Someone Shut Joe Jackson Up

Filed under: Michael Jackson

wenn-joe-jackson.jpg

Here's your face palm moment of the day!

So you know that record label Joe Jackson recently and perhaps a little inappropriately announced (more than once)?!

Yeah, turns out someone already got first dibs on Ranch Record and it turns out that Joe didn't do his homework.

Dixon Shanks, who really owns Ranch Record, said that he's been flooded with inquiries since Jackson's announcement and had to go online to find out why.

And while Shanks acknowledges Michael Jackson's contribution to music, he said he plans on keeping Ranch Record for himself since, after all, he was there first.

No comment from Joe Jackson. And it should stay that way!

Details On The Death Of David Carradine, Accidental Asphyxiation

Filed under: R.I.P.

ap-kung-fu-dude1-12__opt1.jpg

It was concluded that the cause of David Carradine's death several weeks ago was due to "accidental asphyxiation", or the inability to breathe.

The medical examiner stated he was certain of his findings, but admitted they still had not figure out why: "[W]hy that happened is still what we're working on."

However, Dr. Michael Baden knows he can rule out suicide as the cause of Carradine's death.

"He didn't die of natural causes, and he didn't die of suicidal causes from the nature of the ligatures around the body, so that leaves some kind of accidental death," says the doc.

Though the doctors findings did rule out suicide, they do not rule out the possibility that the asphyxiation could have been "auto erotic", or brought on by sexual activity.

We're sure, for the family, on some level, it's nice to have some more information on his passing and know that he didn't take his own life.

It Is Free! Michael Jackson's Funeral Open To Public, Free Of Charge!

Filed under: Michael Jackson

wenn-mjglove.jpg

As arrangements are being ironed out for the final farewell for Michael Jackson, we're happy to report for fans of the King of Pop that the funeral proceedings at the Staples Center in Los Angeles won't cost fans anything to attend.

The promoter announced this morning that "there will not be a charge for tickets" and that more details will become available later on in the day.

We're very glad to hear that the family is not looking to profit off of Michael's death, but we also know this is going to be a logistical nightmare! There is only 20,000 seats in Staples Center and way more fans than could ever be counted.

This is sure to be interesting.

The Queen Continues To Waste British Taxpayer Money

Filed under: Anglophilia > Royals Royce

wenn-queene.jpg

What a complete and utter waste of taxpayers' money.

Back in the 12th century, the royal family began a tradition known as Swan Upping, where all the swans on the River Thames were counted. Back then, it was to know how many birds they had to eat that year!

900 years later, if you are looking for some wings, you can just head to KFC, but her majesty, Queen Elizabeth, thinks that the tradition is still relevant. And so, it will be some guys' jobs to row up the Thames for five days and count, weigh, and measure swans and cygnets.

Talk about a shitty job!

They get a spiffy names, though- Swan Marker & Swan Warden.

Bet their moms are super proud!

This year, Queen Elizabeth has decided to join them for part of the census and visit a local school who is doing project on the subject of swans, cygnets and the Thames.

Guess there isn't much for the Queen to be doing these days if she has time for this crap!

Quote of the Day

Filed under: Taylor Swift

a0701-taylor-swift-cover_at.jpg

"Some people get freaked out by huge displays of emotion from fans, but I like criers and people who come up to me bawling and screaming. Hearing a crowd scream is the coolest sound in the world. It can motivate me to do anything."

Kanye West, The Intern!

Filed under: Kanye West

wenn-kaney816.jpg

With his kicks on the back burner and no talk of any new music coming out, Kanye West has some free time on his hands. Clearly not stimulated enough, a source tells Us Weekly that Kanye has been folding T-shirts interning at the Gap offices in NYC to learn about the fashion industry.

The source says: "He works all the time, and one Friday night recently he stayed until 12 a.m.! He is learning the fashion business from the inside and trying to do it quietly."

So much for that.

It doesn't matter anyway; this is such a sham! We're sure he gets all kinds of preferential treatment. No chance he goes for coffee runs or makes copies. In fact, we'd bet money the only grunt work he is doing happens when he gets home to his GF Amber!

Rupert Grint Crushing On Emma Watson

Filed under: Anglophilia > Harry Potter > Emma Watson > Rupert Grint

wenn-grint.jpg

No big surprise: Rupert Grint admits he has a thing for his Harry Potter co-star, Emma Watson. Not Dan Rad!

Maybe he is a method actor.

More likely he is a horny young man!

With the newest flick on its way to theaters, Rupert is being interviewed all over the place. He was asked about his relationship with Emma and how he feels about their upcoming on-screen romance.

His reply: “A lot of people think there’s something going on [between me and Emma Watson] because I have to kiss her on film soon. I’ll be honest with you: it’s not something I’d say I’m dreading. Emma’s a pretty girl. Have Daniel or I ever hit on Emma? Well, she’s quite popular with the cast. As for who has the worst crush on her – me or Radcliffe – I’d rather not say.”

So both Harry and Ron are aiming to get into Hermione's pants? That's something you won't read in any J.K. Rowling novel! But who will win? We've seen what Daniel Radcliffe has to offer, so we won't make any judgements until Rupert does the same.
