9 months ago
James Holmes made another appearance in court today, as a hearing was held to listen to arguments from media outlets who believe a judge should unseal various documents related to the July 20 movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado.

Stop us if you’ve heard this one.

Rihanna has become infamous for her Twitpics and Instagram uploads in recent months, but her latest set is strange even by her high standards.

Yup, her arm with an IV attached. No other comment or caption.
It’s definitely her arm, too, because the elaborate nail painting job that she got before attending the

A second masseur with allegations of sexual battery and harassment has come forward against John Travolta. But does either accuser have any merit?

Just when you thought the bar could never be lowered for idiocy, Patricia Krentcil allegedly went and put her 5-year-old daughter in a tanning booth.
The 44-year-old from New Jersey (there’s a shocker) told NBC’s local New York affiliate that she took her daughter with her to a local tanning salon.
Krentcil, who puts Snooki to shame with her “tan” complexion, maintains that her kid was actually not exposed to any of the booth’s synthetic UV rays.
