'Everything Is Awesome' Oscars Performance Is Amazing

'Everything Is Awesome' Oscars Performance Is Amazing
Comedy trio The Lonely Island joined Tegan and Sara at the Oscars on Sunday for a performance of their hit “Everything Is Awesome” from “The LEGO Movie.” But awesome doesn’t even begin to describe it.

The performance included dancing cowboys …

Andy Samberg previously told Billboard he was “disappointed” the Academy didn’t recognize The Lonely Island as nominees for the song, but that clearly didn’t stop him from performing “like a boss.”

Joining “Everything Is Awesome” in the best original song category are fellow nominees “Glory” from “Selma,” “Grateful” from “Beyond the Lights,” “I’m Not Gonna Miss You” from “Glen Campbell…I’ll Be Me” and “Lost Stars” from “Begin Again.”

Cher Throws Shade at Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson for Allowing Anti-LGBT Bill to Become Law

Cher Throws Shade at Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson for Allowing Anti-LGBT Bill to Become Law

Cher

Earlier today we reported that a bill seeking to prohibit cities in Arkansas from enacting LGBT non-discrimination ordinances is expected to go into effect tomorrow after Governor Asa Hutchinson said Friday he plans on letting the bill become law without his signature.

…But not before Cher speaks her mind on the matter:

Why am I not surprised That Asa Hutchinson, Gov of Arkansas,is hanging LBGT community out to dry⁉️

— Cher (@cher) February 22, 2015

The bill passed the Arkansas Legislature February 13, but LGBT organizations and leaders were slow to react. Other last minute efforts to pressure former Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton (and Hillary) and Bentonville-based Wal-Mart to speak out against the measure appear to have been unsuccessful.

LGBT leaders may now be wishing they could turn back time and start sounding the alarm earlier…

Hipster Group Drives Around Cape Town Assaulting Men With Top-Knot Hairstyles: VIDEO

Hipster Group Drives Around Cape Town Assaulting Men With Top-Knot Hairstyles: VIDEO

Screen Shot 2015-02-22 at 3.17.56 PM

Nicholas Smal and Gareth Allison of the South African comedy group Derick Watts & The Sunday Blue took everyones’ hatred of top-knot hairstyles too far when they posted an unfunny video to YouTube, called Stop The Knot, of the two driving around Cape Town and snipping off unsuspecting mens’ top knots. The two collect the severed top knots in a jar labeled #stoptheknot as a ploy to spread the message on social media to stop the annoying hair trend. According to info they posted on their Facebook page, the group is known for viral video hits The Car Guard Song and The Movember Song.

Despite how some may feel about the annoying hair trend, the two undeniably violate the personal boundaries of their victims. You can watch the neckbearded, tacky handlebar mustache duo’s video, moreso to help the victims identify the buffoons who did this to them, AFTER THE JUMP
