VBS went on a field trip to Mexico and uncovered an entire mega-industry that the US west of Austin knew nothing about: Narco-Cinema, low-budget, straight-to-video films about drugs, dealers, and the mob. Kind of like if Scarface met Troma.

Which Singer Is Smoking Crack in Public?

Brian Moylan · 04/02/10 09:22AM

At least no one took her picture lighting up. This actress wants a product placement deal for paparazzi photos. Another actress is trying to get any paparazzi attention at all. It's all as shitty as one media company's turd-filled lobby.
