Pete Doherty and Kate Moss's Home Videos
Before watching this high-profile home music video, all the drug-ridden publicity and bad press that surrounds the couple started gleefully dancing about in my head. I wanted so badly to hate this video. But, I don’t. I had an entire arsenal of reasons why this video could have been anti-climactic and pointless. But in reality, it’s actually sort of charming.
Regardless of the sobriety of the rocker-meets-supermodel couple, there is some thing very sweet about the way Moss and Doherty interact with each other in this online video. This lazy-day-at-home footage shows the little moments of the couple's life that you would never read in the tabloids or see in an episode of Extra. So ignore the headlines, and cherish the moments that Moss and Doherty want to remember for themselves.

Alanis Morissette's "Lady Lumps"
After watching the first four seconds of this Black Eyed Peas cover, I knew that is was going to be an instant viral success. Why… you ask? Because this great web nation loves any video that mocks celebrity and only takes itself semi-seriously.

Holy Handcuffs Batman!
Yesterday, cameras from Late Night with Jimmy Kimmel turned away from their regularly scheduled program to catch a street performer dressed as Batman getting arrested by local police. The Dark Knight was apprehended after flipping out on union workers on strike.
What set off the man behind the mask? Porta-potties. Apparently, the rampage started when union workers refused to let the characters use their bathrooms and ended with the superhero in cuffs.

Michel Gondry Solves Rubiks With His Feet
Gondry recently released a teaser of him trying to solve a cube with his nose. But, I still can’t get over the things that this filmatic genius can do with his feet!

Anna Nicole Smith, 39, Found Dead
To pay tribute to the sex symbol turned reality star, I would like to share this video clip, starring Anna Nicole herself. I think this video of the former Playmate is a perfect example of the excessive and sultry persona that was, and still is, Anna Nicole Smith.

Justin Timberlake on SNL
Apparently, I might have been a little harsh, 'cause the boy's got some skills. Timberlake's hosting duties this Saturday included battling Santa for charitable donations while dressed as a giant Cup of Noodle, digging up some early 90’s raps like Salt 'N Pepa’s "Shoop" in order to do so. After Timberlake dressed up as a dolphin during a Flaming Lips concert, it's clear that the public doesn’t mind the pop star covering up that hot bod is a big plushie suit. But while he man-dressed-like-soup shock value is definitely worth your time, that's not the only reason to watch. Turns out that Timberlake is actually kind of funny.

Matt Damon Does Matthew McConaughey
Who knew a Southie from Boston could a do such an effective Texas Accent? Not me. Last night on Letterman, The Departed star ad-libbed McConaughey’s southern charm and willingness to appear shirtless in some behind-the-scenes commentary. To my knowledge, Damon has never worked on a flick that required him to learn some Texas slang. So this is no pre-packaged Brokeback accent. The man’s got talent. Just admit it.

Bush Girls Gone Wild
With reports of lax security and tabloid tales of nude hotel romps, the twins 25th Birthday celebration is turning into a cluster of should-they-stay-or-should they go headlines.
It was reported that after losing her phone and credits cards U.S. embassy officials "strongly suggested" President Bush's twin daughters, Jenna and Barbara Bush, cut short their trip to Buenos Aires. The American embassy refuted this claim by releasing a statement that "the embassy welcomes the visit and has provided close support and cooperation."
Regardless of the safety of the twins and the impact that there visit has been making in the lives of media thirty consumers. With splashy photos of their appearance Sunday at a big soccer match and breathless coverage of their dinner out when a fire engulfed a nearby building, it is clear that these Bush girls have Gone Wild. This user-gen mash up claims to show "the real reason the Bush twins were asked to leave Argentina"

Michael Richards Paints It Black in "Whoops Apocalypse"
Honestly, I am tired of the “racist” debate, the real question is when does comedy stop and racism begin. Regardless of his personal views, Richards’ words were conceived in hatred, and hatred is not-so-funny.
It has been a little over a week since Richards’ slur slinging viral buzz hit the web and the buzz is still ringing. After being threatened by Jamie Foxx and hiring power-publicist Howard Rubenstein to handle the backlash of his candid camera video, Richards continues to apologize for his comments.
Along with his original rant and Letterman apology, this video clip of Richards playing a blind, back man in Whoops Apocalypse (1986) has been gaining popularity on YouTube.
His tirade -not funny- but some of the media surrounding it has been. This clip being a prime example, it is inevitable that at least once in his comedic career Richards would have portrayed the minority that he had so brutally offended. Another funny viral is this user-generated rap song that plays off of Richards quote “I’m not a racist, that’s what’s so insane about it.”

Renetto Expresses His Thoughts on Commercialization
Even the YouTube "celebrities" are drowning in the content being streamed by NBC, CBS, and YouTube's many corporate channels. Can a guy with a Mac book and an idea compete with YouTube’s sponsored channels? He can’t and he won’t.
Over the past few months, Renetto and many other popular vloggers have found a home on YouTube, helped others see how valuable this new technology is, and stood up for what they believed in.
In his latest video, Renetto addresses Chad and Steve, the founders of YouTube, and expresses his personal view on the future of YouTube. Watch as Renetto vents about commercialization and the effect that sponsored channels have had on the YouTube community.

K-Fed Gets the News
What! Can you imagine being in an interview, hooked up to a wire, sitting in a room full of people and BAM! divorce. Who does that? And why is it on YouTube?
I thought an email or a message on an answering machine would be the wrong way to go. But this is disgusting. A text message! Who does that?
MOD was shooting a behind the scenes with the "rapper" on the eving the papers were filed and they seem to think that they got his office notice live on tape:
Much Music was filming a special on Kevin after his appearance on Much On Demand. This was the night before Britney filed for divorce, during dinner his demeanor changed after getting some text messages, he asked them to stop filming and didn't eat any of the food he ordered.
I don't get it. Was she sitting at home, babies in the bathtub with a pint of Ben & Jerry's on her lap, thinking to herself "I just can't do it any more. I have to tell him now." She whips out her Sidekick and Wham! K-Fed gets served.
I feel like a train crashed and everyone was ok, but you still can't stop thinking about it. This is a wreck. I don't care and neither should the web watching community.
