the crush of a terrorist

whitneyosama

here’s two people that you never thought you’d say in the same sentence! osama bin laden and whitney houston. what’s linking these two together? apparently bin laden is obsessed with whitney’s music! novelist kola boof documented her experience as a osama bin laden’s sex slave in her memoir diary of a lost girl. in the book, boof reveals some interesting details into the life of her captor.

she said of bin laden, “he told me whitney houston was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen… he said that he had a paramount desire for her, and although he claimed music was evil he spoke of someday spending vast amounts of money to go to America and try to arrange a meeting with the superstar.” perhaps he would take some time off from terrorizing people to spark up his love life?

bin laden also was said to have copies of tabloid & playboy magazines in his briefcase. another weird fact? the man loves his American tv! his fave shows were ‘the wonder years,’ ‘miami vice,’ & macgyver!’ so let me get this straight – he condemns western culture as being of the devil, yet he’s all about our music, tv & “reading materials.” you learn something new every day…

bothered

words cannot express the hilarity of this jimmy fallon bit. the late-night host premiered his latest brainchild last night, a series of parodies called ‘robert is bothered.’ fallon imitates ‘twilight’ superstar robert pattinson in the sketch, and talks about things that bother him. he even got a little website up and running. 

complete with shag-a-licious hair and a thick british accent, fallon succeeds in bringing robert to life. have you ever seen a robert pattinson interview? he is just as charming as ever, but you can’t deny he acts just a little bit kooky.

in the video above, ‘robert’ talks about how he is bothered by discovery channel’s shark week because sharks, in some ways, mimic vampires. “sharks bite people when they smell blood,” he says. “sound familiar? oh yeah, wait, they’re like vampires. copy-cat fishes. copy-fishes!”

all i can say is i hope jimmy plans on making this a weekly segment. pattinson has spent all of his fame thus far being utterly adored – let’s poke fun at him a bit!
