Surveillance video from an MTA bus caught the fatal Bruce Jenner car accident on camera, and it appears to show the former Olympian rear-ending one car (a white Lexus) into oncoming traffic, then continuing on and hitting the next car (a Prius) in front of him. While the actual surveillance video has not been…
Why did the Oscars switch to ten Best Picture nominees? Well, back in the day–the glory days; the Golden Age of Hollywood; whatever you want to call it–the Academy Awards were a much more inclusive thing. 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. He is probably second-best-known for his small, but meaty role as Warden Gentles on Arrested Development. And he is probably third-best-known for being…
Lady Gaga went and got herself engaged over the Valentine’s Day weekend. So, first of all: Congratulations to her! And to her lucky fella. The lucky fella?

But it’s not for anything that MacLaine did; rather,…
The long-running Rose-Kardashian feud has gone to another level. After Rose took shots at Kylie Jenner’s relationship with Tyga–specifically, at Kylie’s age–Kim and Khloe took to Twitter separately to stick up for their family’s honor. The tweets mentioned Rose’s stripper past specifically, and asserted that the Kardashians always take the high road when it…
Mad Men is possibly the most acclaimed television show of this young century. It’s won more accolades–and style points–than most programmes will ever dream of. And the whole crazy ride will come to an end this spring: Sunday, April 5th, is the date the first of the final seven episodes will air. The whole…
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…
Cindy Crawford’s husband Rande Gerber has shared a loving valentine to his wife–and he’s done it for the benefit of the rest of us.

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.

A Corpus Christi police officer, responding to a report of a single-car accident, found that the driver of the car had fled the scene…but that he had also left something rather important behind.

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.

Who is Frank Underwood based on? The premiere of House of Cards‘ new season is just a touch under two weeks away, and anticipation is way past fever pitch.

Cindy Ollig, who owns Denver’s Perfect Petal shop, says it doesn’t make sense to add huge handfuls…
Kanye “K-West” West made something of a triumphant return to the Grammy stage at this year’s awards ceremony.

The magical day is almost upon us: tomorrow, Friday, February 13th, in this the year of our Lord 2015, we can all finally go see Fifty Shades of Grey on the silver screen.

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.

Heartless web giant GoDaddy has pulled what became a super-controversial Super Bowl commercial before it even aired, thanks to pressure brought by animal lovers the world over.

Brittney Husbyn (amazing name #1) and Briggs Fussey (amazinger name #2) first paired up at the 1995 wedding of Fussey’s godmother’s wedding. The pair were three. They were also adorable.

AMC is as tight with new information about Better Call Saul as is it is with Mad Men: Stuff just does not leak out unless the network or the show’s producers want it to. That’s the main reason why we haven’t gotten a proper trailer for the show until three weeks before the premiere:…
New Orleans-based rapper Kevin Gates is a hoot. He’s been seeing the same woman for a long time–two years, in fact–and has known for most of that time that the woman is his cousin.

When Russell Crowe opens his mouth, words come out. Sometimes, those words are not offensive. Other times, though, they are. And now is one such time!

John Balmer, 50, is solely to blame for what happened to him at the K-Mart there in Pasco County FL. He was in possession of both methamphetamine and marijuana at the same time that he was wearing a T-shirt that had the following words written on it: “WHO NEEDS DRUGS.” Underneath that, in tinier…

We all know what happens when you take a picture of Emma Stone without her expressly-written permission: you’re either getting a heartfelt message or a goofy pose for your trouble.

The first of Bill Cosby’s three Canadian performances went smoothly this week: the comedian received a standing ovation from his audience after Wednesday night’s performance in Kitchener, Ontario. Evidently, the Cos took that as an invitation to really loosen up. Last night, during his show in London (ON), Cosby addressed a woman who got…
Fargo turned out to be one of the most delightful surprises of the 2014 television season in part because people were so skeptical about whether or not it would be worth a damn that it snuck up on a lot of folks. That, and it had an absolutely stellar cast. And fantastic cinematography, and really…
The terror attack on the Parisian offices of satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo sent shockwaves through the entertainment world today, with many writers, actors, and comedians, issuing statements of disbelief and solidarity both formal and informal.

Fifty Shades of Grey‘s producers were hoping to land a PG-13 rating for their upcoming Valentine’s Day date flick. Instead, they barely managed to avoid the dreaded NC-17 tag.

President Obama may have returned to work today, but he managed to finish up one piece of unofficial business during his Hawaiian Christmas Excursion: this weekend, he dropped by Eddie Vedder’s house.
