 TMZ founder Harvey Levin’s unsolicited advice to mainstream media: Adapt or die

It takes a pinch of chutzpah for Levin to go all media visionary on the Washington press corps, especially considering that Levin’s brainchild, TMZ, became an Internet star based on a brew of Kardashian videos, naughty bits (one of its Monday headlines: “Dancing with the Stars’ — Genital Exposed on Live TV”), and the latest Britney and LiLo legal news.

 Ben Stiller, Bill Clinton & Company in New Funny or Die VideoThe new Funny or Die video, which premiered on Saturday at the Hollywood Bowl during a concert benefiting the William Jefferson Clinton Foundation, features many A-listers… and the former President.Funny or Die’s low-budget web videos are all the rage, and the company never has an issue obtaining high profile talent. this might be their biggest all-star cast to date. the video features Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Matt Damon, Sean Penn, Kristin Wiig, Ted Danson, Mary Steenbergen, Kevin Spacey, and bill Clinton.the sketch follows a meeting with Stiller, Damon, Black, Penn, Wiig, Danson, and Steenbergen as part of the “Clinton Foundation’s Celebrity Division.” the five-minute video has been called “Clinton Foundation: Celebrity Brainstorm.”What’s most interesting is that all of the actors weren’t even in the same location when the video was shot. Each actor dedicated about two hours to the project, which was shot over a total of five days.“It was long days for the crew, for sure, creating that continuity and that world where they’re together, right down to the littlest things, like where a bagel was placed,” Christin Trogan, the video’s producer, said.Clinton was shot in New York at the his Foundation Office. Spacey and Black were shot in California, while the rest of the cast was filmed in New York.

 Patrick Cox: cupcakes, celebrity and controversy

For someone who once helped define trends, opening a cupcake shop in London in 2010 seemed a strange choice. they were already everywhere by then, providing the go-to confectionary product of choice for Sex and the City fans and dinner party guests lacking time and imagination. Patrick’s friends were perplexed by the choice: “they said ‘aren’t you a bit late to this fad?’ but you know what, that was perfect! People had had time to get used to it and we came as something else, as a breath of fresh air. We’re much more designed, much more sexy and much more modern than what’s being offered by other people.” those are all fair points. In an insalubrious stretch of Soho, the shop would be pitch black were it not for the odd slash of neon lighting and glints of silver that illuminate it. Punters seeking out the sex shop next door occasionally wander in by accident; you can imagine that tourists asking around for the Cox shop are just as frequently misguided.
