What is a playboy mouth?



I've been listening to Lady Gaga non stop the past few weeks. As much as I wanted to despise her platinum blonde wigs, cubism inspired outfits and her dry humping stage antics, I cant. Her catchy beats and repeating chorus' and sexual lyrics got me hooked. Her album is decent and I plan to blast it throughout Miami when I arrive (t-minus 2 days). Check out an appearance from Chace Crawford because he is looking especially nice in his underwear. If you enjoy Poker Face i suggest you check out Just Dance and I Like It Rough.

A+B Conversation: Keeping Up with the Joneses


Alex O. and Monica B. discuss the awesomeness of Rashida Jones, Tupac, and hilariously sad pictures from the late '90s.

A: NOOOOOO! John Krasinski and Emily Blunt pictures. I wanted them to not be together. I wanted him to be like, "I've met her once at the Oscars and that's it. I've never even had lunch with her."
B: Show me.
A: http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/30730494.html
B: Would you rather him and Rashida? Cause that girl gets me mad with all the dudes she gets.
A: True. I want to be her so bad. Her dad's the shit, she went to Harvard for some bullshit major, her sister almost married Tupac...
B: Whhaaaaat?
A: Hmm?
B: Ok, Quincy and Harvard is whatever, but Tupac? So lucky. Well... not really.
A: Just really cool. Tupac my brother in law, coming over for Thanksgiving.
B: Teaching the philosophy of Thug Life.
A: Yeah, my kids need to know that. And she's stunning. And what is with her hair? It's like she has that nice hair. It always looks good.
B: "Later, Kidada dated Tupac Shakur who, incidentally, was on his way to pick her up when he was gunned down." Damn.
A: I'd be pissed. "I can't believe he stood me up blah blah. Oh wait..."
B: OMG best pic ever.

Bijou Phillips, Nicole Richie, and Kidada Jones

B: Rich girl party.
A: LOL
B: I bet they're singing along to some Ja Rule song.
A: So baby gurl put it on meeeeeeee.
B: What would i be without my baybeeeeeeeeh.
A: Damn, Quincy has a lot of kids.
B: I'm still staring at that pic. Too funny. Nicole Richie has a damn choker on.
A: With my 100 dollar weed shirt.
B: Watch it be Dior.

R.I.P Bettie Paige


As I sit here packing my things at hotel in Washington D.C., I begin to think about my style choices. I'm no trend setter since all my clothes consist of shades of gray, black, white, and navy with the exception of my leopard dress. What prompted me to get this dress? While I was shopping away with some long overdue payback money, I decided I needed to get something that expressed my sexuality, femininity, and would make anyone's head turn in a room. So I opted for the extremely short, cleavage bearing dress. It was as if Forever 21, American Apparel, and a local zoo had a baby and out came my dress. I realized that the culture I've been exposed to made me pick this dress. I channeled my inner Bettie Paige in hopes of seducing a random stranger and later taking him to my secret love dungeon. She has inspired me to be comfortable with my body which is probably why I walk around half naked in my dorm and at home. There is nothing wrong with channeling your inner sex kitten and I thank Bettie Page for that. It is sort of tragic that she went through such an awful time in her life being schizophrenic and all but I will remember the Bettie Paige that I was first introduced to, that inspired me to vamp it up once in a while. Now if I can only get myself out of the house in that dress instead of wearing it inside by myself.

Happy birthday, my little Nazi!


So a ShopRite in Pennsylvania refused to personalize a birthday cake for a 3 year old. Why? They named the boy Adolf Hitler Campbell.

Really? REALLY? OK, fuck the cake for a minute. Let's talk about why in the hell you would name your kid not just Adolf, but Adolf Hitler. I can't even wrap my mind around this. By all means, cut through the bullshit and be honest and upfront with your racism, but damn, that kid will never be able to make it in the real world. What if he goes through some life changing moment like Edward Norton in American History X and ends up not hating minorities. Or what if he falls in love with a black girl à la Neo Ned? Poor kid's gonna have to live in his little white nationalist bubble forever.

Wanna know what's worse? Little Adolf's baby sister is named JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell. I know.

I think I might name my first born son Malcolm Huey Black Panther Cracker Killer Farrakhan. Level things out.

Bush stays ducking haters

So I'm chilling in my room, listening to Gnarles Barkley, when my aunt bursts in on her cell phone, laughing, and telling me to turn to CNN. "Good news...er...bad news," she said as I turned on the TV. That's when I see President Bush ducking shoes. SHOES! I don't think I've ever witnessed anything more bizarre happen to the president since he fell off his Segway. I'm more surprised it took about 8 years for somebody to actually throw anything at Bush, let alone a shoe.


"This is a farewell kiss, dog!"
Iraqis don't play that.


The funniest thing to me about the whole thing is Bush's face. No matter what, he always seems to have this look on his face that is part bewildered/part amused. I bet if someone threw shoes at Obama he'd be like, "Now-now-now hold on there, uhh, sir. Let's, uhhh, be cool here."

I'll Put A Spell On You

I have been a fan of Aqualung for a while and how could you not be a fan? His music is simply beautiful. Theres no hidden message, no bullshit, just beauty in it's rawest form. As much as I enjoy Nine Inch Nails for angry, choke me harder sex, Aqualung is true baby making music. Matt Hales is also easy on the eyes which is always a plus and looks a lot like my optometrist. I should double check to make sure Aqualung isn't my eye doctor because I don't think he's certified. I leave you with Strange and Beautiful. I love the use of lighting in this video.

A+B Conversation: Tragic Mulattos


Alex O. and Monica B. discuss Mariah Carey's role as the sad multiracial orphan girl trying to make it big in the Oscar-nominated feature, Glitter.

A: Why does Mariah love playing the tragic mulatto? She loves that shit.
B: So that other tragic mulattos know they're not alone.
A: Like Hilary Banks?
B: Especially her.
A: I should have gotten Glitter for you as a Christmas gift so we could have discussed the epic moments in that movie. It was gold.
B: Like Showgirls and Honey...but for tragic mulattos.
A: I'm sensing a new themed movie night.
B: "Girls who just wanna dance!"
A: I can't think of anymore.
B: "Girls who wanna make it big but just can't brush off those haters."

The Lonely Island



The comedy trio from Los Angeles who now works at SNL have made a new digital short for their song "Jizz in My Pants". The video is hilarious and I was afraid that they were never going to make anything close to their other hilarious skits such as Dear Sister, Lazy Sunday and Dick in a Box. They have also made awesome skits called The 'Bu and their very short lived show Awesometown which you can check out in our link area. Akiva also directs videos for We Are Scientists as well as Hot Rod so check out his sick skills. Jizz in My Pants is from their debut album Incredibad coming out Feburary 10. Monica and I have even given each other TLI shirts for special occasions. The gift that keeps on giving. I'm going to be wearing my Akiva shirt today while singing "Jizz in My Pants".

A few fun facts about this TLI/video:
- Akiva who directs all the digital shorts makes an appearance as the DJ. Hot arm warmers, Kiv.
- Jorma has made other appearances in Gnarls Barkley's "Who's Gonna Save My Soul", Hot Rod, and Role Models
- The cinema in the video is a few blocks away from my dorm. I saw Wristcutters there.
- Justin Timberlake, Molly Sims and Jamie Lynn Sigler are in the video as well.

Guys, step up your game.



I don't know whether I'm laughing because it's accurate or because it's so ridiculous. Personally, I'm a Smirnoff type of gal. This shit is straight out of The Boondocks. This guy is Riley on his game.

Are you dazzled?



As much as I hate to admit it, I am. I've been hearing about Twilight since Samantha was waiting in line to get Breaking Dawn. I bought the first book not expecting much and I was hooked. I watched the movie with no expectations and in fact laughed at the preteens and moms in their Twilight gear they bought from Hot Topic. If you go into the movie with an open mind, you'll love it. I saw it more as a comedy because you honestly can't take the movie seriously.



Robert Pattinson was the highlight of this movie. As embarrassing as this is I have fallen for RPatzz. He is a talented actor which isn't really displayed that well in Twilight. He's a decent musician: check out his song Let Me Sign off the Twilight album along with Paramore, Muse, and Radiohead so you know it's awesome. Based off his interviews, he doesn't seem to be taking any of this Twilight craze seriously and his laugh is infectious. He's my type of guy. Check out this interview from Access Hollywood where they talk about his numerous marriage proposals. I am completely dozzled.




That's the end of my shameless twilight plug.

Where in the world is Ann Coulter?


I must have been so overwhelmed by "hope" and "change" that I forgot all about everyone's favorite faaaaar right-winger, Ann Coulter. In such a long, dragged out, mudslinging election, you'd think Ms. Coulter would come out and play. Maybe call Obama a Muslim or McCain a secret liberal, throw out a few racial slurs, or at least come out and praise the new anti-gay props that passed in California and Florida. But no, nothing. She's completely M.I.A. She's done the one thing no one thought she could do: shut the fuck up. I mean sure, she's recently had her jaw broken and mouth wired shut according to Page Six(liberal back alley attack, perhaps?), but that was post-election. Where has she been throughout '08? Maybe a roving gang of socialists have her locked up in a basement somewhere, torturing her with clips from Barack Obama rallies and Will.I.Am videos.

Or maybe she's just building a momentum before she drops her new book, Guilty: Liberal Victims and Their Assault On America, Obama bashing included. There's the Ann we all know and love to hate.

Truth be told, I sorta miss her and her antics. She made politics fun in a sick kinda way. I guess until the book drops and she makes her PR rounds, we'll have to stick with good ole Palin for awhile.

Oh...Hey there, Vampire Weekend



Last night I gave up watching The Office (new episodes Thursdays at 9) to volunteer at Witness' 4th annual Focus for hange benefit. Before I talk about who I saw there I want to give some information about the organization. Witness is an organization which gives video cameras to people in 3rd world countries to document social injustices happening in their country so they can give it to people who can make a difference. It's amazing and I was happy to be a part of this event. I was working the registration desk and I glanced at the guest list and was amazed at the people that were going to be there and that I was also going to see Vampire Weekend for free.
I was munching on grapes when Maggie Gyllenhaal passed by me. She is tall, and gorgeous in person and was fashionably late but only stayed for about 15 minutes. Jill Hennessy from Crossing Jordan was there and so was Rob Thomas? Yeah, I know. I signed in Matt Pinfield, remember him? MTV VJ? Barely. Our scenario went like this.

Me: Hi, your name please?
Matt: Matt Pinfield.
Me: *shuffling through papers* Hmm... Pimfield?
Matt: No, Pinfield.
Me: *shuffling through papers* I don't see you, maybe you're under as guest?
Matt: *looking confused*
Me: Hmm... no, not under as a guest. Let me check again. Pinfield, right? Oh, here you are. You are table 24. Have a nice night.
Matt: Thank You
Erin: You know who that was right?
Me: Yeah.




PR Photos

I was chatting with an adorable gay guy there with his boyfriend. He complimented me on my septum piercing and told me about him getting to travel all over the world with his beau for free and coming to the event because he didn't feel like cooking dinner. Before Kathleen and I knew it, it was 10 and Vampire Weekend was performing. They were amazing, one of the best live bands I've ever heard. We danced our asses off before leaving in a rush so we wouldn't have to clean up. So what have we learned today kids? Don't pay 30 bucks to see a band when you can volunteer and see them for free.

Welcome!

I guess we can officially start this thing. We have been waiting to do this for a while and have just been too busy with school/work/ONTD. This blog is more for keeping up with each other and post funny, interesting, random things we see online and from Miami and New York, but it is open for the general public as well. I mean it's online so how could it not be shared with the whole world... I digress. If you were wondering our title is from Mean Girls (yes i know, Tina Fey is amazing) and to start things off I think I should share a little Kevin G and the Power of Three.
