OJ Simpson Press Conference Crashed by Jimmy Kimmel's Jake Byrd

Posted September 20, 2007

You may already know of Jake Byrd. The goofy gatecrasher and Jimmy Kimmel Live regular has been spotted everywhere from Motley Crue's Hollywood Star Ceremony to Paris Hilton's release. But those who didn't already know him got a big dose this week at a press conference by Yale Galanter, OJ Simpson's attorney.

Wearing an "OJ 07" T-Shirt and an "I *Heart* Famous People" hat, Byrd interrupts Gelanter to congratulate him and offer him a high five. He continues to chime in with words of support, stopping only to resort to theatrical facial expressions in the background or -- once -- take a call on his cell phone.

Who is this guy?

Jake Byrd is the alter ego of comedian Anthony Barbieri. He first started fooling fans and major news outlets when he popped up as a "super-fan" during the Michael Jackson trial, managing to convince both the New York Times and Court TV of his legitimacy. His Kimmel segments are titled "Jake Byrd: Celebrity Avenger."

I don't know if all the celebrities Byrd avenges are grateful, but Galanter, at least, seems to appreciate the support. So when's Galanter gonna thank TDR for our High Five?

Andrew Meyer, College Student, Tasered During John Kerry Forum: The Video

University of Florida student Andrew Meyer seems a bit like your typical 21-year-old: young enough to think he knows everything and brash enough to try and prove it. His efforts to get a rise out of Senator John Kerry at this campus forum, peltering the 2004 presidential candidate with questions, are thus the actions of any brash young man. Given that colleges are full of brash young men, though, the University of Florida support staff should be used to dealing with them -- which is why their actions here feel more than a little out of line.

The Gainesville Sun's Kyle Mitchell gets up close and personal with this footage, tracking with Meyer as several security officers drag him away from the microphone and towards the back of the auditorium, where they subdue him, cuff him, and taser him -- all while Meyer shouts, "What did I do?" Perhaps Meyer was being a bit melodramatic, but that's no excuse for tasering a kid in khaki shorts, while he screams "Don't taser me, bro! Don't tase me!" Everyone may be overreacting in this clip -- but not everyone had tasers.

Fall Out Boy Patrick Stump Talks Sniffing Panties for NGTV

Posted September 17, 2007

Actually, Fall Out Boy lead vocalist Patrick Stump only speaks rather briefly about sniffing panties in this segment of NGTV.com's Tour Bus Diaries. And he's only doing it to make a point about women who throw their panties onstage at concerts. He's not writing a song about it or anything. But he does do a bit of demonstrative sniffing, which is fun.

Other topics include the new album, pranks on other bands, free gifts, and why Stump's astonishingly tight jeans aren't as health-threateningly "nut hugging" as you might fear. Well, that's a load off my mind.

No Good TV has carved itself a niche as the online home of uncensored celebrity interviews and videos. Mostly, it's a place for celebs to talk about their upcoming projects while making dirty jokes and saying "fuck" a lot. Which, when you cover everyone from Akon to Andy Dick to the cast of "Hairspray," is pretty fun.

Plus, I think we all learned a little something about throwing our panties onstage.

Sarah and Jeff's Wedding Video: The Horror Movie Remix

Liz Miller
Posted September 13, 2007

How do you make a wedding video to remember? You might not want to ask Paul Jury of Panda Smash that question. Unless, of course, you want to remember your wedding as a blood-chilling terror fiesta. In which case, talk to Paul Jury. I'm sure he has pointers.

Asked by his friends Sarah and Jeff to edit together their wedding footage, Paul set to the task with enthusiasm... Until, that is, he got bored. So, using tricks reminiscent of the West Side Story zombie spoof, he used the raw footage to craft a trailer that will make you cry... with terror.

Paul did edit a much more traditional version for Sarah and Jeff -- one that didn't result in Sarah being called a whore. But I think I prefer the horror take. After all, marriage? Pretty scary stuff.

Catch viral videos first.
