Beck’s website has been filled with random neat things lately! It seems like every time I visit it there’s a new surprise waiting for me!

First there was the Record Club, were Beck and his friends covered songs without rehearsing them, releasing a new video/song every week. Here is the most recent one, Femme Fatal.

Record Club: Velvet Underground & Nico “Femme Fatale” from Beck Hansen on Vimeo.

So great right?

Thursday News! Whoohooo!

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

As I said RPratz is completely fine, but I don’t think he would complain with some time in the hospital. Guy never gets any quiet time.

* I need one of these hats.

* Mariah Carey in a London West End musical? On stage? Hm!

* Bruno (aka Sacha Baron Cohen) is naked on the cover of GQ this month. Who did it better, him or Jennifer Aniston?

* Lauren Conrad, who is currently touring with her book “L.A. Candy”, is saying that the apology with Spencer never happened. Apparently the phone wasn’t even connected? I’m sorry but don’t we all know by now that most of The Hills is fake? I mean I love The Hills, but I’m not surprised by this. You?

* Wish I was part of Beck’s club! I feel so left out! :(

* So You Think You Can Dance Canada choreographer Stacey Tookey’s contemporary routine last night was a hit with the judges! Yay Canada!

* If you trust me and want to listen to a stream of my favorite new album, the click here, and listen to Dirty Projector’s “Bitte Orca”. I’ve been listening to it on repeat.
