Video: 'The Office' Cast Does A Lipdub

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 11:52 AM PDT

Have you missedThe Office as much as we have? Don’t worry, Michael Scott and gang of neutrally-attired employees return to the airwaves tomorrow night. To celebrate, the cast put together a lipdub — and their effort does not disappoint. (We find the ending particularly adorable, but then again, we’ve always had a little crush on Ryan.)

Since we can’t wait until Thursday, and because it’s 5 o’clock somewhere (though not in Scranton), we’ve created The Unofficial ‘Office’ Lipdub Drinking Game:

• Every time you see a Dunder Mifflin sign, take a shot.
• For each inch Ed Helms‘ gravity-defying eyebrows lift in lipdubby excitement, take a sip.
• Wish your office got to lip-synch on camera? Bottoms up.
• Whenever you wonder just exactly what the heck song is playing here, finish your drink.

ABC is Running Out Of Bachelors – Seriously, they’re trying to sell us on Brad Womack again for the next season of The Bachelor? Doesn’t the network know by now that it has to pick from the runner-ups of The Bachelorette? (via Us Weekly)

Horse Bicycle Kit? Yes Please!

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 11:50 AM PDT

Never got that pony as a little kid? This is the next best thing. Designer Eungi Kim created a kit that turns bicycles into horses for 2010’s Seoul Cycle Design Competition. The package includes metal and wooden parts and is, according to Eungi, pretty simple to put together. (Plus, once you’ve got two made, you can breed them to have horsey bikes for life!)

Update: We just realized this looks like a Silly Band. Even better!

Elevator Musing: 'New York Is Choppy and Competitive'

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 11:35 AM PDT

Sometimes you overhear the best stuff on elevators. This is where we write about them.
After a late lunch (apparently 2 pm is late enough for all the chicken and broccoli to congeal for the day), I managed to grab an elevator riiiight before the doors slammed shut. Success! Or was it? As I got on, I noticed the rest of the carriage slowly backing away from the lady closest to the buttons. I reached over and hit my floor number.
“I would have gotten that for you!” she shrieked, while shifting around her knapsack/suitcase combo and simultaneously polishing off her glasses (that only had one arm, by the way, like a monocle) on her “I love New York” t-shirt. Wuh-oh.

“One time, I didn’t push everyone’s buttons and I got yelled at!” this lady continued to skwawk at the entire elevator while we all stood with the same glassy-eyed, tight-lipped smile, “I was like, ‘If I wanted to be an elevator operator, I’d go work at Tiffany’s!’”

“Do they still have elevator operators at Tiffany’s?” she asked, to no one in particular. The silence was deafening. I wondered if this was viral marketing for that new “From the mind of M. Night Shyamalan” movie about being stuck with the devil in an elevator. It certainly felt like hell.

“I don’t think I like it here,” the woman mumbled, again taking off her mutilated eyewear and polishing it, “New York is just too choppy and competitive.”

“Also full of crazy people,” I thought, but didn’t say out loud. We were at my floor, after all.

Video: Bret Easton Ellis' Fake CW Show Is A Joke That Takes Itself Very Seriously

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 10:57 AM PDT

When our sister site TheGloss posted this video today for All That Glitters, we were like “Ha, yeah, we get the joke…Rules of Attraction is basically Gossip Girl, but with more (less?) abortions.” But the thing is, Bret Easton Ellis would kill to have a show on the CW. He already admitted The Hills is the best thing on TV, ever. And lets not get highbrow here, his BFF Jay McInerney was already on Gossip Girl. All of Bret’s work besides American Psycho basically has to do with spoiled rich kids in LA anyway, and there usually aren’t that many more murders than you’d find in a typical Melrose Place episode. So cut the shit, BEE, you’d love for All that Glitters to be the TV version of Glamorama. Too bad Ben Stiller stole that movie concept from you ages ago. (Oh by the way, a nugget for the super fans: Kip Pardue was in both Rules of Attraction and Glamorama, so of course he’d be making an appearance in this.)

Spencer Pratt shaves his horrifying beard – We were worried we had another Joaquin Phoenix on our hands, but alas, Spencer Pratt has shaved his scraggly lion-mane facial hair. On camera, of course. (via PopEater)

Who Has a Bigger Mouth: Jason Ritter or Chord Overstreet on 'Glee'?

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 10:27 AM PDT

When Puck asked one of the new transfer students last night on Glee how many tennis balls he could fit in his mouth, the guy responded with a variation of the old Clueless joke “I’ve never tried to fit balls in my mouth. Have you?” But the thing is, between Finn’s new rival (Chord Overstreet, whose previous roles involve an episode of iCarly) and Jason Ritter on NBC’s The Event, you can’t deny that we’re having a prime-time showdown of the bass-mouth boys. Who do you think could fit more balls in their mouth?

Crushable Exclusive: Eminem and Rihanna's Viral Video For 'Love the Way You Lie'

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 09:47 AM PDT

Some artists just intrinsically “get” the Internet. They know what makes for cool viral content, and what kids will pick up and send around to all their friends through iChat and TwitterSquare or whatever. We never thought Eminem as particularly the kind of guy who would know his memes, but we guess we were wrong. As this exclusive video for the Megan Fox/Dominic Monaghan video Love the Way You Lie proves, superstars Eminem and Rihanna look good in any form.

Okay, so maybe it’s not appropriate to address issues of domestic violence with kitties. But neither is appropriate to do so with the chick from the Transformers movie and the hobbit from Lost, so….

Sad, Exhausted Models Take New Zealand

Posted: 22 Sep 2010 09:56 AM PDT


There’s something weirdly depressing about this photo of two hollow-eyed models backstage at the Nom*D fashion show in New Zealand. It’s like someone took an American Apparel ad, doused it in a Japanese horror film and let it soak in a vat of Eastern European prostitution ring. We’re reminded of this Amy Poehler quote from a recent interview in Salon:

I’m over this weird, exhausted girl. I’m over the girl that’s tired and freezing and hungry. I like bossy girls, I always have. I like people filled with life. I’m over this weird media thing with all this, like, hollow-eyed, empty, party crap.

Amen, sister. Can’t we stop fetishizing sad, impossibly young-looking women already? And hey – how come Amy didn’t make it onto Spike’s cutest feminists list?
