Justin Bieber may have, without even trying to do it, hit on the exact reason why people love to hate him. J–Bieb–Style posted the above picture of himself to Instagram yesterday, with the caption “Great birthday–and I’m not fat it’s the angle.” BB-Pants was doubtless trying to head off any fat-based comments at the…
A Milwaukee pub has created the biggest Bloody Mary in the world. It is the most absurd, delicious, terrifying meal you have ever seen: a half-gallon Bloody Mary with a fried chicken on top. In case you’re starving, though, don’t worry: it’s mounted with way more food than *just* a chicken. The old belief that…
Harrison Ford is in “fair to moderate condition” in a Los Angeles hospital after surviving an emergency crash landing on a golf course Thursday.

Kim Kardashian is nothing if not a human chameleon of sorts. Just two days after dropping a platinum blonde bombshell on Europe while in Paris for the city’s annual Fashion Week, Kimmy K decided she wasn’t getting the kind of attention she felt she deserved. The star of Kim Kardashian, Superstar turned heads and drew…
What is the average penis size? The British Urology Journal has published the long-awaited results of its long-term study of penis size. Their goal: Answering the often-asked question “How big is average?” Their study: “‘Am I normal?’ A systematic review and construction of nomograms for flaccid and erect penis length and circumference in up to…
Kanye West is a pretty low-key guy. He likes to keep a quiet profile, and prefers not to draw attention to himself. Remember that whole Twitter dust-up between Khloe Kardashian and Amber Rose from a couple weeks back? Kanye hardly said a word about it. Except that he “had to take 30 showers” after…
The sex toy company Fleshl!ght (Sorry, we have to edit the name) has upped the ante for goofy gadgetry with its Launchpad: a custom-molded iPad case that has a mount for its Fleshl!ght product. The end result is that you can now masturbate with no hands. (Kind of.) How does the thing work? Well,…
Andrew Dale Marcum, 21, of Hamilton OH, has been re-arrested this week. He was wanted by the Butler County Sheriff’s Department on a variety of charges, but it’s not a new crime that got him back in the pen. What tripped Marcum up was his own silly ways: the man decided it would be…

Kanye is about to drop a new album on us, but one thing he isn’t dropping is the religious comparisons of which he’s grown so fond. So Help Me God is the name of the next record by KW; the man himself announced it super-late last night via Twitter. (Super nonchalantly, too: The announcement…
Lady Gaga, known perhaps more for her keen fashion sense and bizarre, unforgettable appearances than for her voice, appeared unusually vulnerable this weekend–and she shared the results with the world on Instagram. Gaga and her fiancé Taylor Kinney (star of Chicago Fire, no less), along with Chicago native Vince Vaughan and a host of…
Paul Reubens has not had a starring role as Pee Wee Herman since Pee-Wee’s Playhouse went off the air in 1990.

Sometimes, the best comedy is straightforward. That’s the product that Comedy Central is selling with its newest promo for the upcoming Justin Bieber roast.

It’s a war thriller about Turing’s work as a cryptanalyst during World War II, and his later prosecution for homosexuality, which…
John Travolta’s career post-Battlefield Earth is an atomic wasteland of the crazy, awkward, and bizarre. Last year, he somehow managed to butcher Idina Menzel’s name into “Adele Dazeem” while introducing the singer; this year, there was a fair amount of anticipation as to what Johnny T-Pants would do to make things right with the…
How long do Oscar winners get to speak before the music plays? Polish filmmaker Pawel Pawlikowski won the Best Foreign Language Academy Award last night for his film Ida. He also, arguably, won the awards show, by ignoring the “walk-off” music that came on about twenty seconds into his acceptance speech, talking straight through it…
It sounds like the beginning to a joke: “What did the Pope compare transgendered people to?” But the LGBTQ community is not laughing at the latest publicized interviews given by Pope Francis, in which the pontiff appeared to compare transgendered people to nuclear weaponry.

Why did the Oscars switch to ten Best Picture nominees?

Until 1944, the Academy offered a selection of ten (10) nominees for Best Picture of the Year. They…
Krispy Kreme is asking for worldwide forgiveness after a store in Hull, England accidentally advertised a “KKK Wednesday” celebration. The “KKK” was, of course, supposed to stand for “Krispy Kreme Klub,” an exclusive group whose members would wear white napkins and mutter incoherent phrases while eating wonderful doughnuts. The inconsistency was first reported by…
Did James Lipton used to be a pimp? Lipton is a kindly 88-year-old man best-known to the world at large for his long-standing role as host of Inside the Actor’s Studio.

Snow: New England is sick of it; the rest of the country’s gotten less of it than usual this year; and we’re all kind of at the exact worst point of winter besides. The major holidays are all done, but it’s going to be slushy and gray and not spring for at least a…

Bobbi Kristina’s condition remains “grim,” according to multiple family members who have visited her bedside, but exactly how grim remains a mystery.

However, the weekend has come and gone, and, while…
What is butter coffee, and why is it so popular? Butter coffee: It’s the latest taste sensation to sweep the nation. (“Nation,” in this case, refers to America.

According to new reports, Bruce Jenner thinks his family leaks like a newborn’s nethers, and he’s fed up with it.

It’s a fairly simple story: Beyoncé was favored to win the Album of the Year Grammy last week. A couple of nominees said that if they won, they would hand the trophy to Beyoncé. Beck actually won the award. Beck acknowledged all of the nominees in his acceptance speech, but didn’t give the award…
The tale of Robert Michael Phillips’ latest arrest is a bit convoluted, and is perhaps best told in individual steps. Consider, then, the following: 1. Phillips, driving in West Palm Beach FL, cut in front of an unmarked Sheriff’s vehicle and narrowly avoided an accident. 2. Now being tailed by the detective in…
A Czech woman who suffered from a rare skin disease called scleroderma has had her critically narrow vagina widened using a graft from a pig’s intestine.

Kanye “K-West” West made something of a triumphant return to the Grammy stage at this year’s awards ceremony.

The crew over at Fox 10 out there in sunny Phoenix AZ is made up of some good-natured folk, and some talented improvisers to boot.
