I was hoping to make it through my life without having to acknowledge the existence of Justin Bieber, and then he goes and does something like this. Bieber!!!
The October/November issue of Complex magazine has a cover story on the young singer featuring photos of The Bieb doing his best Houdini. The interview, which you can read HERE, discusses his "struggle to keep his head above water" and deal with traumas such as the removal of his wisdom teeth.
For completists only.

What's that sound? Oh, it's HOUDINI turning over in his grave!
ReplyDeleteGreat imagery, sadly it was wasted on Bieber
You know, I rarely comment on your postings (because I nearly always agree and love what you do) but I could not sit back on this one. Way too much room for laughter. "I think they should just leave the chains on him"
ReplyDeleteYou're the magazine man, Arthur. Gonna get this one? :)
DeleteTrying to channel the spirit of HH. Adrian Brody couldn't do, what chance does he have? In the interview with Complex, he said:
ReplyDelete"You don't need to go to church to be a Christian. If you go to Taco Bell, that doesn't make you a taco."
Right.
"You don't need to go to church to be a Christian. If you go to Taco Bell, that doesn't make you a taco."
DeleteThat's actually a pretty decent joke. Thought it was gonna finish with "...doesn't make you Mexican," but "...doesn't make you a taco" is just ridiculous. I chuckled.
Would have been funnier with chalupa. Chalupa is just a funny sounding word.
"You don't need to go to church to be a Christian. If you go to Taco Bell, that doesn't make you a chalupa."
...I'll show myself out.
