11:30AM Jess McGuire | Avril Lavigne’s popped on the akubra and turn Molly Meldrum all of a sudden in her latest bulletin to MySpazz friends.

Avril Lavigne Wrote ‘Girlfriend’ When She Was Drunk

3:59PM Jess McGuire | Coincidentally, sometimes when we hear ‘Girlfriend’ on the radio, we wish we’d been quick enough to down bottles of cheap vodka in order to pass out and avoid hearing that fucking grating chorus. In other news, turns out she wasn’t nakie when posing for the infamous shots that now grace the cover of the latest issue of Blender magazine. “Actually, I’m not topless on the cover,” she said. “I was wearing a tube top, and they just kind of put a banner on top of it.” Even if she’s not topless, the 22-year-old is still flaunting her inner bad girl. “The Blender shoot was really fun because it was super rock and roll — we had a bottle of [whiskey] and ate cupcakes,” she said. Deryk Whibley will be relieved. Also – ROCK OUT WITH YER BAKED GOODS OUT, AVRIL! Way to keep it real! (makes sign of the devil with smoke stained fingers) More »

Defamer Australia’s Wrap Up Of The TV Week Logie Awards

11:19AM Jess McGuire | How on earth do we begin wrapping up an awards ceremony as ridiculously extravagant and gripping as The Logies? With great haste, little introduction, and by using an excessive amount of bold capitalised font to appropriately convey our over-excited perspective on the evening. Let’s roll. BIGGEST SHOCK OF THE EVENING! When the award for Most Outstanding Children’s TV Program went to the Umbilical Brothers, we were gutted to discover the two are not in fact brothers, and it’s not as if it’s a case that they both coincidentally share the same surname of Umbilical. They’re totally unrelated, and their names are Shane Dundas and David Collins. We feel like we’ve been lied to all our lives. On the upside, their onstage antics (peace signs behind the head of their producer, the odd popping sound) proved once and for all their special brand of comedy will never age, but rather stay as fresh and relevant as ever. Ahem. More after the jump… More »
