The 5 Best Bargains at the Michael Jackson Auction

neverland

It’s impossible to wrap your head around the strange journey that has been Michael Jackson’s life. From child-star to multi-platinum mega-star to to child molester to creepy old white guy, his life has taken more turns than we can count. And now it’s taking another one.

Because he’s incredibly, miserably broke, Jackson has decided to auction off almost everything in his infamous Neverland Ranch. The list of items not only provides a revealing glimpse into the once glamorous/juvenile life that Jackson lead, but also presents a unique opportunity to get your hands on some truly crazy sh*t at rock bottom prices. Honestly, it’s amazing how low this stuff is selling for. MJ must be DESPERATE. (more…)

Is Pamela Anderson Art?

Pamela Anderson is truly one of a kind: a pin-up with huge implants who somehow managed to cross over from the pages of Playboy to the American mainstream. There are others like her — most notably Carmen Electra and Jenny McCarthy — but while her contemporaries have been languishing on the D-list for years now (McCarthy has literally been reduced to an autism awareness activist), Pam has managed to remain a household name for the better of two decades.

In many ways, she embodies the modern American dream (even though she’s Canadian). She went from rags to riches — obscurity to notoriety — on nothing more than a pretty face and a fantastic pair of boobs. Many have taken to calling her the Marilyn Monroe of her time (someone even made a video about it). It’s an easy comparison to make, except for one glaring difference between the two: Marilyn died when she was 36. At the age of 41, Pam is still alive and well. (more…)

Dirty Thursday: Every Time I Die

BAND: Every Time I Die

HOMETOWN: Buffalo, New York

MEMBERS: Keith Buckley, Jordan Buckley, Andrew Williams, Michael Novak, Josh Newton

THEIR DEAL: This hardcore/screamo band from New York is best known for their energy-filled live performances and the singer Keith Buckley’s ever witty and poetic lyrics; seldom found in a genre like this.

THE DIRT: Seems as though the brother of the singer and guitarist, Jordan Buckley, has more artistic talents than just music.  He recently started posting his artwork online and I’ve gotta say…it’s almost as abrasive as the band’s music.  Check it out here…
