Comedian Jim Florentine on The Zaz!
The Zaz busted up into the offices of HBO in New York City’s Bryant Park to have a throw down with comedian Jim Florentine. Florentine, a stand up guru and Crank Yankers standout, talks about his buddies new show “Down and Dirty with Jim Norton“, debuting on HBO this Friday. The show features top comedians such as Andrew Dice Clay and Artie Lange, along with Norton himself as host. Florentine and I use this interview opportunity to set the record straight about penises.

Doesn't Embed. Click on the picture to watch.   Read through the cut to see why he says he's doing it now.

Johnny Rotten stars in butter commercial
LONDON, Oct. 1 (UPI) -- British rock 'n' roll singer Johnny Rotten said he couldn't resist starring in a commercial for Dairy Crest's Country Life butter because it was made for him.

Johnny Rotten For Butter
Johnny Rotten has a new gig hawking butter on tv. If you're a butter lover, eat Country Life, says Rotten. But is Sex Pistol Johnny really just selling out for easy money?? Not even!!Here's Johnny:“I for one am proud to be British and I’m proud to get behind a proper British brand. That’s why I’m supporting Country Life butter."“People know I only do things that I want to or that I believe in and I have to do it my way.  I’ve never done anything like this before and never thought I would

Chic, Iggy and the Stooges, Metallica, Run-DMC: Metallica, Stooges, Run-D.M.C. all in the running for 2009 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions
The yearly list of aging rockers who are up for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has been announced. The museum was famously called a “piss stain” by the Sex Pistols in 2006, and the whole voting process was called into question in 2007, when the Dave Clark Five were refused induction despite garnering more votes than Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Undaunted, the organizers have carried on regardless, stringently sticking to the rule that potential inductees must have rele

Making A Movie Soundtrack: No Old Dudes Invited [The World Does Not Need More Duffy]
If a studio chose to make a film from your novel, I'd imagine you'd be somewhat protective of the final product, down to the musical choices. Then again, if you're a novelist who enjoys albums that came out before the Duffy record, your opinions about the soundtrack will probably be summarily ignored by the people financing the picture. Toby Young, author of How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, wanted to include some of his favorite tracks in the film's soundtrack, but found that his selections o

See Sex Pistols' John Lydon as the face of British butter
The first pictures from Sex Pistols' John Lydon's forthcoming adverts for Country Life butter have emerged.

Never Mind the Butter, Here's The Sex Pistols
Bloc Party and Coldplay fan John Lydon is taking a break from revisionist history (remember, you ripped off Richard Hell, Johnny, not vice versa) to sell Country Life butter. A fitting product tie-in for someone who's gone (always was?) so soft. Surprisingly, it's reportedly the first time he's appeared in a television commercial, because going to board rooms to hawk Guitar Hero III doesn't count. The details: "People know I only do things that I want to or that I believe in and I have to do it my wa

Howard Stern ain’t misbehaving
The Sirius shock jock’s bachelor party was a small affair that started and ended early and didn’t feature a single stripper, one attendee tells Page Six. The 15 stags - including Gary Dell’Abate, Ronnie (The Limo Driver) Munn and other Stern show regulars - toasted their bachelor boss in a private room at Nobu 57 which featured a cake shaped like a microphone. “Artie Lange, who’s on the wagon right now, got there midway through and says, ‘Never in my life did I think I’d be late for a bachelor

Rancid at the Henry Fonda Theater
The punk revivalists in Rancid might look like the Sex Pistols and sound like the Clash, but live, the quartet has more in common with a rap crew. Singer-guitarist Tim Armstrong has a raspy cadence as instantly recognizable as Snoop Dogg's, and the group's lyrics brim with mournful first-person tales of violent street life and ride-'til-we-die paeans to friendship. That visceral street sensibility might be what kept them from the stadium-sized heights of their Bay Area contemporaries in Green Day, even w

The Pretenders Unveil Raw New Songs at In-Store Show in Hollywood
Chrissie Hynde saw a familiar face among the few hundred fans crowding the aisles Monday at the Pretenders’ in-store performance at Amoeba Records in Hollywood. It was Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook, and Hynde waved happily from the small stage, declaring “It’s always good to have the Sex Pistols in the house.” It’s a connection that dates back to her days in England during the punk rock ’70s, when she worked briefly as an expat American rock critic and then began her thr

Who The F**K Does This Guy Think He IS???
Oh yeah. He thinks he's a really rich lingerie maker who's parents are punk rock designer Vivienne Westwood and Sex Pistols manager and SEX co-founder Malcolm McLaren. I guess Joe Corre can pose with Kate Moss and another naked model hanging out if he wants to. This was at Joe's party last night for his company Agent Provacateur. Kate got plastered. Rediculously. I want to see that in person just once in my life. (Photo source, Photo source) Filed Under: Clothes And Stuff Kate Moss Models Rip Naked

New Eagles Of Death Metal Video - "Wannabe In L.A."
Last night I was reading a "Hall Of Fame" piece on Sky Valley in the new Decibel and found myself thinking about Josh Homme's path from Kyuss to Queens of the Stone Age and, well, to this. As mentioned, Eagles Of Death Metal's third studio album Heart On is out later this month. Fresh off their co-headlining tour with the Hives, Josh and Jesse got hold of a digitized pin art toy and put it to song-specific use for the video for Heart's first single "Wannabe In L.A." Remember: That to this. Hear

Levy’s Comedy Club closing in Levittown
Just 10 months after opening, comedian and Howard Stern show regular Rev. Bob Levy has pulled the plug on Levy’s Comedy Club at the Ramada Inn of Levittown. “It would be fair to say the owners of the hotel were very hard for me and my partner to deal with,” Levy wrote in an e-mail about the closing. Levy will be opening two new clubs in New Jersey at the end of October: one at the Hotel Indigo in Baskin Ridge (Somerset County) and one at the Coliseum in Voorhees (Burlington County).

Updates from DJ Am: Travis Home in 2 Weeks
The music producer, Travis Barker’s So So Def clothing line partner, Jermaine Dupri has been speaking out on his on-the-mend friend, saying the former Blink-182 drummer remains positive and is looking forward to leaving the hospital after last week’s fatal plane crash. Dupri visited Barker, who, along with Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein, was critically injured in the incident, at Georgia’s Joseph Still Burn Center on Sunday. “He’s doing good, he’s gonna be all right
