Glee: Take It From The Top Chef

Posted on November 5, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

God, this show has really gone downhill. Instead of the singing and dancing that we love, they filled McKinley High with a bunch of old chefs sitting and bitching. It was way more knife skills than jazz hands.

Former UK ambassador: CIA sent people to be ‘raped with broken bottles’

Posted on November 5, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

http://rawstory.com/2009/11/ambassador-cia-people-tortured/ The CIA relied on intelligence based on torture in prisons in Uzbekistan, a place where widespread torture practices include raping suspects with broken bottles and boiling them alive, says a former British ambassador to the central Asian country. Craig Murray, the rector of the University of Dundee in Scotland and until 2004 the UK's ambassador to Uzbekistan, said the CIA not only relied on confessions gleaned through extreme torture, it sent terror war suspects to Uzbekistan as part of its extraordinary rendition program.

Kate Hudson has men figured out. “I sometimes feel like when you’re talking to boys, they just hear certain keywords,” she tells Elle UK . “But if you had a thought bubble above their head, they would be thinking about game scores, masturbation and food.” Well, that about sums it up

Miley Cyrus Gives Fans a Halloween Surprise

Posted on November 3, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

As voted on by citizens across the country, Miley Cyrus is the worst celebrity influence on the planet.

The star, dressed as Pocahontas, performed Joan Jett’s “I Love Rock N’ Roll,” much to the screaming delight of those in attendance

In a Terrifying Alternate Universe, Vice President Sarah Palin Claims Victory

Posted on November 3, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

On election night, Sarah Palin threatened to “go rogue” by delivering a speech someone else wrote for her, but John McCain refused so she didn’t. Now you can read the addresses — both concession and victory — she would’ve given. The Daily Beast has an excerpt from Sarah from Alaska , a new Palin bio , with the speeches writer Matt Scully wrote for her on election night: A concession speech in which she lauded “black citizen” Barack Obama for winning, and a victory speech in which she announces that her husband will thenceforth be known as “the First Dude.” Reading the victory speech is chilling in a Man in the High Castle sort of way—what if McCain/Palin really did win the election, and we’re all just characters in a blog or something?
