As the year winds down, HB takes a look back at some crazy stories we posted about everyone’s favorite out- of- control mom Frankie! Frankie made us all scratch our heads with her crazy antics, from getting a tramp stamp tat of her much younger boyfriend’s name to wilding out on TLC’s Chili. Take a look at our Top 5 Frankie moments:

Short, chin length hair: Many celebrities have been sporting this look lately. Some prefer with bangs, others opt for longer side-swept bangs. You can wear it curly or straight, which makes it so great for a summer look!

Sleek and straight hair: Long, sleek, and straight looks seem to never go out of style. This year bangs are adding a defining touch. Also, playing with color with this look has given Christina Milian a unique look.

Loose curls: This celebrity staple look is still one to covet this summer. They provide an elegant look for any summer night or a fun look for those summer days.

Unique Looks: If you are the type of person who doesn’t follow the trends that is fine this summer because you are a trend. Many celebrities are looking to set themselves apart and some use their hair to do that. Naturally that only works for a short time, because the copy cats come out. This summer don’t be afraid to let yourself be creative with your hair, just make sure when this season comes to an end you can fix it or really still like it. I have heard too many people disgruntled over a rash hair decision and don’t want your fashion forward cut to become next season’s faux pas cut.

We do have to hand it to Ms. Houston for getting herself together this go-round, however. She had on a pretty dress, her skin looked great, and she was rocking a fresh new wig for the occasion. All eyes were on her, for this would be the first time she would make a big appearance since “cleaning up her act” post-divorce. But was it just us, or was something a little… off?

Whitney was even spotted looking sloppy as hell with no seat belt on in the passengers seat of a car being driven by boyfriend Ray J. See the gallery below:

If anything, it’s safe to say she took a happy pill or had a couple too many drinks before going on stage.  We don’t blame her for being nervous. And her lack of being gross and sweaty leads us to believe that she’s still off the cocaine, so that’s a step, right? Watch the video below and let us know if we’re buggin’, or if she really slurred the hell out of that speech.

GALLERY: WILDEST CELEBRITY DIVORCES

Mike Alvear, host of HBO’s “The Sex Inspectors,” tells the Huffington Post his top 5 sex predictions for the new year.

[From Huffington Post]

A friend once described his sexual appetites this way: “A hungry junkyard dog is more fun than a poodle.” He’s going to be one happy puppy after he reads my five predictions for sex in 2009:

1. You’re going to have a lot more of it.
The recession that hit your pocket will tickle your crotch. Call it Recession Sex. If you’re coupled, you’re going to spend more time at home and at some point that TV’s gotta be turned off. The nesting impulse will increase your resting pulse. That’s the good news. The bad? As discretionary income goes down, indiscretions go up. Oops. If you’re single, you’ll have the time but not the money to fritter away at bars. You won’t wait for the last-call yard sale so you’ll probably lower the bar to increase your odds.

2. You’re going to see a lot more of it.
Larry Flynt once said, “There are two kinds of people who oppose porn. Those who don’t know what they’re talking about and those who don’t know what they’re missing.” Well, ain’t nobody missing it anymore. It’s everywhere. The mainstreaming of porn in art, fashion, and media is turning adult videos into a sort of Zen koan: No matter where you go, there it is.

3. You’re going to be paying a lot less for it.
Nobody’s going to put call girls in a higher tax bracket this year. With a tanking economy, streetwalkers, pole dancers and gold diggers alike are going to have to give it up for less. So are the online dating sites, as they compete with free sites like Plentyoffish.com, Okcupid.com, and DateHookUp.com. It’s like they’ve been working a corner for years and now some hussy’s going to do the job for free. Oh, my.

You might blow a lot of things up for porn but it won’t be your budget. You don’t have to buy it anymore. Hell, you don’t even have to rent it. You just have to point your browser to free sites like Youporn.com and xtube.com, where amateurs and pros upload unstoppable watchables. Offline piracy, illegal downloads and free video sharing sites are going to make dinosaurs out of adult video studios. If they don’t figure out how to compete with “FREE” soon, their last movie is gonna be about their profits–Gone With The Girdle.

What are the other two predictions?! Click here to find out.

One of the greatest historical events this country has seen is going to be one big damn party.

The Presidential Inaugural Committee has confirmed that Stevie Wonder, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, and Bruce Springsteen, among others, will be performing during the opening ceremony on Sunday, January 19 at the Lincoln Memorial. Among those reading historical passages will be Queen Latifah, Denzel Washington, and Martin Luther King III.

For those who can’t make it to the event, HBO will be televising it.

We’ll be there – will you? If so, take pics!
