| Fan Fiction: Amber Portwood and Markai Durham Attend Weekly Yoga Class Posted: 18 Nov 2010 10:59 AM PST
The Teen Mom star felt herself getting healthier every day: physically, mentally, and spiritually. She also didn’t mind watching the cute butt of her instructor as he helped the class opened their chakras. Amber knew one chakra she wanted to open for this yogi. Suddenly, a voice pierced through the air: “You Know What Helps With Being Angry Even More Than Yoga? Getting Pregnant On Television.” “Oh no,” thought Amber, “It’s Markai Durham, the recent star of 16 and Pregnant, and my mortal enemy.” Every since Markai had appeared on the MTV show and hit her own boyfriend, James, Amber had felt her own star fading. Paparazzi from TMZ and Radar weren’t camping outside of her Indiana home, and Dr. Drew wasn’t returning her phone calls anymore about appearing on his new anger management show. Markai set her mat down next to Amber and grinned, “Hey Amber, What’s Up? I Heard You Were In This Class.” “Shh!” hushed Amber, trying to focus her inner eye on a peaceful scene, like a burbling brook or a tanning salon. “Stop yelling in capital letters. Why do you even do that?” “No, I Totally Get It. Yoga Totally Comes From An Emotional And Touching Place, Much Like My Reasons For Hitting My Boyfriend, Which Are Not At All Like Your Reasons, Amber.” Markai switched positions and faced Mecca, “Life Is Not All Honey And Roses, You Know.” Amber gritted her teeth, feeling the weeks of stress-free living melting away before her eyes like ice-cream that has fallen on a pavement that you still consider eating, maybe, because what are you, made of money? For the first time all month, she had a strong desire to lash out, grab za'karia’s mom’s hair, and pull it out in chunks. But she didn’t. She was a new woman, one who did not engage in violence, one who found peace in the calming downward dog position, one who…. “Aw fuck it,” thought Amber, and started jabbing Markai with quick punches she had learned in her fancy boxing class. Markai grabbed Amber’s yoga leotard (gross) and started choking her. Quickly, the other students moved out of the way as the two reality stars started cat-fighting in the studio. It didn’t take long before the cameras showed up and started snapping pics. Amber knew what tomorrow’s headline would read: “Teen Mom and 16 and Pregnant Star Go Nuts In Yoga Studio!” She smiled to herself even as she felt Markai’s nails claw into her shoulder, drawing first blood. She was back on top. Post from: Crushable Fan Fiction: Amber Portwood and Markai Durham Attend Weekly Yoga Class  |
| More On Willow Palin's Horrible Facebook Homophobia Posted: 18 Nov 2010 10:49 AM PST
The Inter-quarrell began when one of the Palin kids’ Facebook friends updated his status to express his opinion that Sarah Palin’s Alaska “is failing so hard right now.” Bristol Palin responded immediately, and little sis Willow jumped in soon after. Willow used the words “faggot” and “gay” in the pejorative to attack kids who disparaged against her family’s TV efforts (Dancing with the Stars included). She also called one kid, named Matt “effin fat as hell,” to which he responded: “& hello nice to meet you too Willow, I have Crones (sic) disease and am steroids for my stomach causing me to gain weight. I take them twice a day to stay alive, I know I’m not the skinniest person alive, but you started the shit.” Nice work! The body snarking and homophobia is awfully hypocritical coming from a family who has gone on the P.C. record with their dislike of the term “retarded.” We suppose “faggot” doesn’t quite make the cut of things that offend the Palins, though. So far the only member of the family to address the controversy has been Bristol, who said via her own Facebook page: "Willow and I shouldn't have reacted to negative comments about our family. We apologize.” That’s a pretty far cry from an “It Gets Better” video, but then again, Bristol is awfully busy with lindy hop rehearsals, so who are we to judge. Images of the entire exchange are available at the Huffington Post. Post from: Crushable More On Willow Palin's Horrible Facebook Homophobia  |
| Video: Four Loko Gets An Undeserved Memorial Posted: 18 Nov 2010 09:51 AM PST Despite the protests of some hopped-up commenters, we were not sad to see Four Loko go to the great energy drink pool in the sky. That stuff was dangerous! Still, in its brief existence it caused a lot of commotion, controversy, and some hilarious videos by its fans. Here’s one Four Loko “memorial song,” which sounds creepily like Sting’s “I’ll Be Watching You.” Which is already creepy. Post from: Crushable Video: Four Loko Gets An Undeserved Memorial  |

| The 10 Best Quotes from 16 And Pregnant's Markai Durham Posted: 18 Nov 2010 09:57 AM PST
*Things you should know: Markai likes to start every word with a capital letter when she types. I have no idea what this creative capitalization is about, but thought it best to retain her original typing stylez. 1. It’s not all honey and roses, baby. During an interview with Radar, Markai explained what advice she would give to potential teen moms:
To anyone who thinks that teen pregnancy is all honey and roses: woah. Use a condom. To everyone else: please say this. All the time. 2. Markai and her friends had a pact to lose their virginity on the same night. Wow. Someone on Formspring (now deleted) asked Markai if James was her first:
3. Markai thinks her domestic violence scenes aren’t as bad as Amber Portwood’s The fight between Markai and James made it into the trailer for this season’s 16 and Pregnant. And brought MTV a lot of flack. But Markai thinks her slapping was justified:
4. On her bisexuality From Formspring: Are you still bi; and how is the baby doing?
When watching Markai’s episode of 16 And Pregnant, you’ll notice during her birthing scene that she has a massive inner thigh tattoo. But the reality of Markai’s ink goes so, so much further. From Formspring:

To be fair, if anyone shouldn’t have to stretch his acting chops that far to become a Neil Labute character, it’s Dane Cook. (New York Times) Post from: Crushable  |

“…and breathe out,” Amber Portwood opened her eyes and looked at her yoga instructor. She had finally found her chi centered, after hours of practicing her meditation technique. After just several sessions in the hatha yoga studio, she no longer wanted to hit her boyfriend Gary Shirley in the face so badly. At least, she felt less of a desire to do so in front of her baby daughter Leah, which was a good start. Now whenever she felt an attack of “the angries” coming on, Amber practiced her pranayama, counted to 10, and then told Gary to wait for her down in her newly-converted basement/punching room.
Yesterday we mentioned the controversy that befell 16-year-old Willow Palin after she posted homophobic remarks on a Facebook thread about her mom’s new TLC show. The story’s been picking up steam in the national media, partly because of the lack of an official statement or apology from any of the Palins.
It’s baaaack! After a long stint out of the public eye, this greasy, saucy, mass-produced mess is once again being consumed despite its entire lack of nutritional value. Why do we keep getting excited to be reminded about it’s existence on Twitter, despite the fact that it gets cloying two seconds after its comeback, leaving you sick to your stomach and with a really bad after-taste. We are talking, of course, about the return of
