Launched in October 2005, Jon Chattman's thecheappop.com prides itself on having pop culture A.D.D., featuring lowkey and non-offensive celebrity interviews (up-and-comers, forgotten favorites, and established hot shots), humor stories, quirky short films, Jon’s dad Gary on the Broadway beat, "16 Minutes," a celebrity-styled Q with a non-celebrity, and tastefully candid celebrity photos (with nonsensical comments to boot). Fans of the site also know we have an undying love of mustaches. We were the first site to embrace the 'stache comeback although we're never given credit for it. That's cool. Keep rocking those 'staches, fellas. Now available ...

Published 5/18/2008 by Scooter McGavin (noreply@blogger.com) at Scooter McGavin's 9th Green
There have been a couple of videos that have caught my eye lately so I though I’d give them some love since the death of Musical Television left a void for a forum on the art form so here they are courtesy of YouTube. I advise you to watch them before you read my reviews if you don’t want me to spoil things. If you are interested in buying the video through iTunes, click the title link (where available, if not the link goes to YouTube where you can watch the video in full screen). If you are interested in buying the song, look for a link in the analysis. Violet Hill - ...

Most of the clips have been spliced and looped to make the politicians look ridiculous dancing, singing, playing instruments, etc. Intercut are scenes of mass destruction (rockets, explosions, etc.) and ...

This new ultimatum was inspired by the label's predicted inability to make $292 million by June. What do the suits ...
