

In this week's issue...

... they refer to The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift as "3 Fast 3 Furious"

... they have a feature on the "reality" of the Laguna Beach spin-off "The Hills" with the headline "'The Hills' Have Lies"

... they write this about The Lake House: "The Speed racers reunite in a magical-mailbox romance that's neither magical nor romantic. But there is a mailbox..."

... and they have a small feature headlined Don't Quit Your Day Job:
Will Smith's recent film deals remind us that not all rapper-actors excel at both gigs. So we recommend they make a choice...

WILL SMITH: ACTOR. One of Hollywood's most bankable stars, he hasn't had a credible hit song since 1991's "Summertime."

SNOOP DOGG: RAPPER. Sure, Snoop was terrific in Training Day, but how can we forget Bones? Or Soul Plane? Or The Wash...?

QUEEN LATIFAH: ACTOR. Last CD: jazz. Plus, she was a marvel in Chicago, and we have faith she'll quit making stinky comedies like Taxi.

DIDDY: NEITHER. Self-promotion doesn't unstiffen acting (Monster's Ball) or fix dubious rapping.

I do, however, have four words for EW: Gettin' Jiggy Wit It. C'mon!
