A gripping, gritty performance that drives home the message that steroids are really, really, really not good for you and they make you mad enough to hit your sister and destroy your room.

And can anyone tell me what happened to the kitten?

So you've probably heard that David Blaine is hanging upside down in Central Park right now. He's doing this for 60 hours. Why he's doing this, I'm not sure, but CBS shot some video Monday and posted unedited footage on their Web site.

Here's something I didn't realize, courtesy of Entertainment Weekly's PopWatch blog: Apparently, David Blaine gets to take breaks. So it's not just 60 hours of hanging upside down. He gets right-side-up time.

Yes, I know the guy needs to eat and use the bathroom, and keep the blood from pooling in his cranium. But it seemed a far more impressive feat when I thought he was upside down for 60 consecutive hours.

ABC is airing a special on this tonight, so you can watch even more of this later.

There weren't many funny moments in last night's Emmy Awards broadcast, but this was one of the bits that worked:

Special note to the Academy: Kudos for ending the show on time, because 11 p.m. is my bedtime. But the five reality show hosts as Emmy hosts thing totally did not work, and Howie Mandel got on my last nerve.

Actually, "sings" is generous. "Butchers" might be a better verb. Or "slaughters."

But he seems to be having fun and it's for kids (and their mentors, as the video points out at the beginning and end) so good job, Greg Oden of the Portland Trailblazers!

And thanks to Sarah, who corrected me that this was not Backstreet Boys, as I'd originally posted.

Good news: Diddy's jet is back in the air. Apparently gas prices have come down enough that the rap mogul can fly again without having to share his air space with the unwashed masses aboard American Airlines.

To bring you all up to speed: A couple of weeks ago, Diddy posted a clip on YouTube where he ranted about how he had to fly coach because of gas prices. I would post said clip, but he drops a few too many F-bombs for a family newspaper Web site. Also he clearly takes a seat in first class, since I've never seen headrests that nice or taken that short a walk to get to my seat on an American flight. You'll have to settle for this story instead if you want more information.

What kills me is, he can't afford fuel for his jet, but he can afford gas for the half-dozen or so SUVs and the limo flanking the jet. I'm starting to think this was all a ... publicity stunt (please note sarcasm).

Now you can see what it's like to be wealthy and have people give you stuff for free!

No actual celebrities were shown during the filming of this AMC News -- AMC News? Really? -- clip of the Toronto Film Festival Celebrity Gift Lounge. But now us common folk can watch just how awesome it is to be famous and have people give you things that you could afford to buy for yourself.

A German TV show host who clearly enjoys Will Smith songs busts out his ukulele during an interview with aforementioned movie star/rapper, and they sing the theme song to "Men In Black."

Yeah, sure, he knows all the words to Will Smith's popular songs from his popular movies. But I bet he doesn't know the theme from "Wild Wild West."

You can just hear the claws coming out. A FOX 5 News reporter for their Las Vegas affiliate explains an on-air misunderstanding between another FOX reporter and singer Solange Knowles.

The anchor actually says: "Quit gravy training off your sister and do your own career" -- OUCH!

Who do you think was the bigger diva -- the anchor or Solange Knowles?

Dear John Mayer,

Shh! They won't have anything to write about in US Weekly or on TMZ if you don't talk to them!

Sincerely,

PS: It probably would be awfully expensive to put mirrors in every copy of US Weekly, even for you. Also it would make the magazine hard to fold. I'm just saying.

Wondering how Gary Coleman's acting could be any more wooden? Apparently all it takes is putting a bat in his hand and playing him off an umpire for a minor league baseball team.

I was perusing ViralVideoChart.com when I happened upon this video with the headline, in all caps, IS THIS WHY NICK BROKE UP WITH MEANY MILEY CYRUS?

Now, I have no idea who Nick is, and have little interest in Miley Cyrus, given that I am nearly two decades older than her and most of her fans. But put something in all caps -- you've got my attention.

I watched parts of the video, which is Miley Cyrus and her friend Mandy doing a "parody" of two other Disney starlets, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez.

I may not know much about the parties involved, but I do know parody when I see it. This isn't it. This seems more like mocking to me -- not to mention a bit mean -- but judge for yourselves:

WTN-ers, there isn't much time -- get out your video cameras and start asking people who they're wearing!

The folks at People.com and YouTube are running a contest that runs until midnight on July 23 (that would be this Wednesday), and the winner gets to do some red carpet work for People.com.

I'm not sure which red carpet they're talking here. It's a "major Hollywood event this September," according to the contest page on YouTube.

People.com and YouTube contest organizers, could you be more vague? I'm thinking it's the Emmys but I'm not motivated enough to go hunt down the information.

In case you're interested, here's a video giving you everything you need to know for the contest (except which event you'll be covering). Good luck, and make sure to plug Watch This Now if you win:

Typically, I would write a flip intro, then post the clip. But I know Kanye West has ripped into much more important publications than our little blog -- I'm thinking of you, Entertainment Weekly -- for what they've written about Kanye, and honestly I just don't think I want that kind of controversy on a holiday weekend.

Because I'm sure Kanye West is a regular Sun-Sentinel reader. (Please note sarcasm)

So you just enjoy this hilarious clip and keep your comments to yourself.

I, for one, was relieved to discover this, even though I had not realized there was a controversy in the first place.

Apparently some rogue news outlets recently reported that Diddy had gone back to Puff Daddy. And Diddy turned to YouTube to kill the name-change rumors. I was blissfully unaware of this until the good people at VH1's "Best Week Ever" aired his video in Friday's episode.

Watch Diddy clear all this up for you in his own words:

Even though entertainment journalists insist it's not true -- and really, who should know more about Angelina Jolie's pregnancy -- Brad Pitt says the much anticipated twins have not emerged yet.

But Entertainment Tonight is standing firm by its report earlier this week that Jolie had given birth to twin daughters in France, attributing the story to an unidentified person close to the actress who said they were in the delivery room. (Can you imagine how crowded that place was, what with the doctors, entertainment journalists, videographers and, oh yeah, the mother too?)

More importantly, Brad Pitt looks like he's got a classic on his hands: the new can't-miss Coen Brothers comedy, "Burn After Reading:"

My dear Sean "Diddy" Combs is quite excited about Barack Obama as the presumptive Democratic nominee for president (presumptive because it's still not official). I imagine he wouldn't be so excited if he were a Hillary supporter, but I digress.

You have to love Diddy putting aside his Diddy-ness for a moment to give a sincere, from-the-heart account of why this is such a big moment for him and many Americans. But then of course he gets a little goofy. And then in the text at the end of the clip, someone -- I'm assuming one of Diddy's Bad Boy people -- mispelled "receive."

I before E except after C, Diddy. Except after C!

The good folks at "The Soup" aired this clip over the weekend, of Reba McEntire performing with Brooks & Dunn at the recent Academy of Country Music Awards show.

Poor Reba looks a bit lost. I'm thinking maybe they could have used just a smidge more time in rehearsal.

Clips like this are why YouTube was invented.

After fellow WTN-er Kevin Cobb alerted me to the clip of Tony Romo singing at a Cubs game, I went onto YouTube to look it up. And like magic, under the "related clips" section, appeared these wonderful words:

Tony Romo & Mr. Belding sing Journey w/ METAL SKOOL.

Well, of course I had to watch. I grew up on Saved By The Bell, I like Journey well enough, and Tony Romo had a good year on my husband's fantasy football team. Skipping it would just be wrong.

As for Metal Skool, I wasn't familiar with their work. But that's why Wikipedia was invented. Metal Skool, says Wiki, is a glam metal parody band that now calls itself Steel Panther. They're now recording their own material. Too bad -- I like the idea of a glam metal parody band.

But back to Mr. Belding (who also goes by his real name, Dennis Haskins) and Tony Romo. The unlikely pairing teamed up a year ago to sing the Journey hit "Don't Stop Believin'," and of course it was all caught on tape.

There are a ton of videos of this performance on YouTube, but most of them are very long and profanity-laced. Today I bring to you the shorter, cleaner version:

Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo tried to sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the 7th-inning stretch at Wrigley Field.

And by tries to sing, I'm being generous. Make sure all dogs and small children are out of the room while watching this video -- it may cause ear damage.

Here's something I didn't know: Before he went to Fox News, Bill O'Reilly had a stint on "Inside Edition."

Apparently someone at "Inside Edition" dug through their video archives and unearthed this video of O'Reilly blowing up is. And the clip is, fittingly, blowing up on the Internet.

Warning: This contains some "adult language." So cover the kids' ears before you hit "play."

I thought it would be nice to post a Jenna Bush video today, this being her wedding weekend and all, so I went on the ol' YouTube in search of the perfect Jenna Bush video that would serve as a tribute on her big day.

You'd be amazed just how many Jenna Bush-on-morning television clips there are on YouTube. She's been on a lot of talk shows. Plus, apparently, done a number of speaking engagements. Not as many embarrassing college-era clips as I might have expected.

But those videos are not what I'm bringing you today. What I have to offer is the second video on the list when I did a simple search for Jenna Bush (the first being the Jenna-on-Ellen clip we posted a few months ago -- you can find it here).

This video is no "Unicorn's Prophecy," but it's pretty weird. Someone decided to take clips of First Daughters Barbara and Jenna Bush and set them to Dolly Parton's "9 to 5."

Seriously.

What is this supposed to show, exactly? That the Bush twins work from 9 until 5? That they're sassy like Dolly Parton? Or is it that someone out there has a large number of Barbara and Jenna Bush pictures, plus a Dolly Parton CD, and decided it would be an awesome idea to put them both together?

Anyway, here is the end result. It's not funny ha-ha, but funny absurd, in a who-would-think-to-do-this sort of way. Enjoy.

PS: In one of the pictures, is it me or does Jenna look like she's hitchhiking?
