That’s right, you’re looking at hip-hop producer, fashionista Pharrell with equally clothes-conscious Kanye West at a recent fashion even this past week. Here’s a photo of Pharrell just one month ago (third one down). Like Rick James said…
Everyone loves Major Larry and the undisputed greatest song of this new decade, “Pants on the Ground.” We’ve all seen Brett Favre’s funny but pathetic version. This one comes from the heart of Carolina Panthers RB DeAngelo Williams, and is definitely a little more flushed out. If you’re blogsessed, check out this Pants on the Ground game courtesy TMZ, so devilishly difficult and addicting it’s potentially harmful to unknown forearm muscles.
The Sun UK is reporting that American Idol, X-Factor mega-mogul Simon Cowell has extended Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson an open ended offer (read: BLANK CHECK) to sign a record deal. Pretty simple: something like this isn’t too far fetched. Simon knows where the money is, and where the KOOLs are. (Speaking of Kool, check out House chillin’ in the background).
In an apparent final insult, TMZ is reporting that at a Guns n Roses concert in Canada this past Wednesday, security personnel informed fans they were “required to turn their Slash t-shirts inside out …. and leave their top hats outside.”
Up just 2 points against the reigning NBA champion Lakers, with just under 24 seconds left, how does King James pump himself up and steel his own nerves? Why, rapping the lead track to his upcoming biopic of course. And yes, he got the victory.
Last night’s star-studded Hope for Haiti telethon raised an estimated minimum of $58 million, a preliminary figure that does not include donations from large corporations or private donors, according to CNN. Celebrities Leonardo DiCaprio and supercouple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have donated $1 million respectively, as have professional sports leagues Major League Baseball and NBA. Boxing promotor Top Rank, who represent such stars of the sport as Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto, has pledged $1 off every ticket in 2010 will go to the Haiti relief effort.
Michael Jackson.com has posted information for anybody “wishing to send MJ a card or gift for Valentine’s Day (or for any other reason), we will be happy to take them to him and have Security place them inside Holly Terrace.” They even give you a mailing address. Haiti might need the donations a bit more right now.
Conan O’Brien’s seven-month run as host of The Tonight Show ended last night. The first guest Tom Hanks walked out to the band playing The Beatles classic “Lovely Rita,” an ode to his wife Rita Wilson, which reportedly cost NBC a cool $500,000. Other guests included Neil Young, Max Weinberg, Steve Carrell, and Will Ferrell. We would post the youtube clip of Will Ferrell leading a Coco-joined rendition of Free Bird, but NBC would have us take it down.
For the first time since a freak bus accident left him with an injured spleen and punctured lung back on Dec 6th, Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo was back on stage performing at Florida State University in Tallahassee, FL on Wednesday Jan 20. Thanks to Punknews.org for this one. Good to see Rivers back in action, we’ll attribute the Paramore presence to the painkillers.
When tallies and tabulations are complete, Eminem is expected to move 650,000 units of his new record Relapse in its first week of release. We always wondered the secret to the Platinum Don’s success… until now. Marshall Mathers was a hardcore Alf fan. <— Do yourself a favor.
Nine Inch Nails have always sucked, that’s why their music hasn’t been popular since 1995. But Trent Reznor has a Twitter account, and like Ashton Kutcher and John Mayer before him, just constantly talk about themselves (or nothing) to stay current in some sort of medium. Well, he crossed the line. You don’t insult Weezer and Rivers Cuomo, not on Blogsessed’s watch. Here’s a picture of Trent Reznor and his transexual fiance. Fucl< You trent, you pasty face no-talent transexual fucl<er. You shoulda killed yourself in 1994 after Downward Spiral.
Lance Armstrong reveals the cause of his breakup with singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow in his new autobiography, Lance. The 7-time Tour de France winner claims that while she wanted babies – he did not. In the end, Sheryl adopted in May 2007, and whaddya know, Lance’s girlfriend is due next month.
And the number one guitar soloist on Blogsessed list of the top 5 goes to the man who can levitate from the ocean: Saul Hudson… Err, SLASH! No one quite compares to the maestro of 80’s “face melting” rock/metal. He even made Idol interesting to watch, which is hard to do after they’ve weeded out all the hilariously bad singers. Speaking of which, Blogsessed call tonight is Adam Lambert in a second song TKO over Kris Allen.
Britney Spears has her sights set on purchasing a $20,000 oxygen chamber in an effort to preserve her gorgeous “voice.” In related news, MiniMe Verne Troyer purcahsed an $10 bottle of Smirnoff to forget how short he is.
Honesty is sometimes the best policy. Someone recently suggested the obvious to Lily Allen: she needs some boobies if she wants to be a pop starlet in America. We agree. Boobs rule. It’s like telling Hugh Jackman he needs to get really buff and strong, and chicks will dig him universally… wait, he did that. Your move Lily.
