Fiona Apple Addresses Drug Arrest in Weirdest Rant Ever

Fiona Apple got arrested for hashish possession in Texas last week. In an on-stage rant Friday night, she discussed the incident, apologizing for behaving inappropriately … then threatening four unnamed individuals. Take a listen … Fiona Apple Rants About Drug Arrest Fiona wasted little time getting into the topic in Houston, telling the crowd, “I’m just gonna get this over with right away…First thing is the guy who runs the jail…he’s a good guy, I want to apologize to him.” “I’m not going to say his name because he isn’t interested in fame… and I only met him yesterday morning and I’m apologizing to him for being attitude-y.” “Most people were very nice to me [but] there are four of you out there and I want you to know that I heard everything you did. I wrote it all down with your names and everything you did and said stupidly thinking I couldn’t hear or see you.” Mmmmmkay. What did they do exactly? Fiona didn’t reveal specifics … yet. The singer went on to say she “then ripped the paper up but not before I encoded it and put it in two lock boxes. We’ll call them holding cell one and holding cell two. In holding cell one, is the encoded version of the s–t you did that I know is inappropriate and probably illegal. In holding cell two, is the decoder.” “I’m the only one who holds the key and you and I will be intimate forever because I will hold that secret forever unless of course the celebrity you had so much interest in but you wanted to accuse me of bringing up while you laughed at me all night.” “Unless you’re interested in being a celebrity… I’ll make you f*%ing famous anytime you ask and I’ll open those boxes. Until then, stay in your f*%king holding cell.” Sounds like what those four people need is a good defense … attorney.

Did You Know–High Levels Of Arsenic Have Been Found In Rice…And The FDA Doesn’t Give An Isht!!!

Stop!!! Put the sushi roll down and read this… there’s a new study out there that’s found extremely high levels of arsenic in rice. Consumer Reports already came out with their Apple Juice study earlier this year and now we’re finding out that rice has high amounts of the chemical too?!?! SMH According to the study, rice with the highest levels of arsenic comes from Texas, Louisiana, and portions of the Gulf Coast that used to grow cotton; since arsenic-filled pesticides were used to kill the boll weevil (a beetle that feeds on cotton buds and flowers), the chemical is STILL in the soil after more than a century ago! As the rice grows, arsenic enters and concentrates into the plant. Since the shell is still on brown rice, it’s actually more harmful than white as far as the levels are concerned. In case you didn’t know, arsenic causes lung, skin, and bladder cancer. Rice is a main staple in many cultures AND food ingredients, buyer beware! According to CBS News… …arsenic is also very harmful to babies’ brain development. If a baby is exposed to arsenic in the womb because the mother is eating arsenic or if a baby ingests arsenic in the first months of life in cereal, rice milk or other food, the arsenic could interfere with brain development, reduce the child’s intelligence, and cause behavioral problems. Landrigan recommended in the coming months and years that parents avoid rice altogether or just rice that was grown in Texas, Louisiana, and Missouri. “Stay with California rice, stay with Asian rice or when in doubt go with barley, go with oatmeal,” he said. “The smart thing to do is to be concerned and not do it. … Just avoid the rice.” Asked about adults eating rice, Landrigan said it’s smart to limit the amount of rice you eat, but that you don’t have to cut it out entirely. If you’re asking yourself why you’re just hearing about this now…blame the FDA. They don’t warn consumers about this kind of isht because there are NO federal standards for how much arsenic is allowed in food!!! The FDA has released a statement on arsenic, saying, “Based on the currently available data and scientific literature the FDA does not have an adequate scientific basis to recommend changes by consumers regarding their consumption of rice and rice products” That’s right! The Food And Drug Administration has got nada to say about rice and high arsenic levels. FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg actually said that consumers shouldn’t stop eating rice, though she does encourage a “diverse diet”, you know, just in case : “Our advice right now is that consumers should continue to eat a balanced diet that includes a wide variety of grains — not only for good nutrition but also to minimize any potential consequences from consuming any one particular food,” she said. We all know the FDA doesn’t have consumers best interests in mind. If you can’t regulate isht because corporations control you then we’ll have to keep spreading the word on crucial news like this on our own! Images via shutterstock

Bad Movies We Love, Pre-Wedding Hijinks Edition: Bachelor Party (1984)

America loves a good ol’ fashioned bachelor party. It’s a time honored tradition that’s been committed to film again and again, including in this week’s gender-reversal romp, Bachelorette , where the ladies get to behave badly . In honor of that film Movieline takes a look at the holy grail of bachelor party movies, and a bad movie we love: Bachelor Party , starring future Oscar-winner Tom Hanks . Bachelor Party imagines a world where Tom Hanks and Tawny Kitaen are engaged, just a couple of crazy kids living on a dream. If you’ve only ever known Kitaen from her car acrobatics in the “Here I Go Again” video now’s your chance to experience her acting skills as Debbie, a fun-loving gal who’s crazy in love with Hanks’ Ricky Gassko, despite her snobby parents’ disapproval. But before we get to know them, we’ve got to meet Rick and pals, our protagonists on this crazy journey through drugs, hookers and donkeys. Rick is a school bus driver by day who moonlights as some sort of avant-garde sculptor by night. ’80s filmmakers never met a welding helmet they didn’t like. He rounds up his motley crew of buds from their random jobs — baby photographer, mechanic, ticket scalper, and waiter — in order to break the news that he’s going pro; that’s right, he’s getting married. Next week! Of course the guys loudly protest until they realize that they can throw the biggest, baddest bachelor party in history. “WOMEN!!” bellows Rudy, for the first of about a thousand times in the flick. The promise of hookers is what snares the guys, and alarms the ladies. The night gets off to a zany start when Rick’s love rival, Cole (you know he’s a bad guy because he has the quintessential ’80s evil preppy haircut), intercepts their hookers and sends them to Debbie’s wedding shower instead! Zoinks! After enjoying a lesbian sex show, the ladies decide to go out and enjoy a night at the Chippendales, where a bunch of hunks in pastel bikinis do the grapevine and Debbie’s mom gets a foot-long surprise from a young gentleman named Nick the Dick, orchestrated by prankster Rick, who’s been tipped off by his buddy the bartender. For some reason, the ladies decide to get revenge on the guys by putting on their “Best Little Whorehouse In Texas” finest (bloomers are involved) and heading to the hotel. Bachelor Party is one of those movies where coincidence drives the entire engine of the plot. In one room we’ve got the bachelor party, which looks like a middle school pajama party only with more boobs; throughout the hotel, we’ve got our bride and her entourage as fake hookers waylaid by some Japanese businessmen, Cole in army fatigues with a crossbow, Debbie’s dad speaking at the beer convention downstairs, and a flamboyant lady about to, ahem, perform with an unsuspecting donkey. All the while, Tom Hanks is showing off his best dance moves, pulling pranks and officiating slumber party games. If anything, the movie is a great reminder of just how hot Tom Hanks was circa 1984. He’s adorable as the slacker with the heart of gold. And whatever happened to Adrian Zmed as his buddy O’Neill and the brains behind the operation? Very attractive, especially outfitted in the de rigeur bachelor party uniform: blazer, no shirt, necktie around head. And despite his meatheadishness and screaming physical comedy (the man literally buries his face into a giant bowl of popcorn during a fit of glee), I wouldn’t kick Barry Diamond out of bed for eating crackers. Bachelor Party is basically the blueprint for every wild party night movie. You may see shades of Can’t Hardly Wait , of Superbad or any movie where the wildest party ever is thrown, hijinks ensue, the cops show up and everyone runs, etc. But what qualifies Bachelor Party as a Bad Movie We Love is the high dose of WTF that it brings to the table. Oh, the 80s! It also manages to be incredibly raunchy without going for the gross-out factor, save for a few hairy butts and one proctology joke involving super-supporting character Dr. Tina Gassko, Rick’s sister-in-law. You will have to just accept that this was made in a pre-PC world and try to laugh at the sexism and homophobia and mild racism throughout. After the inevitable run from the cops montage, Cole throws Debbie over his shoulder and kidnaps her to a multiplex, naturally, where he and Rick have a beatdown in front of the screen playing a 3-D sci-fi movie, where the audience applauds realistic effects, like getting punched in the face. Smash cut to: Our happy wedding! Where we find out that Rick’s middle name is Ernesto (?!?) and he threatens to do something strange to Debbie with an egg beater now that they’re married. Ahhh, young love. They ride off into the sunset in the school bus driven by suicidal druggie friend Bradford, adorned with a sign “Just Having Sex.” So romantic. So if the coke-fueled lady antics of Bachelorette seem edgy to you, remember that everyone’s pal Tom Hanks did it first — with a donkey — just 28 years ago. Katie Walsh is a writer in Los Angeles.

At It Again…Obama Hater Hank Williams Jr. Blasts The Pres During His Concert In Texas

This dude needs to sit the eff down. Hank Williams, Jr., keeps talking isht about Obama during his concerts and surprise; his fans are eating it up! Hank Williams Jr. repeated his anti-Obama tirade at a concert in Texas on Sunday. Performing at the Stockyards Music Festival, the country singer went on an extended rant against the president. “We’ve got a Muslim for a President who hates cowboys, hates cowgirls, hates fishing, hates farming, loves gays, and we hate him,” Williams Jr. bellowed. As the Dallas Sun reported, the crowd responded with a loud cheer. This is the second time in recent weeks the singer has used heated language when describing his distaste for the president. A late August concert featured Williams Jr. doing the same bit, though the dig at homosexuals appears to be a new addition to his schtick. Hanky’s already lost his NFL gigs…if he keeps talkin’ isht he’s going to lose even more. Source Images via WENN
