Sarah Silverman, Because Damn!

I wasn’t planning on doing a post on Sarah Silverman today or any time in the near future, considering I’m pretty sure she’s not really relevant anymore and hasn’t been for years. But then I saw her at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Grants Banquet. And anyone dropping this much cleavage definitely deserves a spot on this site. I mean, it’s only fair, right? Yeah, I thought so too. » view all 20 photos Photos: WENN.com Continue reading

Kelis Reacts To Nas’ Life Is Good Album Cover

‘I can respect that he wears his feelings on his sleeve,’ Kelis says of cover featuring her green wedding dress. By Rob Markman Nas’ Life is Good album cover Photo: If you were expecting Kelis to scream “I hate you so much right now” after seeing ex-hubby Nas’ Life Is Good album cover, then you have the “Milkshake” singer all wrong. For the cover of his upcoming solo LP, Nas posed with Kelis’ green wedding dress, the only item she left behind when she and the Queens rapper split. “My feelings about it are not really relevant, but at the end of the day, Nas is an artist and for whatever it’s worth, he’s one of the greatest — especially for what it is that he does,” Kelis told NME.com about the album cover during an interview at the Isle of Wight Festival in England this past weekend. Nas first spoke on the significance of the dress when VH1 profiled the usually private MC on their “Behind the Music” special. “She took her stuff out of the house and left her green wedding dress. And that was all she left,” he said. “It clicked right there. You’re saying it even in your interview. It’s like a given that this should allude to this being on the cover, that statement,” Nas told MTV News on June 12. “Some things you can’t plan, they happen.” The veteran MC likened himself to an old blues musician, an endearing quality that his ex-wife appreciates. “I feel like, especially someone in hip-hop to really kinda be genuine and honest, whatever the honesty is about, I think it’s awesome,” she said. “My feelings about it aren’t really necessarily valid, it’s just the fact that as an artist, I can respect that he wears his feelings on his sleeve. I like that.” Life Is Good is due out July 17. What is your favorite Nas album cover? Let us know in the comments! Related Artists Nas Kelis

What are Mexicans saying about the immigration issue?

Since I speak Spanish and I know that a lot of people don't and would like to find out what is being said in forums in Mexico, I decided to take a look…just out of curiosity. To be honest, I was really surprised at the results. I will share the comments in the Original Spanish (so no one accuses me of inventing or mistranslating the posts for political reasons) and a link to the article. Also, I've pretty much gone straight down the list of comments from top to bottom. I didn't cherry pick, although I ignored two because they were reponses to other posters and were not really relevant. I started at an article titled “14 states prepare racial laws like Arizona”. You'll note immediately the political misrepresentation in the title, which concerned me. The article itself didn't mention race after except in the title. Misleading much? As you read this, keep in mind my previous post in which I spoke about the Mexican sense of pride. You will see it on display here. http://www.eluniversal.com.mx/notas/682834.html Posted comments: Thieron: {El Gobierno debe preocuparse por mejorar la situaci
