The best part of American idol, besides anytime that Paula speaks because you know you’re gonna get something drugged up and incoherent, the audition process has lost one of it’s greats. Alexis Cohen, 25-year-old former two-time “American Idol” contestant has been struck and killed by a car in a New Jersey shore town.

Deputy Chief Michael Mohel of the Ocean County Prosecutors Office says an autopsy indicated she suffered chest, head and abdominal injuries, which led them to believe that she was struck by a vehicle. Mohel says investigators are seeking more information about the collision. Cohen auditioned in Philadelphia for the popular Fox singing competition in August 2007, and the episode was aired in January 2008. She tried out again during the show’s eighth season.

This is pretty sad. My favorite part of American Idol is when you get the crazies in the beginning that know they’re stars. Alexis was a bit different though, yes she knew she was very talented, but she was an old cat lady in the making and it’s sad to see her go. I’ve included one of her audition segments from Idol, and yes during the video Simon Cowell says she looks like William Defoe , yes it was funny and slightly true,so enjoy because she would’ve wanted us to laugh…..tokes go out to her family and her pets…

Its about time we got a show dedicated to the amazing substance we know as cannabis. Cannabis Planet is a weekly, 30 minute television program that will explore the merits of Cannabis as a Medicine, Industrial Resource, Agricultural Crop and more. Collective Profiles, Grow Tips with Ed Rosenthal, Cannabis Cooking, news and information.

The show premieres Saturday, August 1st at Midnight on KDOC TV, Los Angeles and will air every Saturday at Midnight. and Wednesdays at 12:30 am. Unfortunately I believe that it will only be broadcast in the Los Angeles area, but we have this fuckin sweet alien technology called the internet where mostly everything is available and i’m sure this will be too. I’m pretty excited for this new show. Check out the trailer up top for a feel of what the show will be like.

It seems as though another casualty of an evil and unjust drug war has been taken. Joseph “Jojo” Simmons Jr., 19, plead guilty to a single charge of disorderly conduct stemming from a marijuana related arrest in May. According to police, Simmons was caught being stupid by officers rolling a marijuana joint on May 8 while sitting inside his BMW on New York’s Upper West Side. Police said he attempted to flee in the car, nearly backing into an NYPD cruiser in the process, which led to charges of resisting arrest as well as drug possession, reckless endangerment and criminal use of drug paraphernalia, which were all subsequently dropped. Jojo has been sentenced to one day of community service through is plea deal with prosecutors.

This is pretty shitty news because I am fully against the current marijuana laws that our country has, not only because they are based on racism, but because they are nearly useless. The fact that Jojo could have found a better spot to roll a joint than the always busy upper west side is a given and he should have known that. I’m all for responsible consumption by adults but his actions weren’t too responsible, so if you really must break the law, which i don’t advocate, do it in the least risky way possible and Jojo, get a darker tint on your beemer please because if I have to see your skeleton like uncle Russell lecturing you frequently, I might become ill.

Apparently her prescription salary demands were too crazy for FOX to handle because it doesn’t look like the straight-up singer will be sharing her medicated joy with America next season. Paula “I like pills” Abdul’s manager, David Sonenberg released a brief statement yesterday saying that, “it does not appear that Paula’s going to be back on Idol” next season because the singer and walking zombie judge hadn’t yet received a new contract from FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment, the production companies behind the show. Sonenberg who has only been representing Abdul since June expressed his frustration adding

“I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful. I find it kind of unconscionable and certainly rude and disrespectful that they haven’t stepped up and said what they want to do.”

This is pretty sad because although I dont watch AI religiously anymore I still take comfort in knowing that I can turn on my tv and see Paula’s special way of getting her points across which i’ve aptly named her “crazy jumbled pill speak gibberish.” If this was the show’s plan all along to just ditch Paula as the price of prescriptions rise thats awful dirty. 19 Entertainment has something else coming to them though if they think that Paula’s “prescription pals”  are gonna take this one lying down with a sliced straw and some hard sniffing as usual. I can almost see it now, the “re-hire Paula campaign” to be sponsored by Abbott Pharm, the makers of Vicodin. OK, we dont really think that they are gonna let thier best trainwreck ratings draw leave the show. I kind of have the feeling that this will all be settled before filming for what seems like the 100th season of American Idol begins on August 6th. Don’t pop pills for fun, they can kill you people…embrace the burning trees and breathe in please… aka smoke some weed

Watch CBS Videos Online

Here’s a quick video from the home of cougar sexpot Katie Couric, whom we’d do CBS news where they speak to a doctor who clearly states that in the motherland Amsterdam where the sale and use of cannabis in coffeeshops and private residences is tolerated the mere fact that it is available has not increased the use among teens and the like….just a quick FU to the naysayers in video form,check it out and toke up

We’re not gonna make definite decisions on what we think the figure that passes through the doorway is, but something is definitely there and we know that had Larry King seen it he would’ve died! Just kidding…everyone knows that vampires Larry King can’t die.

Since im a huge Michael Jackson fan, I’ve seen the video maybe 60 times…yes fuckers, I’m  a paranormal specialist very busy doing things, but Michael is important, and if he’s really trying to reach us already then I’m gonna be on this shit before Nancy Grace’s fat cheeks inquisitive face makes a comment on the video. At around the 0:20 mark of the video you can clearly notice a shadowy figure walk east to west across a hallway. At first I thought well maybe its someone in another part of the house or a shadow from outside, but after about replay number 15 I noticed that the shadow is also on the floor on the home and moves perfectly with the possible apparition.

FYI- If you watch the video after enjoying some “herbal refreshment,” be prepared for an influx of conspiracy theories about the video to rapidly enter your brain….jam on!

What do you guys think the figure in the video is???

Attention Leighton Meester’s feet you have a new costar on the set of Gossip Girl. Yes, the CW confirmed yesterday that Hilary Duff will be joining the cast of the already garbage popular Gossip Girl. She’s set to play a movie star named Olivia Burke who enrolls in NYU for that “traditional” college experience. She’ll be room mates with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) and a love interest for Dan (Penn Badgley). While we know she’s signed to do multiple episodes there’s still no word on how many she will appear in. Hilary will make her first appearance on the show during the 4th episode scheduled to air on October 5th.

While Hilary has been quiet lately (and by lately I mean since Lizzie McGuire got cancelled) I’m sure she’ll do whatever she has to do to be able to stay in front of the camera. All I know is Hilary must be pissed when she looks back at things. She’s forced to do guest spots on cable shows since Lizzie McGuire’s 65th and final episode while Shia LaBeouf has become Michael Bay’s ass puppet a box office garuntee after Even Stevens’ 66th and final episode aired (both aired on Disney). Hilary this blunt’s for you…..and your career (what’s left of it)

Unfortunately this is true, Anna Faris and fiance b-list actor Chris Pratt (Parks & Recreation) were in Maui this weekend where they reportedly eloped. As you know Anna was married to tv producer Ben Indra for nearly 3 years when she filed for divorce on April 5th 2007 but the divorce wasn’t finalized until February 19th 2008. Chris Pratt whose never been married has to be thanking the lord that he caught Anna Faris. If you can’t comprehend how Pratt pulled this off you’re not alone but like a true magician he will never reveal his trick.

Pratt who until 08 where he landed a small roll in “Wanted” was bouncing from c-list to b-list roles, including a 9 episode role in the cancelled “O.C.”, has been picking it up as of late starring in “Bride Wars” and the fast growing hit show “Parks & Recreation” while Anna has been red hot in all sorts of comedies (House Bunny, Observe & Report) but both will be appearing in “Young Americans”. Anna also has 4 more projects in the works including the sequel to “Alvin & the Chipmunks” along side Christina Applegate & Amy Poehler (who stares with Pratt in “Parks & Recreation”) while Pratt only has 1 other movie project with “Jennifer’s Body” along side sexy herself Megan Fox & Adam Brody.

I don’t know how long this marriage will last with Anna bringing home the bacon but for the time being congrats Chris this blunt’s for you…….and Anna….. and “Parks & Recreation”

FX shit show Nip/Tuck has not surprisingly been cancelled. The show which was set in a plastic surgery practice followed the lives of the practices’ owners.

The show was one episode away from their 100th episode when the bad news was given, but they will still get their milestone episode. The only odd thing is that fans of the show will have to wait until 2011 to catch it’s final episode. As great sad as the news of the series end is, actor John Henley who plays “Matt” on the show is very optimistic about the networks decision, adding that he feels like the show has reached a creative impasse with regards to the story line.

Well i’ve never seen more than one episode and I was ready for the show to end, so it’s probably about time….thanks FX

Will you miss the show????

The new season of Scrubs will be taking a different path then the other seasons did. The upcoming season will take Dr. Cox & Dr. Turk from the hospital to the classroom and become med school professors. The hospital isn’t going anywhere though it’s just not the main setting anymore. “Scrubs” veterans including Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, & Ken Jenkins have all agreed to make guest appearances but will not be show regulars anymore. Also the nameless janitor played by Neil Flynn will not be returning to the show. While I’m happy that botox lipped Zach Braff isn’t going to be a regular on the show,  I don’t believe the new season will last very long due to the premise. According to “Scrubs” creator Bill Lawrence they will be adding a “fairly famous” person to the show but no word on who it will be. Lawrence explained the change by saying,”If the show is just Scrubs again in the hospital with a different persons voice over it would be a disaster and people would be mad.”

While the premise and evolution of the show may be corny we support Donald Faison and wish the best for the series. There may be hope for the show if they can bring in a big name but if not Donald this blunt’s for you and your soon to be unemployed self.
