Jackson’s last gift to fans… and taxpayers.

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On July - 9 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

YSP readers know that I absolutely hammer unscrupulous lawmakers, who liberally spend your money. The act in which they partake can only be called theft. They steal what you and countless others have worked so hard to earn. Though my focus is mostly on politicians, no one is immune to being called-out. My attention has now turned to a private company called AEG Live. Sound familiar? Well, it should. Their name has been all over the news for a few days now. AEG Live is the company that owns the Staples... more

Al Sharpton mourns Jackson’s death, gets his grind on.

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On July - 1 - 20097 COMMENTS

Although he’s never been elected to any office (not for lack of trying), Al Sharpton remains a permanent fixture in politics. He just never seems to go away. He continues to speak out on countless issues. And while no one seems to be listening, every network is more than willing to put him on TV. Why not, right? He’s the Don King of politics. Is it just me, or do they look alike? All he does is create controversy by crying racism over everything, so he can reap the benefits of being... more

D-Bag of the Week: Harvey Levin of TMZ

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On July - 1 - 20092 COMMENTS

It’s that time again… time for the “D-Bag of the Week” award. I’ve patiently sat back and observed, waiting for someone to emerge as the biggest d-bag of the week. I honestly thought about awarding Michael Jackson, because he has completely invaded all forms of media. It’s haunting, literally. I mean, God rest his soul but shit Michael! Who knew the world would mourn the death of a pedophile, by letting him molest the hell out of my TV and computer?! My Twitter... more

Madoff sentenced to 150 years in the slammer.

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On June - 29 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

Bernie Madoff, the man who managed to cover-up a $65 billion-dollar Ponzi scheme for years, finally faced the music today. Despite his attorney’s request for a 12 year sentence (HA HA HA!), he was sentenced to 150 years in a Manhattan courtroom by U.S. District Judge, Denny Chin. Chin gave Madoff the maximum sentence for his crime, as he should have. Madoff swindled entire fortunes out of celebrities, institutional investors, and even hard-working average Joes. The worst part is, we will not... more

Farrah Forgotten?

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On June - 26 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

Is it just me, or did the media forget that Farrah Fawcett died yesterday too? Ever since the news of Jacko’s death, poor Farrah has been relegated the shadows. The media wasn’t even able to devote one full day to mourning. Not that I realistically expected them to hold off on talking about Jackson’s death, but they could have at least split the airtime a little better. I know that Jacko is good for ratings but what’s right, is right. Poor Farrah. She was such a beautiful... more

The kids are free!

Michael Jackson shocked the world with his death yesterday afternoon. By all indications, there was no sign that he was in bad health. Well, physically anyway. He was actually quite active, in preparing for a tour across Europe and Asia. He even rehearsed at the Staples Center, the night before his death! Go figure huh? Silly foreigners. At age 50, after all his psychotic behavior, the rest of the world can’t get enough of him. People still love and respect him in America, obviously. But his... more

Heidi-crite

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On June - 24 - 20091 COMMENT

According to TMZ, Heidi Montag has already completed her Playboy shoot, for the September issue of the magazine. Heidi has maintained that her spread will be “very classy,” ever since the rumors began. However, it leaves me wondering: How classy can millions of men, jerking-off to pictures of you, ever really be? I mean, if that’s the standard, don’t look down your nose at Jenna Jameson, Heidi. Really, what’s the difference? Heidi has already answered this question... more

D-Bag of the Week: Perez Hilton

Posted by Joe Templeton, YSP Executive Editor On June - 23 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

This week, the always annoying Perez Hilton, cried on his video blog about being assaulted by The Black Eyed Peas’ manager, Polo Molina. The video was posted in response to another video posted on Will.i.am’s blog, detailing his account of what happened. Will.i.am’s video isn’t nearly as entertaining… probably because he’s coherent and completely rational about the incident. Perez’s video on the other hand, is very funny. Although, it is quite long (11 minutes... more
