Trace Atkins Does A Silver Spoon Jingo Jango
from the Keep Your Nationalism Under Your Big Ugly Hat dept.
Not content with just writing crappy songs and watering down the once-mighty country music genre, Trace Adkins shared his thoughts on the Fourth of July, "Always makes for a good 4th Of July comin' off of administering a fresh ass-whoopin' to somebody. You know, flex some muscle and slap some folks around and then set off some fireworks." Jesus, what a fucking moron.

Barry White Dead At Fifty-Eight
from the Sad Days Here To Stay dept.
Well this really sucks. Barry White, the over-sized soul singer whose seductive bass voice became synonymous with the language of love in the 1970s, died today of kidney failure at the age of 58, his manager said.

Ricky, Madonna, Sugar Ray, Staind - All Bomb!
from the There Is A God, He Loves Us All So Much dept.
Nurse! NURSE! Ink 19 Staff is dropping left and right, it looks like we have an epidemic of schadenfreude. We suspect this was triggered by the ridiculously low (but deservedly so) sales for new albums by Ricky Martin, Madonna, Staind and Sugar Ray.

Sideshow Bob In Boating Disaster!
from the American Idol Meltdown Watch dept.
"American Idol" superduperstars Justin Guarini and Kelly Clarkson, desperately trying to add that X-Factor to their limp onscreen romance by aping Bonnie and Clyde, almost ran over a young girl with a boat on Saturday. Guarini was ticketed by a lake patrol supervisor, according to the Associated Press. He then pulled a tommy gun out of his foliage-like hair and blew away the coppers with a James Cagneyesque laugh. Clarkson was draped uncomfortably over his arm. When will these sick pop stars learn?

Malicious Popcorn Vendor Tries To Maim J-Lo
from the Bring Me His Popper (And His Head) On A Platter! dept.
TV Station WENN reports that J-Lo left a Georgia movie theater midway through Matrix: Reloaded in tears, not because the movie sucked but because she cracked her tooth on a piece of unpopped popcorn. The hapless Ben Affleck tried to comfort her, but to no avail. J-Lo has confirmed that she will be soon be getting the most gaudy root canal ever. I'll see you in hell, snack bar staff!
