Steve-O Says Prince Was a “Dick” to Him When They Met
The stars of Jackass surely know that their gnarly antics aren’t for everybody, but Steve-O had to learn the hard way that Prince especially wasn’t a fan. On a recent episode of his podcast Steve-O’s Wild Ride!, the stuntman/comedian remembered that Prince was “a dick” and “condescending” to him when the pair first met. While Steve-O is now an easily-recognizable celebrity in his own right, he implied that his encounter with Prince went down in the early 2000s, before Jackass had become a full-blown phenomenon. On the podcast, Steve-O recalled a go-to party trick he’d often use during this era to impress A-listers, which involved balancing a cup on his head, then drinking the liquid inside without using his hands. “I met Prince one time,” Steve-O told the episode’s guest, Cheech ...

Bill Murray Addresses Allegations of Inappropriate Behavior: “The World is Different Than It Was When I Was a Little Kid”
Production on Aziz Ansari’s directorial debut, Being Mortal, has been suspended after a complaint was made against Bill Murray for inappropriate behavior. Searchlight Pictures announced the decision last week, and Murray himself addressed the complaint during an interview with CNBC on Saturday. “I had a difference of opinion with a woman I’m working with. I did something I thought was funny, and it wasn’t taken that way,” Murray explained. “The company, the movie studio, wanted to do the right thing, so they wanted to check it all out, investigate it. and so they stopped the production.” “But as of now, we’re talking and we’re trying to make peace with each other,” Murray continued. “I think that’s where the real issue is, between our peace. We’re both professionals. We like each other’s w...

HipHopWired Featured Video It’s been a week since Pusha T hit the block with that fish scale dubbed It’s Almost Dry, and with heads noddin’ to the production composed by Kanye West and The Neptunes, it’s only right that most if not all the album cuts with the clip treatment. In his latest visuals to “Call My Bluff,” King Push casually breaks bread with what seems to be a “connected” family who have the kind of members that have no problem with having the competition fitted for cement boots and have them sleeping with the fishes. Back in Atlanta, Future returns to the game with his latest LP, I Never Liked You and for his visuals to “Keep It Burnin,” the “greatest rapper alive” links up with Kanye West to get their toxic masculinity on out in the middle of nowhere.
