Kristen Stewart walked out on the set of Jon Stewart’s “Daily Show” and the first question out of the comedian’s mouth was “How did you do it.” What the hell was he talking about? Well, it wasn't her cheating scandal with “Snow White and the Huntsman” Director Rupert Sanders, or her miraculous reconciliation with cold-cocked boyfriend Robert Pattinson. He wasn't even talking about her saucy nude scene in “On the Road.” He wanted to know how she could just let loose in the dance scene from her new film....
Springfield’s resident soulless mogul Mr. Burns pauses for reflection on the latest episode of The Simpsons to explain why he’s endorsing Republican candidate Mitt Romney. But first he’s got to explain away a few small problems and one very big problem. It’s hard to believe the hilarious episode aired on the Fox Network, which has been a bastion of right-wing agitprop throughout the election. Nobody captures the essence of a “Fox News” Republican quite like Mr. Burns, the ultimate “vulture” capitalist. So what’s his take on the presidential election?...
Sandra Bullock unloads on talk show host Chelsea Handler in a little girlie one-on-one in the shower. The hilarious clip was used as the cold open for Bullock’s guest appearance on Handler’s show. Did we say hilarious? To say Bullock is “dressing down” Handler would be an understatement. They are both naked. The scene opens with Handler casually strolling into the “Chelsea Lately staff showers” at her studio. She’s in the buff, but her private parts are fully covered by digital blurring… barely....
Olympic champion Ryan Lochte not only wins gold, but he pees gold as well… when he’s a little dehydrated, of course. That’s only one of the stunning revelations he makes about his unique potty behavior. He only pees in pools! Swimmer Michael Phelps may have more medals, but Lochte has emerged as one of the undisputed heartthrobs of the 2012 Summer Games. But will the girls still love him after this?...
Comedian Fred Willard was arrested in an adult theater for buzzing off and he’s making jokes about it on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.” When Pee Wee Herman was busted in 1991 for the same thing, his career was ruined. Have we grown that much more tolerant?...
Kristen Stewart’s tumble from the “Twilight” pedestal of eternal love in real life, not just the movies, has evoked a range of reaction on Twitter the national sounding board. It’s a field day for wits, twits and undying believers in true love. It’s also a devilish blood sport. Stewart admitted cheating on hottest-actor-in-the-world Robert Pattinson, a man so decent and kind-hearted, he was just asking to be kicked in the teeth. As such, the Twitter world is not being so kind to Snow Blight right now....
Jimmy Kimmel has one-upped his late-night talk show rivals with a hilarious bit on hateful Internet Tweets. Here’s the twist.

Kimmel asked Katy Perry, Danny McBride, James Van Der Beek, Zoey Deschanel, Larry King and David Spade and Kristen Stewart among others to read their nasty tweets....
Nina Dobrev puts the bite on people in the Vampire Diaries, and she’s also good a biting satire. She lampoons the beach-going babes in a bizarre Funny or Die! skit, entitled SPF. Oh… she can rap, too. Dobrev, 23, stars with “Perks of Being a Wallflower” actor Nick Braun....
Jon Stewart notes that the Republicans have never forgotten the humiliation of “Watergate.” So far, they’ve tried to hang the label on President Obama at least four times. And he’s fast an furious about it. For those who may not recall the scandal, and that would include just about everyone born after, say, 1970, it forced Republican President Richard Nixon to resign in 1974....
Jon Stewart has a clear perspective on the gay marriage debate. He explained it on his show last night so anyone can get it. What he can’t get is the reaction at Fox News. Stewart noted the momentousness of President Obama’s support for gay marriage....
Kris Humphries was a Kim Kardashian whipping boy on her reality television show and dissed in Kayne West’s song, but he gets the last laugh in a hilarious Funny or Die video. Kim did her level best on last season’s “Kourtney & Kim Take New York” to make her husband of 72-days look like a jerk and a buffoon. The new video plays off Humphries’ image from the show....
Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and other teen celebrities rapidly loading up on tattoos, but Kristen Bell takes the Hollywood fashion statement to an extreme. She does a hilarious spoof on her 214 tattoos, from Chinese symbols to (ugh) tribal bands. The parody, a new Funny or Die sketch, is based on an interview with Bell. She walks the interviewer through her many tattoos, including 72 butterflies, representing each year of Apartheid in South Africa....
First Lady Michelle Obama said she was petty much willing to make a complete fool of herself to promote her “Let’s Move” campaign. So Jimmy Fallon couldn’t help but accept the challenge. He pays a visit to the White House in this hilarious clip. “That part about making a fool of herself to make kids get moving, I connected with that,” Fallon said. “I make of fool of myself every night so I decided to go down there to help the First Lady out.”...
Reese Witherspoon’s sense of humor is like a loaded gun; sometimes it goes off when she least expects it. This time her target was pop sensation Justin Bieber. She questions his manliness… in a very funny way. Witherspoon was being interview on MTV when the conversation drifted to a question about her thoughts on Bieber’s interest in a remake of one of her movies, the 1996 thriller “Fear....
Kristen Bell has always had a secret desire. She’s obsessed with sloths. She finally got her wish for her 31st birthday, and to call it an emotional event would be an understatement. It was also hilarious. Bell, best known for her breakout role as the title character on UPN’s drama “Veronica Mars,” was even funnier recounting the whole experience on the Ellen DeGeneres show....
John Stewart feeds on hypocrisy like a hurricane sucks energy from a warm sea. And Newt Gingrich’s surly response to a debate question about his ex-wife open marriage allegation sent Stewart off the scale....
UK comedian Ricky Gervais has a bug up his ass. The same one he had last year. And, you're going to hear all about it at the Golden Globes Award Show. The Hollywood crowd can stand a little ribbing, he says. But what crowd?...
