Sneak Peek Of Heidi Klum’s Halloween Costume: Not As Crazy As Hoped

Posted: 28 Oct 2010 06:42 AM PDT

Stylist has a sneak peek of noted Halloween enthusiast Heidi Klum’s costume this year:

She’s a sexy Iron Man? I realize we don’t have the full effect yet, but come on, Hedi Klum. Over the years you’ve raised the Crazy-Amazing (Cramazing) Costume Bar to such levels that I expect something more along these lines:


Or this:

And let’s HOPE you can incorporate your husband and co-Halloween enthusiast, Seal, into this year’s costume, like when you guys were The Garden of Eden:

THIS is the quality of work we are expecting. At the very least, attach a few more arms.

“X Factor: Italy” Winner Is Hot, Hilarious, And Terrible

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 02:30 PM PDT

America has been at a loss, picking up the pieces since it was announced a couple of months ago that Simon Cowell would not be returning to American Idol, but rather as a judge on another UK import called X Factor. X Factor is a show kind of like Idol, only with a lot more props and unattractive people. Anybody can make it on X Factor. The humbles. The poors. The unbreastimplanted. Susan Boyle. And the adorable and very crushable Matt Cardle.

But what you may not have realized is that America is one of the last countries to get their very own X Factor. In fact, 27 countries have already beaten us to the punch. One of those countries being Italy, a land known mainly for their pasta and mustaches.

Italy’s X Factor is the stuff that dreams are made of. Not only do the judges have really fun names to say in racist Italian accents – Mara Maionchi, Anna Tatangelo, Elio, and Enrico Ruggeri – but the contestants themselves are world’s more hilarious than ANYTHING we have to offer here in the States.

Take last year’s winner (only don’t, because we want him, at least for rom-com movie night and/or a gym buddy) Marco Mengoni. Marco is hot, humble, and most importantly, looks exactly like Sacha Baron Cohen.

Here he is singing the Michael Jackson classic “Man in the Mirror. Don’t fast forward through the opening set-up, because secretly, that is the best part. Specifically that dastardly judge:

He doesn’t speak English, does he?

Yes, the judges there jam out on old school headphones during the performances. And unlike the female judges in America and the UK, who hoist their chest up to right below their chins, the Italian women could care LESS about how they look. Check out these two ladies at the beginning of Mario’s cover of “Kiss,” who threw on their best parkas and smallpox blankets for a quick interview.

Also, Marco wears leggings:

In his cover of “Psycho Killer,” Marco took the part very seriously, dressing like an actual psychotic killer, albeit a hot one from Williamsburg. And in case that wasn’t obvious enough, there are helpful arrows on either side of him that say “Psycho” and “Killer.” Now is probably a good time to bring up the fact that he’s only “aight” as a singer… but “fantastic” as a lithe Italian.

What have we learned from these videos? Mainly, that you don’t need to speak Italian to really and truly enjoy “X Factor: Italy.” And that Marco Mengoni is our favorite not-great singer singer on Earth.

Red Shirt Guy Asks Nerdiest Question Ever

In New Nike Ad, LeBron James Asks Question He Probably Doesn’t Want You To Answer

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 12:00 PM PDT

LeBron James has a very important question for you: What should he do? Because it’s all about him.

Well, LeBron, since you asked. I have several ideas as to what you should do.

I would say you shouldn’t have made this clearly very expensive ad, a-hole.
You should give the millions of dollars you earned from this ad to charity.
Then you should find a way to erase this ad from my mind, Eternal Sunshine style.
You should PLAY BASKETBALL, which is what I thought the moral of the ad was going to be. Which, I guess with the image of him playing basketball, it sort of was. But it’s not like the ad hits you over the head with it.
You should stop asking rhetorical questions over and over.
I would basically say you should shut the eff up, you crazy self-aggrandizer and let us all move on and get over the fact that we watched your announcement special for far too long.

Next Batman Film Will Be Called “The Dark Knight Rises 2000!!!”

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 10:12 AM PDT

Christopher Nolan has kind-of-officially announced that the next film in the new Batman saga will be titled “The Dark Knight Rises”.

I’m extremely disappointed that they decided to just tack the word “Rises” onto the end of the previous title, especially after I gave them so many (effing) GOLDEN title suggestions:

Dark Knight 2: Batty Never Sleeps

2 Dark 2 Knight

Dark Knight: The Bleakquel

Chris Nolan: Darker And Knightier

Batman: Bat In The City

The Dark Knight And Robin

Dark Knight 2: Havana Knights

Bat And Baterer: When Harry Met Bruce

Batman 3-D

Let Michael Caine’s Voice Soothe You

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 10:10 AM PDT

Vanity Fair‘s latest Writers Reading Podcast features Michael Caine reading from his memoir, The Elephant to Hollywood. Unfortuantely, I can’t embed it here so you have to click on the link. But I’ve transcribed a little sample. It doesn’t give you Michael Caine’s smooth-as-velvet-working-class voice, but you get an idea. Seriously, it’ll be the most soothing 10 minutes of your life. You won’t even care that he’s a crazy name dropper. Here’s the story of how he met Sean Connery:

I’d met Sean in London back in the late 1950's at what was then called "The Bottle Party." If someone was giving a party in those days and couldn't quote afford it the invitation would be, "Bring a bottle and a bird." I was broke, so I couldn't afford to bring a bottle, so I brought two birds. And they were very beautiful girls. I walked into this party and there was Sean who seemed enormous compared with the rest of us weedy type actors. And he saw me with those two girls and I became his instant new best friend.

It’s so Alfie! In other news, Bottle and Bird parties should still totally exist and if there are any Michael Caine’s (or Sean Connery’s for that matter) out there who want to take me to one, I’m free.
