Rich Juzwiak · 08/15/14 11:45AMBlondie Bennett's story of wanting to be a brainless idiot so that her life could mimic that of a doll's as closely as possible made the rounds earlier this year. Laura Ling interviewed Bennett on last night's episode of her E! show Society X. During the interview, Bennett treated Ling and all of us to one of her hypnotherapy sessions that she undergoes online so as to be "brainless," as Bennett likes to call it. This involves a Skype session with an out-of-county hypnotherapist, who tells her to envision an elephant and encourages her to do whatever she wants with it. She pets its trunk.

Andy Cush · 08/15/14 08:45AMThe Worst Sex Songs To Have Sex To
Rich Juzwiak · 08/15/14 08:35AM
Released this week, FKA twigs' debut album, LP1, is, by and large, sex-themed music that is conducive to actual sex. (Try it, you'll like it, promise.) The same cannot be said for all music that was made for the purpose of making babies—some is too on the nose, some is too ridiculous, some is just cheesy. The last thing you want to do with your sex soundtrack choice is distract from the actual sex. I generally think it's best to be as obscure as possible, so as not to remind your partner of his or her past, but I also think that some pop songs are far worse than others.
