From One Rush To Another: Stop Using Our Music! The Band Has Beef With The Politician!

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 12:30 PM PST

If you think you can do or say whatever you want sir, THINK AGAIN!

As previously reported, Rush Limbaugh said some pretty ignorant and insensitive statement regarding Sandra Fluke and birth control.

Now, he's getting his butt handed to him by Rush (the band) and Peter Gabriel.

During his spat against Fluke, Rush (the dude) played Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer and called the Georgetown student a "slut."

Then, when he got EXTREMELY creepy and asked to see sex tapes of Fluke and women who receive birth control through their employer, he played Rush's (the band) music.

Obvis, Rush (the band) and Peter Gabriel don't like that one bit!

Both parties have slapped Rush (the dude) with cease-and-desist letters and ordered him not to play their music.

If only there was a way to order him to stop saying crazy shiz!

Uma Thurman: Robert Pattinson Takes Himself Too Seriously

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 11:50 AM PST

Yeesh! Seems like Uma Thurman was quite the momma bear on the set of her new movie of Bel Ami.

Even though she and Robert Pattinson play lovers in the film, Uma took on a more of a mentor role to the English actor.

In a recent interview, Uma spoke about their time on set together and it turns out, R-Patz is like really, really serious.

She said:

"He's very serious. He did a huge amount of rehearsals in his own time. I think that's what you do when you're a young actor, when you take your work very seriously and want to take it to the next level.

When you've been doing this a really long time, it's hard to take it all so seriously. I said to him, 'Don't get too upset about it, because, before you know it, Twilight will just be an old film that made you lucky enough to get another job. But when you're in that position and you're young, it's hard to hear through the noise."

Ha! Only Uma would call Twilight some "old film." At least it's better than what she originally called the franchise: " those Dracula movies"

Never change, Uma, never change...

EXCLUSIVE! Snooki Gets ROWDY With The Situation On Tomorrow's All-New Jersey Shore

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 11:40 AM PST

We want you to keep your eyes peeled in this clip. There is a moment Pauly D and Deena share that is simply PRICELESS!

Oh yeah, and Snooki and The Situation finally have it out ... with a gallon of milk.

True to form, the stars of the Jersey Shore are handling their problems at Seaside Heights with grace, decorum and enough profanity to make your mother pass out! Tomorrow night, things finally come to blows between Snooks and Sitch, who is STILL insisting that he hooked up with her while she was still dating Jionni.

Considering that the two are poised to get married and have a baby meatball on the way, we're pegging you as the liar, Mike. If not, Jionni is one hell of a good sport!

Check out the video (above) to see a sneak peek at Snooki and Sitch's blow out from tomorrow night's episode!

Ah! Such wonderful memories caught on film! How Snooki Snickers little one will enjoy watching these tapes when she/he is older! LOL!

Hey, Newt Gingrich: WAKE UP! Falls Asleep On Camera, Then Wakes Up In A Daze In Front Of AIPIC

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 11:10 AM PST

Oh, the rigors of seeking office! How exhausting they must be!

Well, DUH. It's not called a race for nothing! The election process is supposed to be a test of one's tenacity. Too bad Newt nailed himself in the foot yesterday by falling asleep on camera during an ABC News segment!

Not only did the future president candidate we will (most likely) soon forget snooze on screen, he obviously had no idea what was going on when he spoke in front of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).

Newt seemed to think he would be able to rely on a "panel," but the presidential candidate was actually supposed to have a substantial and informative speech prepared.

Check out the video (above) and cue to 1:05 for this embarrassing show of ignorance.. It would be HIGHlarious - if the future of our country didn't depend on people like this!

This one's going to stay with us for a while.

Are RiRi And Breezy Trying To Give Their Love One More Try With A Secret Getaway?!

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 10:40 AM PST

We kinda hope that this isn't true...

Reportedly, Rihanna is planning a secret getaway to give her ex, Chris Brown, another shot.

RiRi and Breezy have been hooking up A LOT lately, from song remixes to rumored Idol appearances, to other public outings, intentional or not.

But since RiRi's restraining order ended, rumors of some more romantic "secret meetings: have surfaced and now, it looks like they want to escape somewhere private to see if a rekindled relationship could work.

A source said the following of their plans:

Ri wants to know whether she can trust Chris again.They both still love each other, but neither is sure they can be together.

'They want a few days away, just the two of them, to put things to the test...The thing is, no one else is very keen on them being friendly again.

We'll see if the rumors are true, but we think a relationship would be toxic...

For both of them.

Learn from the past. Walk away while there is still time. DON'T DO THIS.
