Michael Jackson – “This is NOT It”!

October 13th, 2009 · Comments

It’s no wonder that, Michael aside, the Jackson family are a bunch of no-hope, weird-ass wastrels. And by excluding le King du Freak himself from the equation, I hope you’re catching my drift. These guys have no fucking clue.
Ever since the Peter Pan of Pop departed for the giant NAMBLA symposium in the [...]

Too beautiful. Too romantic. There are some great shots of the dust cloud that hit Sydney this morning here, here and here.

Sarah Palin’s closet

September 2nd, 2008 · Comments

In a half-assed bid to woo undecided Clintonites, John McCain has selected Alaskan governor, anti-abortionist and gun-lovin’ Sarah Palin to be his running-mate for the upcoming POTUS election. And should McCain go on to win, Palin will once again be the runner-up in a major political contest.

RIP Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes

August 11th, 2008 · Comments

Double-header this weekend: Charlie’s Angels 2’s Bosley (left) and South Park’s Chef(right) kicked it on Saturday and Sunday respectively, Mac from pneumonia (having previously been diagnosed with sarcoidosis, a disease that affects the immune system) and Hayes from a suspected heart attack.
Coincidently, both co-star in the upcoming movie Soul Men, which I’d never [...]

Paris for President

August 7th, 2008 · Comments

After getting indirectly dissed by John McCain in one of his campaign commercials, Paris has hit back with a pitch of her own.
