Hey, remember the viral sensation that was Tay Zonday? Think back. Think back a little harder. There you go.
Turns out Tay Zonday is still around, and his songs are still terrible (but his production values have skyrocketed!). And yet! “Mama Economy” is probably the best thing the Internet star has ever posted to his YouTube account.
Why is this song so great? Maybe it’s because he didn’t bother rhyming the lyrics this time. Also, it doubles as a pretty good crash course in understanding the grim economic realities we’re facing—the song is surprisingly on-point. (En pointe?) And then there’s the “Serious Face” Tay Zonday makes at the end. Haha.
Look! Someone turned Selena Gomez into Jocelyn Wildenstein!
No, but seriously, those aren’t the two wax figures I’m talking about. At least not Jocelyn Wildenstein, anyway – the wax figures would be Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber’s newly-unveiled forms at Madam Tussaud’s wax museum, and gorry. Don’t they just suck? Check the others out in the gallery.
-The cover of Pink Floyd’s album, ‘Meddle’
-Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull
-My fear of twitchy, fast-moving things (you know what I’m talking about – it’s all the rage in today’s horror movies)
-The constant that Florence Welch can do no wrong
Powerful stuff, folks. That pretty much sums it up for me. How about you guys?
“I do not have a birth defect. If you feel like you have a birth defect, fine. That’s how you feel. Go feel that. Do not put it onto me. Do not define me that way, and do not define other trans people that way unless they claim that label. … Chaz is a misogynist. He is a trans man who seems to believe that his female-assignedness and his female socialization makes him immune from being a misogynist, and he is manifestly wrong. This man doesn’t represent our community… The next time you hear Chaz’s name brought up in a conversation about trans issues, point out the things he’s said about surgery, ‘birth defects,’ and women.”
This is Stephen Beatty’s reaction to Chaz Bono‘s latest assertation that being transgendered is a “birth defect,” but I think we all know the real birth defect here might be “parented by Cher.” I mean, Cher and Warren Beatty dated back in ’62, so Stephen here could very well have been a child of Cher’s. He should just be happy he missed that crazy train.
Chaz had previously commented, “There’s a gender in your brain and a gender in your body. For 99 percent of people, those things are in alignment. For transgender people, they’re mismatched. That’s all it is. It’s not complicated, it’s not a neurosis. It’s a mix-up. It’s a birth defect, like a cleft palate.”
And I get his point – I really do. I just don’t know that I’d, personally, word it quite like that.
What do you think – is transgender a birth defect, or is Chaz Bono still reaping the rewards for putting his foot in his mouth one too many times?
Last night, [Jonathan] Jaxson went on Twitter and live-tweeted his suicide attempt. He failed, thankfully: ‘These chest pains worry me…all as I sit here looking at a bottle of round objects. It is too much anymore and tonight I was bullied! I feel like going to a better place then [sic] here on Earth right now. One is trying to destroy my life and I won’t ever win. Suicide I would never promote, but it is me against money and elite and I will never ever ever win… This is no hacker…It is me.’ He blamed the Kardashians for using their money and lawyers to intimidate him into keeping quiet. Since, you know, she’s threatening to sue for calling her a famewhore. Soon after, a friend went on Jaxson’s feed to say: ‘Hey everyone. This is Jons BF and I just am getting here. He left all this up. Medical personal [sic] are here and are taking him now. Thank you… Thank you for getting the police to his house. It was because of you they said. So thank you! I must go now to the hospital.’ RadarOnline.com also reports Jaxson posted a YouTube video of himself crying, talking about being bulled by her and her lawyers. The original video and his Twitter have since been deleted.
The aforementioned Jonathan Jaxson was Kim‘s publicist from 2007-2009 who recently came forward and brought various private emails, ostentatious contracts, and the fake, recycled engagement ring to the rapt attention of the public.
But wait. OK. Live-Tweeting your “suicide attempt” is probably a little bit more than just your standard cry for help, and I think this guy’s got (and had) a lot more problems than he’s letting on – even bigger problems than keeping up with the Kardashians – but I could also totally see where the Kardashian/Jenner family would do everything in their power to keep their little cash cow from entering the light, exposed for the cheap little bovine that she really is. Everything, up to and including malicious threats and bullying. Classy, huh?
I would like to tell you that the term “retard” is very offensive to me. I am not offended because I ASSUME it would offend someone who has mental retardation. I am offened on how the word came to...
I am not offended that Rosie has a fear or anxiety of LP. I feel that when someone knows very little about things and or people they tend to be anxious. Think about it if you had never been around someone...
