JesterLads try to use the force for real as they keep the elevator doors open and prevent the kids of King’s College in London from getting where they want to go. With a wave of a hand, this mysterious jedi knight wows his fellow elevator folks. How did he do it? Watch to find out!
It’s no secret that Will Smith is probably the coolest guy out there who can pretty much do anything—anything but soccer, that is.
Will was in London and his son Jaden were in London to promote their latest film After Earth on Saturday. While there, they took part in one of the city’s favourite pastimes and kicked around the old football (soccer to us North American folk). Taking part in The Ultimate Champions Match in London, the pair were given the opportunity to practice their penalty kick skills. They got 10 kicks but only managed one goal (Ouch!).
The video shows Will completely missing the ball at one attempt and Jaden having a bit more luck as he managed to just make contact with the ball but was blocked from scoring.
Poor Will. You can clearly hear the person filming laughing at his expense. Look, we can’t be good at everything right? Will is after all the ”King of Swag” in my opinion (sorry, Justin Bieber) because he is The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air! It doesn’t get cooler than that!

The boys of One Direction have finally met their match as they helped to unveil their new Madame Tussauds wax figures on Thursday.
The boys got a little silly as they were posing with their wax counterparts in London, England with Liam Payne opting to pick the nose of his new friend.
The boys also tweeted this from their group account:
1D waxworks have hit @madamtussauds! If you’re off to London we want to see your pics of the (waxy) guys. 1DHQ x twitter.com/onedirection/s…

Beliebers everywhere have brought an awful lot of hate on the pop princess Selena Gomez after she ditched the singer and broke his young heart into a million little pieces…or something like that. And now they are enraged again because they believe she is taking another stab at her ex.
She posted a video of her and her friends dancing to Dustin Tavella’s ‘Everybody Knows (Your Boyfriend is a Douchebag). Now, Selena’s groups of friends post videos dancing to other people’s songs all the time, but some people are saying the video is her response to Justin’s recent string of scandals in London.
I’m going to give Selena the benefit of the doubt. She seems like she’s just having a good time, and was not trying to be malicious. What young 20-something doesn’t love having a dance party with their friends?
Check out the video below:
There’s always two sides of every story, and poor Justin Bieber always seems to be on the wrong end of it all.
We all know growing up is never easy, let alone in the spotlight. The Canadian pop star could probably tell us tons of paparazzi horror stories. If he hadn’t already written his first autobiography, I’m sure he could’ve filled those pages with high speed car chases down California’s Pacific Coast Highway.
In the TMZ video floating around, it appears as Justin Bieber purposefully hit the filming paparazzi as he was making his way to the car. It apparently was the hit that caused the pap to fling insults at the pop star and in turn, caused the Biebs to burst out in his own tirade of curse words. But in this alternative angle, it looks like Bieber was just simply trying to make his way through the scrum of photographers and cameramen waiting outside of his hotel room.
Bieber’s little outburst was probably a culmination of all the things that went wrong during his time in London—from his worst birthday ever to being booed earlier this week.
So, was the pap just over-exaggerating to get Biebs to react? Watch the video below and let us know what you think!
I’m sure you’ve heard that Justin Bieber had collapsed on stage last night in London. Poor him, probably overworking himself (it was his third show in a row at the O2 arena) and is under a lot of stress especially with what the media’s been saying lately. However, being so dedicated to the fans, he decided to pull through and finish the rest of his concert before rushing to the hospital.
However, all is fine, and he’s better now. He tweeted his progress while thanking the fans and also posted a shirtless picture on Instagram, with the caption: “Gettin better listening to Janice Joplin“. Never have I ever been so jealous of a hospital bed before.
But wait – what? I did not know that Justin Bieber listened to Janice Joplin. Who would’ve thought? I would’ve expected him to listen to something around his genre, maybe some Michael Jackson, or even old school NKOTB. But I wouldn’t blame him, Janice Joplin’s music does contain some kind of magic in it. Maybe it’s the reason that he healed so quickly? All jokes aside, I’m really glad that Justin’s feeling better now. He has his fourth show in the O2 Arena tonight, so let’s hope nothing drastic happens. We wouldn’t want you to collapse again. But seriously Justin, take a break sometime.
If not for your health, maybe your safety. Those paps haven’t been so kind to you lately. Read more…
It seems like today is the day for big name Hollywood health problems.
Justin Bieber was performing in London again this evening when, halfway through the show, he started experiencing difficulty breathing on stage, and according to eye-witnesses, even collapsed on stage!
But, being the trooper that he is, Justin somehow managed to finish the performance (against his doctor’s advice). His rep released a statement saying,
“He got oxygen from emergency personnel. He insisted on finishing the show. He is on his way to the hospital right now.”
He really must love his beliebers!! Let’s hope nothing is seriously wrong. I can’t bear to think about that beautiful face of his in pain.
YouTube cutie Peter Bamforth put a disposable camera in a box and left it in various downtown locations around London. Inside the box, he wrote the message “Take a Photo,” hoping to document a day London.
The results were pretty impressive and might restore your faith in humanity just a little. While some people just walked by and ignored his project, others were genuinely interested and took photos of each other. Shockingly, no one stole the camera, which I guess isn’t that crazy since it was just a disposable.
By the end of the day, families couples and friends all had a laugh, despite the freezing weather.

While it seems that Chris Brown has gotten away from his past with awards, Grammy performances and praise for his comeback, there are clearly people who still think about his history of domestic violence.
This past week, a photograph went viral when a shopper shot an image of Brown’s ‘Fortune’ CDs at a London HMV store with a sticker that read, “Warning: Do not buy this album! This man beats women.”
Noticing that that the stickers were probably put up by someone who walked into the store, a rep for HMV has told E! News that the company was made aware of the incident and took immediate action.
“It was very much an isolated incident and nothing to do with HMV or representing our views,” the rep said “It would appear a member of the public popped into one of our stores yesterday and stickered a handful of CDs. These were spotted and quickly removed, but, before we could act, the individual concerned must have taken a photo and sent it to the media. To our knowledge there are no further stickers in our stores now.”
Brown, who assaulted his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, has since been taking steps to control his behaviour. And it appears that Rihanna has moved on as well. With the two of them caught smooching at the VMAs, this relationship continues to be a large part of media speculation.
But as ballsy it might have been to put up the stickers, I’m glad there are still people trying to make others aware of what Brown did in the past.
While he may be forgiven by many, I’m still no fan of the double standard Hollywood puts upon its stars. While Brown continues to be lauded with awards and positive attention, Kristen Stewart on the other hand, just can’t catch a break because she cheated on her boyfriend.
Come on. This is A+ sexism right there, Hollywood.
Usain Bolt had one job to do going into the Olympics and that was to defend his title as the world’s fastest man. While he has since proven himself after dominating in the men’s 100m, 200m and the 4x100m relay, the track star REALLY took it to the next level when he celebrated like a champion.
Hamming it up for the crowd, the media and the viewers back home, some may call Bolt’s celebratory regime a bit over the top. But hey, if you’ve just proven yourself to be THIS naturally gifted, I guess it’s better to savour the moment while you’re at it.
Though many of us may never get the chance to run as fast as Usain Bolt, we all know how good it feels to win. So if you’re ever presented with the wonderful opportunity of winning the biggest competition of your life (an eating contest, a Super Smash Bros. tournament, etc.), here’s a step-by-step guide to celebrate just like the world’s fastest man on the planet.
1. Kiss the track (or the ground you’re standing on)
2. Celebratory push-ups (although it’s not like you’ve just proven your greatness)
Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney has a lot to be proud of these days. Along with being the 2011 World Vault Champion she won a gold AND silver medal at the Olympics. However, Maroney didn’t look all that impressed at the medal ceremony for women’s vault after she fell during her second performance.
It was only a matter of time before her less-than-pleased expression was turned into a meme, by 28-year-old New Yorker Gavin Aloen. He created a page on Tumblr called McKayla Is Not Impressed and it rocks. [Source]
Here are some of our faves:

Victoria Abraham defines one up and coming artist each week so you can impress your friends with your musical brilliance. This week, she tackles AlunaGeorge, a duo from London, England.
If you’re into musical pairs where each half perfectly complements the other while remaining distinct, then AlunaGeorge are just the two for you. This duo offers an eclectic mix of UK garage, R&B and pop. Basically they are an indie R&B band, which means they are the best kind of oxymoron. Plus they have British accents.
Band members: Aluna Francis and George Reid
Known for: These Brits are known for George’s clear-cut production style and Aluna’s squeaky, contagious voice.
Used in a sentence: AlunaGeorge are a delicious musical hybrid that will make you press the repeat button again and again.
Download now: “You Know You Like It”
File next to: Noosha Fox, Dirty Projectors
Fast facts: Aluna once worked as a tiler for her friend, while George used to be part of the band Colour. The two met on the Internet while working on separate projects and their musical union was forged when George remixed “Sweetheart” featuring Aluna’s vocals. Even though they met on the Internet, they don’t have a Wikipedia page.

I know I already mentioned it here, but I really love the Olympics. It’s such a fantastic way to build communities across the country, and for athletes and spectators to learn more about other countries. Also, how many times can you say you just watched someone’s dreams come true? Because that’s exactly what happens when you watch someone win gold. It’s amazing!
It must be mentioned that an added bonus is just how gorgeous these athletes are. They’re all ripped and look like Greek gods. Seriously, IT’S LIKE THEIR BODIES WERE SCULPTED BY ZEUS HIMSELF. I already married five Olympics athletes in my imagination, including Australian swimmer James Magnussen (wedding registry at the imaginary Crate and Barrel down the street).
One of the standout athletes making many hearts aflutter has to be diver Tom Daley. The 18-year-old from Great Britain is already a celebrity in his own country as his charms and looks match his diving skills. Just in case you haven’t seen enough of Daley, here’s a video from back in February as he and fellow Team GB diving members dance to LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know It.”
With the Olympics undergo, we’ve already had quite the share of hilarious moments from parent’s reactions. Remember Aly Raisman? Her parents seemed like they kinda had to pee mixed with being on a roller coaster as she was doing her thing.
Most recently, Michael Phelps was competing in the 200-metre butterfly when the camera panned over to his mother in the stands. I guess she was so used to him scooping up all those gold medals, that she got a little ahead of herself and reacted as if he won first place! Awkward… I mean silver is still amazing and something him and Team USA should be proud of. Chad le Clos ended up taking home the gold! I kinda feel bad for her but what can you do? Phelps currently holds the record with the most medals, having 19.

There are moments in every parents’ life when they’re so utterly proud of their child and anticipating a big event so much that watching them tackle a huge life step is like watching a high-action movie. Of course, I’m not a parent but I can only assume it was like that for the parents of USA gymnast Aly Raisman, who look like they’re on a roller coaster ride as they watch their daughter perform at the 2012 London Olympics. D’aw, parents looking slightly crazy on camera because they love their kid so much — that’s true love people.
Being signed to Roc Nation, you know you’re going to have a tight family in the music biz. Rita Ora’s single, “How We Do (Party),” is taking over the world and she dishes out to @Jordans_Life on what it was like meeting Jay-Z for the first time at only 18, and the feeling you get in his presence. She’s already accomplished so much at only 21 considering she started off singing in bars around London (where she wasn’t even old enough to get in), and went onto opening up for Coldplay. It must take a lot to prepare for a huge show of 20,000 people, but she says she doesn’t really think about it.

The recent British invasion of musicians has come with The Wanted, Cher Lloyd, One Direction, Conor Maynard — the list goes on. One female 90s group in particular that made all the girls feel like they had ‘GIRL POWER’ is the Spice Girls and they’re reuniting, but probably only for one night.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the Spice Girls are expected to re-unite to perform at the London 2012 Olympics closing ceremony. During a radio interview earlier this week, Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham said, “I don’t know about a comeback tour, but I loved being back with the girls. We are very excited about the Olympics.” If the reports are true (we are totz crossing our fingers about this) the gals will join George Michael, Jessie J, Take That and The Who.
The group recently reunited in London to launch Viva Forever! a new musical based on their hit songs that is set to be out at the end of the year. Hopefully it goes worldwide because there is no way I am missing this!
I feel like it’s my birthday because we received extraordinary Spice Girls news today that I’m sure you already heard about because it’s all over the internet and was trending on Twitter (aka if you haven’t heard about it for SHAME).
The Spice Girls reunited in London to launch Viva Forever! a new musical based on their hit songs. The show will open on December 11 in London, but we hope they mozy on over to North America stat. The musical is meant to introduce a new generation to Girl Power and explores the bitter reality of fame brought on by a TV talent show. That’s pretty topical, no?
In celebration, we decided to pull out a couple of our favourite Spice Girls gifs. Check them out below.
We’re totally not getting the logic behind this one. Justin Bieber won Villain of the Year at the 2012 Kerrang! Awards in London. He did pull out the Silence of the Lambs mask this week but despite that skulled covered he’s basically as gentlemanly as one can get.
Other people that were nominated for the award included Simon Cowell (okay we understand this one) Ronnie Radke of Falling in Reverse, Lou Reed and One Direction. One Direction is pretty much the epitome of buttoned-up prepsters with dimpled smiles and fluffy hair so we’re not sure how malicious they are.
I think they were a little off in this one.
I mean, look at him perform on Germany’s Next Top Model. He just wants to take care of you.
When this couple left London to travel the world, they spent three weeks in rural Cambodia teaching English. While they were there, they decided to set the kids up for a challenge.
Teaching them how to say the hardest word in the English language, here is an adorable video of the kids learning how to say Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
