Kirsten Dunst takes money. Turns Japanese. Etc.

Articles | 23-02-2010

Whose idea was this? We know Kirsten doesn’t have much of a career these days but still… this is more desperate than that time we drove to the Gold Coast with a head full of cough syrup and a mobile number.

Oh, and if you care, the video was directed by McG, a man who managed to “kill the Terminator with only a film camera as a weapon.” (thank you UKR – again).

The Killer Whales will something, something.

*Where we attempt to write a funny thing about Killer Whales ‘going rogue’ and murdering us all. But it doesn’t really work because we’re too tired to structure sentences.*

Incidentally, the images are by Roland Tamayo and are currently on display at Gallery 1988.

Lazy YouTube update: KLF (Dr Who)

Articles | 20-02-2010

KLF taught us everything we know about everything… Also, Bill Drummond (one half of the due) once called the office in the middle of the night to explain that he couldn’t answer our interview questions because the KLF was a million years ago, and he had moved on, and he had some new art project or something…

This is a real game. It let’s you live the ‘journalism dream’. UK Resistance have already written up a bunch of ‘jokey’ features so we’ve straight plagiarised them – because that’s what real journalist do.

- Go “freelance” and enjoy the benefits of beard-growing and not having to ever see other people

- Be owed thousands of pounds you probably won’t ever see

- Drink so much free alcohol your insides still hurt even after three years of not touching a drop

- Get insulted every time someone gets sent something and you don’t

- Start as a columnist for a local newspaper and end up as a depressed blogger

- Watch your carefully-cultured internet persona disintegrate the first time you meet other industry employees

- Lie to yourself about products being better than they are on a daily basis

- Develop your plagiarism skills

- Meet people so horrible you fantasise about fighting them and actually killing them

Things we actually like: Ninca Leece

ninca

‘Franco-German electro-chanteuse’ Ninca Leece has just released her debut album. The title is really long. Far too long to re-type here. Or even copy/paste. Anyway, she’s sort of like Robyn/Annie/Miss Kitten, expect she actually produces her own stuff.

Beyonce shills for Nintendo DS

Nintendo have thrown some money at Beyonce to pretend she uses a DS. She looks very nice in the promotional photos. Not much like Beyonce (maybe it’s the new haircut), but we’re not complaining. Point is, if it’s good enough for Beyonce, it’s good enough for you…

team evil quasi

The time has come. We’re going to murk/dead/snuff out/wet up the old Team Evil Myspace. It’s like a spam filled shrine to 2007 over there. It’s also incredible ugly. So yeah, gonna kill it, but not before grabbing whatever we can recycle over here. As far as we can tell that’s four images (above and below) and this particulalry awesome sentence from a blogpost: “…and now I owe money to a raccoon.” Thanks for the memories News Corps. xo
