Yesterday, hip-hop artist Future took a break from being autotuned to within an inch of his life to release a video game designed to be played while listening to his latest single "I Won." The game involves two men in lounge chairs on a beach throwing gold necklaces at bikini-clad women passing by. Once the women are…
Future and Kanye have been collaborating on a new single, "I Won," and the pair just dropped the video. It's a combination of homage to their respective significant others and also long, lingering shots of sandy, bathing-suit-clad babes. It's weird.
Despite the rending of garments and wild howls of outrage from Twitter, the April issue of Vogue, starring Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, isn't merely doing OK. It's reportedly selling marvelously and will likely beat Michelle Obama's cover. Sorry, Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Oh dear. In an interview with Billboard last week, Shakira let on that her boyfriend, Spanish footballer Gerard Piqué, is pretty domineering. On top of simply not allowing her to film music videos with men (no more 'La Tortura?!'), she had to ask him permission to film the steamy faux-lesbian music video for "Can't…

Kanye West is profiled in the new issue of W, which spent a few days with the rapper in Paris while he was recording Yeezus. Kanye acts like a jerk to Kris Jenner, talks about Le Corbusier a lot, learns how to spell "Mies van der Rohe," and explains that his personal life goal is, "To make Kanye West as dope as…

Kanye West, America's tantrum-throwing beat-dropping id, gave an interview to the Times this week so overflowing with self-aggrandizing proclamations practically begging to be ironically cross stitched onto a $30 Etsy throw pillow that it made Muhammad Ali sound like Mahatma Gandhi. But when you strip away the…

A tipster who attends cosmetology school in Ames, Iowa sent us some photos from the school's recent "Inspiration Day." One woman was apparently so inspired by Kanye West that she felt blackface was the only appropriate way to express her admiration.

Temp Ryan Howard, played by B.J. Novak, will not be returning to the Dunder-Mifflin office on The Office. It's open to speculation whether he's leaving for a bigger role on Mindy Kaling's new Fox show The Mindy Project. Novak will continue to hang around as a guest-director and writer of future episodes. With Michael,…
