Art Imitates Life on, Um, Dancing with the Stars

So we were catching up on our train-wreck viewing on Tivo last night and saw a bit of Dancing with the Stars (we know, we know, but it’s like sequined crack!).

Jezebel calls bullshit — and perfectly rightly so! — on Vanity Fair not going the full monty with their “naked” male comedians spoof cover. The Frisky alerts us to Diddy’s ridiculous mid-Tantric sex Twittering. If you’re twittering while doing Tantra, then you’re not doing Tantra. The unscrupulous TMZ reports that a similarly unscrupulous t-shirt company […]
