UPDATE: Family profile HERE. Currently, there is a 6 year old boy in this flying balloon contraption trapped high above the Denver skies (10,000 feet to be exact). What kind of family just has this “experimental balloon-powered aircraft” lying around the backyard is anyone’s guess…watch the live video coverage of this bizarre rescue effort HERE.
It has been a rough week for 24 year-old PR girl Mallory Montilla. After being arrested this past Friday, she became blogofodder today as the “budding socialite” who has been accused of coping 100k in jewelry. The NYPost ran the hack jobpiece today, and naturally it has begun to spread. But Jessica Pressler over at NYMag has called bullshit. And we’re tending to lean this way too, mainly because the date Whisper PR said they terminated Montilla on a Saturday.
“We felt that she wasn’t performing up to our standards around July 18,” Klein said. “After the termination, we noticed some inconsistencies in her reports, and we went straight to the police.”

It’s been awhile since we’ve heard from Justin Ross Lee the fameballer we discovered after seeing him pop up at every Hamptons party on our radar (this guy would go to the opening of an envelope). Lately he’s been too busy doing spoofs on Plum TV, conducting interviews with himself and responding to the hate mail that he received after Star Magazine published his adventures with Ashley Olsen (he sat next to her on a plane and took photos of her sleeping-so you know the type we are dealing with). Well today, Justin Ross Lee, or JRL as we like to call him has just unleashed another “Signature ‘Fuck You’ photo album” on facebook from his “Vicarious Vegas” trip. Enjoy…. More »
Donald Trump and the WWE DIVA girls attend a press conference about the WWE at the Austin Straubel International Airport on June 22, 2009 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. As you can see, Donald’s kindof a big deal.
…Or at least her facebook account. For a cool $1mil, you could be the proud owner of the domain: http://www.facebook.com/samantharonson; a url valued at approximately negative $150k (I came to this figure by figuring how much time of your life would be wasted as the owner of this account, using $100/hr as the valuation of your time). To be fair, the ad says “or best offer,” we are in a recession after all. A tip to the sellers: More »
Way back in 2004, Morgan Spurlock disgusted the world with the documentary Supersize Me in which he ate nothing but McDonald’s for one month. Five years later, Victoria’s Secret supermodel and mom-to-be Heidi Klum is bringing sexy back to the fast food restaurant — sort of. Klum, along with newly-crowned Germany’s Next Top Model, Sara Nuru had the extreme honor of presenting McDonald’s newest addition to its menu — the Snack Deluxe — in Munich, Germany. While we’d love to believe the pregnant Klum satisfies her midnight cravings with Big Macs and Quarter Pounders, we know better. More »
Thousands of people gather on Norlin Quad at the University of Colorado in Boulder, Colorado, where the April 20 date has been famously marked for years. This photo was taken at precisely 4:20 PM, when the entire crowd exhaled at once. We’re not sure what the best thing about this photo is, that it actually happened, or that it’s part of a special feature on Time.
highDEA (high?idea) Pronunciation [hi-dee-uh, hy-deeuh] –noun An idea or insight a person has when they are high. For the duration of being high, it is a truly profound, original, and useful idea, but turns out the next day to make no sense, or be of any whatsoever.
This site is a compilation of ideas stoners have had while high. You can add yours (if you remember). Like many of the ideas, the site itself is of no use whatsoever. My favorites are below. Happy Friday… More »

Never fear, The Cobrasnakeis here to capture all the most embarassing Aussie “hot mess” moments. Take this girl for example, short-shorts are always fun to wear in warm weather, but make sure your bum is covered! And if you can’t stand when the night is through, call a cab! I want to know who told this girl it would be a good idea to carry her friend home in the street.
I’ve heard of PMSbuddy.com before, but, not until it hit home today (a girlfriend of mine emailed me that her boyfriend signed up for it), did I realize the connection. This is the counter site for the guys that belong to the DABA girls (you know those “Banker Girlfriends” that have gotten way too much attention.) PMSBuddy is a free service “created with a single goal in mind: to keep you aware of when your wife, girlfriend, mother, sister, daughter, or any other women in your life are closing in on ‘that time of the month’-when things can get intense for what may seem to be no reason at all.”More »
