What Does the Fox Say: Ylvis Live on Jimmy Fallon!

Norwegian duo Ylvis brought their viral video sensation and eternal question – What Does the Fox Say ?! – to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon this week. To fans’ delight, the performance recreated nearly all the lights, characters, costumes and choreography that make the original video so absurd (and popular). Take a look at the glory that is “The Fox” live below! Ylvis – What Does The Fox Say? (Live on Late Night) We can’t really add much to something so … unique. There’s a horse. There’s an old man reading to a small child. There is a ring-ding-a-ling and a heck of a good time had by all who experienced this. Kanye may have gotten all the buzz, but what the fox says is a more interesting topic than wheter Kim Kardashian deserves a star on the Walk of Fame. In our opinion, at least. What does the FOX SAY?!

Bluefin Tuna in California: ALL Contaminated With Radiation

Every bluefin tuna caught in California waters is believed to be contaminated with radiation that originated in Fukushima, according to a new report. Yes, every single fish tested. In May of 2012, the Wall Street Journal reported on a Stanford University study by Daniel Madigan, a marine ecologist who was quoted as saying: “The tuna packaged it up (the radiation) and brought it across the ocean … we were surprised to see it at all and even more surprised to see it in every one.” Another member of the study group added that “absolutely every one” of the tuna had comparable concentrations of cesium 134 and cesium 137. That was over a year ago, when the fish had relatively little exposure to the radioactive waste being dumped into the ocean following the 2011 meltdown. Since that time, the flow of radioactive contaminants has continued unabated, and fish born into it have been swimming in contaminants for all of their lives. Radioactive cesium doesn’t sink to the bottom, so fish swim through it and ingest it through their gills or by eating organisms that have already ingested it. It is a compound that does occur naturally in nature, however, the levels of cesium found in the tuna in 2012 had levels 3 percent higher than is usual. Measurements for this year haven’t been made available, but it is known that a person can experience cell damage due to radiation of the cesium particles. Due to this, effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and bleeding may occur. When the exposure lasts a long time, people may even lose consciousness. Coma or even death may then follow. How serious the effects are depends upon the resistance of individual persons and the duration of exposure. Nevertheless … you might not want to eat bluefin tuna in California.

Fifty Shades of Grey Wine: Released (Handcuffs Not Included)!

Fifty Shades of Grey wine. It’s actually a thing. E.L. James, author of the popular novels, has introduced it, starting with two “personally blended” bottles. Just as Christian and Anastasia blend their bodies into one. Or something. The Fifty Shades of Grey wine varietals, titled Red Satin and White Silk, do not come with handcuffs, but may make you more likely to end up in them. We mean sexually, not in a DUI arrest sense. But don’t drink and drive kids. So what do they actually taste like? We’ll try to refrain from obvious jokes and sexual innuendo for just a moment and work from the official release: The red is described as a blend of “Petite Sirah and Syrah with flavors of black cherry, cocoa powder, creamy caramel and vanilla, leather and clove spice.” The white features “floral aromatics of lychee and honey, tempered by flavors of crisp grapefruit, mineral and lush pear with a faint hint of butterscotch.” E.L. said in a statement that “Wine plays an important role in Fifty Shades of Grey , adding to the sensuality that pervades a number of scenes.” Translation: It tastes good. It gets you drunk. Christian and Ana bone like it’s their jobs. There are at least 17 times in which wine is consumed in the book, including one memorable scene in which Ana is given it via Christian’s mouth. No word on whether you can expect Dakota Johnson and Charlie Hunnam to reenact that in the still sort of hotly anticipated Fifty Shades of Grey movie . The wine goes on sale September 30 .

Snake on a Plane Actually Grounds Flight in Australia

Where is Samuel L. Jackson when you need him? A tiny Mandarin Rat Snake was found in the passenger cabin of a Quatas airliner Monday, prompting the company to cancel the flight and put all passengers up at a local airport while they tracked down a replacement jet. Snake on a Plane! The 20-centimeter, mildly venomous animal was eventually apprehended and taken by quarantine officials for analysis. “The Department of Agriculture is looking into how the snake came to be on the plane, but isn’t able to speculate at this time,” the Department said in a statement. So not exactly stuff of horror movie legend, but still. It’s nice to know someone got that mother effin snake off that mother effin plane. It could have caused some damage.

Rihanna, Slow Loris Pose For Photo; Two Dudes Get Arrested in Thailand

Stopping by the island paradise of Phuket, Thailand, on her Diamonds world tour last Friday, Rihanna took a selfie with an endangered slow loris. “Look who was talkin dity to me!” Rihanna captioned the pic. Soon after, two men got arrested over this. Why, you ask? Little did Rih know she was aiding local authorities in enforcing a law banning Thai citizens from charging tourists money to take photos with the primate. According to the Phuket News , officials from the Ministry of Natural Resources began investigating the photo at the urging of animal welfare groups. A police raid turned up two suspects, 20-year-old and 16-year-old males, who were both taken into custody. All because Rihanna ‘s pic went viral. The men could face up to four years in prison and big fines while the cute critters in their possession will be returned to a national park in Phang Nga. The slow loris, which is native to Southeast Asia, has seen its numbers dwindle dramatically since the 1960s due to deforestation and the wildlife trade. Many of the animals seen in markets often have high mortality rates due to illegal capturing and extensive abuse suffered at the hands of their keepers. Hence, wildlife’s conservation groups were concerned that such pics put online by Rihanna could increase the danger to the protected species. No one’s targeting Rihanna in the investigation, just the fact that there were guys with a loris who were offering it up for photos with passing tourists. Along with the slow loris, the Barbadian singer uploaded an Instagram shot of her feeding elephants, writing, “They all hail Empress when she walk by.” Word. Rihanna wasn’t done causing a Thailand stir, either. The controversial star posted NSFW tweets about taking in an X-rated sex show in Phuket’s red-light district, which also sparked the interest of local police. Those shows are against the law. Hopefully, as her tour moves to Singapore and Australia, she’ll stick to taking selfies with non-endangered wild animals like koalas, kangaroos or Chris Brown .
