When I opened up my Inbox this morning, I saw that my Aunt had sent me an email titled, “Take a look and tell me if this doesn’t effect you viscerally“. I admit, I was slightly hesitant to open the email, even though it’s pretty certain my hippie relative isn’t sending me gross porn (although, I can never quite be sure with her).
After opening the email and watching this video, however, I had to look away three times because I was so viscerally effected thought I was gonna cry. Something about the sappy yet happy music, the geeky dancing, kids doing the geeky dancing…I don’t know. It was kind of beautiful (and geeky).
Hey, remember Trapped in the Closet? You know, R. Kelly’s AMAZING twenty-three part R&B soap opera chronicling the twists and turns in the life of protagonist Sylvester (R. Kelly) and about ten million secondary characters who are all tangled in the same sexy web of lies and interconnected boot-knockin’? Well R. Kelly’s Trial Debating Whether Or Not I Am In Fact A Huge Creep That Pisses On Underage Girls On Video is like Trapped in the Closet, but so so so much more kick ass.
To give you a little background, it all started in 2002 when music critic Jim DeRogatis was given a video by a currently unnamed source featuring what appeared to be R. Kelly giving an allegedly underage girl money, then getting a BJ from her, having sex with her, and pissing on her. DeRogatis broke the story in the Chicago Sun-Times, and shortly thereafter R. Kelly was charged with soliciting a minor for child pornography, seven counts of videotaping the acts, and seven counts of producing child pornography. Now, six years after the initial indictment, the trial has begun and it’s like the sexy remix of the O.J. Simpson trial. Read More »
The only thing I like more than D-list celeb gossip is FAKE D-list celeb gossip.
Recently, at a club in Houston, a promoter hosted a party and reportedly told everyone Kim Kardashian was going to be there. Then “Kim” rolled up sporting sunglasses and was hidden behind a curtain – most likely to conceal the fact that “Kim” looks less like Ms. Kardashian and more like (in the words of the great Christian Siriano) a hot tranny mess.
Real Kim caught wind of the scam and blogged about it on her site, stating that she has absolutely not been in Houston lately and won’t be any time soon, and therefore hopes that no one confuses her with a potential tranny.
Now this is where things get good. Today, TMZ posted a video of one of Harvey Levin’s classy minions interviewing the fake Kim along with one of her friends, and while I recommend viewing it yourself to fully experience the ghettoness that is Fake Kim, a.k.a. Miss Natasha, I’ll offer a little list of the main points that are covered: Read More »
Maybe you’ve heard about this criz-azyYoutube video by actress and now jilted ex-wife Tricia Walsh Smith (her used-to-be man owns a bunch of big Broadway theaters in NYC). Smith was so angry at her grandfather of a husband for dumping her, that she recorded herself going on a giant tirade about the whole thing (which included her breaking down into tears and calling his secratary to question her about “con-domes” [seriously, that's how she said it] she found at their shared apartment) and then uploaded that tirade onto YouTube.
Maybe she was so pissed off at getting dumped she just went black with rage and couldn’t think of any other way of getting the attention she needed. Maybe she thought the best revenge was one served to millions of Internet users all around the world. Who knows what made Smith share her very dirty laundry with the general populace. People get irrational when they’re kicked to the curb. The thing that’s important about this weird story?
She’s not the only one.
According to this NYT article, it’s becoming more and more acceptable to spill your guts to the world via blogging, and more and more acceptable to include really intimate details about your relationship (or current lack thereof). Read More »
If you’ve ever had the pleasure of stumbling across the stereotypical d-bag AKA Guido AKA meathead AKA frat boy, you probably also had the pleasure of wondering if perhaps showering in bleach will burn the creep-residue off your skin.
Identified by his spiked hair, popped collar, big muscles, and a tan that looks like he just spent the last two months in the Caribbean, he is a guy that people really love to hate.
In fact, people love to hate this guy so much a video tribute was made to celebrate the very essences that makes this character so unique. Check out the video, and for bonus enjoyment check out the spin-off editions, odds are you probably have seen those guys, too.
You’re going to have to wait a bit before catching the video for Gnarls Barkley’s new single, “Run” on MTV. But it’s for your own good. We wouldn’t want you having an epileptic seizure, after all.
According to a report from Reuters, the video’s strobe effects caused it to fail the Harding Test, a test that was established to prevent television images from triggering epileptic seizures.
Gnarls Barkley member, Danger Mouse, told Billboard.com that he doesn’t really know what’s going on, “I think (the video) is cool. It works for me. But I’m not necessarily that easily seasick.”
Sorry Danger Mouse, but I’m pretty sure that getting seasick and having an epileptic seizure are two very different things.
Of course, even though MTV is waiting to air the video, which is based around a fictional television show set in the early 90s, there are various websites currently featuring it. If you want to risk going into epileptic shock, check the video out. Otherwise, you might want to wait until it passes the Harding Test. Read More »
The votes are in, and it’s clear: Sarah Silverman is, indeed, living out all of our dreams.
For those of you who haven’t checked YouTube or read gossip blogs or engaged in casual conversation, or, I don’t know, LEFT THE ISOLATED LOG CABINS YOU’VE APPARENTLY BEEN LIVING IN for the past several weeks, the story is as follows: Sarah Silverman gifted her boyfriend, Jimmy Kimmel, with a lovely music video entitled “I’m F*&king Matt Damon.”
It’s pretty much what you’d expect, although I think the sexually charged dance-off in the middle took us all by surprise. (Another surprise: brilliant, hot-as-hell Sarah Silverman is dating Jimmy Kimmel. Never has there been such a clear visual demonstration of the term “settling.”) Jimmy, not too shy to ride on his lady’s coattails, responded with “I’m F*&king Ben Affleck,” which may be the crowning achievement of his life to date, if only for the fact that it features a singing Don Cheadle.
Yet, singing Don Cheadle aside, most of you seem to feel that Jimmy has come out on the losing end of this deal. A recent CollegeCandy poll shows that, if given the choice, most of our readers would rather be making out with Matt.
Never have I felt such confidence in our readers. Read More »
I am the last girl on this planet who WANTS to like Ashlee Simpson. Yet, despite the low points she has hit in her career thus far, she has always seemed like the Simpson sibling with a brain and creativity.
I’m guessing that juxtaposing Jessica against any Lower East Side bar hopping twenty-something would lead me to the same conclusion…nonetheless, Ashlee has kept rolling with her career despite past mistakes. With a new nose, new hair, and a punk rock boo, she seems to always be reinventing herself.
Her first single off of her new album…did not suck. I really found myself liking “Outta My Head” and I thought the video was awesome. But as with most songs/videos that I like; the public didn’t take well to it.
Her newest single, “Little Miss Obsessive” is much more accessible…but luckily, it’s still not sucky. It’s certainly no example of genius musical composition. BUT it’s catchy and the lyrics are pretty familiar to me….as I think they would be for any girl: Read More »
