MTV has a piece asking if the current internet craze of superimposing Kanye West over something to interrupt it is the new LOLCATS. GTFO, MTV, there will never be another LOLCATS. (Have you ever seen LOLDOGS? SMH.) But these are mildly amusing in a “last post of the day” kind of way. (If I knew […]

Abercrombie and Fitch Launch Pre-Emptive Lawsuit Against Beyonce
Beyonce has an alter ego named Sasha Fierce. But her real name is Beyonce! You don’t need to invent a superstar alter-ego when you were obviously born and groomed (and named) to be a superstar. She says she becomes Sasha Fierce onstage, and that the rest of the time she’s just a regular person like […]

Coldplay Victorious in Fight Against Joe Satriani, My Eardrums
Coldplay vs. Joe Satriani. Quick! Name a fight card featuring two worse musical acts. Pink Floyd vs. Norah Jones? Maybe 311 vs. Jack Johnson? Perhaps Daughtry vs. Jordin Sparks?

Jay-Z Is More Successful, Better Than Elvis
Did you know that Elvis is one of those legends of music that only people with bad taste in music love? He’s a lot like Led Zeppelin, The Clash, and Johnny Cash in that respect. All legends, all suck. Jay-Z became the most successful solo artist in history (as measured by #1 albums) this week, […]
Whitney Remembers Michael
Whitney Houston sat down with Oprah Winfrey for Part Deux of her tell-all-interview yesterday, and among the revelations? How she reacted to Michael Jackson’s death. “Devastating. I have so many good memories of spending time with him. I’ve known his family for so many years that I thought, ‘It can’t be true.’ I knew he […]

ODB came to the stage, took the mic, and went on a rant […]
Happy Birthday, Amy Winehouse!
Feliz Cumpleaños, Amy Winehouse! The singer turns 26 today, despite having the voice and health of a 67 year old washwoman from the slums of Haiti. (I mean that in the best way possible). Eat a heroin-laced red velvet cupcake in her honor today!
YouTube is like an NPR Call-In Show for Idiots with Opinions About Kanye West
I measure the impact of controversial events on society by reading YouTube comments. I’m not interested in the opinion of the Ivy League-educated ivory tower-dwellers who bloviate on cable. They’re paid to have a position on everything whether they mean it or not; YouTube commenters are motivated by passion alone, and there’s a whole lot […]
