THE BUMRUSH

La Toya Jackson will be in a reality television show called 'Armed And Famous'.

From the Associated Press via The ShowBuzz:

Erik Estrada and other lesser celebrities have been sworn in as reserve officers of the city police department here, allowing them to carry badges and guns as part of a reality television series.

Of course, that begs the question. Is it possible to be a "lesser celebrity" than Erik Estrada? Also, did he qualify for the show due to his "experience"? Will he ride around on a motorcycle during the show? And finally, is it humane to give La Toya Jackson a gun?

This is the highest rated video OF ALL TIME on YouTube?




That was certainly a letdown. I expected something a little funnier, a video that would make me laugh, maybe chuckle, or at least crack a smile.

Personally, I don't think it gets much better than the "Groin of Steel". You get my vote, insane monk...

Unlike our first recipient of the month, I have always enjoyed Jennifer Connelly's... ahem... body of work.


And some of our thoughts on Jennifer Connelly?
Best Movie: (Tie) Labyrinth & Dark City
Worst Movie: A little piece of garbage known as the Hulk
Completely Random Internet Fact: She speaks fluent Italian and French and is interested in Quantum Physics. Which would make her smarter than the 3 of us combined, no doubt.
NSFW sites that I would absolutely not advise you to go to. They would be here and here in case you missed it.
Best fantasy image of Jennifer Connelly that 9 out of 10 men would recommended actually happening: Wonder Woman

If I'm ever asked to contribute an item into a time capsule in order to succinctly describe the world that I lived in – it will be the following picture:

I was HE-UGE fan of Jean Claude Van Damme back in the day. In my formative years, my best friend had a big screen TV and was also within a bike ride of the video store. And since Van Damme could pump out the movies even before his direct to video glory days, a little Van Damme action was part of my Saturday night so many times.

So, I was pretty damn disappointed when I read this on Cinema Blend:

Four months ago we reported on a “sister’s cousin’s uncle” type rumor about Jean-Claude Van Damme joining the cast of Rush Hour 3 as the villain. Today’s Empire online reports that the rumor not only isn’t true, but was made up by Van Damme himself. The former action hero told the press, "it was just a comment, a joke, that I made during an interview. I said, ‘We’ve got Jackie, we’ve got Chris Tucker — what about me, making it a trio?’”

Say it ain’t so, Jean Claude? I would have loved to see him in Rush Hour 3. I might have actually seen it. That’s how psyched I was. My day perked up just a little bit when I came across this piece of news, though.

Exclusive: Capcom Talks New Street Fighter Movie

Capcom has unveiled a partnership with Hyde Park Entertainment on a new Street Fighter film franchise that will tie into games, a potential TV series and more. The movie will focus on the character Chun Li. Capcom marketing guru Charles Bellfield sheds some light on this project. After getting into the movie business in 1994 with Street Fighter: The Movie, a $35 million production starring Jean Claude Van Damme and Raul Julia that was completely funded by Capcom, the Japanese game publisher exited the movie industry. Street Fighter earned only $33 million in the U.S., although it did go on to gross another $66 million overseas. The film was panned by film critics and gamers alike.

My only wish is that Van Damme and the corpse of Raul Julia make a return for the remake.

The Pimp Daddy posted a horrifying link to the Hoff's new music video. I cannot compete with the insanity of that thing (I mean, jump in my car?), but I can post another almost as insane Hasselhoff music video. What the hell is going on in his head? "Give me some more fucking green screen time. I said more green screen!"

Full disclosure: I came across this beauty of a video while searching for that bitchslap picture in the previous post. The video perfectly defines the essence of Connery, and of course, had to be posted here. Nothing describe it better than its youtube title:

It's a nice gift, but I think I'm going to hold out for the next model, which hopefully includes a sweet bitchslap feature.

Whether you're a football fan or not, this will make you laugh. Someone took what must have been a lot of time to edit a bunch of Tom Brady pictures together and sing a modified version of Kenny Roger's Lady to it. I applaud the effort involved in this undertaking, BradyFan83.

A tribute to the hunkiest quarterback in the league!

Usually, us Bumrushers are more interested in celebrities making asses out of themselves. But, occasionally, the common man rises to the occasion and makes an absolute fool out of himself and his company. Like, the guy in this video:

So proud of itself for successfully merging with MBNA, Bank of America takes one of the most beautiful U2 songs and changes the lyrics so it's about . . . credit cards. And it's maybe meant to be a joke. But the singer takes himself so seriously, that it's not a joke.
