Mike Adams — Wed, 31 Oct 2012 21:03:03 +0000

Mad scientists have been hard at work trying to develop a sex-drive-enhancement drug for women ever since those wily old coots emerged nearly 15 years ago with a little blue pill called Viagra. Interestingly enough, it appears as if science is no match for men dedicated to breeding a society full of hornier women, because those fiends have done it.

Jessica Sager — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 03:30:27 +0000

To say we were excited for Kesha‘s new single, ‘Die Young,’ would be an understatement. It’s been two years since we heard new music from the whiskey enthusiast, and it’s been well worth the wait.

Jessica Sager — Sun, 05 Aug 2012 22:19:06 +0000

Drake released his first track with the late Aaliyah, ‘Enough Said.’ How does it fare? Probably better than most people expected. “Can’t you talk to me? / Tell me what you need,” Aaliyah pleads over a soft, somewhat minimalist beat. Yes, Drizzy can.

Amy Sciarretto — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 00:30:29 +0000

There is merely one week until ‘Believe’ lands. We know, Beliebers, we know. It’s an eternity and cruel and unusual punishment to have to wait one second more for Justin Bieber‘s new album to drop. We’re right there with you, bursting with anticipation. Luckily for the Belieber nation, the new song ‘As Long As You Love’ me featuring Big Sean has dropped. The good news? It sounds nothing like ‘Boyfriend’ or ‘Die In Your Arms’ or ‘All Around the World.’ It’s unique and different unto itself. The bad news? There is no bad news, unless you are a Belieber who had to wait for the song to drop on iTunes.

The Biebs goes acoustic! In ‘Turn to You,’ his tribute song to his mother Pattie Mallette, the proceeds of which will be donated to a mom-centric charity, Justin Bieber is at his most butter smooth and his best.

Jo Pincushion — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:45:56 +0000

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years, you recognize ‘The Situation’ from MTV’s hit reality show ‘Jersey Shore.’ ‘The Situation’ done endorsements for Devotion Vodka, Reebok Zigtech and a vitamin line for GNC. It was only a matter of time before ‘The Situation’ did his own workout videos, especially because he built a brand on his abs, and what better place to have ‘The Situation Workout‘ than on Netflix Streaming.

A couple weeks ago I blogged about the “I Am T Pain” microphone commercial on Nickelodeon. Today, I’m doing the same, but about the “Doggie Doo” game.
