He seems to think so. “They’re sending me scripts,” Slim told us last night at the taping of VH1’s Hip Hop Honors, which airs June 7. “I got a movie booked already; they’re paying me and everything. It’s crazy!" Slim said the project is through Lionsgate, but was, well, hazy on other details. “I forgot the name of the movie; they just gave me the script. I didn’t even look at the other people who are in it, man. I just got it, like, yesterday.” In any case, the Houston-based rapper plans on taking some acting lessons. “I don’t believe I have acting skills, you know ...

(Basically, it tells you at any time how far away you are — in feet! — from the possibility of gay sex.) The Washington Examiner had the brilliant idea of wandering around the nation's capital to various seats of power and seeing how the application responded. Naturally, in all of them, gay men were ready and waiting:

While Hutchinson screamed and danced — often jumping offstage to interact with the decent-size audience — Kershaw was crouched down on the side of the stage, wearing tight jeans and an enormous white button-up, chalk sketching on an artist's pad with fervor. She didn't play tambourine, as advertised, until about halfway through the set; but when she did, in all sincerity, boy can that girl play tambourine while casually dancing. Like, we weren't previously aware that anyone could make tambourine playing while casually dancing look as effortlessly awesome — and somehow almost vital to the whole performance — as this girl. With her stylishly wild mane of hair, she just sort of nodded her head, moved her small hips, and hit the instrument in beat with the band. It was adorable. After the show, Kershaw was caked in red chalk from her sketching, and she told us she always tries to sketch while her man plays live. The artwork she shyly showed us was a sort of abstract and raw sketch of nothing in particular, looking something like this. We weren't allowed to photograph the work, however, because Our Mountain plans to use it for their upcoming album cover. Kershaw seemed tired from her trancelike drawing and sexy tambourine playing and, endearingly, before walking away asked us, "How's my hair?" Obviously, it was perfectly distressed.

Source: Entertainment - Google News | 4 Jun 2010 | 3:27 pm Journal Icily Responds to Times’ Cease-and-Desist Letter Earlier today, Times CEO Janet Robinson made the point to publicly announce that the Journal, with its "Greater New York" section launched just a month ago, has not yet cut into Times circulation. "We are definitely not seeing any effect in regard to the circulation," she told Bloomberg. "Are they discounting? Yes, they are, very, very heavily," she added, noting that the Times has not changed advertising rates, while the Journal has offered steep discounts. "If they’d like to leave those dollars on the table and give free advertising, we’re more than happy to clean them up." Sounds like the Journal's little local assault isn't getting to the Times! Except yesterday's kerfuffle over text the Journal copied from an ad in the Times and used for its own anti-Times ad might suggest otherwise. The cease-and-desist letter the Times sent was relatively stern, with lawyers threatening "to pursue all available legal remedies." But the response that the Journal sent today was not nearly as serious. "We half expected to hear from you," wrote marketing SVP Jennifer Jehn. "The other half thought you might have more important things to worry about." Yikes! After some more snide comments, Jehn continues, "I won't belabor your legal claim. Our lawyers tell us that we were within our rights to use the tag line to compare our two offerings." And: "We think we've made our point. And to get a rise out of you is just a special bonus." So ... basically they kind of said exactly what we suggested they say! The Times was not amused. "Actually," a spokeswoman e-mailed to us, "we don’t think theft of intellectual property is a joke."

Source: E! Online (US) - Top Stories | 4 Jun 2010 | 2:20 pm Drew Pinsky Talks in Ways Unbecoming of a Doctor We have a proposal: Let's all get together and agree not to call Drew Pinsky, the man who presides over the treatment of sad people on reality shows like Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew, Sex Rehab With Dr. Drew, and Celebrity Rehab Presents Sober House, Dr. Drew. That name is just too short to do this man justice. When we say "Dr. Drew," what we really mean is, "Dr. We Would Never Want Anyone We Love to Go to Drew" or "Dr. With Questionable Ethics Drew." Unfortunately, these titles are too long and awkward to use regularly, as is his more proper title: Drew Pinsky, Reality-TV Star. In the interest of brevity, then, perhaps we could all agree to call him Actor Drew, which we can abbreviate to Ar. Drew as we see fit. Ar. Drew just participated in a roundtable interview with other "reality stars" for The Hollywood Reporter. In this piece, it was revealed that the Jersey Shore house is like a "herpes nest," and also that Ar. Drew remains inexplicably, exasperatingly, unbearably smug. Please do not enjoy the following quotes. In which Ar. Drew does not seem to realize that if he were really behaving responsibly with respect to his patients' good care, he would probably not let them, mentally unstable addicts all, appear on reality television:
In which Ar. Drew overtheorizes so we don't notice that buyers and the health and welfare of his patients are of equal concern to him:

Source: Vulture | 4 Jun 2010 | 2:15 pm Filmmaker Gets Into The Pit Four years ago, Korean-American filmmaker Johanna Lee boldly ventured into a realm where few women dare to go: the New York Board of Trade, the physical commodity-futures exchange in the belly of the World Financial Center. For six months, Lee toiled as a point clerk on NYBOT’s trading floor, an area called “the pit," where she turned her unprecedented access to a motley crew of coffee traders into a documentary, The Pit, which chronicles the last days of the traditional practice of open-outcry trading, in which traders yell, scream, and jostle as they make and lose fortunes. (In March 2008, the Board replaced the practice with electronic transactions). Lee spoke with Daily Intel about working on the floor and about the film, which makes its area debut this Sunday at the Hoboken International Film Festival Did the trading floor and the traders seem like an obvious subject for a documentary to you? Traders in the film describe open-outcry trading as “organized chaos,” but it looks like chaotic chaos. Were you intimidated at all when you started working as a point clerk? Did you eventually get comfortable being there? What motivates the traders in the film — greed, ego, a McMansion on Long Island? One trader in the film said that his job often caused him to feel like he was stealing. Is that a common perception among traders? Several traders in the film say success in commodities trading requires “street smarts.” Is this still true in the new age of electronic trading?

All that great stuff, that darkness that we repress — it’s nice to be able to release it once in a while. It was very therapeutic." But Long pointed out that he didn't identify with every aspect of his character. "There were parts about certain … well, acts that men supposedly don’t like performing on women that I have very strong feelings against. I would very much argue the opposite." So come on, everybody — give Drew Barrymore some credit. Read more posts by Rachel Corbett Filed Under: party chat, justin long, neil labute, people, theater

Source: Vulture | 4 Jun 2010 | 1:50 pm Socially Conscious Oil Spill Art!!I don’t mean to bum you guys out on a Friday, but it’s time for an oil spill post. Don’t worry though, it’s a visual art oil spill post!! Yeah, this ain’t you’re cousin’s blog! Your cousin has the worst blog. Anyway. To be honest, I don’t “get” a lot of art. I used to work in an art museum and I was all, “I don’t get it, guys.” I think I lack whatever brain part let’s you look at a thing of art and get it. But I do get these following things and I think they are clever.
I’m actually not even really sure this is art. Does photo-shopping count? I can never tell; I’m an idiot. When I worked in the museum I used to refer to this painting as the “Gay Horsey Chagall.” (I pronounced Chagall with a hard “ch” sound and said it as though it rhymed with bagel.) Source: Best Week Ever | 4 Jun 2010 | 1:47 pm Spill Cap Has Started Collecting Some, But Not Much, Oil At the moment, the cap that BP placed over the leaking oil pipe 5,000 feet under the Gulf of Mexico is capturing oil at an estimated rate of 1,000 gallons a day. That's only a small portion of the estimated 20,000 gallons that are currently ejected from the earth each day — but the current rate was selected deliberately. Vents are letting most of the oil escape in order to prevent too much water from creeping into the tube and interfering with the transfer of the oil up to waiting ships on the surface. Those vents are scheduled to be closed later today. "Progress is being made," said Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen, who is overseeing the federal side of the disaster response. But, he added, in view of all that's gone wrong before, “I think we have to caution against over-optimism here.” Once the vents are closed, we'll know better how firm the seal is between the cap and the sheared pipe, and whether that seal will keep out enough cold water to allow a smooth transferal of oil to the surface. The below video has been floating around the Internet since yesterday. It depicts one potential model of how the oil could escape the Gulf and how it would affect the American coast near the Gulf Stream. It was produced by the National Center for Atmospheric Research and comes with a number of caveats. ("The simulations are not a forecast because it is impossible to accurately predict the precise location of the oil weeks or months from now. Instead, the simulations provide an envelope of possible scenarios for the oil dispersal.") Still, it's chilling to see how far and fast the oil could spread, and we're already chilled enough by what it's done so far.

Source: FOXNews.com | 4 Jun 2010 | 1:10 pm First Enormous Batch of Clinton-Era Elena Kagan Documents Goes Online The Clinton Library dumped 46,000 pages of documents related to Elena Kagan's time as an associate White House counsel and domestic-policy adviser onto the Internet today for Republicans, the media, and anyone else who is interested to rummage through. Since Kagan has no history as a judge, her e-mails and memos from her time in the White House will likely become an important part of confirmation hearings. So far, the Associated Press finds a "pragmatic streak" in dealing with Big Tobacco and CNN sees a "sensible approach" to late-term abortions. There's a lot of data to sift, and an additional 114,000 or so more pages yet to be released, so hopefully some more-interesting insights into Kagan's beliefs will be discovered in time.

Because a certain sexy Brazilian brunette who had a baby six months ago has been on maternity leave. But VS just started taking pictures of Adriana Lima in bras and panties again, so all those off feelings shall soon be righted. But Adriana does not feel quite right about her body yet. She admits she has been jumping rope and boxing to lose the post-baby weight, along with switching between juice cleanses and a high-protein diet — all those things Gisele didn't have to bother with. But Adriana tells E!, "I am not at the point where I am happy yet but I am working on it and soon I will be where I like to be." It is so saddening that even the world's most beautiful women always seem to feel this way. We thought Adriana looked outstanding in the fall 2010 Louis Vuitton show just how she was.

Source: Daily Intel | 4 Jun 2010 | 12:14 pm 10 Reasons Americans Should Be Obsessed with Eurovision
Eurovision 2010. In a year when our American Idol Season sucked the giantest of balls, I almost started forgetting what real performance — nay, zazz – looked and sounded like. Eurovision… it brought that zazz. IN SPADES. For those unfamiliar with the cannonball of showmanship that is Eurovision, a quick explanation: 39 European countries individually choose their national entry, an original song performed by a citizen of that country. These performances go head to head, whittled down from the original 39 to the Top 25, which compete against one another in the finale. Unlike American Idol, these performances can utilize dancers, showmanship, fireworks, insane costumes… anything goes at Eurovision. Finally, each country awards points, from 1 to 12, to their favorites. A sort of meaningless, synthesized electoral college. Then, a winner is crowned. To my American counterparts, it pains me to tell you how entertaining this show is. Beyond anything we have here in the States. It is at times heartbreakingly beautiful, at times grotesquely terrible, at 95 percent of the time, delightfully Eastern European. So without further ado, I would like to give you 10 Reasons Americans Should Be Obsessed with Eurovision: 10. Wanna Become a Celebrity? Move to Serbia! In my fantasy of entering Eurovision — which I’m working on — I want to make sure to move to a country that will learn to appreciate my gift. The answer there is Serbia. Just look at Milan Stankovic (his real name, my porn name). If he can make it there, he’ll make it only-in-Serbia-where. Tyra Banks, find this man, and make him an ANTM staple. 9. Germany’s Ke$ha is WAY MORE ANNOYING Than Our Ke$ha. Those of you still not “over” WWII, good news! Germany has been plagued with singer so annoying you will wish you were listening to Ke$ha’s “Your Love Is My Drug.” (Ed. Note: A song I like, so grain of salt, meet kettle.) This is Lena. She’s the Kat Von D of Eurovision. She sings a song called “Satellite,” which was a #1 hit in Germany. Did we say sing? No, she sort of speaks it, while crooked-legging her way across the stage like so many Myspace photoshoots. Lena seems sweet enough, but folks, THIS SONG WON EUROVISION. Yes, it won. And when you compare this to some of the delectable Eastern European entries ahead, well, that sh*t ain’t right son. 8. Does American Idol Have Butterfly Wings That Pop Out of People’s Costumes? No. But Belarus does. 7. There Is No Shortage of Giant Fans. While this could also be a play on words for myself personally, here I mean it in a literal sense. Eurovision has a TON of giant fans. Also, men with chiffon wings and bouffants. 6. Eastern European Hipsters are Adorable Romantics. Also, Freezing. Russia’s entry was a young man named Peter Nalitch, a shaggy haired fellow who is heartbroken over his lost love. And he lets us know in the most over-the-top heartbreaker of Eurovision 2010. The song is called “Lost And Forgotten,” featured scarves, giant fans, HILARIOUS PHOTO PROPS, and tenderness. So much tenderness. 5. Greece is the Time, is the Place, is the Motion. Greece is the Way We Are Feelin. Giorgos Alkaios was robbed. The country of Greece… was robbed. “Opa,” Greece’s entry, had everything we love in a continental music sensation: Hot men synchronized dancing and the word “Opa” being repeated ad nauseum. 4. Hot Women Can Make “Apricot Stone” a Twitter Trending Topic. I believed her every word, more than anything I heard These brilliant lyrics come to us courtesy of Armenia, who proved that breast implants have indeed made their way out East. Eva Rivas is Armenia’s Maxim cover worthy entrant, singing a song called “Apricot Stone,” no doubt Armenia’s national fruit. No double meaning there, it really is a song about apricot stone. If you’re not already completely sold on this gypsy festival, perhaps a fat man playing the fife and a giant, papier-mached APRICOT STONE set piece will do the trick? It did for us. 3. Lucite Pianos. Have you ever seen lucite pianos in America? Us neeths. You know who has? The entire country of Romania/continent of Europe. Another one of our favorites. 2. Eurovision is the Only Competition with Songs Featuring Justin Guarini Lookalikes, Clowns, and Stage Crashers. Also, crazy clowns noooooo. 1. Denmark’s Version of “A Moment Like This” Beats Kelly Clarkson’s. Let it be known I love ABBA and cheesy sh*t. So this entry by Denmark, performed by Chanée & N’evergreen, planted its earworm firmly in my skull for days afterwards. America, we need to make this a hit so that I may have the great privilege of singing this at karaoke. America, get wise. Eurovision is the future. Campaign your local cable companies and governments to carry this extravaganza on cable in 2011. Source: Best Week Ever | 4 Jun 2010 | 11:55 am Foreigners Are Ravenous for Abercrombie Shoppers in the U.K. Abercrombie is doing better in the U.S than they have in years. Their losses have slowed dramatically, and the company reported a 3 percent rise in same-store sales for the first quarter. Things are looking okay for May, too, in the U.S — and positively ridiculously good overseas, according to The Wall Street Journal: Figures issued Thursday showed May's domestic sales rose just 1%, while international revenue jumped 84%. With the overseas business generating nearly a fifth of revenue, total company sales rose a healthy 10%.
Holding onto Abercrombie shares in the hope U.S. sales will eventually revive would be brave. With rare exceptions, such as Victoria's Secret and Gap, most specialty retailers from 20 years ago have given way to new rivals. At 21 times this year's earnings, Abercrombie shares are ready to fade.

Source: The Cut | 4 Jun 2010 | 11:50 am Here’s The $#*! My Dad Says Trailer. Sitcoms Still Exist.Ask any rock historian or friend of yours who gets high and talks about music in sentences just barely not long enough for you to sneak a nap into about how many bands “changed everything.” They’ll rattle off Elvis, The Stones, The Velvet Underground, The Sex Pistols, Nirvana — dozens of bands are credited with overblown, conveniently vague characterizations as though music sucked before they came along, then they changed everything, and people wouldn’t stand for crappy music any longer. In reality, these bands indeed changed a lot of things for a lot of people (sentence not vague enough, sorry), but mediocrity is a force more powerful and more omnipresent than any remotely artful movement, and crappy music, like crappy all-other-forms of art, remains as prevalent as ever to this day. Likewise, in the television landscape, Seinfeld happened. Arrested Development happened. Modern Family is still happening, and is a hit show on a mainstream network. And yet, in flagrant defiance of what we would all love to believe is a changed television landscape with an ever-so-slightly raised bar, here comes $#*! My Dad Says. Is it worse than most other standard sitcoms, like Two And A Half Men? No. But is it slightly disheartening that tv shows continue to get made with an astonishing disregard for the fact that we’ve seen them literally hundreds of times before in the past? I guess it would be, if we weren’t so used to it. Here’s The $#*! My Dad Says trailer. The two best parts? The touching moment at 1:46, and the announcer actually saying “Bleep My Dad Says!” So I guess I did laugh twice, technically – I take back everything above.
