Horrible Bosses star Jason Sudeikis gets R rated and talks the war on Bieber

July 6th, 2011

Jason Sudeikis has had a run over the past couple of years that most comedians dream about. Moving from series writer to cast member, Sudeikis has become a regular on Saturday Night Live, perfecting bang-on impressions of American Idol’s Tyler Hicks and somehow making ‘What’s Up With’ hilarious with simply a track suit and some sweet dance moves. With supporting roles in 2010′s The Bounty Hunter and Going The Distance, 2011 has now become the year of Sudeikis. Stepping up to the front of the movie poster in the Farrelly brothers’ Hall Pass and most recently, in the star-studded comedy Horrible Bosses, Sudeikis is quickly being a household name in the comedy game.

Nelly brings the STL to the T. Dot

March 25th, 2011

Few artists have made an impact so great on music that a style of sound is credited to their work, but that’s just what Nelly has done. After playing local hip hop clubs in and around his hometown of University City for years with his band, the St. Lunatics, the group got their big break with 2000′s Country Grammar. The Lunatics and Nelly did what few had done before them – made the world sit up and take notice of the St. Louis music scene. Creating a sing-song rapping style Nelly was offered a record deal as solo artist with Universal, which he accepted, as long as the Lunatics were signed with him. That was eleven years, six albums, two American Music Award, 3 Grammy’s and 1 CMT, yes, Country Music Award, ago.

In addition to clothing removal we talked to rock’s best new band about their Oasis connection, including a special message from Liam Gallagher to Momsen, their new album Light Me Up, the meaning behind their album cover and of course, we snuck a lil Gossip Girl in for all you Jenny Humphrey fans.
