Prom Picture Throwback: Barack Obama (1979)
Have you seen the old throwback photos of your parents at their Prom? Well this is no different. I’m not sure what makes this photo so intriguing but it is. Barack is just one cool bastard. Here he is, 17 years old, complete with a Lionel Richie-esque fro, and a Hawaian Lei. 1979 seems to have been a good year for our Potus as he gets ready to shut it down at the Punahou School in Hawaii.
Don’t worry this was 10 years before Michelle arrived on the scene. As I remember their first date was to go see Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing, which was released in 1989. …and ever since then, he’s been doing the right thing!

How Much Does the Most Beautiful Woman in the World Workout?
So, Gwyneth Paltrow is 40-years-old and was voted the “most beautiful woman” by People magazine. That should be evidence enough that she obviously must take great care of her body. Sure, she’s admitted to using fancy creams for her skin and going on a “gluten-free” diet, but those are just the easy things behind her incredible body and glowing skin. In a recent interview with WWD, the actress talked in detail about what her daily routine is like.
“I wake up at 7 a.m., I get (the kids) fed, and I get them dressed in their uniforms, any bits of homework are finished. I take them to school. She (Apple…yes that’s really her name) gets dropped off at 8:25 a.m., and he (Moses) gets dropped off at 8:45 a.m., so we have a croissant together in his school dining room and we do reading together. Then I go home and I work for one hour on all the e-mails that come in overnight from L.A. Then I exercise from about 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Then I work on Goop pretty much the rest of the day until I pick up my kids and then they have various activities.”
Yeah, TWO HOURS of exercise every single day. That’s the kind of dedication you need to still look that good at 40-years-old. What do you even do for two hours? I work out for 30-45 minutes, and I can’t move for the rest of the day. Two hours, every single day? That’s just insane. Do you know how many donuts I could eat in two hours? How many zombies I could kill? How many episodes of Arrested Development I could watch? There are so many other things I would rather be doing than exercising for two hours.

Jose Canseco Rape?
Well, this is certainly a strange story. Former Major League baseball player/steroid user Jose Canseco has been accused of sexual assault. That’s not even the strange part, though! The strange part is that this news wasn’t leaked by TMZ or anything, it was leaked by Jose Canseco himself! On Twitter! The 48-year-old juiced up monster tweeted about how Las Vegas police had just left his house, and informed him that he was being charged with rape.
Canseco laughed off the charge on Twitter and he even tweeted the name and workplace of one of the victims in the case. Some of that information has since been deleted, but Jose made it clear on his Twitter account that he would be fighting these charges. He even says he will take a polygraph test. He tweeted,
“Truth or dare. I dare u to take a polygraph on national tv. I will take one.”
Canseco angered some of his Twitter followers by posting personal information about the victim, which is probably why he ended up deleting the information.
However, he denies deleting anything and tweeted,
“For the record I do not delete tweets. I have nothing to hide. The truth always comes out.”
According to Canesco, the cops that visited his house claim that he drugged the girls and then raped them. Apparently, the details of the case are pretty disgusting and horrifying, but he claims that he did nothing wrong. The former baseball player did not return calls immediately, but he did make his planned trip out to Texas.
He’s in Texas to play for the Fort Worth Cats, which is a baseball team in what you call the “Independent League” it’s basically a step below the Minor Leagues and a step above your average adult softball league, which Jose has actually played in before. Anyway, when Canseco landed in Texas, he tweeted a photo of him getting “swarmed” by the media. “At lagrave field getting swarmed by the media already. Lol.” he posted on his Twitter page.
I’m not so sure he was “swarmed” the picture only shows like three reporters, but I guess that is a lot of people for Jose Canseco. A spokeswoman for Canseco claimed that she had no immediate information about the case, and Canseco’s agent did not return calls from the media. So, it appears like the only one talking about the case is the slugger himself.
Such a strange story. I’ve never seen someone act this way after finding out they were being accused of rape. It’s like he thinks it’s some big joke. Even if the rape is completely made up, I’d still be f–king terrified! I certainly wouldn’t be “loling” about on Twitter. That will not look good in front of the judge. He needs to take this more seriously, especially if he didn’t do anything. His brain must be still feeling it after that ball hit him in the head.

Justin Bieber’s Strict Party Rules
Is it your lifelong dream to party with Justin Bieber? If you answered yes, then please go seek help. Not mental help, I mean you might want to get help from a lawyer. Why? Because anyone who wants to party with Justin Bieber at his home must first sign a lengthy contract before they are allowed in to the party. The contract states that if you blog/tweet any confidential photos or videos, you could be sued for $5 million. The document also makes sure party goers know they are fully responsible for themselves, and their actions.
The strange contract even states that they could be participating in “potentially hazardous” activities! What the hell is going on at these parties? I would think the most dangerous thing at a Bieber party would be the risk of him actually singing during it. The contract makes it clear that what happens at the Bieber party, stays at the Bieber party. Guests cannot talk about anything regarding the party, which includes the, “physical health, or the philosophical, spiritual or other views or characteristics” of Bieber and his guests.
One has to wonder why someone so paranoid would even bother throwing a party and inviting people he doesn’t know in the first place. Also, what is he doing in these parties that are so bad? If they were all just playing Xbox and drinking wine coolers, I doubt there would be a need for this contract. Bieber must be doing some pretty freaky sh-t during these parties. I mean, we already know he smokes pot. He was caught smoking pot in January in a hotel room in Newport Beach. The media had a field day with those photos, and it forced Bieber to sort of apologize on his Twitter account.
He claimed that he was trying to be better, but he has certainly gone down hill since then. He’s had fights with his neighbors, meltdowns on Twitter, a horrible birthday, a rocky relationship with Selena and just recently he was booed while accepting an award at the Billboard Music Awards. It’s safe to say that Justin Bieber isn’t the little boy singing to Usher on Youtube anymore.
It’s clear that Bieber has some issues that need to be worked out. It could be that he feels betrayed by people who were once close with him. Last month he talked about his major trust issues. He told Teen Vogue,
“I get good vibes from people all the time, and I probably could get along with them and be their friend, but now I just don’t trust anybody. Literally, my phone never rings. I only have, like, four people that I keep in contact with. I don’t need a bunch of friends to make me happy. I just need the people close to me that I love, that’s all.”
Aw, don’t you feel bad for Bieber now? No? You still think he is a major tool? Yeah, me too.

Michael B Jordan Responds to Rumors of Him Being in the Next Fantastic Four Movie [video]
One of my all time favorite, and sometimes underrated, actors Michael B. Jordan is close to closing the deal on the New Fantastic 4 reboot. The debate has been brewing on the internet for weeks now, and Michael himself has said that nothing is final. Jordan has killed it in critical roles on NBC’s Friday Night Lights and The Parenthood but you might remember him from his role in The Wire! He was Wallace!
Yeah time flies and now that he has been doing work on the big screen, he is in contention to play Johnny Storm or as most people know the character as, The Human Torch!
People are going nutso as they usually do when a comic book character switches race, going from black to white or vice versa. I’m past that and I’m looking at who can really “do the damn thing” and for me MBJ is the truth. When asked if he would be playing the role as the Human Torch he doesn’t put on much of a poker face,
