| Event Report: Greyson Chance Is The Tori Amos Of Pre-Teen Idols Posted: 07 Feb 2011 11:13 AM PST
Greyson was soooo good, you guys! It’s pretty much a wonder of the world that such a beautiful, layed voice comes out of this tiny little 13-year-old kid. Singing live, he conjured a cut-and-paste job of Justin Bieber, Tori Amos and a couple follicles from Freddie Mercury’s mustache. Drew and I kept leaning over and squealing to one another, which probably didn’t help our “we’re creepy for being here” issue. After banging out the song that started it all, Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi,” Greyson debuted a new one called “Unfriend You,” which was about love in the digital age or or breakfast cereal or video games or something. Check it out for yourself: We stayed to see most of Miranda, who wore a sparkly disco ball of a skirt and was generally adorable. She had a backup band comprised of five hot dudes, which made us wonder: What’s the point of being in a touring rock band if you know you’re not going to sleep with any of the groupies? Sigh. Perhaps we’ve misplaced our empathy. After doing a bunch of originals, Miranda and co. played a medley of The Black Eyed Peas “I Got a Feeling” and La Roux’s “Bulletproof.” She really got the crowd on its feet!, we think, or maybe the kids all just had to pee. We bailed before the end of Miranda’s set to beat the sugar-addled crowd, and as we left the theater we were each handed a sample-sized bottle of acne wash — which we intend to keep somewhere safe until we hit puperty and begin sending Greyson Chance love letters on Wizards of Waverly Place stationary.

| Video Gallery: The Best Of Keyboard Dogs Posted: 07 Feb 2011 10:07 AM PST Keyboard Cat is dead, long live Keyboard Cat! And while many successors may try to take his place, we think it’s time for a change in the system. Keyboard dogs, anyone?

| Video: Watch This New Pornographers Comedy Spectacular Now! Posted: 07 Feb 2011 10:21 AM PST We like comedy and we like The New Pornographers, so we looove this new video from director Tom Scharpling. It’s got folks like John Hodgman, Donald Glover, Julie Klausner (as NP singer Neko Case, you guys!), and Todd Barry — plus Wyatt Cenac from The Daily Show does cocaine off a slice off pizza (er, that can’t be good for him). We are such big fans of this, we’d watch it intravenously if we could. Post from: Crushable Video: Watch This New Pornographers Comedy Spectacular Now! |
| Gleek Of The Week: Superbowl Thriller Posted: 07 Feb 2011 08:55 AM PST
This week’s episode, that’s who/what! This week’s episode, The Sue Sylvester Shuffle, focused on the combination of manly sports and womanly love of all things Michael Jackson/Katy Perry/Destiny’s Child, and from its opening number was designed to keep those post-Super Bowl viewers interested in a show about singing and gay kids. Did it work?
Gleek of The WeekDave Karofsky As far as three-dimensional characters go on this show, football player/homophobe/possible homosexual Dave Karofsky has pretty much won this whole season. He’s the bully that sent Kurt running to Dalton Academy, but this week’s episode also showed us a softer, more sensitive 200-pound gorilla. One that was very good at zombie dances. So even though Karofsky may never be a permanent part of Glee club, he redeemed himself enough to be this week’s Gleek of the Week. Post from: Crushable Gleek Of The Week: Superbowl Thriller |
| Celebrity Lookalikes: Jesse Eisenberg Is Michael Cera Posted: 07 Feb 2011 08:41 AM PST
Close your eyes for a sec, we’re going to paint you a picture. Imagine an indie actor: tall, thin, with curly hair, super quirky, and a little nervous seeming. So, do you see Jesse Eisenberg or Michael Cera? Or maybe some super-powered amalgomation of the two? In a profile in The Independent, Jesse lamented the fact that he’s often confused for Michael. (“It’s annoying. I don’t like getting recognized as other people.”) What a hilarious problem to have, a celebrity being mistaken for a different celebrity! Take a look at out gallery to see how similar the two fellas really are. Post from: Crushable Celebrity Lookalikes: Jesse Eisenberg Is Michael Cera |

Meet Max Page. My new crush. Vader isn’t Max’s first acting role. He’s actually been in a few commercials (and on The Young and The Restless?). But there’s at least one thing that propels him from falling into that over-privileged child star category: Max has a congenital heart defect and wears a pace maker. Which is so sad. But also uplifting. And makes him even more adorable. Check him out on Today here:

OMG, OMG, OMG! Over the weekend, Crushable Deputy Editor Drew and I saw the Miranda Cosgrove show at NYC’s Beacon Theater. We went for two reasons: To ask iCarly if she wants to be our intern and to see sugar-voiced wunderkind Greyson Chance, Miranda’s opener and our favorite YouTube sensation. Immediately upon arrival, Drew and I realized we were the only people in the audience between the ages of 12 and 40 — how creepy! In fact, the guy next to us (accompanied by his 10-year-old daughter) leaned over and was like “Um, aren’t you guys a little old to be here?” We explained the whole “we have a blog thing,” and then he yelled at us because we weren’t familiar with the name of Madonna’s publicist. Argh, we just can’t win!
Tina Fey is kind of the best. Was anyone not under that assumption? We guess there are some high-brow, hoity-toity types that read The New Yorker and don’t own a TV who may not know how great Tina is, which is why the 30 Rock star had to take to the magazine to explain why she is not having another baby. It’s 
Glee is back! With a bang too, coming in right after the Superbowl. That’s ballsy, right? We mean: Glee club and football? Who would ever think those two, disparate things would ever go together?
