Justin Bieber "Crotch Pancake"

A Crotch Pancake Please...
Justin Bieber Style!

Remember when Lindsay Lohan was dubbed a "Fire Crotch" in the press? Well you are now free to call Justin Bieber a "Crotch Pancake" I am guessing, based on one of the more odd items to have been reported of late.

This piece by artist Dan Lacey was purchased by none other than rapper, Macklemore. Yep, Macklemore got himself some Justin Bieber peen on his wall! 

The creative mind behind the art was unaware that the Thrift Shop hitmaker had bought it. Here is what Mr. Lacey told Vulture:

“To me, pancakes happen at a spiritual level, sometimes expressing themselves as eroticism. My only problem with this is that the pancake keeps being described as “resting on Bieber’s erect penis," when it obviously has replaced the penis entirely. The pancake is the penis. I’d actually let Bieber put it in me."

There you have it, oh and for the record I would not let Justin put it in me, but I would bridle him in and...fluff up your pillow and dream, people.
Happy Monday and have a terrific week!

"Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night!" - Bette Davis as Margo Channing in All About Eve

That's right MTV's Video Music Awards are on tonight with Our Lady of Cyrus, Miley hosting. So that means anything can happen when she hits the stage and as you know, anything will!

Executive producers have been proactive and prepared a delay for her and lots of wide shots for audience reactions. Way to work those ratings people!

With live performances by Nicki Minaj, Macklemore, Pharrell Williams, Tori Kelly and many more planned it is a music lovers buffet.

Aside from the hostess with the mostess, or is it host with the most, sorry Miley I know you have stated you feel more like a guy than a girl in the past...the other wild card of the evening will be the coming of Yeezus!

That's correct, Kanye West will be accepting the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, prepare thyself. 

Here's hoping Taylor Swift makes an appearance during that moment and there's no Bad Blood!

Tune in or be square to the MTV Video Music Awards tonight at 9/8c on MTV, duh!

Macklemore Gets Trashy With Oscar The Grouch

Let's Get Trashy: Macklemore & Oscar The Grouch

Macklemore dropped the phrase "F@#king awesome" replaced it with "Gross and awesome" and found himself some Sesame Street cred with his hit song Thrift Shop.

The rapper joined forces with Oscar the Grouch and created an all audiences version of it, but instead of searching for vintage clothing, they comb trash cans for the grossest, yuck ball garbage they can find!

One man's trash is another grouches outfit - looks like Macklemore found his way to Sesame Street, and may return for a visit since his fiancee Tricia Davis is expecting their first viewer soon.

Have some trashy fun below...!

Pentatonix preparing for World Domination

"Here we go back, this is the moment

Tonight is the night, well fight till its over

So we put our hands up like the ceiling can't hold us"

- Macklemore

The ceiling certainly can't hold Pentatnoix, thus this is the prefect song to kick off their latest EP "PTX Volume 2".

Yes, that's right after taking a trip to Macklemore's "Thrift Shop" the PTX gang kick it again with another song by the Rap God "Can't Hold Us".

With their huge success in the United States the gang is currently embarking on a European takeover as well.

Tom Goss Loves "Bears"

Tom Goss has been quite prolific of late with his music and videos. Starting with showing his clock in the innovative video for his too cool for school song "Make Believe" he then followed that up with a cover and a very hip, minimalist video of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis's "Can't Hold Us".

Today, yes today, is the official release of Tom's latest video which is bound to be equally as big, literally and figuratively as it predecessors "Bears". Yes, it is an ode to all things Bear and why they are Hot! Tom himself is a big bear lover and has a Husbear all his own, Michael Briggs. 

To celebrate the release of the video Tom gave me five things he likes about these furry dudes...Hey Tom go for it!

Tom Goss

Tom: 

1. Bellies 

2. Beards 

3. Burliness 

4. Buoyant Exuberance 

5. Laid Back Attitude 

Without further adieu, here is the hot new video for Tom's song "Bears" Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...!

Tom Goss + Macklemore & Ryan Lewis = "Can't Hold Us"

Tom Goss

Performer/Songwriter/Musician Tom Goss is back! After causing quite the stir with a strategically placed clock in the video for his last song "Make Believe"

Jump to that here! http://mshinafelt.blogspot.com/2012/11/make-believe-with-tom-goss.html

Tom brings us an acoustic cover of the red hot Macklemore and Ryan Lewis's "Can't Hold Us".

Being someone who is just becoming aware of their popularity and music, I asked Tom to expand on his love of them...Go for it Tom!

"I've found a new artistic lifeblood in watching Marcklemore & Ryan Lewis work. I have always loved hip-hop music but I have always been disappointed that rappers weren't using their influence to promote positive social change. In fact, I'm pretty disappointed with the whole industry in that regard. That's a big reason that I write music.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are more true to their artistic expression then any artist I have ever seen. Because of that, they are able to put everything they have into creating something authentic and wholly their own. As a result, they take the artistry to a new level entirely.

Watching them, and their success, has reinforced my own artistic drive. I understand that in order for me to be the best artist I can be, I need to be uncompromising, in my message, approach and execution.

Watching Macklemore & Ryan Lewis' "Otherside." It will change the way you see hip-hop and music videos. Hopefully, someday I can create something as beautiful."

Well Tom judging by your take on "Can't Hold Us" I think you just did...

Pentatonix: "Thrift Shop," Tour & Larry King

Do those PTX'ers ever take a break?! Judging by the fact that they have a new video and song cover out of Macklemore's "Thrift Shop" the answer is obviously a resounding "No".

Also this week the group will be appearing Thursday January 17th on the 100th episode of "Larry King Now".

Oh and on top of that, they are on tour as well...I will see all of you Los Angeles PTX fans at The Henry Fonda on Thursday January 24th, I can't wait...!

Let's go to the "Thrift Shop" shall we?
