Finally, A Kevin Bacon Head Made Of Bacon

Posted: 30 Sep 2010 08:08 AM PDT

Much like a Bieber doll, I cannot believe this hasn’t been done before: A bust of Kevin Bacon made of bacon. It was created by artist Mike Lahue using styrofoam, bacon bits and lacquer. It was commissioned by J&D foods and it will be auctioned off on eBay, the proceeds going to the charity Ashley’s Team. Obviously, that’s great. And I love the idea. It’s just…if I may, there’s one thing that’s bothering me. If you observe the picture below, I don’t know how much this looks like the Kevin Bacon I know and love.


And the profile view:

To me, it looks more like Chris Isaak and Jay Leno had a bacon love child:


Chris Isaak is all like, “You know you want it.” And Jay Leno’s all like, “Well, duh. I’ve seen the Wicked Game video.”

And then they made love and bore a bacon head. If you want me to give your small child the birds and the bees talk, I’m available for a small fee.

Diddy’s First Day of Catholic School Outfit

Posted: 30 Sep 2010 07:10 AM PDT

Here is Diddy in a kilt:

The fact that he’s at the MTV Crashes Glasgow concert is neither here nor there. I’m sure he would wear a kilt anyway and anywhere, Marc Jacobs style. Or, more aptly, Sarah Michelle Gellar in Cruel Intentions style. But, you know, no matter how accepted the kilt may (or may not) be for non-Scottish males sporting it as a fashion statement rather than a cultural one, it’s still funny. ‘Cause it’s a man in a skirt.

Greg Giraldo Dies At 44

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 02:37 PM PDT

Wow. After being hospitalized yesterday for a reported “accidental prescription drug overdose,” comedian Greg Giraldo died today at the age of 44.

Giraldo was a Comedy Central mainstay for years, appearing in numerous standup specials and as a regular guest on Tough Crowd and various other panel shows, as well as being a frequent guest on Conan and a judge on this past season’s Last Comic Standing on NBC.

His finest work, in my (and most peoples’) opinion, came during the annual Comedy Central Celebrity Roasts, during which he routinely shined.

After the jump, check out Giraldo’s segment on the Comedy Central Roast of Flavor Flav:

12 Glee Theme Episodes We’d Like to See

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 03:04 PM PDT

The second season of Glee is back, and it promises a bevy of musical delights (and horrors), the first of which was seen this week in the show’s Britney Spears-themed episode. On the bright side, the show has added John Stamos to the roster as Miss Pillsbury’s new love interest. And Stamos looks to be hitting his hit-that peak — a regular George Clooney of the small screen. But on the dark side, we’ve got the usual complaints, namely to do with Lea Michelle’s acting ability, which is getting harder and harder to overlook despite her singing ability.

The Britney Spears themed episode was hit and miss: Lea Michelle’s “Hit Me Baby One More Time” was a horribly uncomfortable miss, but Artie’s “Stronger” routing and the “Toxic” dance number made up for it.

Not to mention the brilliant dance sequences by Brittney S. Pierce, played by former Beyonce backup dancer Heather Morris, who is easily one of the top 2 things about the show. Actual Britney’s cameos were forgettable, but yet comforting… we’re just happy the girl is alive and well.

Ed. Note: Please note that any insults thrown Glee’s way in this post are done out of love. I’ve spent $508 buying their singles on Itunes, and I do think I deserve the opportunity to share a piece of my mind.

12. Kanye West

How do you make the gayest rapper in the world (no homo) even gayer? Give him his very own hour-long theme episode on Glee! We’d tune in for the years-too-late “in” joke where a wasted Kanye grabs the mic away from a heartbroken Kurt.


11. The Worst Bands in the World

The amount of suckiness in this episode would cause a Shue-nami in Micronesia. A little Creed, a dash of Nickelback, some Juggalo action, a splash of (fill your least favorite band in here), and the campiest suckfest known to man will have just been birthed by the vagina-hole that is Fox. (Meant in a motherly, loving way.)


10. Michael McDonald

The best way to describe my participation in an hour-long Michael McDonald homage? “Yah Mo B There.” I can’t even front for more than 2 seconds… “What a Fool Believes” is 33 percent my jam.


9. Boyz II Men

A coming of age episode with Boyz II Men songz. Sure, it would involve some dabbling in white people rapping, an aural horror second only to Neurofibromatosis. On second thought, even our love for “End of the Road” and “Motown Philly” would not make up for the white rapping, scratch this, let’s move on…


8. Justin Bieber

Included solely for Google purposes. This post just got 100 percent more viral. Please, continue…


7. Cable Access Songs

If you’ve never seen the footage from the brilliant 1980′s show “Stairway to Stardom,” first of all, why are you even reading right now when you should be clicking here to watch our 10 favorite moments. Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, imagine an entire episode dedicated to this fantastic show? It would win an episode for the Gloria Huddle “Operator” moment alone.


6. Al Jolson

If you thought Mr. Schuester rapping was offensive, imagine how much fun we’d have with an hour of Mr. Schue in blackface. Believe us, this episode would still be less stomach-churning than the “Bust a Move” sequence from last season. (Truly the most offensive thing to happen to black culture in years.) (Also, wait, should we not have posted this pic? What are the rules on this kinda thing?)


5. The Beatles

Awww, Artie in a mop cut? You almost can’t even hear them butchering the all time greatest pop songs ever written.

4. Mozart

Imagine an episode where none of these people sing a single word? Bryan Adams wrote a song about it.


3. Sister Acts I, II and III

A gospel-themed show with the crew belting out the most famous gospel songs ever would truly be a heavenly gift from our divine creator. The cast’s cover of “Like a Prayer” is the closest we’ve ever gotten to gospel on Glee, and it ranks as one of their best covers from the first season. And you uh-knowwww Whoopi Goldberg is just dying to get “back in the habit” for a guest cameo. Kathy Najimy’s been waiting by the phone for this call since 1994.


2. Bjork

Kostume Kraziness!!!! Obviously, if they went through with this theme, we would want Brittney dolled up in a sweet “Dancer in the Dark” costume.


1. Celine Dion

The idea of a Celine Dion cameo on Glee is so powerful that we fear it might kill off 97 percent of the gay population. In which case, this would be a horrible idea. But even with Lea Michelle singing most of the show’s big numbers, we would literally give anything (*holds kidneys high above head*) to make this theme a reality.

Tim and Eric Revamp Their Show Open

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 01:36 PM PDT

No matter where you stand on the SNL-Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! tiny hats scandal (you could even opt out of caring at all), this is really funny:

Wow, I can’t believe Don Pardo agreed to do that. (Sarcasm). (It doesn’t even sound like Don Pardo). (It’s just that the greatest regret of my life would be to somehow get Don Pardo in trouble). (Like I have that power). (But you know what I’m saying).

Ashton Kutcher is President of Pop Culture, Your Nightmares

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 01:04 PM PDT

Well color me perpetuating something awful that is essentially just advertising but also bad jokes plus Ashton Kutcher. Color me that. Is there a Crayola crayon color that is that? Because that’s what I should be colored as. Because I’m posting this:

Yes Man #1: Oh man, Ashton, you are hilarious!
Yes Man #2: Yeah, Ashton, you’re the king!
Yes Man #3: You mean, the President!
Yes Man #4: Of Pop Culture!
Yes Man #3 and Yes Man #4 high five and chest bump
Ashton: Guys, I’m just a normal dude…who happens to be awesome looking and boning Demi Moore! And possibly someone else!
Ashton high fives down the line from Yes Man #1 to Yes Man #32
Ashton: You know who isn’t funny? Women. All women.
Yes Man #24: You got that right, Ashton!
Ashton: Where’s my f*cking money from Popchips? I not this f*cking hilarious and goddamn good-looking for f*cking free!
Yes Man #15: No way, Ashton! I’ll go get your money! Want some of my money first? God, you’re so hilarious! Did I say that?
Ashton: Yeah, you did. So you can suck my d*ck!
Beat
Ashton erupts into laughter, closely followed by Yes Man #1-Yes Man #32. After 5 minutes Ashton stops laughing. The Yes Men continue.
Ashton: SHUT THE F*CK UP!
The Yes Men continue to laugh, thinking Ashton is still joking.
Ashton takes out his gun and shoots them all. Standing amidst the carnage, he starts to laugh again.

Ashton: God, I’m f*cking funny.

Perfect Video: Weatherman Doesn’t Realize Camera Is On

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 12:10 PM PDT

Well, here’s the best clip on the internet all week.

NYC weatherman and jazz pianist Bill Evans apparently didn’t realize the camera was on him today, and it stayed on him just long enough for him to quip “Oh, hello” in a cartoony gay Bond villain voice, before promptly cutting to another (slightly more serious) story. Click the pic below to watch:

We’ll assume the quote is a reference to These Guys.

Oh local news gaffes — the internet would’ve gone out of business years ago if it weren’t for you. We’d all be on abacuses.

Hello, Bieber! Bieber Doll Forthcoming.

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 11:32 AM PDT

I didn’t realize this hadn’t happened yet. I just assumed that it had. Justin Bieber is going to be made into a doll. Not, like, transformed into one like some sort of horror movie that I’m sure exists wherein people are turned into dolls (is that a movie? If it isn’t, don’t steal that idea, it’s mine), but his likeness will be put into doll form and sold at a store near you. Now instead of just having a doll face, he’ll have a doll body to match. Here it is:

Scale of Real Bieber to Doll Bieber is 1:1. BECAUSE HE’S DOLL SIZED. (Nailed it).

The reason I thought this doll Bieber would have been put into production months ago is that he is so incredibly pervasive. Like, to the point that he’s referenced by little kids by any means possible. For example, I was tutoring yesterday (because I’m a GOOD EFFING PERSON with only a part time job) and there was this new tutor there named Justin and one of the little girls was like, “You’re name’s not Justin Bieber, is it?” And all the little kids laughed and laughed and laughed, as though they were adults at some Upper West Side cocktail party and someone had just recounted a Maureen Dowd witticism. I don’t know if I’m explaining it correctly. It’s just, Bieber! You know??

Here’s Shakira’s Stupid New Video

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 10:06 AM PDT

I’ve spent the last two hours trying to come up with a funny title for this post about Shakira’s new “Loca” video, and being the professional wordsmith that I am, I never allow myself to just say “this thing is stupid,” because that’s not creative and adds nothing to the discussion and VH1 doesn’t pay me three magic beans a week to just tell you what you already know.

Sometimes, though, there’s just nothing to say other than “This video is stupid.” Not unbelievably, insultingly stupid. Not funny-bad stupid. Not unpredictably stupid. Just regular old-fashioned completely, standardly, mundanely, stupid. Click the stupid embed below to watch the stupid video:

Animated Courtney Love Never Looked So Good

Posted: 29 Sep 2010 09:53 AM PDT

Here is an animated video (6 and a half minutes long, relax) by Michael Mouris called “The Dark Night of the Soul.” It was commissioned by Courtney Love and it’s about…Courtney Love. Or, Courtney Love: The Best F*ck In The World. You know what? It’s great. Really great. And, you know, stupid. But in the way that the fashion industry is stupid and also great. So take a six and a half minute Flavia break and watch it:

As totally self centered as this video inherently is, it is also aesthetically awesome and I love love LOVE the line, “Why can’t I be dignified like Chris Martin from Coldplay?!” That’s the EXACT thought I have every morning as I wake up in my suite in the Mercer hotel, surrounded by last night’s macaroon bender! Some power is taken away from that line, because I suspect Courtney and Chris are friends in real life so she’s only sort of “taking the piss,” but whatevs. Also, I think I learned a lesson: I would look way better in animated form. Flawless skin. Also, it’s what’s inside that something something.
