15 Awesome Pirates Who Were Around Before Jack Sparrow
Don’t get me wrong: I love me some Captain Jack. The first Pirates of the Caribbean movie was far better than it really had any right to be, given that it was based on an amusement park ride, and Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow was a major part of that success. But Sparrow isn’t the only awesome pirate out there; on the contrary, there are boatloads (‘scuz the terrible, terrible pun) who have done their time swinging from the mast. Here are some of our favorites.– get ready to buckle some swashes! More »

Poll: Johnny Depp’s Kids Think Iron Man Is Cooler Than Jack Sparrow
Things I did not know about Johnny Depp:
1) His distinctive sense of style was developed through the careful perfection of the “reach into the closet and wear whatever you grab” technique.
2) He used to use the name “Mr. Stench” as an alias during hotel stays, mostly because he enjoyed hearing the hotel staff say “This is your 6 o’clock wake-up call, Mr. Stench.” (Bonus if it’s in a foreign accent.)
3) He fears dancing.
4) His kids think Iron Man is cooler than Jack Sparrow. More »
4/20 Gallery: Celebs on the Cover of High Times Magazine
Hey, everyone, it’s 4/20 — the giggliest day of the year! If this were high school, we’d probably wake and bake, then spend the rest of the day zoning out on Mr. Cho’s algebra lesson (whoooa, that “y” looks like a monster), but now that we’ve reached adulthood, we’re content to drink a cup of copy and stare at High Times Magazine. Check out this gallery of celebs who have appeared on the cover of the pot-themed publication.

The 15 Best Instances of Enforced Method Acting
Last week, I happened upon a fascinating article at TV Tropes that discusses the Hollywood practice of Enforced Method Acting. As opposed to when actors get really into their roles through Method acting, EMA is when directors/producers manipulate the circumstances of a movie or TV show — without the actors knowing — in order to get a more genuine reaction out of their stars. You could lose an hour reading through the list, but to save you time we’ve counted down the fifteen examples from film and TV that took us by surprise. More »
Gallery: Celebs With Tattoos Of Inspirational Sayings

Gallery: These Dudes Are “Homeless Hot”
There are so many different ways for guys to look attractive. They can be sporty, or preppy, or naked. And then there’s our current obsession, which we feel compelled to label “homeless hot.” These guys are all scruff and tattered clothing, and they always look like they could use a nap. You can tell that some of these dudes (Michael Pitt, Reeve Carney) put a lot of effort into looking homeless, while others (Mark Ruffalo, Matthew McConaughey) just naturally give off that vibe — probably because they don’t try very hard at all. Check out our gallery and let us know if we left anyone out. More »
Video: ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ Trailer
Mermaids? Zombies? Penelope Cruz? Oh my! The new Pirates of the Caribbean trailer looks insane! After three installments, we thought we were done with this franchise, but this looks so delightfully weird that we may have to go see it. Also, it’s crazy how much Penelope’s character looks like the female Jack Sparrow. More »

Ben Barnes…Revealed!
While everyone was busy seeing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows this weekend, I was snoozing at home, re-watching The Chronicles of Narnia and thinking how hot Prince Caspian is. At 29, Ben Barnes is actually older than me, which feels better than seeing those Harry Potter and Twilight kids on screen and feeling like an old creep.
Though Narnia doesn’t seem to get quite the attention of HP or Twilight, we predict only big things in Ben’s future, including December’s release of the latest Narnia installment, Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Here are 5 tidbits about the British actor to keep in your memory bank for whenever Ben makes his breakout from children’s films. More »
Gallery: Best of ‘Sassy’ Magazine Covers
So Jane Pratt, the editor of the late 80s/early 90s teen zine Sassy, may be launching a similar-themed magazine with tween fashion blogger Tavi Gevinson. That is the best news we’ve heard all year for the magazine world, because the sardonic writing and awesome spreads in Sassy were one of the biggest influencing factors for all of us here at Crushable. They were Jezebel, pre-Jezebel, but without as much politics. They were Nylon, but with funnier copy. They were, essentially, who we wanted to be. And oh yeah, they had the most amazing covers that amazingly stand the test of time. We dare you to tell us otherwise. More »
Style Crush: Chloe Sevigny
Saying we have a style crush on Chloe Sevigny is like saying we have a regular crush on Johnny Depp: it’s so obvious as to be practically redundant. Yet at the same time, we see no reason to deprive you of photos of Chloe’s killer outfits when they’re just a few clicks of our eager fingertips away. So we’re yelling it from the rooftops: we’re in love with Miss Sevigny’s super rad ensembles and we don’t care if you already know that More »
Crushable Quotable: Ke$ha Wants To Be A Sexy Pirate
Pop star Ke$ha pretty much embodies the definition of a dirty girl. She often looks like she is wearing something out of a very expensive dumpster when she appears at events. At the VMAs this year, she even showed up wearing a garbage bag dress. And she’s fine with people thinking she’s dirty. Ke$ha tells Vulture:
“I’m trying to look like a cross between Keith Richards and a hobo. But like a really ridiculously hot hobo. Or like a sexy pirate.”
One piece of advice to you, Ke$ha: Don’t try to beat Johnny Depp at his own game. More »
Crushable Quotable: Keith Richards Thought Johnny Depp Was A Drug Dealer
Pretty much everyone knows that Johnny Depp‘s lovable Jack Sparrow character in the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise was based on Rolling Stone guitarist Keith Richards. But today we learned an awesome bit of information from Keith. He met Johnny Depp in the 80s, when the hearthrob was a friend of his son’s. And Keith just assumed he was a drug dealer. Why not? It was the 80s.
Also, his reaction when he found out Depp was a movie star is pretty amazing.
Things that we will be saying for the indefinite future: “Woah… Scissorhands.” More »
