Dionne From Clueless Might Be Starring on Fox News

Jason Parham · 05/15/14 04:19PM

Remember the summer of 1995 when Clueless hit theaters and you just knew you were gonna be "rolling with the homies" forever? That's the summer I fell in love with Dionne Davenport, played masterfully by Stacey Dash (fun fact: she is the cousin of Dame Dash, aka The Guy Formerly Known As Jay Z's BFF). But then the party came to an abrupt stop during the 2012 presidential election when Dash came out in support of Republican candidate Mitt Romney. Twitter damn-near skewered her, too (a lot of which had to do with Dash being a black woman in the public sphere, but as my Uncle Rodney once told me: Haters gonna hate, son).

The Beygency has just released an official statement to the Associated Press regarding the recently leaked elevator security footage captured at the Met Gala earlier this month. In it, Jay Z and Solange "each assume their share of responsibility" for the confrontation. They also dismiss reports that Solange was "intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening" as "simply false." She was just being herself. :)

Streaming video services are a blessing and a curse. Trying to choose from among the documentary you swear you'll watch someday, a campy horror remake, one of Tyler Perry's 50 Tyler Perry movies starring Tyler Perry, and Cocktail is hard enough when you're alone. Throw another person into the mix, and you don't stand a chance.

Michael Jackson Died So His Music Could Live

Rich Juzwiak · 05/15/14 03:22PM

When Michael Jackson died June 25, 2009, it had been almost eight years since he hit the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. (and just barely—2001's "You Rock My World" peaked at No. 10). Billboard reports that in the nearly five years since his death, he's sold 12.8 million albums. It is an oft-made observation that death gave him the comeback he wouldn't likely have achieved again in life. By the end, he was gone–too self-absorbed, too clouded by drug addiction. Like many greats, his creative juices had an expiration date. After the earth-shattering release of Thriller, he spent the rest of his career chasing after that level of glory, achieving aftershocks at best.

A man in America's poorest county, Wolfe County, Kentucky, says he "will vote for anybody against Obama... I don't care if it's a Democrat, a Republican, an Indian, a Pakistani, even a Frenchman!" Also, Obama isn't running again, and Wolfe County is 98 percent white.

Nicole Kidman's Grace Kelly biopic, Grace of Monaco, opened the Cannes Film Festival this week and is being savaged by critics. It currently has a 5 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Sounds like it's so bad that it's a must-see.

Do you like to blast your jerky? If you've ever thought about blasting your jerky with a handheld electric-powered jerky blaster, you might want to think again. Federal regulators are recalling electronic jerky blasters, because they could scorch your jerky and a whole lot more!
