Rob Gronkowski: Wrestling, Dancing on Stage in Vegas

Rob Gronkowski has a $54 million contract with the New England Patriots, along with a broken arm that caused him to miss the 2013 playoffs. But neither of those facts stopped the tight end from jumping on stage last night in Las Vegas, dancing shirtless… and delivering a Stone Cold Stunner to a fellow club patron. Watch now as Gronkowski raises his cast immediately after the move and appears to be okay. But New England fans may need more proof to prevent a total meltdown: Rob Gronkowski Wrestling Gronkowski is no stranger to extreme behavior. In the past, he has posed nude for ESPN the Magazine and said he wants to take Tim Tebow’s virginity .

Skeet-Gate: White House Defends Obama Gun Photo Release, Timing

The White House is still answering for “skeet-gate” and defending the release (and timing) of the photo of President Obama firing a gun in August 2012. With Obama’s much-publicized remarks on gun violence in Minnesota scheduled just days later, many felt the photo release was a cheap stunt. “Why did the White House release the skeet shooting photos three days before this trip?” a reporter asked White House press secretary Jay Carney. Carney said the WH received questions about Obama skeet shooting, “so we decided to tweet a photo of the president shooting at Camp David.” Technically, this is true. President Barack Obama had been asked by the New Republic ‘s Franklin Foer in an interview published on January 27 if he’d ever fired a gun. “Yes, in fact, up at Camp David, we do skeet shooting all the time,” Obama said sending gun rights advocates, the press and the public into a frenzy. The picture was memed all over the Internet, while Obama opponents cried foul and even some supporters shook their heads in bemusement. Carney was asked for photo evidence, but none initially was provided. A Congresswoman asked if she could shoot with him sometime. No response. The main issue is that Obama made the statement while pressing Congress and the public to support gun control measures following the Newtown massacre. Skeet-Gate reeked, to critics, as a PR move. Monday, former senior Obama adviser David Axelrod added to the criticism, saying the White House should have put an end to Skeet-Gate sooner. “They should have put the [ Obama gun photo ] out earlier. I don’t know why they waited five days to put that out,” he said on MSNBC’s Morning Joe . “Because it just rekindled the whole story.” Carney defended the move and stressed Monday that the president’s personal time spent with friends and family at Camp David is not publicized. “I think he has gotten better” at skeet shooting, Carney said, reiterating that our 44th president has never claimed to have grown up “a hunter.”

Black Keys Starting A Band With Johnny Depp After Movie Awards?

Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney joke about forming a T. Rex cover band with Depp and Matthew McConaughey. By Kara Warner, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Johnny Depp and the Black Keys perform at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards Photo: Kevin Winter/ Getty Images UNIVERSAL CITY, California — The 2012 MTV Movie Awards only just ended, but we can’t get over the epic onscreen performance/award presentation between the Black Keys and Johnny Depp. Not to mention the fact that they were introduced by rock gods Steven Tyler and Joe Perry of Aerosmith. When MTV News caught up with the Keys themselves, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney, backstage after their performance, we asked them how they were feeling after coming offstage. “Super normal, that’s a normal moment for us,” Auerbach joked. “Yeah that’s our normal lives, hanging out with rock stars and movie stars, you know. It was actually a little boring.” “I was trying to hold back yawns,” added Carney. We then tried to get to the bottom of how the unexpected collaboration came to fruition, but even the Keys themselves seemed to have no idea. “I don’t know, I think MTV has a random computer generator,” Auerbach joked, with Carney chiming in, “It was supposed to be us and Regis Philbin, but we rejected it.” In all seriousness, the duo had nothing but praise for their guest star, particularly his preparation and skills on the guitar. “He’s a really good guitar player,” Carney said. “Yeah, no joke. He’s a really good guitar player,” Auerbach reiterated. So now that they’ve played with one of the biggest movie stars on the planet, what other movie stars will the Keys be collaborating with in the future? “Matthew McConaughey on bongos,” Carney joked. “We’re going to start a T. Rex cover band with Johnny Depp and Matthew McConaughey as Mickey Finn.” And now that they’ve finished their work for the night, will the guys be meeting up with Depp after the show? “We’re all going to go meet up at Se

Watch this and see who is being rude and who is trying to have a real discussion. Tim Carney, on MSNBC, is trying (while smiling) to make a point but his “host,” some rude woman who deserves to be nameless, won’t even let him finish making his point — which was, of course, a criticism of the media, but hardly a terribly rude one. Every time he tried to explain what he was trying to say, she cut him… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : Amspecblog Discovery Date : 11/05/2012 22:10 Number of articles : 2
