Sloppy Seconds: Free Boobs!

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has a penchant for pretty women (what politician doesn't?). And it's a source of "suffering" for his wife, Veronica Lario, she wrote in an open letter. [Yahoo!]

Simon Cowell joked that he's "secretly in love" with fellow American Idol judge Paula Abdul. And we wouldn't be all that surprised if he jerked off to the "Cold Hearted Snake" video back in the day... or if he still does. [Us]

While You Were Sleeping: The Fate of Project Runway

Brian Fairbanks — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 13:16:00 GMT

Mona Lisa from burger grease! The great smirking later has never been sexier. (Luckily, this isn't one of those "it's a turd shaped like my aunt Josefa, let's sell it on eBay" things, but art.)

A strip club takes on the McDonald's logo, McDonald's takes them to court.

You think Snoop Dogg's remixes of Johnny Cash songs will be any good?

Two typos, two accidental calls to two different phone sex lines. The first, which Emily mentioned yesterday, involves cereal, the second... Hillary Clinton.

Jonathan Coulton has a new DVD out called Best. Concert. Ever. We predict it will be a live recording.

NBC affiliates should learn never to underestimate Jay Leno's ability to draw viewers.

Meanwhile, the television company will air a documentary focused on Farrah Fawcett's battle with breast cancer.

The Project Runway lawsuit was settled-- the show will air again this summer, this time on the Lifetime Network.

And instead of beating up the fan who exposed himself to her, Lady Gaga signed the man's naughty bits.

eBay Removes Kerry Katona's Breast Implant

Brian Fairbanks — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 17:04:00 GMT

Kerry Katona did two things right: one, she went on MTV in the UK and had her 34-double-G's removed. Those fake boobs were ridiculous and very unattractive (to our minds.)

The second thing she did was even more inspired-- she autographed one of those implants and put it on eBay for The Breast Cancer Campaign...

According to Fox News, which we will quote from here so you don't have to give them any of your page views, eBay then did the dumbest thing imaginable: it pulled the auction.

"The implant was on eBay and I believe the idea was to raise money for Breast Cancer Campaign," a rep for the charity told Tarts. "However eBay have now taken the item off because people were putting fake bids in, £8 million ($11.34 million US) at one point."

But according to eBay it wasn’t bogus bidders that resulted in the item being removed, it was actually Katona who broke the rules.

"Our policy team weighed in and said that this auction was removed for the Charity Violation contained within the item description as there was no letter of written consent by eBay's Office of the President to allow the item to be sold under our Charity guidelines," an eBay rep told Tarts.

Oh, shut up, eBay. You're just a bunch of conservative whimps that always side with the ripoff artists when they claim to have never received expensive items from honest sellers. And your conservative founder is running to further ruin the state of California as a Republican governor. eBay, you should know, we have negative feedback to give you.

12-Year-Old Girl Tells Your Uterus What's Up

Emily Farris — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 18:45:00 GMT

This little girl is cute, right? Yeah. Just wait until you hear her speak.

She delivered this to her seventh-grade speech class. (Seventh grade speech class?!). We're all for free speech but perhaps a female should go through puberty before she starts speaking out on abortion. We hate to admit, though, that if we were grading her speech, we would have given her an 'A' (well, an B+ based on the fact that she didn't support her facts about breast cancer, infertility, and depression)—as much as it would have killed us to do so.

Woman Gets Breast Cancer, So Workplace Finds An Excuse To Fire Her

Brian Fairbanks — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 14:47:00 GMT

It's like Philadelphia, only somehow more depressing.

A woman in Toronto was diagnosed with breast cancer a few weeks ago. She told her boss, who expressed sympathy. She was asked to put all of the information about her necessary time off in writing. She did so, stating that she would work right up until the heavy part of the procedures began, scheduled for last week. When her ex-husband suggested she get a second opinion on her diagnosis, she wrote a second note stating that she would stay on indefinitely.

That's what she found out that her company had considered her first note a letter of resignation and told her, "Sorry, nah nah, you can't take it back."

You think we're kidding?

Torrejon couldn't believe what she was reading. Nowhere in her letter or her conversations with the McDonalds had she ever suggested quitting her job. As an ill single mom [with two kids-- and don't forget the "ill" is "with breast cancer"], resigning is the last thing she could afford to do right now.
At their management office, a flustered Geri McDonald repeated their contention that Torrejon had submitted a letter of resignation. When told that we had seen a copy of the letter and it appeared to be nothing of the kind, McDonald pursed her lips and said, "I have nothing else to say."

The company may have suspected that Miss Torrejon is an illegal immigrant or some other type that might not fight back, but they were wrong. This was an extensive and widely-distributed story in yesterday's Toronto Sun. What can she do now? Possibly sue. Possibly get the government involved-- since, according to one local human rights league, McDonald and friends violated a law barring discrimination against the disabled, a category which Torrejon may fall under.

Co-Ed Magazine Picks The 52 Best All-Natural Breasts...

Brian Fairbanks — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 17:52:00 GMT

...in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, of course. Gotta love the shameless ploy...

Here are our ten more-or-less SFW favorites... in no particular order, mind you.

Rosario Dawson

Scarlett Johansson

Monica Belluci

Elizabeth Hurley

Bridget Bardot

Salma Hayek

What, no America Ferrera?

Unfortunately, the 52 listed all big breasted babes. You know what they say about variety, guys: we could have used some smaller boobs on that survey. And another thing: we heard Keeley Hazell's boobs are, in fact, silicone, so we ruled her out even though Co-Ed included her (and at #2!) Read the rest of their list here, which contains NSFW images galore...

For Every Action, There Is An Equal And Opposite (Man Boob) Reaction...

Brian Fairbanks — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 20:22:00 GMT

Remember Boobs on Bikes, the hottest boobs-on-motorcycles parade in the history of the modern world?

Nope, we're not tired of talking about it yet...

According to our #1 source for B on B info, Stuff(.co.nz.com), these boobs are, technically, the safe for work kind. In other words, we're talking about man boobs... glorious, glorious... man boobs.

Ra Dallas (a total porn star name if it were spelled "Raw Dallas") is a morning drive-time DJ on the Tahu FM radio station. He caught the Auckland procession live on television and imagined how much funnier it would have been with dudes on the bikes without the female porn stars... with the dudes topless, of course.

"Then I thought, `Wouldn't it be great if we could do something like that and actually make some money out of it for a good cause,"' he said.

"It's about supporting our women and talking about this killer disease that's taking our mothers, our sisters, our wives and grandmothers." [Stuff]

Now that's a hero, damn it: not only is he raising money for women's health, he's doing it while embarrassing himself in the most public way imaginable (well, that is, second only to choking the chicken on live television.)

We'll keep you posted in case this turns out to be brilliant...

Coffee And Nuts Will Give You Manboobs

Brian Fairbanks — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 15:03:00 GMT

We couldn't bring ourselves to post pictures of major manboobs, so this will have to do.

Are you a man? Do you drink instant coffee and/or eat Brazilian nuts? No? Okay, good, we'll still be your friend.

However, if you're a man who does either of these things, you're in danger of growing manboobs, according to a strange new study...

The products contained far higher levels of gender-bending chemicals, known as phytoestrogens, than previously thought.
Dr Gunter Kuhnle, of the MRC Dunn Human Nutrition Unit in Cambridge, analysed 500 foods and drinks.
Instant coffee had 1,833 micrograms of the oestrogen-like chemicals per 100g, while Brazil nuts had 867 micrograms.
Phytoestrogens are known to cause fertility problems in animals and may give women a greater risk of breast cancer.

This was reported in the Sun (UK), so don't take our word for it. After all, the MRC Dunn Human Nutrition Unit in Cambridge sounds like half the spam e-mails in our inbox right now... but, just to be on the safe side, maybe avoid that stuff for now?

And some sad news: Christina Applegate is suffering from breast cancer. Thankfully, the disease is believed to be in the early stages and Applegate is expected to make it out okay.

Saving Breasts One Click at a Time

Emily Farris — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 18:02:00 GMT

The Breast Cancer Site (thebreastcancersite.com) will donate $10,000 to its charity partners for free mammograms if the site receives 8 million clicks in June. So far, they've reached 7.3% of their goal (and it's only June 3, not bad) but just think: one little click from you can help women get free mammograms. Which means there will be more beautiful breasts on this earth for you to enjoy.

So go click for boobies!
