This actress insisted writers change her story line, they did and cut her character altogether. This celebrity couple's divorce is hard on the kids and this couple is having a hard time with a three-way. Looks like someone needs to be written out of that relationship.
Since everyone in America aged 17-29 smartly decided to "wait out the recession" by enrolling in college—a magical fantasy land which temporarily makes your lack of purpose in life disappear—it stands to reason that college graduation rates would also be rising, right? All those motivated young go-getters just raring to acquire skills with which to grab the world by the throat, and eat it? Right? No.
America! A land in which our most treasured popular cultural symbols are just candy coating for our other, far darker cultural symbols. Maybe Mickey Mouse is worth a shit, after all.
An ice cream shop in Ocala, Florida thought it would be a clever marketing tactic to have an employee dress up as an ice cream cone and stand out in the parking lot with a sign advertising their goods. Little did they know!
Artist Andrew Salomone has used his hacked knitting machine—an electronic little number that operates similarly to a desktop printer—to create self-portrait face masks, soundwave scarves, and other garments inspired by the Jaclyn Smith Style Collection pop culture and technology. But his piece de resistance is the recursive Bill Cosby sweater, which Salomone (rhymes with "alimony") hopes will one day adorn the real-life, sartorially splendid Bill Cosby. Such an occurrence would not only complete the sweater's pattern but also cause geomagnetic reversal. [YouTube via Buzzfeed]
Before Radiohead took the reins on tonight's Report, Stephen Colbert made sure to get in a few words about just how smitten he is with Google for its recent one-two punch of anarchy—first, by denying Rick Santorum's request to wipe his Santorum from its results page, and then by sending feisty chairman Eric Schmidt into a Senate panel investigating allegations the company practiced search discrimination against certain competitors.
Dick Cheney's historical revision, In My Time: A Personal and Political Memoir, was the latest selection at an author lecture series in Vancouver on Monday. In honor of this rare visit from Bush's bionic henchman, a large crowd of protesters gathered outside the Vancouver Club. They grew increasingly unruly as the day went on (watch the protest grow in the above video), shouting down and blocking the entrance to guests who'd paid $500 for the privilege of hearing Cheney speak.
Rock n' roll grave robber Steven Conard, a 39-year-old grounds worker at the Allouez Catholic Cemetery in Wisconsin, was placed under arrest on Saturday and charged with "felony theft from person or corpse." Confronted at his home, Conard had confessed to removing a Fender Telecaster from the coffin of Randall Jourdan, a beloved father and grandfather who for years told everyone he knew that his dying wish was to be buried with the "pride and joy" guitar he'd played for over 40 years.
Here's some unsettling footage of Barack Obama addressing a group of supporters at the House of Blues on L.A.'s Sunset Strip on Monday night. During the president's remarks, an unseen man approaches the stage, and proceeds to shout at the top of his lungs...
Snacking on Doritos is typically discouraged at funerals, as the loud crunch of the popular junk food tends to drown out heartfelt eulogies and generally detract from the somber mood of the occasion. But this will not be the case at Arch West's funeral, the former Frito-Lay marketing executive credited with first pitching the company with the idea of producing a seasoned, mass-market tortilla chip back in 1961. (He did not invent the tortilla chip itself, mind you — credit for that goes to Rebecca Carranza, who accidentally created them after she inherited a malfunctioning tortilla machine in Los Angeles in the late 1940s.)
Rick Perry's dismal performance at last week's GOP debate has many people doubting his ability to secure the Republican nomination for president in 2012. Republicans losing interest in Perry aren't shifting their support to Mitt Romney. In the last few days, there's been renewed interest in having New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie waddle into the race. We wondered today whether Christie could even survive a Republican primary, and as you'll see in this clip from tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart isn't too high on his chances either.
Here's a plastic-surgery protip: Before you go under the knife for a breast implant repaire, make sure you've made it clear with your surgeon that you want to stick with the pair, instead of the combination "uniboob."
Here's Occupy Wall Street protestor Chelsea Elliott describing to AnimalNY the events that led up to her getting a face full of pepper spray courtesy the NYPD on Saturday. And guess what? Turns out Anthony Bologna, the police officer identified by Anonymous as the guy holding the pepper spray, had been accused of civil rights violations six years earlier.
From Tit Mom to Nip Mom! After proudly debuting her giant boobs on last week's Dancing with the Stars premiere, Nancy Grace took things to a whole new level on tonight's live program when one of the "three-year-old twins" came out to play at the conclusion of her quickstep routine. Here's the slightly NSFW video.
Hurrah! Thanks to a bipartisan Senate agreement over disaster funds, government will not shut down at the end of the week! Instead, it will probably shut down in November.
Groupon was hit with its second lawsuit in as many months from employees who said they were screwed out of their overtime. This comes shortly after the online discounter lost its COO, its sales chief, its IPO date, and its favorite bullshit accounting metric. It's almost as though Groupon is some sort of hive of misery and deceit!
Behold, a play date that will make a thousand social-climbing mommies seethe with envy: Angelina Jolie brought her brood to Gwen Stefani's London home today, for a play date and dinner. Looks like Kingston and Shiloh got into one of their moms' makeup kits?
