Vitamin Whaaa?!?!

Check this out:
"50 Cent is $400 million richer, no thanks to any album sales or music-related deals. The rapper owns 10% of Glaceau, which make Vitamin Water and the Fiddy's drink - the Formula 50. The company was just bought out by Coca Cola for $4.1 billion. "

Are you kidding me?! I mean, it's a great company and all, and I subsisted on Vitamin Waters alone in New York City, but come on -- who on earth has the balls to ask for 4 BILLION dollars during negotiations?! It's a good product, but now it's going to be everywhere. You know why this bothers me. I'm an elitist about things I know about. It's a sickness.

Klaxons

I'm not sure if I've posted on The Klaxons before -- you've probably heard of them, but most days I can't get this song out of my head:



However, it does seem to be the band jumping around dressed in ribbons. Hot.

Guys Don't Make Passes at Girls With Fat Asses

As I was perusing my usual celebrity blogs (celebriblogs?) I came across pictures of Jessica Simpson and John Mayer having a very public argument in Mexico. Remembering that I used to be a huge Mayer fan (I've seen him 3 or 4 times) I rolled on over to his website, and subsequently, his blog. The man is smart -- and not in a completely pretentious way (although some uppity-ness rings through... the man did win Grammys). His blog is pretty entertaining, especially the random thoughts.

This brings me to my point. Why do such intelligent men choose to be with such brainless women? Sure, they're hot, but what's hot got to do with it when you have nothing to talk about? Admittedly, the attraction has to be there, but I personally find things like personality, or sense of humor, or common interests to have equally high holdings in my mind when it comes to guys. I've found that with some guys, their personality reels me in, and the attraction seems to grow over time. The same can be said for girls -- I mean, I know tons of chicks whose attempts to gain a guy's attention are directly related to how hot he is (and that it's not just guys who do it). We've all had our moments, sure, but maybe it's time to put down the lipgloss and pick up a newspaper.

Hmm.

Here's John Mayer playing "Gravity"... such a good performer.





Oh, and if you haven't at least listened to that Tegan and Sara song I mentioned earlier, then Good Bloggie judges you.


...and there's this:



I know I'm a party animal, but thank god I'm not this stupid. Good Bloggie judges you too, Lindsay Lohan.

The Con

Tegan and Sara's new album leaked onto the internet this weekend, and the album's title track, "The Con" is available on a ton of sites. It's totally worth the hype machine search -- the song is good. Expect it to be everywhere in 3-5 months.
I found a leak of the entire album on YouTube, but posting the links to the entire album just seems... wrong. Is that hypocritical?
