LMFAO

If you were near any club, radio, mp3 player, or I-turd that played cheesy , safe feux hip-hop this summer, you couldn’t escape LMFAO.    This group, led by DJs  Redfoo  & SkyBlu  (great names for Gatorade Ice flavors, not so much for rappers) lit up the charts with their overplayed single Party Rock Anthem.  Even though the song sounded like a something that belongs in a Zumba fitness informerical, it put LMFAO on the map. Of course,  DJs Redfoo (Stefan Kendal Gordy) & SkyBlu  (Skyler Austen Gordy) probably would’ve gotten there anyway. Why? Possibly because of their biological relations to Berry Gordy.  You know, Berry Gordy, the guy that FOUNDED MOTOWN RECORDS.  I’m going out on a limb to say that LMFAO are not as talented as the Temptations or Supremes.

Also, this isn’t the first time it happened. Rockwell (born Kennedy William Gordy) scored a hit in 1984’s “Somebody’s Watching Me.”  You know the awful song that was only made decent because Michael Freaking Jackson sang the slightly catchy chorus. Gee, I wonder how they got him to do that? Oh yeah, now I remember. His dad INVENTED MOTOWN!

If you didn’t already know, LMFAO comes from text lingo & means “Laughing My F-ing Ass Off.”  Which the Gordy’s kids are doing, at the expense of all unknown (& actually talented) hip-hop groups, with no family connections.

Rooney Mara

In the past few years, the most sought after role in Hollywood was of Lisbeth Salander , the hero of "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo."  While many big movie stars auditioned for the part, producers cast a relative unknown, Rooney Mara, in the coveted role.  Problem is, Mara isn't such an unknown. Not to football fans anyway.  This "actress" is the a great-granddaughter of the founders of two historic N.F.L. franchises--the NY Giants and the Pittsburgh Steelers:  Tim Mara & Art Rooney . (I'm not sure how f*ck she has the name of both grandparents-kinda creepy.)


 The  Mara's & Rooneys still own these teams, which means, of course, Rooney Mara comes from money.  Big money.  Big, I'm really f-ing jealous of money. While the N.F.L. and Hollywood are two different entities, how much would you bet some free corporate box Superbowl seats were sent over to the "Girl" casting director in exchange for Rooney Mara's "audition."


 Girl With The Dragon Tattoo?  More like "Girl Who Won The Sperm Lottery."

Nepotism News

This website will be devoted entirely to highlight cases of nepotism. Why?  To dispel the fantasy that working hard and playing fair is the recipe of success. Unfortunately, 95% of the time,  it's more about a person being born into the right situation, class or social structure. The nepotistic person hasn't earned anything, and even may have some skills, but only got those skills from being educated in the best schools. Some of these people, however, have no skills whatsoever. (Ex. anyone with the last name Kardashian)

This site will expose examples of nepotism on semi-daily basis. Which means, of course, I'll do a lot of shitting on celebrities (which is always fun).  Hopefully you'll enjoy this blog.. If not, you're probably one of those asshole nepotism cases anyway.
