Radcliffe is not Harry Potter. And if it takes sex with groupies and an alcohol dependance to prove it, then so be it.
TV Buzz Go Ellen! Last week, a Christian group called One Million Moms called on JC Penney to fire new spokesperson Ellen DeGeneres because she's gay. JC Penney then released a statement saying it stands by DeGeneres. Now, in a clip that will air on her show Wednesday, DeGeneres gives her two cents.

Culture Buzz An ad campaign in Pennsylvania, intended to raise awareness about rape prevention, has been pulled by the state's Liquor Control Board. Rape victims came forward to say that the whole campaign made it look as if it were the women's fault, which is understandable considering it says that your friend has apparently already “made a bad decision” from the get-go.
The clone tool is not a toy. Using real “facial models” on these clothes doll bodies, the Swedish retailer defends its choice, saying the virtual models draw attention to the clothes instead of the women's bodies. Honestly? Models are so photoshopped beyond human norms that if H&M had changed the hand positions, we'd still be none the wiser.
Celebrity Buzz And I am going to watch the Golden Globes again.
Celebrity Buzz After saying “F**k the troops” in his single “Let's Be Real,” and the resulting firestorm of criticism, Soulja Boy issued this apology to all military personnel and their families. Too little, too late?

The Internet erupted when Google honored Veterans' Day with a rather banal tweaking of its logo to include a waving American flag and a shining sun, which some took to look like a crescent and, therefore, and endorsement of Islam. While a stupid controversy, this was far from the first time Google's “doodles” have caused a digital firestorm.
Politics Buzz The defamed VP-nom may now have a sex tape with Rielle Hunter, says Gawker. Does the Father Of The Year Award come with a free pass to sex rehab?

There is a huge debate raging on Twitter right now on the controversial topic of pink, aka magenta, and whether it is really a color. The anti-magenta camp claims that there is no magenta wavelength on the color spectrum. The pro-magentites respond that “no color exists outside our brain's perception of it,” which is, like, totally deep. We report, you decide: does pink exist??

Shlomo Zand is the author of a bestselling book, “When and How Was the Jewish People Invented,” that argues that Palestinian Arabs are actually the “children of Israel” described in the Old Testament. Obviously this is a controversial idea.
Celebrity Buzz The British bopper has encountered a whirlwind of controversy regarding an interview in which she commented on the media's sensationalism of drug use, claiming that she knows “lots of people that take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work every day, no problem at all.” In response, cokeheads everywhere rejoiced, giving two trembling thumbs up before furiously searching for the drum 'n bass remix to “Smile.”
