During a segment on London's Capital Radio, Jackson was asked to recite Swift's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," and the result was a tour de force of Jackson gruffness.

6. Those Wacky Brits
First of all.. how the hell do they even still have Blockbusters.. 2nd.. why are they so surprised they're shutting down? Guess they really like to stick to their old-fashioned ways. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm a huge blockbuster fan.. in fact, that's how I organize my DVD collection. Each of my favorite stars has their own section/rack... The Arnold Movies.. The Stallone movies... The Dangerfield section.. and of course, the Aidan Quinn section...

Fatty foods: Xtreme Eating Awards 2013
#1 ) Uno Chicago Grill's Deep Dish Macaroni & 3-Cheese
The
Center for Science in the Public Interest named the winners of its
"Xtreme Eating Awards," which are restaurants that the consumer advocacy
group believes are creating menu items with the "purpose of promoting
obesity, diabetes, and heart disease."
Uno's Deep Dish Macaroni is made up of four cups of pasta, cheddar, Parmesan and Romano cheeses along with Alfredo sauce and a Ritz Cracker topping. The meal contains 1,980 calories, which equals the amount a person should consume in a day. It also contains 71 grams of saturated fat and 3,110 mg of sodium.

8. Remember When She Was the Hottest Actress On The Planet?
I dont just mean looks wise.. I mean career wise.. And Ok, maybe she's still attractive, though being married to this guy took her down a few pegs.. But any sort of attraction is now lost thanks to this..
Megan Fox Speaks In Tongues and Is Symmetrical: an Analysis of Esquire’s Terrible Profile
Megan Fox is a cuckoo clock rooster crowing "Wack-a-doodle-doo" at the midnight moon, and still the primary focus of her new Esquire profile is that Megan Fox is pretty.
The following is just a brief sampling of the dozens (hundreds? thousands?) of insane things Megan Fox says to the magazine this month:
"I've read the Book of Revelation a million times. It does not make sense, obviously. It needs to be decoded."
"When war breaks out in the Holy Land, like it is right now, if that is a sign of the immediate end times, then where are the other signs?"
"[Speaking in tongues] feels like a lot of energy coming through the top of your head. I'm going to sound like such a lunatic - and then your whole body is filled with this electric current."
Not sure this is what you want to be hearing in the bedroom..

Poor Roker... though, he'll be crying himself to sleep tonight on his bed made of hundreds.. I just hope he doesn't get any on Lauer when he lets loose in the middle of the night..
WATCH: Al Roker talks White House 'accident'

“It wasn’t until it was picked up by a Web site,” Roker told a TVNewser reporter about the frenzy over the incident. “The story had been on the air for three days, no big deal. But when you put it on a Web site, and then all the sudden ‘Ooh!’”
He added, “At the end of the day, I have a best-seller with “Never Goin’ Back Winning the Weight-Loss Battle For Good.’ Hey, you know what, I’m laughing all the way to the bank.”
The “Today” weatherman confessed to "Dateline" that he “pooped” his pants while walking through the White House many years ago following his gastric-bypass surgery.
In short.. there's trouble, Mr. President.
10. What Choo Talkin Bout Mr. Drummond?
If you had Todd Bridges as the last man standing in the Diffrent Strokes death pool.. you are now a millionaire..
Conrad Bain, who served for years as the eternally understanding adopting father to the American melting pot on Diff’rent Strokes, has died. Reports say that Bain died of natural causes at the age of 89.
Bain was an actor who spent time doing Shakespeare and classic dramas on Broadway like The Iceman Cometh, Candide, and Uncle Vanya before breaking into film and TV in the late ’50s and early ’60s. Among his most notable early roles was on Dark Shadows as the town innkeeper—a two-season run that ignobly ended with his being killed by a werewolf. From there Bain graduated to film work in movies such as Coogan’s Bluff, I Never Sang For My Father, and Woody Allen’s Bananas, before producer Norman Lear, having turned him down for a film, gave him the consolation prize of bringing him to national prominence on Maude.
Still probably the best theme song of all time... may be time to add it to the Dog & Saw rotation...
