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!

Keeping Up With Kesha

Kesha on "Nashville"
Despite her legal woes that keep her from making new music, Kesha Rose is keeping plenty busy with, drum roll please....acting gigs!

Earlier in the TV season she annoyed Jane on Jane The Virgin as her not so quiet musical neighbor. She will also be making a cameo on Nashville as who else? Herself, the latter half of it's current season.

While I do no purport to know anything about the sexual abuse allegations Kesha has fired at Dr. Luke. I do know that obviously the situation is not a workable one. Kesha is a grown ass woman and should be able to decide what is best for her and her musical output. 

Kesha should be allowed to create in an environment free from fear and intimidation, whatever the details of that might be.

See you on Nashville grrrrrrrrrrl!

Lick It! Kiefer Sutherland

Come To My Hole
Kiefer Sutherland
KIEFER SUTHERLAND ANNOUNCES NATIONWIDE 26-CITY TOUR AND DEBUT ALBUM 'DOWN IN A HOLE'

For a good time, join Kiefer Sutherland "Down In A Hole"


Kiefer Sutherland will bring his rich, soulful vocals and guitar licks to venues across the country beginning April 14 when he performs for audiences with a set list that includes cuts from his folk-tinged album, Down In A Hole, set for release this summer.

Sutherland, known for his starring role on the Fox series "24," will bring his debut tour as a musician to 26 venues across the country beginning April 14. More dates will be added.

A professional actor his entire adult life, Sutherland starred in movies like ‘Stand By Me’, ‘The Lost Boys’, ‘Young Guns’, Flatliners’, ‘A Few Good Men’, ‘A Time to Kill’, ‘Dark City’, ‘Melancholia’ and most recently, a western called ‘Forsaken’ and the upcoming ABC series “Designated Survivor.”

Unknown to many during the course of his career, he has taken on other vocations with the same kind of dedication and commitment. In 2002, Sutherland, with his music partner and best friend Jude Cole, began a small record label called Ironworks. The goal of this label was to record local musicians and distribute their music at a time when the music industry was going through a monumental shift. Some of their artists included Rocco DeLuca and the Burden, HoneyHoney and Billy Boy On Poison. In 2009, Sutherland left the label to recharge and figure out what he was going to do next.

In early 2015 Sutherland played Cole two songs he had written and wanted to record as demos for other artists to record. Cole responded positively to the songs and the album grew organically from those recordings. Two songs became four and four grew into six, until Cole suggested that they make a record. Their collaboration resulted in Sutherland’s upcoming debut album: Down In A Hole.

“It’s the closest thing I’ve ever had to a journal or diary. All of these songs are pulled from my own personal experiences. There is something very satisfying about being able to look back on my own life, good times and bad, and express those sentiments in music. As much as I have enjoyed the writing and recording process, I am experiencing great joy now being able to play these songs to a live audience, which was something I hadn’t counted on,” Sutherland said of the 11-track album. A track listing and release date will be announced soon.

"I'm The F#cking Marcia Brady Of The Upper East Side"

Blonde, Brown, Buffy, Kathryn !
Sarah Michelle Gellar 
"And sometimes I want to kill myself" - Sarah Michelle Gellar as Kathryn Merteuil, Cruel Intentions 1999

Do you remember the movie Cruel Intentions? Well I sure do! This will always remain one of my favorites! I've seen it like 10 + fucking times! Hey, who has never felt like that about this classic? If your answer is no, you lie!

So, in case you haven't heard SMG is back as KM = Sarah Michelle Gellar is back as Kathryn Merteuil in the TV series based on the iconic film. The Title? Duh, Cruel Intentions

Hey, who else was going to do it?! Ryan Phillippe's character be dead. Reese Witherspoon, well you know she ain't got time for that noise! However if they want to bring back Selma Blair for some more girl on girl tongue action...

Yeah, I bet you are all like myself, down with that!

"Brown Hair, don't care" 

Sarah Michelle rulz!

Now if she would only revisit the character of Buffy from Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Jackpot!

A Triple Shot Of Dolly Parton

An Double Album, DVD and a Tour Too!
Dolly Parton
DOLLY PARTON ANNOUNCES 2016 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR AND NEW DOUBLE DISC ALBUM

Largest North American Tour in 25 Years; US & Canadian Tour Will Stop In Over 60 Cities

New 2-CD Set to be Released This Summer

 
What's better than a double shot of Dolly? A triple, naturally!

Dolly Parton is set to bring her boundless energy to stages in over 60 cities as she embarks on her first major U.S. and Canadian tour in more than 25 years. For the last 20 years, Parton has only played select dates in the U.S., but her 2016 tour will cover cities across North America. As one of the hottest concert tickets of the summer, Parton’s legion of fans are destined to sell out the shows quickly. Parton’s set-list will include hit songs all while weaving in a few new songs from her double-disc album Pure & Simple with Dolly's Biggest Hits. She will also be playing songs that have not been heard live for decades.

“We’re so excited to get out there and see the fans again. I’m really looking forward to singing songs the fans have not heard in a while, as well as the hits, while debuting a few new ones off Pure & Simple,” Parton said.

Pure & Simple with Dolly's Biggest Hits 2-CD set will include all new material as well as a compilation of Parton’s biggest hits. A track listing for Pure & Simple will be announced soon.

The Country Music Hall of Famer is on one of the biggest hot streaks of her career after her hugely successful TV movie, “Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors,” attracted a network record of 15.8+ million viewers and was the most watched movie on network TV in more than 3 years. “Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors,” will be released on DVD May 3.

Stay tuned for tour date announcements and album details.
