Well, she may not be dropping her drawaz anytime soon, but Jessica Simpson is looking to adopt some kiddies. Citing Angelina Jolie as an influence (“I think Angelina Jolie has done amazing, amazing things, and the international adoption rate just since her has skyrocketed”), Simpson says she wants to adopt kids before she has any the natural way. Right. That would totally put a crimp in her style. Let’s hope she gets knocked up by someone with at least an average IQ, lest those kids be doomed to stupidity. Hopefully she’ll adopt some baby geniuses who will tell her to just stop already.

Sponge was one of those bands that emerged post-grunge, attempting to take the mainstream version of that sound – as most popularly interpreted by the Stone Temple Pilots – to the top of the charts. They didn’t entirely succeed, but their 1995 debut album, Rotting Pinata, had a few choice moments, including the title track as well as the single, “Plowed.” By the time their second album, Wax Ecstatic, emerged the following year, however, it became evident that Sponge had already soaked up as much success as they were ever going to. Unfortunately, this meant that the alt-goth track, “I Am Anastasia,” wouldn’t get noticed…and that’s too damned bad, because it featured an absolutely perfect guest vocal by none other than Psychedelic Furs frontman Richard Butler.
When asked about his cameo in an interview with NineVolt Magazine a few years later, Butler spoke pleasantly of Sponge’s frontman, Vinnie Dombrowski. “Whenever we’d play Detroit, Vinnie would always come down and he’d say, ‘I love your voice! I’d love you do to the backing vocals on this song; would you do it?’ And I said, ‘Sure.’ So he sent me the DAT, and I recorded just the background track at home. It was just a favor, really; I never saw the guys while I was doing it!”
If you ever spot Wax Ecstatic in a bargain bin, pick it up. Trust me, it’s worth a few bucks just for that one song alone.
OK, what the hell? First I reported that the Gorillaz were going to have their own cartoon, but now we have news of a split? Come on guys, make up your minds. Either you’re really sick of each other, or you’re not. It’s nice to know that back in the good old days a band like The Monkees could get sick of each other, put out more than two albums, have a TV show that lasted a few seasons AND a feature length movie. But I suppose this is what happens when you’re a cartoon band. Still, even the cartoon Beatles and cartoon Jackson 5 seem to have more longevity than this bunch.
Britney Spears is the subject of a beautiful piece of art. Entitled The Birth of Sean Preston and created by portrait sculptor Daniel Edwards. All right, so it’s all a goof, but it is hilarious given that people are taking it seriously (see article). But the best thing of all is what Kapla Casting Fine Art’s gallery codirector said when asked if he hoped Mr. Federline would attend the show:
“Who is he?”
Rock on.
