Another Carnival Game That Smashes Barack Obama

VIA GAWKER

What’s going on here, another carnival game designed to attack Barack Obama, this time in Seaside Heights, NJ, a game on the Jersey Shore boardwalk! Take a look as fans take shots at taking Obama’s head off. You can even see fans saying “I want to hit Obama”

Video-maker Chris Barrett heard about the Pennsylvania fair story and recalled seeing a similar attraction in Seaside Heights, New Jersey — site of the beloved Jersey Shore program! He went back this weekend, and it’s still there.

Look at these fellows try to smash an Obama prop by chucking balls at him! “f*ck you Obama!” a potential future Jersey Shore star says. You’d think they would go for the evil Red Sox player or Osama bin Laden on either side of Obama, but no. Perhaps that would be too obvious?

*New Video* Pink – “Please Don’t Leave Me”

Pink continues to prove that even if she isn’t the most famous pop star recording music today, she’s still one of the best. Her hardcore fans appreciate moments like this latest video for, “Please Don’t Leave Me (Funhouse Summer Carnival Tour Version)”, the latest hit single from her Funhouse album.

“Please Don’t Leave Me” tells the story of a giant woman, who is a part of the circus and is looking for a suitor. Shot in black and white, using lo-fi cameras, “Please Don’t Leave Me”‘s video is as endearing as the melancholy rock song itself. For us, this is the way we like to see Pink: Having fun and being imaginative. Don’t get us wrong, her angry side is also fun to watch, but when she calms down like this, Pink can do no wrong.

Oh and be sure to check out who her final suitor is, all the real Pink fans should know the face.

Rumor: Christina Aguilera Planning Live Nation Deal?

Word is Christina Aguilera may be packing up from her longtime RCA deal and sailing ship to Live Nation.

According to an insider, the beef with Christina and her record label over the low sales of her latest outing “Bionic,” has pushed her to look at other options.

The Live Nation rumored deal is reportedly being orchestrated by her Manager Irving Azoff, who is also the Chairman of Live Nation.

We are unclear of any numbers currently but the deal is said to be worth millions, which would see Live Nation profiting from Aguilera’s music, tour and endorsements.

If this is true, Aguilera would join the ranks of Jay-Z, Madonna and U2, who all have hefty deals with Live Nation.

What ya’ll think?

8 Yr Old Kieron Williamson Made $235K Painting

Kieron Williamson a playful looking 8 year old with sandy blond hair looks quite regular for being an artistic genius who just sold a painting dubbed “Mini Monet” for $235,804 at Picturecraft Gallery in Holt, UK.  The last notable paint virtuoso was Picasso, and a regular boy who can be compared to the likes of a master is promising and many galleries will be eyeing Kieron for first dibs on his original works.  His technique is mature which allows him to conduct his vision more liberating through his impeccable execution.

When Kieron is not brushing canvas with paint, he is a typical boy that enjoys running around and playing soccer or playing computer games.  One family vacation in 2008 to Devon and Cornwall, his childlike curiosity took a monumental turn when he asked his parents for some paper so he can draw the landscape that he was seeing.  What came out of it was a typical drawing from a pint-sized 5 year old, but as he kept drawing his skills improved immensely leading to art classes where he truly flourished in his element.

Kieron’s work is taken off gallery walls as fast as 15 minutes into a show, and there is a 2,000 people waiting list for buyers from all over the world who want a taste of his landscape paintings.
