Crush Crush Crush

I'm obsessed with Hayley Williams and Twilight so here is the acoustic version of Paramore's song for the Twilight soundtrack, "Decode." Because it's the holidays and everyone deserves a cute red-headed present.

Romeo + Juliet

Okay I know that Taylor Swift is a squinty-eyed and untrustable but I saw this video this morning on MTV and it seriously made me cry. I am also seriously obsessed with all Romeo/Juliet songs nowadays (including that stupid check yes juliet song) but whatever. This song is really good and you should like it.

Lost Is Life

I am gay for LOST and this video is making me cry at work. I wish that it didn't have clips from The Fray video but I also don't care because its so mindblowing. And the part with Penny and Des talking to each on the phone... forget it. Life is meaningless until January.

If You Had A Bad Day

I've just been in a generally pissy mood today and nothing could really get me out it (not even French Connection). That is until I saw this video. Will it thoroughlly traumatize you? God yes. Will it be worth it? You be the judge. But I actually felt a lot better after watching it. Make sure you finish it to the end becase therein lies the glory moment.

Why?

Also, I'm glad my images keep getting real fucked up when I upload them. Neat.

Happiness Is New Shoes

You are mine. I can die happy.

I Make It Hot

Say what you want but... this video is awesome. Britney looks hot like fire, she actually is moving around a little and her body looks out of control. Get on with your bad self girl, because Britney is back. Or at least, better. Work on your live stuff Brit!!

All I Want For Christmas Is You

I have wanted a Sphynx kitten for a really long time. They are bizarre looking/feeling and kind of evil. Plus they look even more ridiculous than regular animals while dressed in clothing. They run about for about a thousand sooo buy one for me because me and Mr. Linderman need to be united so I can love him forever and make him wear little kitten sweaters.

Pure Satisfaction

Best album of 2008 just sayin. No but seriously, Circus is a great album and any Britney fan will be totally into it. Black Out was what it was, but Circus actually sounds like Britney sang (or attempted to anyway) these songs and actually had some enthusiasm for it. I can't wait for her to go on tour so I can spend a billion dollars to watch lipsynch and wriggle awkwardly on stage. I've also been listening a lot to Kanye West- 808s and Heartbreak and The Killers- Day and Age. Both albums are sooo good. I'm so impressed by Kanye's new album. It really deviates from his normal style but it hits hard. Definitely check them out.

WHICH WILL YOU CHOOSE

So sick, seriously. Everyone looks so hot. I freaking love JJ and all I want to do is lick ZQ's beautiful, beautiful eyebrows. I also choose my Destiny Life, so anytime an eclipse is ready to come and give me my powers or some spacemen feel like stopping by and picking me up or my maker is ready to, eh, make me? I'll be waiting.

I Rescind My Invitation

I don't know how many of you watch True Blood, but...... if Sookie leaves Bill for Sam, I will never forgive you. YOU HEAR ME ALAN?! NEVER!

ok, maybe one day. But seriously, fuck that ho and that shape shifting motherfucker.

Yes We Did

America, thank you so very much for doing the right thing. I can say today that I am truly proud to be an American, something I have not felt in a long time. If you didn't see this truly beautiful speech last night please watch it now.



P.S. Anyone else feel like its way Morpheus in the Matrix 2? Too soon?

November 4

Voting is cool. Exercise being a good American and vote tomorrow.

We're Going On Vacation, Baby

Holy fuck. What does it mean when a promo for a television show has you in tears? And its not like one of those crappy lady shows. Whatever, who cares. I PRESENT TO YOU A TRAILER FOR LOST SEASON 5, thank me later with your salty island tears.


OMGggggg, please gimme this nows. Also JJ DONT FUCK IT UP

Suck On This

Thanks Luke.

ZQ/Spock

Some pics of ZQ as Spock because uh why not. My dad really loved Star Trek and when I was younger I would watch it with him (I loved Jordy) so now that J.J.A. is directing one starring my favorite serial killer, he and I will have something cute to do together. PLUS HE STILL LOOKS HOT SOMEHOW. Like seriously let me lick your eyebrows.



Also hay good thing you play Sylar as all your characters.

We All Get Fucked

See more Hayden Panettiere videos at Funny or Die

Normally I would say, a political humor video sprinkled with profanity done by my favorite cheerleader is something I would post here without even watching because come on, its Hayden cussing. But I have to say, ALL THESE POLITICAL VIDEOS ARE SO FUCKING AWFUL. The Paris Hilton ones I actually find pretty hilarious but aside from maybe the Sarah Silverman video they have all been pretty terrible and not funny at all. Funny or Die + Political Videos - Paris Hilton = Die. If you've seen the Jess Alba and Hayden "muzzle" one you know what I'm talking about, because I didn't even post it here and I'm pretty sure we all know that Hayden Panettiere in a muzzle is up there on my fantasy list.

I wouldn't have even put this one on here either because truly, it's not funny at all. Except for the last 3 seconds. It's not even so much what she says as the look on her face when she says it. I don't know, this video sucks so you can skip through the whole thing and just watch the 4 seconds and be just as well off.

You've Got The Hunger

So since I had Ed Westwick fever I skipped over chatting about Heroes this week, but frankly it was such an insane episode I think we need to go back and examine. I had serious concerns about this episode because last week's preview showed a tamed Sylar cooking breakfast and cheerily greeting Peter and frankly I can't support a nonpsychotic Sylar. I was greeeatly pleased to see that the teaser was misleading and the whole episode is fucking awesome. This season has been doing a great job of manipulating my views of characters (a la LOST) so I think it's time to take a minute to discuss.

Sylar, for starters. Okay I was greatly pleased to see that Gabriel Gray was not some magical transformation he had gone through from being partnered with HRG but rather Future Gabriel who says he controls his maniacal desire to kill everyone in sight because of his son, who is conveniently named Noah (who slept with him!?!?) - AND he has Mr. Muggles!!!

So clearly HRG and Mama Bennet are both dead and Sylar has taken over the Bennet house. Also, a big tx to Heroes for showing us what exactly Sylar's power is (intuitive ability) and that it is able to be absorbed- I don't know why I felt like it was unabsorbable but I guess it's because they've never really explained what exactly it is that Sylar does besides kill people and then somehow have their ability afterwards.

Peter is now turning into the Jack of Heroes in my opinion. Future Peter went into the past and fucked everything up. Then he brings Peter into the future and tells him to find Sylar and promptly is killed by Future Claire (who has turned into a raging brunette bitch bent on killing both of him), sending Peter on a quest to Costa Verde, absorbing Sylar's power, killing Sylar's son and therefore 200,000 other people (damn that radioactive exploding power), fucking the future up even more, then going and murdering his own brother because he has The Hunger and because he can't stop fucking everything up.

Mohinder.. time to die, seriously. He's a greedy naive fool who was jealous of the people with abilities. He gave Sylar his powers back even after he's murdered countless people, including his father, and tried to blow up New York City. Then he injected himself with a formula he conconcted cause he thinks he's smart and wanted to give himself a power, but now he's turning into something like the Fly. Die die die die. I'm so over this fool.

I don't exactly know how I feel about people in the future being able to give themselves powers, and I don't know how I feel about some of our current characters having been given their power (Nathan Petrelli for example). It seems to just generally cheapen the fact that therer are people with amazing abilities, and the whole "these people are the evolution of humanity" theme. Only time shall tell I guess.

This Is the Biggest Depression Since The Notebook

My blog is totally political and shit.

Palinphenalia

Vote or Die Part 2

So, P. Diddy is definitely certifiably insane and if you've ever seen Making the Band or I Want to Work for Diddy or basically ever heard anything even remotely relevant then you would not argue that point. One thing he is not though is stupid. I've really been enjoying his political videos. They're bizarre and a little bit creepy but its good to see that he's trying to voice his opinion in a way that maybe young people are more receptive to. Here's a new video about why Sarah Palin scares him.



I can't stress enough how important voting is this election, and I REALLY can't stress enough how important it is to vote based on who you think is going to be able to do the best job for this country. Don't get stuck in media bullshit. Don't get trapped by Democratic/Republican party boundaries. And please, please please don't vote for someone just because they are "pretty" (ahem, Kristin) - and at the same time, don't NOT vote for someone just because they are black. Our country is in a dire state and it's time for us to stand up and make some changes. If deep in your heart you truly believe in what Sarah Palin says then by all means vote for her and John McCain. But please consider that when McCain has a heart attack in office we are stuck with somebody who can't even name one newspaper or publication of reputation she's read and thinks international relations means being able to see Russia from Alaska. Tonight is Sarah Palin v Joe Biden, everybody should tune in.

Herve Bebe

One of my favorite current celeb trends is the Herve Leger bandage dresses that everybody is wearing. They are so flattering, the colors are bold and they're just fun. Unfortunately I don't really have 1200$+ to spend on a dress right now so I was pretty bummed that I wouldn't be getting one anytime soon.

Happily though, bebe makes a pretty damn good imitation (and for 98$ how can you argue?). It's obviously not as nice or as quality as the Leger ones but there is about 1000$ standing between them and it's still totally cute. They make a black and red, brown and purple and black and 24k gold (below). I really do like the black and yellow but I'm not sure if it looks too bumble bee-ish. I guess I'll have to go try them on and find out!

It's Monday, So

Whatever this video is really shitty quality, but.. you know.

Vote Or Die

Everyone, whether you are planning to vote Republican or Democrat, please please please watch the debates starting tonight. This is an extremely important time in history for this country and we need to really make an informed decision (I'm looking at you, Palin supporters). I obviously won't be watching because I am getting drunk, but if you don't watch, how will I ever know what happened?

Check out these hilarious campaign posters on cracked.com.

The Return of H.R.G.

Yes! Tonight! Finally, after spending these past few months watching Volumes One and Two of Heroes (barely- we just finished the volume two finale last night) we get to start Volume Three- Villains tonight!!! My heart is going to explode I seriously can't even wait. I spoiled myself a little by reading the story that TV Guide wrote about the new season and reading some really dirty spoilers which has really just excited me more than anything. Not to mention that its three hours long- a one hour retrospective (maybe? I'm kind of making this up) followed by a two hour season premiere chock full of cheerleaders, Milo Ventimiglia, electricity, brain thievery, time travel, adorable accents and the Man With the Horn Rimmed Glasses. If you've never watched heroes you seriously should start. Even if you start tonight.

Check out this shitty teaser trailer for Villains. Oh yeah and Zachary Quinto, you can steal my brain anytime.

Cock Cock Cock Cock

A girl who looks and sounds incredibly similar to Katie Holmes has made a series of pretty hilarious YouTube videos documenting Katie's "secret confessions". It's a great idea, she should keep doing this. These two are my favorite.





If you want to see a few others, there's more here. "Spit Salad" sucks but the other one is fairly entertaining.

When May I Call On You?

My favorite TV show of all time is Six Feet Under, so I was really psyched to hear that Alan Ball had created a new series about vampires (HOT). It's actually in reality even hotter than I expected. The storyline is perf, the sexual tension between Anna Paquin and Steven Moyer is through the roof and it is just really an ultra sexy show. I can't wait to watch every second of this and now I really want to make out with a vampire.

Ummmmmmmmmm

UMMMM. What the FUCK. Okay seriously, Marc Jacobs. I love you more than any man for real. You can do no wrong in my heart and I will continue to throw all my money at you. But you cannot EVER wear a fucking skirt again. Especially one that looks like you made it out of Cindy McCain's rejected campaign outfits and a bath towel. Jesus Christ its too early for this shit.

I Can't Keep My Cool

New Kanye West song, Love Lockdown. I thought there would be VMA footage of this but apparently no only this shitty like fucking montage videos but whatever. I don't really know how I feel about this song but I like the idea of having my love locked down so its good in my book I guess.

EDIT: That video got taken down and I found a real VMA one. I also decided I really like it. That is all.

DPLV

Last night I saw the most ew commerical ever. It was for Lincoln, some new stupid Lincoln car that probably has like crazy cool navigation/music/voice activation features and shit but you know what its still a Lincoln. And for some reason they really thought it would be appropriate to use some semi remix of Technologic as the accompanying music. Come on man. I know it's like the worst Daft Punk song ever but it's still above a Lincoln commercial.

In other news, I haaaven't been able to ever stop listening to Daft Punk's Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2008 runway mix. My two favorite things ever? Hello? If you are an awesome musician you should be required to do a runway mix.



Justice also did one for Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2009. It doesn't even touch Daft, but did you expect it to?

You May Know Me By My Government Name

What does it mean when P. Diddy knows more about running the country than John McCain? VOTE OR DIE BITCHEZ

Hungry?

I really love themed everything, and these restaurants seem like they would be soooo fun to eat at!


Cannibalistic Sushi. Tokyo, Japan. An edible body is wheeled out on a gurney that diners can operate on and eat the organs.


Pitch-Black Restaurant. Bejing, China. Diners eat in complete darkness and wait staff wear night vision goggles. Rock of Love anyone?


Eternity. Truskavets, Ukraine. A death-themed restaurant shaped like a coffin with no windows.


Vampire Club. Tokyo, Japan. Painted blood red with red cocktails served in martini glasses.


Robot-Staffed Restaurant. Nuremberg, Germany. Automated service and food delivery. Apparently closed shortly after opening.


Anyone want to take a trip?

Open Letter to Chuck Bass

Dear Ed Westwick,
I have never seen Gossip Girl and I probably never will. I honestly don't really care. But I have been thinking for a while and there is something I need to get off my chest. I thinnnnk I am in love with you. I love that you say "baby" at least 4 times in every interview. I love that you wear really retarded clothing and look really fine in them. I love your barely buttoned shirt and your hairy stomach. I love that you are the singer in a grungy rock band and nobody even cares about them. Or at least I don't, so, you know, nobody cares. Anyway, you are really really really hot so lets get together. I'll meet you at the Waverly.
Love, Mandi

I Beg Your Pardon

I saw this video a while ago but Phill just sent it to me again and it is seriously really awesome. This song is made 90% from sound bites taken from Alice in Wonderland (like my favorite movie obvi). The video is just cuteness.

Please Don't Stay In Touch

Man, isn't it ~so~ annoying when other people's "boyfriends" won't stop fucking stalking you?

Perf Birf

Yay, my birthday was yesterday and awesome and I have great friends who I am very very thankful for so thank you to everyone who did nice things for me and/or wished me a happy birthday.

More importantly- why did nobody ever know that the two prettiest princesses in the land are friends/lovers? I don't know whats going on this photo besides Lo looking like the shit faced drug addict she was/is and Hayden looking like she's 12 years old but who cares because its everything good in life.

Still Trying To Do It Right

Great great great cover. I don't even have anything witty to say about this except for, "Do me Colin." And that's not even witty at all.

Go USA

So.. let's just forget about the fact that he has more Olympic golds than any other athlete, he's broken like 50 world records and is about to win what like 8 golds in one competition. Michael Phelps rules for something totally different: his response to finding out that the Chinese gold medals were 99% lead.

"I am very, very concerned about my extensive contact with gold medals," Mr. Phelps told reporters. "But what am I supposed to do? Stop being so awesome?"

CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP MICHAEL. Don't forget it.

Luv Ya New York

First of all, I love that shirt. I saw some guy standing outside my work a few months ago and it made me giggle. Second of all, it brings up an important thought that goes through my head every morning. The streets of NYC are littered with people trying to sell I <3 NY shirts, various New York City shirts and the ever-popular New York Fuckin' City shirt. If you're not from the city (and even if you are) I could image the appeal of having an I <3 NY shirt and I'd be lying if I said there probably wasn't one in my room somewhere. But the real problem is, why are so many people walking around the city WEARING them? Do you go into the store, buy it, run into a Starbucks and get changed? Was there some part of you that thought it would make you look cool or native? Just in case you were misguided- its not cool. Stop. It's like wearing a shirt that says "I'm From Ohio Or Some Other State You Don't Care About". Jesus christ people.

Fair Enough

"When it comes to men, don't pay attention to a word they say, but pay attention to absolutely everything they do".

THROWIN IT BACK!

That's Hot

I love Paris Hilton. I love Paris Hilton. I love Paris Hilton. I love Paris Hilton. I love Paris Hilton. I love Paris Hilton. And I hate you.

Nippley

My birthday is in two weeks and I WANT A LION. If this video does not move you to tears then just kill yourself now cause you suck at life and I hate you.




Also just because its Monday, here's Eva Mendes' new CK ad that's been banned because of a "nipple slip". Seriously this country needs to give it up because we are the absolute worst. Eva is hot. KY, BYE.

XXX Games

"How many youtube views do you think we'll have by the morning? Two million." I have never watched the X Games. I don't really care about extreme sports (or any sports) and as many people know I have a special place in the darkest part of my heart for skateboarding. Fuck that shit. Anyway, I watched the X Games Big Air competition last night and I fucking am glad I did. Big Air is a 62-foot-high, 293-foot-long mega fucking ramp. It is the hugest, steepest thing I have ever seen in my life. Danny Way is a big name is skateboarding and on his second run clipped his shins on the top of the TWENTY SEVEN FOOT HIGH quarterpipe. "The second most gnarly bail" according to the X Games fags. It's seriously brutal. After this out of control fall he decided he was going to continue taking the last three runs. I figured we were about to watch him die. Sike. He limped back up to the top of the ramp and did the EXACT SAME TRICKS and landed that shit like it was nbd.


After this insanity, he took his fourth run, slammed his head into some shit, obvi still decided he was going to take his final run, fucked that ramp like he'd been locked up for 10-15 and takes first place with 94.00. UNTIL. Bob Fucking Burnquist, the last and final competitor, decided ehh whatever I'm just doing to do the sickest trick anyone has ever done at the X Games, backwards.


He took the gold with a score of 96.00 which is the highest score ever received thus far. It sucks to be Danny Way.

Just for shits and giggles, here's this years bronze medal winner Jake Brown (or as the announcers called him the "bridesmaid") taking the most serious bail ever in the history of bails at last year's games.

I Googled Murder

Lost. And not the show.

DHARM-uh?

I kind of wish I got to go to ComicCon this year mostly to see Paris Hilton's panel for Repo! The Genetic Opera. But then I always forget that HEY LOST DOES SHIT THERE TOO. Here's some stupid fat kid's video of my favorite DHARMA man.

I Love You Claire Bear

Hayden Panettiere dropped her video for her new single "Wake Up Call" today. Bitch looks skankier than Aubrey O'Day and that's saying something. The song sounds like a cheap rip off of "Stars are Blind". Don't go there Hayden. Hiltons know best. Anyway this song blows serious dick but I listened to it about 23094823 times today for no reason, so if you want to watch Hayden wriggle into her panties click below.

I'm Ill

I don't wear it cause Pharrell I wear it cause I'm forreal.

Enjoyable Music Videos

For your enjoyment. I'm feeling these songs right now, esp the Little Jackie one. Maybe you will too.

NJ Pride

Ahh! I am absolutely obsessed with this Maya Brenner New Jersey necklace I found at Couture Candy. She makes a couple other states too (not too many) but obviously this is the best one. I kind of need it right now.

I Want Stuuuuff

The beginning of summer means sales which is the best ever so today I went shopping at French Connection and got a ton of really cute things for super cheap. If you live near a store you should definitely check it out, but the website is annoying and never has half the clothes they sell. More pressing though are the two Chanel items that I cannot find:


Rihanna's sunglasses and


La Lohan's tank.

Has anyone seen either of these in reality or know what their style names are?

Breaking News

ZOMG!!! Breaking news story! The beautiful earthly goddess known as Lindsay Lohan was photographed yesterday on her birthday wearing the Michael Kors leather zip-front sandals I bought like two weeks ago. We're totes soulmates. SamRon better watch her back.

You're Welcome

If you happened to see I Am Legend on IMAX (I think) then you may have been lucky enough to see the first 6 minutes or so of The Dark Knight on the super big screen. I didn't, so I never saw it. Don't worry though because it's been leaked onto the internet and found its way here for your enjoyment. Even if you already saw it you should probably watch it again because its sick as hell and makes me want to kiss Heath Ledger's corpse. Too soon?

Happy Birthday Lilo!

Today is the day that we pay recognition to God for blessing this planet with one of the finest creatures its ever known, Lindsay Lohan. She's only 22 today but she's already done more drugs than most functioning people do in their lifetime and that my friends is an accomplishment. Let's take a look back at Lindsay's glory days..

Here's La Lohan rockin' out with her alcohol monitoring bracelet.

Here she is getting stabbed in the boob by Vanessa Minnillo. That skank needs to recognize.

Beautiful princess.

Awesomerexia! No coke bloat here. Way to be.

Happy birthday Lindsay. We are not worthy.

Call Me When You Have The Courage

These messages have been all over the gossip blogs so its not really knew but this is just too awesome. Apparently this guy approached a woman in the street and she gave him her business card and these are the messages he left on her machine. I could only hope that I end up with a guy as amazing as this. It's just so amazing. And sweet. I wish I could just meet this guy so I could punch him in the fucking face. The video montage going on in the background might be the best part.

This Is Bat Country

Gonzo: The Life and Works of Hunter S. Thompson (or something like that I don't know if that's the exact title and I don't feel like looking it up) comes out July 4 and I think it would be really patriotic to take some LSD and go see it. Plus its narrated by J. Depp (obvi) AND features my hunky boss Jann Wenner who can smell a cinnabon from a mile away and will wish you a happy birthday if you let him have one. True story!

Honey, You Should Know

I just bought tickets to see Coldplay at the Izod Center on October 27. I really wanted to see them this summer at Wachovia Spectrum but the seats were twice as expensive and twice as shitty. I just wish I was seeing them this summer because I love summer shows and also because I want it now. Whatever though I don't even care because I seriously just love Coldplay so much and they make me cry. Also I really can't miss the opportunity to hear Lost live.

P.S. WORST NEWS EVER:
According to the New York Post, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin told an audience at London's Opera House that he'll no longer perform 'Green Eyes' because it's not about Gwyneth Paltrow. "The reason we don't play it is it's not about the right person," Martin told the audience the other day. "It's like an old pair of trousers, that song. It doesn't fit."

Fuck you Chris Martin. Can you just please play it one time for me?

Hey Y'All

I think I know where I'm going on my next vacation...

Cracko Does Jacko

I don't have any idea when this video was from and I don't really care. I would imagine its not all that recent since I'm pretty sure Amy Winehouse is barely even capable of standing upright nowadays let alone anything, but here's a duet she did with Charlotte Church of Michael Jackson's Beat It. It's every bit as awful as you can imagine. It's like Wino doesn't even know what words are. So fucking tragic. Get off the crack wagon!

Volume One

In the downtime of waiting for our favorite shows to come back on TV my friends and I started watching Heroes at my request (they'd already seen both seasons but I insisted we should rewatch). Television and I have a strange relationship. If I don't watch something when it airs, and then people tell me that it's really really good, I all of a sudden NEVER want to watch that show. I was that way with LOST too and look how that turned out. Anyway more importantly I have opened my heart to Heroes and need to watch both seasons before September when Volume Three premieres.

Last night we finished Volume One. Heroes is very similar to LOST in its storyline sense where all the characters, though introduced separately and having no knowledge of it, are actually all interconnected to each other and in that same way makes it difficult to determine who is "good" and who is "bad". Heroes, however, actually does a much better job of blurring that line. The characters are all incredibly likable. Their plights are something I could totally buy into from every angle. Just when you think you really hate someone, or when you've finally figured out that they're a villain, they show you a side of that character that completely alters your perception of them. The only character I really hated was Sylar, and they even managed to show a side of him that (almost) made me compassionate.

Overall a really great story line. Totes excited to start Volume Two!

Do Not Want

It's the original LOLcats. I don't even know what this shirt means and it's not even that funny but I don't even know why there would be clothing that has anything to do with Delaware in Japan. Anyway check out the site, there are way funnier things on there.

Neiighhh

I love seahorses, and I love Betsey Johnson so I really need to have this bracelet.

She has a whole really cute nautical themed set of jewelry like clam shell necklaces and sand dollars and all that fun stuff. There's also some really interesting Navajo jewelry like this snake necklace (also a must-have, I LOVE snakes):

Pretty much some cute and eccentric summer-themed accessories to get you in the mood for the beach and scorching summer temperatures. Totes into it!

Where Are They Now?

One of the things that bothers me about Project Runway is that pretty much after the show is over you never hear anything about the winners actually accomplishing anything. Christian gets a little bit more press because of his sassy attitude and since Posh loves him, but even successful contestants you don't hear much about. Jeffrey sells his clothes at major LA boutiques, Austin is a creative director for a bridal line and one time I ran into that hunky Spartan Kevin in the streets after work. But the real question is, what ever happened to Jay McCarroll?

Today I was shopping on Fred Flare when I found this.


It's the Jay McCarroll bowling bag. I don't know about this. It's $60 and it kind of looks like crap. Jay is by far my favorite PR winner and I really felt like he had the ability to take his talent far. His creations were all beautiful, quirky and totally wearable. This bag- not so much.

I tried to see if the site was selling any other of his designs but it seems like just a fluke being the only McCarroll item sold there. Nobody else seems to carry any of this stuff either. I looked to see if he had any kind of site with his designs and found out something interesting - Jay turned down the $100,000 prize that Project Runway offers because it meant 10% of his brand would be forever owned by the Weinstein Company. That would explain why he's done nothing of significance selling shit looking bags on Fred Flare I guess.

Freaks And Geeks

Cosplay and all of its variable forms is a bizarre but interesting thing. They're kind of like a car crash. You feel guilty for wanting to watch people put on this freak show but you can't look away either. I had to actually do some research to find out where this clip was taken from, and apparently it was at "Anime Central 2008". I didn't really realize that Silent Hill was considered anime but apparently it was made into a manga or some shit. Who really cares. More importantly, someone (or two people actually) decided to dress up as Siam from Silent Hill.



I think we all know who the real star of this video is- Morrigan!!! Holy shit I had completely forgot about Darkstalkers until this moment right now. Morrigan is the shit though. That girl is the shit. I want to hang out with her. I'd even dress up like Felicia!

Just for reference, here's a drawing of what Siam really looks like:



They actually did a pretty sick job. Thanks to Sean for passing this along.

I Used To Rule The World

I love Coldplay. I really, really do. The first time that I saw the video for "Yellow" will forever stand out in my mind. Parachutes is definitely in my top 10 albums. So many of their songs have serious emotional significance to me that it can bring me to tears. Obviously I am really excited about the release of Viva La Vida, but I was even more excited because the few songs I have heard have just really sounded like they are getting back to the roots of Coldplay and away from the XY shit (not that it wasn't good- just not Coldplay good). Not only are they great recording artists but they are amazing live and I can't wait for them to book their US tour. At the MTV Movie Awards Sunday they played the title track live for the very first time. Enjoy:

Answers?

Tonight is both a very exciting and very sad night for us because it is the two-hour second half of the LOST season 4 finale. Two hours of straight Lost is amazing, not to mention the fact that we are supposed to get some serious answers this time. Supposedly. However, this means many many months of no Lost, which means I'm going to spend a ton of money on the DVDs and watch them over and over for no reason until I go to the mental hospital per Hugo Reyes. Some important things that we have been told we will find out tonight:

1. WHO IS IN THE GODDAMN COFFIN

2. WHY IS KATE RAISING AARON
3. WHY ARE THEY LYING ABOUT THE CRASH
4. WHAT IS THE FROZEN DONKEY WHEEL - obvi we will find this out since it refers to the last scene.

If I do not find out the answers to all of these things and more, I am going to be very very disappointed yet still definitely continue to watch the show and talk about how cool and amazing it is. Even so. Stop playing games with my heart!

Here's a close-up of the newspaper clipping Jack holds while he goes to visit the coffin.

From what I can read, they are talking about a man, the body was found in a downtown loft shortly after 4am, and he was either found or originally from New York. I also see the word "loud" but not sure what it's referring to. Any thoughts on what else is written there or who it might be? Discuss.

Mmm, Exhausty

Stumbled across this today and found it too bizarre not to share. How do you even get started doing something like this? Do you just wake up one day and say "Hmm, I think I'd like to fuck a car today"? I mean seriously what the fuck.



Happy Memorial weekend.

No Regrets?

So if you don't know yet that my favorite thing in the world is bad tattoos, prepare yourself because I have just stumbled across the greatest thing ever and as I'm typing this I'm really just wishing I was running to Barnes and Noble to buy it right now instead. It's a book called "No Regrets" and it features some of the best and baddest tattoos out there.



Other gems include Bob Barker, bald Britney Spears, the Snakes on a Plane emblem (title included) and unicorns fucking each other and smoking cigarettes. Click here to read a little piece that Radar did and check out a few photos.

Why So Serious-ly Gay?

Even though I am really scared of rollercoasters (only because I'm scared they will make me throw up), I also really really love rollercoasters. It took Marlee about 25 minutes of convincing plus phone calls to people who had already been on the ride plus her having to deal with me freaking out for the entire line to get me to go on Kingda Ka, but once it was said and done I really loved it. I was really really excited to hear that they were coming out with Dark Knight rollercoaster at Great Adventure this summer because even though they terrify me, rollercoasters are still really awesome.

When it was announced that DK was going to be a Wild Mouse coaster, I was immediately a little disappointed. The most thrilling thing about this kind of coaster is unexpected twists and turns, which I guess I could imagine might be scary in the dark with the Joker and all that other Batman shit. Unfortunately, the promo video that Six Flags released for the ride makes it seem just about as dull as humanly possible.



Has anyone been on this ride? Is it as horribly unentertaining as it looks? I'm hoping that maybe this is just a bad representation of the ride but realistically it probably isn't.

And just for good measure: Kingda Ka in all his glory.

Not a Botanical Research Unit

It's Losturday, so hurry up and get orientated with the DHARMA Station 6 aka the Orchid. Hopefully this station will get some serious play in tonight's episode, since it seems Keamy is headed there to stop Ben from leaving the island (assuming the Orchid is a time-travel station). Supposedly we also get to see our O6 getting off The Island and maybe the beginnings of the sexual John Locke learning to move it. It's only part one of the finale tonight so who knows what kind of answers we'll really be getting.

Ella, Ella

I think it's safe to say that I'm a Maroon 5 fan. I was really into "Songs About Jane" circa junior year of high school. When I had first heard the first single off their newer album ("It Won't Be Soon Before Long"), I was really skeptical. I ended up seeing a video for a different single many months later and decided to get the album. I was really surprised and impressed by it. "If I Never See Your Face Again" has been one of my favorite songs since initially hearing the album. I also really really love Rihanna, so you can imagine the excitement I felt when I found out that they had teamed up to re-record "If I Never..". Check out the video below, it's ella-tastic.

Mmm... Phones

Sidekick fans may or may not have already seen this, but for those who haven't, here's the first screenshot (supposedly) from the Sidekick Gekko/Aspen that is/are supposedly being released this July. I'm a little skeptical on the idea of them releasing two more SKs just a few months after the LX and Slide came out but this may have something to do with the 3G network that just was launched in NYC last Monday. Seems to me that this is the "gekko" model. I hope that the Aspen is actually a completely separate phone because it seems likely that it could be a white SK. And we all know how I feel about white electronic devices. Plus my 3 is hanging on by a thread and I'm just itching to throw a couple hundred bucks away on something new and unnecessary.

Only Fools Are Enslaved By Time and Space

Alright it's been about two weeks since I posted a LOST video and in anticipation of tonight being a Ben and Locke/Des and Sayid episode, here's an extra creepy clip of the brainwashing video played backwards. (Not sure what that has to do with tonight's show but.. whatever.) Check out what DHARMA really wants you to believe..



I've also decided to give LOST it's own tag because, come on. It deserves it.

The Dawn is Coming

Since my other trailer got taken down.. here's the real deal.


New Dark Knight trailer in HD.

Heath Ledger is killin' it, literally and figurately.
Too soon?

Me-ow

Two things in life that I really love: cats and big huge pieces of jewelry. Apparently I am not the only one, so Cartier made one of the most phenomenal rings I've ever seen, aka a giant gold panther ring.


It's eyes are even peridot (my birthstone). To say I need it would be an understatement, so if anyone has a spare $8,225 and wants to really make my day.. I'm waiting.
