Adele's New Album, '21'

If you haven't heard of or listened to British Singer-Songwriter Adele, you MUST. She rocks a unique blend of jazz, soul and R&B-citing Etta James, Dusty Springfield, Bjork and Billy Bragg as influences- and has one of the most beautiful and powerful voices out there today.

Her first album, 19, was a huge success. And a few days ago, I got my hands on an early copy of her latest album, 21. The music is fantastic and just as beautiful as her first. It might even be better. Here is a little taste from the new album, her first single "Set Fire to the Rain"

You should watch Skins!!

...but NOT the US version.

I don't know if you watched MTV's version of the critically acclaimed UK series Skins, but it was ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE.  I hate that the US thinks they can even come close to doing this series justice.  Skins is on an entirely different level.  The UK version (now in its 5th season) showcases the lives of high schoolers in Bristol, England.  Their fast paced lives filled with drugs, alcohol, sex and drama is a favorite show of mine.  I watched the US version and wanted to stab myself in the eye.  Not only are the actors amateur and awkward, they are trying to do the UK version story lines and I'm sad to say, they fail miserably.  Listen MTV - you absolutely cannot make Skins successful in the US.  America isn't ready.  After Monday's premier, several parent organizations have filed lawsuits against the show claiming child pornography.  Really?!!!  America just isn't ready for something as open minded and real as Skins.  Here's my suggestion - watch the REAL Skins series on Netflix.  Don't waste your time with MTV's bleeped-out-trying-to-be-cool-but-it-will-never-happen bullshit.  I will not let you ruin Skins for me.

Britanna is back on!!

Glee creators just announced that Brittany and Santana will be back together in the next few episodes of Glee.  I know this is stupid news, but it gives me an excuse to post this ADORABLE picture of Heather Morris and Naya Rivera...

Burglar!!

Cover = blown

J-Hud is Skinny

Maybe it's just me and I've been out of the loop but...

When the HELL did Jennifer Hudson lose all that weight?! She's so SKINNY NOW. I swear it was just yesterday she was big and beautiful winning that academy award that she didn't really deserve to win (c'mon, have you SEEN Dreamgirls?!)

Anyway, she looks great. I guess this is what Hollywood does to a person.

"Happy Friday ya'll!!"

Bone Thugs and Harmony?

This kid raps FAST. Whoa.

Dance with your eyes, not your feet.

Ryan Gosling learned some dance moves from some orphans while visiting Congo...

Creed's music so bad, scares off pack of wolves.

A 13 year old Norwegian boy claims he was walking home from school when he encountered 4 wolves ahead of him.  He was listening to Creed's "Overcome" through his phone to which the pack of wolves got scared of lead singer Scott Stapp's voice and ran off.  What a great tactic - if the rest of the world can't handle Creed, why wouldn't a pack of wolves?  This is the reason why I have Paris Hilton songs on my ipod...protection!!!

Cat in Cast

Thursday is almost over and that means it's almost Friday and that means it's almost the weekend!!

Here is a cat in a cast!

Snort Away

On Wednesday in Miami, a few burglars robbed a woman's home and took an urn containing ashes of her deceased father and his two dogs. The burglars then proceeded to SNORT some of the ashes because they thought it was cocaine.

SERIOUSLY!? Who in their right mind could mistake ASHES IN AN URN for COCAINE? These idiot's apparently discussed returning the ashes to said woman but opted for tossing them in a nearby lake, instead.

This reminds me of the story I once read about Keith Richards snorting a concoction of his fathers ashes + cocaine. However, he was completely cognizant of the fact that he was snorting ashes. And he stated that his father "probably wouldn't have cared." How is that guy still alive?

And you thought YOUR job was embarrassing...

The Sega TOYlet.

Those Japanese be all cray cray!  They've created a game that hangs above urinals which measures your stream.  You literally pee into the toilet and get to play different games.  Here are the games to choose from:

1)  The Graffiti Eraser - The stronger the stream, the more cyberwalls you clean.
2)  Milk from nose - You compete against past players with the measurements of your stream.  You "eliminate" players to become the reigning Milker.
3)  Dress off - The faster you pee, the faster a dress comes off of a girl.

There are few things that come to mind when thinking about this new "invention."  Homeless people will now be entertained (it's about time!!).  Also, girls going to the bathroom together will no longer be an issue - boys will be doing it too.  Go for the goal boys!!!!

Did you watch last night???

From left to right are:  The father from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Paula Abdul, Doogie Howser, Jennifer Aniston, and some contest winner that won a raffle at a grocery store.

I didn't watch.  I have no interest.

If you are emotional right now...

...then DON'T watch this. These two became an internet sensation with their rendition of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero's version of "Home." The father and daughter duo made an appearance on Ellen and this little girl is just absolutely adorable. Look at her working the crowd!! Precious...

This is America.

And we are FOREVER LAZY.  Fuck the Snuggie, it's all about the new Forever Lazy.  Or as I like to call it, the adult size Onesie (which are sold at Target btw).  Anyway, how are people making money off of this shit?  Absolutely unbelievable.

Oh heyyyy...

...Nice purse, err, I mean ARM.

Oh great.

Here's the next National Anthem...well according to these fools who wrote this song.  It's the battle hymn of Sarah Palin.  Take a good listen at the lyrics...they'll make you barf.

WTF.

And now, the world has officially ended.
