This image is so cute, I’m gonna put it on my own Holiday postcard.

Although Jay-Z’s New York anthem featuring Alicia Keys “Empire State of Mind” is still rockin’ the airwaves (and the Sex in the City 2 trailer) he’s dropped another nostalgic black-and-white video for “Young Forever” featuring the UK’s Mr. Hudson.

MTV appears to have a male/female graphic violence double standard, censoring the now-infamous “Snooki Punch” from the airing of the episode of Jersey Shore, yet they had no problem with Amber violently pushing her fiance Gary into a corner by his throat and then slapping him while screaming the entire time. Could you imagine the outrage if the roles had been reversed – if Gary had choked Amber and violently pushed her into the corner and hit her?!? (We almost get the same effect when Amber grabs him by his D-cup man boobs.)
Watch the clip!

Actress Brittany Murphy passed away earlier today at the early age of 32. There are lots of wonderful things that can be said about Murphy’s acting career, but in addition to her charismatic on-screen talents she was also one of the most photogenic celebrities on the planet. Not only was she a very beautiful woman, but she had that Drew Barrymorish way of always being able to look like she was having a great time, and for someone that flips through hundreds of these photos a day, it was always refreshing when Brittany’s smile popped up.
I gathered some pictures of her from over the last few years and I think you will see right away exactly what I am talking about.

Pamela Anderson is talented. She can juggle a full champagne glass (from her to-go “top off”) a PDA device AND sign autographs for all her fans at the same time – all without a single glittery eye shadow smudge! I’m a little in awe. Forget all those hot messes who can’t hold their meth and…
