When I say Nikki Yanofsky, you are probably saying “who dat?” Well don’t feel bad if the name doesn’t ring a bell. This chick is just starting to make a name for herself and now that you’ve heard it, you may now never forget it. Yanofsky is the young but mature gal who belted out the Canadian national anthem at the Olympic opening ceremonies. Yep, that was her. Read more about this young superstar and her already chart-topping success after the jump.

Josh Groban Gets Scared Too.

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

The hot-flashin’ grannies and sophisticated beotches will appreciate this Grobanized news. This just in!!! Josh Groban gets scurred just like us…despite having performed in front of sold-out stadiums and even the Olympics, the Inaugural Ball was no exception to stirring up the butterflies in his tummy…yep, before his performance for the President, Joshy had the shakes, the quakes and the bouncing curls to prove it.

“I was very nervous…Healthy nerves though. I try not to get terrified. I think we all wanted to do our best and take a breath and realize that nobody has a harder job than he does right now.”

Bouncy Curls was even more relieved to know that the President gave him the thumbs up.

“He said, ‘great job, great voice and thanks for being here. And I just told him that it was an honor to sing for him and I was available for anything he ever needed, just to let me know.” Everyone now…”awwwwwww”.

And don’t you Grobanites think for a moment that Josh’s new album won’t consist of any patriotic dittys.

“I wouldn’t put it past me to do it. I think a lot of us are experiencing what’s going on in our country right now and to be young and to be in this historic moment, it’s hard not to sit down at the piano with pencil and paper and jot a few things down.”

So there you have it!

China Loves Michael Phelps.

Monday, January 5th, 2009

And quite frankly…so do we…especially with that fuzzy wuzzy bear-ness that Michael Phelps is sporting! Yummers.

Ok, so here’s the lowdown…

First the Speedo-wearing hottie won EIGHT gold medals in this past summer Olympics. And of course, you KNEW those endorsement deals were coming…and they did. And, well…they KEEP coming. Lucky for Michael, China’s love for the skinny swimmer is endless as they have just thrown a big fat cool million his way.

Michael, do you love Mazda? Well, now you do! As a spokesman for Mazda in China, Phelps is making history by receiving the largest single sponsorship for a Western celebrity in Chinese history.

And with that…Phelps is about to head back to Beijing for the first time since the summer Olympic Games.

Dynamic Marketing Group’s DMG Entertainment unit said in a statement that Phelps will endorse the Mazda 6 car in TV and print ads and public appearances.

“The people of China have been very supportive of me and my efforts to help promote swimming,” Phelps said. “I am excited to begin 2009 with my first return trip to Beijing since the Games.”

Big congrats to Mister Money Bags!

After the jump, you can view several more fuzz-licious pics of Phelps-sie in Miami getting his pimp on.

People magazine has selected Hugh Jackman as the hottest of all the hottest in the whole wide world. What an honor!

Hugh Jackman can finally say that he is sexier than Brad Pitt…the guido mustache was NOT a good idea, Brad. Better luck next year in regaining your crown!

Other sexy hunks that made the cut include: Current 007 Daniel Craig, “Mad Men” lead Jon Hamm, buff bodied “Lipstick Jungle” star Robert Buckley, HSM cutie Zac Efron, “Dirty Sexy Money” rival Blair Underwood, “Gossip Girl’s” resident bad boy Ed Westwick, Olympic champ Michael Phelps, “Raising the Bar” legal eagle Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Oscar-winner Javier Bardem, ‘Twilight’ vamp Robert Pattinson, “Fringe” star Joshua Jackson and soccer superstar David Beckham.

I must say that is all sorts of hotness in ONE magazine. You can pick up the sexy magazine when it hits newsstands on Friday!

Amanda Beard Thinks Her Shiz Doesn’t Stink.

Michael Phelps may be the golden boy of the Olympics, winning a record 8 gold medals and attracting the ladies like flies on poop, but not ALL the ladies. (And, I admit he is no Brad Pitt, but the guy won 8 gold medals. That is attractive in itself! Oh, and the Speedo looks pretty nice too, I might add.)

Amanda Beard, a fellow American swimmer, has been linked to Michael Phelps and girlfriend was quick to deny AND stick her foot in her mouth times ten. Talk about making oneself look like a total beotch!

According to MSNBC, rumors of romance between the athletes began to circulate earlier this week, and while the record-breaker simply denied them, Amanda took to the airwaves on the “Johnjay and Rich in the Morning” radio show and made it clear that she found idea of dating the golden boy repulsive.

When asked if she ever kissed Michael, Amanda answered, “Ew, no!” Held hands? “Ew, no! Not even that.” Even the mere suggestion that Michael might be attracted to her inspired an “ew-that’s-so-nasty” response.

Beard goes on to add that she doesn’t find Michael attractive and that she goes for “different looking” guys, saying that “I have really good taste.”

Ok. Apparently someone is a tad vain and a bit of a snob. A simple “no” would have been enough. Do I sense a bit of jealousy in Ms. Beard’s tone?

Hey Amanda, Phelps won EIGHT gold medals. Count ‘em…EIGHT! Boo YAH!

Michael Phelps Is The Olympics.

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

There is no doubt about it. Michael Phelps IS the highlight of this year’s Olympics. In fact, let me rephrase that…Michael Phelps is the mudder-fockin’ Olympics.

Last night, Phelps scored his EIGHTH Gold medal in the 4×100 medley relay. The US men’s 4×100-meter medley relay team, again on the strength of an anchor leg swim by Jason Lezak, broke a world record with a time of 3:29.34. That was soooo exciting to watch. If you missed it…well, you missed out on history, bitches.

Michael Phelps now has 16 total Olympic medals in his lifetime, 14 of them gold (a world record). On top of that, Michael broke Mark Spitz’s record for winning the most golds won by a single athlete at a single Olympics.

Umm…hello! Michael Phelps is the fox that rocks. Easy on the eyes too, I might add.
