Lady the Horse

The lady impersonating a horse doesn't make the cut for the Tosh.0 Preakness.

FANS OF ENGLISH MEN, THIS ONE S FOR YOU Hugh Grant put on his best, most Britishly-cut suit to testify in Court today on charges that the English tabloid press hacked into his phone. Those of you praying for another installment of Notting Hill or Bridget Jones can find a certain comfort in the following clips of Hugh discussing details of his own personal life. Sure, it s not the most hilarious work he s ever done but he does say the word plummy voiced like 11 times along with flirting with a charming married middle-aged lady over the miracles of Marmite. The real thing to note here is just how Briiiiiitiiiiiiiiish this video is. It s fantastic. Dear Hugh, if you ever need another plummy-voiced young lady (who laughs kind of like a horse a plummy-voiced horse) do not hez to pick up a pho-pho and ring me. Ahead, yet more footage of Hugh discussing how the press invaded his life (more )

Sometimes, Youtube really outdoes itself with their related videos section. You see, this morning we received an e-mail from a coworker, whose father sent him the following video featuring something we never even knew existed: Horse Dancing! (Or is it prancing?) This little filly busts a hoof to jazzy MIDI-file versions of Lady Marmalade and Lionel Richie s Hello , plus a bevvy of other tunes. And the fact that the announcers also have a mild orgasm during the performance only enhances its hilarity. Yes, it s 6:30 minutes long, but worth every second of your time: Not soon after watching it for the 4th time did I notice a related video, intriguingly titled Patches: The Coolest Horse . How cool is Patches? Let s just say this horse answers the phone and tucks himself in. answers. the. phone. and. tucks. himself. in. Sure, his owners drive a car covered in sh*t and feed their horse cow meat (which seems oddly perverted), but they also gave Patches his very own bedroom! Aww. Must See Video after the jump. (more )

Today is a beautiful day. Full of light. Why? Because today is the day that my friends at Videogum posted this video. It is a music video for a song called Shine by Chris Dane Owens, and it is easily my new favorite thing - and will probably remain my favorite thing until the day I die. First of all - and I am not typing this with even an ounce of irony - I really love this song. Anyone who knows me will tell you that this type of song is my jams. But the video? THE VIDEO! It s f*cking INCREDIBLE I have no IDEA what is going on here, but it s a goddamn epic. For those of you who can t watch video, here s the basic plot (as far as I can tell): It s a time of darkness, and a time of light, and then the crusade begins. A knight (Chris Dane Owens with a moustache and tiny goatee), rides a horse and finds his Wiccan lady friend, in a cape of course. Random viking ship. Chris jams on his green guitar, and throws his sword around in a shower of sparkles. (more )

Eliza Doolittle (Audrey Hepburn) gets a bit too caught up in the horse race.

But, if it is easy to satisfy his first need winning the heart of the distant belle is a horse of another color. Two teenage schoolgirls get to know each other on the Internet. Soon they fall in love.
