If you love pop music, have almost a grand burning a hole in your pocket, and haven't yet developed a gaydar, do I ever have the summer fun outing planned for you! A One Direction concert!

Nigella Lawson's soon-to-be-ex husband Charles Saatchi announced this weekend that he's divorcing his wife because she didn't make a big fucking show of defending him after a series of horrifying photos of him publicly strangling her made the media rounds a month ago. In his self-pitying statement announcing he was…

And they say Sarah Palin isn't a relevant trendsetter. Governor and ex-hilarious Presidential candidate Rick Perry— arguably the nuttiest nut in the legislative clusterfuck that is Texas — announced just minutes ago that he won't be running for another term at the helm of the Lone Star State after serving as governor…

Stand by for an unbrolievable bronouncement, bros — using a top secret (but chill, always totally chill) metric, I have open on my browser (bro-wser) this very minute, a list of the top 18 broverwhelmingly bro-friendly cities in the US. Up top!

While you were at Pride this weekend covered in rainbow body glitter and making out with everyone, Paula Deen was busy figuring out how to harness the Supreme Court's pro-gay marriage ruling to her advantage. You read that right — because of last week's SCOTUS beatdown of Prop 8, the world's most delicious-smelling…

As Wendy Davismania spirals up, up, up, and into its second week, the anti-Davis backlash is in full swing. Her latest crime? Dyeing her hair at some point between age 27 and 50. In that spirit, here are some men currently serving in Congress who also may or may not have worn toupees or had hair plugs installed,…

Can blackouts help treat alcoholism? In a word: yes. Sort of like how spending a sunny Saturday hugging the toilet can treat wanting to drink rum ever again.

While attempting to fall asleep at 3 AM this morning, unable to relinquish my phone and stop refreshing Twitter even though I was in bed with my eyes half-closed, I tried to calm myself down by imagining how I would describe the political drama going down in Texas to a young person a decade or two from now, or maybe…

Cyndi Lauper, the woman your fourth grade teacher told you was a bad role model because girls want to do so much more than just have fun, is back at it. This time, she's writing songs for new Broadway musical Kinky Boots. Based on the 2005 British comedy, and written by Harvey Fierstein, it's the story of a man who's…

This sunny, almost-warm Sunday morning, CBS put together a cheerful little slideshow featuring the most eccentric and, dare we say, demented breakfast cereal mascots. The slideshow featured retro iterations of Tony the Tiger, the homoerotic trio of rice-puffing elves, Snap, Crackle and Pop, Franken Berry, the Quaker…

Have you heard about this show on AMC called Mad Men, about a reptilian account executive at an advertising agency whose life is complicated by his outsized professional ambition and awkward interpersonal skills? Most likely, you're much more familiar with the version of Mad Men that centers on a handsome philanderer,…

If the Catholic Church was your landlord, it almost definitely wouldn't let you masturbate in your apartment. You'd have to sneak away to a public park, like some sort of deviant. The Catholic Church, in other words, would make a pretty overbearing landlord, something that is being proved right now in New York, where…

The future female leadership in the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-day Saints looks a little brighter after Sister Jean A. Stevens took to the dais at the church's semiannual General Conference in Salt Lake City to offer a benediction. It marked the first time in the memory of the church's leaders that a woman…

Ireland is set to open an inquest into the horrifying (and probably unnecessary) death of Savita Halappanavar, the Indian dentist who died from suspected complications from septacaemia after the hospital that admitted her reportedly refused to terminate her pregnancy. Halappanavar was 17 weeks pregnant at the time.

Courtney Love addressed (started) a rumor that she'll be hosting one of the many talent shows currently choking the television airwaves like cheese cubes in the GI tract of a constipated Canadian goose:

Obama has apologized to California attorney general Kamala Harris for praising her looks along with the qualities that actually make her good at her job at a recent fundraiser.

Supporters of Michele Bachmann may have been a little startled this morning when they received an email from Lucas Bachmann, Michele's son and little Tea Party brat in the making, with the subject "Mom's birthday." It's mom's birthday? Wait, who's mom? My mom's? No, it's MOM'S birthday. Mommy Michele, of course! How…
