Justin Bieber puking on stage might be the coolest thing he’s ever done

I don’t even care about J Biebz and have only heard the “Baabay, Babayyy (n’ I was like baby, baby, baby)” song numerous times while out and about, nothing more. But this guy–J. Mothafuckin’ Biebz–is already considered a legend by some. No joke. The little

Apple to customers: “We know our version of maps sucks”

OK so they didn’t really say it like that, but the hype for the iPhone 5 over the past couple years was definitely triumphed by the iOS 6’s maps being all sorts of terrible. In spite of these, um, “issues” with Apple’s wannabe version of Google

The Bush household décor does not feature any pics of George during his time as Prez

Those framed Kodak moments capture our fondest memories: family trips to the beach, the first day of school, graduation day, the four years you were president—well, the last one maybe not so much, for the millions of us who have never actually been president. Or

Muse: The Second Law experiments and shreds with new electronic dance styles while holding onto musical roots

During this year’s Olympics you probably heard that theme song playing. A lot. That song was one done by Muse, called “Survival.” And since July I’ve been wondering just what the rest of their new album would sound like: will anything the band does ever

For sale: 125 meteorite and moon chunks, slightly used

Just how much are all of those rocks floating around, traveling at hundreds of thousands of miles per hour in space worth? Well, more than you might think. And at an auction in New York City funded on by Dallas-based organization Heritage Auctions, some of the

Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong’s meltdown was more than a little ill-timed

“Green Day sold out years ago!” “Why are you even bothering?” “Punk is dead!” “I can’t believe you’ll write about this trite garbage instead of the new xx album.”* *”xx” could be referring to the actual band The xx or “xx” could just be a

Lena Dunham ate cake whilst naked on a toilet…and the Emmys happened.

Lena Dunham ate cake whilst naked on a toilet…and the Emmys happened.

Full disclosure: I didn’t watch the Emmys. Well, that’s not entirely true. I watched the first third before I had to head into work. As a serious journalist, I feel compelled to share that. It’s ok though because the only thing more fruitless than analyzing 

Loop’s Last Minute Emmy Predictions

Loop’s Last Minute Emmy Predictions

Despite all my insistent, whiny and yes, accurate declarations that television consistently outshines movies, the Emmys are still somehow merely a shadow in the Oscar’s saturated hype machine. Giving more awards to “Flash Forward” than “The Wire” will do that. Still the nominees have been

Workin’ it with Mr. Louis CK: a surprise impromptu show exercising new material at The Comedy Store

When I happened to hear about Louis CK doing an unannounced double feature show at The Comedy Store in Hollywood, I made sure to get tickets as they went on sale Friday morning (there was no way I’d miss a chance for some live Louie!).
