Jennifer Lawrence Has an Insane Stalker Who Thinks He’s Jesus
28 may 2013 12:13

A 23-year-old Canadian man (and complete creeper) has been apprehended in Jennifer Lawrence‘s hometown of Louisville, Ky. after harassing her family in an attempt to meet her. Zhao Han Cong of Vancouver, British Columbia, was cited for interstate stalking and repeated harassing phone communications after continuously calling and texting Blaine Lawrence, the ‘Hunger Games’ star’s brother, according to an affidavit written by FBI agent Richard Boswell III. Using the pseudonym “Ted,” Cong began sending Blaine texts asking to be put in contact with his famous sister so he might “protect” her. He also referenced the Boston bombing, blaming Blaine for allowing Jen to film her latest project in Boston in the weeks before the attack. After commenting on the “bad things” he thought would befall the Lawrence family, Cong eventually relinquished his real name and address in Canada — totally reasonable. But then he continued to email Blaine, telling his life story, relating bible passages to Jennifer and saying he was her “husband for life.” (We understand that Jen’s hotness can bring about something similar to a religious experience, but not cool, dude.) On April 18, after more messages, Cong actually flew to Louisville and set out to meet the actress, sending Blaine the message, “You got me really upset. When I’m, when I’m upset, let’s see what happens, alright?” Cong then took a cab to the Indian Hills Police Department and played it real cool by asking for the address of Lawrence’s mom, whereupon he was immediately taken into custody and interviewed for three hours — during which he confessed to being the second coming of Jesus, saying Jen’s mom held the key to his mission. In summary, Jesus came back as an Asian-Canadian to chat with Jennifer Lawrence’s mom, just like the bible said he would. As you might imagine, Cong underwent a psych evaluation and was hospitalized in the Central State Hospital where he used his one phone call to dial — guess who — Blaine Lawrence. After his release he was re-arrested and federal complaints were filed, and the nightmare is hopefully over for Jen and her family.

Amanda Bynes Has fallen off some imaginary ledge and lashes at Rihanna
28 may 2013 12:10

Amanda Bynes has been acting increasingly unhinged for a while now, and being arrested late last week seems to have pushed her off some imaginary ledge. Not only is she claiming the bong she tossed out a window was really just a vase, she’s threatening to sue pretty much everyone — and now, for reasons no one can quite explain, she’s lashed out at Rihanna with some particularly appalling words. In a series of quickly deleted tweets on Sunday (May 26), she told RiRi: “@rihanna Chris Brown beat you because you’re not pretty enough” and “@rihanna no one wants to be your lover so you call everyone and their mother that I almost named my new dog Rihanna.” Uhhh. What?

Illuminated Animals, Dazzlingly Brought To Life | So Bad So Good
28 may 2013 11:24

We’re big fans of conventional street art, there will always be a place for a trusty spray-can and paint brush. But now digital projection mapping is becoming more and more commonplace, giving everyday objects a limitless new lease on life. Take these two large sculptures of a rhinoceros & owl (a random pairing we have to admit) in Rotterdam, Holland for example. They were featured at the Rotterdamse Museumnacht as part of the Rotterdam Museum Night, whereby art is taken to the streets and outside of the gallery space. Both were created by Sober Industries and Studio Rewind, their panels uniquely mapped & made interactive by Bruce Moerdjiman. Members of the public could then actually control the type of visuals that were then displayed on the creatures themselves, including altering the colours and toggling different effects like blending & scratching. You can see it all in motion in the video below, it’s a dazzling collision between design, physics, sculpture and colour and it’s pretty captivating to watch unfold.

Baptist Church Causes Trouble In Oklahoma.
24 may 2013 15:06

Westboro Baptist Church has caused quite an outrage in Moore, Oklahoma. Church members were planning to picket the funeral of the 9 year old Nicolas McCabe, tornado victim, but chickened out because the community united and hundreds of bikers lined up to guard the funeral from the hateful protesters. They apparently believe that natural disaster victims were meant to die, because god is punishing people for sins.

Amanda Bynes Busted For Weed, And Throwing A Bong Out The Window!
24 may 2013 14:52

The ridiculous physical transformation Amanda Bynes underwent is apparently not enough for her new bad girl image. She was arrested for criminal possession of marijuana, tampering with evidence and reckless endangerment this Thursday night. The 26 year old was reported to the cops by the doorman, for smoking pot in the lobby, and as they entered her smoke filled apartment she threw a bong out the window of the 36th floor. This girl is going to be the next Lindsay Lohan.

Bill Hader Tells Howard Stern About Justin Bieber's Entourage
24 may 2013 10:06

Earlier today, former-SNL cast member Bill Hader (that feels wrong to type) spoke to Howard Stern on his Howard 100 radio show about what life’s like as an unemployed man without a Studio 8H to call his own. Stern’s a big fan of Hader — he once said that “Puppet Class” is one of SNL‘s all-time great sketches — but he did admit that he was surprised how funny Justin Timberlake was during his March episode. Hader sang JT’s praises, too, saying, “He’s great…Also, guy doesn’t show up with anybody. It’s just him.” Unlike a certain other pop star named Justin.

Mary J. Blige Owes
20 may 2013 18:12

Sublime songstress Mary J. Blige has been hit with yet another tax lien — this one totaling $3.4 million for unpaid taxes in Bergen County, N.J. Sounds like even 2013 won’t offer her a break. According to sleuths, she owes the “IRS $574.907 from 2009, $2.2 million from 2010 and $647,604 from 2011.” This on top of her charity being sued and separate liens for just over $900K in back taxes she supposedly owes the state of New Jersey. Blige was also sued by Bank of America for not paying back a $500,000 loan or the interest. What’s more, she and her husband are the defendants in another lawsuit for defaulting on a $2.2 million loan back in November of 2012. Given this mess, one of two things must be true: Either Mary J. drowned kittens in orphans tears in a past life, or she simply doesn’t know how money works.

Robert Pattinson Spotted Moving Out After Recent Split
20 may 2013 17:53

After news of a fresh split between ‘Twilight’ stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson broke over the weekend, the world was on high Robsten alert — and today (May 20) he was spotted moving a bunch of his belongings and his two dogs out of K-Stew’s L.A. home. Pattinson was seen driving off with a suitcase, a bike, and two garbage bags full of items in the back of his truck, while his pooches Bear and Bernie rode along next to him in the cab. The duo are currently spending time apart in their separate homes after raising suspicion when Stewart and Pattinson spent his 27th birthday apart — Rob by having a private party that his not-yet-ex didn’t attend (or wasn’t allowed to, depending on which source you read), and Kristen by moping around with her friends. Insiders close to the couple say they wouldn’t be surprised if they got back together eventually (which, oddly, looks an awful lot like the pair when they’re not together at all). But time will tell.

The Baby Bachelor - Episode 1
20 may 2013 17:28

It seems ABC has got some major competition on their hands with the launch of ‘The Baby Bachelor.’ On a recent episode of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live,’ Jimmy debuted his new reality series, which stars his nephew Wesley, who yearns for a bride and a fire truck because he’s still a toddler. Much like the original ‘Bachelor‘ series, ‘The Baby Bachelor’ will have his pick from an array of possible brides, who are searching for either their soulmate or just a sugar daddy (or possibly an actual daddy). We don’t know about you, but we think everyone agrees with Wesley — we’d all like to get the big girl. Who will stay and who will go “bye-bye”? Stay tuned for more!

Japanese Chef Killed Over Fried Noodles In Germany.
20 may 2013 15:53

Japanese chef Miki Nozawa was killed by two unhappy diners in Germany. According to German Newspapaer Sylt Rundschau, the two men 36 and 50 wanted their money back because they didn't like the fried noodles served by the chef at his snack bar in Sylt. They left without paying, and later ran into Nozawa at a bar in Westerland, in which the conflict continued. They savagely beat up the 57 year old Nozawa and he ended up in the hospital with internal bleeding and severe brain injuries. He died of brain hemorrhage the next day. The two men were arrested, but later released due to lack of evidence.

Best Miguel Leg Drop Memes
20 may 2013 00:26

Tonight at the Billboard Music Awards, Miguel decided to get a jump start on his WWE career by doing the Hogan leg drop on some poor girl. While singing his hit song "Adorn" he attempted to go from one stage to another by jumping over a crowd of people, but he ended up landing on a girl reportedly named Khyati. Khyati was alright, and Miguel was seen with her backstage (shorty was holding down an icepack though) but you know Miguel's life is never going to be the same because 38 seconds after it happened the collective Internet screamed, "LIKE WE ALWAYS DO IT THIS TIME!," got on Photoshop, and started making memes.

YouTube Celebrates 8 Years
20 may 2013 00:12

Sunday marks YouTube's eighth birthday, and by the company's own measure things have been going pretty steadily since 2005, when it launched. According to a blog on the company's site, YouTube sees more than 100 million videos uploaded to its site every minute, or more than four days worth of clips. More than 1 billion people visit the site for news, and more than millions of partners worldwide churn out content for YouTube. Among some highlights mentioned in the post are Psy's record-breaking views for the videos "Gangnam Style" and "Gentleman," plus Sesame Street going global with 1 billion views. No mention of being acquired in 2006 by search giant Google, which was company's biggest purchase to date—$1.65 billion in stock. https://youtube-global.blogspot.com/2013/05/heres-to-eight-great-years.html?m=1

Hard Sci-fi
19 may 2013 23:22

Are you tired of “sci-fi” movies that are basically just action flicks with lasers and spacecraft instead of bullets and cars? Looking for something, I dunno, a little harder? Don’t be ashamed, a lot of us nerds are. Well, it looks like the upcoming Europa Report may satisfy your hard sci-fi yearnings. The movie, about a manned mission to Jupiter’s moon Europa looks to take a fairly grounded, realistic approach to space travel. Well, until the astronauts encounter some kind of alien monsters under Europa’s ice, at which case I’m betting realism probably gives way to a lot of screaming, running and dying.

Netflix Adultery Is A Real Thing
19 may 2013 23:18

I have a confession to make. It’s something I should have said awhile ago, especially to a bunch of strangers on the Internet. I…have been cheating on my fiancée. I didn’t mean to, I love her so much, but she was working late one night and I was at home all by lonesome, bored out of my mind…and, well, I watched the entirety of Who the (Bleep) Did I Marry? on Netflix Instant without her. I’M SO SORRY, HONEY. It’s only now do I realize the irony. Apparently I’m not the only committing digital adultery, though: according to studies released by Netflix, 51% of those in a relationship would cheat on their lover by streaming a TV show they agreed to watch together before their partner had a chance to watch it. And more than 28 million already have. More cold, hard facts:

How To Get Into Private Party
19 may 2013 23:15

Even at the risk of sounding like Tony Robbins, I believe the key to getting into secret parties is: confidence. Act like you belong there, or better yet, pretend you’re the bodyguard for someone famous like Gwyneth Paltrow, who was in Shallow Hal with…“banana-fingered self-help guru” Tony Robbins. *hears Inception music played by farts* That’s how “gonzagtv” crept his way into an exclusive Cannes party, which had “lots of of champagne, lot of beautiful women…but in fact it was very boring.” If only the event had been for Shallow Hal 2: Tit for Fat.

Season 38 Musical Performances
19 may 2013 22:36

It’s easy to bag on Saturday Night Live for their musical guests, but just as the “SNL isn’t as funny as it used to be” argument is played out and incorrect, history often looks kindly at the artists the show books. Take, for instance, last year: yes, there was the Karmin fiasco and One Direction should never have performed on the same stage that Fear once did and Lana Del Rey hadn’t yet thawed out of her accidental ice shell, but otherwise, solid. Radiohead, the Black Keys, Robyn, Kelly Clarkson, Coldplay, Jack White, the Shins, Arcade Fire, Usher, the Rolling Stones — even if you don’t like a lot of those bands (*coughcoldplaycough*), it’s not as if they were unworthy of performing on SNL. In a year, when we look back at season 38 of SNL, which ended last night, how many miscues will we count? Justin Bieber, definitely, and probably Macklemore and Ryan Lewis and fun.; otherwise, not too shabby. Rarely spectacular, usually good, briefly awful, not unlike SNL itself. Here are seven of the season’s best performances.

Caffeine Dispensing Toothbrush?!
18 may 2013 16:58

Colgate-Palmolive has recently filed a patent application for a toothbrush with the ability to deliver a dose of chemicals to the user. It could be used to dispense painkillers, diet pills or invoke sensations such as cold or heat. But the idea has taken it's course particularly towards caffeine. Although this easy to use caffeine toothbrush might sound appealing to many coffee drinkers who don't have the time to make a cup in the morning, or may be need the energy but don't necessarily like the taste, the FDA is skeptical and is investigating the safety of the caffeine dispensing brush, focusing on adolescents and children. I guess we'll find out the future of this interesting device soon.

Man Cuts Off His Dong In A Drunk Fight With Girlfriend!
18 may 2013 16:11

After getting into an argument with his girlfriend a drunk Taiwanese man performed what is known as autopeotomy on himself by cutting off his penis with scissors. I can only imagine the words that accommodated the action. To add insult to injury, he then flushed the cut off bit down the toilet! Isn't it always the crazy jealous women doing that to their men, wow what a stupid situation. He slipped into a coma from massive blood loss before he was brought to the hospital by his terrified and "never to be happy again" girlfriend. He eventually came out of the coma, and doctors expect him to make a full recovery. He now has an inch-and-a-half of his penis left, and is probably greatly regretting his actions.

Li admitted, "I've done this about ten times." "At first, it all started because I was bored and this seemed fun," said Li. "Later, it just became something to do." He also said that when he becames stuck and frustrated with his art work, streaking helps him release that energy. Although public nudity is illegal in China, a Beijing lawyer named Liu Xiaoyuan said that since that occurred at night (and perhaps didn't disturb the peace), criminal charges are unlikely.

Hatchet-Wielding Hitchhiker Kai Wanted For Murder

The victim, Joseph Galfy, was found inside his home on Starlite Drive on May 13, 2013 after officers received a call to check on his well-being. An autopsy performed the following day determined that Galfy died as a result of blunt force trauma, said Union County Prosecutor Theodore J. Romankow. Based on the investigation, authorities know that McGillvary has his hair to alter his appearance." Didn’t happen.

'Star Trek Into Darkness' Is Great, Until...
16 may 2013 16:29

Star Trek Into Darkness actually does everything right, regardless of how you feel about the franchise. It’s action-packed; it’s fast-paced; it’s even actually surprisingly thoughtful, raising the question of whether we hunt terrorists damn the torpedoes or whether we stop and think about the moral consequences of our actions. Do we go to our enemies guns blazing and give no quarter, or do we refuse to accept war as an inevitability? And then everybody loses their damn minds. Spoilers to follow. Let’s start with the good. This is not a remake of The Wrath of Khan and in fact largely avoids using it. Unfortunately, where it does, it’s massively clunky, and it leads to the worst part of the movie. But until then, it’s a lot of fun, better than the first one, even. OK, so there’s a lot of Star Wars here. Kirk even flies what amounts to a Millenium Falcon at one point. The opening is clumsy and tone-deaf to an alarming degree. It’s not a perfect movie by a long shot. But then the ship rights itself. Abrams, having a good cast and being a TV guy, handles the moments of quiet drama better than the enormous action sequences, but the enormous action sequences are fun and solidly done. The movie does a good job being its own story and it actually makes superb use of Khan as a character, helped considerably by Benedict Cumberbatch knowing when to show restraint and when to eat scenery like it’s candy. Once the editing smooths out it’s actually a zippy ride.

Crazed Taylor Swift Fan Arrested
15 may 2013 15:54

An overzealous Taylor Swift fan was arrested in the wee hours of the morning on Wednesday, May 15, after swimming up to her new digs in Rhode Island. The unnamed dude, a 22-year-old Chicago native, made the long, cold journey to Swift’s home, but was scared away by her security team and decided to turn around. He was spotted by cops exiting the water around 2 a.m., about a mile from Taylor’s new $17 million dollar estate, and told police he had swam there intending to meet her. He was promptly booked on trespassing charges and remains in custody. Who says romance is dead? (And really, maybe he shouldn’t have been dispatched so quickly — this has the makings of a great song.) But alas, TMZ spoke to the Westerly Police, who said there is a “zero tolerance policy” for trespassing, and that they already met with Taylor on the matter — after she woke up, presumably. Taylor hasn’t released a statement, but we’re guessing she knew he was trouble when he, uh, swam in.

Store Refuses to Send eCard to Man Named Dick

Unfortunately, poor Dick is going to have to settle for snail mail when his birthday comes around this year. British department store Marks & Spencer recently denied the wishes of sweet old Ruth Levy for a birthday e-card. Being the lovely woman we imagine her to be, Levy wished to send her pal an electronic birthday message. Unfortunately, it was deemed impossible, with the reason being her use of profanity in the message. But it turns out the only profanity she used was calling her friend Richard by his common name – Dick. After several rewrite attempts, Levy was sent a letter from M&S, suggesting she use the name “Richard.”Levy has dubbed the incident “political correctness gone absolutely mad.” So what are your thoughts? But first, for what it’s worth…Happy Birthday, Dick!

Drug Breathalyzers Are On Their Way!
14 may 2013 22:15

Swedish researchers at the Karolinska Institutet have developed a system called SensAbues, which allows them to use breath analysis to test for 12 different drugs in someones system with 20 breaths, including cocaine, marijuana and amphetamines. The reason it works very accurately is because small amounts of molecules from our blood diffuse into the lining fluid of the lungs, therefore reflecting micro-particles of substances in our bloodstream through the breath. This break through in combining science and technology is sure to go into developing something as convenient as the roadside breathalyzers used for alcohol testing, and we might soon see them in U.S.
