WATCH: Jack White’s Coca-Cola Commercial

Tonight I went to the Clap Your Hands Say Yeah show at Bowery Ballroom. When I wasn’t up front jumping around and dancing with everyone else, I was leaned up against the wall off to the side. It was then that I noticed two people next to the band equipment full-on making out. I couldn’t [...]

It stars Tony winner Patrick Wilson, who I absolutely adore, but he’s playing a child predator and that makes me creeped out. Uh, hopefully this movie doesn’t have any tie-ins with the Hard Candy cosmetic company, which was really [...]
