Jared Leto stopped by the studio of photographer/professional creep Terry Richardson yesterday to pose for some sans-shirt photos. I’ve always kind of reviled Jared and his too-serious band 30 Seconds to Mars as an example of fame gone wrong, but secretly? Some of that actually stems from the time I saw him at a party in L.A. and tried unsuccessfully to hit on him.
Basically, what happened was, after drinking $600 worth of champagne (it was a champagne launch event, I usually stick to whiskey), I looked over and saw Jared wearing some ridiculous tight-pants-and-giant-sneakers outfit and holding court in a room full of Warhols. I gasped, said “Oh my god, Jordan Catalano!” and proceeded to stare him down through drunken, half-open eyes for an hour while he talked to someone, like, much taller and blonder instead. Joke’s on you, Jared! Today I get to see you shirtless anyway.
And, hey, since we’re talking about Leto-related pet peeves? There’s an episode of My So-Called Life titled “Why Jordan Can’t Read,” during which we find out only that Jordan can’t read, but not why that is.

Axl Rose Should Take Tips From Justin Bieber- No, not just on hair-care. During a show in Berlin last night, an irate German threw a bottle and hit Axl on the noggin. Instead of pulling a Biebs and laughing it off, Axl stormed off the stage and refused to come back on. How does a 16-year-old have better manners than this guy? (via TMZ)

The other day, we came across a video of a Bosnian girl throwing a litter of puppies into the river. We decided it was far too graphic and disturbing to put up (seriously, it will make you cry and want to cuddle your co-worker, so maybe you don’t want to watch it), but now there’s been a bizarre turn of events. Director Michael Bay is offering a $50,000 bounty for anyone with information leading to the whereabouts of the girl.
A new video has gone up, supposedly from the puppy hater Katja Puschnik herself, apologizing for her behavior and offering the excuse that the dogs were ill. But Bay still wants to see her tracked down and prosecuted for her crime.
Michael Bay is a notorious jerk when it comes to humans — Megan Fox was booted from the Transformers franchise after she compared Michael to Hitler and called him “a nightmare to work with” — so it’s good to see he has a soft side.
(Also, by the way, the above photo is from MichaelBay.com, which used to be the most amazing site ever, with dozens and dozens of Michael Bay hi-res photos each more ridiculous than the last, but it’s recently been edited down. Which might be the bigger tragedy mentioned in this this post.)

This morning, Star Magazine posted quite a story: the mag claims Ashton Kutcher (@aplusk) was caught cheating on wife Demi Moore (@mrskutcher) outside the bathroom of an L.A. restaurant. Ashton immediately headed Twitter-wards to defend himself, and Demi was right behind, retweeting her hubby and adding words of encouragement.
First, Ashton had some questions for his @lawyer:
Demi consulted a few legal books herself:
Not to be outdone, Ashton invoked the Constitution:
And Demi? She just wants to exercise her right to Love:

You Think 4Chan and Reddit are the Only Forums That Are Blatantly Sexist? Check out TechCrunch – If you bemoan the lack of female entrepreneurs on the esteemed tech site, be prepared to be called the “C” word by their commenters, writes Business Insider’s Alyson Shontell. And don’t expect much sympathy from TechCrunch’s Michael Arrington, who said women should “look in the mirror” before they start pointing fingers. Uh… (via Business Insider)

The latest in “men are from Mars, women are from Planet Emotional Terrorism” news comes from British writer Hephzibah Anderson, who authored a book called Chastened: My Year Without Sex. The book, which features a virginal-looking peach on its cover, is all about how tightly-zipped pants can lead to the emotional intimacy of which most women are supposedly deprived.
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Hephzibah appeared on The Colbert Report as well, where Stephen Colbert did some of his signature teasing. The comedian called Ms. Anderson out on her lenient definition of sex – apparently the British beauty spent her supposedly sexless year rounding the first three bases, always stopping just shy of home plate.

To be fair, it was only a matter of time before someone came out with True Blood Barbies — excuse me — action figures. We’re almost surprised we didn’t see any of these miniature Bills, Sookies, or Eric’s over at Comic-Con. Lord knows why HBO is releasing figurines of their main characters with their legs covered in cement, but maybe its their secret way of telling us that they feel pretty much the same way we do about Bill and Sookie (that they belong at the bottom of the ocean). Eric is cool though. He can fly.
Why else would Life & Style be reporting that HBO execs noted in their press release that Stephen Moyer, Anna Paquin, and Alexander Skarsgard didn’t even bother posing for the dolls? That seems like a pretty self-defeating PR campaign. Also, wee’re pretty sure if we just take our old Spike figures from Buffy and draw darker hair on our Edward Cullen dolls we’d end up with almost the same exact result as these things. Guys, it’s time for a new shtick besides “hot vampires.”

It isn’t news that many supermodels have had work done, but this Shopped photo of Victoria Secret model Adriana Lima definitely takes the idea of a nose job to its illogical extreme. Freaking News has a whole gallery of user-submitted Photoshops where you can see Morgan Freeman, Hayden Panatierre and Alec Baldwin sans schnozes.

The Daily WTF: Nose Job Overload

My god, have you guys heard that some crazy person named James Jay Lee has taken over the Discovery Channel building in Silver Springs, MD with explosives strapped to his chest? This is particularly terrifying because my dad lives/works right around there, but is just generally f*cked up because who holds Discovery Channel employees hostage?? The same guy who’s held protests there in the past, apparently, and whose manifesto includes lines like “All programs on Discovery Health-TLC must stop encouraging the birth of any more parasitic human infants and the false heroics behind those actions,”
and
“Youre also going to find solutions for unemployment and housing. All these unemployed people makes me think the US is headed toward more war.”
Oh also, one of his biggest influences is Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, just in case you automatically assumed this was some right-wing nutjob.
James is making those tea party protesters look positively civil. We’ll be updating this story as we get more information.
