Winners: Darjeeling DVD giveaway

Source: theblemish.com

Darjeeling

The winners for the contest are as follows. There were a lot of good ones this time, but I can only pick three. As always, you have 48 hours to respond. After that, you might as well kill yourself.

  1. Ben: “Well, we’ve got the supplies. Now where did those hookers go?”
  2. Cris: “Shit, this doesn’t look like Hawaii.”
  3. G: If you thought the first eleventeen seasons of the Amazing Race were rough, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Once again, I’ve been entrusted to do a giveaway. This time you can win a The Darjeeling Limited DVD. The Darjeeling Limited stars Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody and tells the tale of

Three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other — to become brothers again like they used to be. Their “spiritual quest”, however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins.

Better than what I got stranded in the desert with. A gunshot wound to the leg and a bad case of syphilis.

Contest rules:

  1. Think of your best caption for the picture above.
  2. Write it down in a comment or email it to “theblemish (at) gmail.com”.
  3. Double check you’re using a valid e-mail address you can be contacted at. E-mail address will only be used to contact winners.
  4. Cross your fingers.
  5. One entry per person.
  6. Three winners will be chosen.
  7. Contest ends Friday

Caption contest closed. Winners being chosen.

Friday contest: Blonde and Blonder DVD giveaway

Source: theblemish.com

Blonde and Blonder

Are your two favorite things in the world sports cars and tai chi? Then this will probably be of no interest to you. Pamela Anderson and Denise Richard’s movie, Blonde and Blonder — easily confused with Dumb and Dumber — is out on DVD and I’m giving away five copies of it.

Comic mayhem ensues when two lovely blondes, Dee and Dawn, are mistaken as international mob killers.

It’s sort of like when I was confused for an international playboy, but not really like that at all because I’m both a playboy and international. Umm, yea.

I have no idea why people trust me to give things away, but I’m not complaining. Read the contest rules are below. Contest ends next week.

Rules:

  1. Come up with the funniest blond joke you can think of. Be original or at least copy one I’ve never heard of before.
  2. Write it down in an email with the subject “Blonde and Blonder DVD giveaway” and send it to theblemish (at) gmail.com (or) write it down as a comment on this post.
  3. Sit back. Relax. Wait.

I will choose five winners. Best jokes win. Note that this may be offensive to blonds which makes it even funnier. Also note that blonds may have a slight advantage because they’ve heard them all before. Provided they have the brain power to remember any. Har har har.

The rules are simple. Leave a comment or use the contact form below making sure to use a valid email address to send in a caption for the picture above of Chris Martin attacking a photographer. Best caption wins. Contest ends Monday. Only one entry per person. Now go.

Big Brother contestant booted for using N word in conversation

Source: www.celebitchy.com

I usually don’t pay attention to the news about the “reality” shows, even if there’s a fake engagement and a bunch of infighting.

We did cover the racist scandal on Big Brother UK this January, when Jade Goody hurled ignorant racist remarks at Shilpa Shetty. Shetty ended up winning the contest and getting all sorts of career opportunities while Goody became a public pariah.

Now another racist scandal has rocked the Big Brother house - with a contestant using the “N” word. In the formerly all-girl house of twelve, which now has one male member, three girls were dancing when one referred to the other using the forbidden word. It wasn’t an insult though, and it seemed like she tried to do it in an oddly casual way.

The Big Brother people took her aside a few hours later and made her get out without saying goodbye to anyone.

emilydancing.jpg
Emily Parr was removed from the Big Brother house in the early hours of this morning after calling Charley a “n*****”.

The blonde 19-year-old was dancing with Charley and Nicky in the living room of the Big Brother house at approximately 8.30pm last night when she was heard to say “Are you pushing it out you n*****?” to Charley.

Emily immediately made clear that she had not intended to offend and that the comment had been meant as a joke. In discussing what she had said, Charley and Nicky agreed that they were not personally offended, although both did express shock at the language she had used.

Emily then admitted she should have been more careful with her words.

The comment was not screened as part of the ‘as live’ streaming on E4 and was immediately reported up to senior production staff at Endemol. The decision was taken to remove Emily from the house.

Emily was called to the Diary Room at approximately 3.30 am to be informed of the decision and was removed from the house immediately without further contact with other contestants. The remaining housemates were informed of Big Brother’s decision at approximately 9.30am today.

Emily was one of two housemates nominated for eviction this week and as a result the latest eviction vote has been suspended.

[From News of the World]

Big Brother officials say that it was a “careless” not a “malicious” remark, and it reminds me of Paris Hilton saying to some friends at a party in one of the Paris Exposed videos that “we’re like two n******” which certainly sounded derogatory to me.

Here’s a transcript of what happened:

Emily: (referring to Charley dancing/pushing her hips forward) You pushing it out you n*****.
Nicky: (shocked laughter) Em, I can’t believe you said that.
Charley: You are in trouble.
Emily: Don’t make a big thing out of it then. I was joking.
Charley: I know you were… but that’s some serious s**t, sorry.
Emily: Why?
Charley: Oh my god. I’m not even saying it.
Nicky: Just don’t talk about it anymore.
Emily: I was joking.
Charley: Do you know how many viewers would watch that?
Nicky: Okay, don’t make a big deal out of it.
Charley: Fancy you saying that. I can’t believe you said that.
Emily: Somebody has already used that word in this house.
Charley: No way. (Pause) Yeah, me. I’m a n*****.

Nicky laughs.

Charley: I am one. Fancy you saying it. I know maybe you see it in a rap song. Maybe you and your friends sit there saying it.
Emily: I’m friendly with plenty of black people.
Nicky: And you call them n******?
Emily: Yeah and they call me n******. They call me wiggers as well.
Nicky: I’m quite shocked.
Charley: I’m f***ing in shock.
Emily: It’s not a big deal though is it?
Charley: Not for us it ain’t. F*** me.

[From News of the World]

In the transcript above, Emily justifies her use of the word, saying it’s something she throws around with friends. People are going to say that it’s commonly used in conversation in the black community, but I don’t think it should be thrown around like that on television, even if it is a “reality” show.

You can watch Big Brother online on their website. The episode with the slur will air tonight, and ratings are sure to be up after this latest scandal.

A future So You Think You Can Dance contestant

That kid can break better than me and he is only 15 months old! Imagine how amazing he is going to be when he turns 2!

And the final two American Idol 6 contestants are…

I know a lot of people are shocked that Melinda Doolittle is gone, but a lot of people predicted that these two were going to be the final two for a while. In fact a lot of people were also predicting Blake Lewis as the winner of American Idol when the Top 12 was announced. There was all the emphasis on the girls at the beginning and people were saying that maybe the men would surprise us and they did. They went a lot further than any of us would have thought and now we have a boy/girl finale! And even better yet it is the first time someone from the South will not win American Idol. It is going to be someone from the West!!! Maybe next year there is hope we will get someone from the North East! ie NY!!!

Anyways best of luck to Jordin Sparks and Blake Lewis! (Can you guys keep a secret, I am actually looking forward to Blake’s CD! He is very new wave to me and kind of reminds me of Howard Jones!!!)

Inevitable sex tape by random Idol contestant

Source: www.celebitchy.com

olivia_mojica.jpg
The inevitable has happened and there’s now a sex tape by an American Idol contestant. It’s just a top 24 contestant from season two, and you’re not likely to remember her. Olivia Mojica made an “explicit” and “nasty” sex tape with an old boyfriend who must have gotten the idea from Ray J to sell it to adult video giant Vivid.

We’re told the tape is “very explicit” and features 40 minutes of “smoking hot sex.” One source who says he has seen the tape put it this way — “It’s the nastiest tape I’ve ever seen.”

We’re told the tape was shot with her boyfriend, but we don’t know when. A website featuring a preview of the tape will launch soon, similar to the site created specifically for Kim Kardashian’s sex tape.

We’re told Vivid Entertainment is the front-runner to distribute the tape. Steven Hirsch, co-chairman of the company, said he cannot comment at this time.

Mojica joined an Idols tour of Texas last Fall with season two Idol winner Ruben Studdard and season one runner-up, Justin Guarini. Other idol favorites in the “Superstar Idols Live!” tour were Anthony Federov and Lindsey Cardinale from season four.

While TMZ says that Olivia is in the band “The Watchdogs,” I can’t find any evidence of that on their website and I could find only one mention online of her involvement with the band. I did a google image search of her name, though, and it comes up with a picture of her from that band’s website with the caption: Olivia Mojica, Vocals. On the page of bandmember bios where it’s supposed to be, she’s been cut out and just the other band members are listed. The guys in the band must not want the publicity they’re getting since this news came out.

People were annoyed that so much hoopla was made over Kim Kardashian’s sex tape and she has much more starpower than this random Idol contestant who didn’t even make it to the top ten. It sounds like she sure could use the notoriety.

Was Mischa Barton in a wet T-Shirt contest?
