“MOVES LIKE JAGGER” VIDEO TO FEATURE JAGGER
According to Adam Levine, Mick Jagger himself will appear in the music video for “Moves Like Jagger.” We wrote a treatment, which the band can have free of charge: Jagger teaches the members of Maroon 5 (and Christina Aguilera, of course) the “moves” from his David Bowie duet video “Dancing in the Street.” [Rolling Stone]
NSFW OF THE DAY
Lloyd‘s new album King of Hearts dropped on Tuesday, and he’s already got a video for lead single “Cupid,” but today he premiered a new video for “Naked.” Don’t expect this one to play on television, though: it’s just Kamille Leai, aka Hot Wings from Real Chance of Love, being naked for over five minutes of the 5:22 running time. The camera angles keep the clip mostly PG-13-by-technicality, but we are talking about a video in which she takes a bath, and then takes a shower for good measure (before sexting with Lloyd, who doesn’t even appear in the video). If only this video had premiered a week ago! We could have made a good “teaser” pun. [Rap Radar]

The annual Gathering of the Juggalos is set to go down from August 11-14 in Cave-In-Rock, Illinois, as we learned earlier this month when a 27-minute long informercial (!!!) was posted to YouTube by the Insane Clown Posse. It stands in stark contrast to some of the more mainstream music festivals (like, say, Coachella or Bonnaroo) in both its refusal to embrace corporate advertising dollars and the way it caters almost exclusively to the fringe culture of Juggalos, a mini-society of cultural outliers who share a common love of horrorcore music, face paint, and recreational drugs.
The Juggalos are a tight-knit group who don’t always warm to people they view as inauthentic; at last year’s festival, both Tila Tequila and Method Man were attacked by Juggalos during their performances by inebriated fans. That’s not to say that everyone who performs at the Gathering of the Juggalos gets pelted with urine, though: For example, Tom Green and Gallagher were both treated like royalty!
All of which is a lengthy lead-up to the following news. Adam Graham of the Detroit News reports that Charlie Sheen has signed a contract to appear at this year’s Gathering of the Juggalos. That’s right, the #WINNING warlock (who hasn’t really been #WINNING too much of late) will be the “guest host” for one of the nights of the festival. When asked if Sheen would be embraced by the community of Juggalos, Violent J replied, “To the best of my knowledge, when somebody’s being picked on, when somebody’s being (messed) with, when somebody’s got mainstream America pointing their finger at them, that’s when they do best in the Juggalo world. When they’re an underdog, so to speak, that’s when they shine.”

You’re Cut Off!‘s Laura Baron reached out to us to ask if we’d syndicate her personal blog post on Charlie Sheen. We’re happy to oblige, particularly in light of the just announced VH1 News Presents: Charlie Sheen: Winning…or Losing It? special.
We're no better than Charlie Sheen. We watch him basking in his mega wealth with users publicly snacking on his goods and act like it's nothing we know, not true. Charlie's severe sense of entitlement is endemic of this society. Don't tell me you haven't seen extreme self-love and ignorance with the people around you. Just because he and his tightrope are higher off the ground, doesn't mean his trip isn't the same.
Charlie Sheen is a direct reflection to everyone in this society struggling with the addiction of grandeur, never owning up to responsibility. While his camp bails and he stands alone choosing only the company of people who've made careers screwing others on the public stage, we feel a sense of relief and distance from the disaster. Don't give yourself that out. Use this as a reminder, no one is free from consequence – “ nothing can buy away the truth. Not even Hollywood can Technicolor Charlie's fall.

In the past week or so, Charlie Sheen hasn’t shied away from saying whatever pops into his mind, including pointed words toward Dr. Drew. “That's ridiculous – ” to have a prognosis on someone you've never been in the same room with? Come on,” said Sheen on Piers Morgan Tonight regarding Drew’s recent comments regarding his behavior. Drew will have his say on a special airing Monday, March 7 at 8/7c. Full press release is below…

In case you’ve Rip Van Winkle’d your way through the last few days, you should know that Charlie Sheen is currently in the thick of an unprecedented media blitz. Since Sunday night, he has given barely coherent “exclusive” interviews to NBC, ABC, TMZ and, just last night, CNN’s Piers Morgan. During his (highly quotable!) one-hour chat with Piers, Sheen took some time to lambast our own Dr. Drew Pinsky, who had appeared on Morgan’s show a few days back and offered up some comments on Sheen’s seemingly manic behavior.
When Piers explained that he had recently spoken with Dr. Drew, Sheen quipped, “There’s no way to get that time back.” Then, Piers ran a clip of Dr. Drew assessing some of Sheen’s potential problems, during which time Sheen pretended to take notes on his hand in a manner intended to mock Dr. Drew’s credentials. When pressed further to comment on Drew’s take, Sheen defiantly proclaimed, “That’s ridiculous — to have a prognosis on someone you’ve never been in the same room with? Come on.”

As you may know, VH1 Divas Salute The Troops taped last night and airs Sunday, Dec. 5, at 9/8c. But the celebs host Kathy Griffin takes aim at in the show are probably hoping it never airs at all. Kathy, who fearlessly entertained the troops in a camouflage bikini, took jabs at Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson, Tony Parker, Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen and more.
But she saved the most brutal — and hilarious — comment of the night for Bristol Palin. Noting that Bristol was the only Dancing With the Star contestant in the history of the show to actually gain weight, she quipped: “She’s like the white Precious.” Judging by how many times this was retweeted on TheFABlife’s Twitter, we’re pretty sure people will be talking about White Precious long after VH1 Divas airs tomorrow night. Hey, anyone interested in getting a Twitter trend going with #WhitePrecious?
Also, get ready for the reaction from the marines when The Situation and Snooki take the stage. It’s out of control. The Sitch gave the troops some very excellent advice: “Stay grenade free.”
