“The last time I cut my hair short, my boyfriend at the time was like, ‘You look so much better with short hair.’ So I cut it off. I know, I know, so stupid! My girlfriend thinks he just didn’t want any guys to look at me. … I attract a difference kind of boy when my hair’s red. I get more quality men—like a more thoughtful, nerdy dude.”
When I first read this quote, I was all “sure, Kirsten” in this really catty way (you guys, I am such a bitch), but then I thought about it more, and I can dig it. I’m a natural brunette, and I’ve never really played around with coloring that much, but back in January I dyed my hair red, and I really did get quite a bit more attention from guys. And I recently cut my hair short – about this length – and everyone, my mom, my best friend, so many ladies in my life said “oh, that’s really cute, but does your boyfriend like it?” So I guess Kirsten’s right.
What about you guys? Do you get different attention based on your hair? Any ideas on how that works?
If watching this video of everyone’s favorite Twihard didn’t just make your day, then … well, I guess you had a really awful day. And for that, I’m sorry.
But in a further attempt to cheer you up, here’s the same beautiful fan sharing her reaction after seeing Breaking Dawn:
On October 26th, we learned that comedian Patrice O’Neal had had a stroke the week before. Back then, Jenn was concerned that the delay in the announcement hinted that Patrice wasn’t doing well. She was right: Patrice passed away yesterday:
New York-based comedian Patrice O’Neal died Monday after suffering a stroke in October that was related to his diabetic condition. He was 41.
His death was confirmed via Twitter Tuesday by host Opie (Gregg Hughes) of theOpie and AnthonySiriusXM radio show, on which the stand-up comic was a regular guest. The message read: “Yes it’s true that our pal Patrice O’Neal has passed away. The funniest and best thinker i’ve ever known PERIOD. #devastated.”
O’Neal, a 6′ 5″, 300-plus-lb. native of Boston, also appeared on Late Night with Conan O’Brien and Late Show with David Letterman and the sitcoms Arrested Development and The Office.
In September, O’Neal, whose humor was often confrontational but funny, participated in the Comedy Central roast of Charlie Sheen, where other comedians made fun of his diabetes. It was his last performance.
Rest in peace, Mr. O’Neal. You and your humor will be very sorely missed.
So it’s totally frightening how uncomfortable Charlize Theron made me during the whole entire forty-five seconds of this (NSFW due to language) new trailer. Seriously, like, I know people who act like this. Frequently.
But enough about that. I cannot wait to see this movie. We’ve talked it up here enough, and now the ball’s in your court, folks – are you going to spend the dough to see this in theaters, or wait ’til it’s in the bargain rental section at Blockbuster?
An excerpt from Hammond’s new book, God, If You’re Not Up There, I’m F*cked:
“I am three or four years old, and my mother is holding me close to her with one arm. In her free hand she holds a serrated steak knife. Slowly, she sticks it into the center of my tongue, making an incision about one-quarter inch to one-half inch long. It is quiet except for the sound of the hibiscus bush thump-thumping against the kitchen window. I do not struggle or cry. Somehow I know that to do so will make it worse. The kitchen floor is red with my blood.”
Oh my God. Tears, guys. Seriously, big, fat f*cking tears. He was three or four years old? What kind of horrible, demented bitch could do something like that to a little child? And how did Hammond not, like, kick the coffin when this c*nt finally kicked a few years back?
God bless this guy, and seriously, I commend him for coming out of this whole thing somewhat normal. What a steaming, stinking serving of shit that poor little guy went through as a kid.
In this clip, Melissa McCarthy visits Anderson Cooper‘s talk show Anderson, whereupon Anderson busts out some of McCarthy’s high school photos.
And you are not going to believe this: “Missy” McCarthy was the senior voted Most Punk.
McCarthy explains that she had been totally preppy, in that very 1980s way—you know, cheerleading, student council, tennis—until the fateful year she returned from summer vacation with blue Kate Gosselin hair. She also wore turtleneck sweaters safety-pinned together as pants (“My mom loved it! And so did the nuns”).
I filched this video from the Hairpin, and I really recommend taking a look at the lively comments section there—especially if you wore JNCO jeans in the 1990s.
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...
