Poor Nancy Grace just can’t catch a break! Just a few weeks in, her Dancing with the Stars career has already been marred by her nip slip, and now her farting during Monday’s show. Nancy denies both, of course, but now a fart fetishist group is keeping the latter alive—because they’re trying to buy the three-second footage from ABC. More »
Did you guys read Roald Dahl when you were kids? I sure did. Matilda was my favorite book, and somehow, I managed not to end up terrified of every teacher I ever had, even after reading it. Now, elementary-school-me didn’t really know that much about the author of my favorite book, but frankly, I didn’t really care. It was only when I got older that I found out that Roald Dahl was REALLY, REALLY WEIRD. I suppose the types of stories he wrote should have been an early indication of his weirdness, but much is lost on the young. Anyway, I’m probably lucky that by the time I started reading his books, he was dead, which meant that I couldn’t try to send him letters. These kids weren’t so lucky. More »
Morgan Spurlock‘s new documentary POM Wonderful Presents The Greatest Movie Ever Sold is in theaters today, April 22 — perhaps you’ve already gotten the joke. A doc about making a movie that’s funded entirely by corporate sponsors (he uses Iron Man as his yardstick), all of the footage is of Spurlock approaching these corporations for funding. It’s a little bit Inception-y — “I’m watching Morgan Spurlock call up [x corporation] to give him money, and they’re talking about how in the movie the footage would be of him calling the company…” — and very meta. It’s also fascinating and very entertaining. More »
Some films are classics because of the great acting performances or the stunning cinematography. And some of them are classics because they’re so horrifically bad that they’re hilarious. The Room, of course, falls into the latter category. More »
Elizabeth Taylor was one of the most famous actors of our time, her legendary beauty, style and of course talent was something that was always admired. She gave support to AIDS research by starting a foundation in memory of her close friend Rock Hudson (who died of the disease). She was glamorous, savvy and talented, winning two Oscars. Her nickname was “One Shot Liz” for being able to do a scene in one take, I had to do a double take when reading some of the obits all over the internet. Some are downright hateful, and others brazenly rude. I am appalled. The fact that so many people have forgotten what a star Liz Taylor was is just depressing.

James Franco Reaches Singularity, Teaches Class On Self While Filming Said Class For Art – Crushable editor Meghan Keane responds: “Gosh.” (Gawker)
It’s fun to use our imagination! So even though there is probably some sort of reasonable explanation for this Russian television program – where a woman in a wedding dress gets karate-chopped in the stomach by a man standing next to another woman in a wedding dress, while the audience boos and pelts furniture at a fourth unfortunate dude stuck on stage – we want you to come up with the story that led to this moment. Okay? Lets go! More »
Unicorn meat stuck at the border. Canned unicorn meat is one of our favorite things. Who doesn’t love plush unicorn parts in a can? But customs officials do not feel the same way. They have retained a sample as “meat of a ‘rare’ animal” at the German border. (ThinkGeek)
A lot of time, publicists email us with press releases for products we would never in a million years care about. But once in awhile, you find a diamond in the rough. Such is the case with Spirit Hoods, which are made in the “‘Spirit Den’ in the heart of LA” and are basically giant fake furt hats with sleeves and paws attached. No, they aren’t for Halloween, they are for every day-wear. Ke$ha wears them! So we turn to,… More »
Controversy of the Day (it’s a real story, we swear): A Florida woman reportedly crashed her car while trying to trim her bikini line while driving. We repeat: SHE WAS TRYING TO TRIM HER BIKINI LINE WHILE DRIVING. If there were a list of things you shouldn’t do while driving, we wouldn’t have even considered putting this on the list because WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?
First of all, taking a razor anywhere close to that area is something you should… More »
Thanks, but no thanks: If wearing a ranger hat and hiking up the wrong way on the escalator at the mall is something the “modern woman” should want to do, maybe we’re a little more old-fashioned than we thought.

This seriously has to be the weirdest pairing since Michael Jackson and anything that wasn’t a ten year old boy. Jessica Simpson and Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins are apparently…..dating. I KNOW! Pick up your jaw and pop back your eyeballs, honey.
Official word is that Jessica has fallen hard and is “smitten” with the 42 year old singer. Um, first, how can Billy Corgan be 42, and second, Jessica Simpson probably said the same thing about… More »
