KD Lang Says Justin Bieber is “Hot as Sh*t!”

Posted by Natalia Buia on November 7th, 2011

Kids, you may not have been around when KD Lang peeked on the Canadian charts with Miss Chatelaine and that’s okay. I’m sure if you asked your parents or grandparents about KD Lang they’ll you she’s a great, openly gay singer.

Having said that, KD appeared on an Australian late night talk show, Rove LA. She sat for an interview with LL Cool J and Michael C. Hall of Dexter. They each had to participate in Questions From a Hat, a segment where they each have to answer a random question out of a hat. A pretty simple task that leads to hilarious results.

LL Cool J had to answer what he thinks Satan’s last name is, while Michael answered if he pees in the shower or not.

When it was KD’s turn, she was asked “Is Justin Bieber hot or not?”

“He looks just like a lesbian so I’m gonna go with HOT AS SH*T!” (This is around the 1:40 mark). What you see after is LL Cool J’s bewildered reaction. It’s a great video to watch if you’re a fan of the Biebs as much as KD is.

LL Cool J Cancels Summer Concerts

Posted by andPOP Staff on June 13th, 2007

Rap superstar LL COOL J has axed his summer tour, citing a mystery family problem.

The announcement was made by organisers of the 15th Annual Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest in Montego Bay, Jamaica, due to take place in July.

The hip-hop star was booked to perform at the event, but has cancelled the date – and told organisers he has scrapped all his summer commitments.

A festival spokesperson said in a statement, “We have just been advised by LL Cool J’s management that due to a family problem, LL Cool J has been forced to cancel all his summer dates and hence he will not be performing at Sumfest.”

Representatives for LL Cool J have yet to confirm the reports, according to AllHipHop.com.

‘CSI’ Creator Taps LL Cool J

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 18th, 2006

Anthony Zuiker, the creator of CBS’ popular crime franchise “CSI,” is teaming up with rapper LL Cool J for a new show.

The two will work together on “The Man,” a series that will see LL Cool J playing an undercover LAPD officer who balances his work with raising three adopted and troubled children.

“We’re going to have a different sting every week, while the children’s stories will be serialized,” Zuiker says of the show, according to Reuters.

Zuiker also said that the role was actually inspired by LL Cool J himself, as he balances life as a popular musician with life as a father of four.

“He can be a talented multiplatinum rapper and an amazing father,” Zuiker said. “He has such an amazing spirit and has a great connection with the audience.”

The first season of the series is currently being written. No possible dates have been announced for its debut.
