Your turn.

Can it be true!?

Out of the shadowy interwebz, a figure slowly emerges…

It ’s been over 2 months without a post. I know, I know. Shame. My excuse? Lack of interestingness. And time. But don’t flog me just yet…

I come bearing videos! What could be better than that?

Here’s the first: A local TV commercial for a flea market in Montgomery, Alabama. It’s just like a mini-mall.

I must admit to laughing pretty hard when I first saw the next one. But the more I listen to it, the more angry I get. It’s a disgrace to America.

I still can’t get over this next one. You just have to watch.

The Transformation

If you happen to pay any attention to the celebrity world, you probably already know about the whole Joaquin Phoenix “transformation” from actor to rapper. The whole process has been a little strange from the beginning, but Phoenix’s appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman last night topped the cake.

The appearance, in promotion for his final movie, Two Lovers, might be the most bizarre interview I’ve ever seen. Some have suggested that Joaquin is/was under the influence of drugs during this interview. But others think that the talented man was just acting to draw media buzz to himself and his new career. Here’s the video… hopefully CBS doesn’t remove it from YouTube like they have all the others:

Edit: Here is the only video that has not been removed from YouTube because CBS themselves uploaded it. Unfortunately, it’s not the full interview.

I tend to think the whole thing was fake. Either that or the man is going through more of a transition than I thought… mentally. I can’t help being reminded of oddball Andy Kaufman during this interview.

What do you think about this story? I’d love to hear your opinion.

And the Grammy Goes To…

Last night at the 51st Annual Grammy Awards, Coldplay took home three awards:

1. Song of the Year (Viva La Vida)
2. Best Rock Album
3. Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals

And here is a nice little bio of the band that aired on 60 Minutes.

Cheers!
