Jimmy Kimmel gets his revenge... at last!



Okay, Jimmy Kimmel has pulled out all the stops to get back at his lady love Sarah Silverman and Matt Damon by making his response video heretofore known as "I'm f*cking Ben Affleck". Jimmy called in all his favors to put this little ditty together - and his friends celebrate him coming out of the closet with his beau Ben with a "We are the world" parody video. Look for Harrison Ford, Robin Williams, Joel & Benji Madden, Brad Pitt, Rebecca Romijn, Christina Applegate, Meatloaf, Pete Wentz, Cameron Diaz, Huey Lewis, Macy Gray, Joan Jett and my personal favorite guest star, Josh Groban. I lost my cookies when Josh started belting out his verse. I'm sure I missed a few cameos - but who could count em all? I think Jimmy has settled the score.... for now. I can't wait to see what's next.

Stradivarius saves the day!

My oh my. Imagine falling down the stairs when you're rushing downstairs in a hurry... and you trip and fall. Not only do you fall... but you land on your million-dollar violin. What are the odds? Ask David Garrett, concert violinist, he knows all too well.

Virtuoso musician David Garrett smashed a $1 million (£540,000) violin when he fell over after a concert in London over Christmas, he has revealed. "I fell down a flight of stairs and landed on my violin case," he told the BBC. "When I opened it up, it was a total mess."

The star said his accident came as he tried to make an early getaway from the Barbican Centre last year.

"I left the concert after the first half because my family was there and we wanted to grab dinner," he said. "The stairs were very slippery and I still had my concert shoes on. I had my violin over my shoulder, but I slipped and landed on my violin case. I'm not happy about it at all, but it kind of saved my life."  Source

I took violin lessons for years as a kid and played on a copy of a Stradavarius. It was about 50 years old and if I would have so much as scratched it, my mom would've killed me. I can't imagine smashing a 200+ year old nearly priceless instrument - it makes my stomach hurt. I suppose his ticket prices are about to double triple etc... to pay for his little misstep.

Ever wondered what your favorite pop song would look like illustrated Excel style by your secretary or your accountant? Well now you know!  I picked a few of my favorites to share...

John Lennon would love this...


This little boy from Korea named Hero is channeling decades worth of Beatlemania in his little 2 year old body. He treats us to his adorable rendition of Hey Jude... and let me tell ya, not bad at all. So cute. I think I'm overloading on cuteness today... must be the rainy weather keeping me in the house.... and on the internet. Anyways... if you want a little more info on little Hero - here's another video it's in Korean but you get the gist. Get ready Korean Idol 2015!

Great Googly Moogly!


Can I just say that I love Flickr. I ran across this Googly Eye Project Pool which consists of inanimate objects eyeballing you with those goofy googly eyes. I adore the breakfast picture... I certainly wouldn't want to wake up to that on any given morning! See the gallery here. Oddly charming.

Jimmy Kimmel vs. Matt Damon - Jimmy's revenge.

In the previous post, Jimmy Kimmel's lady love, Sarah Silverman declared that she is gettin busy with Mr. Matt Damon. The hilarious video was on Jimmy's anniversary show earlier in the month. Well... Jimmy can't let those sleeping dogs lie. Page Six reports that he is planning his own video announcing his unusual sleeping arrangements with none other than Mr. Damon's significant other, Ben Affleck.

Now Kimmel is striking back with a song called "I'm [bleep]ing Ben Affleck." Our source told us the video for this song, set to the theme of "We Are the World," will star Affleck, Robin Williams, Don Cheadle, Harrison Ford, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz.

I guess I'll be TIVOing Jimmy til this one airs. Matt vs. Jimmy is my new favorite celebrity feud. To see their feud in it's entirety... check it out here

Sarah Silverman is my idol.



Sarah Silverman is my idol, mostly because she's f*cking Matt Damon... but also cuz she's just balls out crazy. This video is from last night's episode of her boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel's talk show honoring his 5th anniversary on the show. Jimmy likes to joke about Matt and how they've run out of time to have him on the show... so Sarah decided to run with the joke, and she ran and ran and ran. She decided to make him a little jealous by showing him just how much time SHE had for Matt Damon. BRILLIANT. Matt is hilarious in this video too. I totally laughed out loud the first three times I watched it. Enjoy!

Bug Sex 101 with the most beautiful girl in the world.


That crazy Isabella Rossellini... she sure does have the real-deal artistic blood coursing through her veins. Why else would she concieve, direct and act in a series of shorts depicting the odd ways bugs have sex? Whaaa?

Green Porno is a series of very short films conceived, written, co-directed by and featuring Isabella Rossellini about the sex life of bugs, insects and various creatures. The films are a comical but insightful study of the curious ways certain bugs “make love”. “Green” echoes the ecological movement of today and our interest in nature, and “Porno” alludes to the racy ways bugs, insects and other creatures have sex, if human, these acts would not be allowed to be screened or air on television, considered instead as most filthy and obscene.
