Lady Gaga and Beyonce in "Prison For Bitches" - [VIDEO]

Fresh off having the most popular music video in YouTube/Vevo’s history (“Bad Romance” with 140 million views and counting), Lady Gaga’s latest – “Telephone” – featuring Beyonce, has made its debut on the Web.The video is choc-full-o Lady Gaga shock value, and at more than nine minutes in length, could probably classify as a short film.

Early indications are that “Telephone” will be every bit as popular as recent Gaga hits, with the song, its participants, and even a string from its URL already dominating trending topics on Twitter  ahead of its official premiere on E! later this evening.

Lindsay Lohan Sues E-Trade Claiming Baby Ad Is a Parody of Her - VIDEO

The Super Bowl may be long over, but Brand Battle 2010 continues to rage on, as yet another commercial is bit by the controversy bug — this time one of those adorable spots from E-Trade featuring a talking baby named “Lindsay.”
 
According to the New York Post, actress Lindsay Lohan is suing the investment site on the grounds that the man-eating, substance-abusing baby in the commercial is based on her.

Lohan’s lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, is asking that the commercial be taken off the air and every copy of the offending spot be rounded up (which could now be more difficult given today’s coverage). The actress is also asking for $100 million.

According to Ovadia: “Many celebrities are known by one name only, and E-Trade is using that knowledge to profit… They used the name Lindsay…They’re using her name as a parody of her life. Why didn’t they use the name Susan? This is a subliminal message. Everybody’s talking about it and saying it’s Lindsay Lohan.”

Ovadia also says Lohan was mistreated because E-Trade didn’t get her approval nor offer her compensation for allegedly being referred to in the ad. Now, the lawyer says her client is owed $50 million in exemplary damages, as well as $50 million in compensatory damages.

Although Ovadia says that the spot — which debuted during the Super Bowl and aired during the Winter Olympics — helped garner E-Trade mucho money, it wasn’t one of the most popular ads to premiere. It didn’t rank tops with either online viewers or couch potatoes (although the talking baby series has racked up a lot of success in the past).

Still, today it joins a cadre of commercials that cleaned up on hits due to controversy — including the Tim Tebow spot, GoDaddy’s rejected “Lola” ad and men’s-only dating site ManCrunch’s similarly punted ad.

One could argue that by suing E-Trade, Lohan is calling even more attention to the ad in question. As of right now, the ad has nearly 2.5 million views on YouTube. It remains to be seen — most likely tomorrow — what effect this lawsuit has on further increasing visibility. But judging from the fact that it’s been cropping up all over the web since the litigious news hit, you can bet Lohan’s legal ire will ensure the vid’s virality for at least the remainder of this week.

Check out the vid below and let us know in the comments whether or not Lohan has a case.

Sidney Crosby shows greatness with gold-winning goal - VIDEO

CONGRATULATIONS CANADA

 

The greatest players in their sport do it when it matters most.

It doesn't matter if they played well, or poorly. They have the skill set to win a game at any time.

That's what Sidney Crosby did on Sunday afternoon to lead Canada to a 3-2 win over the USA and a gold medal.

Crosby had been a non-factor the entire game, failing to squeezing off two forgettble shots in regulation, including a flubbed breakaway. But in overtime, he made a play for the ages.

Crosby split a pair of defensemen as he sprinted into the USA's zone with the puck. He couldn't control the puck, and it went into the corner, but Jarome Iginla scooped it up, in part, because Crosby had occupied two defenders.

As he fell down, Iginla slid a pass to Crosby, who snapped a hard wrist shot between Ryan Miller's pads.

Suddenly, the man who had done nothing all game, created a moment that will last a lifetime for Canadians.

Heidi Northcott and Chuck Liddell Workout Video

 


Chuck Liddell Workout Video With Girlfriend Heidi Northcott

 

The video is shaky. The viewer can hear the cameraman breathing and fumbling with the camera. It looks like it was shot on a camcorder through a window. It's UFC champion Chuck Liddell and his bombshell girlfriend Heidi Northcott working out in what looks like the privacy of their home gym. And they're both naked. It ends after 42 seconds; the last shot is a leering tilt up and down Northcott's body.

Turns out the two are in on the gig. The workout video is part of a viral campaign from Reebok.

Down Drummer Boy

http://mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/jonah.jpgIt’s that time again, folks — time for another viral vid of a kid who is so incredibly gifted that you’ll a). Come to loathe your own child for his/her inadequate talent show skills, b). Fall into a deep sea of depression when faced with the listless path your life has taken. I give you: 5-year-old Jonah Rocks.

This little video hit YouTube  just a few days ago, and it’s already going viral, giving other pint-sized performers like Ukulele boy and Rush Girl a run for their proverbial money.

But this little dude is no flash-in-the-pan prodigy — he even has his own website (which — be warned — has autoplay music) replete with more videos and photos of Jonah and the band KISS His bio, from the “About Me Section”:

“Way back in 2008, at the age of 3, Jonah Rocks was lining up his Play-Doh cans to make a drum kit. He would sneak all the baby spoons from the cupboard, and use them as drumsticks. His daddy asked him if he wanted a real drum kit, and of course, Jonah said ‘YES!’ Once he sat down behind that kit, and held that first pair of 7A’s in his hands, he has never put them down, playing as much as he can, whenever he can. Jonah is completely self taught, never had a lesson, and if you’ve watched him play, you know he absolutely loves it.”

Check out his cover of System of a Down’s “Toxicity” below:


Talent Show


And, if you’re not completely demoralized by Jonah’s superior talent, here’s some more bite-sized band members for you.

Artists Who Should Go Away in 2010

Just as the American economy has destroyed the middle class family, the Big Music Machine has decimated the middle class musician. There are now only two choices for musical artists to survive: go big or go home. We all know what it means to go home. Endless nights in anonymous bars, playing for the same ten people on your mailing list. 

Going big means you need to control all forms of media for as long as possible. It means you're seen on the Target commercial, the World Series, the Grammys, the Nick Jr. show, the Amex magazine ad, the iPhone app, the Walmart end-cap, and the home page of Yahoo! It means you never go away, for fear you may never get to come back.

Going big means the same 20 bands follow us everywhere we go, while the other 20,000 wait for us to discover them in a "you might also like" widget at the bottom of our browser window. And therein lies the great irony of the Internet age: We have more choices than ever, but we still get force-fed only a few by Big Media.

Here are five artists who went big in 2009. I'd like them to go away in 2010 to make room for someone else. Just for a year. You can come back, I promise. Plus, you don't need me. You have the money to buy your way back in.

Kanye West
This one goes without saying. 2009 was the year that Kanye imploded. Between paparazzi punching, VMA acceptance speech crashing, and the crop circles 'do, we witnessed West going into full meltdown mode. The good news? His series of faux pas may have finally done the impossible: deflated his ego. The better news? There is so much hot air in his head, it will probably take most of the year for it to entirely empty. That means a Kayne-free 2010. Happy New Year!

 

The Jackson Family
Michael dying was the best thing that ever happened to the Jacksons' careers. Were any of you thinking about Tito before June 25? Are any of you thinking about Tito now? Thought so. Still, the long good-bye continues with an A&E series, authorized books, unauthorized books, talk of a tour, and God knows how many unreleased tracks being prepped for release. It took months for the Jacksons to bury Michael. How many months will it take them to let us rest in peace?

 

U2
U2 recently worried aloud to the Associated Press that their brand of larger-than-life rock may be over. They may be right. Their album "No Line on the Horizon" was met with a tepid audience and radio response. It wasn't for lack of trying: U2 did a five-day residency on Letterman, played for college kids on "Good Morning America," sat on a London rooftop, and broadcast their Rose Bowl concert on YouTube. Still, the Irish quartet's earnestness may never be a match for the latest "American Idol" or "X Factor" winner. U2 goes back on the road in 2010 to make us love them some more (plus, they have to pay off the mortgage on that crazy "claw" stage). But how can we love you if you won't go away?

 

Susan Boyle
I wrote about our fragile Scottish heroine in a post last week. Susan Boyle has set just about every 2009 sales record imaginable. Her debut album, "I Dreamed a Dream," has sold more than two million copies less than two weeks after its release, and it's #1 in seven countries. Boyle will certainly be pushed out onto every venue imaginable in 2010. Still, I wish she'd go away and return to her neighborhood Scottish church before this whole thing really starts getting strange for everyone — mainly her. I don't think anyone needs to know how far Boyle can be pushed into the limelight before it totally fries her.

 

Black Eyed Peas
I gotta feeling that 2010 is gonna be a long, long year. The Black Eyed Peas will never go away. Their hostile takeover is certain to continue well into the new decade. will.i.am and his faux-futuristic pranksters will win a bunch of Grammys before continuing on their world tour and sucking the life from every radio and TV on the planet. The Peas' energy never dies, but it might kill the rest of us.

 

Honorable Mentions:

Taylor Swift

Beyonce

miley cyrus

The Jonas Brothers

Lady GaGa

Adam Lambert

American Idols

Floyd Mayweather seeks strict drug testing for bout with Manny Pacquiao

Pacquiao, Mayweather

He wants a blood test within days of their tentatively scheduled March 13 fight, but Pacquiao's reluctance puts proposed world welterweight title bout in jeopardy.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. wants Manny Pacquiao to submit to Olympic-style drug tests, including a blood test within days of their tentatively scheduled March 13 bout, and failing to agree to these terms could threaten the fight, Mayweather's camp said Tuesday.

Pacquiao has expressed reluctance to submit to a blood test within 30 days of the proposed world welterweight title fight, which will be staged at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

"As management for Floyd, we're insisting this Olympic-style, random [blood] testing take place to assure it's a level field before the biggest fight in history," Mayweather's advisor Leonard Ellerbe said. "We're definitely at an impasse."

Mayweather's promoter Richard Schaefer said a Pacquiao promoter told him the Filipino superstar would not agree to a blood test within 30 days of the bout because of his superstition against testing.

Pacquiao and Mayweather have previously submitted, and passed, urine tests for performance-enhancing and illegal drugs supervised by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

Travis Tygart, chief executive of the United States Anti-Doping Agency, said a blood test can allow testers to detect use of energy-boosting synthetic EPO, human growth hormone and "a number of potent performance-enhancers not detectable in urine. . . . With a [30-day] window like that, you could dope to the gills and get away with it."

Pacquiao's trainer, Freddie Roach, said Mayweather's push for blood testing is a ploy to avoid fighting Pacquiao, who has won back-to-back fighter of the year awards and has battered world champions Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton and Miguel Cotto.

"I knew Floyd wanted a way out of the fight," Roach said.

Roach said his concern about the timing of a blood test has nothing to do with hiding anything. "It's 100% mental. If it's in your head that [a blood test] weakens you, then it will weaken you," he said.

Roach suggested a compromise, saying he would allow Pacquiao to give a blood sample one week before the fight, but no closer than three days before the bout.

"One would assume that he'd find it acceptable to be subject to the same testing that Lance Armstrong, Kobe Bryant and Floyd Mayweather agree to," Mayweather's promoter Schaefer said.

In another development, Keith Kizer, executive director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, said Schaefer's Golden Boy Promotions has applied for a permit to stage the fight at MGM Grand..

Several venues, including Staples Center and Dallas Cowboys Stadium, expressed interest in staging the Pacquiao-Mayweather bout with guarantees of $20 million and up. But MGM Grand, with tickets ranging from $500 to $2,500 and other related Las Vegas properties offering closed-circuit seats, can apparently offer more than $30 million.
