Scandalist - 8th Sep 2008

Jordin Sparks: It was baller vs. purity baller when Jordin Sparks struck back at Russell Brand after he mocked the Jonas Brothers’ promise rings at the VMAs: “It’s not bad to wear a promise ring, because not everybody, guy or girl, wants to be a slut.” Snap! So where you do stand on the prude vs. slut debate? Are purity rings creepy or classy? Is she being self-righteous or was he being a dick? “F*ck ‘em if they can’t take a joke” or “F*cking is not a joke”? Scandalist just wants to know if she’s planning to launch a line of chastity belts—the market’s wide open (ironically).

He also joked that his goal was to have sex with all three of them by the end of the night. Jordin didn’t think that was funny. Before presenting an award with John Legend, she sai

Jordin Sparks Ef’d Up in a Big Way
Russell Brand, the host of this years MTV Video Music Awards, made fun of the stars who wear “promise rings” who include The Jonas Brothers and apparently, Jordin Sparks. Jordin Sparks obviously didn’t like what she heard, so when she took the stage she informed everyone that she wears a promise ring because not everyone wants to be a slut. I believe in one micro-second slip of the tongue, Jordin did an amazing job of alienating a multitude of teens. Perhaps it was a fleeting lapse in

Jordin Sparks Gets Assy on Russell Brand
Russell Brand, who proved to be one of the most annoying host in VMA history, spent most of his on-air time last night cracking jokes about purity rings. While I enjoy a good virgin joke now and then, the Brit comic turned the awards show into a three-hour virgin joke. During his opening monologue, Brand (a confessed former sex addict) repeatedly joked about the Jonas Brothers’ purity rings, saying they should take advantage of their celeb status to get lucky. “I didn’t meant to take it

newVideoPlayer("/promisering_def.flv", 506, 423,""); While we enjoyed sharing with you the alternately entertaining, excruciating, and utterly discombobulating experience of attending the 2008 VMAs in person, there were moments completely lost on us from our extremely un-VIP vantage point. Take, for example, this off-prompter ad-lib from Jordin Sparks, in which the uncomfortable tension building steadily in Studio 16—Brandian anti-Republicanism and hypersexuality reacting against Jonas Brothers's cal

Jordan Sparks Purity Shows at the VMAs
So if you missed MTV’s 25th annual Video Music Awards on Sunday then you likely missed out on the hosting antics of British Comedian Russell Brand. The “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” star is better known in the U.K. than the U.S. and his humor seemed to hit few attendee’s funny bone. Quips from Brand regarding President George W. Bush like this one: “…I know America to be a forward-thinking country because otherwise why would you have let that retard and cowboy fella be President for eight yea

What Is A Slut? The Ladies Of The View Weigh In [View Askew]
newVideoPlayer("/viewsluts_jez_512K.flv", 475, 376,""); Whereas many adults are all worried about "kids these days" and the supposed over-sexualization of our culture, I'm actually worried about this whole abstinence-only trend being touted by Wal-Mart, evangelical right-wingers, and all these promise-ring proponents. I just think that nothing good can come from being ashamed of natural physical maturation and desires. And I also really hate the idea, expressed by Jordin Sparks last night during the VMAs,

Perez Hilton: A Cautionary Tale
This pains us. Really, it does. The video that we are bringing to you (after the jump) contains disturbing images of a disgusting sloth making out with his dog and farting on camera. Seems Perez Hilton had a little too much champagne at last night's VMAs and felt the urge to ramble about his thoughts. Also, he got a little too excited about Jordin Sparks and lets out a gas explosion. This, ladies and gentlemen, is why you shouldn't drink and vlog. CONTINUED » Sep 8, 2008 &middo
