I’ve been listening to OK Go since before I entered college—even before their debut album, you guys!—and for some reason, I am still subscribed to the band’s email list. So I did actually know the erstwhile Chicago foursome had a new music video on the way, thanks to a recent email blast.

But what a video! Ever since “A Million Ways“—it was choreographed by one of the bandmembers’ sister—the band’s videos have been getting more and more elaborate, all while tending toward single long takes. (“Here It Goes Again” was the video that really put the band on the map, of course.)

Now that the band is Hot Malarkey, they’re teaming up with Chevy for their music videos. The scoop from the YouTube page:

A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of “Needing/Getting,” singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian [Kulash] took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they’d play the right note no matter where they were struck.

No, I am not being paid to tell you this: I would love the video even more if it had been shot from inside a Chevy Cruze instead. You guys, I love my Cruze. It is a tiny four-door car with a spacious interior and a surprisingly deep trunk. It gets terrific highway gas mileage, too, and it has a 5-star safety rating. Like, why wouldn’t you drive through a musical obstacle course in one of those? I ask you.

P.S. My Cruze’s name is Clyde; I just remembered I’ve actually written about my car here before.

Ready? Set? Bug your eyes out, flare your nostrils, and slightly part your lips. Got it? Good. Then you’ve got Jennifer Aniston‘s signature face that is seen somewhere in every. single. photo shoot. ever. Congratulations!

So here are a few choice quotes from Jen’s latest interview with InStyle magazine, and if you can also say “vanilla” along with the above facial contortionist accomplishment, then you probably are Jennifer Aniston. And if that’s the case, lay off lady. I have good lawyers, too, and last I checked, it’s a free country. We’re still allowed to say what we want to a certain extent, right?

In the interview, Jen talks about her life’s second passion (no, “not” her boyfriend, “directing), a Greek cooking trick that she’s not sharing, and probably ending up a crazy cat-lady recluse because she says that leaving the house is a risk.

Jennifer on her inherited culinary skills:

“I’d love to say I’m an accomplished cook, but I don’t have any signature dishes. I’m good at breakfast – I make great eggs. My father gave me a little recipe. It’s all in the seasoning. But it’s a Greek secret. I won’t give it away!”

Jennifer on what she finds to be the public’s most annoying preconception:

“Which one? There are so many. I would say the triangle with my ex-husband – and that there’s a feud there. It’s constant. It’s a story headline that won’t go away, but it’s a money thing – [people make money off] a story that has nothing to do with reality.”

On copying every current boyfriend’s style (yes, EVERY. Don’t you remember when Brad Pitt went all hippie-chic a few years back and to complement his style, Jen donned dreadlocks for awhile):

“First of all, he [boyfriend Justin Theroux] has great style – it’s very specific, and it has been his style forever. Has it influenced mine? No, but I know people say it has.’Oh, look, you’re dressing alike.’ And I think, no I’m not. I’ve had this jacket for three years!”

Sure. It’s just that she hadn’t worn it ’til she realized that it matched her boyfriend’s.

Jennifer on what she’d do if she ever left acting (ahem, Angelina Jolie):

“Directing. I was very proud of producing and directing for the beautiful project ‘Five.’ Or I’d love to be a dermatologist. I’d be so obsessive about it. I’m fascinated by skin, products, and lasers. I go on the Internet and read all about it. I call it ‘laser porn.’”

Jennifer on risk-taking and paranoia and what her life’s biggest risk has been up to this point:

“I’m not sure. Just walking out of the house can be a risk!”

So, there you have it, ladies and gents. I’m waiting and wondering when we’re going to get a real, honest, candid interview from Jennifer Aniston, but I’m afraid this is it. In this case, what you see really is what you get, and if that’s a disappointment to you, let me tell you – you’re not alone.

Hey. At least she’s photogenic, right? That’s got to count for something in this business, doesn’t it?

So, a lot of you guys had some pretty strong opinions on Lana Del Rey‘s Saturday Night Live performance a few weeks ago, and while I don’t think she did as poorly as some previous performers had in the past (the ones Kristen Wiig named in the above skit, and including my own personal favorite, Ashlee Simpson), her performance will definitely go down as one of the more memorable ones, and whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing is definitely subjective. Lana’s very … unique.

In the clip above, Kristen Wiig (as Lana) chats with Seth Myers about her infamous performance, and though her impersonation was spot-on and definitely poked fun at the odd singer, she made a bunch of really good points that, yeah, maybe we should be laying off Lana, her music, and her eccentric-though-maybe-staged persona because really, who’s business is it if she’s genuine or put-on or, you know, whatever?

mean, she’s already not considering doing another album and she claims it’s because she’s already said everything she’s got to say, but we all know the probable real reason why: because people are bullies, right? But again, from Lana’s point of view, who’s business is it anyway?

Oh, of course, that’s right: it’s everyone’s business.

What do you guys think about Lana Del Ray, and do Kristen’s good points masked as mockery change your opinion even a little bit if you’re one of those who do feel negatively about her?

“It’s something I’ve wanted to do my whole life. I’ve always wanted to be young and have grey hair. To me, I’m 27, I’ve got three years left, the way I look at it, to have fun with it, because once you’re 30, you look like a right idiot walking around with like rainbow, bright color hair and all different things like that.”

Wait, what? Does that mean in three years, Kelly‘ll stop doing childish things and allegedly falling off the wagon and publicly fighting a one-sided bitch-fight with people like Christina Aguilera? LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN.

Kelly recently appeared on The Talk with her grey hair, and was naturally asked why she’d chosen to dye her hair such an “unfavorable” color. The above result is your answer, friends. She’s “always wanted to be young and have grey hair.” I guess it really is as simple as that. See, I’m twenty-eight years old and when I don’t dye it, I have a thick streak of grey in the hair framing my face. I stopped dyeing my hair about 10 months ago, and I’m totally amazed by how much grey is actually there. I enjoy it, appreciate it, embrace it. Spending the last ten months with it, I’ve found that it suits me far more than any other artificial hair color could, so I kind of understand what Kelly’s saying.

However, we’ve got to keep in mind that this is the girl who once looked like this –

- And thought it was a completely OK look.

I’ve never fully trusted her after that, and even though she and I are kind of on the same page about having grey hair at a young age, I’m glad that I’ve got the upper hand here and don’t have to beat my hair into submission for it to be grey. It’s a good look one way or the other, but when you look like one of the original Oompa Loompas –

- I think it’s high time to change your look, and maybe your medications, too.

I know – most of you guys completely disagreed with me when I’d previously said that I couldn’t understand why someone like my lady love, Rachel McAdams, would date Michael Sheen when she could have men of the likes of Ryan Gosling. And I still kind of feel that way, but only half – see, now that Ryan’s dating Eva Mendes, Rachel’s way too good for him. After much heartfelt soul-searching, I’ve come to the conclusion that I hope Ryan and Rachel never get back together. And they probably won’t, because things don’t usually turn out the way I initially want until later in the game when it’s actually the complete opposite of what I wanted, but have grown to realize that I don’t always want the things that are best for me. But I learn, you know? I live, I learn, and I’ve accepted that my one-time favorite couple isn’t going to reconcile, and I’m finally OK with it because I know that there are greener pastures out there for both of them. Well, for at least one of them, anyway. I don’t know for sure that Eva’s pasture is all that lovely and green, but I can imagine that Rachel is probably just as fresh as a daisy and as lovely as the first rose of summer.

But yes, as reported, Michael Sheen and Rachel McAdams are still together, and they’re still going places and looking happy and in love, and I know that I should be content with that, but I want more. If Rachel’s going to be with this guy for a little while longer (and based on all of the times that I’ve seen them, that’s probably the case), then I want to know more about him, guys. I want to know what he does (aside from appear in the Twilight movies, because that character he plays is just damn creepy), what he likes, and why oh why he ever decided to hook up with Kate “Bitchface Crazypants” Beckinsale. I just can’t correlate the two ladies. From Beckinsale to McAdams? From bare-faced-ness to bushy-beard-ness?

Honestly, though, I read his Wiki page, and he’s had a lot of pretty impressive accomplishments to stick under his belt, and quotes that I’ve digested word by word are pretty crafty. He seems likable, but I just don’t understand how this coupling came to be. They met on the set of Midnight in Paris back in 2010 (going on two years together, guys – that’s like, forever – and have been inseparable ever since.

I don’t know. I guess I shouldn’t complain. She could be hooking up with Adrien Brody, and I really don’t think I’d be liking that all too much. Thank God for small favors, huh?

What’s your favorite thing about Michael Sheen? Please, enlighten me.
