We’re not very mature at The Hollywood Gossip. We once made an entire article out of Taylor Swift resembling a famous Satanist . So you can only imagine our reaction when we saw a bird’s-eye image from Google Earth of the newly-built Christian Science church in Dixon, Illinois. Because it looks just like male genitalia! We’re sorry… but it does. See for yourself: And we can’t help but wonder if the owners were aware of this when they came up with the church slogan. Rising Up ?!? Come on. That’s just too easy.
It started with a Starbucks barista who met a young woman inside his establishment. He asked for her number. She handed it over. He later sent her a video of himself silently gesticulating and trying to act all seductive to the Drake track “Hold On, We’re Going Home.” And just like that – BAM ! – #StarbucksDrakeHands became a viral trend, with many on the Internet doing their best impression of the barista. Including celebrities! Such as Larry King! Check out the following video to see the best parodies of this odd sensation by people with who, you are very familiar: Celebrities Do Starbucks Drake Hands Impressions An aspiring actress named Piper Kennedy has come out and identified herself as the woman to whom the original video was sent, causing many to wonder of this is some kind of hoax. But that wouldn’t change the hilarious impressions above. Seriously, people, Larry King!
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?!
Miley Cyrus is currently feuding with Sinead O’Connor . But when that rivalry ends, the singer may have a new one on her hands with Nicki Minaj. That bootylicious singer appeared via taped segment on Ellen this week in order to hawk her “Extreme Home Twerk-Out” exercise routine. Oh, yes, Miles, someone else is looking to take over as Queen Twerker. Nicki, of course, does have quite the Twerking resume doing it in the pool and at the Billboard Music Awards . Will you be purchasing this hilarious DVD? Nicki Minaj: Extreme Home Twerk-Out
A woman in Texas has offered $10,000 to anyone who helps her find a husband . She took some heat for that stunt, but at least she has a sense of humor about it. The same can’t exactly be said for a wedding photographer named Larry Busby. He’s created a website titled Sleepless in Austin and tells visitors that he will give them a $1,500 “Finder’s Fee” if they set him up with a girlfriend. But he has some VERY specific demands. To wit, he writes: I am looking for a girl that has a thin or athletic build. No one over 130lbs. Ages 21-41. White, Hispanic, or of European descent. I will not date any girl that has ever had a threesome, or a large number of past sexual partners. I do not want a promiscuous slut, I want a normal, decent, good hearted girlfriend. I will not date a Black girl. I don’t care if she looks like Halle Berry , I will not ever date a Black girl. And, I do not believe that Whites & Blacks should mix races sexually and have kids together. I think it’s ok for Whites & Hispanics. But not Blacks. I would NEVER, EVER, EVER date a woman if I found out she had EVER been sexually active with a Black man. Guess this excludes Kim Kardashian . Anyway, if you or somehow you know has a person in mind that you think you would like to set up with Sleepless in Austin Larry, allow us to ask: What did that person ever do to you?!?
Jimmy Kimmel is really cementing his place among the late night TV greats with these staged pranks. His latest? A faux freak-out by Julia Louis-Dreyfus! If there was a doubt as to whether or not Julia deserved her place among last weekend’s Emmy winners (for Veep), this effort should put them to rest. In the spirit of viral public meltdowns like Whitney Mongiat or Wendy’s drive-thru guy , Kimmel aired a hilarious video of the star losing her mind. Unlike his epic Twerking fail , he didn’t pass it off as a real thing … but JLD’s rant about the poor coffee shop service would give Elaine Benes pause: Julia Louis-Dreyfus Meltdown
Move over, Allison Leclaire and Craig Jones . A new couple has gotten engaged via flash mob. Late last week, Dustin Reeser accompanied his roommate to a Home Depot in Salt Lake City, believing he was simply there to purchase some lighting for a party. But 25 dancers, the track “Somebody Loves You” and an appearance by his boyfriend later and… well… this happened. Watch one of the sweetest proposals you’ll see all year: Home Depot Flash Mob Proposal
With “Blurred Bynes,” a group of drag queens have done the impossible, covering Robin Thicke’s summer smash and calling out troubled actress Amanda Bynes. Okay, maybe not the impossible. But didn’t see that one coming, did you? L.A. drag queens Willam Belli, Detox (both ex-contestants on RuPaul’s Drag Race ) and Vicky Vox have just released the video lampooning Amanda Bynes ‘ wild antics. Watch it in its NSFW glory below: Blurred Bynes The three queens sing seductively, “OK she smoked some weed, you know you can’t malign her. So high she tweets to Drake to murder her vagina.” Hashtag: #VAGACIDE. They continue, “Whitney, Britney, Lohan, Charlie Sheen and Russell Brand all agree that she’s the man, wait hold up she was in She’s the Man .” Nicely played. While you may say it’s uncalled for to make fun of a girl we now know is suffering from severe mental illness , the group does seem to be big fans. “We love you blurred Bynes,” the drag queen trio croons as part of the chorus. “Your tits real sexy, wig extra messy, looking real, real sketchy.” Indeed. Like the original “Blurred Lines” video , the parody features wild animals, hot models (men in this case) and exercise equipment inside a big white room. Which do you like better?
Kittens on slides? Now that’s the recipe for an adorable video montage. Which someone made, obviously, ’cause the Internet looooves cats! And then some Photos, GIFs, videos. The Internet is MADE of cats. Kittens on Slides There’s really not much more analysis we can offer here. Nor should we. Just do as the web intended when it was first created and giggle with joy at the cutest clips of kittens crawling up and slipping down slides. You’re welcome.
It’s the summer of the pool alley-oop. First, there was this impressive feat, which involved seven friends, a slide and a trampoline . Then there was this ridiculous game of pass, catch and dunk , which really must be seen to be believed. Now, some friends in Minnesota have gathered around a pool to try and pull off the best trick move of the past few weeks, this time involving THREE slam dunkers at the conclusion of the elaborate play. How does it compare to the first two? Watch and decide for yourself: Triple Pool Alley-Oop: WHOA!
