Donald Trump, the man who once said that Kevin Federline was "fantastic" and "doesn't get enough credit" is back in the news for sharing his thoughts on current events and pop culture icons. In an interview with NY1 that began airing last night and will continue tonight, he called President Bush "so bad, so evil that I don't think any Republican could have won." To explain his political insight, he added, "He'd go into a......

Have you seen the copper-toned glow emanating from Rockefeller Center? It's not The Tree...it's a penny harvest field! The installation is the first phase of Penny Harvest, and the copious coins came from students in NYC who have collected $1 million in change. The pennies will later go to different charities and towards improving the students communities.New York first lady Silda Wall Spitzer joined hundreds of public school children on Monday to unveil a mass......

You would have thought Delilah shaved Samson's head again after the breathless reports of Britney Spears shaved her head Friday night. Apparently the pop singer-mother-train wreck did the deed before going to a Sherman Oaks tattoo parlor and giving the tabloids something to pun about. A witness told reporters Britney "said she was tired of people touching her head." That makes total sense. Plus, her hair was getting really gross after all the dye......

The divorce proceedings of a bubblegum-snapping Britney Spears were spoofed on Saturday Night Live (video - click the one of Amy Poehler in a blunt cut wig) last night. While we can only wish that Kevin Federline had opened up a club just for pit bulls - which failed because, you know, pit bulls don't have money - it turns out that Britney might not be that dumb given her pre-nup. The NY Post, by......

The -ists this week had politics on the brain. And what goes better with politics? Partying-- that's two great tastes in one. Oh, and Kevin Federline...can't forget about Kevin Federline. That's three great tastes in one. -Chicagoist celebrated the election news but cried in their Beer of the Week as Da Bears lost for the very first time. And in continuing with our theme, previewed an actual K-Fed show! -DCist caught the President stumped......

- Walter Pertyk, the teen who dressed as Hitler (for Halloween) at his Brooklyn public high school, walked in the march that protested his actions. He tells the Post, "They called it a walk of tolerance and respect, so I figured I would go and show my tolerance and respect for other people's views of my costume." It's suddenly sounding like the Death Camp of Tolerance episode of South Park. - David Langlieb, author of......

Let's take a look back at a week that raised this Zen koan: if Kevin Federline got into a wrestling ring with a wrestler, who would you root for? Austinist was in an entertainment state of mind as they covered the dickens out of the Austin Film Festival, depicted all the Big 12 football coaches as South Park characters, and interviewed Jose Gonzalez. Chicagoist talked about the passion as they bid adieu to Bell......

Our friend Alex Blagg over at Best Week Ever actually went down to the Save the Penny...conference?...in Times Square today and interviewed Kevin Federline. Watch the video! And then rewatch Britney's Dateline interview and try to decide who's the brains in the family. Also, please comment with guesses in the comment section on what K-Fed meant when he said "let's do it big 96" in his speech about how much he loves pennies. Our......

In one of the more odd press releases we have received this week, we learn that Sir Richard Branson and Kevin Federline will be teaming up to "save the U.S. penny from annihilation". Yes, the two unite with Common Cents Policy Director Matthew Eggers to put emphasis on the value of a penny (that K-Fed really is simple isn't he), in the face of its possible legislative elimination. Virgin Mobile reps will be gathering signatures......

Animal Magazine's 6th Issue comes out this week-- and Bucky was nice enough to messenger us over a copy, since we unfortunately missed Animal's "Save Krucoff" themed party at BLVD on Wednesday night. The magazine is beatuiful and glossy and filled with pictures of scantily clad girls-- but we were interested in one feature in particular: a series of interviews with some of our NYC blog colleagues. Our favorite quotes: Joey Arak (Curbed): "People......

If the lead of a play or musical is sick and an understudy performs instead, can you ask for your money back? I'm especially interested in knowing about cases where the lead performer is a big star. It all depends on how that star is billed in the show, so check your Playbill or the theater's marquee for clues. For example, both Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane are listed above the title in the......

Does FreshDirect explain its "no tipping" policy to its employees? Because Tessa on Metroblogging recounted getting mugged by her FreshDirect delivery guy last week:The delivery guy who was a cross between Mark Wahlberg and Kevin Federline told me tipping was optional. I told him I knew. He then said "Where's my tip?" Aghast. I immediately decided not to tip him. Wrong answer. The guy put his foot in my door and would not let me......

Clever, clever Britney Spears. Not only does she plan her wedding to Kevin Federline - who is the 3 D's from the looks of things (dancer, deadbeatish dad, deadweight) - during Emmy weekend when all of the paparazzi is getting ready for tonight's TV festivities, she made sure Macaulay Culkin would take the headlines yesterday! The Star reported that the wedding took place last night in Studio City, at the home of Britney's wedding planner's......

So we last left the cast burning all of their items in a post-tag sale, cleansing, "past be gone" bonfire...as Radiohead's Lucky played in the background. Has anyone "been pulled out of the aircrash" since? Not quite yet, in fact this last episode may have left some of the Fishers boarding a doomed plane. To recap: Nate decides to start smoking pot again, follows a dog he believes is Lisa to a psychic where she......
