10 Things You May Have Missed On TV This Week

Tracie — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 15:00:00 EDT

This week's multimedia compilation of pop culture crap includes the Jerry Lewis telethon, lots of Tyra, and white people rapping.

1.)The Jerry Lewis Telethon
He ages like cheese, becoming saltier, stankier, more intense, and thus more enjoyable.

Also more offensive.

2.) AARP Lapdance

Charo performed Rihanna's "Don't Stop the Music" in the middle of the night during the telethon. I guess the intent was to wake people up. She went out into the crowd to get the audience dancing. When they didn't want to, she would hit them with her vagina.

3.) Tyra's back!

4.) And she wants to teach you stuff.
About menstruation.

How to frown with your eyes.

And how to not like your makeup.

5.) Janice still hates her.
After Tyra's Nightline interview during which she refused to discuss Janice Dickinson, Janice went running to The Insider to respond.

6.) The View returned.
Which is good news for those suffering in the recession.

7.) Kim needs a job.

Her daughter concurs.

8.) Blind-folded musical chairs.

9.) "She ain't messin' with no broke bro."

10.) The La Toya interview tonight will be awesome.
Judging from The Insider's preview of it.

A Stocking Full Of Assorted Goodies For You

· As we gaze at the Bassett Hound literally taking a dump in the middle of the three-way intersection outside the window of Defamer HQ-2 (a Christmas miracle!), we think fondly of Defamer videographer Molly, who is away today. We therefore had no choice but to plunder from the tidily wrapped video gifts beneath the tree of our more affluent cousins over at Jezebel. Look, everyone! It's Charo singing "Feliz Nablahblah" on the Pee-wee's Playhouse Christmas Special!
· 'Tis the season to be breathalyzered: In what is unlikely to be the last celeb DUI of the year, Boy Meets World's Topanga was picked up for drunk driving.

· Still wracking your brains trying to come up for the perfect, last-minute present for the loved one who has everything? How about driving them insane with personalized postcards from an unsigned maniac in a tiny Polish village?
· Is it Christmas?
· What's Jesus's birthday without occasional Defamer guest-contributer Nick Malis's musical ode to the loneliest holiday?
· We plan on spending our Christmas working on our Guitar Hero 3 game, though we have a ways to go until we even approach the insane skill-levels of Conrad the Great. Meanwhile, those of you who don't find Xmas 2008's Most Wanted under your tree this year can still get in on the fun with Handbell Hero.
· Well, that's it, everyone. True, we're Jewish, but in the spirit of inclusionism, we're out of here until Wednesday. All the best to you and yours. Chag Samayach!

Charo Thrills A Margarita-Lit Crowd At El Coyote

Seth — Mon, 07 May 2007 22:39:42 EDT

A quick-thinking Defamer operative frequenting fine local Mexican dining institution El Coyote instantly knew what to do when "coochie coochie"-intoning flamenco guitarist and Surreal Life star Charo thrilled diners by sitting in for an unbilled performance with the house mariachi band: capture it all on shaky cell phone video and send the footage to us (two weeks later, but Charo, like greasy Mexican food and strong margaritas, is timeless) for inclusion in our world class collection of the citizen paparazzi arts. Without further ado, we welcome you to now feast your senses upon the force of nature that is Charo (seen only from the back, but you're just going to have to trust us on this), looking almost as delicious as that opening close-up on a skillet of El Coyote fajitas. Olé!
