Congratulations to Snoop Dogg, who is now considered non-threatening enough to enter the country of Australia.

In fairness to Snoop, it’s not that he got less badass, it’s just that the government in power when he was banned was a little less immigration-friendly than the current administration, which removed the ban.

“He has now been assessed under the character test as having passed, so he will be given a visa,” said an immigration official.

With the ban lifted, Snoop plans to tour in Australia starting October 21 along with Ice Cube.

If you guessed “Kirsten Dunst and Justin Long together at Sunset Junction,” you’d be correct.

However, if you guessed “Recently rehabbed Kirsten Dunst at the beer garden at Sunset Junction with an alcoholic beverage in front of her and Justin Long at her side,” well, you’d be even more correct.

I wonder if Justin dates exclusively women who have had failed attempts at sobriety.

Sigh.

Is she going to be pregnant forever?

Okay, so I’m still technically Team Miley, because I don’t like Selena Gomez (no, I don’t have any reason for this, I just don’t like her, because I’m 26 years old and I have nothing better to do than develop allegiances in a romantic triangle involving two 15-year-old girls and a pre-pubescent boy-bander and what the fuck are you gonna do about it?), but I am developing a growing admiration for Demi Lovato.

Here’s some footage of her totally eating shit at a concert in Chicago on Sunday (the fall happens at 0:26) and she picks herself right up and laughs it off. She didn’t appear flustered in the least. I’m impressed, Ms. Lovato.

Up now: hottie Ace Young, who will take on the role of Kenickie in Grease starting September 9, just as Taylor Hicks is leaving his post as Teen Angel.

“I’m really excited,” said Ace. “I had a lot of things kind of open up for me and when the role of Kenickie was offered, it’s something that I’ve always wanted to do as a kid. That’s always been my favorite role from `Grease.’”

Dude, the only things that have opened up for Ace Young since his AmIdol stint are legs. I guess I’m just bitter because they were never my legs. I think I’d have sex with Ace Young in much the same way that I’d, like, wear a Milli Vanilli concert tee. It’s just a neat conversation starter. Like, “Ah ha ha, that’s a Milli Vanilli concert tee! Too funny! Where’d you get that?” Instead it would be like, “Ha ha, you had sex with Ace Young? Dude, that is too funny. I bet there’s a great story behind that. Let me buy you a beer and you can tell me.”

Anyway, congratulations, Ace.

Someone sent along this link to a video of Jesse McCartney covering T-Pain’s “Buy U a Drank” at a concert. Um … this is awesome. I love everything about this. I love that the audience is singing along rather than gaping at him like “Is this really happening?” Because that is what I would be doing. That is what I am doing.

I am also really interested to learn if he had to buy the rights to perform this song in concert. If so, what was T-Pain’s reaction when his manager was like, “Uh, dude, is it cool if Jesse McCartney covers one of your songs?”

Anyway, kids, no prize involved this time (we’ll be running a cool contest on Tuesday, so check back for that), but let’s play fill-in-the-blank just for fun.

Jesse McCartney decided to cover T-Pain’s “Buy U a Drink” because _______________.

Thanks Kat!
