i bet you forgot she existed. remember when she dated marilyn manson?

well, yesterday i read this pretty interesting interview with her, and today it turns out she's been fired by her agent for exposing some adam sandler sexism in this tweet, though i suspect it also had to do with the content of the interview, which was fairly critical of the hollywood system in general.

"There is sexism — I'm not denying its existence. But I'm saying that I will deny its effort against me. I just pay it no nevermind and say, 'Get out of my way.'"

sara vs tyler

"As journalists and colleagues defend, excuse and congratulate 'Tyler, the Creator,' I find it impossible not to comment. In any other industry would I be expected to tolerate, overlook, and find deeper meaning in this kid's sickening rhetoric? Why should I care about this music or its 'brilliance' when the message is so repulsive and irresponsible?... The more I think about it, the more I think people don't actually want to go up against this particular bully because he's popular. Who sticks up for women and gay people now? It seems entirely uncool to do so in the indie rock world, and I'll argue that point with ANYONE." (via)

tyler's twitter response:

If Tegan And Sara Need Some Hard Dick, Hit Me Up!

cute.

well, well, well.

yesterday, andy roddick lost in the second round of the us open. what a terrible disappointment. additionally, he got called for three foot-faults, prompting him to fly off the handle a little bit, arguing with the chair umpire, ridiculing a lineswoman, yelling, swearing, etc.

you may remember a similar situation at last year's open, involving black woman serena williams. she went bonkers after being issued a foot fault penalty (except hers was on match point in the semifinals). she was fined $82,500 and put on a two-year probation. roddick was not issued any penalty, and the lineswoman was replaced, rendering this shit sexist / racist.

goooooo john isner!

oh crap.

The N.C.A.A. is conducting a wide-ranging investigation into the University of Tennessee’s football recruiting practices, according to interviews with several prospects, their family members and high school administrators. A significant part of the investigation is focused on the use of recruiting hostesses who have become folk heroes on Tennessee Internet message boards for their ability to help lure top recruits.
...
Two of Lattimore’s teammates, Brandon Willis and Corey Miller, have orally committed to Tennessee. Lattimore described the hostesses as “real pretty, real nice and just real cool.” He said he thought they had “a lot” of influence in Miller’s and Willis’s commitments to Tennessee. (via)
