Wow, two ‘Love It or Leave It’ Rihanna posts in two days. Girlfriend’s just batting a thousand lately with her fashion choices, huh?

Anyway – these pants. I just dare you to tell me you truthfully love those pants. I triple-dog dare you to proclaim that these beasts are so versatile that you’d wear them while shopping, clubbing, or even at a wedding.

The only good point to these pants? That I’m totally envious of the fact that she can wear horizontal stripes on the lower half of her body without looking like a mermaid who’s had too many ramen noodles. Despite the horror of it all, she must be really pleased that she can pull it off.

From People:

Singer Gavin DeGraw was assaulted early Monday in New York City and taken by ambulance to the emergency room.

DeGraw, 34, whose hits include “I Don’t Want to Be” and “Not Over You,” was in stable condition at Bellevue Hospital with a broken nose and cuts to his face, say police.

The assault took place at about 4:30 a.m. in Manhattan, police say. The New York Post reports he was out with friends when he was attacked by a “pack of thugs” on the street and then hit by a taxi as he stumbled away.

So … where were his friends when this all went down? Did they turn tail and take off like frightened rabbits when they saw their buddy’s face being turned into mincemeat, or did they get freaked out and run when they saw the taxi hit him instead?

I’m not a big fan of “I Don’t Wanna Be,” but no one – not even one who sings songs I don’t like - deserves this. Jeez.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Gavin!

Nobody puts Baby in a corner. Everybody knows that. But apparently it’s totally fine to murder Baby, bury her in a shallow hole, resurrect her, kill her and bury her all over again, and then spit on her desecrated zombie grave, because they’re making a Dirty Dancing remake. No, not another shitty sequel, a remake of the beloved original.

The sacrilege, also known as the remake, will be directed by Kenny Ortega, a guy who also directed a couple of High School Musicals. Other credits of his include directing This Is It, the Michael Jackson documentary, and backing out of directing that horrendous Footloose remake. And what’s more, he was the one who choreographed the original Dirty Dancing. So it can’t be ALL bad, can it?

Oh wait, it definitely can. It can be all bad with a side of horrible and a dash of traumatic. Without the eternally glorious Patrick Swayze and the beautiful Jennifer Grey, what is Dirty Dancing? Do you think for one second that I’m going to sit there and watch Zac Efron charmingly tickle Lea Michele‘s arm? Because I won’t.

Would you watch this monstrosity? And, even better, who do you think would get the legendary roles?

Because she has this brand new video out, and it would be a shame if you had to do all that catching up.

We’ve only mentioned Marina once around these parts, and that was because she called out PETA for a dumb, sexist ad. And let me just tell you, that is so much not enough. See, last year, I was all about what I called my Sassy Lady Singer Trinity, which was comprised of Florence and the Machine, Amanda Palmer, and Marina and the Diamonds here. I loved those ladies with everything I had, and I still do, it’s just that now I do other things with my day instead of listening to Lungs, The Family Jewels, and Who Killed Amanda Palmer for roughly thirteen hours every day.

Who’s familiar with the magic of Marina? And isn’t her new music just as stunning as the old? We can also talk about Florence and Amanda more if you’d rather.

I knew you guys were wondering what our favorite breast implant-punching, bulge-wielding fella, Jaleel White, has been up to these days. And I’ve got the answer for you: starring as Cee Lo Green in Cee Lo’s music videos.

I like Cee Lo’s style pretty well, his musical style anyway, but I’ll be damned if I can watch this video without thinking of anything other than Steve Urkel. I think what happened for this particular video is that Steve made a mistake with his sciences and made some sort of clone of Stefan, his suave alter ego, and OGD, his gangster cousin, and that’s who this guy is in the video. Because Jaleel White was never and can never be his own person.
