Grace Jones and Lady Gaga  

Grace Jones Punishes Lady Gaga – I’m very pleased about this as I am finding Lady Gaga’s whole vibe somewhat tiresome. In a wonderful new report, Pop icon Grace Jones (62 next month!) has sparked a row with Lady Gaga after accusing the Poker Face singer of copying her legendary style. Jones claims to have snubbed the chance to collaborate with the chart-topping star because she lacks originality. Nailed! [nypost]

Cape Town Comes Sixth On AskMen.Com – Our favourite city, Cape Town, has come in at sixth place in a recent AskMen.com ranking of the world’s best cities to live in. Obviously Caprice was mentioned in the “night on the town’ section. Rocking the Daisies also cracked it, as well as Kirstenbosch and my six pack. Just kidding… about Kirstenbosch. [askmen]

Google Chrome Ditches https:// – When you see some text prefixed by “https://” you automatically know that what follows is a web address, as defined by the Hypertext Transfer Protocol. The question is — since most web addresses are easily recognizable anyway — do you really need it?The developers of Google Chrome don’t think you do, so they simply chose to hide it in a developer version of Chrome.

Australian Cookbook Suggests “Black People” As An Ingredient – An Australian publisher has had to pulp and reprint a cookbook after one recipe listed “salt and freshly ground black people” instead of black pepper. Penguin Group Australia had to reprint 7,000 copies of Pasta Bible last week. The reprint cost A$20,000 (R130,000), but stock in bookshops will not be recalled as it is “extremely hard” to do so, Penguin said. [bbc]

Suri Cruise Turns Four! – Jerry McGuire and Joey Potter’s daughter, Suri Cruise, turned four on Sunday. It’s important that you know this. But I think it’s even more important to deliver this adorable little pic to all the laydezz out there who need some cute in their lives. “Oh my God! She has her mother’s mouth!!’ etc. etc. etc. Will your child be as cute? IS your child as cute? I doubt it. [tmz]

Underbelly Gangland Boss Beaten To Death – Those of you who are fortunate enough to have watched Underbelly, the TV show depicting the true story of Melbourne crime families and their phenomenal killing spree that went on for years, will be interested to note that Carl Williams has been killed. The real Carl Williams – not the actor. The one with the nickname “FatBoy” – that’s the one! [guardian]

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 – Joining the launch of the very popular Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Mercedes-Benz have unveiled the SLS AMG GT3.

Rise Of The Fembots – Fembot, a species of walking, talking Barbie dolls, concentrated mainly in Los Angeles and New York, that appears increasingly likely to take over the world.

Despite her lack of income, she hasn’t cut back on her spending and is now over half a million dollars in debt. [radar]

The Queer Reporter: Very Queer, Very Funny – I don’t know what it is about this guy, but he just gets me every time. “The almost daily obtuse utterances by some members of South Africa’s ruling political party and its auxiliaries provide a nearly limitless resource for comic satire. I’m sure we’ve all felt the urge to send a few container loads of Musa Cavendishii down to Luthuli house, this is an alternative.” [thequeerreporter]
