“The Voice” Judge Wish List – POP 5 http://thepopfix.com/2014/04/01/the-voice-judge-wish-list-pop-5/ http://thepopfix.com/2014/04/01/the-voice-judge-wish-list-pop-5/#comments Tue, 01 Apr 2014 16:20:16 +0000 http://thepopfix.com/?p=9103 Its official, singer and producer Pharrell Williams will be taking his seat in the red chair for the 7th season of NBC’sThe Voice.” Pharrell will be replacing Cee Lo Green, who will be leaving the show to create new music and further pursue other projects. “The Voice” has already been switching up the casting during the past few seasons, with the substitutions of Shakira and Usher. With the celebration of welcoming the “Happy” singer to the show, here are some judges we’d like to see join him.

 

POP 5 – “The Voice” Judge Wish List

 

 

5. Cher:

The iconic singer is not afraid to voice her opinion, you can see this first hand from her tweets. There is even a Tumblr account based off of her Twitter called, “Sh*t Cher Says.” She’s getting ready to kick off her tour, so “The Voice” would be a good place for her to sit down and relax, when she finishes.

4. Lil Jon:

You got me…so maybe my list is just for pure entertainment value vs judges who would be of assistance. The crunk juice drinking, grilled out teeth wearing, rapper and producer would rock the house for sure! Can’t you hear him now? Carson Daly asks for Lil Jon’s comments, “YEAH, OKAY!”

3. Ellen DeGeneres:

Judging on “American Idol” just wasn’t for her. As the evidence below proves, “The Voice” is the place for this daytime talk show host.

2. Luke Byran:

I had to throw this one in there for you ladies. You women go crazy over this “That’s My Kind Of Night” singer. He’s winning the awards right up there beside current country music judge, Blake Shelton, so he better watch out!

1. Kanye West:

Don’t get me wrong, I’m obsessed with Kanye’s music, but the man has lost it. I’m not sure if it’s the Kardashian trance or internal anger issues, but the rapper is on a streak of losing his cool for no reason. From beating up paparazzi to flipping out on radio host Sway, just imagine when he’s fighting another judge over a contestant.

 

I’ve realized maybe my “wish list” is more of a “worst list” and that’s okay, because my casting would crash the ratings system. Who’s on your judge wish list? Let THEPOPFIX know in the comments.

“Bound 2″ & “Nymphomaniac” – Put It Away! http://thepopfix.com/2013/12/09/bound-2-nymphomaniac-put-it-away/ http://thepopfix.com/2013/12/09/bound-2-nymphomaniac-put-it-away/#comments Mon, 09 Dec 2013 17:51:41 +0000 http://thepopfix.com/?p=7666 Do you all have the internet or television? Probably the internet, since you’re reading this article…

If that is indeed the case, you are probably familiar with Kanye West, or as I like to call him, “The gift that keeps on giving.” I’m actually a big fan of Kanye. When I first moved to LA, “808’s and Heartbreak” was my JAM album. I sang back up on “Gold Digger” karaoke just last week. But Houston, we have a problem.

BOUND 2. The music video that premiered on “Ellen” (I’m sorry, what?) back in November. What is this? This is a big old mess, that’s what this is! And it needs to stop. Now.

Motorcycles that are CLEARLY not moving and are set up in front of a wind machine; topless Kim Kardashian AGAIN and a song that isn’t even a song! It’s just talking with random sounds playing behind him.

Yeezy! I know modesty has never been your strong suit but this video is insane and not in a good way. And since you’ve decided to breed into a family that has quite literally no boundaries — we’ve seen them have sex, get married, have a baby, put out their first legal 18 nipple photos — they’re certainly not going to keep you in check.

Hova, this is on YOU! Kanye is becoming M. Night Shyamalan of hip hop. You’re going to need to step in, STAT! He’s “Lady In The Water”-ing all over himself!

And speaking of super famous people simulating sex for cheap publicity but calling it art can we talk about the “Nymphomaniac” trailer for a second?

Nymphomaniac Official Trailer from Zentropa on Vimeo.

Lars von Trier, you show boating doofus, I’m calling you out. This trailer is ridiculous. It looks like the R-rated version of Les Cousins Dangereux.”

I made it one minute and seventeen seconds into the “Nymphomaniac” trailer without laughing, which is quite the accomplishment, considering. Aside from allegely graphic sex — which was reshot with actual porn stars and CG’d in — all I get from this trailer is Uma Thurman screaming, Willem Dafoe answering a door creepily (so, being Willem Dafoe) and Shia LaBeouf with a British accent.

Oh, and did you know it’s a Lars von Trier film? Did you miss that from the 800 times his name flashed across the screen in a 90 second trailer?

Shameless self promotion, saying things just to cause a controversy, filming real sex and then releasing it as a movie — hey wait, are we sure Lars von Trier isn’t a Kardashian?

Ladies and gentlemen! I get it! Sex sells! I’m no prude but for the love of god, put it away! Or at least do something good with it because both “Bound 2″ and “Nymphomaniac” look like they took a day to shoot and were filmed on someones web cam NOT in a good way!

Ah. What do I know?

Maybe I just need to get laid….

Pop Culture Loves “Bound 2″ http://thepopfix.com/2013/11/29/pop-culture-loves-bound-2/ http://thepopfix.com/2013/11/29/pop-culture-loves-bound-2/#comments Fri, 29 Nov 2013 14:30:07 +0000 http://thepopfix.com/?p=7624 I’m the spirit of Thanksgiving, I’d like to take this opportunity to name something that I’m grateful for: Kanye West. From twitter rants to over the top performances, Kanye really is the gift that keeps on giving.

Recently, the world was treated to another gem courtesy of Yeezy and his fiance (and baby mama) Kim Kardashian with the release of the music video for “Bound 2.” This video has everything including Kimye on a stationary motorcycle, wind machines and green screened desert imagery:

This week, the world was treated to the shot-for-shot remake of “Bound 2″ starring James Franco and Seth Rogen known as “Bound 3.” In the clip, Franco plays Kanye and Rogen, back hair and all, appears topless filling in for Kardashian:

But the Bound fun didn’t stop there — this morning fans were given another fun surprise courtesy of Zac Efron’s Instagram account featuring Efron and Rogen side by side and shirtless, with the caption “Bound 4″ and the hashtag “#neighbors,” which is the title of Efron and Rogen’s upcoming comedy.

Anyway you shake it, fans looking for a good laugh have plenty to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!

Not so invincible anymore, Kanye? South Park parodied the cocky rapper, and it’s about time someone called him out on that ridiculous attitude and equally embarrassing shades. If he wasn’t such a hit-making machine, he would have been laughed into oblivion years ago.

As usual, the rapper took to his blog to rant about himself and all things Kanye. Surprisingly, we didn’t get another long-winded tirade. Kanye was actually kind of cool about the his South Park cameo:

SOUTH PARK MURDERED ME LAST NIGHT AND IT’S PRETTY FUNNY. IT HURTS MY FEELINGS BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM SOUTH PARK!

THE POP FIX wants to know, how did you feel about this episode?

Meet Martin Louis the King, Jr. http://thepopfix.com/2009/03/27/meet-martin-louis-the-king-jr/ http://thepopfix.com/2009/03/27/meet-martin-louis-the-king-jr/#comments Fri, 27 Mar 2009 18:46:49 +0000 http://thepopfix.com/?p=3332 What pop star wants to help you get your mind off the recession by doing totally insane things like change his name to Martin Louis the King, Jr.?

kanye-west-track-bike-cinelli-vigorelli

….Who else?

In the latest issue of Complex magazine, Kanye West said he felt his role in the public  is to “entertain people” and do the “crazy, bold stuff so [the public] can live through me and get their mind off the recession.”

So, as he announced in a recent video, Kanye is changing his name to Martin Louis the King, Jr. — in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Kanye’s fave brand, Louis Vuitton.  And he’s demanding that he “addressed as such.”

Wow, thanks Kanye! What would the recession do without you?

Dear Kanye, What Are You Thinking? http://thepopfix.com/2009/03/02/dear-kanye-what-are-you-thinking/ http://thepopfix.com/2009/03/02/dear-kanye-what-are-you-thinking/#comments Mon, 02 Mar 2009 23:39:52 +0000 http://thepopfix.com/?p=2565 We all know that Kanye West is the self-proclaimed king of…well, everything…but you’d think someone with an ego the size of Kim Kardashian’s posterior (multiplied by 10) would have a little more self respect than to be dating this girl:

But Kanye West likes to keep us guessing, adding to the mystique and the “is he gay?” or “is he bi?” rumors.  This is Amber Rose, a 25-year-old model who has been seen out and about with West, and is rumored to be his girlfriend.

Come on, Kanye, I’ve seen classier girls on “For the Love of Ray J.

Kanye West Reminds Us Of His Ego http://thepopfix.com/2009/02/18/kanye-west-reminds-us-of-his-ego/ http://thepopfix.com/2009/02/18/kanye-west-reminds-us-of-his-ego/#comments Thu, 19 Feb 2009 06:29:44 +0000 http://thepopfix.com/?p=2094 kanye

The rapper tells Details that he’s basically a deity.

“I’m the fucking end-all, be-all of music. I know what I’m doing. I did 808s in three weeks. I got it. It’s on cruise control.”- Kanye West

Apparently the word “humilty” is not in this man’s vocabulary. For the full article, click here.
