The smoking hot guys from The Wanted performed an acoustic cover of “I Found You” during ANDPOP’s LIVE interview with them. They’re amazing artists in the studio but they proved they can put on a wicked acoustic show too.
As always, the guys let loose while performing — clapping to the beat, laughing with each other and fooling around. Especially little Nathan, who stole the show.

Whenever the so-called “Kristmas Kard” for the Kardashian family comes out I’m all “And I care because?!” But another other part of me (hidden way down in a dark place) is like “Okay, screw it, show it to me.”
The 2012 card includes a few more members of the family, including Kourtney and Scott’s new baby girl Penelope and Kim Kardashian’s white Persian kitten Mercy. Sadly, the cat died at four months old this December because of stomach problems so the card is somewhat of a memorial.
The card is as light and cheerful as New Years Eve, as they sip on champagne while confetti streams behind them.
Last month, Khloe Kardashian went on Ellen and told her the whole family can never get together for one sitting, which is why they often take their photos separately.
What do you think of the card. Would you rather get this one in the mail or Honey Boo Boo’s holiday card? (See it after the jump.) Read more…
The holiday season is NOT about fighting but Christmas and Hanukkah just couldn’t help themselves in this sketch by CollegeHumor.
The two holidays go head to head with weapons like pine needles, Black Friday, gelt guns and dreidel. Christmas originally knocked Hanukkah down with “Christmas morning” but it didn’t stick because of the “miracle save” card. I nearly thought Hanukkah had this one with “Jewish Guilt” but it ended up backfiring so no real winner was announced.
Choose your own victor under the comments! I’m going with the apathetic answer, Chrismukkah!

While we’re used to upbeat, cheery movies around the Christmas season, this year we’re being treated to two films that are on the bleaker side: Les Misérables and Django Unchained.
Two stars of those movies, Anne Hathaway (Les Mis) and Samuel L. Jackson (Django) got a little competitive over just which one was more sad. Sh*t gets real when the two actors have a sad-off.
While they indulge in typical holiday activities, like making a gingerbread house and decorating the tree, they argue over poverty, death and slavery.
There’s no winner in this competition because they ultimately come to the conclusion that their silly competition is wrong and doesn’t capture the Christmas spirit. “Christmas is about bringing people together,” says Jackson, “like prostitution does.”
“Nothing says Christmas like slaves and whores,” Hathaway adds thoughtfully.
The Funny or Die sketch really reminds you of the true meaning of the holidays.
Christmas is a time of love, friendship, family and giving back. It’s also a time of receiving horrible presents. That’s why when someone gifts you a lousy pair of socks or an irrelevant coin sorter machine it’s important to master that expression of complete shock and awe.
You know like, “That’s just what I wanted! How did you know?!”
Jimmy Kimmel’s team approached streeters and asked them how to pretend to like a lousy holiday gift. While a couple of them mastered a believable reaction, the others fell into two categories; They either over-exaggerated their reactions or went a little too droll.
Still, when it comes down to it, Christmas isn’t about presents. It’s the thought that counts!

To celebrate a year in videos, YouTube invited some of their favourite stars to be in a mashup of 2012′s most culturally defining moments. Can you spot all the references?
The Peter Furia-directed video called “Rewind YouTube Style” includes Psy, Walk off the Earth, the dude from Sh*t Girls Say , Jenna Marbles and way more. If you move your mouse around the screen you’ll find highlighted links to each person’s most notable video. We’ve been waiting for it ever since Psy tweeted this pic of him with the Walk off the Earth gang.
Psy’s “Gangnam Style” and Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” — two of the most memorable songs of the year — are mashed together over the video.
What was your favourite moment of the year?

This guy did salvia and ended up talking like a high-pitched Pingu the penguin for almost three minutes. His friends looked slightly embarrassed for him in that “he’s doing it wrong” way. Now, it’s on the Internet for EVERYONE to see.
Every rap battle benefits from a good hype man who riles up the crowd and gets everyone excited. But sometimes, the so-called “rap battle hype man” goes a little too far with his sidekick duties. Instead of drawing attention to the amazing rap, he distracts everyone with his excessive shouts and blasts of encouragement.
This rap battle between Young Steady and K-Kendle at the iBattle Worldwide showcases one of those obnoxious henchmen. While the people in the crowd nod along with him at first, you can tell they start to get annoyed at his droning cat shrieks by the end.

If you have a cold black heart, there’s no way it can survive after watching this video of cute huskies playing in a Winter Wonderland. The holiday message from PETSAMI features the puppies in Santa Claus hats and reindeer antlers playing on snow cotton ball covered presents and gift boxes.
After a long day of ripping apart stuffing and garland, it’s time to wrap up in a cozy stocking for a few Zzz’s. ADORBZ.

There’s a problem with the Christmas lights in Brighton England. Apparently, a disgruntled electrician decided to shake things up by designing the family displays at Churchill Square and Western Road to be completely sexual. The well thought out installation included genitals, the message “buy more shit” and a Santa getting some sort of… well, job.
Although the video is hilarious, it’s actually a clever spoof created to make people laugh over the holidays. Job well done!

This cat, inexplicably named “The Peefus,” makes funny noises when being petted. It’s a strange combination of relaxed purring and painful gurgling. While it’s adorable, one YouTuber suggested the cat actually might have an allergy. The Internet cracks a case again!

These kids were trying their darndest to perform their choreographed routine to the Christmas classic “The Twelve Days of Christmas” at their school recital, but they just couldn’t get it right. Each of the kids were showing off their impressive numerical skills by holding up signs counting down the numbers in the song.
Unfortunately, one adorable kids wants to hold his sign up when it’s not his turn, much to the chagrin of the person standing next to him, who is clearly dealing with amateurs. His friends try to help him — to make him see — but he just can’t hold his sign up at the right time or perform the proper arm extension. Although he tried, I think his teacher is going to save him for number one next year, which requires less countingskills.
Tommy Woolridge has never been on a real date so he decided to go on some spontaneous blind dates without inviting any girls in advance. Naturally, the awkwardness we’ve come to know and love in the YouTube star seeps out, as he approaches random girls reading in parks and presents them with a single red rose.
The girls don’t realize it’s a prank and think the whole thing is either a mixup or that the dude is a major CREEP. Either way, most of them are pretty embarrassed for him. Previously, Woolridge attempted to use Taylor Swift and Blink 182 lyrics as pick-up lines.
So far, he hasn’t met his soulmate through his YouTube pranks, but he might want to consider one of his top commenters as a suitor:
How would you react if some random dude approached you and said you had a blind date?

Steve-O shared his BEST STORY EVER on Canada’s television talk show The Hour, retelling that time he got medical attention from Mike Tyson and a Kung-Fu instructor.
They were filming a bit called “BB Gun Nipple Piercing” and the Jackass star was super stoked because the pellet stayed in his nipple. All of a sudden, skateboarder Bam Margera snuck up behind him and punched him in the face for absolutely no reason at all, badly breaking his nose.
He went to a surgeon but the doctor insisted his nose healed that way and he’d have to re-break it in order to straighten it. A year later, he showed up at the Charlie Sheen Roast with his crooked nose. He talked Mike Tyson into holding his fist out with his arm locked and then ran forcefully across the stage and dove into Tyson’s fist.
All of a sudden, a kung-fu instructor came on stage and said Steve-O needed his nose to be set, assuring him that he’d done it many times before. Steve-O put his trust in the dude and he ended up fixing it.
“I got better cosmetic surgery done at the hands of Mike Tyson and a kung-fu weirdo than any doctor probably ever could have given me,” he said.
If Steve-O ever has grandkids, he’s going to have the most wicked stories EVER. “Gather round the fireplace children, has grandpa ever told you about the time he got choked thirteen times in a day or set his hair on fire or got medical attention from a kung-fu intructor?

There are really no words to describe this video, other than to say I snort laughed. I don’t know what the hell I just watched. All I know is I got to the weird part of the Internet and I’m both scared and confused.
This is the most touching ode to a feline I’ve ever seen. These two choir boys basically sang the Meow Mix theme song and could hardly keep a straight face while doing it. If the Internet ever made an official glee club, it would probably sing songs like this.
This is what you call a volleyball killing spree. Three different players were all hit by the same volleyball in what the Internet is calling the “triple headshot.” Why do we care? It’s like the Internet is that sadistic kid from Toy Story but somehow, we’re all still watching.
