LADY GAGA AIN'T GOT NOTHIN' ON OUR U.S. SOLDIERS! WATCH AS THEY REMAKE HER "TELEPHONE" VIDEO, IT'S A MUST SEE! (VIDEO)
God Bless Our Troops! Not only for protecting us, but for entertaining us to tears. This video of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan dancing and lip-sinking to Lady Gaga (during their down time?) is hi-lar-ious. You MUST watch it!
The YouTube user also had this to say:
This a couple guys located in afghanistan, that re-made the music video by Lady Gaga....Telephone. Prepare yourself for a fantastical journey. Right now this is the temporary version, we have more scenes to cut, and edit, however with guys always on mission it is harder to film than you think.
God Bless 'em!

APRIL WRAP UP: WAIT-- WE MISSED BRETT MICHAELS, THE LOUISIANA OIL SPILL, AND THE ARIZONA IMMIGRATION LAW-- LET'S DISCUSS!
There are so many news items going on in L.A., let alone the world and we just can't cover it all. But, there are a few events that deserve at least a mention:
Our favorite Rocker of Love, Brett Michaels, is said to have suffered a set back in his recovery and is being watched closely in case of seizures. Earlier in the week he was said to be in stable condition and to have shown some improvement after the brain hemmorhage that he suffered last Friday. He was even said to be talking. We had to make mention because we have been watching "Celebrity Apprentice" and we are former fans of his reality show "Rock of Love" (the first season, not the second). Blessings to him and his family as he travels the path of recovery. If you know Brett's True Hollywood Story, he'd been in critical danger on other occassions in his life for different reasons but has always come through. Hopefully, this will again be the case. Complete story here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/27/bret-michaels-speaks-in-s_n_554052.html
Okay, we know you've heard about the oil spill that is happening in ocean water near the Louisiana coastline. In summary: On April 22nd an off-shore drilling explosion is causing oil major spillage in the ocean waters near Louisiana. Basically, the oil is gushing out of the ocean floor to the tune of 5,000 barrels per day. The results of that explosion are tremendous: 17 people were injured and 11 are unaccounted for (missing). Another tragedy is that all of the oil that is poisoning the ocean is headed straight for the Louisiana shoreline, and is said to possibly reach the coast as early as tonight. This is horrible for sea life, wildlife and humans alike. And, not to mention that we're talkin' about Louisiana, the state (and people) that suffered unrecoverable damage from massive flooding after Hurrican Katrina ripped through. Ay, ay, ay, now this! Watch the video for details. It's absolutely horrible...and like the recent coal mining accident that killed and injured several, it's all in the name of BIG OIL. Something needs to change. For the Complete Story:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/29/louisiana-oil-spill-gets_n_556444.html
It's totally going down in Arizona after the immigration bill SB1070 was signed into law. Per an article on Huffington post.com, the law authorizes police detention based on suspicion of illegal presence on U.S. soil and the failure to provide documentation to prove otherwise. The suspicion of illegal status CAN be based on skin color which has got a lot of folks up in arms. Can you say, racial profiling in epic proportions? Granted, there are alot of people (based on the pic above alone) who are undocumented in the U.S. but this has been the case for decades. These people feel like they are at home and they are fighting mad, and fighting back. There also sympathy groups getting on board with threats to boycott the state. Even L.A.'s mayor Villaraigosa has stamped his approval of L.A. participating in the widely discussed boycott. This battle is going to be a long and ugly one from what we can tell. Wonder if something like that would happen here in L.A.? If they made all of the "illegals" go home, L.A. would probably shut down completely. I swear, it's like we're living in Tijuana. Oops! Did we say that out loud?? For the Complete Story: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/emma-rubysachs/legal-challenge-to-arizon_b_557678.html

LEXUS WON'T BE LEFT BEHIND IN THE "GO GREEN" MOVEMENT, THEIR NEW HYBRID BICYCLE TELLS US SO
What do you think of auto-maker Lexus (TOYOTA) giving us their take on going green into the future? It's a electrically motorized hybrid with an 8 speed transmission. Ooh, ooh, we'll take one! It hasn't debuted yet (said to be debuting at London's Great London Bike Ride) but we're on board. Put us on the waiting list! It will definitely zip us around quicker in this treacherous L.A. traffic. And, ohhh, how we hate L.A. traffic.

And, remember when she performed "Swagger Like Us" on stage during last year's Grammy Awards alonside Jay Z, Kanye, T.I., and Lil' Wayne, while on the verge of birthing her baby? The baby was moving around during pre-show interviews and it was her due date for crying out loud! She was quoted afterward saying that her son was poised to be a hip hop star. Now that's bad-ass! We're officially fans!

WTF?!: COURTNEY LOVE HAD AN 8 MONTH AFFAIR WITH GWEN STEFANI'S HUSBAND, AND GWEN KNOWS?
Courtney Love recently interviewed with Howard Stern and disclosed that she had an 8 month affair with Gwen's husband, Gavin Rossdale while he and Gwen were together. What she didn't say was whether or not he and Gwen were MARRIED at the time but she did admit that Gwen knew.
Hmmm. Well, if Gwen knows then why the F do we care???? Next!Everyone gave me so much s— because Gavin sounded like a lot like Kurt….” Love said. “But man, he was such an Adonis in his day! He got good in bed … something happened. Maybe Gwen taught him, for all I know.” Stern then asked her, “You were [having sex] him while he was with Gwen Stefani?” “Yes,” Love replied. “She does know.” Stern continued: “You mean he was having sex with you while he was with her?” “Everyone … yeah … and a few other people,” Love said. “We didn’t have a lot of pressure on each other, but we did like each other quite a bit.”

IVANKA TRUMP "NOT OVERLY SUPPORTIVE" OF OBAMA, EXPRESSES WORRY FOR HER CHILDREN AND THEIRS (VIDEO)
American Princess, Ivanka Trump bashed Obama on the Hannity Show, but is that really news? Given the circles in which she runs, and the fact this is Sean Hannity on Fox News, no it's not. It's rare that we see her outside of her daddy's show Celebrity Apprentice (which we love her on), so we decided to share this clip with you. She definitely went to the Trump School of Speak and Move 'cause the girl is just like her pops... minus the comb over. Womp, womp.

SANDRA FILES FOR DIVORCE, MOVES ON WITH ADOPTED BABY BOY
"Yes, I have filed for divorce," the 45-year-old Oscar-winning actress said in an interview. "I'm sad and I am scared."But after the Oscars is when Jesse's tattoo'd skeletons came out of the closet. Oops!
Bullock and James, 41, began the adoption process four years ago, the report said, and brought 3 1/2-month-old Louis Bardo Bullock home in January but decided to keep the news to themselves until after the Oscars.
PLAYBOY MOGUL HUGH HEFNER SAVES THE HOLLYWOOD SIGN WITH $900K DONATION
MAYWEATHER READIES FOR MOSELY, "NOTICEABLY EDGY, DENYING VISITORS, EXTENDING TRAINING HOURS" SAYS L.A. TIMES
Floyd and Shane are polar opposites as far as personality goes, and we don't need a documentary to show us that. But, as for who has the better boxing skills and savvy, well, we will just have to wait until Saturday to see who's really ready. Mosley, at 38 years old, is the underdog. He has been out of the action for more than a year and again-- he's 38. And, 38 years old ain't the new 28 in the boxing ring. On the other hand, Mayweather, at 33 years old, is as fit and confident as any athlete ten years his junior. That, along with his 40-0 record, which includes a win against Oscar De La Hoya (the most lucrative in boxing history), gives him the edge-- in our opinion.

SPACE WATCH: SCIENTIST SAYS WE SHOULD FEAR ALIENS 'CAUSE THEY ONLY WANT US FOR OUR RESOURCES. IS AMERICA IN FOR THE ULTIMATE KARMA???
Anyone else watching the TV show "V" on channel 7? (if not, check it out on line @ abc.go.tv!) Well, talk is that we are headed for an age where the aliens are de-cloaked (unmasked) and living among us as part of one big happy(?) family. Scientist, Stephen Hawking says in an interview with PBS's Charlie Rose that they are up to no good and it is imperative that humans explore and conquer new living quarters out in the cosmos, ASAP. He says it's vital for the survival of the human race 'cause otherwise we're doomed just waiting for this alien-on-earth party like sitting ducks.
UNDERDOG VS THE FLYING SORCERERS, UNDERDOG'S UNITE! (Video)
In this episode of UNDERDOG, Sweet Polly Purebred was kidnapped by (aliens) The Flying Sorcerers because the ruler suddenly had to have her as his baking slave. You see, King Kup loved him some cake and after Sweet Polly demonstrated her baking skills on television (aliens apparently watch our TV too) the king just had to have her as his personal baking slave. Soon King Kup's goons had her baking 50 cakes in his over-sized kitchen with over-sized mixing bowls. These Sorcerers live on a nearby planet so when UNDERDOG heard Sweet Polly's cries, he zooms off into the galaxies to save her. UNDERDOG has NO limitations! He fights anywhere, anytime, anyone. He fights armies single-handedly and always gets out of his jams. We have posted part 4 of this week's chosen episode, "The Flying Sorcerers" in respect and recognition of the Star Gates which have begun opening as of January of this year. Enjoy!
Btw, In case you question why we always post Part 4, it's because this part is always the best 'cause it's when UNDERDOG kicks major azz. He is our Cosmic Hero! We Love You UNDERDOG!

HEALTH WATCH: Deadly Airborne Fungus Travels to Oregon from Canada, California at Risk (VIDEO)
Be afraid, be verrrry afraid! Scientists are warning that a potentially lethal strain of fungus called Cryptococcus grattii has recently hit the Northwest (Oregon, Washington), and California could be next. There were 21 cases analyzed in the NW and 6 of those cases resulted in death(25% death rate). It's being reported that this strain, unlike it's predecessor, can attack and affect a healthy immune system. Oh-- and it's airborne!
Some of the symptoms of C. grattii are chronic coughing, sharp chest pain, shortness of breath, headache, fever and weight loss. The fungus can be treated but not prevented. And, there is no vaccine at this time. It has also been found in about 50 cases of cats and dogs but they say it isn't passing between humans and animals. The origin of the airborne fungus is unknown and as of yet untraceable. It is said to have been airborne for at least 10 years now having traveled from British Columbia/Canada to now Oregon and WA, potentially hitting California next.
Doctors and Scientists are leery about the news getting out for fear of people with head-cases, or people who only imagine they have it after hearing the symptoms, unnecessarily taxing already under staffed healthcare facilities. These fears cause them to respond to the mayhem with, "Overall it's a low threat." Well, we ain't buyin' it! Did we mention that antibiotics won't work here? There's NO vaccine! Imagine that new Spring and Summer look is a gas mask and rubber gloves. What has the world come to? *sprays, lysol* We advise that you first watch the video so you're better informed, next wash your hands (constantly), stay away from folks with the above listed symptoms, and pray dog-dangit! We don't know about you but we're staying inside...
