A Dreary Look Back at Jon Huntsman's Failed Presidential Campaign
Jim Newell · 01/16/12 12:23PMIt's a tearful day in the world of cosmopolitan magazines and television studios, as the infamously sane Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman has dropped out of the race, due to a near-total void of interest in his campaign among Republican primary voters. How did this relatively competent-seeming person lose his support so dramatically? Well, he didn't; he never had any support. So let's remember his anemic campaign with a gallery of some funny photos and ludicrous screen shots.
Lana Del Rey's Infamous SNL Performance
Leah Beckmann · 01/16/12 11:53AMThe perpetually pouty Instagrammed pout monster that is Lana Del Rey appeared on Saturday Night Live this past weekend and it was well, it was this. And this. And also this. Yes, LDR stunk up the joint and the Internet is going nuts over it. Apparently snarly lip curls and sleepy Benadryl eyes don't work in a live context like they do on YouTube.

Hamilton Nolan · 01/16/12 09:36AMHaha, get ready, media-savvy internet readers, because the august New York Times, the Grey Lady, the Paper of Record, has written a whole story about big butts (bottoms). Can you imagine the jibes that online rascals without a care in the world for decorum will come up with about this one??? Someone hide the children, other than the ones who like big butts and cannot lie—we're butting into your business butt good, regarding large butts!
Drunk & Disorderly: Faces Of The Golden Globes
Timothy Burke · 01/16/12 08:00AMAwards shows are compelling because they're occasions for the rich, famous, and beautiful to go above and beyond to the apogee of glamor. The Golden Globes, however—mostly due to the mass quantities of alcohol and other substances in close proximity—are often the occasion for the glamorous to become beastlike in the blink of an eye. (Except Kate Winslet. She is never not absolutely fabulous.)

Ricky Gervais Just Got Bleeped
Matt Toder · 01/15/12 10:19PMWhile bringing out Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek, Ricky went to make a joke which went something like "...but I can't understand what the fuck they're saying." But, it had to be inferred because the audio cut out right at that moment.
Madonna Takes a Swipe at Ricky Gervais
Matt Toder · 01/15/12 10:09PMNot the best or most cutting joke in the world but it's about as daring as anyone is getting during the show. Plus, it recalled when Madonna and Britney Spears kissed back when people cared about Britney. No, really, good on which ever Golden Globes producer whipped that up just before Madonna went on.

Adrian Chen · 01/13/12 06:13PMThese Photos Do Not Count In Our Republican Bounty Contest
Jim Newell · 01/13/12 05:15PMTouché to Michael, a.ka. commenter MichaelX, for his quick response to our Republican Primary Bounty List. He sent us several photos of Republican candidates getting makeup applied, and will be duly rewarded with a check for $22.75. But now that this loophole has been exploited once, we'll clarify the rules for all future submissions: We want your original photos of candidates in the compromising, humiliating positions listed, not professional photos that you might find on a simple Google Image search.
