VIDEO Mariah Carey, Jimmy Fallon and The Roots make Christmas better

ByDarren O

Just a few days ago I wrote about Mariah Carey and her revealing attire doing their best to help light up the Christmas tree in Rockefeller center. In the post I argued that Mariah’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You,” is probably the best holiday song of the last 20 years.

Carey joined Jimmy Fallon, The Roots and some seriously adorable singing kids to lay down the most wonderful rendition of the song you’ll ever see. It’s another clip in which the super-talented house band along with Fallon break out toy instruments and other assorted items to make a joyous noise. Check it out!

Teen girl bank robber arrested after posting Youtube video bragging about it

ByAsa Hawks

I’m not sure if there is a Bank Robber’s Handbook, but if so, 19-year-old Hannah Sabata of Stromsburg, Nebraska must have the old edition that doesn’t include the new chapter on not bragging about your crimes on the internet! York County law enforcement arrested Hannah at her home on Wednesday for her part in a Waco, Nebraska bank robbery and car theft thanks in part to Hannah uploading a video to Youtube announcing she had robbed a bank and stolen a car!

But in an amazing case of not judging a book by its cover, we’ve uncovered some online journal entries written by Hannah that reveal an amazingly horrible past that includes an extended stay at a mental hospital after an attempted overdose and getting pregnant at the age of 17 after contracting AIDS from a carnival worker, only to have her baby taken away before she could even take him home from the hospital. So was this just a huge cry for help?
