If Lady Gaga’s tears were authentic during the YouTube Awards, then I’d encourage her to seek professional help. If they were not, I’ve officially had it with the histrionics. Furthermore, I found the entire performance to be unprofessional. At this stage in the game, it’s feels like an inappropriate plea for attention, and it’s off-putting. I fully understand that certain artists will exhibit emotion while they perform. In fact, that’s a large part of Adele’s success (see ‘Someone Like You’). But that’s Adele. And the moment I feel as if you’re pulling my strings to prop yourself up, I will flee your fandom in favor of more moving artists. Watch below.

Kerry Washington Fills the Black Hole on Saturday Night Live
The Dishmaster loves nothing more than when power players poke fun at themselves, and Saturday Night Live accomplished just that with Kerry Washington as its host. Washington’s skit addressed the often maligned SNL black-woman-casting-drought in a skit that forced her to play numerous black characters back-to-back. Watch below to see her spot-on Michelle Obama and Oprah, followed by some hilarious subtitles from SNL during her time off screen.

If you know The Dishmaster personally, then you know I’m proud of my schnoz, and I denounce all shiksa noses on principle.

Kanye West Rants to Ryan Seacrest — He Still Doesn’t Get It
At some point in our lives, we’ve all had moments in time when we’re free of the world’s restraints. Then suddenly, after skipping through the clouds impervious to criticism, we put on our jeans and realize they no longer fit. Soon enough — Kanye West’s jeans will no longer fit, and he’ll be too bloated to recover. Sure he can get away with his prophetic proclamations and narcissistic rants now, but before he knows it, the public will flee.
And if you’re curious what inspired my musings, you need only listen to the interview below, in which West once again gives himself unconditional accolades, followed by the canned laughter from the sycophantic Seacrest. The most startling part of the interview is West’s recap of the Taylor Swift incident, and his insistence that his own daughter would have agreed with the idea that Beyonce’s video was superior. It’s absolutely astounding that this guy still doesn’t get it, but I’ll summarize this once again for sport. The issue is not who had the better video. The issue is that you pounced on a young girl’s moment to scream for an arbitrary injustice. And the massive irony is that West himself cannot accept criticism on any level, and yet he felt free to fire it out with ease. Perhaps the reason his creativity is no longer commissioned by high-level designers has more to do with his personality than his abilities. And while that might seem like a grave injustice by the standards of Kanye West, I’ll close with a very annoying yet appropriate statement that my father used to say to me at a young age. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD.
