Vanity Fair Covers The New Yorker



I'm glad someone was bold enough to point out the geriatric elephant in the room. John McCain is old as hell! He's turning 72 in August. The media has really turned a blind eye to all of his senior moments/election blunders. Its cool and kinda funny now, but can taxpayers really afford those "whoopsies" when he gets into office? That cost us big these past 8 years. Honestly, I'd prefer someone who can hit the ground running, not hit the ground and break their hip. Jesus be Fixodent all around him. Read more about the Vanity Fair spoof here.

New Video: Amy Winehouse-Just Friends

alt : http://www.youtube.com/v/zBMbggUwmOg&hl=en


Can I share something with you? This video kinda creeps me out. It gives me this weird Selena "If I could Fall In Love" in-memorium feelings.  I know this sounds fucked up, but I mean this with all sincerity. I really hope Amy Winehouse gets off crack soon. Forreal.

Estelle Getty (Sophia from 'Golden Girls') Dies at 84



Source

Estelle Getty, who played meddling mother Sophia on "The Golden Girls," died Tuesday morning. She was 84. Getty, who suffered from advanced dementia, died around 5:30 a.m. Tuesday at her Hollywood Boulevard home, said her son, Carl Gettleman of Santa Monica .

Getty won an Emmy Award in 1988 for her portrayal of the feisty octogenarian. For her role as Sophia, Getty also notched a Golden Globe Award in 1986. She also received an American Comedy Award. Getty co-starred on "Golden Girls" from 1985-92 and reprised the tart-tongued Sophia on four other TV series: "The Golden Palace ," "Nurses," "Empty Nest" and "Blossom." Getty was two months younger than Bea Arthur, who played her daughter, but the illusion of her age was maintained through makeup, costume and her deportment.

In similar vein of take-no-prisoners elder, Getty played Sylvester Stallone's domineering mother, Tutti Bomowski, in "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot." Generically, it was a battling-buddy movie whose comic thrust was the diminutive Getty's bossing around her L.A. lawman son. Getty was 47 when she got her first significant role in an off-Broadway musical: She gained immediate prominence when she played in the Pulitzer Prize-winning play "Torch Song Trilogy," playing Harvey Fierstein's acidic mother.

She played Grandma Estelle Little in "Stuart Little" in 1999, and more recently played Sister Roseanne" in "The Million Dollar Kid." She also appeared on "Hollywood Squares" in 1998.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle a dirty black motherfucker. Did Wendy Williams actually try to call someone out on the "Angry Black Woman" stereotype? Her weave must be limiting blood flow to her brain. She's obviously forgotten where and who she was. Her show is on FOX! Does she think they put her on there to celebrate her as an intelligent black queen.  Naw bitch! The audience cherishes and anticipates when Wendy bares her claws. The only woman more socially deplorable than Wendy Williams is Tiffany "New York" Pollard and I don't think the Fox audience could stomach her. She should have known better to even bring that broad on her show. She was promoting a book about being a bitch. Did Wendy think they were going to talk about babies and pinafores? Game recognize game and you got sonned. Thats your bad.
