Zach Galifianakis turns swimsuit model for Vanity Fair

You won't believe the photo shoot Zach Galifianakis ("Bored to Death") did for the November issue of Vanity Fair

Brace yourself, then click below.

Ultimate "Law & Order" cast photo

Okay, it's almost the ultimate cast photo. The current assistant DAs and detectives are missing, but if you can overlook that (maybe someone can Photoshop them in!), this is the coolest "Law & Order" photo ever.

Shot by Norman Jean Roy for Vanity Fair magazine in 2003 and titled "A Perp's Worst Nightmare," the photo includes pretty much every major cast member up to that point (though I don't see Michael Moriarty) with the show's creator Dick Wolf peaking in the door. Sam Waterston (DA Jack McCoy) and Jerry Orbach (Det. Lennie Briscoe) have prominent placement. Can you name all the others? Click below to see larger image.

Who's the best dressed? Vanity Fair weighs in

In case you missed the release of the list last week, there's a fun slideshow of who's on the list with some pretty cool fashion pictures, mostly shots of the list makers out and about.

Who's on it? Michelle O, of course. And POTUS joins her. Carla Bruni-Sarkozy made it. NYC's Mayor Bloomberg is on it as well as his companion Diana Taylor. Brad Pitt's on the list along with Anne Hathaway and Renee Zellweger. And designers including Tori Burch (shown here) Georgina Chapman, Rachel Roy and Stacey Bendet.
