Brittany Murphy’s Sudden Irish Accent: Drinking Or Nerves?

YouTube Clip Of The Day

8:29AM Jess McGuire | Today’s clip of choice features US talk show host Craig Ferguson delivering a heartfelt opening monologue where he explained why he wouldn’t be making fun of a then very troubled Britney Spears on his program.

Craig Ferguson’s Conversation With Christian Siriano: Needs More Fierceness

9:35AM Molly Friedman | Project Runway winner Christian Siriano made an appearance on down but not out Craig Ferguson’s show last night. As the awkwardness of the fierce tranny hot mess of a 21-year old fashion wunderkind attempting to make conversation with the pinstriped Scot gradually began to fade, conversation predictably shifted towards hair.

Apparently, you see, Craig had tried to get producers at hipper than hip CBS to allow him to bleach his salt-and-pepper ‘do.
