Have you seen the Zach Galifianakis comedy series on Funny or Die called "Between Two Ferns"? It's basically Galifianakis conducting fake interviews with celebrities during which they both sit between two potted ferns and Galifianakis asks a bunch of strange and inappropriate questions. The resulting videos are always weird and awkward and deeply hilarious, and I've enjoyed every single one I've ever watched -- but none quite so much as his recent collaboration with Justin Bieber.

This particular "Between Two Ferns" episode is so great, in fact, I find myself reluctantly warming to Justin Bieber despite all his bratty behavior lately. I mean, any kid who's willing to let Zach Galifianakis badger him with the exact sort of insults disguised as questions we ALL want to ask -- not to mention the fantastic moment when Galifianakis angrily removed his belt and SPANKED him -- is okay in my book.

Galifianakis comes right out swinging by telling Bieber why he's thrilled to have him on the show:

It’s really exciting to talk to you, especially right in the middle of your public meltdown.

He goes on to say he's not sure how to talk to kids ("I've just never interviewed a 7-year-old before"), before asking him his first insightful question:

What was the last toy you got in a Happy Meal?

I have to say, Bieber does a great job of playing straight man. Check it out:

Haaaaaaaa. There are so many great lines from Galifianakis in this skit, I can't decide which is my favorite:

When you’re in the recording studio, do you ever think ‘Hey, what if I don’t make something shitty?'

You’ve had three hairstyles. What’s next for your career?

You said recently that Anne Frank could have been a Belieber ... Did you mean that if the Nazis had not taken her, and she lived to be in her 80s, she would have liked your music, presumably due to loss of hearing?

There hasn't been a time in the last six or seven years that I haven't urinated into a bucket. But I don't film it and put it on the Internet!

I don’t like your attitude, to be quite honest. Because you know what? YOU’RE TOO YOUNG TO BE SMOKING POT AND PEE PEEING IN BUCKETS AND DRIVING UP AND DOWN THE HIGHWAY FAST! I don’t think your mom would really mind if a stranger whipped her son.

Nothing dilutes public criticism like acknowledging it and making it funny as hell. Well played, Justin Bieber. Now pull up your damn pants.

What did you think of this video? Have you seen the "Between Two Ferns" series before?

Paula Patton's Half-Naked Red Carpet Look Is Actually Really Classy (PHOTO)

Uh ... damn. It might be totally inappropriate to show up on the red carpet in the buff, but Paula Patton's black, lacy dress really does make her look pretty darn close to naked.

She wore the frock for the premiere of her new movie, Baggage Claim. As much as I zoom in to try and get a closer look at this thing, I can't tell whether she's really showing that much skin or if the dress has some nude colored material going on.

Gah. She really gives new meaning to the concept of looking sexy and confident in a little black dress, doesn't she?

There aren't many women who can pull off a style like this without looking the least bit trashy or desperate, but somehow Paula makes this dress look like the classiest thing we've seen in a long time. Who cares if it really doesn't leave much to the imagination? This little number has "I'm a hot ticket and I know it" written all over it.

And she really nailed this stunning look even more by letting her hair fall loose around her shoulders, and by pairing the frock with simple black pumps instead of stripy sandals or embellished heels, which would've taken away some of the "wow" factor from the dress.

Oh -- and how cute is the red nail polish shade she's wearing? It gives her whole look a tiny pop of color that makes her look even sassier than she SO obviously is.

Huh. The only thing that could make Paula look any more gorgeous is if she lost the dude standing to the left of her. Isn't she just a little bit out of his league? (Kidding. Sort of.)

What do you think of Paula's sexy dress?

Tamra juez (mejor conocido para nosotros como Tamra Barney) es conocido por su forma de ajuste. La señora tiene 46 años y en mejor forma que nunca será. La mujer copropietarios de un gimnasio, así que no es de extrañar que ella está roto. Supongo que se supone que es una poca publicidad para su negocio. Todavía, algunos de sus modos de ajuste permanecer parecen un poco... trastornado.

¿Sus intentos más recientes para mantener su cuerpo demente hasta su sistema riguroso de las normas? Los entrenamientos de Bikini con nuevos centros de Eddie juez. En mis pesadillas que tengo de estar frente a este hombre en un bikini. Hay un montón de llorar involucrados, de los dos.

Mientras me preparo para una sesión de compartimiento, Tamra decidieron que sería una buena idea hacer una rápida serie de flexiones. Ser la esposa fiel, Eddie decidió "ayudarla". Si usted puede llamar en cuclillas encima de ella como trabajó "ayudar", y lo haré.

¿Supongo que tal vez eso cuenta como manchas le? Real aunque seamos. Yo soy apenas un bastión de la aptitud, y ni siquiera me siento inspirado a trabajar mi base si eso significaba que tenía Eddie parados sin camisa para inspirarme. ¿Qué es que dices, Eddie? ¿Si lo hago más estocadas, están bajando los pantalones? Estocadas aquí vamos! Siento que quema en efecto.

¿Con Eddie alrededor, aumentaría su recuento de push-up?

Robert Pattinson's Sexy Dior Ad Teased in New Trailer -- Yes, His Ad Actually Has a Trailer (VIDEO)

Remember that Dior ad Robert Pattinson appears in, the one that's been teased all summer long? The one that was supposed to come out last month or something, but all we got so far are a bunch of stills? WELL! That damn ad is still not out yet. But -- we are being treated to a trailer of Robert Pattinson's Dior Homme ad. You wanna see it, right? Sit. Down. Now. I am going to show it to you.

I don't think we're ready for the sexy sexiness of this sexy ad. I DON'T THINK WE ARE. That's why Dior still hasn't released it to the public -- because we are simply not ready for the heat and perversity they desperately want to unleash upon us. That is why we've been getting nothing but crumbs -- until now. Witness -- MOAR stills of the Robert Pattinson Dior ad, but this time in this old-timey Steampunk-style slideshow format. Did I mention edgy (well, kind of establishment at this point, really) photographer Nan Goldin took these shots? Those of you with delicate sensibilities may want to hide your eyes.

Yeah, I know. I was kind of hoping for more, too.

You guys. Who makes a trailer for a commercial? A COMMERCIAL. Christsake, this is what we're doing now? We're making trailers for ads? This is almost as disturbing as sea waters rising, melting polar ice caps, that big swirling pile of plastic bags in the middle of the ocean. Bring on the four horsemen of the apocalypse, we're done here. Unless Dior can promise me we'll see the final ad at last the week after Labor Day? Come on, guys, how much longer can you drag this thing out?

What do you think of the Dior ad trailer?

Amanda Bynes Is Crying -- But That’s Actually a Good Thing

dinsdag 13 augustus 2013

Amanda Bynes is still in a psychiatric facility following an incident where she was caught lighting a fire in a stranger's driveway. Since then we've heard varying accounts about how she's doing: Some reports say her medications are really helping; others say that is premature. Her mother was just granted temporary conservatorship and she is obviously not ready to leave the facility, so it's hard to tell exactly how she's doing. But one bit of information that just came out sounds like she's improving, even though it's not something that, on the surface, would sound like an improvement. Reportedly, Amanda has been crying.

While this might sound like one of those Duh moments, like of course she's crying, she's in a mental health facility -- apparently those suffering from schizophrenia are often cut off from their emotions to the point where they don't cry. So crying is actually good news!

TMZ reports that Amanda began crying because she was "scared" over an upcoming court hearing. And while it's heartbreaking to think that she is crying and scared -- this is actually good news and viewed as an improvement.

But TMZ also reports that Amanda still thinks there isn't anything wrong with her -- which strikes me as a bad sign. Doctors apparently say, however, that she is able to form "clear thoughts." An insider told Fox411's Pop Tarts:

There are no drug problems involved, it’s all mental. She has deep anger and PTSD, which tripped a psychotic episode ... She is very ill, but manageable. Amanda genuinely wants to get better and has wanted to get better for some time.

Apparently the PTSD, which we normally associate with the trauma of war, was partly triggered by the trauma of Hollywood life! She also is reportedly not close with her parents and has deep resentment toward them.

Whether Amanda has schizophrenia or PTSD, it's still good that she's been in the hospital long enough to be closely monitored. Too many people who are in dire mental condition are not. Whether or not Amanda has a close relationship with her parents, she still needs their help to a certain extent. Maybe all of this will bring them closer.

Do you think Amanda is getting better?

Lea Michele Accused of 'Controlling' Cory Monteith When She Was Actually a Godsend

donderdag 18 juli 2013

So much is coming out about Cory Monteith's life and death at such a rapid pace right now that it's hard to know what's true and what's being exaggerated, but one thing is clear: Now-grieving girlfriend Lea Michele was a hugely protective, positive force in his life ... Which makes it even more annoying that she's being painted as something of a control freak.

TMZ reports that sources close to the couple say Lea "swooped in when Cory died and immediately took over planning his memorial and other matters connected with his death." And before the tragic turn of events, she "fiercely protected him ... as much as she could, especially when it came to his substance abuse." For instance, she reportedly took the reins on his intervention, getting him into rehab, and giving him an ultimatum to clean up or she'd walk.

To some that may seem "controlling," but I'd describe it as being the best damn girlfriend Cory could've possibly had!

To me, what Lea did for Cory -- and what she's continuing to do -- is what you do when you care deeply for someone. You protect them and support them, but also sometimes push them to take better care of themselves.

More from The Stir: Cory Monteith & Lea Michele's Engagement Wasn't Far Off When Tragedy Struck

I've told my husband on multiple occasions -- whether it was when he was riding a motorcycle or acting resistant to addressing a health issue -- that he's gotta take care of himself. For both of our sakes. Because I love him, I want what's best and safest for him. I'm his biggest advocate. Of course, I can only say and do so much, even as his wife. Ultimately, it's up to him to make the right decisions and look out for himself. Still, I'm certain the influence of a protective partner, who always has your back, is overwhelmingly positive.

Hence why it's so wrong to use the words "controlling" and protective interchangeably -- especially in Lea's case. Sounds to me like she did everything she could to help Cory steer in the right direction. Now she's the one who needs all the support she can get and reassurance that she loved and cared for him as best she could, in the best possible way.

What do you think is the difference between being "controlling" and protective of your partner?
