THE BUMRUSH

Khloe Kardashian masks have become and acceptable form of taunting at NBA playoff games. You know, because her husband is Laker Lamar Odom, who is like the 5th best player on the team. And seeing thousands of people wear a mask of your wife in the stands is supposed to make you feel… weird? Creeped out? Sad? Sorry for all the fans who subjected themselves to this? Cause that’s the vibe I’m getting.

Abercrombie & Fitch turns library into a store for itself. Seriously.

It looked a little funny to see a bunch of teenage girls walk into a library together, so I investigated further. And as you can see, I took this picture of an actual Abercrombie & Fitch, where the stone library sign was still visible above the entrance. Yes, in the future, we won't be able to read, but we'll all look damn sexy.

It was Walt Disney Co.'s biggest March opening ever. It was also the largest-ever debut for the 53-year-old Travolta

Chimps begin to use spears to hunt for food. I don't really know what a bush baby is, but based on the name alone, I can't imagine why anybody or anything would want to hurt one of them. Kind of like a joey or a jabberwocky, if you know what I mean. And yet:

Chimpanzees have been seen using spears to hunt bush babies, U.S. researchers said on Thursday in a study that demonstrates a whole new level of tool use and planning by our closest living relatives.

Meanwhile in the world of homo sapiens, the big news is that Victoria Beckham will likely be starring in her own reality show on NBC.

Chimps 1, Humans 0.

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?
