Athletes Feeling Celeb Stalker Pinch

Today’s discovery of an alleged stalker living in the home of a famous NBA player only bolsters the tried and true adage of stalkers being synonymous with fame. Dirk Nowitzki, a forward for the Dallas Mavericks, discovered 37 year old Cristal Taylor living in Nowizki’s home while dueling the Denver Nuggets on the road. While it still remains unclear what Nowitzki’s relationship with Taylor entailed, one thing is clear in the media, creepy hangers on equal inches in the gossip rags even for niche celebs like professional athletes (Kobe Bryant, of course, not withstanding).

Just weeks ago U.S. Olympian Shawn Johnson nearly came face to face with her alleged stalker, 34 year old Robert Ryan, while taping Dancing with the Stars in Los Angeles. Shortly after, TMZ captured a snark-tastic Cedric Yarbrough of Reno 911! fame lamented his personal lack of such an enthusiastic, restraining order eschewing fan of his own. Lighthearted guffaws aside, the list of stalked celebs in the news is endless and never out of style.

It’s an easy formula. A celebrity, no matter the genre, is stalked to the point of law enforcement intervention, searches spike, interests are piqued and the common man can enjoy a little peeping tom action of their own. It wouldn’t surprise us here if suddenly the Los Angeles craigslist boards were suddenly rife with anonymous requests for a discreet (but dedicated!) stalker for hire. Sorry, bail not provided.

Who Did The Bachelor Pick, 2009?

by Alex Becker on March 2, 2009

Mr. Jason Mesnick, the single father who was the Bachelor all season of 2008-2009 finally picked the “love of his life” tonight. Actually, he did so twice picking Melissa Rycroft, a former Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader, originally then changes his mind and goes with Molly Malaney, a girl I actually went to College with at Indiana University.

“I’m going to be a Mesnick!”

Melissa said before she, Jason, and his son Ty executed a carefree jump into a pool in formal wear. Well that was short lived as this show hit another all time low flip flopping from one girl to another. What is this world coming to? What are your thoughts on the drama that was who won the bachelor 2009?

American Idol 2009 Rules

by Rex Freiberger on February 19, 2009

What is the deal with American Idol’s 2009 elimination rules? Now they are only letting the top female, top male and next highest vote getter advance to the next round. This seems a bit extreme. I mean why put so many people through the rounds if the show is going going to cut the all so quickly.

As opposed to the past two seasons, this year there will be no “Idol Gives Back” episode, but instead producers have brought back the fan favorite Wild Card Round, with the Top 12 finalists decided by March 10th. I understand the effort to try to change things up and keep the show current, but when American Idol loses talented singers in the process it sort of defeats the purpose.

Madcon Beggin’ Video

by Rex Freiberger on February 17, 2009

Hands down this is the illest song out right now. I say song because the video game aspect of the video almost ruins the whole soul Gnarls Barkly/Cee Lo referenc I was going to make. Also, embedding has been disabled so you’ll have to click play and then the video again and it will take you to Youtube to watch.

Joaquin Phoenix Letterman

by Alex Becker on February 13, 2009

omg_is_joaquin_phoenix_high_on_lettermanHi, I’m Joaquin Phoenix and I have left Planet Earth. This was the absurd, quasi interview that took place on Letterman February 11th, 2009. To be honest, I really starting feeling bad for him, Dave was a little harsh in my opinion. The guy clearly has something going on with him and is unstable.

What do you think about Joaquin Phoenix’s visit to Earth (last joke I promise). Do you think that this is just a phase or that he needs some help? Do you think he has a drug problem or serious stress or something? Is he collapsing under the weight of his own fame like Owen Wilson almost did? Honestly, I don’t think I would believe that he isn’t after seeing that video and I personally love him as an actor. Is he rapping now or is that just a rumor?

Continental Plane Crash Buffalo, NY

by Alex Becker on February 13, 2009

Late Thursday, February 12, 2009 a commuter plane crashed killing 49 people making it the first fatal plane crash in the United States of America since August 27, 2006. It was a connecting flight on Continental Airlines Flight #3407 that was flying from Newark that eventually went down in Clarence, NY. Apparently the plane wasn’t “spiraling out of control” it just appeared to be flying low according to witnesses.

The plane crashed into a home around 10:20pm local time and lit up the whole sky a bright orange color that could be seen as far as a mile away. The noise and after effect was compared to that of an “earthquake” by someone 3/4 a mile from the scene of the accident.

The flight was carrying 44 passengers and 4 crew members none of which survived the crash. In addition, one person on the ground was among the killed. Continental has made no formal comment on the crash and will be investigating the events that occurred starting bright and early Friday morning.

My deepest condolences to the friends and families of the victims.

Mafia Lending Services

by Alex Becker on February 13, 2009

I saw this today and I had to make a post about it. First of all, the main “Italian” is Neil Garguilo. He is an up-and-coming actor who lives in Hollywood, likes ponies, and enjoys smelling things. No but in all seriousness, this is a great short and I’m curious to see if you like it as much as I do.

So what do you think? Is his girlfriend too pretty or not pretty enough? (last 10 seconds, classic)
