Quotables: Kanye Applies for Martyrdom

Kanye West performs at the 2011 Essence Music Festival I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street, and people look at me like I'm (expletive) insane, like I'm Hitler. One day the light will shine through and one day people will understand everything I ever did. ---Kanye West, during a concert on Saturday. The entire speech, delivered during West's performance of "Monster": ...

Some Nicki Minaj Nip Aired on ‘Good Morning America’ Today

Nicki Minaj adjusts her strap in anticipation of an impending nipslip Well, Good Morning, America! Nicki Minaj performed this morning on GMA, and earlybirds on the East Coast got an eyeful. The live show started with "Where Them Girls At," and by song's end, we knew exactly where them girls were at. Them girls were all over live TV! In the video, Minaj obviously knows she's in trouble---she's picking at the strap of her tiny top every chance she can steal---but she never stops bouncing around long enough to tuck her globes back in completely. And that is ...

Mr. Bean Wrecks a Million-Dollar Car

Atkinson's McLaren F1 is towed from the crash site Oh, Mr. Bean! You're so wacky! Kidding. Rowan Atkinson wrecking his million-dollar sports car might actually be funny if it had happened in an episode of a television show; instead, it happened yesterday evening on the A605. Atkinson suffered only a fractured shoulder blade, miraculously. He was discharged from the hospital just this afternoon. The car wasn't so lucky. It was a McLaren F1 supercar which, at speeds of 240mph, is often acknowledged as the world's fastest "production" road v...

Presidents In Party Hats

Our President, in a big stupid party hat President Obama celebrated his 50th birthday yesterday! Happy birthday, Mr. President! And how did Madame Tussauds D.C. celebrate the occasion? PARTY HATS. PARTY HATS FOR EVERYBODY. Something about this whole display gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies. The wax figures themselves look like reflections in a funhouse mirror. Another thing: I am actually vaguely offended by the party hats. No matter your opinion of our Commander-in-Chief, I don't think his effigy needed to spend his Big ...

Viral Video: Teen Kelly Ripa on ‘Dancin’ On Air’

Once upon the 1980s, dancing was all the rage. Back then, teenagers danced in front of their television sets. They also crimped their hair and wore Keds with scrunchy socks. And then there was Dancin' On Air, a "dance reality" program broadcast live from Philadelphia. Many would-be starlets appeared on the show, yet there was none so eager as little Kelly Ripa. (Dancin' On Air was also responsible for Will Smith and Madonna's television debuts.) /> Once upon the 1980s, dancing was all the rage. Back then, teenagers danced in front of their television sets.

Jason Bateman Does ‘Teen Wolf Too’

Ah! It's everyone's favorite crinkly-eyed boyfriend, Jason Bateman, doing his promotional rounds for The Change-Up. And God, is he likeable. He seems so warm and genuine, even though everything he says is dripping with irony. Just like Chandler Bing! But before Jason became high-strung Michael Bluth, he paid his dues as a child actor. Worst offense? That would be Teen Wolf Too, the 1980s' most needless sequel. Still, every grievous mistake is an opportunity for redemption. So here's Mr. Bateman with Jimmy Fallon, reenacting a scene from Teen Wolf Too. /> Ah! It's everyone's favorite crinkly-eyed boyfriend, Jason Bateman, doing his promotional rounds for The Change-Up.

Howie Mandel Has An Office at Vivid Entertainment

Howie Mandel in a tight little polo shirt Eeeewwwwww! Howie Mandel is reportedly subletting an office in the Vivid Entertainment building! Vivid is the most prodigious porn production company in the world---they make all those porn parodies you hate to love. Meanwhile, Mandel is so notoriously germaphobic he can't even shake hands with contestants on Deal or No Deal, so this is some seriously twisted OCD immersion therapy, man. I bet under ultraviolet light, Vivid's offices look like a Pollock painting. How will Mandel even function? Still, TMZ reports that Mandel's office space has bee...

Kanye West Hired Gordon Ramsay?

Kanye with Jay-Z on August 1 in NYC Our baby is growing up! If rumors are true, Kanye West has hired Gordon Ramsay to teach him how to cook. (Kanye reportedly wants to impress his entourage in the kitchen.) Please, please let this really happen. They're my two favorite hotheads! How the first cooking lesson will go, probably: Gordon: Hello? Kanye: Yo, dawg, I heard you like fresh herbs in your casserole, so I started a garden on my windowsill. Gordon: Oh, for F----'s sake. Kanye: Hang on, I think I forgot the casserole in the oven. *puts on a t...

Love Liza

Liza, having a ciggie, sipping Coca-Cola through a straw Celeb fashion photographer Terry Richardson glammed up Liza Minnelli---the original Hot Mess, kiddies---for a new photo spread in Issue 6 of LOVE Magazine. Miss Minnelli is 65 damn years old, but she's still got the stems of Catherine Zeta-Jones, the clavicle of Lindsay Lohan, and the ferocity of Patti Smith. There's aging gracefully, and then there's aging LOUD. Do not go gentle! P.S. I did not initially catch that, in the photo up top, Liza is gussied up as a weary-eyed Statue of Liberty! Ge...

‘Batman’ Carjacker: “It’s in the Script!”

Just so we're clear, this is a replica 'Keaton' Batmobile.(Pictured: the Batmobile. Unpictured: an unmarked police car. Preemptive apologies for any misunderstandings.) Over the weekend, some kid---loitering near the Pittsburgh set of The Dark Knight Rises, incidentally---decided to try to carjack a plainclothes police detective. And how did our young criminal intend to mastermind this heist? Why, he simply opened the door, jumped into an unoccupied seat, and ordered the undercover detective out of his vehicle. And then, according to the Associate...

JLo ‘Likeness’ Not All That Likeable

Faux Jennifer Lopez giving the stink-eye at Tussauds August 1 I'm sorry, Jennifer Lopez. I'm really, really sorry. I'm not sure what I did, but I swear I will never do it again. Please, please stop looking at me like that. Wait, what? This is just a wax figure? The Real JLo isn't angry at me? Oh, thank God. Madame Tussauds Hollywood "relaunched" their wax figure of Jennifer Lopez yesterday; even the replica looked annoyed about attending the event (via Idolator). [gallery columns="6"]...
