The highlight of the currently airing BET Awards so far was this reel of Chris Rock interviewing white people at a monster truck rally about BET, the BET Awards, and black music. One guy's response to Rock's finish-the-lyric question involving Drake's "Started from the Bottom" was a Twitter smash.
Kate Gosselin is the caretaker of eight children of her body's own wondrous making, but more than that, she is the adversary of eight children. This much was clear when she and her two oldest daughters, Mady and Cara, sparred on live television earlier this year, and when she ominously offered "one last redemption" to…
In the slightly NSFW clip above from the Brazilian talk show The Noite, American singer-songwriter Sky Ferreira is presented with the cover of her album Night Time, My Time, on which she appears topless (photographer/director Gaspar Noé shot it). The comedian host of the show, Danilo Gentili, asks Ferreira, via a…
On tonight's The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, disgraced New Jersey governor Chris Christie danced like no one was watching in the "Evolution of Dad Dancing" skit. The "joke" is that Chris Christie dances like a buffoon that makes you want to scrub your eyes with bleach, and it is also "true." Way to get in front of…
"The fun thing about clown sex is there's really no rules," says Jay, a 33-year-old from Chicago and expert on the subject. Jay shared his fetish and many of its accompanying toys—greasepaint, rubber noses, clown pants that you can wear with nothing under them, a cat o' nine tails made of uninflated balloons—on an…
Animal researcher Margaret Howe Lovatt studied dolphins near the U.S. Virgin Islands in the '60s. She happened upon a pubescent male named Peter and one thing led to another and...you know.
Last night, HBO premiered Remembering the Artist: Robert De Niro, Sr., a 45-minute documentary about the father of Robert De Niro. De Niro, Sr., was an abstract impressionist painter who struggled with his lack of recognition for most of his career. He was also gay. De Niro, Jr., appeared throughout the documentary,…
Orange Is the New Black star and groundbreaking TIME covergirl Laverne Cox appeared on The Wendy Williams Show today and endured a particularly dumb line of questioning about being transgender from Williams. Williams' several questions about Cox's gender identity included:
This is from last night Tony Awards, during which Bryan Cranston won the award for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play. Chris O'Dowd was also nominated in that category and lost so well that he ended up winning anyway. This is how you do it.
"When I met Taylor and when we got married, he looked like a Backstreet Boy," said Kim, 28, a marketing director at a local airport near Fredericksburg, VA. She meant that as a compliment. You see, her relationship has since been hijacked by her husband Taylor's barbecue-sauce trap of a beard that he grew, "fell in…
Last night Lifetime debuted Little Women: LA, another Real Housewives style show that brings together a group of women to fight and occasionally feign compassion. The twist here is that instead of affluence, these women are bound by the fact that they are all little people.
Last night, Lifetime aired a sequel to its ridiculous adaptation of V.C. Andrews' pulp tale of incest and other parenting no-nos, Flowers in the Attic. Petals on the Wind felt exactly like the rush job it was—the sequel was announced in January a week before Flowers aired because that's how certain Lifetime was that…
On last night's episode of Watch What Happens Live, ringmaster Andy Cohen had his guests Jon Hamm and Amy Sedaris act out an iconic Don Draper/Peggy Olson confrontation from Season 4 of Mad Men. The twist was that Sedaris was made to perform the scene as her former drug addict/prostitute Strangers with Candy…
James Franco's paintings of a nude Seth Rogen are not exactly his — they're based on a series of drawings by Pinups magazine editor Christopher Schulz that were released in 2011. On today's Today show, Franco admitted that the renderings were not his idea, but explained that they should have been, so he felt justified…
It's "Extreme Week" on The Steve Harvey Show, which opens the door for this bit of complete and utter nonsense that aired earlier today. Carla is supposedly addicted to social media ("I feel like I'm a minister of the gospel of Facebook") and unable to do anything without documenting it for the world to see ("If it…
Justin Timberlake appeared on last night's season premiere of Oprah Presents Master Class. By asking celebrities to discuss their success and the reasons for it in what amounts to a 40+ minute monologue, the show is basically a setup for failure or at least rambling self-indulgence. The brags, be they of the humble…
For anyone who saw and didn't find charm in John Turturro's insane vanity project, Fading Gigolo, Conan O'Brien's interview with Sharon Stone on last night's Conan was a welcome helping of catharsis. For those who haven't seen the movie, Turturro wrote, directed, and cast himself in the role of a man that piles of…
A 20-year-old Savannah State University student and cheerleader named Desiree was profiled on last night's episode of MTV's True Life, which was titled "I'm a Gay Athlete." In it, Desiree ostensibly came out to her mom Michelle and aunt Deena over lunch. It did not go well. This is about as worst-case scenario as it…
In the "Amy Goes Deep" segment from last night's Inside Amy Schumer, Schumer deftly walks the line of vibing with and mocking 106-year-old Downing, who's being interviewed precisely because she is 106 (no other reason is needed). I love that Downing regularly lets Schumer's smart-assed questions fall flat, sometimes…
On last night's Late Show, David Letterman grilled America's sacred moonchild/actress Shailene Woodley for over three minutes on her well-known clay-eating habit. During her answers, she came off as both a good sport and a good sport who takes her clay-eating and good-sporting very seriously.
