Happy couple and new parents Beyonce and Jay-Z have released the first pictures of their new bundle of joy, Blue Ivy Carter. With those big eyes and a full head of hair, she’s already a media darling.

Five photos of the new baby were released on Tumblr – at http://helloblueivycarter.tumblr.com/ – and has a picture of Blue with each happy parent.

According to CBS News, “Beyonce and Jay-Z are the latest celebrities to shun big bucks from the tabloid press for exclusive rights to baby pictures and instead post the photos on a public website for free.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon debuted their twins in the same way last year.”

Jimmy Kimmel likes to issue pranks to his viewers from time to time. The last I saw was his instruction to parents to pretend they had eaten all their kids’ Halloween candy. And he’s at it again.

This time Kimmel asked viewers to pull the plug, turn the TV off, or switch channels at an important moment during the Super Bowl. And record the resulting mess for us all to laugh over, obviously.

I find this video especially hilarious as I do not understand the level of interest some people have in sports. Support a team, fine. Go to a game, fine. But sit around focused on the TV as if life itself depends on it? Sad.

While most of the football fans featured take it well, several resort to violence. And I find that especially saddening. A football game is so important to you that you’re happy to injure someone who interrupts it? Get a life.

One of the best Super Bowl ads this year was Matthew Broderick’s Day Off, a spin on the classic Ferris Bueller’s Day Off movie from 1986. But how do the two compare?

One video editor spent rather too long putting the new ad for the Honda CR-V next to the movie and comparing them shot-for-shot, side-by-side. And the result is fascinating.

This shows the lengths Honda and the advertising firm it hired went to to ensure the ad was accurate and memorable. It doesn’t quite make me want to buy a new car, but it does make me want to watch Ferris Bueller’s Day Off again.

Was this your favorite Super Bowl ad or was there one you preferred watching more?

Maria Menounos proves herself to be a woman of her word when it comes to honoring lost bets as she hosted the show wearing nothing but a Giants coloured bikini.

And she just ruined the body images of thousands of girls by implying that she looked/felt fat in her bikini.

Thank you, Maria. Thank you so much for that.

At least both of the guys smartly didn’t say anything about her comment.

Personally, I don’t really give a rat’s rear end who was playing, who won and who lost their bets, but at least Patriot’s fans have a pretty sight to soothe themselves with.

This video shows Kelly Clarkson singing the U.S. national anthem to open the 2012 Super Bowl between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots.

This performance is either laughable or boring, depending on your tastes. What it most certainly isn’t is good. In any way, shape, or form.

For starters the U.S. national anthem is treated with such reverence, with people looking to the skies and holding their hand to their hearts, that I always end up giggling.

As for Clarkson, she delivered the lines without drama (boring) but then added her own little vocal riffs toward the end (laughable). And all from a woman who was discovered on one of Simon Cowell’s crap talent shows.

Roseanne Barr is officially running to become the Green Party nominee for the 2012 Presidential election. She had joked about it, and most people probably think she’s kidding, but apparently not.

If you were to vote for Barr what would you get? She’s known to be very liberal and keen on green issues. She has also supported the Occupy Wall Street movement from day one.

While I don’t particularly want that loud-mouthed idiot to be President of the United States, it would be amazing to see her elected. Can you imagine the look on the faces of the other candidates? Especially the Republicans.

Let’s be honest, Barr will not become president. She probably won’t even be voted in as the official candidate for the Green Party. But good on her for going through with the laborious process needed to get to this stage.

President Obama recently gave the first virtual interview from the White House, which was broadcast on YouTube and took the form of a Google+ hangout. If you have any interest in politics then it’s definitely worth watching.

Obama is the first U.S. president to truly embrace technology. He did so when he was campaigning to be elected, and has continued to do so throughout his first term in office.

As well as being on Twitter, Facebook, and all the other various social networks out there, Obama has also taken to YouTube to reach out to voters directly.

This video is the full, 50-minute Google+ hangout which sees President Obama answering questions from members of the public. You might not like all his responses, but the mere fact he’s taking part should count for something.

Yep. That Roseanne.

I must admit that this one caught me by surprise because I didn’t know we were talking about the Roseanne from the television show until I started snooping around for videos.

Only then did I realise that I had never known her surname.

Live and learn.

Anyway, Roseanne is running for the Green Party seat, even though she doesn’t expect to win. That smacks of ‘getting some attention for my political party’, ‘I’m bored’, or even both.

Whatever it is, I can’t help but wish her well with it. Though her campaign dreams are certainly a high reach, at least she’s aiming big.

Kristen Bell, better known to some as Sarah from “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” apparently gets worked up over Sloths. Yes, the slowest moving mammals on earth are Kristen’s reason for crying in the video above.

“I wasn’t kidding” she says in this clip on Ellen. I predict a wave of YouTube parodies in the works.

Dax Shepard (formally on the show Punk’d) just doesn’t know when to stop with the pranks- even on his fiancee’s birthday. I can’t blame him for recording the whole freakout, it’s pretty damn funny.

Ellen’s little joke at the end almost makes Kristen just as upset- a little too much estrogen?

This video shows professional psychic debunker James Randi calling out James Hydrick over his so-called ability to move physical objects with just his mind.

If you like seeing someone squirming after realizing he’s been caught out, then you must watch this clip from That’s My Line.

I’m 100 percent of the existence of paranormal activity and psychic powers. We know humans aren’t using their brains to their full capacity, and there is evidence to suggest some people learn how to tap into that, even in a small way.

However, the issue has been muddied by people such as Hydrick who pretend to have special powers in order to gain fame and fortune. Randi is still alive and doing his thing, while Hydrick admitted his act was all a fraud years later.

Bald men around the world salute the one, the only, the legend: Patrick Stewart.

Alan Davies, Liam Neeson and Patrick Stewart all on the Graham Norton show? Now I have to see this.

I love Patrick Stewart’s voice more than his shiny head, but I have to admit that he really does rock the dome like no one else.

Well, Bruce Willis does a pretty damn good job as well, but we will just stick with Stewart for the moment.

How strange, though, to have gone bald when you’re so young and to have lost it so suddenly. One of those weird things…

With all those damn gum commercials, I forget that Shaun White is actually still a really good snowboarder. Never in the history of The X Games has a snowboarder received a 100- a perfect score!

Here’s the clip of the amazing run. Some say that the judging is biased due to White’s fame, but you can’t deny that it’s worthy of a gold medal.

White pulled out of Slopestyle due to an ankle injury. It proved to be a good decision in the long run because his performance during the X Games was incredible. His first run was a 94, and he did this run while still in 1st place.

STRIDE is going to sell the hell out of that flavor today.

This video may only be 10-seconds-long, but it has caused a sensation on social networks. Could we be about to see Ferris Bueller’s Day Off 2 announced? It isn’t likely. Instead, it’s probably just a teaser for a Super Bowl ad.

I guess it’s possible there will be a new Ferris Bueller movie, but I really can’t see it being so. Why would they tease it in this way? And if it had been shot already we’d know about it.

No. All this will be is Broderick reprising his role as Ferris Bueller for an ad of some kind. Which is fine. If they have thrown a budget at it and concocted a good story then that’ll do me.

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off 2 would be crap anyway. John Hughes is no longer with us, and Broderick is 50-years-old.

Bill Maher is usually a guy I look up to when it comes to being a skeptic. His film Religious was a great documentary in my opinion. Still, it turns out that someone who questions organized religion doesn’t necessarily question the US government on piracy issues.

I’m glad the guests in this clip were there to set him straight.

While he admits to not knowing all the facts when it comes to the SOPA bill, I’m surprised he has such a strong opinion about opposing it. Sure, it’s perfectly reasonable to get upset about losing money on a film you made, but you have to also take into account that the industry is changing.

Oh, Bill, can’t you see that making money off of DVD sales is a dying way of generating revenue from movies? Next time come up with a better marketing and distribution strategy that embraces new technology.

When I think of Wheel Of Fortune, I usually think good ‘ol boring clean family fun. It’s often a show that I groan at whenever my grandma decides to watch it.

But what you’ll be surprised to hear in this interview is Pat Sajak happily admitting to being drunk while hosting the show in it’s early days!

I always knew cheesy gameshow hosts, especially ones that last for decades, couldn’t really be as boring as they appear on TV. “It was a different show back then” Pat admits- he and Vanna would down up to “6″ margaritas during their long breaks.

By the time they came back, they would often have trouble “recognizing the alphabet!”

Be it seizure, stress, eating disorder, drug abuse or all of the above, Demi Moore is seeking professional help after being admitted to hospital.

At least she seems to be taking her exhaustion – and everything that contributed to her being in that state – seriously, having dropped out of an upcoming film.

I don’t know that anyone is really going to be all that surprised about this. Going through divorce is never easy, and celebrities have access to a lot more things to take their pain away.

Let’s just hope that she takes the time off to rest and recollect herself before stepping into the spotlight again.

Spike Lee is back directing, with new film Red Hook Summer having premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. This video shows On Native Ground interviewing the cast and crew behind Red Hook Summer on the red carpet.

Spike Lee is a legendary director responsible for great movies which are also important in the social commentary they provide. However, his recent flicks haven’t lived up to his usual standards.

A lot of people are saying Red Hook Summer is a return to form for Lee. But not everyone agrees. I’ve read some woeful reviews of the movie, which complain at the distinct lack of a cohesive storyline.

As usual with Spike Lee movies, Red Hook Summer won’t be for everyone. But those who like it will probably love it. Either way these interviews are great.

Tracy Morgan clearly isn’t a well man. The 30 Rock actor recently collapsed after an awards ceremony and was rushed to hospital.

Just before his collapse Morgan had received an award from the Creative Coalition at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Park City has an elevation of 7,000 feet.

Morgan was diagnosed with diabetes in 1996, but refused to change his lifestyle in order to ease the condition. Then in 2010, Morgan received a kidney transplant.

The hospital has unequivocally stated that no drugs or alcohol was found in Morgan’s system. Instead his collapse is being blamed on a combination of exhaustion and altitude sickness.

When you’re the President of the United States of America you can pretty much do what you want. But that doesn’t mean you necessarily should do.

Are you listening, President Obama?

Taking to the stage at a campaign fundraiser, President Obama referenced Al Green in the audience, and then proceeded to sing a couple of lines from his classic song, Let’s Stay Together. Oh dear.

OK, so he didn’t do a bad job of it really. But still. This is the President of the United States of America, and I don’t really want to see him serenading a crowd of rich people in order to garner donations.

The choice of song obviously had meaning though. For “Let’s Stay Together,” read “Please don’t vote me out!”

Here’s a tip for all of you, especially if you regularly appear on television: If you don’t know the meaning of something, don’t blithely blurt it out in front of millions of viewers.

This is BBC weather girl Carol Kirkwood, who is clearly an innocent flower who doesn’t get out much. While preparing to tell us the weather at the end of last year, she inadvertently said something very rude.

It was a wet day, you see, and she happened to mention live on air that someone had tweeted describing it as “wetter than an otter’s pocket.” Think about that for just a second…

… there you go. It’s a euphemism for a lady’s privates, as anyone who picks up on innuendo (such as I do) could have told her without a second’s thought. Unfortunately the BBC crew must be wetter behind the ears than an otter’s pocket.
