I stumbled upon this while looking up articles re: Brittany Murphy. (R.I.P.) the mostly failtastic list, complete with unflattering Photoshop-free photos, made me laugh so I figured I'd share with ONTD to brighten this sad Sunday afternoon.

Lil Bow Wow thinks she's a better role model than Nicki Minaj



Once the new female MC on the block, Lil Mama has something to say about hip-hop femcee du jour: Nicki Minaj.

When asked to share her thoughts on Young Money’s first lady, the Brooklyn rapstress gave kudos to Nicki before pointing to a glaring difference in their images and content.

“Nicki Minaj is a talented rapper,” Lil Mama said. “She’s out there, she’s doing her. What she represents, I don’t represent and she’s doing something different, that’s her lane. As the voice of the young people, Lil Mama, I focus on bringing up young girls to respect their bodies, respect theyself, do it up.”

Lil Mama is reportedly in the lab working on her sophomore album. Click here to see BET.com's exclusive interview with Nicki Minaj.

Nicki Minaj may have a sexy image, but she consistently encourages her fans of all ages to educate themselves, be self sufficient and not be dependent on men:Proof )
It would be nice to live in a world where dressing provocatively & talking about your sexuality =/= disrespecting your body/encouraging others to do so. Backhanded girl-on-girl crime is so old.

Death of American Idol / US X Factor mega post



There's been a lot of confusion as to what's happening with American Idol and Simon Cowell after 2009, and if the X Factor is really being made in the US, so I decided to round up all the latest news/rumors on the future of American Idol, which network is trying to land the rights to the X Factor, where it'll be, when it's going to air, who's going to judge on which show, blah blah blah... )

Frankie Boyle lays into celebrity memoirs as his own is a surprise hit

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Comedian Frankie Boyle berates publishers for producing 'crap' celebrity memoirs. Meanwhile his own is a bestseller

Rebecca Adlington, Kerry Katona, Susan Boyle and the Queen can all breathe sighs of relief. Frankie Boyle (no relation to Susan) has a new target: publishers. The Glaswegian comedian has attacked them for creating a degraded books market teeming with celebrity memoirs – which may seem a bit rich given that he's just written one of his own.

"I never really followed publishing until I wrote this book," said Boyle over coffee in the bar of his posh hotel in Covent Garden, "but what strikes me is there aren't many publishers you'd confuse with leading philosophical thinkers of the day.

"Right now if you read the Bookseller there are publishers moaning about how terrible celebrity biographies now are. How they're all badly written and say nothing. It's a fair point, but don't they realise that they're responsible for creating this toxic gene? They're the ones who have been putting out any old crap – and now they're complaining?

"Maybe if they came up with better ideas for books or they told some celebrities who want to write their memoirs to fuck off now and again, I might have more respect for their argument."

Rage Against the Machine take Christmas No.1 slot





Rock band Rage Against the Machine ended Simon Cowell’s four year domination of the Christmas charts tonight after a hugely popular Facebook campaign helped the Los Angeles nu-metallers snatch the Christmas number one slot from X-factor’s Joe McEdlerry.

More than half a million people downloaded the band’s famously anti-authoritarian and expletive laden track “Killing in the Name” in what was seen as a broad protest against the increasing influence of manufactured pop music.

It is the first time a non-X-Factor song has made it to Christmas number one for four years and represents a major snub to the show’s creator Cowell who angrily described the campaign to him another number one slot as “very Scrooge”.

Katherine Heigl saves more Chihuahuas

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

On December 2nd,2009, 25 Chihuahuas rescued from Los Angeles animal shelters boarded an American Airlines Flight and quickly found new homes in New Hampshire. The maiden flight program was so successful that a second batch of 43 Chihuahuas are now ready to receive their boarding pass to the New England State, once again thanks to Katherine's generosity. Laurel Kinder, founded the Project Flying Chihuahuas program and successfully obtained sufficient funding to fly a second batch of the cute little dogs for a one way journey to a New Hampshire Humane Society where they will find warm, loving homes.

"My passion has always been focused on finding a solution to the thousands of Chihuahuas that get funneled into LA shelters," stated Ms. Kinder, a rescuer for more than 15 years. "We are grateful to actress Katherine Heigl for her compassionate donation to fund their flight and change their plight. We hope other charitable foundations will step forward to help support this humane endeavor."


Katherine has funded the flight of all 68 pups via her non-profit animal welfare organization, The Jason Heigl Foundation, which she founded with her mother Nancy in memory of her brother Jason who was killed in a car accident in 1986.
