Khloe Kardashian is the latest celebrity to strip for animal rights. She appears in a new billboard for PETA proclaiming the now-familiar tag line: “Fur? I’d rather go naked.”
She commented:
“Compassion is the fashion this holiday season, so join me in boycotting fur,” says Khloe. “With all the stylish and super-warm things you can wear, it’s easy to have a killer look without killing animals.”
Looks like Kim isn’t the only sister with that killer Kardashian booty! I’m not sure what’s up with Khloe’s hair, though.
You’ve probably already seen the FunnyorDie video “Prop 8 – The Musical.” Even if you have, it’s worth another look. Written by Marc Shaiman (Hairspray), the video takes on last month’s successful ballot proposition that outlawed same-sex marriage in California.
The cast is impressive, but Shaiman admits it was a bit random.
“We filmed it on a Monday. If you couldnt be there on Monday from 11-4, you couldnt be in it, Shaiman explained. If wed done it on Tuesday, it might have had a completely different cast.
The end result was this pretty amazing ensemble cast:
California Gays and The People That Love Them: Jordan Ballard, Margaret Cho, Barrett Foa, J.B. Ghuman, John Hill, Andy Richter, Maya Rudolph, Rashad Naylor, Nicole Parker
Proposition 8′ers and The People That Follow Them: Prop 8 Leader- John C. Reilly Prop 8 Leader’s #1 Wife- Allison Janney Prop 8 Leader’s #2 Wife- Kathy Najimy Riffing Prop 8′er-Jenifer Lewis A Preacher- Craig Robinson Scary Catholic School Girls From Hell-Rashida Jones, Lake Bell, Sarah Chalke
The Frightened Villagers: Katharine “Kooks” Leonard, Seth Morris, Denise “Esi!” Piane, Lucian Piane, Richard Read, Seth Redford, Quinton Strack, Tate Taylor
Jesus Christ: Jack Black
A Very Smart Fellow: Neil Patrick Harris
As for Shaiman’s part, he both enjoys and fears the publicity this video has generated.
Im scared…[1.3 million views in barely a day] feels good, until I read some of the angrier comments left by some very angry people. Then I think, well, maybe I shouldnt leave the house. Ill just stay on Funny or Die.
As long as he continues making more videos, I’m cool with that.
The lovely Charlize Theron has been named the latest United Nations Messenger of Peace by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. Her specific work will center around ending violence against women.
According to the UN’s website:
The actor has been recognized for her work focusing attention and mobilizing efforts on social issues, particularly in her native South Africa, where she has the Africa Outreach Project, which provides funding for a mobile health and computer clinic that visits high schools in rural communities affected by HIV/AIDS.
Other actors who are also UN Messengers of Peace include George Clooney and Michael Douglas.
Well, it’s looks like Obama’s road to the White House isn’t going to be a walk in the park. He is apparently not willing to douse the rumors that he is NOT in fact a ‘natural-born’ US citizen.
Was Obama born in Kenya or not? If the answer is no and he has a valid US birth certificate, why won’t he just produce it and be done with the whole thing? If the answer is yes, then he cannot constitutionally be in office.
“Should Senator Obama be discovered, after he takes office, to be ineligible for the Office of President of the United Statesof America and, thereby, his election declared void, Petitioners, as well as other Americans, will suffer irreparable harm in that (a) usurper will be sitting as the President of the United States, and none of the treaties, laws, or executive orders signed by him will be valid or legal,” the action challenges.
In this video, Barack Obama’sgrandmother says that he was in fact born in Kenya. Hhhmmmm, this could get very interesting.
Former VP candidate Sarah Palin takes some time off after the difficult 2008 Elections. Nothing is better than the Miami weather to relax and work on a tan. Cold Alaska is just too small for super hot Palin!
Palin’s casual wear shocked me a bit! I wasn’t expecting to see her by the pool in some really short shorts and pink shirt! I’m sure you guys wouldn’t mind seeing Palin in a bikini! Oh please, no!! The lady needs her dignity.
Election Day is finally here, folks, and the news is already flying fast and furious around the ‘net. Here’s a sampling of what’s going on with your favorite celebrities on this historic day.
Actor Tim Robbins was turned away from the polls in New York this morning, and didn’t like it one bit.
Pete Wentz and Diddy have cast their votes. Also doing their civic duty: Matthew Broderick, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Conan O’Brien.
Oprah Winfrey has already picked out her inauguration gown.
Sarah Palin (Tina Fey) and the real John McCain use the only airtime they can afford to get your vote at the QVC channel via SNL. As always Tina was fabulous (love the Palin in 2012 t-shirt!) and I was completely surprised by John McCains performance. McCain was cool, calm and actually funny I didnt know he could be funny!! LOL
McCains wife Cindy makes a special appearance as the jewelry lady! She does look good on TV. And I feel embarrassed to admit I would actually buy the limited edition of Joe action figures: Joe The Plumber, Joe Six-pack and Joe Biden!!!
Loved it! I think McCains appearance on SNL was probably more productive than the Obamas infomercial, which put me to sleep instantly!!
John McCain’s strategies at SNL’s Weekend Update after the jump… (Read the article)
In this version of 5 Friends Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Snoop Dogg, Harrison Ford, Julia Roberts, Ben Stiller, Will Smith, Steven Spielberg, and Justin Timberlake, (and many others) encourage everyone to get out the vote. Go to Declare Yourself to find out all your votiing information.
I really like this one. Tom not understanding that he has to say Don’t Vote to get people to vote. Make sure you listen and VOTE!
Will Ferrell and Tina Fey reunited for the SNLWeekend Update Thursdays to play President Bush and ‘hot lady’Â Sarah Palin. Once again Tina nailed it, while Will finally came back from the dead to do something worth watching for at least 5 minutes (excuse me! I’m not a fan!).
At the very end of the sketch, when Darrell Hammond as John McCain arrives with Todd in his snowmobile gear, it just gets pretty uncomfortable. Of course Palin’s winks and sexy poses save the situation. It was funny but it still didn’t beat the Joe Biden and Palin’s debate skit!
As though Bono doesn’t have enough stages on which to flap his jaw, he has now been offered the opportunity to become a columnist for the venerable New York Times. A spokesperson said:
“We have asked Bono to write an occasional column for the paper next year, covering a range of subjects, but are still finalizing the details.”
Bono would write six to ten pieces for the Op-Ed page, focusing on his “longtime pet causes” – Africa and global poverty.
If he were paid for the gig (and that’s not clear yet), the funds would be donated directly to his charity.
In my opinion, this is the newspaper version of stunt casting. Is the Times that desperate for readership?
