Okay. So, Jenna looks GLORIOUS in this Zuhair Murad. It’s very much in the same family as Jaimie Alexander’s frock — full skirt, deep vee, pockets, and a pattern, and I am HERE for it. What I am not here for is whatever the hell was happening to Channing’s head: And this is, like, a Read More ...

Erin H

YASSSSSS

The 1986 romantic comedy Pretty in Pink turns 30 this year. Those who weren't around to live through the days of big shoulder pads and the perfectly-captured teen love angst of mid-1980s era John Hughes films can catch this classic from his repertoire when it hits select theaters nationwide next...

Golden Globes Fug Carpet: Katy Perry in Prada

fug, really? i thought she looked great!

Apparently Katy switched to Leslie Fremar (stylist to Julianne Moore, Reese Witherpoon, Charlize) for this night, the implication being she’s aiming for more sophistication and simplicity, and Fremar told People Stylewatch that she only had a week to pull this together. I’m intrigued by the switch, but I wish she’d had more time. Because I keep feeling like this Read More ...

PSA: Take Your Fucking Lunch Break

by Tracy Moore
Erin H

fuck you, jezebel. you don't know me.

There are two kinds of people who don’t take their lunch breaks: Martyrs and assholes. Martyrs work through lunch so everyone can see how hard working and devoted they are. Assholes are either lucky enough to love what they do so much that they simply want to keep working, relaxation be damned, or are people who are too inexperienced or weak willed to use the time. You’re all stupid: Take your fucking lunch break.

Marco Rubio Calls Sean Penn's El Chapo Interview ‘Grotesque’

by Marie Lodi on The Slot, shared by Marie Lodi to Jezebel
Erin H

God help me, I agree with Marco Rubio.

Curious about what Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio thinks about Sean Penn’s controversial Rolling Stone interview with El Chapo? I know I am. During an appearance on ABC’s This Week, Rubio told George Stephanopoulos he found it “grotesque.” And he wasn’t referring to the gross fart that Penn let fly during his meeting with the drug lord. I cannot stop thinking about his “traveler’s flatulence.

Here's How Your Toughest, Funniest Friend Might Find Herself in an Abusive Relationship

After comedian Beth Stelling came forward on her Instagram in late December with photos of bruises and stories of alleged rape and abuse by another comedian, a man named Cale Hartmann, the response from the comedy community has been solid: women especially have made statements of unequivocal support for Stelling, and quite a few have told similar stories of their own.

Erykah Badu Made a Mixtape to Save the Bees

by Julianne Escobedo Shepherd on The Muse, shared by Julianne Escobedo Shepherd to Jezebel
Erin H

i am pleased and confused by this. cause they ain't hav'n that shit on MARS.

Erykah Badu is as musically omnivorous as the best of ‘em, not just writing, creating, producing and recording songs but DJing them, too, under her turntables moniker DJ Low Down Loretta Brown. As another feather in her cap for this prolific streak she’s been having of late, she went on Zane Lowe’s Beats show right before U Cain’t Use My Phone and dropped a mix of jams she loves, staying wavy and dedicating it to the bees (actual bees) because, she wrote, “Save the bees, else we ain’t gone have no where to fight and discriminate… cause they aint have’n that shit on MARS.” It is true! They ain’t have that shit on Mars, and she is correct that if the bees die, we’re all toast.

Pierre Boulez, Composer and Frank Zappa Collaborator, Dead at 90

Erin H

Itzhak Perlman dedicated the performance last night to Boulez. I wasn't familiar with him prior to that, and I've spent the better part of today finding pieces to listen to. I'm disappointed that I didn't learn about him early enough to see him conduct in Chicago.

Pierre Boulez, a maverick composer and conductor who once worked on one of Frank Zappa's classical albums, died at his home in Baden-Baden, Germany on Tuesday. He was 90. The Philharmonie de Paris confirmed his death, according to The New York Times. "Audacity, innovation, creativity – that is what Pierre Boulez...

by Bobby Finger
Erin H

then why did you sell the rights? SHUT UP, OLD MAN.

In an interview with Charlie Rose, Star War creator George Lucas did a lot of complaining about The Force Awakens—the first installment of the franchise since Lucas sold it to Disney for $4 billion. Of the new film, he said, “They wanted to do a retro movie. I don’t like that... These are my kids, all the Star Wars films. I loved them. I created them.”

Dessert Might Give You the Best Bang for Your Buck at the Restaurant

by Melanie Pinola
Erin H

if you are going to a restaurant to get the most bang for your buck, you are doing it wrong. go to a restaurant to eat something beyond your capabilities or imagination, to eat something you didn't have to make yourself, to be waited on, to have a special time. If you're concerned with the cost-to-price ratio, you should maybe stay at home and cook for yourself.

Ordering dessert might sometimes feel like a luxury, but it actually might be the wisest thing to order on the menu—at least in terms of return on investment.

PBR Now Making Alcoholic Root Beer — Food News

by Kristin Appenbrink
Erin H

Interesting, given the recent minor uproar of "who owns Small Town". I guess the answer is "The Ruuskies" now.

Pabst Blue Ribbon, purveyors of the cheap beer beloved by college kids and 20-somethings everywhere, has added another beverage to their offerings.

The company recently purchased Small Town, a brewery in Illinois, which makes boozy root beer. That's right, they are putting the beer back in root beer.

Known Frauds the Mast Brothers Retreat From the Cruel Schoolyard of the Chocolate Industry

by Hillary Crosley Coker
Erin H

Suze! They're taking their ball of terrible tasting industrial chocolate and going home. To their mansions lined with money.

Another chapter is unfolding in the story of the fraudulent chocolate makers the Mast Brothers, dubbed the “Milli Vanilli of chocolate” for their practices of remelting industrial chocolate and selling it as “bar-to-bean.” In an emo open letter on Tuesday, the bros announced that they’re stepping away from the mean, mean chocolate industry for kinder, gentler waters…most likely, the waters in their very expensive Brooklyn brownstones.

The TSA Cares Helpline Assists Veterans and Travelers with Disabilities Through Security

by Heather Yamada-Hosley
Erin H

i've been treated REALLY well by the TSA since i started traveling with my wheelchair - everywhere except o'hare. i'll be taking the chair to hawaii in february, but my trip to asia next fall and france in 2017, it won't be coming with me, i think. i'll definitely call the help line in advance for those trips since i can't stand up for long periods, so waiting in line is painful.

Getting through airport security is unpleasant enough without the added hassle that can come from special circumstances like having metal implants, a prosthesis, or a service animal. If that sounds like you or someone you love, the TSA Cares helpline can help you get through those security checkpoints easily.
