Admit It, You Kind Of Like Kanye West

kanyewest
No wait, don’t keep scrolling. It’s about time that as a society, we embraced the ugly truth. Kanye West isn’t as bad as we once thought. 

Much like mould on a fine cheese, Yeezy is growing on us, and although it may seem like an icky idea, you’ll be glad it did in the long run. Sure, we once hated his guts for being a narcissistic douchebag, but who ever heard of a humble rapper? Sure, he constantly has a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp, but maybe a list of all the reasons he’s kinda-sorta-maybe not so bad might put a smile on his face and make him feel his Kanye Best?

Diddy Goes Downtown, the First Black Dude to Rock the Abbey

diddy-downton-abbeyLast night, the wee section of the twit-O-sphere that digs both hip hop and British period dramas, wet its collective pants over Diddy’s announcement that he had become a series regular on Downton Abbey. But, alas, it was all in jest … Diddy, that jokester, was just promoting his new Funny Or Die video.

In the video, Diddy clarifies recent press announcing that the upcoming fourth season of his “favorite show of all-time – Downtown Abbey,” will include a black cast member, by explaining that he himself has been there from the beginning. The video then shows footage of Diddy wreaking havoc on Downton, even daring to call the marvelous Dowager Countess “a little bitchy.”

Miley Cyrus Reminds You That It’s Now Legal To Stare At Her Butt Cheeks

miley-cyrus-maxim In a move that would have been frowned-upon a mere three years ago, Maxim has named Miley Cyrus as Number 1 in their annual Hot 100 list.

That’s quite a bump up from her spot at No.68 in last year’s list, although she has had an entire year to earn a few more million dollars to throw at the magazine.

Andy Samberg’s Lonely Island Crew Makes Magic With “Spring Break Anthem”

Spring Break AnthemAndy Samberg and his pals, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, who together form the epic band, The Lonely Island, should probably be deified for their newest piece of gold, “Spring Break Anthem.” The frenzied video juxtaposes the time-honored rowdiness of spring break with the joyful planning and tender consummation of gay marriage. It makes zero sense, but it’s hilarious.

The release of this video marks the debut installment of a lovely new Hump Day tradition begun by the trio, called “Wack Wednesdays,” in which they post new material weekly until the release of their new album, “The Wack Album,” on June 11th.

The video begins with a brief episode of Zach Galifianakis’ chat show Between Two Ferns, in which he interviews the disheveled but gorgeous James Franco. When James tells Zach that he would love to someday work with Edward Norton, Zach responds with the obvious suggestion … that he should marry him.

Man With The World’s Biggest Dick Releases World’s Most Amazing(ly Awful) Music Video

jonah-falconJonah Falcon is not terribly handsome (that’s him there, to the right). Nor does he give the impression of being particularly bright or charming or talented. He does, however, have one rather sizable claim to fame. Jonah has an absolutely massive MASSIVE dick.

Nine inches limp and 13.5 inches hard, to be exact. Or as Jonah describes it “longer than my forearm and bigger than my wrist.” As far as I’m aware, there’s no official word on the size of his balls … but just think about those dimensions for a moment.

While porn seems the most obvious route, Jonah has been clear in the past that he’s not interested in it. Good for him. Way too much dignity. But when you have such an impressive beast in your pants, you have to find some way to profit off of it.

Shut the Hell Up, Lauryn Hill. And Pay Your Taxes Like Everyone Else

Lauryn-HillDespite offering a series of nonsensical excuses for her actions, hip hop star Lauryn Hill has been sentenced to three months in prison for failing to pay a colossal amount of money in income taxes over the past decade. She will also be under house arrest for an additional three months and parole supervision for a full year. And she must pay a whopping fine.

Looking considerably less glam than she used to … I guess six young kids and looming jail time will do that to you … Lauryn had the balls to compare her tragic experience as a tax shirker to her ancestor’s experience with slavery. Not a shrewd move, Ms. Hill. She ought to have avoided that line of defense and instead just explained that she has six fucking kids and she would have gotten a lot more sympathy.

People understand about the exhaustion and forgetfulness that accompanies parenthood … though, ultimately that defense wouldn’t have worked either since even with a hundred kids she could have still hired a fucking accountant. Or asked a friend to watch them for a few hours while she popped over to H&R Block.

The 2013 Met Gala Would Make Sid Vicious Turn In His Grave

Met gala mileyThe theme of the 2013 Met Gala was “PUNK: Chaos to Couture” – and yet not one person showed up with safety pin through their lip and  ’Never Mind The Bollocks’ scribbled in marker pen across their bare chest. Congratulations Miley Cyrus, you are now completely useless.

Unless there’s a secret branch of punk that decides to stick it to the man through carefully styled Givenchy gowns and red lipstick, some people really should have read the invitation more carefully. Some people did made a commendable effort by doing strange things to their hair and gluing random studs to themselves. Some people had obviously picked an outfit before they heard about the theme and just thought ‘screw it’. And some people were Madonna.

Helen Mirren is a Royal Badass

Helen Mirren as Queen Elizabeth IIHelen Mirren is a great actress with a good sense of humor, a fantastic rack, and, evidently, a bit of a temper. Last weekend, when her highly acclaimed theatrical performance as Queen Elizabeth II in “The Audience” was interrupted by loud drumming outside the theater, a pissed-off Helen dashed right out … wig, pearls, and all … and told the drummers to fuck off.

At least one audience member had attempted to shut them up to no avail, but it was the vision of petite Queen Helen yelling obscenities at them that did the trick. Just imagine it …

No Amount Of Camouflage Can Hide Honey Boo Boo’s Family

honeybooboo and mama juneGrab your cousin-wife and fry up some squirrel because June ‘Mama’ Shannon and Mike ‘Sugar Bear’ Thompson –  rural Georgia’s answer to Brangelina - got hitched this weekend in all their camouflaged glory. 

It’s every bit as white trash as you’re imagining it. The ‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ power couple met in an internet chat room nine years ago (imagine that episode of Catfish) and have reportedly decided to make it official because “it was important for [their daughters] to see this moment and celebrate [Mama June's] love for Sugar Bear.” And that celebration looked a little something like this…

John Stamos’ Pervy New Show Is Doomed

john-stamos-1It was recently announced that everyone’s favorite Beach Boy, John Stamos, will host a new series in which celebrities are reunited with their first bang, cleverly called “Losing My Virginity With John Stamos.”

The concept for the show, which will debut next year on Yahoo, was developed as a result of John’s own unplanned reunion with his firstie, and the insightful, even inspiring, realization that everyone has a first time … and who wouldn’t want to share all the dirty details about it on the Internet for the world and their mom to see?
