You Need To Watch This Immediately
2:56PM Jess McGuire | So apparently this video is the hot new shizz on the interwebs. I heard about it on Monday and forgot to watch it, which lead to me forgetting to tell you about it, which lead to over 2 million people watching this video and enjoying it before you – my most beloved reader – ever got a chance to see it.
I feel terrible! I have failed at my job of Pop Culture Guide. I felt so bad, in fact, that I couldn’t just wait and make this a YouTube Clip Of The Day tomorrow. You must watch it now, so you can tell your family and friends and co-workers that yeah, of course you’ve seen that amazing new video clip where the girl does all these cool things while lying in her bed. You saw it back when it was positively indie! Way before they ever played it on Nova and everyone else started liking it!
Enjoy. And forgive me.

12:43PM Jess McGuire | Oh god. Only a couple of weeks ago we learned that former pop superstar Robbie Williams made room in his diary for a spot of alien hunting with Peter Andre. Surreal and troubling, I’m sure you’d agree. Well, Robbie’s enthusiasm when it comes to flying saucers is a strong as ever, and it’s now influencing his real estate purchasing decisions.
Robbie Williams has moved to an area famed for alien sightings. The former Take That singer – who is reportedly obsessed with extra-terrestrials – has just bought a £7million English country estate that is crossed with ‘ley lines’ – invisible energy routes believed to attract aliens.
Didn’t they also have something to do with The Da Vinci Code?
Robbie’s obviously well aware he sounds more and more like a nutter these days, saying: More »

11:46AM Jess McGuire | Apparently Hillary Clinton is considering a trip Down Under… and not in the lesbian-college-attending, butch-haircut-rubbing, totally-lacking-in-maternal-instincts kind of way the haters kept banging on about a couple of years ago. It’s because she’s the Secretary Of State, y’all.
Hillary Clinton’s first trip as Secretary of State could include Australia under a plan being considered by the State Department.
While nothing has been decided, the State Department is considering adding Australia and Indonesia to a North Asian visit that could start as early as next week.
How tremendously exciting! Maybe this will help stop Kevin Rudd’s tears over having to wait so damn long before Barack Obama, undoubtedly feeling pressure from The Australian, bothered to call him? We can only hope.
