Rush Limbaugh is an easy tagert. I mean, how could you miss? Zing! Even I’m getting in on the act. Jay-Z has a new song referencing the reactionary white whale. The lyrics: Please tell Bill O’Reilly to fall back/ Tell Rush Limbaugh to get off my balls/ It’s 2010, not 1864 [pronounced “fawh” in a […]

Redmond O’Neal To Get Reality Show About Waiting for Him to Relapse
Redmond O’Neal, the son of late space case Farrah Fawcett and unwittingly incestuous narcissist Ryan O’Neal, will be getting his own reality show once sprung from the clink. He’s currently in a California detention center for being a recidivist drug addict. The reality show will focus on waiting for him to remember that meth feels […]
Sesame Street for Jews Coming
A Jew-centric version of Sesame Street, titled Shalom Sesame, is currently being filmed in both Israel and the US. My brain is actually malfunctioning from the amount of possible jokes bouncing around in there. Let’s just start with: it’s never too early to teach a kid to count. Interest. The show will feature Jewish celebs […]
Melanie Griffith Is Doing a Little Rehab Touch-Up
Melanie Griffith‘s rep has confirmed that the actress, 52, has checked into rehab again. But it’s not like when you go to rehab because you’re a drug addict – this is merely a routine stay devised by her doctors years ago, when she needed it for real. It’s sort of like when you get something […]
What Kind of Spelling Fan Are You? Tori? Candy? Bee?
I’ll also accept “none.” Candy Spelling, who is 63, not an actress, and best know for being the wife of her late husband and the mother of her estranged daughter, has just landed a deal for a scripted TV series. “I wouldn’t do reality,” says Candy.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is throwing a little fundraiser to plump its coffers. Tickets cost $100, 000 dollars. For that cash, you get to see Bruce Springsteen, U2, Metallica, Simon and Garfunkel, Eric Clapton, Crosby Stills Nash & Friends, Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin. I would only see that concert if it […]
MTV Might Be Slightly Less Execrable in the Near Future
This is impossible for someone young to understand, but MTV used to be the coolest channel on television. For most of the 90s, it produced original programming that you did not need to be a stupid, female, 12-year-old Less Than Jake fan to enjoy; shows like The State, Liquid Television, and Beavis and Butt-Head. Then the […]
It Costs $4.6 Million to Sleep With Marilyn Monroe
The crypt directly above Marilyn Monroe‘s has sold for $4.6 million dollars on Ebay to an undisclosed, gay buyer. The crypt, currently occupied, was put on the market by Ms. Elsie Poncher, the widow of its inhabitant. The 80-year-old sold the space to raise cash to pay off the mortgage on her Beverly Hills home.

Well, Isn’t That Rico: Beverly Hills Chihuaha Wins Award for Positive Hispanic Media Portrayal
Ever hear of the Imagen Awards? They were established in 1985 by the cracker-ass cracker Norman Lear and the presumably Hispandicos Helen Hernandez to reward positive portrayals of Latinos in the media. This year’s ceremony was just held on Friday at the Beverly Hilton. Taking home the top honors in film: Beverly Hills Chihauha. I’m […]
