Good one leakers, you done pissed off Kanye

So, this makes sense: that weird, hulking, poorly animated and excessively schlonged video to Kanye’s ‘Black Skinhead’ that made the ‘net rounds yesterday isn’t the final version, according to Kanye. “The final version will be ready in the next week,” he explained in a series of tweets overnight, highlighting his disappointment at the leak with this final message:

Call your mums, Dumb & Dumber To is really happening

While on Jimmy Fallon’s show last night to promote The Newsroom, blonde guy Jeff Daniels confirmed the news that every goofy nincompoop has been silently awaiting for almost 20 years now (or something): he’ll be re-teaming with Jim Carrey and The Farrelly Bros for a sequel to 1994’s comedy smash, Dumb & Dumber. “I’ve seen the script,” said Daniels. “It’s hysterical. We’re middle-aged, and we’re still that stupid.”

Good news, I guess, but Jimmy Fallon seems WAY too excited about this:

Game Of Thrones creator George R.R. Martin posted an image of the Iron Throne he sees in his mind

And it’s f**kin’ frightening! Writing on his LiveJournal overnight, Martin outlined his reservations over HBO’s version, before highlighting artist Marc Simonetti’s “ugly, asymmetric” vision.

Throne

“The HBO throne has become iconic… And yet, and yet… it’s still not right. It’s not the Iron Throne I see when I’m working on THE WINDS OF WINTER. It’s not the Iron Throne I want my readers to see… Marc has come closer here to capturing the Iron Throne as I picture it than any other artist… It’s a throne made by blacksmiths hammering together half-melted, broken, twisted swords, wrenched from the hands of dead men or yielded up by defeated foes… a symbol of conquest… And there are thousands of swords in it, not just a few. This Iron Throne is scary. And not at all a comfortable seat, just as Aegon intended.”

Cool story, old man.

Amanda Bynes got herself a court-friendly makeover

The 27-year-old actress (with issues) had to appear in court overnight over that whole throwing-a-bong-off-a-balcony thing from last month. She wore a blue wig. I like it; kinda looks like toothpaste. Case dismissed!
