Kobe Bryant's still explaining the pathway to success using the Kobe System, breaking down each ascending level. The most recent to lessons: adaption and perception. "You're welcome."

Aziz Ansari is obsessed with becoming the #1 comic in the world, and it seems like he believes the best way to achieve 'trill swag' status is by bronoodling with rappers. His bromance with LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy has been 'well-documented' [ link ], but his relationship with Kanye West and Jay-Z has helped his career even more. Basically, he is doing the 'zany comic relief' in swag videos that people like Chris Tucker used 2 do. I guess it's probably what Chris Rock would've had to be doing if he was [...]

The Internet has found itself a new ally in its ongoing fight against SOPA and PIPA. As Billboard reports, Trent Reznor, MGMT, The Lonely Island, Nada Surf's Daniel Lorca, and OK Go have all co-signed an open letter to Congress expressing their opposition to the legislation. The letter was also signed by comedian Aziz Ansari, fillmaker Lloyd Kaufman, MythBusters ' Adam Savage, and other members of the entertainment industry. "We fear that the broad new enforcement powers provided under SOPA and PIPA could be easily abused against legitimate services [...]

"Where do you go from the top? You go over the top." Let's give Kobe Bryant a round of applause. The man's had one of hell of a week on [...]

Gotty™ already told you the new Kobe VII System is way more than a pair of shoes. But, if G-Money wasn't convincing enough of their ability to leave you leaping [...]

Parks & Recreation star and professional funny motherfucker Aziz Ansari has ascended to the level of fame where he gets to be friends with Jay-Z and Kanye West; that's him, after all, in the "Otis" video . But he's also very much a dorked-out fan, as the graphic below should make clear. During some recent burst of creativity, Ansari and buddy Matthew Shawver recently recreated all of Jay and Kanye's world-conquering anthem "Niggas In Paris" on the emoticon template Emojis . It's like a monument to the overabundance of spare time. Check it out below. [...]

There was some article in GQ about a hang sesh in Japan with Aziz Ansari , James Murphy, and David Chang. Apparently, David Chang is a 'famous chef', who basically invented the high-end Chili's or something. GQ basically funded a trip with 3 geniuses of music, comedy, and food. Not sure if it was really THAT interesting, but at least they got a free trip out of it. [...]

'SNL,' Andy Samberg Sued By Producers Over 'Like A Boss' [MTV] The Rise and Stall of Pac Div [LA Weekly] Aziz Ansari Bored On A Flight With Wi-Fi + Twitter [...]

Aziz Ansari is an alt comedian who every1 is all like 'he's the next big thing', except he kinda already had his 'breakout year', but then he never really capitalized on it, and he is sort of stuck being 'niche famous' with the rest of the unfunny ppl in the NBC Thursday Night comedy club. Anyways, he has been waiting for his moment to become 'the greatest standup comedian' in the world, but I'm not sure if that ever really gained any traction. He's gonna be stuck settling for 'making ppl who watch Hulu' giggle in front [...]

2011 New Yorker Festival After a couple fallow years (IMHO), the New Yorker Festival has come back this year with a vengeance. I imagine there will be quite a few hot tickets this year, including the likes of: The National, St. Vincent, Scissor Sisters, Frank Gehry, Nancy Pelosi, The Moth: Tales Out of School 3, Steve Martin, Zach Galifianakis, Aziz Ansari, Amy Poehler, Owen Wilson, Chris Colfer, Laura Dern, Edie Falco, William H. Macy, Jeremy Irons, Ellen Barkin, Nancy Pelosi and David Cronenberg . That list, of [...]

Jay & Kanye's new video has everything... even a four second mini-cameo from Aziz Ansari.

One of the biggest reactions from last night's premiere of Kanye & Jay's "Otis" video would have to be "they f*cking cut up a Maybach," perhaps a symbol of the seemingly gratuitous nature for which Watch The Throne has been criticized. Alas, The Throne prove themselves to be wiser than us, their subjects, as the dismantled vehicle will now be auctioned off to benefit efforts to feed starving children and families in the Horn of Africa. While I highly doubt the car will fetch the $280K sticker price, the auction should [...]

Jay-Z and Kanye West have unleashed the video for "Otis" and like the song, there is plenty of bravado going around. I did enjoy the fact, that I have never seen Hova and Ye, this lighthearted ever before. They seem like they are genuinely having fun, blowing up cars, rapping in front of flames, hanging with models, and well each other. Be on the lookout, for a hillarious 3 second cameo from Aziz Ansari. Anyway someone can get me a spot in that doorless vehicle? Jay-Z and Kanye West [...]

Directed by Spike Jonez and features a cameo appearance by Aziz Ansari.

30 Minutes or Less is an action comedy about a pair of redneck buffoon assholes, played by Danny McBride and Nick Swardson, who strap a bomb to the chest of a pizza boy, played by Danny Eisenberg, and force him a rob a bank on their behalf, lest he be blown up. (The pizza boy's [...]

Eminem closed Bonnaroo's 3rd day, which had kicked off with hip-hop heavy hitters Lil Wayne and Big Boi in the early hours and also hosted Wiz Khalifa in the late afternoon. Buffalo Springfield's headline set on the Which Stage overlapped with Shady's, making a joint cover of "He Got Game" an impossibility. Next time! Photographer Randy Cremean also shot Black Keys, !!!, Man Man, Mumford And Sons, Scissor Sisters, and more. Check it out.

As we've repeatedly touted, Bonnaroo isn't just about all the great bands that are playing amongst the tents and stages. There are a plethora of activities to keep you busy while you wait to see your favorite act. For all those cinephiles out there the Cinema Tent will once again be offering up 24 hours a day of programming running from Thursday afternoon through Sunday night. This year's highlights include special screenings of 30 Minutes Or Less and Garden State, which will feature a Q&A session with Aziz Ansari and Zach Braff afterwords, respectively. [...]

Fresh off his pokerfaced portrayal of the man who reshaped social networking, Jesse Eisenberg moves to the opposite end of the spectrum for 30 Minutes Or Less , a comedy by Zombieland director Ruben Fleischer. Eisenberg plays Nick, an unlucky schmuck who gets forced to rob a bank by two masked gorillas, one of which is played by Danny McBride. Paired up with funnyman Aziz Ansari as his best pal, the monkeys give Nick a simple sort of orders: "Run into a bank with a bomb and take all the money, and then leave [...]
