"Sorry everyone, everything you are reading (other then we are shooting in Philly) is false," he wrote in a message-board forum after an open audition call yielded rampant story and script speculation. "We are going to give so much disinformation on this film to confuse everyone."

Well, then! That showed us. We applaud Bay's typically unique, senseless approach, which has even his loyal fans scratching their heads over the point of why Bay would bother to announce he's lying in the first place. We're all for taking this to its logical end point, however, where the flaxen-haired fauxter reveals the entire Transformers franchise is a hoax — in which case we could all give robust thanks and even sworn Bay enemy Uwe Boll would have to retract that "fucking retard" accusation he leveled so forcefully in recent weeks. We think we can all agree it's a small price to pay under the circumstances.

And here we thought The Martha Stewart Show was the only place to tune for a slice of darkly awkward pie: Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe popped by The Rachael Ray Show today to discuss the always-appetizing topic of roadkill removal. It was clearly a sensitive subject for the home-cooking guru, who soon admitted to a past littered with vehicular critterslaughter. Nothing, however, could have prepared the audience for the conscience-clearing admission that was to come, a tale so shocking it was immediately met with an audible gasp from the studio audience, followed by a sneaking suspicion that the secret ingredient in her signature Meaty Mac n' Cheese might not be "lean ground beef" as the recipe officially calls for. The chilling confession after the jump.
