Twitter Notices Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Looks Like Nick Jonas

Posted on April 19, 2013 by popdirt

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, Nick Jonas look-alike?

People following the hunt and eventual arrest of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in the Boston, MA area have noticed that the terrorist from Chechnya who planted a pressure cooker bomb at the finish line of the Boston Marathon bares some resemblance to Nick Jonas of the Jonas Brothers. Dozens of Tweets compared the bomb wielding killer to the pop singer, which was a common theme during a prior manhunt on the other side of the United States in February, when Tweets were sent to LL Cool J warning the Los Angeles based rapper to stay inside due to his uncanny resemblance to Chris Dorner. Among the Tweets observing the celebrity look-alike circumstance:

nojan (@ihatenojan): not trying to be funny but this dude kinda looks like Nick Jonas

Annie Apple (@SurvivinAmerica): Someone tell Nick Jonas to stay indoors. This 19 year old suspect looks like his twin.

Justin Bieber Takes Heat On Twitter For Anne Frank Comment

Posted on April 15, 2013 by popdirt

Justin Bieber has been receiving a mountain of criticism and sarcastic responses after his visit to the Anne Frank House on Friday in the Netherlands, where the Canadian pop singer said, “Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a Belieber.”

Abraham Foxman, who is the national director of the Anti-Defamation League, came to the defense of Bieber and explained he was told by a tour guide that Anne Frank was a fan of celebrities and pop culture before entering the house and had no issue with Bieber’s guestbook comments. “I don’t see anything wrong with it,” he said.

Among the comments on Twitter reacting to the headline:

Darth Vader (@DepressedDarth): If Anne Frank was a Belieber, I bet her diary would have been a lot less interesting.

Prince Charles (@Charles_HRH): Justin Bieber hopes Anne Frank would’ve been a Belieber. Didn’t the poor girl suffer enough?

Caprice Crane (@capricecrane): Justin Bieber thinks Anne Frank would have been a “Belieber.” Shame those annoying Nazis had to get in the way of that.

Jenny Johnson (@JennyJohnsonHi5): If Anne Frank wasn’t so preoccupied with documenting her experience of being hunted down by Nazis she would’ve totally been a Belieber.

Adam Hills (@adamhillscomedy): Justin Bieber hopes Anne Frank would have been a Belieber. Coincidentally, I’ve always hoped someone would lock him in an attic.

Adolf Hitler (@DictatorHitler): I saved Anne Frank from becoming a Belieber tho

Jim Norton (@JimNorton): Justin Bieber visited Anne Frank’s house and wrote, ‘hopefully she’d have been a Belieber’. Anne Frank said she’d have chosen the Holocaust.

Korey Kuhl (@koreykuhl): I always pictured Anne Frank as more of a Directioner than a Belieber.

Charlie Sheen Tells Lindsay Lohan: Rehab Sucks

Posted on April 15, 2013 by popdirt

Charlie Sheen spoke with E! on the red carpet of the ‘Scary Movie 5′ premiere the other night, where his late arriving (as usual) co-star Lindsay Lohan was the topic of conversation. The troubled starlet is preparing for her court-mandated rehab stint, which she has to begin by May 2nd.

Asked about what he thought about her latest visit to a facility that will try to help Lohan’s addictions, Sheen, who has had plenty of experience himself with the experience, told Ken Baker, “It’s not my journey, you know. I don’t believe in rehab. I believe in detox, not rehab. But she’ll be all right.”

Offering advice for LiLo during her stay, Sheen suggested, “Bring a book, ’cause those places suck.”

Mollie King On Being The Saturdays’ Only Single Member

Posted on April 15, 2013 by popdirt

The post show party for ‘Chasing The Saturdays Episode 3 #SatsOnTheBeach’ has been posted online. The clip features Frankie Sandford, Mollie King, Rochelle Wiseman, Una Healy and Vanessa White talking with Terrence Jenkins about the episode, which featured Rochelle attempting to purchase $23,000 in lighting before getting rejected by her man and by Una, Mollie trying to hit it off with a surfer dude before he revealed he’s not single,

Rochelle explained in regards to her attempted shopping trip, “The reason it was so expensive was because I had planned to ship it back to London. Anyway, I sort of realized if I wanted to not get divorced, I better not spend $23,000.”

Talking about the difficulties in being the only unattached member of the girl group, Mollie said, “Well, I’m kind of like the 9th wheel, because of them and all of their boyfriends. It’s fine, because I get really involved in their (relationships) as well. I tried to invite myself on holiday with Frankie and her boyfriend. I was like, ‘Do you guys want to go skiing?’ because I really do, and they’re like, ‘Not with you Mollie’.”

Asked about the three things she looks for in a guy, Mollie listed one and said, “Firstly, they have to get on with the girls. If they don’t, the girls will tell me about it. They’re so hard, any poor guy that would come in, they’d be getting the 21 questions.”

“What you guys don’t know, is that before the show I’m creeping behind curtains like up in the risers and balconies, looking down at the crowd and trying to find the right girl for me to bring up on stage. Cody Simpson acoustic guitar Then, I report back to Justin Sterling here, who will go out and bring her up right before the song and surprise her.”

After bringing the girl up and getting comments from the excited fan wearing “Cody’s Angel” wings, Cody said post concert, “So the show just finished here in Manchester, and now I’m just chilling here backstage in my dressing room, playing some guitar, and just thinking about the show. It was a really, really good one tonight, and the crowd loved it and it’s very humbling for me to share such an intimate experience with a fan like the one you just saw. I wish I could share it with everyone, but I’ve got to chose one person every night, you know. You never know, you guys could be that girl sometime.”

Gin Wigmore On ‘Gravel & Wine’, Butch Walker & Acoustic Shows

Posted on April 1, 2013 by popdirt

Gin Wigmore came by the studios at 104.3 MYfm to talk with Damien Fahey about her song style, recording her latest album ‘Gravel & Wine’, working with Butch Walker on the project, and challenging herself doing acoustic sets.

Talking about how she found her soulful, bluegrass sound, Gin said, “Well, I went to America, and I kind of found it here. I spent about a month and a half cruising around Mississippi and Nashville, and Alabama, and figured out what this whole blues thing is about.”

On her sound prior to coming to America, Gin said, “It was a little bit different. It was probably a little more poppy, I guess, maybe. It’s definitely more gritty now and it’s got that great kind of dirty, strong drums and kind of swagger to it now I think.”

Asked about collaborating with Butch Walker on her second album ‘Gravel & Wine’, Gin said, “It was great. He’s very relaxed and he’s got great integrity and we’re very like minded and we like the same things, basically, so it made it very easy.”

Quizzed about doing acoustic shows on a radio tour, she said, “It’s great. It’s really nice. It’s cool to challenge yourself, I think that’s what you always need to do in any area in your life, so the fact that this is out of my comfort zone is really fun for me.”
