Wiz Khalifa Rolls Up.
Wiz Khalifa in Interview magazine.
On what he thinks make him stand out: “I just worked really, really hard to stay in people’s faces, so it would be hard to forget about me. I’m just trying to stay popular and do the same thing over and over. I think that consistency kind of makes what I do gravitate towards becoming a movement. Honestly, I’m just consumed by the work. Everyday, I’m trying to come up with new stuff and do new things. I don’t take time off. I’m always recording and working on my brand beyond just the music. I just try to keep that connection to normalcy.”
On why he chose to live in Pittsburgh: “There are a lot of different types of people in Pittsburgh. There are a lot of different things going on as far as art and the communities. There’s pop, there’s rap, there’s everything. There is also the darker, street side to Pittsburgh, but I just choose not to elaborate on that. What I bring is more fun and positive—an outside, worldly feel. But being from Pittsburgh, you have room to make up your own sound. People don’t have expectations. We’re not as East Coast in Pittsburgh as people are in Philly, so our vibe is just a little bit different. We’re a little bit more country, more Midwest in general.”
On his tattoos: “I started getting tattoos when I was, like, 16—that’s when I got my first one. My mom actually took me to go get it. I got it on my left arm. It’s the name of the first rap group that I was in.”

Jo Bro's Luv Them Some Mel Gibson.
This is actually pretty hilarious. Maybe the Jonas Brothers are OK.

Megan Fox Screen Test.
These are amazing. I found these and didn't leave youtube for about a day. The NYT does these "screen test" interviews with actors and actresses, and I poured through them. Check out the James Franco and Joseph Gordon-Levitt ones if you have time. Really good.
Speaking of good- also check out the Matthew Goode one. He kind of thinks he's awesome. Maybe it's just me, but he was drinking tea throughout the entire thing. He was the only person I saw to do that. How very English of him.
Oddly enough, the swamp thang doesn't really bother me so much in this. There is a lot of hair swishing, but nothing too horrible and she doesn't sound too terribly annoying. Weird. Notice the reference to "Holiday in the Sun". Also we finally find out how the Marilyn Monroe tattoo happened.
And I also go places with cat hair all over me. Mostly because Mona is a deviant who gets her kicks out of rubbing herself all over my clothing. It's cool because I get my kicks from pushing her off various counters and furniture. It's how we bond. The point being...Megan Fox and I have something in common? Spit take that's shocking.

Best Coldplay Interview EVER.
Theo and I needed a place to put this, we keep losing it in the black hole that is my Youtube favorites.

YouTube should really let Court search. It's crazy. This is the other part of the video.
