Randy Jackson does Pants on the Ground and talks Idol
To this very day I still get confused as to whether or not Jackson is related to the Jacksons. He’s not, but I recently watched all of the Jackson’s reality show on A & E. Anyway Randy being the shill he is did a cover of Pants on the Ground with the Roots on Late […]
Brett Favre Auditions for Idol and shows he’s more hip than Michelle
Ok, in one of the more surreal and funny NFL moments of the year, Brett Favre leads the Vikings in a rousing round of “Pants on the Ground.” Somehow this “Pants on the Ground” phenomena escaped me, probably because I bailed on the Idol auditions 20 minutes into last Wed’s installment. Original

TELEVISION NEWS: Fox Screws Paula Abdul, She’s Out of Idol!!
Noooooooo! Say it ain’t so! Paula Abdul is no more, she posted on her Twitter account last night that she’s through with the show. The producers of Idol treated her shabbily – first by bringing on Kara last year – who added nothing to the show and then giving Ryan Seacrest that big fat contract […]
