Various recognizable types showed up for the Los Angeles premiere of J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek prequel, and it looked like a total dorkfest filled with prettier-than-average geekoids. As you can see, Hayden Paniettere used all her concentration to attempt the elusive Vulcan handshake, but, poor thing, it just wasn’t working out. (Hey, at least she did better than this guy.)
Meanwhile, Trent Reznor actually stepped out into the glare of the flashbulbs with his new girlfriend, Mariqueen “Q” Maandig, vocalist for West Indian Girl, a Los Angeles based, psychoholic-pop band. Mariqueen looks beautiful here as in most photographs, but, if you ever catch a glimpse of her when her hair is swept away from her face, she is an absolute knockout. As for her companion, Mr. Self Destruct looks so fucking happy, and I cannot help but be thrilled for him, even if the guy didn’t make good on his threat to go Vulcan.

I would hope he’s not actually stupid enough to be engaged to this…*ahem* star fucker. Her hand is bent behind her back because she’s hiding an engagement ring…..supposedly. Trent can’t be THAT stupid………have you seen her Twitter???
Yeah, she’s got a Twitter profile. So?

It’s mind numbing….that’s what’s “So”.
Well, I’ve been a hardcore NIN fan for two decades now. I still remember exactly where I first heard “Head Like A Hole” and how I felt about it. Reznor has an extremely loyal fanbase, myself included. So, I can understand his fans’ “protectiveness,” and I can pretty much see how (mostly) female fans naturally would take a negative slant on any woman he publicly dates. Especially if the woman happens to be an up-and-coming type. However, Rez is a big boy and has a great head on his shoulders. He can totally take care of himself.
Sure but I think I like “Head Like A Hole” a little bit more than you and heard it first. I mean, it really speaks to me, you know?
You guys are missing the point – Trent Reznor showed up to the premiere of a Star Trek movie. That’s the sort of thing that usually only happens in awkward daydreams.
He showed up at the premiere because the film opens on the same night that the NIN/JA tour kicks off.
P.S. Flea, you’re not getting a holiday card this year.
No, you can’t take that away from me!
