Taylor Swift-lash hits new heights
By Mark Russo | Monday Feb 8, 2010
Where has all the love gone for Taylor Swift? The Taylor Swift-lash has hit new heights, exploding in the blogosphere--fueled by a her label’s delusional response insisting she is "the voice of a generation" and the American Idol boast that she’s the only singer capable of producing high notes.

Miss’d America :: January 31, 2010
As with awards’ telecasts, beauty pageants can be a long slog through stage patter, swimsuit malfunctions, broken heels, and fire baton twirling-and yet, if an audience is lucky, there is sometimes one talent number that galvanizes the crowd into a spontaneous eruption of wild cheers and fanatical applause. Such was the case on Saturday night at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City as Miss’d America pageant contestant Michelle Dupree took the stage and delivered a knock-em-dead, eleven o’clock number channeling the spirits of Ethel, Ella, Judy, and Josephine that had the audience immediately on its feet with near-universal consensus of the night’s most electrifying performance and ultimate winner.

Gay PDAs :: Not Ready for Prime Time
By Scott Stiffler | Feb 8
Americans chowed down and watched the Super Bowl yesterday. For many it wasn’t the game they were as interested as the commercials that punctuated it. From the iconic Budweiser Clydesdales to a controversial pro-life spot, these ads will not doubt generate a lot of water cooler conversation. One that huge television audience didn’t see was for ManCrunch.com, a male dating service, due to the fact it showed two men kissing. CBS didn’t consider it rose to the standard the network established for general consumption. EDGE’s Scott Stiffler looks at why the sight of two men in intimate contact remains not ready for prime time.
