In case you missed it, Conan O’Brien was in New York this past week filming his show. It was great to have him back in New York City, I suppose. In case you missed it, O’Brien took advantage of being back in NYC by officiating a same-sex marriage live on TV and sneaking into the NBC offices. Good times had by all.

Of course the trip wouldn’t have been complete without Team Coco making their way down to Zucotti Park to Occupy Wall Street. And what better correspondent to send than Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. Brilliant work.

It’s Friday afternoon and you’re ready to embrace the weekend, so sit back and enjoy. You earned this weekend!

Meet Vanessa Hessler. She’s a smoking hot Italian-American model who at one time dated Mutassim Gaddafi, 34, the son of former Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. Fun stuff! Now, however, she’s apparently been fired, according to The Daily Mail, for talking about their so-called steamy love affair and defending the dick-ish duo now that they themselves have been murdered. Tough break. First she loses her scumbag lover and then she loses her job.

Details:

23-year-old model Vanessa Hessler, who spent much of her childhood in Washington, DC, told Italian magazine Diva e Donna that she had spent four years with Mutassim Gaddafi and that their relationship had been a ‘very beautiful love story.’

[...]

The model’s largest client, German firm Telefonica, reacted to Ms Hessler’s comments immediately, publicly announcing the end of the business relationship by tweet.

A spokesman for the company wrote on Twitter: ‘Vanessa Hessler’s relationships are private business. However we cannot accept her comments on the Lybia [sic] conflict.’

I mean, really? I don’t know how I feel about this, to be honest with you. My initial reaction is that this is a shitty break for Ms. Hessler. She can speak her mind all she wants, I’m fine with that. And she shouldn’t be restricted from freedom of speech, no matter how ridiculous her stance may be. I can’t imagine the Gaddafis are, as she said, are “normal people.” They just aren’t. Buuuut, again, she is entitled to her own opinion, right?

Eh, who cares. She’s so hot. Just look at her, how could anyone stay mad at her? It’s not her fault her ex-boyfriend and his family were mass murderers. Maybe what she needs is a little Tough Love? Though that dude Steve Ward is a crazy fuck, too.

There’s no better setting for a pro-gay flashmob than in a courtyard in California right in front of a Starbucks. It’s brilliant! Aside from its location, the key to the flashmob was that it had a message (yay gay!) and it was directly pointed at one person in particular: Michele Bahmann.

Just after the flashmob performed, Bachmann gave a speech at a California Republicans event. If you’re not familiar with Bachmann’s relationship with “the gays,” just consider her the O.J. Simpson to the gays’ Nicole Brown.

This mob was fabulous, with streamers and some Madonna and lots of dancing! All that was missing was some Lady GaGa. That would have made it even more fabul… never mind. Just check out the video>>>

Everyone’s still talking about Glen Rice-Sarah Palin’s relationship from back in the days. And just like the rest of us, Charles Barkley has gone on record calling Glen Rice his “hero” after hearing nailed Ms. Palin. We’re with you on this one, Barkley.

Details:

We never thought we would be talking about Glen Rice again unless it had to do with basketball. Did you hear about the Sarah Palin story? What are your thoughts on Glen Rice and Sarah Palin?

“You know I have a thing for Sarah Palin, I do.  I think she’s hot!  I wouldn’t vote for her, but she is hot now. I’m talking both.  I’ve always said, ‘I’ve got a crush on Sarah Palin.’  I would never vote for her.  I always vote democratic because I think you have a better chance of helping poor people if you vote democratic.  But, I’ve always had a thing for Sarah Palin.  When I read that… Glen Rice is my new hero!  He’s my new hero. You know she just moved in my neighborhood and I haven’t had a chance to meet her.  I stay in Philadelphia in the summer, and I go back to Arizona when it starts getting cold. That cold is creeping up on me. I’m talking 50 or 60 degrees. So, I’m heading back to Arizona soon and I look forward to meeting Sarah Palin.  Hey listen if that story is true, more power to Glen Rice.”

I love the idea of Sarah Palin and Charles Barkley living in same neighborhood. Oh the trouble they’ll get into! Who wouldn’t love to see Barkley and Palin get together? What a killer couple that would be!

This might be the best news we’ve heard all day! It appears that former NBA star Glen Rice banged the ‘Thrilla From Wasilla,’ Ms. Sarah Palin. YES!

According to a book soon to be released, called “The Rogue: Searching For the Real Sarah Palin,” author Joe McGinniss got the scoop on the relationship between Rice and Palin.

Details:

Sarah hooked up with the NBA great, then a 6-foot-8 junior at the University of Michigan when he was playing in a college basketball tournament in Alaska in 1987, the book says. At the time, Sarah, just out of college, was working as a sports reporter for the Anchorage TV station KTUU.

A publishing source told The ENQUIRER that McGinniss claims Sarah had a ‘fetish’ for black men at the time and he quotes a friend as saying Sarah had ‘hauled (Rice’s) ass down.”

This is amazing! That might be the best thing I’ve read all morning. It’s no wonder she has it out for President Obama. It’s like that playground-type of love affair. Treat ‘em like crap until they can’t help but want to get with you! It all makes sense. Though, this news about Palin having a fetish for black dudes probably isn’t going to play well with her Tea Party pals.

Apparently, Glen Rice has confirmed that he bagged Palin. Call this a win for the good guys, or something like that. I’m definitely going to have to pick this book up, and a Glen Rice jersey!

In case you missed last night’s Republican Presidential Debate on MSNBC, here are the highlights in 45 seconds. If you don’t like the words “taxes” and/or “Ronald Regan” you’re going to hate this video.

One of these dudes might be the next president, so, there’s that.

The best thing to come out of Iowa this past weekend is the set of photos of Republican Presidential candidates stuffing their mouths with corn dogs and other various foods. So very awkward, yet so sexy.

The most popular photo was of Michele Bachmann (above), who really went all-in on that corn dog. You get it girl! You raise that debt ceiling… or something. Our conclusion is that they are all either gay, married to men or married to gay men. Concluding, well, you know, they hate gay people. This is fun!

So, without further ado, enjoy some presidential photos of candidates downing some corn dogs, ice cream cones and whatnots. Enjoy!

We should probably say, this is the best Matt Damon video you will see, period. Because in it, he comes off less sh*tty than you would think. Damon was a part of the Save Our School’s March, along with his school teacher mom. The reporter in question tried to ‘gotcha’ Damon with a question about paying teachers on incentive. We don’t mean to take a serious tone here, since we’ve spent all day posting busty blogs, but we thought this video was well worth a look-see.

Details, via Gawker:

A reporter from libertarian rag Reasoninterviewed notorious Massachusetts liberal actor Matt Damon at this year’s Save Our Schools March and she tried to throw some business at him about teacher tenure and Ayn Randy incentive stuff and he wasn’t having it.

Fun, indeed. Just as a heads up, some of the language is NSFW. Whatever that means.

This is almost too perfect. We love that Brian Wilson, of the world champion San Francisco Giants, was himself when the Giants met with President Obama at the White House on Monday. It’s also good to see, however, that he didn’t wear his spandex tuxedo, which he made famous at this month’s ESPY awards.

All people are talking about today is the Rupert Murdoch hacking scandal and the pie he got in his face during the preliminary hearings.

Well, meet Jonnie Marbles. He’s the guy who pied Murdoch, and he also happens to be a “stand-up comedian.” Judgement has already been handed down by the Internet and the conclusion seems to be that Marbles is not very funny at all. We happen to agree.

The best comment we read on the Internet about Marbles was this:

You would of thought he would of put some half decent material on here before doing his lil publicity stunt! - tommycrom

Believe it. Though, such is the life of a stand-up comedian. Not a one of them doesn’t think they are the funniest guy in the room.

Our major beef with Marbles was how he went about pie-ing Murdoch, making the world feel, if ever so slightly, bad for Murdoch for a split second. Murdoch doesn’t deserve an ounce of sympathy from the public, and even if it were fleeting, the feeling for many was still there. And for that, Marbles lost.

Check out his “bomb” performance>>>
