OK!’s Tacky Michael Jackson Cover

OK! magazine reportedly paid $500,000 for exclusive rights to a photo of Michael Jackson taken in his final minutes, while paramedics tried to resuscitate him. And they call this a tribute issue?

Pop the hood if you really want to see the tasteless image.

Marquis Daniels Makes Ron Artest Sound Like Rakim

Q6 (Marquis Daniels of Indiana Pacers) (Ft. Lil Boosie) - “Mouthpiece”
NBA season is over. Silly season — a part of the year where NBA players make headlines for important things like smoking weed or rapping over tinkerbell beats — is now in session. Case in point: Here’s soon-to-be ex-Pacer Marquis Daniels spends much of his downtime crafting rap songs that make Ron Artest sound like Rakim. It’s not like Q6 has a team to go back to (for now) anyway, as the Pacers have decided to cut him loose. The less said about Lil Boosie, the better.

The Strangest Michael Jackson Photo Ever

jackobug

Rumor has it Michael Jackson was a strange fella. This photo obtained by Radar shows the King of Pop sleeping in something known as a hyperbaric chamber in 1986 or so.

Says Radar:

Hyperbaric chambers are used for hyperbaric oxygen therapy and treat the body with 100 percent oxygen at greater than normal pressure. The chamber is used in treating carbon monoxide poisoning and a number of other conditions. Saturating the body with oxygen has been found to have a number of possible health benefits and studies are ongoing involving the use of the chamber to treat various conditions.

At the time the photo of Jackson in the chamber was taken he was said to be sleeping in it regularly. He was at the height of his fame and loved the mystery and speculation that followed publication of the photo by the National Enquirer, according to a source close to the situation.

Supposedly, the hyperbaric therapy thing was part of his plan to live to 150. Jackson died at age 50 on June 25th, 2009.

Hurricane Chris Sets Black Music Back 500 Years

*Facepalm*

I won’t even bother wasting words on this one. This is a new low, even for the loonies at the Lousiana House. All I can say is watch the video, slap yourself, then watch it again just to make sure.

Do. Not. Want.

ti-and-tiny

The rescue-dog fanatics at PETA are desperate for a new publicity stunt. Hoping to cash-in on T.I.’s fame and faux image overhaul, they’ve asked the Rubberband Man to pose nude for their ‘I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur’ campaign. “We’re asking T.I. to use his fame and his experiences to bare the truth about the fur industry by baring his skin,” said PETA Executive Vice President, Tracy Reiman. Proceed to see contents of the letter PETA wrote to T.I.P.

Ron Artest Hearts Eminem

How’s this for randomness? Ron Artest quietly debuted a tribute track titled “Eminem” on his GooTube channel. Please excuse me while I go file this one under ‘unintentional comedy.’ I blame Lil Wayne for this f-ckery.

I Guess I’m Coked Up Now

red_bull_cola

I’ve been drinking Red Bull Cola lately, because I’m broker than Sean Price and can’t afford the real deal. Well, the Germans are now saying that they’ve found traces of cocaine in Red Bull Cola. I’m sorry, what? Does this mean I’m coked up? Let’s investigate.

Sez the old reliables at BBC:

The authorities in six German states have ordered retailers to stop selling Red Bull Cola energy drinks after traces of cocaine were found in it.

Red Bull says b-b-ut it’s only a small trace:

“Decocainized coca leaf extracts are used as flavoring in food products around the world and are considered to be safe,” Red Bull said in a statement Tuesday. It cited a Food and Drug Administration code that lists de-cocainized coca leaf as a safe, natural extractive.”

Eh, isn’t that like saying it’s coffee but de-caffeinated coffee? Germany isn’t buying it. They’ve already started clearing their shelves and a ban is in order.

Meanwhile, the Bolivians are laughing their asses off:

Bolivians have tried to get the world to understand that the leaf is not a drug if it’s not put through the extensive chemical process that yields cocaine.

Bottom line: The amount of cocaina in Red Bull Cola is harmless. You can’t fail a drug test by drinking these things. Well, unless you drink thousands of them, in which case you’ll probably fail at everything. Now if only they can figure out why it tastes like dog shit.
