Fatone Swaggers His Way into Free S**t!

He may not have a whole lot going on career wise (besides that karaoke show) but that isn't stopping Joey Fatone from hitting up as many swag suites as he can buzz his way into.


It's still going to take a couple more game show hosting gigs before he doesn't have to schlep the free sh*t for himself.

WTF?! "Rehabbed" Chyna Needs a Cocktail??

Looks like Chyna didn't need rehab -- just a new bartender! We caught the "Celeb Rehab" reality trainwreck at a swag suite over the weekend, and while most stars were selecting jewelry and clothing -- Chyna went straight to the booze.


You know what they say, the first step to recovery is admitting you need a drink ... or something like that.

Swag Sweet or Sour?

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.

Swag Machine Is Big Hollywood Business

By MELISSA RAYWORTH, FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

It was the late 1990s, and $10 million paychecks had become routine for major stars. Asking them to sit on folding chairs for two hours while waiting to walk across a stage was like asking a preschooler to eat peas.
