I hadn’t actually heard of OC Weekly before now, but someone on the staff—Ben Westhoff, if in fact that is his real name—deserves a Pulitzer in the fiction category. This story about thuggish rapper Lil Wayne hooking up with Zac Efron to write a rap version of High School Musical is pitch-perfect surrealism. [...]

The animal rights folks at PETA have their all-cotton knickers in a twist over the Olsen twins, who not only wear fur but sell it to other people through their signature fashion line. So they’ve put up a web page, where they explain why they feel this policy is unwise and urge Ashley and [...]
