The Good

?uestlove inherits Jimmy Fallon’s dynasty in Downton Sixby

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon? Downtown Sixby gives you an inside peek the talk show host’s life offstage, where cue card valets come up with hilarious Kardashian jokes, hirsute daughters look for love, and Roots drummers stand to inherit the Fallon dynasty.

Flight of the Conchords reunite for charity

It’s business time again for Flight of the Conchords. The New Zealand duo have reunited to pen a charity single for Cure Kids called Feel Inside (And Stuff Like That). Check out the lyric video below to hear how robbing robbers and feta cheese just might be the solution to it all.

Stephen Hawking and Orbital rock the Paralympics

We loved this performance by U.K. dance duo Orbital for this year’s Paralympics opening ceremony. In addition to recruiting amazing, special needs musicians to perform, the band got none other than Stephen Hawking up on stage to add his electronic vocals to the mix. Check out the performance below.

The Bad

DMX and Reading Rainbow don’t mix

Some genius mashed up Reading Rainbow and DMX, and the result is completely ridiculous, and probably NSFW. We think the Ruff Ryders rapper should leave this tune to Jim Morrison.

The Ugly

Elvis’s stained undies up for auction

A pair of soiled undies belonging to Elvis will go up for auction this week in Manchester. By the looks of them, the King wasn’t into laundering his undergarments, nor was he adverse to urinating in them. Crazed idolaters and other sundry sickos, have at it. We’ll be sitting this one out.

Rihannna and Joan Rivers get into it on Twitter

After Rihanna ˜fessed to still loving her ex, Chris Brown, Joan Rivers took to Twitter to lambast the pop star, tweeting, IDIOT! Now it’s my turn to slap her. RiRi responded with a tweet about Rivers being old and getting dementia, which she quickly deleted. Then Kelly Osbourne jumped in. Read all about it here.
