fracas


Blogtoplist is my new best friend.

I’m thinking of planning a slumber party for all the great people who’ve been clicking over  from the blogtoplist site.

We’ll do facials, paint our toenails, jump around on the bed in cute and flimsy little babydoll pyjamas, write scented love letters to a list of our boyfriends that we carry around in our wallet like credit cards, attempt to pierce someone’s ears and taunt her to smoke (thus getting sick), drink liquor from a bottle we pass around, make fun of said girl who gets sick from smoking and ear piercing (with naught but an ice cube to freeze the delicate lobes), make fun of same girl for being a virgin, sing about Troy Donohue and then… when there can be no more fun to be had in one girl’s bedroom, we’ll sneak out (or at least one of us will) to meet up with those bad boys in the leather jackets so we (or at least one of us) can have sex with one of them and then think we’re pregnant so that everyone will make fun of us. Oh that karma. She’s a bitch.

What?

All that’s been done before?

Shit.

Grease photo slumber party

Never you mind.

I’m still having a blog slumber party for all the good folks who’ve clicked over here from blogtoplist

On Friday, September 14, 2007, all posts from 6:00 pm Saskatchewan time (GMT-06:00) will be slumber party posts dedicated to the folks using blogtoplist to get to fracas.

Oh, the rest of you can come too… but you might have to be the guys climbing the trellis because you’ve planned some silly panty raid.

It’s my little way of saying thanks for the clicks in the past few days.

Mark it on your calendars!



Britney Spears needs your cash.

Indeed. I read it at TMZ, so it must be true, right? TMZ has announced the end of Britney’s career in this RIP post.  Her incredibly bad performance at the MTV VMA’s has got the entertainment world talking… and mocking. AP Music Writer Nekesa Mumbi Moody wrote:

    “As in most train wrecks, it was hard to focus on just one thing as the Britney Spears disaster unfolded on MTV’s Video Music Awards. There was just so much that went wrong.Out-of-synch lip-synching. Lethargic movements that seemed choreographed by a dance instructor for a nursing home. The paunch in place of Spears’ once-taut belly. At times she just stopped singing, as if even she knew nothing could save her performance.”

Prior to that, and right out of the starting gate, VMA Host Sarah Silverman mocked Spears after her performance. Silverman is quoted as saying:

    “Wasn’t that incredible? Britney Spears, everyone. Wow. She is amazing. She is 25-years-old and she’s already accomplished everything she’s going to accomplish in her life. It’s mind blowing.”

Those of you who didn’t watch the show, please feel free to watch the youtube clip of her performance for yourself. It is painful. I don’t think she deserves so much criticism for her physical appearance. Truly, she doesn’t look as bad as people are saying, but the performance was really bad.

She’s being flogged with the proverbial wet noodle for not being prepared.

Fracas wonders if it isn’t so much that, as maybe she was under the influence of something? At times like the little stumble at the beginning she seems even unsteady on her feet. Later, she is helped down one level by male dancers. It appears that she actually needs the help down, not just that it’s part of the choreography.

And then there’s the whole lip synch issue. It appears to be a case of it.

Sorry Brit. I’m behind you on the, “Don’t make fun of my body, I still look better than tons of people who’ve had two kids.” Making fun of womens’ bodies is something I don’t think is a very intelligent thing to do. It’s not the main problem with her performance so to pick at her when she still looks better than the average person, is just cat crap.

But Brit… honey. You know I’ve defended you before, but I just can’t back you up on the whole, “I might’ve been flying high on something for that show.” I hope that wasn’t the case, but if not… girl, you got some ’splainin to do.

So perhaps, like TMZ suggests, Britney will have to seek a nice resting place for her career? I don’t know. Maybe all she has to do is leak some totally naked photos, like Vanessa Hudgens. I mean, I know there’s all those crotch shots out there, but something tells me if she leaked a full on look-at-me-ma-no-clothes photo, she’d be rolling in the googles once again.

If not, well then, her adoring and loyal fans will just have to set up a trust fund for her.

And she’ll need your cash.

I’m sure you don’t mind.

Christina Aguilera is pregnant, Paris Hilton has a big mouth.

It seems Paris Hilton doesn’t just make people sick, she also has a big mouth. According to Chocolate, (The magazine that’s better than sex)

    “The celebrities were partying at the Luxor hotel’s LAX Nightclub this weekend when Hilton grabbed the mic and congratulated “pregnant” Aguilera as the singer and her husband Jordan Bratman watched in shock.

    Hilton said: “Congratulations to the most beautiful pregnant woman in the world. You’re gorgeous.”

    Christina is yet to confirm her pregnancy.”

The story was also reported by TMZ. It isn’t the first time Paris has opened her mouth only to have stupidity come out. Does anyone remember her post-jail interview with Larry King?

Fracas really has only one pressing question about all of this, and that is…

Since talking really doesn’t seem to be her “thing”, why can’t someone find Paris a better pastime for her mouth?



Tsk Tsk Vanessa Hudgens. More nude photos?

It seems that Vanessa couldn’t possibly have been taking advice from Antonella Barba, for in this newest tidbit of information, we learn there’s a possibility that Vanessa (who is currently 18 years old) sent similar photos to a boyfriend she had when she was 16. Heck, Antonella didn’t even do that until this past year’s American Idol show, so perhaps it was Antonella taking advice from Vanessa?

    Hudgens at centre of new nude allegations

    By ninemsn staff
    Teen star Vanessa Hudgens has again sparked a whirlwind of publicity amid new allegations she sent naked pictures of herself to a Nickelodeon actor two years ago.Hudgens made headlines last week when a different nude pic — meant for her High School Musical co-star and current boyfriend Zac Efron — was released on the web.She apologised for that indiscretion, but now it seems Hudgens may have done the same thing when she was only 16.Hudgens reportedly sent some racy self-portraits to Drake and Josh star Drake Bell during a short stint playing his onscreen girlfriend.Bell’s agent Jill Fritz has denied the reports in People magazine.read more…

It seems TMZ is also offering the same story

I have to take a moment to say one thing about this to all the celebrity blogs and out-the-idiot type sites that exist online today.

If this turns out to be true, and if there are photos from that epsiode out there somewhere, please… don’t post them. The current ones are borderline enough with her only 18. If there exists photos from two years ago… for heaven sakes… use better judgement than she had, and don’t post them.

Thanks.



Eugene Montross at the VMA Awards

Gads. I’m learning so much these last few days. First, I learned who Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron were. Tonight, I’ve heard there’s a buzz about some Eugene Montross character.

Over at mtvu.com, there’s an interview with Travis from Gym Class Heroes. Travis was asked:

    Q: Any random messages or tips you’d like to give to mtvU watchers?

and Travis replied:

    A: EUGENE MONTROSS IS COMIN’!

So I, like any good writer of an entertainment blog, wanted to know…

Who the hell is Eugene Montross?

Heck.. who are the Gym Class Heroes?

You see, I’m old. How am I supposed to know who the Gym Class Heroes are? I barely know where to find the rheumatiz medicine when I need it. Heck.. I’ve looked all over creation for that damn jug with the XXX on it, and frac if I can find it.

I’m not doing so well. Finding Vanessa links  was a whole lot easier than figuring out who Eugene Montross is. You might have to do with this photo of Granny Clampett… although I’m pretty sure she’s not Eugene Montross, she might know where that rheumatiz medicine is. I sure as frac could use a dose right now.

Because I’m such an old fart, the good folks at mtvu.com helped me out by offering this write-up prior to the interview.

    “Mixing rap, rock, R&B, funk, pop and just about anything else, Gym Class Heroes have a sound that is based in hip-hop but explodes with live instrumentation and a zeal for anything that tickles their fancy. The Geneva, N.Y., group’s origins lie in, go figure, high school gym class, where frontman Travis McCoy met drummer Matt McGinley. The addition of guitarist Disashi Lumumba-Kasongo and bassist Eric Roberts completed the group, which has developed its sound through incessant touring. With the summer’s Warped Tour behind them and their second full-length, “As Cruel As School Children,” burning up hipster headphones, Travis parked his butt in the mtvU Hot Seat to answer our burning questions.”

So ok, now to figure out this Eugene thing. Apparently, someone at the MTV VMA Awards was wearing a shirt that referred to Eugene Montross, and now the world (or more correctly, the portion of the world that might be interested in the music world, or more specifically, the music world as it is related to MTV) is trying to figure out who the hell Eugene Montross is.

There’s a site called eugenemontross.com, but there’s nothing really there. Over at fluxblog.org, the September 9 entry (a play by play of the MTV VMA Awards) has a 10:18 entry that reads:

    “Who is Eugene Montross?” Sorry bro, but I’m not Googling that!

I, not being too proud to Google, did Google that, and it seems that Eugene Montross is someone (or not someone but a scheme we are not yet to know of. Worn as a slogan on a shirt at the MTV VMA Awards, Eugene will I’m sure, present himself when the time is right.

In other words, Eugene Montross is some kind of marketing scheme.

If you happen to know otherwise, please do post a comment. I might even have some rheumatiz medicine for you if you do.
