Jesse Eisenberg has another play coming out

A play by the actor Jesse Eisenberg is one of five world premieres that will highlight the 2012-13 season for the Rattlestick Playwrights Theater, the company announced. Mr. Eisenberg (“The Social Network”) was nominated for a Drama League Award this year for his previous Rattlestick production, “Asuncion,” which he wrote and starred in. His forthcoming drama, “The Revisionist,” focuses on a struggling writer who travels to Poland to stay with his 73-year-old second cousin, who is a Holocaust survivor. The play will be directed by Kip Fagan, with performances scheduled to begin on Feb. 6 at the Cherry Lane Theater.


The season will start on Sept. 13 with “Through the Yellow Hour,” a new play written and directed by Adam Rapp (“Red Light Winter”), about one woman’s attempt to survive apocalyptic events. That is to be followed by, among others, “The Correspondent,” written by Ken Urban (“The Private Lives of Eskimos”), and “Basilica,” written by Mando Alvarado (“The Yellow Brick Road”).

From the Rattlestick Playwrights Theater Website

THE REVISIONIST
Written by Jesse Eisenberg; Directed by Kip Fagan
February 6 – April 20; opening scheduled for February 21
At the Cherry Lane Theatre
David, a fledgling writer, flies to Poland to stay with Maria, his 73 year-old second cousin, to find the peace he needs to revise his book. Maria is a lonely widow and a Holocaust survivor who wants to reconnect with her distant American family.  As David and Maria’s relationship develops, she reveals details about her complicated post-war past that irreparably alters their relationship and teaches them something new about what it means to be a family.
Jesse Eisenberg most recently wrote and starred in Rattlestick’s Asuncion at the Cherry Lane Theatre, for which he was nominated for a Drama League Award.  He has appeared in the films The Social Network (Oscar nomination), Zombieland, Adventureland (BAFTA nomination), The Squid and the Whale, and Roger Dodger.  He is also a contributing writer for McSweeney’s and his humor essays have appeared in Harper’s and The New York Times.

Sequel To MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS Set To Begin Filming In 2013?

$
0
0


Rumour has it that the sequel to Marvel's The Avengers will begin shooting next year and that it's set to make Scarlett Johansson the highest paid actress in Hollywood. Read on for details.


The Sun isn't considered the most reliable source in the world, but they've posted a very interesting story in which they claim that Scarlett Johansson is in talks to return for the sequel with a massive £13 million ($20 million) offered in order for her to reprise her role as Black Widow. This would make her the highest paid actress in Hollywood.

Far more interesting however is what one of their sources reportedly tells them, specifically in regards to when the sequel will begin filming. "Scarlett is the hottest star in Hollywood and her inclusion in the sequel is a must. Producers think that as the only lead woman in the film male fans have found her a key ingredient — both for sex and story appeal. She is loved by critics too. This says, 'We value you'. Everyone is confident she’ll sign and be ready for 2013 filming." The report also mentions that Robert Downey Jr, Chris Hemsworth and Jeremy Renner will get 50% pay rises.

With Captain America 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy currently set to be released in 2014, it seems most likely that filming will begin on The Avengers 2 nearer the latter half of next year for release in 2015. Take this with a pinch of salt for the time being, and expect more Marvel movie news during next week's San Diego Comic-Con.

Scientology's expensive gifts to Tom Cruise

$

Scientology chiefs have spent a fortune on lavish gifts for Tom Cruise — and even tore down a giant eucalyptus tree to make him a pen.



The bizarre cult ripped it up from their California HQ to make presents for their golden boy and used parts of it on the interior of a customised 4X4 for him.

Other extravagant treats given to the 50-year-old Mission Impossible star include an aircraft hangar with a plush office and several personalised nickel-plated motorbikes.



He has also been given a luxury coach called Silver Screen. The actor demanded that it was fitted with a drawer to keep slippers in so people don’t walk on the carpet with dirty shoes.

The details emerged after Marty Rathbun, a former high-ranking Scientologist who left the church in 2004, leaked a memo from 2005.

It also revealed how Tom insisted his Scientology leader and best friend David Miscavige, 52 — who he calls Chairman of the Board or COB — sampled the coach first.

The memo states: “He (Cruise) requested that a space be figured out for placement of slippers in the front of Silver Screen as he doesn’t want shoes on the carpet.

“This is figured out — there is a drawer at the entrance which can be used for this.

“He also stated that no one will be allowed to enter other than his personal assistants. Mr Cruise also said that when Silver Screen arrives he isn’t going to set foot in it unless COB has been in first.”

Former Scientologist John Brousseau has told how he was paid just £30 a week to work on the gifts and customise Cruise’s favourite Ford Excursion and motorbikes while a member of the controversial church.

Tom’s actress wife Katie Holmes, 33, dumped him and filed for divorce in New York ten days ago because she didn’t want their six-year-old daughter Suri brought up surrounded by the religion.

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Run-DMC Back Together

Legendary Hip-Hop group Run-DMC is back together, sources have confirmed with AllHipHop.com today (July 6).

A source close to both camps revealed that a high-level meeting took place between Run and DMC.

While details of the reunited pair’s upcoming business deals were not revealed, plans are secure and in place for the future of Run-DMC.

“Run-DMC is definitely back together, and it’s a great day for Hip-Hop,” a source told AllHipHop.com.

Run-DMC retired almost ten years ago, in November 2002, shortly after the death of group member Jam Master Jay.


“We can’t perform anymore. Nobody wants to see Run-DMC without Jay,” Run said in 2002. “Run-DMC is officially retired. I cannot get out in front of my fans with a new DJ. Some rock bands can replace the drummer and I don’t know any other way but to be the three original members. That’s all I can say. We are retired.”

For over 10 years, the group has refused to perform together, even in April of 2009, when they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

During their hiatus, both Run and DMC stayed extremely busy.

Reverend Run hit big on the television with the hit reality series “Run’s House,” while also performing sold-out concerts with Kid Rock.

DMC won an Emmy Award for his documentary “DMC: My Adoption Journey,” while mentoring children with The Garden of Dreams Foundation.

AllHipHop.com will keep you updated on details surrounding Run-DMC as they become available.

EXCLUSIVE: Method Man Talks “Crystal Meth,” “Blackout 3″, And Possible Wu-Tang And “How High 2″ Films

Method Man has been working on a number of projects over the last few years, including his fifth solo studio album, Crystal Meth, which is currently being recorded in conjunction with his and Redman’s third entry in their Blackout series.

Method Man wants to put out as much quality music as possible.

“Me and RZA are gonna work together on my next LP, Crystal Meth,” Method Man told AllHipHop.com. “I’m looking forward to getting back in the studio with the kid, ’cause we just came off a Wu tour, and the camaraderie was still there. So I know the chemistry is gonna be there when we go in the studio.

“If there’s still fans out there listening, then I’m definitely coming with some sh*t for you,” Method Man promised of his forthcoming music.

Despite what he feels was a slept-on album – in the form of 2009′s Blackout 2 and less than stellar feedback for his, Ghostface and Raekwon‘s collaborative album Wu-Massacre – Method Man doesn’t get hung up pleasing critics or “the mainstream.”

Fans of his longtime collaborations with Redman won’t have to wait much longer for Blackout 3, which Method Man says is being recorded at the same time as his solo album and Redman’s Muddy Waters 2.

The 20-year member of Wu-Tang Clan also pondered the possibility of filming How High 2 with Redman once a “good script” is written, whether he thinks the world will ever get a Wu-Tang biopic, and why he hasn’t been taking as many film roles in recent years.

ScHoolboy Q Talks Direction of New Album

“It gotta be different,” emphasized ScHoolboy, who has also been going by the nickname Puff Daddy (...but...nvm) as of late. “It’s like Habits & Contradictions was different from Setbacks. Setbacks had a lot more content in it, a lot more meaningful topics. Habits & Contradictions was more of a funner project. Not so serious.

“The next project is just gonna be the both of them put together,” he continued. “It has to be them two combined but with a new sound. You got to make somebody cry every album, at east one song. That’s what we go by at TDE. If you ain’t making nobody cry at least one song, go back and revitalize the shit.”

The interview also had him talking about recently collaborating with 50 Cent on the G-Unit general’s Five (Murder by Numbers) project.

“He shot me the record,” ScHoolboy said, referring to 50. “I always said 50 was cool.”

Actress Holly Robinson Peete Rips 50 Cent For Insensitive Remarks About Autism

Always opinionated and never one to hold back, 50 Cent is receiving backlash for a controversial comment he made on Twitter about autism.

Earlier this week, a fan tweeted 50, “Release the album or get shot again,” in reference to the Five (Murder by Numbers) official album that he was supposed to release, but instead gave away for free and announced his official Interscope LP will be arriving this November instead.

To that, ’Fif tweeted back, “yeah I just saw your picture fool you look autistic. i don’t want no special ed kids on my time line follow some body else,” for all his 6.8 million Twitter followers and more to see.

That set off a firestorm of heated reaction, including that from actress Holly Robinson Peete, whose 13-year-old Rodney Peete is autistic.


Robinson Peete responded by writing an open letter to 50 Cent and posting it on her website, HollyRod.org.

“Do you even know what autism is?” she asks the G-Unit general in one part of the letter. “And what exactly does “autistic” look like? 1 in 88 have it. That’s 1 in 54 boys. Families suffer a social stigma you will never know. It is a financial and emotional drain for millions…”

Robinson Peete, 47, also asked 50 to “please delete” the tweets to which he obliged.

The longtime actress, who had a role in the movie 21 Jump Street back in March, closed the letter by posting a picture of her son, Rodney.

“So I guess this is what autistic looks like?” she further questioned 50. “He is in special ed. He loves rap music and is a HUGE fan of yours. He’s a tremendous kid. He has to deal with so much trying to fit in. This isn’t helping.”

Robinson Peete is one of many parents who have bombarded 50’s twitter account over his insensitive remarks.

Zaytoven Directs and Scores Movie “Birds of a Feather” Starring Gucci Mane and Others

Bay Area bred/Atlanta based producer Zaytoven has announced a new movie called Birds of a Feather.

The movie includes live footage of actual recording sessions mixed with acting by artists that Zaytoven has recorded with over the years. The movie is centered around recording sessions for Gucci Mane, Rocko, and Zaytoven.The project, titled Birds of a Feather, incorporated real life situations with improvisational acting.

“It’s just something new for me. In the music business if anyone has kept up with me and what I can do, you know from the beginning of my career, its always been me working with someone I haven’t worked with, or something new, so I wanted to jump into the movies,” Zaytoven told AllHipHop.com.

“What I did is take all the guys that I work real close with in the music industry and did a movie sort of around me and how I made it into music with a twist and with some drama and comedy. Put it all together and you got my new movie, Birds of a Feather,” he added.

The Al Nuke directed flick features a host of other rappers from Atlanta including but not limited to, Gucci Mane, Rocko, Gorilla Zoe, Shawty Lo, DJ Scream, OJ the Juiceman, Big Bank Black, YC, Yung Ralph and the Dirty Boyz.

Birds of a Feather revolves around the life of Zaytoven, who plays a character of the same name.

He stars as an aspiring music producer from the Bay Area, recently relocated to Atlanta in search of fame and fortune.
In an attempt to gain instant success, Zaytoven allows his cousin Curtis (Nuke) to manage his career, but unbeknownst to Zaytoven, Curtis puts the two men in a life-threatening bind.

“I guess the way the title came together is that me Gucci and Rocko were working on a street album called Birds of a Feather, and everyday, I recorded video of it.

“I would ask questions about why we were calling the songs what they were and why we were doing the song, and I thought that I could do a movie on the whole experience,” Zaytoven continued. “These artists were coming to the house everyday, and it just worked out with the artists, and we are all alike, and we are all different. But there is real acting in this; it’s not a documentary. There’s real comedy and drama in this movie.”

Zaytoven also took part in scoring the movie, a task he hopes to pick up in other movies going forward.

“Me scoring the movie and putting the movie together really took a lot of time, but as a matter of fact, I just started working with [Rick] Ross a few days ago. I’m just doing this movie stuff to brand myself, I want to score movies, so why not score my own movie and get my feet wet? I’m still producing, but I really want to get into film,” he said.

Birds of a Feather is expected to be released in September.

For more information on the movie, check out www.bofthemovie.com. Below is an official trailer.

Man Arrested In Connection With Trae The Truth Shooting/Murders

A 25-year-old Houston man has been arrested in connection with the shooting of Trae The Truth, that also left three people dead.
The incident unfolded on June 20 outside of the Diamond’s Gentleman’s Club in Houston, Texas.
Police accuse Feanyichi Uvukansi of opening fire on a crowd as they were leaving the adult nightclub.

Three of the victims died, while Trae The Truth and an associate Willie Watkins, sustained minor injuries.
According to a report by KHOU in Houston, Uvukansi said he was surprised to learn that he was a suspect, and told authorities that he did not bring a gun to the club.
Feanyichi Uvukansi was charged with multiple counts of capital murder and is being held without bond.

Lady Gaga Praises Kendrick Lamar on Twitter, Could a Collaboration be Next?

Kendrick Lamar’s already booming popularity might be soaring to new heights pretty soon.

That’s because, Lady Gaga shouted out the Compton rhyme slinger and former XXL Freshman on Twitter during the Fourth of July holiday on Wednesday.

“@kendricklamar What a sweetie calling me this morning to see how I’m doin,” the international superstar tweeted out to her over 26 million followers on Twitter. “See you soon. love from across the pond. #Rigamortis.”

When one of her millions of followers asked her, “Are all of your fans gonna jump on him now?” Gag rifled back a prompt answer.

“I hope so,” Gaga tweeted. “he and his lyrics are the shit.”


Rap fans already knew the latter, but given Gaga’s worldwide reach, a lot more fans know about K. Dot’s lyrical prowess now too.

It’s quite the co-sign leading up to Kendrick’s October 2 release of his highly-anticipated album, good kid, m.A.A.d city.

While K. Dot hinted at his album not including a plethora of features, landing one from Gaga after her public high praises for him could be a possibility now. Both are Interscope artists, seemingly making the possible collaboration a bit easier perhaps.

Tom Cruise’s fellow Scientology members would like to master “The Master.”
A source familiar with Paul Thomas Anderson ’s film about the founder of a Scientology-like religious movement tells us officials of the controversial church group “hit the roof” when they learned — presumably through Cruise — that the movie contains a scene which suggests the belief system was little more than a product of the leader’s fertile imagination.


In May, Anderson, who is friends with Cruise and directed him in “Magnolia,” the 1999 film that earned Cruise a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination — reportedly screened his film for the “Rock of Ages” star.
“The Master” is said to be loosely based on the life of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, and stars Philip Seymour Hoffman as Lancaster Dodd, the founder of a 1950s religious movement called The Cause.
Hubbard, a onetime writer of pulp and science fiction , founded the Church of Scientology in the ’50s.
Both the Wrap.com and Huffington Post reported other similarities between the fictional Dodd and the late Hubbard.
According to Wrap.com, Dodd, like Hubbard, creates his cultlike movement while on a boat trip.
HuffPo also noted that both Dodd and Hubbard “had wives named Mary Sue,” and said this “has caused some to wonder if the film will raise the hackles of the notoriously secretive group.”
After Cruise saw “The Master,” Wrap.com reported the actor “had issues” with parts of the highly anticipated movie .
According to our insider, one scene that didn’t sit well with Cruise takes place on a patio where Joaquin Phoenix , who plays Freddie Sutton, a troubled drifter who becomes Dodd’s right-hand disciple, watches Dodd pontificate about the religion he has created.
During the scene, the source says, another character close to the founder turns to Phoenix and says of Dodd, “You know he’s making it up as he goes along.”
Referring to the actual Church of Scientology, our source says, “Tom Cruise’s people are grumbling about this line — amongst others — but Anderson is not taking it out.”
Cruise’s spokeswoman declined to comment on this story. Scientology spokeswoman Karin Pouw responded: “No one in the church has seen the film, and we have no comment. ”
Although the Weinstein Co. will not release “The Master” until Oct. 12, Anderson’s movie has become a hot topic since Katie Holmes filed for divorce from Cruise on June 29.
The Weinstein Company declined to comment and Anderson did not respond by deadline.
The “Dawson’s Creek” actress is seeking sole custody of their daughter, Suri Cruise , amid rumors that Holmes feared the influence Scientology was having on the 6-year-old girl.

At a promotional junket for Dredd, Karl Urban looks to have let slip to SFX who Benedict Cumberbatch is playing in the forthcoming Star Trek sequel. When asked what it was like having the Sherlock actor on set, Urban said:
“He’s awesome, he’s a great addition, and I think his Gary Mitchell is going to be exemplary.”
Coming towards the end of a lengthy interview primarily concerned with his role in Dredd, it appears that Urban has accidentally revealed a much sought-after piece of information. Speculation about the principal villain has generally had Khan in the frame to take on the crew of the Enterprise second time round, but Urban seems to have unintentionally confirmed otherwise.
It’s exciting news – if it’s true. For the uninitiated, Gary Mitchell first appeared in original series episode “Where No Man Has Gone Before” as an old academy acquaintance of Kirk who ends up transformed into a wrathful God-like antagonist after encountering the galactic barrier.
Of course, there’s always the chance that this is an enormous red herring planted by the wily Urban on an unsuspecting SF journo. Gary Mitchell has already appeared in this iteration of the Trek universe courtesy of issue #2 of IDW’s Star Trek comic, and perhaps more importantly has been explicitly denied any part in Trek 2 by co-writer and producer Roberto Orci in a recent interview.
Then again, this wouldn’t be the first time Orci has been involved in Hollywood sleight of hand. He also worked on Tranformers: Revenge Of The Fallen, where Michael Bay denied Megatron would be appearing only for – surprise! – Megatron to play a key role in the film. Regardless, it’s an intriguing development for Trek fans, and one that is no doubt going be the cause of some furious debate.
Urban can be seen taking up the badge of 2000AD’s dreaded future lawman in the forthcoming Dredd, which is released via Lionsgate on 7 September.
Star Trek 2 is due for release 17 May 2013.

A day later we were on the phone and a week later we're in pre-production! We'll be shooting at the end of July, Ill be editing in August, and in September it's going to play in a show in NYC.

Despite the fact Frank's beautiful coming out letter stated that, his former male lover was also 19 when they first met, pundits maintained it was a cover up to protect his ex's identity. The link between Frank and Kanye was made because he is officially known as one of Kanye's protege's, and the link between Frank and Pharell is due to their close working relationship and the fact that Frank views him as an idol. In addition to this, Kanye and Pharrell have for years been dogged by rumours and so called 'eye witness reports' that they are in fact men who love men.

All this incessant speculating and rumour spreading aside, there were also some heated debates about whether Frank is gay or bisexual? It turns out that the answer depends on who you ask. Most gay men who were asked about this question felt that a bisexual man is just someone who hasn't come all the way out yet. This opinion was shared by people who had very close relationships with gay men, or whose own relationships ended when they found out their boyfriend or husband was in love with another man.

In an interview that reporters recently dug up of Kanye West (below), he discusses the issue of gay vs bisexual. At the 2:10 mark he says; "There's no such thing as a bisexual guy, if a guy is bisexual, that makes him gay. Don't try to re-term it or something like that."


He also tries quite hard to explain all the reasons why he is a heterosexual man. (There is also some pretty funny stuff in there about bloggers which gave me a good laugh, but that's a topic for another post).

On the other hand people who had few very close relationships with gay people, or have never experienced what it's like to find out that your man is with another man, felt that it is possible for a man to be bisexual. The respondents age also factored into their opinion on this topic. Those who were 25 or younger were more likely to say that Frank is bisexual, while those who are 25 and above would say he is a gay man.

So what does it really matter if a person labels themselves gay or bisexual? It doesn't matter to me, I say call yourself whatever you feel like. I remember one of my fave old school crooners used to call himself trisexual, as in, he would try anything once. It does however matter to certain openly gay men who have been on the battle grounds of the gay rights movement for a long time, they feel like the word bisexual is all just semantics. They feel like it's a front for certain men who like men, to mitigate some of the consequences of being gay in this homophobic world. They feel like it's a way for them to somehow set themselves a part as better then the full blown gay man, it's like playing the fence.

Most people would say it's all just labels at the end of the day, all that matters is your opinion of yourself. I agree with you to a certain extent, but when those labels start to affect your civil liberties it's more than just a few letters on a name badge. If it affects your right to marriage, employment, safety and so forth; wouldn't you agree that it's important to at least write the correct words on the label?

I just needed to wash away the bad mental image brought by the last Cillian post. Cillian Murphy will never touch 50 Shades with a 100-foot sterilized pole.

2 BROKE GIRLS RERUNS TO AIR ON TBS IN 2015



The cable channel TBS has agreed to acquire reruns of the CBS comedy "Two Broke Girls," which was the most-watched new comedy series of the 2011-12 season, at a price tag industry insiders said is between $1.5 million and $1.7 million per episode — believed to be the most paid ever for reruns of a comedy by a cable network.

"Two Broke Girls," about two Brooklyn diner waitresses struggling to save money to open a cupcake shop, is known for its raunchy humor and sexual innuendo. It was a hit for CBS in its first season. Despite the early success of "Two Broke Girls," it is unusual for reruns of a show to be sold after only one season on the air. If the comedy starring Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs endures a sophomore slump, TBS could end up with buyer’s regret. Reruns of "Two Broke Girls" will appear on TBS starting in 2015.

MIKE & MOLLY RERUNS TO AIR ON FX IN 2014



FX announced Tuesday that it will host exclusive syndication of the Mark Roberts-created sitcom starting in September 2014. The show went for a $750,000 an episode, far less than Warner Bros.' other show that recently sold to TBS, 2 Broke Girls, which went for a record-breaking $1.7 million per episode. Also went for far less than Chuck Lorre's other two record-breaking syndication hits, Men and The Big Bang Theory. Mike & Molly, which was the most-watched new series of the 2010-11 season, joins fellow CBS comedies How I Met Your Mother and Two and a Half Men in FX's syndication portfolio.

Octomum moving to Oz

Nadya Suleman – aka ‘Octomum’ – is looking at moving to Australia, her dad has told Woman’s Day.

Suleman first created controversy when she gave birth to eight babies conceived through IVF in 2009. At the time, she was already a mum of six and a single mum.

Australians are very laid back … they’re very friendly and I think our family would fit in nicely there


Since the birth of the octuplets Suleman has reportedly been under great financial strain. Despite once stating she’d never ask for government assistance, she recently revealed she’s given $2000 in welfare a month.

The mum of 14 has also appeared in a naked photoshoot for Closer magazine, which she says she was paid $8000 for, and a porn video entitled Octomom: Home Alone.

Now, her father has told Woman’s Day that she’s ready for a move to Australia.

“People in America hate my daughter and that breaks my heart, so I think the only solution is for us to all move away,”
said 69-year-old Ed Suleman. “And I can’t think of a better place for us to go than Australia, as living in California has become toxic for Nadya. She’s constantly being attacked by paparazzi and judged by her peers for going on government funding.

“Australians are very laid back … they’re very friendly and I think our family would fit in nicely there.”

The Sulemans already have family in Australia, as Nadya’s uncle reportedly lives in Sydney.

“He said whenever we’re ready to move he will help us get settled in,” reveals Ed.

Somehow I doubt the Australian government wants that tax burden.

Is “Call Me Maybe” Turning Our Daughters Into Sluts For Satan?

Carly Rae Jepsen is a powder keg of slutty energy. The whorish singer has captured radio waves with her secular summer jam, “Call Me Maybe” — a tour-de-force of sexual groveling featuring depraved lyrics condoning sinful group sex and illicit drug use.


The song has become a mantra for secular teenagers around the country, dominating the charts, as well as Facebook statuses and Tumbler accounts. Teenage girls have adopted the song lyrics into some twisted philosophy that excuses their shameful sexual behavior, including but not limited to — garage sex, random sex, pre-marital sex, unsafe sex, hot sex, and grass sex.




(Carly Rae eyeing up another man, possibly Mexican due to his lawn mowing, to rape and have unclean sex with.)



Teen pregnancies have increased 3000% since the songs release. More and more Christian girls are skipping Sunday School in order to hang out with garage band musicians and lay in AND smoke grass while having their birthing canals explored by an unknown teen boy’s fingers and/or penis. The sad fact is if your daughter listens to this song SHE WILL BE A SLUT, and will likely give birth to a drug-addicted ethnic child. This is encouraged in the song’s lyrics –

“I’d trade my soul for a wish,
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn’t looking for this,
But now you’re in my way”


The first line expresses Carly’s desire to trade her beautiful God-created body to Satan for lusty carnal desires of the flesh, in order to have her vagina infiltrated by random men. The second line states her willingness to offer sexual services such as “blowjibbers” for monetary compensation. The third and fourth lines attempt to claim that Carly isn’t usually this slutty, but since the man is in front of her, she might as well have unprotected gang-sex with him and his friends.


Carly Rae wants our daughters to give out their telephone numbers to strange men. What good could come of this? Mindless sex? AIDS? Perhaps pregnancy? Carly Rae should consider changing her name to Carly Rape, because that is what she is blatantly promoting.


So how can we curb this slutty songstresses message? Do we enact female circumcision like the savages of Africa, because while cruel, it is a viable way of curbing sluttiness. Do we lock up our teen girls  and force them to date and reproduce with men of our choosing? Do we cancel our Earthlink internet service so Youtube is not accessible?


It’s sad that songs by Toby Mac and Michael W. Smith are banned from the airwaves in lieu of 4 minute advertisements for slut sex. Our teenage daughters do not need to be encouraged to frolic in the grass with ethnic tattooed men, when they could be trying on full-length skirts and highlighting interesting Bible passages. Carly Rae wants our daughters to have sex with unclean men, and sex before marriage is a sin. Why can’t we celebrate the lyrical depth of the Newsboys or DC Talk instead of turning a blind eye to harlots and whorishness?


Carly Rae is training a generation of sluts. These sluts are our daughters, and they are being encouraged to be loose and easy in order to be accepted by the neighborhood garage band — a band full of rag-tag skateboarders and drug using vagabonds in “dago” tees. Don’t let your daughter be “fingerbanged” by a dark-skinned man on a moonbounce, or in a meadow of Kentucky bluegrass. Ban this song from her life. Destroy all of your radios, Youtube accesors and Pandora’s box music services. Ban her from using the Spotify service as well.


Here is a safe alternative to the chorus of this song, in order to make it slightly more appropriate for your family.


Hey, I just met you…and this seems crazy…but I love Jesus, because He saved me.
