Lana Del Rey’s “rise to fame” has sparked a lot of debate and criticism ever since she supposedly tanked on SNL. She came back strong on Letterman, but haters are pissed that she A) changed her name (SHOCKING! NO OTHER CELEB HAS EVER DONE THAT!) and B) might have undergone plastic surgery (TO WHICH I SAY ‘NICE WORK, DOC!’). The… Click to read more

Jimmy Kimmel tapes his show in the heart of Hollywood. Outside his theater on Hollywood Blvd there are a collection of characters who gather outside to take pictures with tourists.

Today, February 5, is National Weatherman’s Day. Not really sure why/if weathermen deserve their own day, but apparently the guy who gives days out deems it necessary for weathermen to have an entire day dedicated to their work. Granted, their job is very difficult and way over my head, but should we really be honoring a group of people who are wrong a hu… Click to read more

I know the majority of Simpsons “fans” don’t watch The Simpsons anymore, but the a cappella cover of the show’s theme song is pretty boss. I’m honestly surprised no one’s decided to tackle it up until now. A lot of you might wonder what my recent a cappella kick is all about – I don’t know maybe I’m jus… Click to read more

There are two anthems making waves online today – the first is from Depo, produced by Fotsbeats and came to us via Minority Sports Report, and the other comes from Trubz ‘n’ Matlock and was produced by Digital Media Services at Murray State University. I was going to pit “We Are Mizzou” against Murray State but that sh*t was pr… Click to read more

An estimated 100 million viewers will tune into the Super Bowl this year as the Patriots try to exact revenge on the team that cost them a perfect season in ’07-’08.

Throughout the history of the National Basketball Association, there have been moments that are etched in the minds of fans from Magic’s baby hook, Larry Bird’s steal against the Pistons, and Michael Jordan’s game winner against the Utah Jazz. These 15 moments aren’t exactly from that class, they’re the ones  deemed strange and/or bizarre.

Watch the combatants then vote in our poll after the jump.

2011 was a great year for music. Multiple genres – from indie rock to rap to pop to country – all had huge years. We saw the emergence of brand new power players (Adele, LMFAO), consistency from the staples (Kayne West, Rihanna, Lady Antebellum, Foo Fighters), solid debuts from important breakthrough artists, (Foster the People, Frank Ocean) and quality sophomore releases from breaking stars (Bon Iver, Drake). We got introduced to Spotify and the cloud. Music even brought an influx of reality TV shows all geared towards finding the next best thing in music (X-Factor, The Voice, American Idol).

Contrary to non-existent belief, The Misunderstoods are NOT a crazy hot up-and-coming band from London who shag on stage at gigs. They’re a comedy group that forms like Voltron to tickle the sh*t out of your funny bone. I personally know two of its members (M. Covino, R. Nivakoff) and I’m forced to wear diapers when we hang out. Anyway, they’ve produced a commercial for Doritos “Crash the Super Bowl” contest. To prep you for the lolz, check out their funniest skits then vote after the jump.
