The Vampire Diaries Trio Covers EW, Nearly Shuts Down Twitter

Forgive us for ripping off a previous CW marketing campaign, but: OMFG . There really is no alternate reaction to the trio of covers Entertainment Weekly just released in honor of The Vampire Diaries , specifically stars Nina Dobrev, Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley. All three are featured across the main cover and two collector’s items, and nary a shirt is to be seen… Copies of the issue go on sale Friday, while inside producers Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson dish on the challenge of writing for a show with dueling, passionate fan bases. “When we want Stefan and Elena to have a moment together, how can we do that and not have our Delena fans outraged?” Plec asks . We’ve got an idea, Julie: just take Damon’s shirt off. That will satisfy all viewers.

Ellen DeGeneres Responds to JC Penney Protest, Lists Her Traditional Values

Ellen DeGeneres was recently named a spokesperson for JC Penney. Once this news broke, a conservative organization known as One Million Moms quickly launched an offensive to get the comedian fired from the gig. Bill O’Reilly addressed this topic on Fox News last night, taking the side that anyone is free to simply not shop at JC Penney… but to lobby for Ellen’s ousting is un-American and wrong. DeGeneres also touched on the scandal during her talk show monologue, keeping it short, but relying on two points: A number of comments left on the One Million Moms’ own Facebook page are in support of JC Penney and express their authors’ intention to shop there even more now. Have a problem with Ellen’s “traditional values,” as the group claims citizens should? Here they are: Honesty. Quality. Kindness. Compassion. Ellen DeGeneres Reacts to Prop 8, JC Penney Flap Vote now: Do you think Ellen should be fired from this role?

R.I.P.: Comedian Patrice O’Neal Dead At 41 Following Stroke That Left Him Paralyzed For Weeks

We’ve lost another brother way too soon… Comedian Patrice O’Neal died last night after a long battle with diabetes, having never recovered from a stroke last month that reportedly left him unable to move or speak. Talk show host Opie of the Opie & Anthony Radio Show tweeted this morning, “Yes, it’s true that our pal Patrice O’Neal has passed away. The funniest and best thinker I’ve ever known PERIOD.” O’Neal suffered a stroke in October after a long battle with diabetes. The announcement about his condition was made by a group of his comedian friends and peers on the popular Sirius radio show, but few details have been made known since then at the wishes of his family. O’Neal was best known for his darkly playful sense of humor and for saying exactly what was on his mind. While O’Neal was polarizing voice who was often as disliked as much as he was beloved, he was revered by peers and audiences alike for his fearlessness, a characteristic that was in bold relief during the Sheen Roast. So sad… But we have got to do better, people.
