Apparently I am a little slow on the uptake, but I just heard Lana Del Rey's hit single Video Games and instantly was a fan. I don't know if it was the tubular bells at the beginning, the cinematic orchestration and the snare drum that starts at 2:32, or the video that won me over, but I am a fan of it all.san francisco, counter culture, books, music, space, street art, documentary, current events, crime, social media, technology, green and urban living

Ok, I apparently was the last one to get the memo, but Ryan Gosling has a band called Dead Man's Bones. And they made a creepy music video with a choir of zombie children.

Obsessed Paula Abdul Fan Commits Suicide Near Her LA Home [celebrities]

I'm not quite sure how this one got past me, but Paula Abdul-crazed American Idol hopeful Paula Goodspeed committed suicide outside of Abdul's Los Angeles home in November of 2008.
Celebrity stalking is nothing new, sadly neither is death of a celebrity as a result of said stalking, though this is one of the first times I can recall a stalker/fan committing suicide near the home of their "beloved."
Here is Goodspeed's 2006 American Idol audition (her singing is not to be missed!):

Lady GaGa and Anderson Cooper got drunk together during a recent interview in London.
Also, if you're wondering what the GaGa did for Thanksgiving, look no further. She baked a little monster casserole, natch.

What is Wrong with John Stamos? [cocaine & underage women, that's what!]

John Stamos allegedly had oral sex with a 17-year-old girl while she was on spring break in Florida back in 2004.
This same woman is now being charged with trying to extort Good Ole' Uncle Jesse to the tune of $860,000 because she claims she has pictures of him with strippers and cocaine.
The FBI found no such photographs after searching the defendant's residence. Stamos declined to comment to the AP but attended the trial's opening day and is expected to testify.

Oprah is Like Jesus, but with Cupcakes Instead. [oprah mag anniversary]

Oprah feeds the masses cupcakes at the 10th Anniversary of O Magazine at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. I think my favorite part of this photo is Gayle stuffing her face with a cupcake. So classy.

Countess LuAnna Has "Class," but Can't Sing.
So, in the spirit of Atlanta Housewife Kim Zolciak, New York Housewife Countess LuAnn has recorded her own single, "Money Can't Buy You Class," and it is as awful as you imagined.
Here's Kim's single, "Tardy for the Party," which is wildly popular with the gays (no one said gays had good taste in everything!).
Speaking of gays and Kim Zolciak, it's been confirmed she's been bitten by the ghey bug herself- she's now dating ATL DJ Tracy Young.

Kirsten Dunst is Made of Awesome.
I've had a life-long crush on Kirsten Dunst that started at 12; in essence it is she who can be credited with awakening my young sexuality. Anyways, a decade after the release of Jumanji, and she is still quite busy.
She is set to star in Lars von Triers' latest sci-fi thriller "Melancholia", which is set to film in southern Sweden July through September.
She also co-wrote and directed a short film, Bastard, which will premier at the Tribeca Film Fest and was just accepted into the prestigious Cannes film festival in France.
Go, Kirsten!

celebrities and self injury
i recently read an article about celebrities cutting themselves. while self injury is a social problem that definitely needs to be addressed, i do not like the way megan fox so lightly described all teenage girls as "dabbling" in cutting, as if this was a healthy, normal thing that all teen girls go through. i wish she didn't have such a casual attitude about it.
