Brittany's list o' drugs; 'Sex and the City 2,' the trailer

-- The Brittany news continues: TMZ reports Brittany Murphy's home is already a stop on the Haunted Hollywood Tours. And, coincidentally, a "friend" has told People that Murphy had a lot of "inner demons" that included body image issues... in Hollywood?! ...you think?! Word through SFGate's City Brights blog is that a Brittany's autopsy photo could earn you $300,000.

Oh! Let me not forget the biggest talker of the past 24 hours (and the reason youj most likely clicked into Cube Candy today) . Via TMZ, here's a list of prescription drugs found in Brittany's home:

"According to the notes, the medications included Topamax (anti-seizure meds also to prevent migraines), Methylprednisolone (anti-inflammatory), Fluoxetine (depression med), Klonopin (anxiety med), Carbamazepine (treats Diabetic symptoms and is also a bipolar med), Ativan (anxiety med), Vicoprofen (pain reliever), Propranolol (hypertension, used to prevent heart attacks), Biaxin (antibiotic), Hydrocodone (pain med) and miscellaneous vitamins."

-- Get "Carried" away: It's been two years since the first "Sex and the City" film. Can you believe it?! And, now, just in time for a Christmas share... girls surprise you with a trailer "Sex in the City 2." Looks like they're gearing up for a big trip. Watch:

-- Ashanti's mom: For some reason, a car salesman from Indiana thought a slew of dirty of photos and messages he sent to R&B singer's Ashanti's mother were welcome. He was convicted by a Manhattan jury Tuesday of harassing her. [AP]

-- Aerosmith and drugs! Surprise?!: Aerosmith's Steven Tyler has entered rehab to cure him of his addiction to painkillers. Something he has been dealing with for reportedly 10 years. Why do I suspect it's been much longer for the legendary 61-year-old rocker? [AP]

-- Top baby names: Aiden is the top boy name of the decade, and Emma is the top girl name of the decade. I have to say I find the list of the top 50 baby names of the decade a big boring. [BabyCenter]

-- Pinks hubby: The blogosphere talk on this one is that Pink was surprised by her husband's appearance on stage during a recent concert. In the video,you can see him stripped by the dancers on stage to his undies and beaten with a pillow. Aw! How sweet.

ON THE LOCAL FRONT!! Congrats (I think!) to former HamptonRoads.com blogger and 93.7 Bob FM DJ Crizti Walsh for being picked the "Worst Dressed American" for the 250th episode of "What Not To Wear," which will air Jan. 29, 2010, on TLC. Read this from a TLC press release:

On January 29, WHAT NOT TO WEAR celebrates its 250th episode, where after a nationwide search, Stacy and Clinton have found their "Worst Dressed American" - DJ Crizti Walsh who dresses more like a teenager than a 40-year-old mother. Stacy and Clinton call on 12 of their past contributors from over the past seven seasons to help them with the process. The former fashion victims share their stories with Crizti as they help inspire her makeover.

 Update/Clarification: Crizti sent a note to one of Cube's contributors. (Full disclosure: The two know each other as neighbors.) Crizti says she is not a regular jock for Bob FM any more. She does work as a radio DJ, but we'll leave it at that for now.

That's it for Cube Candy today. Go celebrate Festivus or something!
As for the rest of the week, even a pop culture blog deserves some down time. :)
Merry Christmas!!
