Bangs Addresses The Haters

A couple of weeks ago, we all enjoyed the video for Bangs's "Take U 2 Da Movies," and since then it has gone on to become a Genuine Internet Sensation. Everyone loves Bangs's gentle lyrics about buying popcorn, not to mention his tight flow. (Take notes, Chamillionaire.) He's our generation's Eli Porter! Now, an Australian news site has an interview with the Best Rapper on the Internet. From Channel 9:

A 19-year-old Melbourne rapper says he "feels amazing" after his song "Take U 2 Da Movies" -- an ode to cinema dates and popcorn -- became a global internet sensation.
The music clip has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times on YouTube since it was featured on popular viral video websites this week.

Ajak Chol, aka Bangs, told ninemsn he has been offered several record deals with major labels in Australia and the US since his career skyrocketed.

"It's crazy. First there were 30 or 40 views. Now it's getting more and more every day," Bangs said.

"Hip hop is in my heart and soul, I'm so happy."

Kids Make Amazing Videos Starring Their Dolls Singing About Burritos The Darndest Things

Thousands of young Americans enter film school every year with the hope of making the next Citizen Kane (but this time, "Rosebud" is a pair of rollerblades!). Most of them, of course, won't succeed as directors, and will eventually find themselves moving on to more reliable work in other fields, or toiling in the belly of the entertainment industry, or writing a pop culture blog. So it must be discouraging to these hopeful and ambitious young artists to realize that this little girl, with nothing more than a video camera, a couple of American Girl dolls, and a song about the best burrito she has ever had, just created something better than anything they will ever do in their entire frustrated and unsatisfying lives.

Operation Watch This: Crappy Canadian Thanksgiving

Starring Ellen Page, Justin Long, and Har Mar Superstar:

You know how it is when you and all of your movie star/Apple commercial friends get together and make a silly kind of off-season holiday viral video just for the FFFFFFFFF of it. Classic SHOWBIZ (of which I am a Professor now, basically). SIDENOTE: adding the same adjective to the beginning of everything is always funny. Canadian Twilight = Canadian LOLz. Just a comedy pro-tip for you for when Mila Kunis, DJ Qualls, and LCD Soundsystem come over to your house to make a fake Easter commercial. (Thanks for the tip, Har Mar Superstar.)

More Important Relationship Advice From Fred And Sharon

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would be pretty wise to listen to Fred and Sharon's relationship advice. You don't ride around the sky on a CGI dragonfly by not knowing what you're talking about. Count to 10, you two. And think about your children. Think about everyone's children. Let's all go back to rehab, probably.

We Get It, FunnyOrDie, You're Famous • I feel obligated to post a link to this fake PSA featuring Jon Hamm and Will Ferrell (among others), but what's the deal with FunnyOrDie these days? It's like a website about name-dropping. And name-dropping is the worst.
