Every now and again a rapper pops-up on the scene, becomes popular and sets the bar so low that the next act would have to be paper-thin to get through. The latest one-dimensional contender to limbo under this ever-shrinking Hip-Pop bar is Kodak Black (real name Dieuson Octave) […]
Jason Clarke is a weird-looking actor. His dishevelled appearance and angular facial features are either distracting or just unappealing to look at. It’s not like he’s a brilliant character actor – he’s no Jeffrey Wright or Philip Seymor Hoffman for example – Jason Clarke is a middling performer, […]
Katherine Waterston is a strange-looking actor. With her forgettable looks and repetitive performances, all I can recall after watching a few of her films is her small, dimpled chin and her unvarying acting. If you ever watch one of her movies, you’ll note that Waterston usually looks forlorn […]
Remember when Riff Raff showed up on the scene wearing cornrows and gold teeth? He looked like a culture-appropriating joke; part caricature, part racist stereotype, the whole look was embarrassing to say the least. A white artist trying oh so hard to look “black” is embarrassing enough but […]
Recently, I had the decorators in (no, not a euphemism, actual decorators) and the one thing that I always notice when there’s workmen around (particularly plumbers, electricians, and painters) is that they all seem to listen to BBC Radio 2 as they work. So, since I’ve been forced […]
If you like to watch crap films, especially sequels, then you’ll probably know who Ruby Rose is. This model turned actor can usually be seen pouting in the background of many a substandard movie, almost like a clueless extra channelling Derek Zoolander’s “Blue Steel”. You may have noticed […]
If Maths teachers constantly shouted at and belittled their students, would they keep their job? So why do Physical Education teachers get away with it? From my experience as a young child and then later as a teenager, every single P.E. teacher that I came across was woefully […]
Every few years a certain rapper becomes the figurehead for the ongoing downfall of Hip-Hop. In the past this honour has been bestowed upon artists such as Lil Wayne and Chief Keef and now this anti-accolade passes to Lil Yachty, a rapper-slash-singer from Atlanta who makes ultra-dumbed-down, auto-tuned, […]
Remember when ‘Top Gear’ was a genuine programme about cars, geared towards people who were keen on err.. cars? Remember when the presenters were actually interested, not to mention qualified in various aspects of motoring? There was Quentin Wilson a former used car dealer, former Formula One driver […]
If Kristen Wiig is the face of contemporary comedy, then what a bland face it is. Kristen is one of the most dullest, most mediocre comedians working today, and her style which is a mixture of timid and tedious lacks any kind of star quality. American comedians rise […]
During the late nineties when reality shows like “Big Brother” and “Pop Idol” increased in popularity, members of the public began saying “I want to be famous for nothing” rather than “I want to be the best at something” and this desire for undeserved fame slowly supplanted the […]
Leigh Francis seems to be the type of comedian who masks his sexism and racism behind various cartoonish characters including that of “Keith Lemon”. Judging from his continual one-dimentional comedy however, it’s conveniently impossible to tell where Leigh Francis ends and Keith Lemon begins. Even as far back […]
Drake is an example of how mediocre mainstream Hip-Hop has become. This middle class, middle-of-the-road Rapper has been annoying us with his poor-ass delivery and whiny, horrisonant voice since the lame “Over” and he’s been inflicting the airwaves with his horrid singing since “Find Your Love”. The track […]
