So those absolutely crazy religious fundamentalist people, the Westboro Baptist Church, known best for picketing funerals of Iraqi soldiers and gay rights events, are now picketing Justin Bieber concerts. Why? Well, I’m not totally sure, but it seems as if they’re just prptesting him because he’s not spreading their word.

A Church’s site says:

“There are no jobs, homes, money or hope, but you’ll pay big bucks to attend rock concerts by the thousands. [Bieber] has a platform given to him by God to speak to this world; he has a duty to teach obedience by his actions and words. He refuses to do that because he knows his concert halls would be empty! So, he teaches you to sin and rebel against God’s commandments.”

So, by merely existing, Justin Bieber has managed to piss these people off. Oh, well, they’re also still pissed at him for performing at the White House where “he got to pose with Anti-Christ Beast Obama.” The group said of Justin and Obama’s meeting, “He and Obama are of one mind and they are leading this nation to hell! Justin will answer to God!”

Essentially what I’m trying to tell you is that the Westboro Baptist Church is still fuckin’ nutso. If you’re unfamiliar with their work, check out this clip of them with the oil to their water, Michael Moore:

I’ve made it more than clear that I am obsessed with rapper Nicki Minaj and I have been for a couple years now. She’s just one of the most fresh, animated and brave young MCs out there and if that wasn’t enough, her style and attitude are on point.

After watching this interview she did with MTV about her new video for “Your Love” (you probably can’t escape that on the radio), Nicki shows her full range, starting off earnest, getting quite cocky, adopting a British accent and then taking on the role of an evil queen. In a nutshell, Nicki’s working the cameras harder than the most well-trained Disney star these days. She knows what to do and what to say to keep everyone at home guessing and reporters totally baffled.

Personally, I love every minute of it as both a performer and a person who writes about wild celebrities, but how does like… America feel about it? How do the people who read this blog feel about that? Is it alienating, or do you agree that she’s the best thing to happen to pop culture in a minute?

The folks over at ScreenRant asked an important question, “What would happen if the summer’s biggest movies, Inception and Toy Story 3, met?” The answer is one hell of a creepy Ken Doll.

The mash up above is impressive if nothing else. I’ve cut together mash ups like this before and that shit ain’t easy, so props. But I should also point out that I live under a rock and I haven’t seen either of those movies yet and I still laughed (without feeling like I was owed a spoiler alert.)

What’s your favorite movie mash up? I think there’s been some good ones.

“I said, ‘I’m not going to take off my heels. You’re short. Embrace it.’ He’s getting taller, though.”

- Selena Gomez on how she broke it to her buddy Justin Bieber that she wouldn’t take off her high heels to perform with him.

Following in the footsteps of important celebrities like Amanda Bynes and LeAnn Rimes, Kanye West got a Twitter.  I have high hopes that this is going to be the best Twitter account ever.  Here are his first two tweets:

Up early in the morning taking meetings in Silicone Valley

Lol I spelled Silicon wrong ( I guess I was still thinking about the other type of silicone ITS A PROCESS!! : )

See what I mean?  Comedy gold.  He also had some other gems – he got his account yesterday, and he has 49 tweets at this time – and I am going to share with you guys some of my favorites:

I feel the glow

Dress up for flight

cool ain’t cool no more,it’s a new day education is the new motivation truth taste and beauty let’s raise our children better than us

Seriously, do yourself a favor and check that out.  You can see the part where he doesn’t understand how trending topics work and the part where he doesn’t understand how basic grammar works.  I imagine this would be what it would be like if my crazy aunt got a Twitter, except Kanye hasn’t mentioned a margarita machine, moral uncleanliness, or selling overpriced costume jewelry with the ladies from his church.  Not yet, anyway.

Chris Klein, who went into rehab back in June after getting a DUI, seems to actually comprehend that he needs to get his issues under control (unlike some people).  After 30 days after voluntarily being in treatment, he’s decided to stay a little bit longer.  Here’s the statement from his rep:

“Chris, along with his support team, has decided to extend his treatment. He is doing fantastic and is optimistic about his future. He thanks everyone for their continued support.”

I’m not going to pretend like I deeply care about Chris Klein or anything like that  - it’s not 2000 (did you guys see Here on Earth?  It was so beautiful, or at least it was when I was 12). But amidst all the celebrities that don’t take rehab seriously or don’t get treatment when they clearly, clearly need it, I think it’s cool when someone, as irrelevant as he may be, can just deal with what he needs to deal with.

Of course, Chris Klein may just be having a fun time doing crafts or whatever.  That’s always a possibility.
