Red carpet interviews are for sissies.

We stopped Mark Wahlberg on his way to the Emmys -- in the middle of traffic, no less -- to talk a little smack about the NY Jets beating his beloved New England Patriots.
Losing was the theme of the day for Mark -- "Entourage" lost out to "30 Rock" for best comedy.

So let us get this straight -- one of the best writers in TV got an Emmy from someone who is on a show so badly written ... no one wants to admit it's written. We're just sayin' ...

O.J. Simpson says it was family photos -- not expensive collectibles -- he was after in Thursday's "sting operation."
According to auction house owner Tom Riccio, who says he tipped Simpson off and arranged for him to meet with sports memorabilia collector Alfred Beardsley, Simpson just wanted his childhood photos returned. When he found that Beardsley had a collection of his pics, Simpson "got all worked up," said Riccio.
Beardsley spoke with the Associated Press late yesterday and said that he would give the photos back. "I feel bad about it," and added that both he and Simpson feel "this has gotten way out of control."
Authorities are currently trying to sort out who owned what items, and believe that "part or all of the items" belong to Simpson, according to Police Captain James Dillon.
Britney In, Seacrest Out?

"American Idol" whipping boy Ryan Seacrest hosts the Emmys this Sunday, and says that he's more than willing to give fallen pop tart Britney Spears a chance at redemption on his broadcast.
Rumors around a possible Britastrophic Emmys appearance have been swirling all week, but while Britter's camp says that she's not planning on attending, Seacrest says he'll happily give her air time.
"I am willing to give up my monologue, song and interpretive dance for her apology," he told
Us.
Joan Rivers Kicked Off the Red Carpet

Can we talk? Plastic surgery diva Joan Rivers is miffed that she and daughter Melissa have been moved out of the limelight and online. After years of strutting the red carpet for E!, Rivers and Rivers will now liveblog the event at
joanriversblog.com.
"How dare they! It's just mean and wrong. Are they out of their minds?" Rivers told
Page Six of having the red carpet ripped out from under them. Carson Kressley and Guiliana Depandi will replace the mother/daughter duo.
It's not all bad, said Rivers. "They've set up my apartment like a war room. I have free rein. I can say, 'She looks like a slut.' I can say, 'I think he's gay,' or this one's nasty or terrific. It appeals to me." And anyway, says Joan, "The fun was when the celebrities dressed themselves and looked funny. Now they all look perfect and are being very careful with what they say."

Behind the scenes of any awards show is a world of pure insanity. As the stars make their media rounds, they are in constant need of hair and make-up touch- ups. As was the case last night for legendary "Dynasty" actress Joan Collins.
Just as Joan was finishing up an interview, her hair guy swooped in to revitalize her look. There was just one problem; the cameras were still rolling. Needless to say, madame was none too happy that she was being coiffed for all the world to see. Her expression quickly jumped from a gleamingly pleasant smile to pissed-off diva scowl in just a matter of seconds. She then demanded that the touch-up team take her in front of a mirror immediately, if they wanted to continue their work.

Sometimes Billy Bush just doesn't know when to quit -- and last night on the Emmy red carpet, Jeremy Piven lashed out at him for it. Last night, during the red-carpet prelude to the Emmys, "Access Hollywood's" Bush corralled "Entourage's" Piven, and began a line of questioning concerning celebrity babies. Piven had just flown in from Arizona, where he was shooting a movie with Jennifer Garner, and so Bush asked him about Garner's baby Violet.
Bush then asked Piven if, given that Piven lives in Malibu, whether he had laid eyes on Brangelina's baby Shiloh. Piven said he hadn't, explaining that he had "116 other things to do...I don't go hunting for celebrity babies, thank you, Billy."
"You need another job. You have potential as a human being..."
Undeterred, or clearly not getting the message, Bush then asked if he'd seen Suri Cruise. Piven finally lost his patience. "You need another job. You have potential as a human being," said Piven, not at all hiding his irritation. "This may not be right for you. Seriously -- can you focus on other things?"
At least Bush got one thing right. He predicted -- correctly -- that Jeremy Piven would get his statuette, and Piven did, for his role as Ari Gold.

Everything from the perfect hair and the stunning dress, to the shimmering jewels and the flawless make-up looked incredible on Vanessa Minnillo during the Emmy celebration. In fact, just staring at her made everyone forget the the blazing hot sun and the sweat seeping into tuxedo jackets. Yes, she was stunning!
However, once out of sight of the cameras and the red carpet audience, Vanessa let her true colors shine through. Our TMZ insider explained that as Minnillo made her way up to the tower (this is where Kathy Griffin sat last year when she still had a job on the show), she was full-on ghetto. She had every thug angle covered. While hiking up her skirt with one hand, walking with a limp in stilettos, and waving the other hand from side to side she sang, "Yo, yo, yo! This is so gangsta." She continued with her ghetto fabulous act until the cameras came back on. Then, in the blink of an eye, she was back to the well-spoken beauty we've all come to know.
Another side of Vanessa was revealing itself. As the relationship between Vanessa and boyfriend Nick Lachey gets even more intense and the media's obsession continues to grow, we're sure to see many more faces from the exotic lovely. One thing you might not know about her is that she is curvy. This woman has back and front and in perfect proportions. We applaud her for keeping it real.

TV's annual festival of self-congratulation passed into history last night for the 58th time, and history will note that Fox's "24" finally got the recognition it deserved, that Conan O'Brien ought to be given the hosting gig for life, and that HBO just can't lose the movie/miniseries category.
What's more, backstage, Tina Fey actually did go "arse-over-tits," in Helen Mirren's charming phraseology, "The Office"'s Rainn Wilson just had to kiss his castmates, and Martin and Charlie Sheen shared a nice filial cigarette.

Celebs do love those sumptuous swag suites during awards time, but these stars clearly don't know about swag taxes. Jeri Ryan, Neil Patrick Harris, and Tia Carrere are just so excited about their "free" gifts like vacation packages, clothes, shoes, jewelry, and gadgets, though maybe their accountants ought to be telling them that "free" really means, oh, at least a 30% tax on the total value of the stuff.

For these, and other swag-lovin' celebs' benefit, TMZ provides a little tutorial into what these folks think they're receiving for free, and what they're actually going to end up shelling out to Uncle Sam.
