Last night Johnny Knoxville and Britney Spears were both guests on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where they aired a skit of Britney performing one of the stunts from Jackass 3D, "The Poo Cocktail Extreme."

• Posh adorns the January 2009 cover of Harper's Bazaar, and inside she talks about high heels, her trademark smirk/smile, wearing tracksuits around the house, and her relationship with the ever-present paparazzi. “I don’t complain about paparazzi because I’ve put myself in that position, and so has David. But I always say to the boys, someone is going to take your picture because you’re handsome or you’re smart or because you’re so good at soccer. But every now and again, Romeo might pick up one of David’s cameras and say, ‘Victoria, Victoria, over here!’ And his attitude is sort of angry… I tell you, the paparazzi would not be sitting outside if they realized I was the most boring person in Hollywood."

When I was thirteen, one of my best friends was a semi-professional rollerblader. I know, how swooningly mid-90s, but we were all impressed by his death-defying stunts. Well, some people were impressed. I was mostly terrified. I recall vividly the summer afternoon when he decided that he would launch himself out of his second story bedroom window, onto the trampoline below. There were maybe five of us present that day, and while the rest of my friends cheered him wholeheartedly, I sat in white-knuckled silence, convinced that he was going to maim himself. I also remember thinking: fucking boys. No girl would be stupid enough to jump out of her own window, even if there were a trampoline below. More »
