Sacha Baron Cohen's gay Austrian character "Bruno" sits on Eminem's face

This is hilarious. Eminem, the notoriously homophobic lily-white American rapper, just had Sacha Baron Cohen's are ass lowered onto his face at an awards show.

He did not look happy. Maybe it was planned, maybe it wasn't. But it's hilarious - it's exactly what Eminem deserves. I had to watch it a few times.

Obviously a publicity stunt for his upcoming movie Bruno (coming out July 10).

Looks pretty funny.

Craig Ferguson, Puppets do Britney Spears

I have to post this because this is likely the best American television moment that has ever occurred between 12:00am and 4:00pm.

Just this performance alone deserves and Emmy or Golden Globe or whatever awards they give to TV shows.

 

(The new YouTube formats don't always fit that well into this blog format, so you may just want to go here)

I thought it was amazing though - I've watched it three times already. If you don't enjoy it, you're probably dead inside.

I'll post another thing that I love. It's in the first 20 seconds - but I'd suggest watching more.

(Or here)

Yeah. Legend. It's one of the only shows worth turning on a TV for. And Gossip Girl - it's all about the GG and the CF.

Miss [Insert geographic region] scandal.

A beauty pageant (see "scholarship program") contest recently condemned gay marriage.

Honestly, I haven't been too bothered, but I just heard the best statement about this:

"She's not an arbiter of social justice, her main skill is looking good in a bikini!" (Craig Ferguson). But it's true. I know we can criticise "public" figures for the opinions they express, but I would actually rather advocate her right to say it than criticise what she says. Actually I'd like to do both, but whatever.

Let her say it - criticize the opinions, use it for a conversation topic, but don't question her right to say it. Because she can and she should be able to. The fact that her nipples have become a bigger (heh) story than her social views speaks for itself. On a few levels.

I don't want to go on about this, because it's not a particularly interesting issue. Except for the attitudes that seem to come out of this. But:

"She's not an arbiter of social justice, her main skill is looking good in a bikini!"

So don't worry. She can say what she wants - and so can you*.

Kanye West arrested!

Kanye West was arrested yesterday morning!

For criminal dress sense!

He was taken into custody by fashion police early yesterday morning - West's publicist refused to comment.

International courts are deliberating the "shutter sunglasses" West may be tried for crimes against humanity for introducing the shutter sunglasses.

Gossip Girl Season 2 Premiere: Better Than Last Year

I always worry about second seasons, sometimes a show that is really good in the first year doesn't manage to sustain the storyline or to keep it interesting. It's always so disappointing when a good show turns to crap in the second season. This wasn't that case with Gossip Girl -- it started off well.
My hopes weren't really high because I wasn't expecting any sort of overwhelming brilliance because it is what it is: Gossip Girl. Scandal and gorgeous rich people. (I won't tell anything that happened) but there was some good drama -- not too much though, probably because they haven't really had the chance to build up the story for this season yet. I was a bit upset because some of the baddies from last season ended up ending up being nice.

My favourite part of the show is the bitchy, brutal people being awful. I don't really want everyone to be friends or show their nice side, but don't doubt that things will get better soon. I'm pretty excited for it - should be good.

Gossip Girl: Season 2

The premier of Gossip Girl, Season 2 is tonight and I can't wait. I already have it recored on the PVR because I'm saving it. I'm getting bills and back to school things sorted right now and watching Die Another Day. So I'm going to save it until a bit later tonight.

I'm not ashamed to say that I got really addicted to Gossip Girl in the spring. I ignored it for a while when it came out, because of both the title and how it looked. I didn't really have any interested because I thought it would be some celebrity-obsessed, bitter/mean blogger kind of thing. So I wasn't that interested.

Then, after being bombarded with the same ad over and over -- flashing images of sexy people having obscene amounts of fun to a very catchy New Young Pony club song, I gave in. I started by downloading the song: Download Ice Cream - New Young Pony Club.mp3 I couldn't find the ad on YouTube but here is the music video for the song:

I eventually gave in, and watched the first episode.

Muppet Show Coming Back!?

I know that Hello! isn't always the most scholarly source, but I'll believe them about this because I want to!
Which is how it's supposed to work.

Jason Segel (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Knocked Up) is doing another muppet movie, and apparently the muppet show could come back? That would be fantastic! I love the muppets - I just watched the muppet's Wizard of Oz a few months ago, and I don't care if it's supposed to be for little children I still enjoyed it - it wasn't as good as some of the muppet movies, but it was good. I was loving Queen Latifah as Auntie Em.

I actually posted a few muppet clips a very, very long time ago in this blog. This is one of the videos I posted before:

How can those pink things not make you smile!? They always make me laugh - if you don't like them, then YOU HAVE NO SOUL.

Come on!
I didn't even post any of Miss Piggy's videos because her raw sexuality is just too much for me tonight.

Not Really Interested...?

There was a while there where I was hardcore into the online celebrity gossip, but it didn't really last. Other stuff kind of came up, and I just forgot about it, then couldn't keep up, and kind of lost interest. It was kind of fun for a while, but I just sort of realized that, hm, I don't really care about these people or what is apparently going on in their lives.

I really just liked looking at the pictures!

Especially during Britney's whole, uh, decline. Those were fun - and Kate Moss and Pete Doherty usually have some entertaining pictures.

Like that. I don't know what is going on there, and I don't really care, but it just makes me smile! Who are those people with Kate Moss, and do they realize that she really isn't edible?

SpiceUpdate

So, Mel C (Sporty Spice - the worst one) apparently decided she might be able to pursue a solo music career...?

She was wrong... but hey! It's the thought that counts.

She looks like the drunk girl at a party that ends up dancing against a wall cause she can't support her own body mass and thinks shes dead sexy, but everyone else laughs at her.

And then later on, some homos in hazmat suits come to clean up the mess, but she tries to molest them. Fortunatly, they are union, and therefore protected.

Dissapointment: Gwen Stefani

I bought Gwen Stefani's new CD today, because I really liked the single (Wind It Up) but it turned out to be a huge dissapointment. There were a few good songs, but most of them are just terrible! Even the ones that I sort of like aren't that great, and they're a little weird.

I was going to post a couple, but its taking forever - so I won't!

But I can only listen to Gwen Stefani sing: "this is the most craziest shit ever," so many times. And so many isn't actually many.
